an audience that filed every corner of
Madison Square Garden, received the
greatest ovation Of his campaign for the
presidency. Entering the hall at Oil
pm. after speaking before an enthusiast
tic audience IN the Bronx the democratic
candidate stood for an hour and three
minutes at the railing of the speakers
platform, waiting for the demonstration
to end.

demonstration such as We have wit

deep feeling, as he finally made HIM
self heard; ''yet I am the more thrilled
because i realize it is a demonstration
for cause, and not for a man.
Impossible to Control.
Starting with the first shouts from the
doorway, when Gov. Wilson arrived by
automobile from the Bronx meeting. the
Madison Square Garden outburst defed
his utmost efforts to quell 1t. The gov
ernor's motion for quiet brought only re-
newed cheers. Chants of I'VE want Will

women. who forced their way to the
front of the speakers stand, and inspired
the crowd to fresh efforts.
Gov. Wilson had spoken but a few
minutes. and was declaring that the pro-
gressiye party, wherever 1t could cap
ture the regular republican organization,
was regular. and wherever 1t could not,
was Irregular, when a man in the
middle aisle of the hall. directly beneath
the speakers stand, shouted:
Governor, talk about the Baltimore
platform"
Disturber Is Ousfed
Cries Of Put him OUT, came from all
parts of the hall, and three policemen
grabbed the disturber and rushed him to
a doorway. Gov Wilson leaned over the
rail and called to the police Don't put
anybody out" but the man was elected.
1T is inconvenient to have more than

governor of New York. preceded Gov.
Wilson at Madison Square Garden Mr.
Underwood had continued but a few min

gave way before the demonstration for

Choice Will Be Vital.
Government is an enterprise of man
kind-not of parties said Gov Wilson.
LAS election day approaches I have a
greater and greater feeling of satisfac-
ton. because 1 know that the American

vital choices of their lives. From one
ocean to the other men are becoming
aware that in less than a week the COM
mon people of America will come into
their own.
II know from the reports coming from
all parts Of the country that the new
party has not come from the democrats.
Therefore 1t must be made up of those
republicans who are dissatisfied with the
regular organization and its avowed pur-
pose and programs.
'.AIl men have to do is to realize that
the common enterprises of life are the
enterprises Of politics; that a man Is not
voting an abstract political creed, but is
voting program of justice and of right
when he votes at the polls. Now. If You
want that program. what are You going
to do next Tuesday,"
Vote for Wilson, interrupted a voice.
and there was great applause.
Appeals for Support.
Il appreciate the compliment contin.

That unless you people put yourselves into
Wilson he won't be worth anything. The
one thing that will set reform for

a united government, and a united co.

House Of Representatives. OF President
and of something that in my time the
people have not yet captured-a Senate
And ii consists of something more. II
YOU have democratic government at
Washington, and do not have a demo-
cratic government In the state, you have
no conducting medium by which to signal
to Washington.
You have got to have a vital organiza

United States in order that great bodies
of men may unite together for the great
project of emancipation, and the only
possible chance of having a great united
organization after March 4 next Is to
