SECTARIAN CAMPAIGN
AROUSES OSCAR STRAUS
Scores Attacks on Democratic Can

BY N. o. MESSENGER.

NEW YORK. October 29-That the
religious question, which has been in
jected into this campaign, cuts both
ways was shown last night in the tao
tics of Gov. Glynn and his friends. To
offset the sentiment up state of one
religious sect, Gov. Glynn swept into
Greater New York and invoked the sup
port of another.
He addressed a number of meetings
on the East Side in this city and was
received with enthusiasm. AT one OF
these meetings he was introduced by
Jacob H. Schiff, the eminent Jewish
philanthropist and f1nancier Mr.. Schiff
said:
4 feel nowhere so much at home as
when l am down here, among my own
people. The people here feel like / do
think like / do and we have the same
ideas. I come to you tonight with
Gov. Glynn. 1 have followed his career
closely. l can truly say to you he has
been tried and not found wanting. ]
wish you could see your way clear to
vote for him and retain him in the ex-
ecutive chair in Albany. I don't say
want you to vote for him. because one
American does not say to another
want you to do a thing. But I hope you
will vote for Gov. Glynn.
Appeal for Support.
IL hope the people downtown will be
for him. 1 am appealing to a Jewish
audience, and you know and have suf-
fered from the result of intolerance. I
appeal to you to put the stamp of con-
demnation on the attempt which is
being made to inject narrow,
bigoted issue into this campaign
To further illustrate this particular
trend In the campaign. another emf
nent Jew, candidate for constitutional
delegate. Oscar S. Straus, has written
a letter to Chauncey j. Hamlin of
bunalo, progressive candidate for lieu
tenant governor. Mr.. Strauss finds that
he as well as Mr.. Hamlfn has been in
dorsed by the society attacking Glynn
He caustically repudiates this unwel-
come attention. and says:

American institutions are founded as

Is Catholic"

Mr.. Straus goes on to say:
"As the purpose OF this secret or
ganization. as stated in the press re-
ports. is evidently directed to dis
criminate against Gov. Glynn because
he Is Roman Catholic. and in this
secret way to inject into this campaign
sectarian issue, 1 desire to protest
against and resent such an un-Ameri-
can effort. / would far rather be de-
feated a hundred times over than be
elected by any votes obtained by such
methods"
New York city has great Catholic
vote and great Jewish vote. The at
nj rfxy
Gov. Glynn bids fair, it is thought by
politicians here. to concentrate this
combined vote for the democratic can

WAR NEWS IN BRIEF.

The German cruiser Emden,
whose remarkable exploits have
fairly earned a place in history, is
reported to have performed the
most daring feat of all. Dis
guised with a fourth smokestack
and flying the Japanese flag, the
Emden is said to have sailed bold
ly into the waters of Penang, a
British possession in the Straits
Settlement, and to have sunk a
Russian cruiser and a French de-
stroyer.
The long list of losses on the
sea continues to grow. Another
steamer is reported to have been
sunk off the north coast of Ire
land. OFF Cuxhaven a Swedish
steamer was destroyed by a mine,
with the loss of FIVE men.
Today's French statement,
while again optimistic in tone,
gave little specific information.
On the extreme western end of
the battle line, where the fighting
has been fercest, there is moth

reinforcements are being poured
in from every part along the bat
