Chicago, Sept. %16. - Throughout
Ohio and Indiana. Governor Woodrow
Wilson did some impromptu cam
paigning today that was as vigorous
as II was unexpected.
No previous arrangements had been
made for speeches and the train
schedule was twisted by delay in the
early day, but crowds gathered along
the route and Governor Wilson made
nearly a dozen speeches from his car.
He replied to Senator Beveridge. of
Indiana, who charged. in recent
speech, that Governor Wilson, If
elected, would be boss controlled.

Mayor Ficke. af Logansport. Ind
boarded the train and told Mr.. Will
son about Senator sBeveridges speech
so that when the democratic candi-
date reached Logansport. he hit at
Beveridge to a. large. crowd.

Il am sorry to observe that whereas
the republican party has practically
fostered the trusts. and the demo-
cratic party proposes to prevent mo-
nopoly in this country, the third party. |
represented by Senator Beveridge, !
proposes to take the monopoly into
partnership with the government hv |
accepting it as an inevitable necessity |
and bringing it under the regulation I
or law--that is to say, making it a
legali2ed institution OF the country.
And wnen the men who have ere
