little more light on the turning down
OF Surrogate John r.. Cohalan by

for reelection on an independent
ticket, will also speak, and considerable
speculation obtains among the friends
of the bosses as to what he will say.
William Travers Jerome, former Dis
trict Attorney, who at the opening
rally of the Cohalan campaign ten

was turned over to an unnamed poll
tieian in the room of Charles f..
Murphy to facilitate payment on two
city contracts, will also address the
Town Hall meeting.

Koenig Asked for Facts
Henry Wynans Jessup, campaign
manager for Cohalan, challenged Sam
Koenig yesterday to repudiate the
charge that he had entered into deal
with Murphy over the nominations for
Surrogate and other judicial offices,
and added:
~ think the voters ought to know,
and in connection with his explanation
I challenge Mr.. Koenig to publish the
names Of his office associates from the
time he was chairman Of the Republi-
can County Committee, with the dates
of their connection with his office"
"Of what significance would that
be ?" Jessup was asked.
81 can tell you after get that list"
replied Jessup. But think it will be
of great significance, and in all fair
ness l think Mr.. Koenig ought to give
us that information Immediately"

spires Extra Effort TO
Get Out Upstate Voters
Fron. a stog Correspondent


ALBANY, Oct. IS. Reviewing here
to-day the first week of his campaign
tour. Governor Miller expresses salts
faction with the conditions in the
northern tier and declared, that his
confidence had been increased by the
warm receptions he had had and by
the indications of strength that he had
had a personal opportunity to see
mere IS no doubt in the Governors
MIND that northern New York will give
and satisfactory majority. although.
perhaps, not so great as two years ago,
provided the vots can be brought out.
fhls feeling seems to be shared by
other party leaders. who, while they
depiore the fact that this is obviously
an "oH year" in the northern part Of
the state. assert that it is an off year
for both parties, and even in localities
where Smith sentiment apparently has
increased since the last election the
ratio of Miller superiority will be un-
changed from that of two years ago,
since the Democratic movement, they
assert, contains more smoke than fire.
Syracuse Cited as Example
The place cited as an example of this
fact by Republicans in touch with the
northern tiers situation is Syracuse,
the Governors home town. There has
hecn a good deal of Democratic talk of
the possibility Of Governor Miller's
losing Syracuse. based mainly on the
fact that at the last Mayoralty elec-
tion the town chose Democrat All
the explanations that Ex-Governor
Smiths supporters build on this
ground, it is declared are mere propa-
ganda, because the Democratic Mayor
of Syracuse was elected on split
ticket as the result of purely local
feeling that the local Republican lead
ers needed little friendly chastising
at time when only local issues were
at stake. This year, it is said, the Re-
publicans of Syracuse, having estab-
lished to their own satisfaction the
fact that they are the masters of their
own bosses when they want to be, will
return contentedly to the fold and give
Miller a majority nearly as great nu-
merically as they did two years ago.
Much of the reported Smith senti-
mcnt in the northern tier, it is said. is
based on this same sort of distortion
Of domestic issue into nonresident
situation, which is then largely ex-
aggerated for effect.
Registration Here Encouraging
In connection with difficulties an
ticipated in getting the voters 10 the
polls on Election Day this year, State
Chairman George X. Morris, who was
here this afternoon, pointed out that

Ex-Governor Alfred e. Smith issued
a statement last night in reply to Gov

name specific act taken in hostility
to or out of sympathy with labor" The
statement follows:
First: He plunged the Labor De-
partment back into politics. He found
it governed by q bipartisan board. He
legislated them out Of office to provide
patronage for the Republican machine.
Second: He found it governed by
the Civil Service laws of the state. He
practically repealed those laws so far
as the Labor Department was con-
cerned. The effect of this was to de-
stroy the morale of the department. and
make political influence qualifica-
tion for office as against faithful,
honest and devoted service.
Inspecting Staff Reduced
''Third: He cut in half practically
the number of inspectors whose duty
it was to inspect factories and see that
the conditions maintained in them are
such as to protect the life, health and
welfare of the workers. BY this act
he has practically destroyed the eff
cheney of factory inspection in the

with the extraordinarily light registra-

advantage remains with the Repub-
licans, since registration is over in the
Democratic stronghold and the Repub-
licans have still two more days in the
sections where they are strongest in
which to qualify their supporters, be-
cause of the provision in the election
law which allots two days next week,
Friday and Saturday, in addition to the
days appointed last week for that pur-
pose.
Chairman Morris said tonight that
he intended to take full advantage of
the opportunity here presented. In
structions have been wired TO all the
county leaders to spare neither time
nor energy in getting the utmost pos
sible proportion of the Republican
vote in the upstate cities registered,
and the period between now and Friday
will see every available agency en-
listed in a drive to this end.
'The Democrats, believe, are much
surprised by Governor Miller's tao
ties" said the head of the Republican
committee. "They expected him to
confine himself to defending his admin
istration, but instead of that they find
that he has taken the aggressive and

Miller's Tour Successful
Governor Miller's position has been
much strengthened in the places he
visited by his tour, according to all re-
ports. What these people want to hear
about, everyone agrees, are the actual
issues of the campaign and that is
what he has been giving them. They
are tired of the usual bunkum."
Mr. Morris left here tonight for Buff
falo on a trip to the western counties,
during which he will consult with tho
county chairwen and local leaders and
will back up his already forwarded in
structions concerning an intensive reg
istration drive.
Governor Miller and his party leave
here tomorrow morning early for tho
second week of his tour. during which
the southern counties will be touched.
Tomorrow night he will talk at Bing-
hamton, Tuesday at Elmira and We'd
nesday at Hornell. Thursday he re-
turns to Albany to convoke the Board
Of Regents. This official duty dis
charged he will resume his campaign
at Rochester on Friday.
