Hedges and his associates on the Re-
publican State ticket received formal
notification of nomination in the Re
publican Club. under the shadow OF
a big oil painting of Colonel Theo-

audience.
Altogether there were not $50 men
present, and not a Taft button was
In sight. Chairman Barnes camG
around and saw that proper arrange
ments were made, but left a few min
utes before Senator Bracket tolls
Hedges of his nomination.
Mr.. Hedges made an earnest APP
peal to Republicans to point out that
he would be his own governor, lis
tening to the Republican party and
using it as the instrument by which
to carry out his policies of admins
t~ration, yet acting upon his own i'm
pulses and decisions.

DEMOCRAT TO
WORK FOR JOB HEDGES

NEW YORK, Oct. S.-Delos Nc
Curdy, a well-known lawyer, who for
many years was an adviser of the
Democratic organization in the State
and city, has come out for Hedges for
governor. He has been attracted by
the open way in which Mr.. Hedges
has made his fight for the governor
ship.
"We have seen you," writes Mr..
McCurdy to the candidate, tand
know that you are thoroughly quail
fed, mentally and morally. to be our
governor. Possessed. as you are. of
intimate personal knowledge of the
governmental affairs of this city.
with you as our governor we can, I
think, prevent the recurrence of the
hideous mismanagement and conse-
quent crimes that have made the ex-
listing government of our city a
shame and a disgrace to civilization

# NAVY N THE SCHOOL CHILDREN.

m Ii school children living in New York and in the COM
IN munities embraced in the metropolitan area should be
given the chance to see the splendid naval pageant in the
Hudson. 1t would not only be educational, but would give to the
children a vivid idea of the power and greatness of their country.
Tbey would be enabled to look out of their little environments
and see what there is beyond them in national life, what the
word American means. TO thousands of bright children the
snectacle would be the inspiration of their lives. 1t would make
mnressions on their minds the effect of which would be seen
IN the development of their characters. And all children would
,mbibe from it pride in country, a love for their countrys flag.
The ships are assembling in the Hudson for a great objectlesson.
Why should.not the school children be especially favoredY

"save the Motordrome."

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
] notice there is a paper being cir
culated to obtain signatures for tbs
closing, abolition or removal of the
Motordrome in Vailsburg. 1t seems
to be the outcome of some of the
bourgeois improvement associations.
which always has an axe of its WI
to grind, plus some church folks
whose idea of justice consists in le-
CALLING what they want to do anu
penalizing what they do not want
others to do. According to the ablest
authorities, who were selected TO
investigate the catastrophe last
month, the reports or findings We're
of a most favorable character. both
as to construction and m-anagemenp
of same, and hat a repetition of a
like fatality would hardly happen
again. But this is not my main con-
tention. Has there been any offer
made to reimburse OF pay for the
removal or rebuilding of another
track? l believe not. Those persons
who had the M~otordrome built Ger
tainly complied with the laws for this
construction of the same. They seem
to have broken none of the statute
laws in any respect. So | say IL a
certain class of people want the Mos
tordrome sport suppressed or res
moved to another vicinity, let these
people pay for their desires. AS YOU
would not a another to confiscats
Nyour property. don't you confiscate
theirs. 1t is an easy matter to get
signatures for most anything. j know
of some persons who have signed
their names TO these petitions who
have no interest in this affair at all.
In fact, they live in quite another
part of the city and seldom, if ever,
visit Vailsburg. 1t would surprise
me If all the signers knew there was
such a place as Vailsburg. Again let
me say, let us have fair play in this
matter. If there are any persons
who wish the Motordrome removed
or abolished let them pay for it.

Bull Moose party leaders here when
nomination papers of candidates for

WOMEN REGISTERING

There has. been much speculation
over the question of women register

to just what will De accomplished
by getting registration certificates.
Newspaper articles have been sent
out by the press OF various cities
of the state announcing that many
women were registering and this
has aroused interest here. NsarAy
believed that women would be en-
titled to vote on some state prob
lens, especially on the capital loca-
ton proposition, and the matter has
created no little excitement.
County Attorney John Adams sets
all speculation in this regard at
rest by stating that the only g'T-
pose for which Tomen can register
is to qualify them for voting at the
spring elections for members OF the
school boards. The law gives wom
en- this right to vote in Oklahoma,
and as a prerequisite to such vot-
ing, requires that they shall register
ana the grandfather Flaw applies to
women as well as TO men in all
registrations for voting and no
farther.
