LEADERS URGE
ROOSEVELT
TO ENTER RACE
Colonel Fights Shy Of the Progress
i've Nomination for
Governor

New York, July S.-For two hours
today the Progressive leaders Of New
York State used every argument At
their command to induce Colonel
Roosevelt to agree that he would &C
cept the nomination for governor.
After It was all over Colonel Roose.
welt said he had nothing to say at
this time and would not change his
previous statements declining to run.
It was understood that the question
was still kn open one. with the colon
81 continuing to stand out against the
proposal that he head the state tick
ct.
Judging from the sounds which
ems mated from the counsel room the
debate was a lively one, with Colonel
Roosevelt on one side and everybody
else on the other. George w. Perkins
and perhaps thirty others attended
the conference. Colonel Roosevelt
was told that In his own party there
was an overwhelming demand for him
to lead the party, and straw votes
taken in various sections of the state
were submitted to him in an effort
to prove that he would gain support
from both the old parties and be cleo
ted.
II have not got anything to say
about the governorship or anything
else concerning politics" said the
colonel when he came out OF the
room. III have anything to say la
ter to alter my previous statement
you will all know about It,"
Somebody handed the colonel
newspaper dispatch quoting Henry
Savage Lander of England as renew
ing his attack on Roosevelts claim
to the discovery of river in South
America.
"Landor," the colonel exclaimed,
Is a perfectly preposterous absurd
ity. No serious scientist dreams of
accepting him as anything more than
a buffoon as an explorer.
Colonel Roosevelt agreed today to
make his speech in Biston originally
set for July "a, on August II.

Practical
Psychology
BY Winfield Jones

SION oi the country Is merely "psy.
Geological" is simply piffle.
Following are some of the items
to this "psychological' debacle
A falling off in bank clearings in
all leading financial centers.
Cessation Of orders for steel
amounting 70 nearly so per cent.
Four times the number of idle rail-
road cars as COMPARED with May.
1913.
Tons of Lake Superior ore carried
in May, 1914, a,s52,Os5. as against
7,2s4,212 tons carried in MAY, 1913.
Gross earnings Of railroads. 1i.io
per cent less than for May, 1913.
Building permits in II cities show
a falling of Of s22,s7,,24a in i've
months.
Commercial failures in May the
largest for that month in fourteen
years.
Shipment abroad OF more than
$5O,OOO,OOO in god during the first
half Of June.
The tariff has moro than psychol
ogy to do with the business unrest
Two of the biggest clothing manu-.
facturers in .he United States made
their usual trip abroad recently and
surprised their friends by staying
much longer than usual. Their ex
explanation was, I'VE need more
time because we are COINS to buy SO
much more cloth in England than we
have ever bought before. With the
tariff changed, We shall buy in Eng
land Il great deal that We have bee.i
buying from American manufacturers
hitherto"
These manufacturers have not re-
duced the price Of clothes. The con.
sumer has not benefited.
Whereas formerly enc American
workingman in a cloth mill was max.
ing the material which another Am
erican workingmal later on purchas.
ed in his suit, now a workingman In |
is making the cloth that the
American workingman buys in tho
suit.
The money that one American
worker earns and that used to form
erly go to another American worker
now goes to worker in England.
We do not need psychology, mere
sense, to know that kind of
thing means trouble for the Ameri-
can worker.
The people have a right to know
these facts. Knowing the facts and
the conditions. the people will be
prepared to pass judgment at the
polls upon the politicians who are
guilty of the serious crime of under
mining American prosperity.
Since Wilson became President ev-
cry industry in the country has been
Injured, particularly the following:
The sugar industry, both agricul'
tural as to cane and beets and the
production OF sugar beets.
Iron and steel.
Lumber.
Wool growing.
Wooden manufactures.
Cotton manufactures.
Building.
Railroading.
Printing.
Leather.
Cars, carriages and wagons
Furniture.
Every industry but one has aeeh
hurt 1t is said that pawnbrokers
we're never so flourishing, though the
vast savings accumulated under M
teen years of protection have not
yet been so depleted as to drive all
to the pawnshops.
When it is remembered that the
tariff is only the first step
Of the free traders, we can well con-
template with anxiety what a second
and third step would bring, ;,
There are 100000 wage earners
short hours or wholly unem-
oloyed in the country today.
The first step toward remedyins
his fearful condition will be a pro-
lest by all protectionists at the polls

WAR HURTS SOUTH AMERICA
Business Stagnation and Actual
Want on the West Coast

Panama, Sept. 3.-Reports received
here from points on the west coast of
South America indicate that condi-
tons worse than anything known in
many years now prevail as a result
of the European war. The conflict
virtually has halted sea t,ansporta
ton along the Pacific coast OF South
America, thus putting an end to the
importation OF many necessities Of
life. There is reason TO believe that
many persons in the coast towns arc
in actual want as a result Of the stag
nation of business, and that thous-
ands are out OF employment
Business in all cities as FAR south
as Antofagasta, Chile, il is asserted,
virtually is at standstill, ana a mum
be- of the largest houses, it issaid,
have ceased business while they
await better conditions.
The proclamation of partial mora
forum at Lima, Peru, permits banks
to refuse payments in excess of 5
per cent. of their deposits weekly,
while the Peruvian Government has
forbidden the expectation of gold.
Conditions at Guayaquil and other
Ecuadorian ports, as well as ports in
Colombia are believed here to be
equally bad, judging from reports re-
ceived from these localities.
Ships are clearing from Balboa,
the Pacific end of the Panama Canal,
which little cargo and few passeng-
ers, and several vessels are laid up
at Balboa awaiting better conditions.
The business situation in Central
America is believed here to be little
better than on the Pacific coast of
South America.
