NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-Gov. Wilson
left for Rochester at $3.50 u N to-
day. greatly pleased with the recep-
ton he received at Madison-sq. gar
den last night. and fully convinced
that he would receive large vote IN
New York next Tuesday.
The governor frankly confessed
that for the first time In his life ne

Gus cheering so affected him that ne
lost completely the thread OF the
speech he had prepared and delivered
brand new one.

Gov. Wilson Will return to this city
tomorrow morning TO review the great
Democratic parade tomorrow after
noon which the Democrats expect 10
outdo all such affairs ever held In the
United States.
Gov. Woodrow Wilson, speaking
last night before an audience tnat
filled every corner OF Madison-sQ
garden, received the greatest ovation
OF his campaign for the presidency,
Entering the hall at GIL o'clock, az
ter speaking before an enthusiastic
audience in the Bronx, the Democratic
candidate stood for an hour and three
minutes at the railing OF the speak
ers' platform. waiting for the demon
stration to end.
80 from
the doorway, when Gov. Wilson ar
rived by automobile from the Bronx
meeting, the Madison-sQ. garden out
burst defied his utmost efforts 10
quell 1t. The governors motion Tor
quiet brought only renewed cheers.
Gov. Wilson spoke extemporaneous-
ly.
Government Is an enterprise OF
mankind, not of parties" he said.
AS election day approaches | have
greater and greater feeling OF SAT
isfaction, because | know that the
American people are about to make
one OF the most vital choices or their
lives. From one ocean to the other
men are becoming aware that In less
than a week the common people oil
America will come into their own.
"All men have to do Is TO realize
that the common enterprises OF life
are the enterprises of politics; that a
mar Is not voting an abstract political
creed, but Is voting a program OF JUS
Itice and of right when he votes at the
polls. Now, IL you want that program,
what are you going to do next Tues-
dayf"
Vote for wilson," interrupted Q
voice, and there was great applause.
Il appreciate the compliment" con-
tinued the speaker, "but want to cay
this: That unless you people put your
selves into Wilson he won't be worth
anything. The one thing that will set
reform forward In this country, my
friends, il a united government, and
0 united government does not consist
of a president. A united government
consists of house of representatives
OF q president and Of something that
in my time the people have not yet
cal tured-a senate.
And II consists Of something more

You have got to have vital or
gaDization OF purpose spreading
Throughout the United States In order
that great bodies OF men may unite
together for the great project o!
emancipation, and the only possible
chance OF having a great united or
ganization after the fourth of March
next Is to vote the Democrat ticket
AFTER next Tuesday we shall
know not what men are going to pro

Go, be pitlful to the man who
promises the American people what
he is not ready to perform. The case
Is made up: the case 10 before the
Jury.
"I myself do not doubt the verdict,
but I want to say to you that IL tho
verdict shall be that the people OF
the United States have voted upon
their individual convictions as free
men, I, for my part, am ready to &C.
