rRv Telegraph TO The Tribune !

Sea Girt. y. J.. Aug. ll.-Senator

hal a long talk with Governor wilson
over plans for the campaign, after whioH'
he told the newspaper men that. whlle
the Democrats were confident that Wilson
would be elected. they would not take any
chance Of either Colonel Roosevelt or
President Taft beating them.
Senator Gore is chairman of the com

he sounded created a deep impression
here. The Oklahoma man. who was Gov
ernor Wilson's only visitor to-day, be-
lieves that Mr. Roosevelt Is the candi-
date that Governor Wilson has most TO
fear After leaving Governor Wilson
Senator Gore said:
The conditions of the campaign are
very gratifying. but l consider that II is
reason we are going to conduct very
vigorous and spirited campaign.
There are two blundcrs that are very
easy 10 make. One is to overestimate
your own strength, and the other is 10
underestimate the strength OF your op-
ponent We are not going to do either
Asked as TO his conference with SEN
stor Gore, Governor Wilson said.
1t was almost entirely a social cali.
but we naturally wandered off into a
discussion Of a number Of questions OF
organization and campaigning. Absolutely

the Democrats being on the anti -PTohibi-
ton side. They want local option, SO that
the voters of the large cities can decide
for themselves whether they want liquor
sold under license.
The chief document they are using for
their side is letter sent by Governor
Wilson to the Rev Thomas X. Shannon
relating TO the recent Texas campaign in
which the Democratic candidate for
President states empha tically that he Is
for local option. This letter. which is
being sent broadcast throughout Maine,
is In part as follows:
l am in favor of local option ! am a
thorough believer In local self govern
ment and believe that every self-govern-
unit should have The right 10 control the
matter Of the regulation or the with
holding OF license.
Bin the questions involved are social
and moral and are not susceptible Of be-
ing made parts Of party programme.
Whenever they have been made the sub
iect matter OF party contests they have
cut the lines OF party organization and
party action athwart to the utter con-
fusion of political action In every other
field. They have thrown every other
question. however important. into the
back ground and have made constructive
party action impossible for long years TO-
gether. So Tar as ] am myself concerned,
therefore, | can never consent to have
the question Of local option made an issue
between political parties In this state.

But from early morning until nightfall
the crowds gathered at the railroad
stations and cheered enthusiastically.
The Governor in all rode els miles
through Pennsylvania, and when night
came he was tired and hoarse. At
Lancaster, Harrisburg and Williams
Grove, Reading, Allentown and Eas-
ton, great crowds jammed the railroad
yards and the Governor competed in
his talks with the noise of locomotives
and trains.
At handshaking as we'll as back plat
form stamping the Governor had a
strenuous time. A brawny blacksmith
wrung the Governors hand so hard at
Williams Grove that for moment the
nominee dropped his right hand Imply

The Governor said his hand still panied
him from the experience.
Several thousand people wedged
themselves in the big auditorium at

principal speech, but far more were
unable to gain entrance and the Gov
ernor made second speech out doors.
