The special significance OF these
meetings is their indication OF what
the method Of women in politics Is
going to be. earnest and sollcitous LOT
each other Those who expected
transcontinental junket and middle
aged tea party Of the womens cam
paign train have already been dlsap-
pointed.
Arrangements are being made for
series of small conferences with west
ern women leaders to discuss IN the
observation car methods OF publicity
and organization, so that whatever the
Eastern women working with the ma
tional committee learn can be passed
on swiftly TO the Mississippi Valley,
and yarns may be swamped as to the
way things get put through out west.
Che Buffalo arrangements were
~aqe by a committee of one hundred
men and one hundred women. Mrs.
Russell Bryant, q prominent member
of the anti-suffrage board, was chair
man. The ants threaten to resign.
of course, whenever some misguided
newspaper puts a suffrage complexion
on its Hughes train headline, but two
or three ants have deserted to the
suffrage side of the fence, finding 1t
easier thus to explain their plunge
into national campaign.
There were more men at the Buffalo
meeting than in Syracuse, and still
more men in Cleveland than in Buff
falo. -,
Men preside at all meetings. The
Hon. Daniel j. Kenepick presided IN
Buffalo. This pleases Miss Kellor, be-
cause the women's campaign train had
been as heartily discouraged by Re
publican men in the cities east OF Chi
cago as it had been encouraged by the
Hughes boosters in the West.
The street meetings in Buffalo ended
in lively alteration. Miss Annie
Peck. the celebrated mountain climber,
who hurried back from South America
TO hold President Wilson responsible
for our growing unpopularity in Latin
America. was speaking from the back
of an automobile. a man in the crowd
began hcckling with questions about
the Danbury hatters' strike and the
eight-hour law, and he beloved until
a policeman was called.
Mrs. Myron T. Herrick, general chair
man Of the Cleveland demonstration,

Five Speeches for Hughes
in Swing Around
Circle.
TARIFF TO BE THEME
IN ONE OF ADDRESSES
Roosevelt Is Enthusiastic
and Thinks "We Have
Got Them"

Colonel Roosevelt agreed TO make a
sswing around the circle" in behalf Of
hughes yesterday, abandoning his de-
cision to limit himself to four speeches
nj the earnest insistence of the cam
paign managers. Arrangements for his
tour were practically completed.
One OF the features of the trip will
be an out-and-out tariff speech by the
Collaborating extremely rare. The
tariff was not an issue during his ad-
ministrations, and his utteranees on
The subject have been few. The Repub-
licans, however, have found the issue a
powerful one this fall. and after a long
conference with William r. Wilcox,
George W. Perkins and other leaders
Mr.. Roosevelt agreed to devote one
speech to the question. 1t will prob
ably be delivered in Chicago.
Will Go as Far as Denver.
In spite Of vigorous urgings for him
to 20 TO the Pacific Coast, the Colonel
set the limit for his stumping tour at
Denver. There will be a speech there.
one at Chicago. one at St. Paul, where
the Colonels friend. Frank B. Kellogg.
IS running for United States Senator;
another at Louisville, at the request Of
A. T. Hert, the Western campaign man
Rger. who wants to give his home state
TO Hughes. and one in the South.
When he returns he will make several
speeches in the East. probably two in
New York City. He will not travel by
special train.
Mr.. Hughes determined a few days
sgo that the paramount issue. as far as
be is concerned, Is that raised by the
Adamson railroad labor law. Reports
from the West and Middle West, espe-
rally the industrial centres, confirm his
judgment, but they indicate also that
many people are also tremendously in
terested i'm the industrial situation that
will arise when the European war ends.
Il is these people who are concerned
with the tariff more than with any
pther issue.
Thinks We've Got Them"
The Colonel was a picture of optim-
ism and energy yesterday lie came 10
town TO attend the Hughes reception at
the Union League Club, but he com
bined business and politics with II;
Somebody asked him about the general
bis desk at the metropolitan" Offices,
snd this was his reply:
81 don't want TO express any over
confidence, but ! think we have got
them, if every one keeps working. We
have got to keep our coats off. don't
think Mr.. Wilcox will let anybody lie
down on the job
Later in the day he made character
lstic comment on Samuel Sesbury's at
back on George W. Perkins.
"Since this incident, which Mr.. Sea
bury says afficts him with horror, took
place" said the Colonel, "Mr. Seabury
has been cheek by jowl with Mr.; Per
kins; has accepted his money and sup
mort: has been a candidate on the tick
et with him, recently seeking his infu-
rnce. and would not have been on the
Court OF Appeals but for Mr.. Perkins's
support.
"in Seabury's case not merely graft
tude, but the capacity for righteous IN
dignation, seems TO be inexplicably
plixed with lively sense Of fsvors to
rome"

CHOICE OF ELECTORS
DELAYED TILL FRIDAY
Moose Get Time to Line Up Pro-
pressive Committee.

The Republican State Committee
met yesterday, but did not name Pro-
gressives to fill the vacancies among
the Republican Presidential electors.
State Chairman Frederick c. Tanner
adjourned the meeting until Friday
morning.
Meanwhile George w. Perkins, Will
lam H. Hotchkss and other Progress
sive leaders will have time to decide
whether they dare call the Progress
sive State Committee together to
ratify the Progressives whom the Re-
publicans select.
There probably will be eight Pro-
gressive electors chosen eventually,
six from New York City and two from
upstate, although the apportionment
may be changed to FIVE here and three
upstate. The main difficulty is I'M
certainty about the Progressive State
Committee. Mr.. Perkins and John
McGrath think they can get the COM
mittee to indorse eight electors and
put their names in the ballot under
the Bull Moose emblem, but some
Moose leaders are not so optimistic.
