 THROUGH NEW ENGLAND
By ROBERT LEE CARTIER

New York. October 2s.-(Special.)- Col John P. Mosby is preparing to rzid New England. and if he succeeds ia cleaning up Yankee land to his sstis- faction the famous leader will swing around to the west and may get as far ss Chicago before he returns to the Virginia mountains with the spells Of The raid.
 The colonel win not have any of his hard riding hard fighting troopers with him on this excursion He will play a lone hand
 The purpose of the raid is to tell the Yankees just how Mosby and his many men did 1t to them back in the eos. He Is, I understand, to get s200 a lecture, and it will be well worth twice the money if the colonel can talk a quarter as well as he used to fight. I have not heard when he will start on his lecture tour. but 1t will be soon.
 Two wellknown southerners are running for Congress in New York this year, one on the democratic ticket and the other on the republican ticket, and the chances are against either go- ing to Washington. For Martin ". Litleton, the democrat, Is tunning in Colonel Roosevelts own district, which is strongly republican, while Samuel B. Thomas, formerly of Waco, Texas, is to beat Francis Burton Harrison in a strong democratic district
 While neither is over confident of election, they are both having all sorts of a grand time campai gnfng.

 'If the nomination of Colonel Roose- welt by the republicans depends upon his ability to carry a single state, the mem bers of that party opposed to MT. Roose- velt's need have no fear of his nomina- tion," says George L. Martin of Atlanta MT. Martin for 20 years had been a member of the North Carolina general as- sembly. Although his present term has not expired he now is a resident o1 Atlanta, to which city he recently re- moved.
 T was in Atlanta the day Colone Roosevelt made his recent speech" con- tinued MT. Martin, land the man certain 1y was given a most renar kable ovation
 It rained but the crowd that turned ou, to hear him was very large. But while many people of the south are taken with the personal magnetism of the man and like to hear him speak, 1t ic quite diff. ferent proposition to consider him as their candidate. Of all who heard him and assisted in making his appearance there the spectacular thing It was. I believe that not a man except those who ordi- rarily vote the republican ticket would support him. and 1t is doubtful even Ii he could get the total republican vote of Georgia It is one thing to cheer and applaud and quite another to give the re- cipient of this adulation ones suffrage.
