Once Endorsed President

Declaring that, regarding the sink
ing Of the Lusitania, Mr.. Hughes had
said he would have done what Presi-
dent Wilson did-only an hour and
half earlier Vice President Marshall
confessed 20 Newark Democrats last
night that he himself might have fallen

AS for Colonel Roosevelt, Mr.. Mar
shall said he had known from the be-
ginning that the Colonel was only
suing the Republican party for divorce
on the ground OF nou-support. II was
no surprise 20 see him back when no
slimony was granted. he added. and,
while the need for Progressive party
had passed, 10 had passed because
President Wilson had accomplished its
reforms.
Mr.. Marshall spoke in Kruger Audi

escorted 20 the hall from the Robert

WILSON CHANGES
CAMPAIGN PLANS
To End Fight in Shadow
Lawn, Instead of New
York. on Nov. 4

President Wilson will end the cam
paign at Shadow Lawn on Saturday No
vember g. instead of in New York. as
had been planned by local Democratic
leaders. Under plans announced By the
Presidents managers here yesterday
the occasion will be called an "old home
day." and Will be given over, nominally
at least, 70 former neighbors and po-
lIcal supporters OF the national ex-
ecutive IN New Jersey.
This plan viii not prevent the run
ming Of a special train 20 Shadow Lawn
from New York. however, to carry
such of the city's faithful Democrats
as have not heard their candidate at
enc Of his Saturday afternoon ad-
dresses before that time.
In discussing this new arrangement
Vance Mccormick. chairman Of the
Democratic National Committee, said
that he would remain in New York
from now until Election Day. Fresh re
ports from Headquarters throughout
the country. he declared. had made hin
feel more optimistic than ever before,
and that statements being made by
members of the rank and file of the
voters indicated that Wilson's popu-
laritv still was growing.
After a brief conference with John
" Parker, Presidential nominee
Of the Progressive party, Mr.. McCor-
mick announced that there was a pos
sibiity that Mr.. Parker might appear
on the same platform with the man
whom he had expected 20 have as his
running mate, after al. Colonel Roose-
Welt, ne said. was 20 be invited 20 dis
cuss the issues of the campaign in
Connecticut with Mr.. Parker.
Charles II. Trieschman, a Progress
sive leader Of Hartford, Conn. has
telephoned me that they are inviting
Colonel Roosevelt 10 appear there,
either IN debate or otherwise" he said,
"to answer the statements made by Mr..
Parker while he was there a short time
ago.
II can imagine nothing more inter
esting than 20 hear debate between
the TWO Progressivss-the man who
was 20 have been tire candidate for
President and the man who IS running

Among very slight straws which have
encouraged the Republicans Is this:
On a certain residence street, in the
heart of the Tenth Ward. Democratic,
there is only one Autograph OF candi-
date, a picture of Hughes. in the home
OF a New York Central locomotive en-
gineer.
There is local situation in
Oneida County politics which may
make for much splitting Of tickets
on Election Day. The Democrats have
pitted q very popular Utica saloon
keeper as their candidate for sheriff
against a Republican farmer. who has
made enemies in one faction OF the
Republican organization. The sitting
county judge, a Democrat, who IS a
candidate for reelection, is being sup
ported by one of the Republican news
papers on his record.
Appeal for German Vote
The Democrats are rather proud OF
the strategy they displayed in the
balance" of their local ticket. Upon
il they have put four men with de-
cidedly Teutonic names. They are
frankly making q play for the Ger
man vote. The Republican organiza-
ton here, Of which that past master in
the political game Jesse VI. Brsyton is
chief, is not making q noisy campaign.
The Democrats are depending much on
red fire, uniformed paraders and brass
bands. On Friday night there was
much o., that sort Of thing upon the
joint arrival Of the Democratic candi
date for Governor and his encourage
and that newly organized band calling
itself WILSON'S Willing Volunteers"

Mr. Wilson himself has given circuls-
tion - that Wall Stree Is backing

There is a great deal OF substantial
fact behind the upstate Democratic
CheerfuIness. The "kept-us-out-of-war'
issue is certainly beginning 20 bear
fruit in many places. Republican lead
ers here say, however. they expect 20
gain as many red-blooded Democrats as
they lose chicken-hearted Republicans.

that now he would not concede more
