Good roads. the continued conservation
. human life and of our natural re-
sources and the constant improvement OF
cur waterways appeal to me now, as they
have in the past, and Will have my ear
rsst support and constant attention. we
know good roads enhance the value OF
farm lands and add untold wealth to the
PRODUCERS and consumers or the country.
Since leaving Plattsburg this morning
Mr.. sulzer has traversed the stronghold
Of Republicanlsm in this state. but he
declared tonight II was one Of the most
satisfactory DAYS he had yet had. He
wa, assured by the local managers that
the Democratic prospects in this section
were never brighter.
Deputy Commissioner Norris. OF She
Excise Department who boarded the
train at Antwerp. declared that the Pro-
sressves would eat up Is per cent Of the
Republican vote, and County Chairman
Hanna. al Ogdensburg, was certain the
Democrats had never been so solidly
united since 1915.
Only Two Ambitions.
The candidate told the people at Car
thage. where he spoke to 800 listeners IN
the Opera House, that he had had only
two ambitions in his life, first, to be
Governor. and, second, to own farm In
the state OF New York. He continued:
1
!, and when my term is over l nope
shall have saved enough 70 buy farm'
perhaps in Jefferson County
His running mate rose to the occasion
when the cheers which followed Mr.. Sui
ser's address had subsidized. Leaning over
the edge Of the platform, as II to take
the audience into his confidence, he said;
Besides being an editor, as our candi-
date for Governor has told you, / own
small farm. When Mr.. Sulzer has fin
ished being Governor, I'll sell him my
farm.
Adding that his desire to dispose Of the
farm ives not due to his dislike Of farm
life. but to the fact that II now cost too
much to run ore, Mr.. Glynn turned the
Quip into an attack on the Republicans
for increasing the cost Of living.
The Ogdensburg meeting was enlivened
by woman, who. Just after Mr.. Sulzer
had remarked that, as an unbeaten can
dldate, he had no fears for his election,
inquired how he stood on the liquor ques-
ton.
VIII you please repeat that7' request
cd the candidate.
Il say" repeated the woman. how do
you stand on the state being half drunk
and half soberf'
Madame" declared the candidate,
there Is no man in the public life Of
America to-day who typifes more than
90 personal liberty under the law"
Glynn Attacks Taft,
Mr., Glynn attacked President Taft be-
fore the same audience, saying that when
he fought for Canadian reciprocity he
said the tsriff raised the price Of living,
and the other day in an interview he
made the opposite assertion.
At the close Of the Ogdensburg meeting
Mr. sulzer laid a wreath on the grave OF
General Curtis. tho hero Of Fort Fisher,
Across the top Of the state Mr.. Sulzer
was introduced by Senator D. b. Lucey
who succeeded his late Republican part
ner, George r. Malby, In the upper mouse
Of the Legislature. While his audiences
were good, 1t was remarked that more
than half of them in most places were
composed Of school children. The can
didate took notice Of this at the hrst
meeting Of the morning. at Rouse's Point,
by shaking hands with all the small girls
among his listeners and expressing the
hope that they might all grow up to
marry good husbands.
Il was here that the candidate MADE
his first mention Of Temmany since ne
left New York, saying:
When they tell you that am Tam
many man. you answer that l am
Democrat, an old-fashioned Democrat, q
yenersonlan Democrat, progressive
Democrat

teaugay, Malone, Norwood, DeKalb juno
