nomination was obtained at Chicago. The
Governor sat with immobile face.
During the day Colonel Roosevelt spent
an hour with Minnesota Progressive lead

to whether a Progressive state ticket
should be named. He expressed the
opinion that the Progressives should

line" although II the Progressive Re-

primaries This month. he thought such a
step might not be necessary. lie Is will

The Logan Republican Club OF Brook
lyn took the first step last night tc

This end is to be achieved by amending
the preamble OF the constitution, which
now declares that the organization shall
conduct itself In such manner as TO con-
serve the interests of the Republican
party.
+. &. Brnkerhoff. an ex-president,
offered All amendment at a meeting last
night. which will strike out the words
Republican party from the preamble.
and put In their place the words 1.-The
people" The amendment was referred
to the executive committe OF the organiza-
ton. which will pass upon 1t and refer
IL back to the members for final action.
It's adoption Is conceded. This will make
the club independent In It's politics. For
the time being its sentiment is almost
entirely Progressive.
The meeting accepted the resignation
OF Frank N. Bruner from the presidency,
and his resignation from the club was
referred. In the usual course, to the ex-
ecutive committee for action along with

Republican Chairman Points to

me failure of Governor johnson OF Cali
iorhia TO surrender the affairs Of the Re-

tlon for the Office of vice-President on
the third party ticket was severely criti-
cised yesterday in statement issued by
chairman Hilles Of the Republican Ma
tional Committee.
Mr.. Hilles said that the question Of de-
cency and honor did not appeal to Gov

securing electors for Mr. Roosevelt and
himself, organized the primary campaign
and secured the nomination under the
name of Republicans of the men who
were working to defeat the Republican
candidates. This compelled the Republi-

He said in his statement:
No one can properly characterize this
piece OF political depravity. personal COW

a piece of trickery to which no honorable
man would descend. johnson was nomi-
mated, a minority candidate, by the Re-
publcans of California, and received from
them his first political honor and prefer
ment. He has reciprocated by abandon
ing the party, giving aid and comfort 10
its enemy, and he winds up by stealing
the party's organization. its emblem. and
by fraud and chicanery tries TO secure
for himself and his party votes that are
intended for the Republican candidate.

Sea Grit, N. j.. Sept. 5.-Governor Will
son got home from New York at o'clock
this afternoon, feeling as clipper as a
lark. because, safely tucked away In his
inside pocket, was a copy OF the speech
he Is going to deliver at the New York
Press Club on Monday night.
The Governor hates to prepare speech
I'm advance, because. he says. he finds 1t
difficult to memorize 1t. But he assured
the newspaper men tonight that, because
OF the Importance Of his address on Mon
day night, he was going to make another
try. He said, however, that he felt pretty
certain he would follow his prepared
speech--in substance. at least.
Governor Wilson In this speech will
anaIyze the platforms and the aims ~
the three parties and endeavor TO prove
that the Democratic party is the only one
deserving Of support.
The Governor kept on explaining his
views on immigration to-day. when two
declarations Of Italians called on him after
luncheon to ask him how he felt toward
the question. This has become somewhat
of a feature Of the life at the Little Sum-
mer Capital. Hardly week goes by
without Governor Wilson being called on
TO discuss the immigration question with
some delegation or other, and In spite Of
the fact that his speeches are printed lib
orally, they apparently have proved un-
satisfactory to a good many politicians
who are looking for some excuse to come
here and unburden themselves Of how-

Quotes Colonel Roosevelt.

Mr.. Hilles then quoted abstracts from
the speech of Colonel Roosevelt. made In
Chicago on August s. in which the ex-
President declared that a straight third
party ticket should be run In Pennsyl-
vanla. and that he would not consent 10
having Republican electors who had come
out for him 20 on both tickets. and said:
From time TO time you have assured
me that the former Republicans now on
the electoral ticket would resign, but no
snch action has yet been taken. Re-
publicans throughout the state OF Penn
sylyania have made repeated demands
upon the state committee 20 remove from
their ticket the anti-Republican electors
so that an aggressive campaign may be
inaugurated. AS the day OF the election
approaches, the necessity of purgtng the
acket becomes more and more inpera-

10 substitute loyai Republicans for dis
loyal Republicans. IL would be better
