With Leaders.

NEW YORK, Oct. 5.-The Progress
sive campaign will be started here
tonight, when Governor Johnson, of
California, running mate of Colonel

wind tour of Manhattan and the
Bronx.
This will be the first visit of Cow
ernor Johnson to this city as politi-
cal speaker, and four meetings have
been arranged for him. It was orig
inally intended for him to speak only

arranged for Camp Roosevelt and
Mckinley Square Casino, the Bronx.
Before starting on his speaking tour
of the city the governor will confer
with the Bull Moose campaign man
ayers at the Hotel Manhattan.
Tonights meetings are regarded as
most important to the Progressive
cause, more 50 than any of the cam
paign except possibly the Madison
Square Garden meeting on October
rs, when Colonel Roosevelt himself
willsappear.
Governor Johnson has been making
a tour of New York State during the
last few days. He stopped at Bing-
hamton last night to fay Governor
Wilson as a false friend of labor.
