being underscored in different places.
But he thought he had the right to
inquire into the qualifications of his
critic. How could the man from the
far north where the negro was more
or less made an equal, know how the
man from the far south felt on the
negro question? The man making the
| CHARGES against him had tried to say
in the Oklahoma constitution that
the words negro and cOlored per-
SON should be synonymous and mean
persons of African descent up to the
third degree. but they would all then
become white" and social equals. He
thought he was serving the cause of
democracy in writing this letter to
one who claimed to be the editor of
negro democratic paper. His oppo-
nent is the man whose campaign man
ayers are now organizing negro dem
ocratic clubs and trying to draw the
negro vote.
The senator said that it had been
charged that he had expended STA
900 when he ran for senator the first
time. This was not true. He had
stayed well within the $4,000 limit
provided by law,
The speaker stated that the state
ment that he was worth from $1,000
900 tc S1O,000,000 was false.
Regarding the statement that he
was not a good democrat, his record
as a democrat stood for itself
In the beginning of his remarks re-
nlvinp IN hn n1lnnotipnS aud
the charges filed against him, Senator
Owen had requested anyone in the au-
dienCe who cared to do so. to ask him
any question they wanted to. a voice
from the audience now asked how
aboNt his reported numerous absences
from the senate. The gentleman said
that while he was absent making this
campaign he was. according to sena-
torial precedent, paired with a re-
publican senator, with senator who
was one of the stalwarts, and that
while he himself was not there to
vote, the republicans hands were tied
so that he could not vote. He was
paired he said, with Robert Gamble
of North Dakota,
In closing his remarks, the senator
said that he felt that he had the fate
of the people-the rule of the many
against that of the few-at heart and
that he had fought the battle of the
masses from the Atlantic to the Pa
cific. Through his efforts, he said
he felt that Maine had been won by
the democracy and that now, for the
first time in sixty years she had two
democrats in the national senate
Through his efforts was largely due the
fact that McClure's Magazine had ia
ken up the matter of exposing republi-
can rottenness.
After dwelling at length upon the
question of the recall of federal
judges, the senator brought his re-
marks to close. Responding TO an
invitation extended to all to come for
ward and meet him and snake hands
with him, the crowd surged forward
and for near thirty minutes the sena
tor was the center of this impromtu
reception.
The time occupied in speaking was
nearly three hours and when he
brought his remarks to close he did
so amid cries of Go on, go on

TEsTIFlEs AT GOTHAM TRIAL
LIEUTENANT MADE THREAT.
Asserts That Accused Gunner
Fired Fatal Shots.

New York, Oct. 12.-Lieut. Charles
Becker listened with blanched coun-
tenance while Morris Luban o he
heard Becker say to Jack Rose, two
weeks before the Rosenthal murder:
IF you don't croak Rosenthal I'll
croak him myself" 1t was the first
bit of testimony connecting the four
gunner with the police officer on
trial for his life before Justice Golf in
the criminal branch OF the supreme
court.
Luban, who also was an eyewitness
of the murder, identified "Gyp the
Blood" and Lefty Louie" as two of
the men who fired the shots that
killed Rosenthal, and William Shapiro
as driver of the murder car. He also
swore that "Dago" Frank was in the
group. He knew Rosenthal and had
seen Becker in a gambling house.
John F. Mcintyre, chief counsel for
the defendant, spent hours trying to
break down his testimony.
Luban was discovered by District
Attorney Whitman a day or two ago,
with his brother. Jacob. in Jail in
Newark. N. J., on a forgery charge.
The brothers claimed to have been
u%njustly accused by somebody. The
New York prosecutor procured their
release o n parole.
Luban said he heard Becker utter a
death threat, against Rosenthal in the
Lafayette bath house, and that he
stood within two or three feet of the
police officer. He did not know Beck
er well, he conceded, but had seen
him In a gambling house on Allen
street.

men was made without hesitation.
