NOTES ON NATIONAL POLITICS.
Brief Bits of News and Crisp Comment
on Men and Measures.

The Democratic national committed
has received to-day contributions oil
$4,000, of this amount $4,000 came
from the Massachusetts, state commit
tee, to which Mayor Fitzgerald of Bos.
ton contributed $4,000.
Governor Marshall of Indiana arrived
at Omaha, Neb., this morning and left
for Grand Island, where he was TO
speak this afternoon. He will deliver
an address at Kearney tonight.
Republican campaign managers have
presented their first detailed table by
states, showing that $50 votes are now
classed as sure for the Republican ma
tional ticket and 1872 votes are conceded
to Governor Wilson, including California
and South Dakota, where the Roosevelt
men have kept the Taft electoral candi-
dates Off the official ballot. In the
doubtful column, 40 votes have been
placed, including Tennessee and Okla
homa, hitherto regarded as Democratic
states, while in the Taft column Illi-
nois and Missouri are confidently placed.

TAFT GAINS
IN THE EAST

sidered No Longer Doubtful-Pro-
nounced Swing Toward Re-
publican Policies.

New York, Oct lo-Republiean ma
tional headquarters in New York hears
good news from the east Massachus.
etts is counted as safely on Taft's list,
and the chief contest, according TO adj
vices, appears to centre on the legisla-
ture. The national Democrats are avoid
ing the state, hoping to catch the united
vote, which may be split on the senator
ship. Connecticut also reports a strong
turn toward the president and the party
managers regard the state as no longer
doubtful. Governor Wilson, apparently
awakened to conditions, has dropped his
war on Colonel Roosevelt and is center
ing his fire upon the Republican candi-
dates, plan which will tend to solidify
party ranks.
Bull Moose leaders evidently are to be
well protected in future, for when Gov
ernor Johnson. the present leader of the
forces in the field. arrived in Chicago he
was escorted to his hotel by twenty-five
policemen. The chief of police said he
wished to take no chances of an attack
on Colonel Roosevelts running mate
The campaign in New York is becom-
ing lively and interesting; the three can
didates for governor are speaking every
night. Mr.. Hedges says he will remove
the police commissioner of New York
City if he be elected. Congressman Sui
ger points proudly to his work for the
people during his career in Washington
and declares he always has been pro-
gressive. Mr., Strauss also is making an
active campaign and emphasizes especi.
ally the need of a change.

These words, attributed TO Joseph J.
Ettor, leader of the Lawrence textile
strike, were testified to by Bernard Ford
a Boston newspaper man, in the trial
yesterday of Ettor, Arturo Giovannitti
and Joseph Caruso, for the murder of
Anna Lopizzo
Ford told of stirring events on Jan.
30 beginning before daylight, when
crowds of strikers assembled in the
streets, where they hurled ice and other
missiles at street cars, and then at the
militia.
James Il. Donahue, another Boston
newspaper man, said he heard Ettor tell
the strikers to keep the gunshops busy,
at strike headquarters in Lawrence on
Jan. 81. two days before the death of
Anna Lopizzo. He also referred to re-
marks of Ettor concerning the French
revolution, when he spoke of "the heads
of the masters hung from the lampposts
