supporting ihe Democratic candidate
rather than Colonel Roosevelt he said:
II we analyze the Republican vote
cast at the Presidential primary cleo
tons We have proof with which TO es-
tabllsh the fact that the rank and file In
the Republican party is progressive,
and which leaves no excuse for the or
ganiZatiOn of the Third Term party by
Roosevelt. If victory for progressive
principles had been the aim of Theodore
Roosevelt it might easily have been ac-
complished this very year through the
Republican party, for If Roosevelt and
his following In the Republican National
convention had given their support TO
GoXernor Hadley or some other pro-
gresSiVe Republican, the nomination
ana our party would have triumphed at
the coming election.
But when he was denied the nominal
ton Roosevelt would not withdraw as a
candidate and throw his support TO "a
Progressive like Hadley, but instead he
ordered a bolt from the very party that
had heretofore so consplcuously honored
him, and, although processing to be
hEhung Tor the people and Progressive
principles, ne has deliberately played
into the hands OF the reactiOnalies by
dividing the Progressive Republican
vote.
Remember. his Third Term party was
not officially organized until after the
progressive Democrats had succeeded IN
nominating a progressive candidate and
one who deserves the support of pro-
greSSiVeS generally. But now we must
either vote for a Republican reactionary
who does not represent the rank ana
file of the Republican party. a progress
SiVe Democrat who won his nomination
honestly or a self-nominated dictator
who has already enjoyed two terms in
the White House. and during whose ad-
ministrations the trusts multiplied in
number from 1i9 to 10.O20-and there
was no tariff revision.

Playing Up Local Interests.

Colonel Roosevelt begins MS swing down
the Pacific Coast tomorrow, and IL is eX-
pected his speeches now viii deal cOnsid-
erably with the womans suffrage plank Of
the Progressive party platform. The colo
mel Is now invading states where women
as well as men vote. He has a campaign
habit Of playing UP the local interest. For
instance, in Minnesota he laid stress on
his second thought opposition to Cana
dian reciprocity, in North Dakota he
talked reciprocity and tariff. with hot
shots at the trusts: in Montana he talked
ranching, irrigation and Amalcamated
Copper: in Washington and on the coast
proper woman's suffrage transcontinental
railroad domination and the Panama
Canal will prove fruitful topics for vote
catching. On the Journey from Helena to
Spokane to-day the Bull Moose made no
speeches.
on his trip through the Far West Colo
mel Roosevelt has not been able 10 keep
up with the political news, and II was not
until to-day he learned the details Of the
nomination OF Oscar S. Straus as Pro-
greSsive candidate for Governor of New
York. Expressing his admiration for Mr..
Straus and the strength his nomination
brought to the Progresslves. Colonel
Roosevelt said:

Of the Vice President is the nomination
OF the Governor OF New York Oscar s.

study and administration OF the law, was
one of those who reached conclusions as
to the needs Of our handling OF the anti
trust and Interstate commerce and similar
laws which were substantially embodied
in the Republican platform.
Colonel Roosevelt saw several CONNER
cial travellers on the train to-day and
told them he appreciated the efforts of

Fear Of Machine Rule.

Mr.. Smiths selection as the Democratic
candidate for tho Senate would boz tl.
most fatal step backward that the Demo-
Gratis Of the state could possibly take.
IL would mean his restoration TO political
leadership I'm New Jersey the moment my
service as Governor ended and. with his
restoration, return 20 the machine rule
which 30 long kept every active Democrat
In the state IN subOrdnation TO him and
prevented every progressive programme
conceived In the interest Of the people
from being put into effect.
| speak with knowledge In this matter,
because AT every turn of my administra-
ton since / became Governor | have
found his hand against the new plans OF
the party, his influence working steadily
but covertly against everything that has
substituted hope and pride for discoura &C.
ment and shame I'm the politics Of New
Jersey during the twenty months during
which | have been permitted to serve the
people Of the state
Il Is OF particularly sinister import that
Mr.. Smith should seek 10 return 10 the
Senate OF the United states at this time.
He was sent TO the Senate once before
when the tariff had been the chief issue
Of the national campaign and when the
Democrats had for once I'm q generation
an opportunity TO relieve the people OF
intolerable burdens and the industry OF
the country Of the trammels which bound
il like n straitiackct.
II the tariff could have been wisely re-
yised then We might have been spared
some part at least OF the crop OF trusts
and combinations which now rule and cir
cumscrlbe our markets.

Pleased at Nomination OF Straus.

The moving picture man was Dusily en-
gagged meanwhile After officiating as as
sistant engineer for twenty miles or more
through the tunnels and around the bends
Of the Rockies between Helena and Mis-
soula. Colonel Roosevelt resumed his con-
ference with Senator Dixon. his campaign
manager. who accompanied him across
the state to-day Later the colonel die
tated statement indicating his great
pleasure" that the Progressiyes had nom
mated oscar s. Straus for Governor "i
New York The nomination. asserted the
colonel, IS not only fortunate thing Tor
the New York ProgTessives, but also "A
piece Of real good fortune for the Progress
sive movement throughout the nation
Senator Dixon told the colonel the
Progressves had been particularly fortu-
nate In the selection Of their Montana
state ticket. The ticket was named Just
prior to the arrival OF the colonel at the
Bull Moose convention In Helena on
Saturday night.
Political conditions In Montana arc
badly mixed. according TO men gathered
from all parts OF the state attending the

most dead heat between the three can
ddates. In general the business interests
seem TO be supporting the President. the
cowboys and ranchmen form the nucleus
OF the Roosevelt strength, and WILSON IL
drawing somewhat from the DISCONTINUED
element IN the Republican party.
In all OF his Montana speeches the colo
mel raped President Taft and also
charged that Amalgamated Copper had
controlled the delegates to the June con-
vention. st the Bul. Moose Convention In
Helena Mr.. Roosevelt paid tribute TO Sen
ator Dixon. saying that he had taken
charge Of the campaign last winter when
the Bull Moose chances seemed mighty
slim"
The feryor of the colonel's Montana APP
peal reflects his feeling that he has a hard
fight to take the state away from the
President, and the coloucrs peroration be-
fore the Bull Moose Convention exceeded
any recent oratorIcal effort.

Smith an Obstructionist.

Mr.. Smith was one Of "A small group OF
Senators calling themselves Democrats
who at that critical and hopeful tuncturc
in our politics utterly defeated the pro-
gramme OF the party. His election now
might bring the party face to face with "A
similar disaster and disgrace and would
unquestionably render the satisfactory
administration of the federal functions in
New Jersey all but impossible for DEM
ocratlc President

zens but ] cannot permit any reluctance

party pledged 10 the peoples interest
and now under peculiar obligations 10 full
Ill that pledge. IL the Democratic party
does not keep its promises now IL viii
never have aBother opportunity TO do so.
Mr.. Smith could not and would not lend
himself 10 any programme of genuinely
progressive legislation. My first alleei-
ance Is TO the progressive policies, 10
which I have openly and solemnly dedi-
Gated every poWer J possess. Everything
else must stand aside In the interest OF
the country and Of the great state OF
which am Governor
7 have pointed ont to you facts and
forces toward which you may, perhaps,
have grown indulgcntly Indifferent I'm this
ton. 7 know how YOU will act when you
are reminded of them. We can indulge
nothing when the stake IL our country
welfare and prosperity and the honor OF
our party.
When ex-senator Smith was shown
Governor Wilson's statement at his
home at Elberon last night he refused
TO make any comment.
Although Governor Wilson has eX-
pressed his disapproval of the candi-
dacy Of ex-senator Smith, he has given
no indication as 10 which Of the three
Wilson candidates he favors I'm the race
for the United States Senatorship.
These are ex-Judge John j. Westcott,
Of Camden, who nominated Wilson at
Baltimore: Representative William
Hughes and Senator William c. Geb-
hardt, of Hunterdon.
The fight among the Wilson men has
become bitter. each Of them stoutly as
sorting that under no circumstances
will he withdraw so that a united
front can be presented to Smith.
