C. H. YOUNG REPEATS
Again Attacks Roosevelt at Com.
mercial Travellers League.

| Charles II. Young, former president ot
the Republican Club spoke yesterday noon
before the Commercial Travellers League
! st Great Jones street and Broadway. In the
/ course of his speech Mr.. Young advocated
the election of John A Dix as Governor.
Mr. Young has heretofore always been a
Republican.
At the beginning of his address Mr..
Young said he had not changed his policies,
but that his party's policies were now
framed by one man. and twisted so de-
viously that he was unable to follow them.
In New York. he said. he was told 70
honor the United States Supreme Court. as
directed by the party platform. but in the
West its mistakes were pointed out 10 him,
and this confused him between the plat
form and the platfornn-maker.
Mr.. Young said that he was further con-
fused by the voice as heard in Indiana and
as heard in Massachusetts, because in In
diana he was urged TO reverence Beveridge
who stands for everything that Lodge. of
Massachusetts opposed, and in Massa-
chusetts he was urged to support Lodge.
who differed with Beveridge, of Indiana, on
every public question.
The American people, Mr.. Young pointed
out. often mistake a demagogue for d
demigod, but reflection taught that vocifer-
alton and vanity did not constitute virtue
or destroy vice. and that ambition of itself
would remedy no political ills.
Mr.. Roosevelt, in preaching had been eio-
quent said Mr.. Young. but in practice had
hardly lived up to his texts. II had only
recently been discovered, he said, that Mr.
Roosevelt had -rceived large sums of
money from the late (. H. Hartman and
others, and that he failed to take advantage
of evidence brought before him by which
certain trusts could have been convicted
He was not builder, but destroyer, and
the trusts which contributed to his cam
paign fund were fiourishing amazingly
II Mr.. Dix is elected on November 3, ac-
cording TO Mr.. Young, the check on honest
business will be gone because the fear Of
Roosevelt will likewise have gone.
