La Toilette, followed Governor Wilson,
and asserted that the special interests had
nominated Roosevelt to split up the pro-
gressive movement
Mrs. Wilson and the Misses Wilson sat
in a stage box during the Governors
speech at the Academy
At Convention Hall Governor Wilson
said that wages were not dependent on
the tariff. He said America paid higher
wages than free trade England, and Eng
land paid higher wages than protective
Germany. Therefore, wages and the tariff
had nothing to do with each other
America had been paying higher wages
than the rest of the world, he said ever
since she became separated from England
and she has been paying them because OF
the skill OF the American workingman.
The cost Of labor. he asserted. was a de-
termination Of the skill and capacity OF
the country, and not of it's economic dis
advantage.
Governor Wilson made his first speech
Of the day at West Chester, In the centre
OF the Quaker section OF Pennsylvania,
where he told an audience of about 1,5OO
men, women aad children in the Assembly
Hall that the entire country expected that
the Democratic ticket was going to be
successful and that, as the expectation
grew, the prosperity of the country was
not checked. He also predicted the cleo
ton OF a Democratic House and Senate.
The Governor also spoke at an overflow
meeting at West Chester, in which he
referred In sarcastic terms to the recent
letter of Vice-President Sherman.
A. Mitchell Palmer, Democratic National
Committeeman for Pennsylvania, accom-
panied Governor Wilson on his trip, and
said he was hopeful that the Governor
would carry the state, because of the split
in the Republican ranks brought about by
by the third party. Mr. Palmer placed
the Wilson plurality at 5000, but he was
not quite so sure that this is right. He
said:
While 1 still consider the fight between
Wilson and Roosevelt, President Taft has
gained so rapidly in the last week or two
publicans Of the entire State Of PcnnsyI-
vania, with the exception OF the four
counties OF Schuylkill, Luzerne, Lack
awanna and Carbon, which comprise the
coal regions, are for TAFT. Why. siNty
out of sixty-seven county organizations
are with Taft. We believe. however, that
Colonel Roosevelt will poll big vote In
the coal regions, so big, In fact, as TO
give the state TO Governor Wilson.
Governor Wilson spent the night at the
Bellevue stratford Hotel here, and will go
10 Trenton tomorrow morning He will
speak for the Jim" Smith ticket in
Newark to.norrow night

HITS "SELFISH" BUSINESS
Marshall Condemns Men Who
Live for Trade ONLY.

Roundup, Mont, oct. Ex-Governor
Thomas r. Marshall, Democratic candi-
date for Vice President, wound up his
campaign In Montana with speeches late
to-day AT Harlowtown and Roundup. He
condemned the man who lived for busl-
ness only. saying
My quarrel In this campaign Is not with
the business man, big or little, simply be-
cause he happens to be q business man.
But there is no menace TO the country's
welfare so disastrous as the business man
who will sacrifice every interest of the
Republic in order TO advance his own per-
sonal business affairs.
know Of no character. commercial or
otherwise, so petty as such a man. For
few thousands or hundreds OF thou
sands OF dollars he will sacrifice delib-
erately the best interests of his fellow
countrymen and the interest OF his own
offspring In the unreasonable and ulti-
mately useless pursuit OF dollars. That Is
the man / object to, and you people
should see that he has no part in the
affairs OF our country
Such a man believes that this Republic
was created to permit him to do business.
Also he Seems. 10 think that the President,
the courts, the Congress and the state
legislatures exist for business instead OF
for the welfare and happiness Of ninety
millions OF people.
This is the type Of man whose perniciour
activity in government affairs is speeding
the Republic to crisis that means revo-
luton. Whether the revolution VIII be
peaceable or otherwise ] am not pre-
pared to say. but I want TO say that |
cannot think that all the patriotic blood
spilled from the Brandywine to Appomat-
tox was spilled In vain. Therefore ex-
pect the Republic to endure But the
business man who lives for business and
nothing else must go This nation does
not want him. 49," e..

WOMEN ASK T. R. TO MARCH
Offer Use of Miss Milholland 8
Golden Chariot, If He Cant.

T. r. may have TO march in the SUI
frage parade after ell.
The committee sent him an urgent in
vitation yesterday to come and be In the
parade, any way--even IL he had TO ride
In the golden chariot which will head the
parade, driven by Miss Inez Milholland.
The letter was written by james Lees
Laidlaw. chairman Of the committee. An
early reply is expected.
The committee, in deciding upon this
step, said that IL the colonel was going to
be well enough to speak at Madison
Square Garden tomorrow he would surely
be able TO ride little way In golden
chariot ten days later.
The enrolment booth in the Bowling
Green Building did a rushing business
yesterday. so that at II o'clock the young
and fair maiden who presided over the
pumpkin lanterns and parade pledges had
to send hurry call up 70 headquarters
for more supplies.
She was Miss e Croft, and she came
all the way over from Brooklyn to help
r. G. Beadle, secretary Of the Mem
League, who had charge OF the booth.
Late in the afternoon Miss Croft dis
covered that the beautiful pumpkin Ian
terms were being bought so eagerly not
for use In the suffrage parade. but for
Halloween decorations. Hung over an
electric light they are stunning, and the
clever stenographers who are employed
In the downtown buildings soon caught
on to that fact.
Orders were issued from headquarters
that no more pumpkins are to be sold
until the night Of the parade

lam Jay schienelin, president, and j. u.
Hammitt, secretary, OF the Ciuzens
Union, which has opposed the Depart

Gore the orders were placed on the build

adds:
Furthermore. there Is additional evil
dence OF his use OF his official power 10

propriations. II has come 10 our KNOW
edge that he asked high official OF one

made after the Committee on SAFETY had

No Doubt as to Wilson, He
Saws. After Final Conference.

Members Of the Democratic National
Campaign Committee have been called in
for a final conference with Chairman
William F. McCombs and their sessions
began yesterday. National committee
men from many states, delegation from
Pennsylvania and one from Connecticut,
and leaders and county chairmen from up-
per New York state laid their reports be-
for the committee yesterday.
Democratic success in New York state
ia assured, said Chairman McCombs after
the meeting. and the reports from oil
over the country left no doubt that Gov
ernor Wilson will be elected. A similar
~ pleasing condition prevailed In regard
TO Congress. Mr.. McCombs added.
Senator Claude Swanson. who attended
the conference, declared that the Demo-
cratic party would win the electoral vote
by an overwhelming majority. He said
that Governor Wilson would carry more
than fourths Of the states.
An appeal TO vote for Governor Wilson
and William Sulzer has been made TO
members Of the Brotherhood Of Locomo-
tive Firemen and Engineers by the secre-
tary Of the organization on the ground
that the Democratic state platform con-
tanned a plank proposing that the rail-
road men have representation on rhe Pub
lie Service Commission.
Senator A. o. Bacon, of Georgia, has
been compelled to abandon campaign en-
gagements because Of a severe cold. He

ward University and at various points In
New York state.
In a letter TO Chairman McCombs, made
public yesterday. Isaac Lawrence, presi-
dent OF the American Tariff Reform
League, which Endorsed all Democratic
nominees, declared that II was the con-
viction of the league that unless TAFT

voted the Democratic ticket It would be
impossible for Woodrow Wilson TO receive
a majority OF the electoral votes.
