4 Many Orators.
Both campaign committees sent out
a host of orators. The republicans
had the assistance beside Colonel
Roosevelt, of Secretaries Wilson and
Nagel of President Taft,s cabinet and
of Vice President Sherman.
The Independence league is one of
the uncertainties of the campaign. The
league has confined its speaking cam
spaign almost entirely to New York
city and expects to poll a big vote here.
If arguments advanced by William
Randolph Hearst on the stump and in
his newspapers avail, this vote will
work it's greatest harm to Mr. Dix
for the league leader from the first

cratic candidates labor record. In his

0e Clear Cut.
THE issues of the campaign are
now clear cut. On our side we stand
for progress, carrying out the policies
of the administration of Governor
Hughes. We stand for an efficient
state government, doing it's duty to
the individual citizen and standing as
the surest safeguard against undue
federal extension. We believe in keep
ing the public service corporations
out of politics and regulating them
in the interests of the citizen and the
public.
I'VE believe in the more efficient
administration of our labor laws; in
better protection of the lives and
limbs of our Workmen in our factories |
! and upon our railroads; in more eff
ficient child labor laws; in the work.

We believe that the state has a pos
ltive duty to help the Workingman,
not only against physical accident,
but by giving him better chance in
life with better hours and better
working conditions.
Against us are arrayed the forces |
of reaction. Their organs boast that
we are without funds and tae Glenn

Thisameans that we are fighting the
battle of the individual citizen and
depend on his vote. and that behind
our opponents are certain powerful
interests which have a distinct ad-
vantage in Q loose and inefficient state
government. The campaign of our
opponents on state issues has COL
lapsed. Mr.. Dix, who began with a |

travagance of the republican admin

any specifications to these charges.

ITO cover this collapse upon the
real issues of the campaign, he is now
trying to ride into office by appeal |
ing to the discomfort of the people
arising out of the increase in the cost |
Of living. He charges this suffering
to the trusts andsthe tariff and seeks
to lay on my party the responsibility
of these evils. l am willing that the
people should judge between Mr.. Dix
and me even on this false issue. I |
lay before them my record in fighting
against the encroachments of special
! privilege. |
