DRY WTHDRAWS IN
 NEW YORK CONTEST
Dr. Seward, Republican, Thinks
 Smith Will Win

New York, Oct. Rl-The active
 republican campaign for governor
 and United States senator opened
 today with an independent repub- i lican withdrawn from the triangular gubernatorial race, predicting defeat
 for the regular candidates of his party.
 l pr. Frederick W. Seward. dry in- dependent republican. withdrew yes terday declaring that Gov. Alfred E. Smith, wet and democratic, would he reelected over Representative Ogden L. Mills, moist and hepub-
 lican.
 pr. Seward also forecast that Sen ator James W. Wadsworth. Jr., would lose his seat and the repub- lican state leadership, thereby fore ing a reorganization of the party along lines more suitable to the drys. He urged support of Frank
 lin W. Cristman. dry independent republican candidate for senator.
 Mills lost all chance of defeating ''iiIlli VI lICil llt i4llouhN'u blloI ilN would be guided in office by the results of a state referendum this 'fall on state determination Of the alcoholic content of beverages, in the opinion of Seward, who declar- ed he did not wish his withdrawal Ito be construed as an endorsement of either Smith or Mills.
 If I had run as an independent candidate, when Mir. Mills was de- feated he would have blamed my supporters for his defeat. The onus of defeat now rests upon him and his wet associates, where it rightly belongs"
 Senator Wadsworth and Mir. Mills beginning their campaigns today week ahead of the democrats. eS- pect to concentrate their attacks on Gov. Smith. running for fourth term. In their addresses accepting the nomination last week, both can didates emphasized the fact that Governor Smith is member of Tammany Hall.
 Prohibition was temporarily dele gated to the background by the re- publicans. although the democrats have indicated that they will keep bringing up the issue so as to en- phasize what they term the "strad- ding position" on it taken in the republican platform adopted in the state convention.
 Senator Wadsworth, the first of the candidates to start his campaign tour. was down for an address in Canandaigua, Ontario county, this noon, after motoring from his home at Geneseo. Livingston county. Later in the afternoon he was due in Gen. eva, and tonight he will speak in Auburn, remaining there until to- morrow. He will then swing north to Oswego. Watertown and Ogdens- burg, with night meetings in each place.
 Mr. Mills, who had not replied last night to Dr. Stewards prophe- cies, will speak tonight at the Brook Iyn industrial exposition in the Grand Central Palace. Tomorrow at 2 D. m, he will leave for Newbursh where his first night speech will be delivered.

EIGHT STATES AND REFERENDJMS

Of the eight states which are to have referendums upon the prohi- bition question at the November election, not all are certain to be carried by the antis. In some Of them there will be a battle Of con sequence on account of the paucity of large cities, in which the vets arc usually strong. The states which are in doubt are Colorado, Montana and Nevada. In the other states having referendums-Cali- fornia, Illinois, Missouri, New York and Wisconsin --- the large cities will have 8 deciding influence, al though this i. not saying, of course, that everyone in the large cities votes wet.
 That the battle will not go by default to the vets in any of the states where referendums in some form are being voted upon is in dicated by the activity of the W. T, c. U., which works quietly, per haps. but is a power among the women. It Is learned that this or ganization has 500, 900 members in these eight states, and is con- centrating upon plans to get out "10O-per cent dry vote" That means great many more women will vote than ordinarily. Probably they do not hope for Hooper cent results in either New York or Illi- nois, but have a fair fight on their hands in the other six states,
 In three of the states-Missouri, California and Montana the pro- posal is 10 repeal state enforce ment acts. But in effect the vote is a referendum upon prohibition.
 Interest In the east, so far as the wet and dry argument is concern ed, no doubt hinges upon the cam paign in New York state, where the drys are hacking F. W. Crist- man, independent and dry, against Senator Wadsworth. The latter is wet to the core, yet 1t is doubtful whether he will induce many wet Democrats to leave their party to vote for him. He is faced with a hard battle against Justice Wag- ner
 These referendums may serve some useful purpose, but the only kind of referendum that will bring results is one held In Congress. If the vets can obtain sufficient strength in Congress to make headway it would mean immeas- ura ply more than any of the state referendums, although the latter may serve the purpose Of opening the eyes of some of the adamant senators and representatives, If productive Of wet victories.

ACCUSES MINISTER'S

(Continued from First Page)

what I wanted to say was. The
 Lord gave and the dirty, filthy. evil
 disease breeding fly took him away. Cursed be the name of the fy.' | T think straightforward manli- ness and common honesty and re- spect for Almighty God ought to
 make us quit blaming God for our
 own failure and stupidity and ignor- ance. In those days I was respon- sible for the death of little babies. The minister who puts the mother to sleep by telling her that God | takes away her children is responsi- ble for the death of babies-he does
 not tell the truth and give her a chance to save them. I was respon- sible for the death of little babies and was blaming God.

 Typhoid fever comes from one cause only, that of eating or drink
 ing sewage. In Chicago many peo-
 pie died of typhoid ntil they changed the direction of the city's
 sewage. People were getting the ] sewage from Lake Michigan back into their drinking water.
 T visited town one time when
 I was speaking on a Chautauqua circuit where the death rate from typhoid fever was about 50 a year. I asked them why they didn't hit their people on the head with an axe. If they insisted on killing them the axe was quicker and almost as sure. Typhoid isn't a disease, it's crime. It's no worse to kill a man by hitting him on the head with an axe than to kill him by feeding him glass full of typhoid germs. It is absolutely unnecessary for anyone ever to have died of typhoid fever.
 Another form of tyranny Is that of poverty. Some folks think God made some people to be rich and others to be poor. Quit this foolish twaddling, I say poverty is a tyrant and it is. Many a boy who would have gotten somewhere and been 8 blessing to society has been crushed with the burden of poverty.

THE ILLINOIS IINEJP

p4AN4L5 III lllAllO4GI iS neal V everyone knows, is about the quin- tessence of rottenness. This is pe- culiar, too, as for decades much reforming of a sort has been att tempted in Illinois. What was the Lorimer shakeup but the result of a reform wave, largely instigated at the time by the Chicago Tri- bune? And since that day a large and powerful Con paper). reform organization In Chicago has an- nually gone 10 great lengths to tell the voters what candidates to vote for, this being abetted with much force by the Chicago News. Both of these great metropolitan dailies are opposed to chicanery and boss rule in politics. The Chicago Jour nal Is also obsessed with high Ideals. And throughout the state there are a horde of hard-hitting journals who make a business of walloping the bosses.
 But in spite of all this, Illinois has furnished 8 curious spectacle. In no stat. has the evil of politics at its worst seemed to be more firmly entrenched. This perhaps is aided by the long-drawn opposi- ton between @"down state" - as everything south of Chicago is termed and the Cook county politicians, which includes Chicago. Chicago regard. the reforming ele- ment as being in league with the downstaters to the detriment of Chicago; and the downstaters re- gard the high minded Chicago re- form element as big-city high-hat- ters with whom they really have nothing in common.
 There being so much disgust manifested against Frank l.. Smith, the Republican candidate for the U. s. Senate, and George E. Bren- nan, the Democratic candidate for boss. that a reform candidate, sponsored by all the best people identified with honor In politics, has made his appearance. He is Hugh s. Magill. His name i5 placed on the ticket under the Illinois law.
 Now If anyone wants to see just how far reform and anti-corruption can get in Illinois it will be inter esting to watch how large the Magill vote turns out 10 be at the election. The worst that he can do, In the estimation of many observ CTS, is to encompass the defeat of Smith, the Republican candidate and beneficiary of Sam Insults bounty during the primary. That he can defeat Brennan is not like ly.
 Brennan's strength lies in being dripping wet, and he expects to get enough votes in Chicago to squelch the downstate drys. Bren- mans followers have accepted Magill's candidature with enthusi- asm; for Magil is dry. and will split the dry vote which ordinarily would go to Smith, who has come out for strict enforcement of pro- hibition,
 The reformers In Illinois, there fore, are paving the way for Boss Brennan to a United States sena- tor. The Chicago dry vote and the downstate dry vote are now di- vided; while all the vets, both Chicago and downstate, will con- centrate upon Brennan.
 Control of the L. s. Senate, the Republican national committee ad- mitA will depend upon the election of only one senator. Until Magill got Into the fray In Illinois, Smith of that state was regarded as the likely winner Now
 It is mixup of vast significance to the Republican party.
