Communication Difficult.
It was learned from Mr. Post tna.t the
temble anxiety that prevailed for their
safety might have b^n shortened several
hours had it not be»n for the difficulty
which they encountered in sending a tele

they reached. They were informed that
the wires did not work satisfactorily, until
several hours Liter the operator found out
who they were and then informed them
that the wires had been repaired.
Mr. Post was met by his sister. Mrs. E.

and it was to her that fie told the story
of the delay In sending the first message.
The sapper was consumed amid the liveli

them on their success.

Montreal, Oct. 2S.— The final stage of the
remarkable Journey of Augustus Post and
Alan R. Hawley, pilot and aid of the vic
torious balloon America 11. Into Canada
ended to-day with their arrival in Montreal.
The party arrived here at 7 o'clock. They
■were met by representatives of the Mont
real Automobile and Aero Club, and were
the guests of President Anson and the di
rectors or that organization at breakfast
at the Place Viper. They left the city on
the Delaware & Hudson Railroad at 10:55.
The breakfast was wholly informal. There
were no speeches, but some interesting side
lights on the trip were afforded during the
conversation.
■ We could have gone further." declared
Mr. Post, "but. as it was, we went a little
too f;ir."
"We were well equipped when we left the
America II." said Mr. Hawley. "We took
three blankets, three cans of Foyp, self
heating with lime; a small saw. instru
ments, arms, ammunition, six pounds of
biscuits and a bottle of peroxide."
"Peroxide— for what?" asked .-. reporter.
"Well, it is ■ secret." broke in Mr. Po.^t.
"but my friend Hawley la very keen on
natural history, and is always on the look
out for freaks for the Bronx Zoo. We
thought that if we could catch a muskrat,
dark in lor, what we had T. the bottle
might help it to be a f^eak of nature from

ROOT SOUNDS WARNING
Continued from first pace.
him because he 1b such a man aa th* people
greatly need-
Then takins: up the subjects of Mr
Roosevelt's attack on the courts and
"something called new nationalism." h"
said that within three months the people
who are worrying- about the attack on
th»> courts would see that they were
talking arrant nonsense. He had no
fear of an attack on the courts, and all
the talk was mere idle campaigning and
pretence. So far as he could see. he
continued. th<» only thing new in the
new nationalism was a renewed and
active sense of loyalty and duty to the
old doctrines ard old ideals of Amer
ican democracy.
Roosevelt Took People's Sid©.
Mr. Roosevelt's leadership at Sara
toga Senator Root ascribed to the ex-
President's taking the right side against
the Republican organization, and said:
Tt was not his fight— it was Governor
Huehes's tight; it was President Taft s
fight • it was' the fight of the voters against
the machine; it was your fight and mine—
the fight of every man who loves good gov
ernment and believes It essential to demo
cratic government that the great body of
the people shall have a full, fair and free
opportunity for the expression of their win.
With Mr. Roosevelt's aid and with his
leadership the voters of the party controlled
the convention against the organization and
timed the old organization out. They com
mitted the party in the great deliberative
assembly of its lawful representatives to
the principle? for which Governor Hughes
had ' contended and the policies for which
President Taft had declared. We ought to
be grateful to Mr. Roosevelt for the ser
vice he has rendered, and the voters of the
state ought to reap the fruits of the victory
he has helped them to win.
Having disposed of the criticisms of
Air. Roosevelt. Senator Root took up the
state issues in the campaign. The first
of these, he said, was the problem of the
great engineering works on which the
state was engaged. The state was
spending $100,000,000 on a barge canal,
he said, $.-.0,000,000 of state money on
good roads and as much more from
municipalities for the same purpose,
while an indefinite number of millions |
would be used for the removal of grade
crossings. He continued:
That work is being done honestly, faith
fully and efficiently. Its conduct is charac
terized by the qualities of the Hughes ad
ministration. The Republican party pro
ro^es to continue for the prosecution of this
work •<■•■ state Engineer. Mr. Williams,
whose uprightness and efficiency have been
proved, and for the great financial officer
of the Ptate it ha* nominated Mr. Thomp
son The Democratic party allotted these
two great offices to Tammany Hall arid
nominated for them men named by Mr.
Murphy. What Tammany Hall does with
contracts we may learn from the s>kene
case He has been indicted and tried for
helping- contractors to defraud the state.
Refers to Silence of D«x.
Another question of primary impor
tance, Senator Root said, was the con
tinuance of the Republican poll, of
just nd adequate supervision of trans
portation corporations under the Public
Service Commission laws. The Repub
lican position was plain, he said, be
cause that party had passed the laws,
while Tammany Hall's stand had been
shown by the votes of its representa
tives. Further than that the question
had been put specifically by Mr. Stimson
to Mr. Dix and Mr Dix had failed to
answer.
"We have fair notice, then," said Sen
ator Root, "that w« may look for a
reversal of this Republican policy of
Bvpt rvislon by public service commis
sions in case th* 1 Democratic party
< •>m"n Into power.""
Coming down to a comparison of the
two candidates. Senator Root called at
tention to Mr. Stimson'a record in the
prosecution for the government of trusts
: and railway companies in which 5338,000
', In fines had been imposed, and the prac
tice of rebnting brought to an end. But
this was only th« beginning, SenaTor
Root said Mr Stimson's prosecution
of the Sugar Trust and the Arbuckles
for customs frauds had resulted in the
recovery for the government of $3,433,
363 SS, and penitentiary sentences for
Hght 'officers and employes of the trust
and two government employes.
Dix Inconsistent on Tariff.
Senator Root referred to Mr. Btlm-
Bon's prosecution of Charles W. Morse,
and then took up Mr. Dix. saying:
What do we know about ilr. Dix, the
Democratic candidate? He is a reputable
cm tleman, a director in a Dumber of suc
crssful inonev making corporations, wHI
considered rjy"his friends and neighbors In
the City of Alnany, very cautious in his
Statements about himnelf and a little loose
in his statements out others. He han m'<
Dublic record* .-Hid h«- appears to have come
in < ontart with public matters of present
interest only on.^e.
[ -„.. point o f contact was the tariff. With
the vnst growth and complications of our
business w k*v« outgrown our method <»•
making tariffs. Nevertheless, this Congress:
mak* a pretty good tariff. i n.lt !• it the
average r : * t( of duty baa been hi •m 11 per
cent iless tlnn under the preceding tariff
and lews than under the Democratic VVllnori
law lender it more goods hay« been ad
tnltted frea of a" duty than ever before In
the history of our government— more free
eoods I an ever before, to an annual value
of r,v*r $100,000,000; and under it the gov
ernment revenues have bet-n made aiiequate
H r i(l ,i deficit has be«-n turned into i sur
plus*.
Tnen the Republican ' '■wier»ss Inaugu
rated ;i great practical •■••!. by providing
tor a permanent board of tariff experts to
pel .if the true faeti to whioh the prin
ciple «-.f protection is to be applied, and to
jirevent Consrees from aver again having
]to make a tariff upon the ex parte state
, merits of Interested persons.
. Now, the Democratic platform condemns
'. that law, and Mr. Dix personally de
] nouncf s it, and charges the Republican
party with had faith in not revising the
: tariff downward. Yet among the persons
! who crowded the halls of the national
• Capitol, making the lives of members of
I Congress a Hurden by their clamor against
downward revision of the tariff, were the
I representatives of Mr. Dixs Standard Wall
I Paper Company.
{ Isn't Dix Too "Adaptable"? He Asks.
Senator Root read from the records of
j the tariff hearings the letter of the paper
j Interests, asking: that the duty on wall
; paper be raised. Among: the signatures
; to the letter, he said, was the "Standard
j Wall Paper Company, W. A. Huppuch,
; first vice-president." He then continued:
This Is the same Huppuch whom Mr. Dix
I and Mr. Murphy have made chairman of
] the Democratic State Committee to aid Mr.
j Dix In denouncing the Republican party for
! not revising the tariff downward. What mi
i ferences are we to draw as to the .sincerity
: and good faith of the man who could take
; These two positions, one for his private in
; terests and the other as a candidate for
: effect on the public? Is this gentleman not
: rather too — I will say adaptable, to be an
ideal Governor of the state?
i
In conclusion Senator Root said: "Our
| party is sound and wholesome. Since
'■ the last election it has given, both in
Congress and in our state Legislature, a
! great array of wise and useful legisla-
I tion. The administrations of President
j Taft in Washington and Governor
' Hughes in Albany have been models of
| uprightness and efficiency. 1?" you be-
I lieve in Taft and Hughes and the men
; who with them and with you have been
rendering loyal service to the country
and to the state, then stand by them
with your votes.
"Some of you are thinking, because of
a temporary side wind of personal feel
ing and prejudice, of deserting the cause
for which we have been lighting together
r for many years, and giving aid and com-
I fort to all that you most abhor in poli
j tics. I beg of you not to do it. You
would gratify a momentary feeling, but
you would do a tfarm to your country
and to your state, and you would regret
I It hereafter."
Wadhams Indorses Stimson.
Ex-Judge William H. Wadhams. who
was introduced by the chairman, James
Cowden Myers, as the man who had
done more than any other for the cause
of direct primarif?s, Indorsed Henry L.
Stimson on the direct primary issues as
a man of the Hughes type, Imbued with
the principles of Charles E. Hughes.
He contrasted the clear and definite
programme of the Republican party on
that issue with the dubious pronounce
ment of the Democrats, as exemplified
In their platform, which must be read
in the light of the acts of the men who
represented that party in killing the
£iugh> direct primary bills.
Turning to the candidates Judge
Wadhams read portions of an article to
appear In "Collier's Weekly" this week
comparing John J. Kennedy's activities
as a Buffalo alderman with those of
"Hlnky-Dink" and "Bathhouse John"
in Chicago. }!<• asked how the people
would lik«_- a man of that type .is Treas
urer. *
Judge Wadhams produced a scrap
book, kept, he said, by a m.in who hail
been benefited by the forest preserva
tion of Northern New York, and read
therefrom of John A. Dixs connection
with the grab of the Forestry Water
Storage and Manufacturing Association.
He read from "The Ken York Herald*!
and "The World," which are supporters
of John A. Dix, denunciations of the
Lewis water storage hill, which, they
said, under the guise of a conservation
measure, aimed to despoil the state for
the benefit of th» pulp manufacturers.
The third name on the list of the men
behind the bill was that "eminently re
tractable man, John A. Dix," who was
denounced as a conspirator against the
public Interest.
"We are tired of eminent respectabil
ity which should not be eminent." said
Judge Wadhams. "and Is not respecta
ble. He who rod*- with the 'black horse
cavalry* once may ride again. While Dix
was planning to get hold of the public
domain Stimson was upholding law and
order and sending criminal* to J.n11."
Congressman Bennet. Controller Pren
dergast and Assemblyman Frederick A.

On Oix's Labor Record.
State Chairman Prentice had a word to
say on the latest statement from Mr. Hup
puch about the labor situation In the Dix
mills.
"I read in this morning's Tribune," paid
, Mr. Prentice last night, "a statement from
; Mr. Huppuch to the effect that the work
j men in the mills of the Standard Wai
' Paper Company have worked for sixty
I hours a week for the six months beginning
October 1 and fifty-five hours a wees for
the other six month?.
"Mr. Huppuch knows that since October '.
women have been working in the mills of
the Standard Wall Paper Company for six
ty-nine hours a week, and are now working
sixty-nine hours a week, and that boys be
tween the ages of sixteen and eighteen
years, to at least the number of ten. have
been working sixty-nine hours a week In
the factory of the Standard Wall Paper
Company at Northumberland, Washington
County."
Mr. Prentice said he had no doubt that
Mayor Gaynor promised Justice Keogh his
support, and he didn't think that either
the Mayor or the Justice would *leny that
Mr. Gaynor urged the nomination of Jus
tice Keogh. instead ot that of Mr. Dix, on
the Rochester convention.
As to the appeal for funds which was
sent out from Republican headquarters, the
state chairman said no letters had gone to
' women, as was stated in a morning paper
yesterday, and that there had been no
evasion of the law with respect to the let
| ters.
"The names were taken from a list of the
j Republican voters in the state." said Mr.
Prentice, "and It would have been impossi
ble to have gone over the lists, checking :
out the names of officeholders. If some of
the letters did get Into the hands of Civil ,
Service employes it wa.-* not the fault of
the -tat- committee, and If the opponents
of our ticket want to make an issue on
that I'll gladly right them."
Good Upstate Reports.
Mr. Prentice said he had been reeeivin?
good r«'P<>rt.s from upstate counties, and
though he was not prepared to give any
estimate as y»n h*> did -ay that he ex
pected Mr. Stimson and the whole ticket
to get from 6,000 to 8,000 more votes in l^rie
County than Governor Hughes got in 190$.

Henry H. Curran la making a corner-to

local in its application and which contains
a so-called "grandfather clause."
The original bill was filed last spring by
Annapolis negroes who had not been al
towed to register under a new law which !
was frankly acknowledged to have been
designated to eliminate the negro element
from Annapolis politics. The effect of the
application of th^ law was to deprive all
but a handful of the negro voters of the
state capital of their ballots.
To-day's decision was not rendered upon
the original bill, which was for money
damages, but upon a demurrer filed In be
half of the defendant registrars. It places
upon the latter, personally, liability for
damages should such be awarded follow
! ing the trial of the cause in chief, it is
understood that the case will eventually
find Its way into the Supreme Court of
the United States.
