WILSON BELIEVES
PEOPLE WILL RULE

| SEAGIRT, n. J., Sept 29.-After tel
ephouic communication with William 8,
McAdQp. late this afternoon. Governor
Woodrow Wilson tonight Issued his long
expected statement on the New York
political situation. As has been several
times stated Governor Wilson Is unalter-
ably opposed TO the renomina ton Of Gov
ernor DIX. In his statement. however, he
does not express opposition to Dix, but
demands that the Syracuse convention be
permitted TO mako its own choice. that
the delegates be given free rein and that
tho bosses keep their hands off Cover
| nor Wilson Is confident that in these cir
cumstances DIX will not be renominated
but tho delegates will name q progressive
candidate who will compare favorably
with Mr.. Straus and Mr.. Hedges. The
statement follows:
81 have been looking forward to the
Syracuse convention with tho deepest in
terest. because I realize its critical i'm.
portance TO the party throughout the
nation and I have made my opinion with
regard to 1t very plain to every friend
from New York. VINO has done mo tho
honor to consult. 1 have not said my
thing in public about 1t, or through the
newspapers. because I wanted to avoid
even tho appearance of doing what con-
domn in others. namely, trying to dictate
what great party organization should
do. what candidates It should choose and
whnt platforms II should adopt
What Country Expects.
But the very principle TO which I
hold myself bound. both In speech and In
action. Justifios Inc in saying that the
whole country demands and expects that
the Democracy OF New York ba loft ABB
solutely free to make It's own choice. I
believe that It Is ready to choose a pro-
gressive man and to adopt platform
which men OF progressive PRINCIPLES ev-
erywhere can heartily subscribe. II only
It be left free from personal control of
any sort. The organized Democrats OF
tho great state of Now York are ready
TO serve the nation and to serve Il with
intelligence They need no direction
from the governor OF another state, even
though he bo the candidate OF his party
for the presidency 1t is seldom that or
ganizations are at fault; II Is those who
attempt to dictate their action. No in
teiigent party leader can justify orl
wisely or even lntelligently condemn or
reject the open and honest organization

Dix Men Confident.

Friends of Governor Dix declared to-

dent as ever that he would head the
ticket.
The arrival late tonight of Leader Muir
ply was eagerly awaited by delegates
who were anxious to obtain some express
sion OF opposition OF the Tammany leader
on the preparation of Justice Bowling
who years ago, was Mr. Murphy's legal
and political advisor.
Friends OF Mr. Murphy who reached
here today said lie was not seeking to
force the nomination OF Governor piS
but felt that -tho Governor had given
the state good administration and was
entitled to a denomination, Those men
said, however. that II the Tanimany leader

Will Oppose Delay.

Clarence Nichols, his assistant. who had
active charge of tho governments .evi-
dencc before the grand Jury last July
said the prosecution would oppose any
reasons for delay. One and possibly two
or the defendants may be unable To ap-
pear because Of illness.
The government bases Its case chiefly
upon the evidence secured from the office
OF John J. Mcnamara at the time of his
arrest here, AT that time detectives Sc
cured over hundred letters and other
documents from McNanara's files, which,
according to the government attorneys,
establish the guilt OF tho forty-six defend
ants at least So far as the shipping of
dynamite from state TO state is concerned.
Altogether the indictments against the
labor leaders contain 12S counts against
each OF the defendants and the penalty
for any one OF the offenses varies from
eighteen months to two years.
Basis of Charges.
Sixty-five OF tho explosions considered
IN the indictments were on work of mem
hcrs OF the National Erectors' association.
an organization OF "open shop" employers,
and thlrty-one explosions, or attempts,
were on work of contractors who were
not members OF the erectors' association
There are over one hundred explosions
considered in the indictments, These ex-
plosions begun In 1906 and occurred at
widely scattered points all over the coun-
try.
Ono Of the features that will invest this
trial with unusual. II not sensational in
terest, Is the photograph.
just how big n part this mechanical
envcsdroppor will play In the trial Of the
labor leaders Is impossible to say, but
that 1T Will figure as one of Its most con-
spicuous elements there can be no doubt.
Claims Of Officials.
II is not only affirmed but il is mat
ter Of bonst on the part OF the govern
ment officials here that they have sue
oeeded in planting the photograph either
In the homes or the offices OF nearly all
OF the men under indictment and they
have record OF the inmost thoughts
of these men In connection with the
dynamiting outrages that have occurred
the country.
Just how discriminating these records
are only the trial itself can develop.
Among those who will come up for
trial are; President Ryan. John T. But
