Addresses Dollar Dinner of Wilson WOrkingmen's
 League
EXPLAINS VIEWS
 ON IMMIGRATION
The Nominee Is Very Much Pleased at the Result of Vote in Yer m0nt-Declares It Is
 Encouraging

New York, September 4.--Gov. Wood- Tow Wilson spoke for the first time tonight in New York city as the dem- ocratic nominee for the presidency. His first political address in tho metropolis was delivered at the dollar dinner of the Woodrow Wilson Workingmen' league.
 Before going to the dinner he met two score editors of foreign language newspapers at the National Arts club and talked immigration to them.
 If we can hit upon a standard which admits every voluntary immigrant" he said, "and excludes those who have not come of their own motion with their own purpose of making a home and a career for themselves but have been induced by steamship companies or others to come in order to pay the passage money, then we will have what we will all agree upon as Americans.
 For I am not speaking to you in foreign country. l am speaking to you as also Americans with myself and just as much Americans as myself, and if we all take the American point Of
 
 life kept to It's standards. and that the only standards of American life shall be the standards of restriction, then we are all upon a common ground, not of those who criticise immigration but of those who declare themselves Amer leans.
 T am not saying that I am wise enough out of hand to frame the legis- lation that will meet this ideal. l am only saying that that is the ideal and that is what we ought to hold our selves to.
 His Only Blunder
 Now, strange as itmay seem to some gentlemen who have criticised me, the only blunder l have made. the only practical blunder l have made in my interest in a liberal policy with re gard to immigration Is that l got into the wrong society to encourage il, So that 1t was an indiscretion of judE- ment and not an indiscretion of pur- pose, for my interest in immigration is to see that the immigrant is prop erly informed, is properly safeguard ed against imposition of every kind whether by the government or anybody else and is directed to the place where he can attain the objects he has come for with the greatest advantage to him. self That to my mind is the solution of the immigr ntion quest.1h
 Of course if the immigrants are to be allowed to come in uninstructed hosts and to stop at the ports where they enter and there to compete in an over-supplied labor market. there is going to he unhappiness, there is going to be deterioration, there is going to be everything that Will be detrimental to the community as well as detrimental to the immigrant. And there fore it is to the interest of the govern ment that the government itself should supply or at any rate encourage the in- strumentalties which will prevent that very thing. Multiplying the ports of en- try for that purpose, for example, will ease and facilitate and guide the process of distribution, and will above all things also supply the sympathetic information which is the only welcome that is aceep- table to those who come.''

 He asserted that the reactj Dos of both parties were now turr o the democratic candidate. Color 0 :, ,osevelt also called for speedy dowr o . revision of the tariff and denoun< .e Payne Aldrich tariff law as conta ng "shams and humbugs."
 The ex-President's speech was made at the close of hard days campaign through Iowa. He began at o'clock and kept at it with little rest until he left tonight for St. Paul. Five speeches were scheduled for the journey through the state from Keokuk to Des Moines, but the colonel was called upon for twice that number. finding crowds awaiting him wherever his train stopped.
 There's no eight hours on this job" he sighed, as he entered his car after making a speech not on the programme. The heat was oppressive and the colo nefs face was streaming, but he was
 
 Crowds which heard him were large and enthusiastic
 Crowds Greet T. K.
 When Colonel Roosevelt reached Des Moines several thousand persons were massed at the station. He made his way to his automobile through a struggling cheering crowd and started out at the head of parade through the city to the convention hall All along the way the streets were crowded and the colonel was cheered constantly. When he reached the convention hall he was the object Of tumultuous demonstration Just be {. fore leaving for his train tonight he made an address to throng which filled the street in front of his hotel
 The convention ball was the warmest of all the places in which Colonel Roose- welt spoke and most of the delegates had reached the boiling point by the time tho colonel arrived. The men were in tlieIr shirt sleeves, and hundreds of palm lear fans were fiuttering.
 Take off your coat, Teddy" some of the delegates called out when the colonel rose to begin his speech. Take off your coat and sail in."
 The colonel hesitated a moment anl then declined
 Maybe haven't got shirt on" he called back.
 This is only nominally a three-cor nered fight" he said "Tn reality the fight Is between the party of the peo- pie on one side and on the other the bosses and the benehciaries of priv ilege who will throw their weight 10 whichever of the old parties they think can beat us

 Senseless
Tuesday Night Robbers Attempted to Hold Up Train Near Same Spot But Stopped Freight Train
 Instead

New Orleans. September IA lone train bandit held up the northbound express of the Louisville and Nash vile railroad at S;30 o'clock tonight, near Michaud. 2 miles from here loot ed the mail car, robbed the passengers In five Pullman cars and a club car and then, just as he was about to leave the tender, was struck over the head with a brass torch by Engineer Baer and captured. He was taken to Bay St. Louis and may die. The booty, except for one mail bag thrown from the car, was recovered and returned. The bandit would give no name.
 The Louisville and Nashville express, that left here at o'clock, was about two and half miles from Mlchaud, a bandit appeared on the tender. covered Engineer Baer and the fireman with a revolver, and forced them to stop the train.
 Drove Engineer Ahead of Him
 He then drove them ahead of him into the mail ear. There he made the negro porter throw ono mail bag off, secured some registered letters and continued his march into the Pullmans One after another he went through the cars, and, while the passengers held up their hands and the engineer and fireman preceded him. he took his toll from the travellers and put 1t into a small valise. He took nothing but money. After securing his loot the lone bandit drove the engineer and fire man back to the tender and made them again start the train His plan was tc have them drop him off after they left the swamps. But Engineer Baer watching his opportunity, caught him off his guard and knocked him sense- less with a heavy brass torch
 Booty Is Returned
 With the bandit disposed of, train crew and passengers were quickly aroused to action superintendent Mar shall of this division of the road, a passenger on the train, had the robber' S booty returned to the passengers. lt amounted to only about s100. Conductor Rabon had spread the news that the train was being held up and most of the travellers had hidden their money and valuables before the bandit entered the cars.
 The train was run into Bay St. Louis, where the bandit was put in charge of Louisville and Nashville surgeons. He refused to give his name and later be- came delirious He Is not expected to live.
 When reports first reached the city they were that the train had been Jagged just as was the freight train last night and that robbers, three of them, supposedly last nights gang, had footed the train and escaped in an automobile. Detectives were rushed to the scene in special train and also in automobiles.
 Though but one bandit wen. through the train 1t is believed that others were concerned with him He Is supposed to have gotten aboard at the outskirts of the city and it Is D, lleved that oth- CTS were to have come aboard when he stopped the train. No trace of his suspected pals could be found in the swamps The police are Investigating.

MI. MILLION! !, ! DOLLAR SNOW.


Last Friday evening 1t began to rain
and continued for nearly "a hours.
!. Monday morning found the snow com
ing down steadily and apparently It
had been showing all night. mas:
much as the ground was thoroughly
soaked last fall and III froze down at
least eight feet and the further fact
that it rained a week ago together with
the moisture that the northeastern just
clothed this part Of the north west,
means much to our farmers. No
Campbell system is needed this year
to insure q crop. The ground can
hold no moisture to advantage. What
we need is warm spring weather SO
the bumper crop that we are going to
get this year can be sown. Wet years
are always good years in North Da-
kota. The rain and snow that has just
fallen is not only q million dollar snow
but it is worth millions. "a. 4
