Hi' reared on the rear platform, and, In n Intro-
Hjf- ; duetlon that was just lone enough to eolleot all
H& ;' the pooplo about the platform, laid:
Kf ', "QueonB county has had one Govornor In Its

i-Mil other sldo. whllo on both sides and directly In

' iWIC ' women wnvod tholr handkerchlofs-and they

Br p The subjects which aroused the people of
Wsll Long Island most, next to the lambasting of
H f i Oroker. were those which pertained to honest
Hi' t onrroncr, honest taxos, and honest admlnlstra-
Hf S tion of the public Works of the Btate. Every

9 j ' ngemont to tha man who darod talk plainly

HflflflflflBflflflBflt .a..,rfM?.-4Mig'i,i4jttLttlaa
vlllo Centre crowd, he was obliged to believe
that the cat and tho dog must have
, como along, too. Bo great a number of
people, he said, had not come out to hear
the District Attorney of Queons county make a
speech. It had come out to become acquainted
with that "open-hearted, courageous, free
American citizen, Theodore Rooseelt." Cheers
and cheers and morochcAra saluted Ool. Roose
velt as he removed his hat and waited for an
opportunity to speak. Out of tho crowd di
rectly beneath him a man with a Grand Army
hat worked out from among tho people and
held up a little boy. In whoso hands was a great
bunoh of purple and whlto crysanthemums.
" Take I" said the small boy. " Take 1" Col.
Roosevolt took them In one hand and with tho
other shook tho little brown raws that had
handed the flowers up to him.
" Say 'sank you I'" said tho small boy Im
periously, as he was carried back Into the
crowd. If Col. Roosevelt heard the command
his face did not show It. Probably he did not.
for. as if In anticipation of somo suoh remark,
the small bor was hustled back Into the orowd
, very fast.
" First of all." said Col. Roosevelt. " I want to
thank the donor of these'flowers. First, because
ho Is a small boy (and I like small boys), and
then because he Is a son ot a veteran ot the lato
war. A thing which has appealed to mo very
' much In this campaign has been the support ot
veterans. I approclato It a great deal."
By their cheers and hondclapplng. and still
moro by tho way they looked at ono anothor
and nodded. It was apparent that tho dozen or
moro veterans took Col. Roosovelt's words as
they woro meant. Once moro ho sailed into
Croker.
"I ask for your support." he said, "and base
my appeal on the enemies I have mado."
The people laughod and waited. "Go read
In thlsraornlng's papors what Mr. Crokersays."
he continued. "He complains about the man
agement of tho Police Department under my
administration. Thoro Isn't a gambler or a
purveyor of vice, who on the payment of black
mall may keep hla place open, who will not
oheer Mr. Oroker to tho echo for what ho haa
said about me. I am glad that they should."
"Throo cheers for Rooseelt IIIpl ninl"
shoutod a man out In the middle of the people.
Six cheers, shrill with the note of women's
voices, came where three were called for be
fore Col. Roosevelt could go on.
Leaving Mr. Croker for the time, the candi
date went Into a discussion of the masterly si
lence of A. Van Wyck on the questions of clean
judiciary and freo aller and national quostlons
generally. "lam willing to speak for myself."
ho said as the train started. "I am not afraid
to say where I stand on any Issue in this cam
paign. He doeen't dare to "
At Freeport the trala stopped where the main
street ot the village crosses the railroad track.
Directly above the Colonel's head as he spoke
waved a great Rooovelt and Woodruff banner.
There were twelve hundred people inthostreet
and on tho tracks. Prominent among them
worn men in soldlors' uniform. One of them
had tho brass numerals of the Seventy-first
New York Volunteers oh his campaign hat.
"I see over there," said Col. Roosevelt when
the applause had died away and ho had suc
ceeded in freeing himself from tho men who
were reaching through the railing around tho
platform to catch hold of- his hand, or, failing
that, any convenient part of his clothing, "a
man who was with mo at Santiago (there was
more cheering), a man ot the Seventy-first." he
went on. The choorlng had not quite died
down; now it swelled Into A roar nnd into a
shout thai ended in three great big cheers.
"Now. not for the sake of tho tlckot, but for
the National Guard I want to say this, and I
hope you will keep it In mind In all your deal
ings with the National Guard. In point of
courage, patriotism, and ready and splondid
devotion to duty I belloe that tho National
Guard has bound New York State to bring It as
an organization to the highest possible state ot
military efficiency."
Once more tho cheers rolled across the com
pact body ot listeners.
"It must have the best in point ot eqnlpmont.
armament, and system. My comrade over
thero remembers that after the first two days
of fighting before Santiago I sent to the Seventy-first
men. in order that they might bet
ter fight tho Spaniards. 100 smokeless powder
rifles that had been carried by men In my reg
iment who were killed or wounded. Cheers.
You will pardon me for saying that I am more
than pleased by the support given to me In this
campaign by tho National Guardsmen who
wero with me In the South."
The people began to applaud, but Col. Rooso
velt would not wait for them. "And now." he
shouted In such a tono that the applause
stopped short, "tho shadowy form of Mr. Van
Wyck has fadod away, and we see anpearinb
th rough It and taking Its place the burly form
of Mr. Croker, about which there Is noth
ing shadowy. Laughter and applause.
Eery debaucher of virtue, every pur
eyor of vice, every man who thrived
on an illicit business until he was put
out ot business by me Is bock in business now,
and will join In cheering Mr. Croker when he
condemns my administration of the Police De
partment. If Mr. Oroker desires to make him
self an issuo I certainly welcome him into the
campaign as such.
"I wish that my amiable opponent. Justice
Van Wyck, would answer just ono question on
a Btate Issue. I wish that he would toll ns
whether lie approves of his master's attempt to
degrade his former colleague, Judge Daly, be
cause Judge Daly had not sufficiently con
sidered Tammany Hall."
Then Col. Roosevelt whaled Croker some
more.
fit" I am glad to see." he said, "that Croker
wishes to regard himself as an issue. My ad
ministration of the Police Department was
meant to attract the hostility of such men an
Mr. Croker. I made it my business to proteot
business men, shopkeepers, and wholesalers,
Tammany has begun blackmailing business
men now. It is fitting that he should select this
tlmo to attack my administration."
Beveral hundred more people wero at Baby
lon station than there had been at Amityville.
A small stand had been erected on the side of
tho station opposite the railroad tracks. Col.
Rooseelt was escorted to It by Senator Hlgble.
He was greeted by round after round ot cheors
even before he mounted the platform, Aaaoon
as his gray hat and woather-worn overcoat ap
peared above the heads ot the crowd a negro
band which had been stationed right underthe
plafform. broke out In a flourish ot trumpets
stoppod short and yollod "Throe cheers for
Roosevelt!" It led the crowd In giving the
cheers. Tho colored men wavod tholr instru
ments at Col. Roosevelt and gave him anothor
cheer all by Uiomselves. Col. Roosevolt smiled
at them until the nolce stopped and then said:
" I am glad to bo greeted by tho colored band.
It was my good fortune at Santiago " Here
the band felt called on to cheer once more, and
the rest of the crowd followed Its example
with great cordiality. Col. Rooseielt was un
able to go on until they were through, when he
said:
"It was my good tortuns at Santiago to be by
the side ot the Ninth and Tenth Cavalry and to
witness the gallantry of the colored soldiers.
The Spaniards, as jou know, called them,
smoked Yankees; and a mighty good brand ot
Yankees they proved themselves to be."
Tbepeonlo of Babylon laughod just as loud
and just as long and cheered wltli just as much
vigor when Col. Roosevelt said: "Mr, Oroker
has trampled through the shadowy Mr. Van
Wyck and now stands forth In his own person,"
as had the peoplo at Amity Wile, at Free
port, at Rockvllle Centre and at Valley
Btreaii. By this time it was perfectly
apparent that it Mr. Oroker had any friends
on Long Island they didn't feel called onto
make any demonstrations In his defence. Col.
Roosevelt Introduced Mr. Rlls aa "one whom
in somo ways I consider the most useful citi
zen of New York, because he knows the city
from the inside, and can tell people about
it." As Col. Roosevelt stepped down from
the platform, an old negro womuu, who
had been murmuring and clapping her
Wedding Invitations.

Ait, u
i T
hands together wh(le he had been talking with
as muoh fervor as though ahe were at a camp
meeting, ran up and caught Col. Roosevelt by
the arm artd said : "The Lord bleM you, Colonel.
I most certainly do hope you Is elected."
This la In part what Mr. Rlls said !
"Unless you Interfere to prevent putting
tho brother of tho Tammany Mayor in our
City Hall Into tho Governor's chair, nothing
can prevent Tammany from gobbling up Btate
and city nnd all. so that little short of a.revc
Tutlon will got its hands oft our throat.
You who are old remember Tweed. If any
one believes that Tammany has had a ennngo
ot heart let him romombor.the case of Justice
Daly, who was sldotrscked bocauso ho would
not do tho bidding of the organization. That
is a Tammany test. .. .

unless ho Is. your nnok will be under the yoke,
a well as ours, for tho courts are the last bul

has Jurisdiction in Suffolk county as well as in
New York.
"When the Police Department was rotten
with Tnmmany corruption to the core a man
wns put Into It who In two years oleanod out
even that stable as far as ono man could.
"This man comes to you for your vots to

Island half a lifetime and I know my neighbors

know ho nover broke a promise, and never
wore a man's collar In his darg. And
he never will, mr friend Dr. I'arkhurst
to the contrary notwithstanding. The doc

many In 1807. I am fighting still on the same
tack, but tho doctor rcems for once to havo
been left behind. He says it himself. The
issue Is the same.exactly the same. It is Tam
many against doccncy.againsthonesty.agatnst
the man who had the strength and tho courage .
to, knock Tammany out before. I give my
votoo and mr vote for that man, Theodoro
Roosevelt, and so will you."
Mr. Youngs followed Mr. Rlls with a straight
out appeal to the voters of Babylon to stand by
the ticket and go to the polls on election day
no matter what tho weathor might be. Col.
Roosovelt aevotod his first two mlnutos at Bay
Bhoro, at Islip and at Patohoguo to an expres
sion of his personal thanks to the women of
those towns and other towns along the road
between Montauk Point and Now York who
had taken care ot his men at their homes when
theywere sick and helpless andunableto travel
the thousand miles to their own homes in the
West He delivered an eloquent tribute to the
American woman as she appearod In time of
war, and said that for her bravery and tender
ness and patience under long suffering she de
served no less praise than tho men who faced
the enemy's guns or the equally brave men
who suffered the awful monotony ot camp llfo.
By way of a passing kick at tho boss of Tam
many Hall. Col. Roosovelt remarked, amid the
unconfined expressions ot glee and approval
ot the Bay Shore populace, "Heaven forbid
that I should ever get his praise for anything I
should do."
At Bay Shore there were 1,000 people, at
Islip there were 800, and at Patohogue there
wore fully 2.000. The station at Patohoguo was
the most elaborately decorated of any that
was visited during the day. Ropes had been
stretched from each end ot the station plat
form to a telegraph pole behind the building,
and along these ropes hung as many six and
eight foot American flags as could bo strung
on them. In the light breeze that was blowing
the flags fluttered in continuous waves up and
down the long lines. Off in the fields some
where a big cannod boomed as often as It oould
be loaded and fired. Patchogue was tho town,
too. that was soloated tor the place ot
Col. Abo Gruber's first speech. Ho an
swered the Irresponsible nocusatlon that
lie was going to knlfo Col. Roosevelt at
the polls. Nearly all the way to Patchogue
from Long Island City it had been observed
that Col. Gruborwaa busily stndylng a small
Bible. Whon he walked out to tho edge ot the
platform that had been ereoted near the sta
tion and bad returned in kind the salutations
of the young women who wav ed their hands at
him and told him ho was cunning. Col. Gruber
said very seriously:
"Dr. Farkhurat. I understand, says that ho is
going to vote for Ool. Roosevelt, while I and
other friends of Gov. Black are going to out
him at the polls. I want to quote for Dr. Park
hurst's benefit from the third chapter of Prov
erbs, viz.:
" ' Trust In ths Lord with all thins heart, and laa
not unto tblno own understanding.' "
The small statesman paused for somo time
after reading this text In order to let It sink
well, and then ho wont on to make one of his
regular, slapdash, sassy, turned-up-at-both-ends
speeches, which ho wound up by saying
that this campaign had narrowed itself down
to a choice between Crokerism and patriotism,
and be wouldn't Insult the people of Patchogue
by attempting to tell them which to choose.
There were three hundred or four hundred
people at West Hampton. People who knew
evory man in tho crowd said that somo of them
had driven twelve mllos through the sand to
be at the meeting. Col. Roosevelt said:
"My worthy opponent does not daro
mention the name ot an honest judi
ciary on the platform because his own
audience would laugh him to scorn If he at
tempted to." At Southampton thero wore 800
people and at Bridgehampton there were 400.
At every station Col. Roosevelt slapped and
hammered and punched at Croker for half of
his time and for the rest ot It talked on tho
National Guard, on the canals, on the Raines
law, on tho cutting down of tax rates, on the
silver question, on national expansion, onlabor
conditions, and In fact on every possible issue
that could be brought into the campaign. He
took the utmost oare. however, to speak of
Croker first, so that If by any chanco the train
was started before he was through speaking
he wonld at least havo left nothing unsaid in
regard to his opinion of the king ot Tammany
Hall.
At tho end of the Sag Harbor branch of the
line a big platform had been ereoted that over
looked the endot Bag Harbor's main street.
The street itself was filled with people. There
were not less than 2,500 people within
the sound ot the speakers' voices. Col.
Roosevelt's speech to them was substan
tially the same, so far as Mr. Croker was
conoemed, as those he had delivered before and
to New York readers his views on ths other
questions are by this time thoroughly familiar.
It is enough to say that the people of Sag Har
bor oheered what he had to say about tho
canals and about tho National Guard every
bit as long and as loud as did tho
peoplo of Jefferson county, ' ot Erie
county or of Kings, and in those coun
ties the cheering was just exactly tho same
sort ot choorlng that has been heard every
time that Col. Roosevelt has spoken right here
In New York during the last three weeks.
After the "all aboard" whistle had been blown
and the party was all on the special train there
was some hitch about starting. Tho audioiico,
that had been shut off by a high fenco from the
railroad yards, broke through and came down
to tha train to shout goad-by and gbod luck.
Mr. Payne, Mr. Gruber and Mr. Youngs also
spoke at Sag Harbor. ' '
For an hour and a halt the train ran down
toward the centre ot the Island and then up
again on tho north side to Greeuport. One or
two stops were made on account of a hot box on
one of the parlor cars, but after them the engi

and made up the time that had bsen lost by the
time the train reached Greenpori. The train
ran Into a forest of flags at Greenport, A band,
a Grand Army post and a large number of vol
unteers carrying Springfield rifles were all
mixed up together, and as the train rolled
slowly in among them the volunteers let dff
their rifles lato the air until the barrels ot their
guns became too hot for comfort. Th'en they
cheered and yelled and joined tho veterans

talked for the most part on tha Raines law and
on the necessity for having a Btate administra
tion that was honest enough to say how It stood
on free silver before election day.
At Mattltuck 400 peoplo oheered and yelled
around the train until Col. Roosevelt begged
them to give him a chanco to talk. The roots
of freight cars near the track were lined with
men. Ono ot them was a Van Wyck man and
he'sald so repeatedly, Ool. Roosevelt paid no
attention to the man until ho began to yell.
"It will baa sorry day for yon when election
day comes."
Then ho turned and looked his Interrupter
over carefully.
"You are a good Van Wyck man." he replied,
cheerfully.
" You are drunk." The man on the car said
nothing for about two minutes. Then when
Col. Itoosovolt wa saying that Mr. Van Wyck
did not dare mention on the stump the name of
the man for whom he oted at tho last election,
the man on the car ahoutod with unveraelous
exaggeration:
" He mentions it every day of the week."
Col, Roosevelt replltd to the orowd this time
and said:
"It is perfectly evident he Is a good Demo
crat; ho has all the symptoms,"
At Rtvorhead thoro wero over 2.000 people,
at Farmlugdale 400. at nicksvllle 1.000. at
MIneola 400 and at Jamaica well over 3,000.
The stand at Jamaica was somo distance from
the station, near Pettlt's Hotel. Ool. Roosevelt,
Mr. Rlls. who lives near Jamaica, and several
others spoke thero at great length amid un
bounded enthusiasm. Thore wero small meet
ings at Winfleld and Corona on the way to
Flushing.
Col. Roosevelt's reception at Flushing was a
warm one. For ono hour before hs arrived at
tho old Methodist Church whoro the meeting
was hold tho place waa packed to Its utmost
capaolty with a crowd whose enthusiasm was
ot a kind nevor seen in Flushing before. It
cheered and cheered every tlmo Col. Roose
velt's name was mentioned beforo the candi
date's arr(val, and went Into ecstasies when he
finally got thoro. Hats, canos and umbrellas
went up in the air, men shoutod themselves
hoarso and womon waved their handkorchlofs
and did their best to make themselves hoard.
Outside of the church wero nearly a thousand
people, and when the side doors of the place
wero opened to admit Col. Roosevelt and his
party thoro was a rush ot men and women to
get In.
It didn't require a force of police to keep
thorn back. They ran up against a solid wall
of humanity which thero was no breaking, and
they didn't get In. Tho crowd pleaded to have
tho door loft open so that it could hear what
Col. Roosevelt had to say, but aa thero waa a
heavy wind blowing tho request could not be
granted and the door was shut.
Thoro was the same trouble at the main en
trance of tho church. Men and women fought
for places, but fought in vain. The managers
ot the meeting did thetr best, but, confident as
theywere ot a big meeting thoy had no Idea
that it would assume the proportions It did.
It was fully flvo minutes after H. Homer
Moore, tho Chairman of tho meeting, intro
duced Col. Rooseelt that ho got a chance to
speak. The crowd simply would not atop
cheorlng. Every time the majority of the au
dience showed a disposition to quiet down
some enthusiast would yell out: "Three cheors
for Teddy I" and then the wholo church would
take it up and begin cheering again. The out
side crowd was finally quieted by spoakera who
left the church to talk to It, and then tho peo
ple Inside settled down to hear what Col. Roose
velt had to say. The candidate was constantly
interrupted br cheers aud remarks. His ref
erences to Richard Croker brought yells ot
" Soak him. Teddr I" " Give It to him I" and " Ho
can't own Flushing It ho does own New York."
There was tremendous npplause whon he re
ferred to the necessity of an honest and up
right judiciary, and tho montlon ot thenamo
of John McCullagh as tho best and honestest
Chief ot Police New York evor had was tho
slpnal for a remarkablo outburst.
One thing that Col. Roosovelt told his audi
ence that tloklod it mightily was that despite
Mr. Croker's assertion that crime was rampant
in Now York while be was Presldont ot the Po
lice Board, a Judge, in charging the Grand
Jury just prior to his withdrawal from tho
board, said that the city was never so freo from
vice and crime as It was at that time. This
provoked a storm ot applauso for Col. Roosovelt
and long and continued hissing for Croker.
This is Col. Roosevelt's speech at Flushing:
COL. eoosetelt's speech at tlusiuno.
" More and more during the last fortnight we
have been brought face to faco with our real,
not our nominal, opponent. Burly Mr. Croker
has shouldered nice Mr. Van Wyck aside and
appears as the leador in name, as he already
was In fact Mr, Van Wyck is alowod to con
tinue to talk about the canal, concerning which
he can say not one word ot value, can mako
not one promise beyond what I have said and
mado. Ha dares not frankly dlaouss one slnglo
Issuo which Is an issue one issuo concerning
which thore is difference of 'opinion. Our op
ponents decline to speak of froo sliver because
tbey say it is not an Issue, though every man in
the Btate knows that it is an issuo, and that
those who say it is not are uttoring a silly un
truth which they do not believe, and whloh
thoy only utter because they dare not say what
they do bellevo. If Mr. Van Wyok only wishes
to discuss State issues, why does he not touch
the most Important ot all State issues, the in
dependence and uprightness of the judiciary.
Why does he not say whether or not he ap
proves of Mr. Croker's conduct in turning down
Judge Daly, Mr. Van Wyck's colleague on the
bench. beoauBe Judge Daly was fearless and
upright and would not bow the knee to Bail ?
Does he approve of refusing to advanoo Judges
to high office bocause they decline to 'recog
nize their obligations to Tammany Hall'?
Every issue ho raises, from canals to the ex
cise. I fully meei. Why does not he meet such
vital Issues as those of honest money and an
upright judiciary? (Cries of "He doesn't
dare I")
"But Mr. Van Wyck Is not the real candidate.
My real opponent Is Mr, Croker, and, unlike
Mr. Van Wyck, he is willing to raise all kinds
ot Issues, and ho Is himself an issue. He does
not speak ot honest finance, and nobody wonld
pay any heed to him If he did, for he knows
nothing about it,
"But having attaoked Judge Daly and at
tacked the Bar Association, ho now attacks
me, and I will meet him a good deal more than
half way. If he wishes to pit himself against
me he shall be gratified. He attacks my ad
ministration ot tho Police Department. I
should be sorry, indeed, if it had morited
his pralao. Mr. Croker invoked the testi
mony ot Twoed against Judge Daly, and
now he himself testifies against me. Well
he may. Ho says. In effeot. that under my ad
ministration crimo wont unpunished. 'That
statement Is simply untrue. Near tho close ot
my two years' torm of service the presiding
Judgo ot the month In the Court of General
Bossions stated that crlmo had diminished un
til it was loss than ever before in recent years.
Mr. Croker does not really object to what we
did with orlme. What really makes that galled
jade wince is what we did with vice. (Pro
longed cheering.)
"The acknowledged financial partnership
existing between certain leaders of Tammany
Hail and protected vice Is the scandal and dls
graoo ot New York. It was on this that I
warred. I broke up that partnership and I
will break it up again whenever tho chance
comes, let Mr, Croker cry never so loudly,
Evory achoothouse, every church and syna
gogue, every honest Industry knew that
it had in me a stanch friend; every la
boring man, every mechanic every merchant
or business man, wholesale or retail, knew that
I wished to seo him prosperand receive justice,
and to save him from blaokmail. It is small
wonder that I should bo denounced by those
who exaot tribute from purveyors ot vice, who
rob the honest poor, and who care as little
for civic prldo as they do for decency and moral
ity. Every pun eyor of vice who piles his vllo
trade unmolested in consideration of tho black
mall which gives the true reason for tho exist
ence of the wide open ' policy ovory suoh man
'enters Mr. Croker to the echo when bo attacks
us because we mode tho police force honest It
Is fit that Mf. Croker, now seeking to corrupt
and degrade the behoh. should rati at the men
whodrovoout corruption from tho Police Do
partm snt (Hisses for Croker.)
"He now runs the olty through one(of his
delegates; and. swollen with the power whloh
this gives him, virulent in his brutality, he
tries to strike down an honest Judgo because
that Judgo is not his cringing sycophant If.
through another delegate, ho gets control of
tho Btate, the honest men of the Btato may ex
pect evil times Indeed, (Moro hissing for
Crokor.)
"Tammany now blackmails vice; but It has
alroady again begun to blackmail honesty
whore honesty Is helpless. If It gets tho power
It will extend its system of corruption all
through the Btato. This was dono once beforo,
whon Tweed was dictator; It behooves tho
good peoplo ot tho Btato to seo that It Is
not dono now. Mr. Croker's Governor could
sond Mr. Croker's Judge to any part of the,
Btate, and if Mr. Croker's Mayor wore charged
with malfeasance it would again be Mr. Cro
ker's Governor who tried him. What a trav
esty on justice such a trial would be I Mr.
Crokor, through his tools, turned out

During his entire tourof thaStatqCol. Rooso
velt has not met with a more cordial rocoDtlon
than ho got last night at Long Island City. At
overy ono ot the halt dozen stations that his
train passed after leaving Flushing thore woro
red and green lights burning and a crowd pt
people, who didn't expect to see the candidate
but just wanted to let him know by thelrcheers
as his train rushod by that thoy were with htm.
There woro over 3,000 people In big Puritan
Hall on Borden avenue, and they, had been
there nearly two hours before Col.' Roosevolt
arrived. Thore would havo been more people,
but eyen the mammoth auditorium ot tho
Puritan Athletlo Club has a limit and that
limit was taxod lost night as It had never been
taxed before. ,
Itwasawlldlyenthuslastlo crowd. and It gave
Ool Roosevolt a royal welcome. It was several
minutes before Chairman George Rinperger
could even introduce tho candidate, and It was
some time after that feat had been accom
plished beforo Col. Roosovelt couloVqutet his
audience. Col. Roosevolt was very tired after
his long day ot speeohmaklng, and made a
very brief address. Ho began by telling his
audlenco how pleased ho was with tho wolcomo
accorded him. and said it was an added pleas
ure to speak on a platform on which he no
ticed thore was an officer ot the Seventy-first
Regiment ot New York city seated. He referred
to Lieut Alexander Williams of Company I,
Soventy-flrst Regiment, who llvos in Long
Island Olty and who Is an ardent Roosevelt
man. There was great cheorlng for both
Roosovelt and Williams, and then tho candi
date resumed.
He told his audloncs that the Republican
party stood for qlvlo honosty and an upright
and fearless judiolary. It also stood for sound
money, he said, and for the Administration.
Votero this year voted not alonoaa New York
ers, but as Americans. It was a campaign of
national as well as State issues, he said,
whereat there were more choors and cries of
"It is I itisi"
The great crowd rose up as one man and
yelled its good will as Ool. Roosevolt left the
hall. Speeches wore also made by Walter Stan

leaders In the State of New York were power
ful enough this year to ignore tho Chicago plat

will be called to elect delegates at large to the
Democratto National Convention, tbey must
indorse the Chicago platform of 1800. The
Democratic National Committee makes up the
temporary roll of the National Convention, and
the committee, controlled as It Is by the free
sllvorites, would refuse to admit the delegates
at large from tho State of New York unless the
State Convention sending them to the National
Convention indorses tho Chicago platform of
1800.
A vote for Van Wyok this year or a vote for

Hen's Democrntlo Association Meetings
The massmeetlng of tho Iluslnoss Mon's

night must have-been a disappointment for
those who had arrangod it Tho hall was com
fortably fillod ton mlnutos at tor the meetlnc
wns to havo begun, and nearly every one ro
malned until the principal speaker, David D.
Hill, had finished his addross; but the enthu
siasm of an old-time Tammany meetlnc; was
decidedly laoking. and more than halt the por
tions In tho audlenco hurried from the hall after
Mr. mil's speech.
There wero 200 polloemen from various pre
cincts, under Capt Thomas, on duty In and
about the hall. Thoy made an Impressive ap
pearance on the street as the audience gath
ered, and they also helped to fill the heads ot
the aisles and tho doorways after the speaking
began. Thore woro also two bands, one
in the upper gallery and ono outside.
Theodore W. Myers. Presldont of the Bustnoss
Men's Domocratlo Association, waa applauded
when he stepped on tho platform, followed by
tho speakers and sevoral ot tho 300 Vice-Presidents
ot the mooting. There was considerable
hand clapping and oheerlbc. and 'several men
and woman stood up and waved hats and hand
kerchlofs. Then thero was tho old question
and answer across tho hall: "Who's a Demo
crat?" " David B. Hill."
Mr. Myers was nominated Chairman, and
made a short address. Socrctary Julius D.
Mahr read tho names of some of the Vice-Presidents
ot tho meeting, a letter ot regret from
Grover Clovcland and a set of resolutions,
which were udoptod.
Mr. Hill was then introduced. His speech
was long, but its frequont bits of satire and Its
personalities wero woll recelvod. A printed
copy ot what ho was to say had beon sent to the
newspapers, but ho did not follow the toxt In
several places. While ho was In tho first para
graph about what were Issues and whatwere
not Richard Crokor took a seat in one of tho
boxos, and tho speaker had to wait for the
applauso to subside.
One of Mr. Hill's first statements was that
the declaration that a Democratic oleotion this
fall would be n repudiation of what has beon
accomplished in tho war with Spain was "rot "
and a desperate measure" in the Repub
lican campaign. Then he referred to his
former auvlco to knock down Superin
tendent MoCullagh and his doputles on
election day. Ha said ho neither apol
ogized for this remark made in Brook
lyn nor retracted it. but was thero to reiterate
land defend it He said tho right to vote was a
sacred right and he quoted the Constitution to
prove it. and also said a person might resist
unlawful arrest as he might resist being
robbed. Then he explained that he was not
talking about the arrest of any one who had
really broken tha lnw. and not to tho persons
really likely to bo arrested.
"It will be observed." ho said. " that I was
speaking in Brooklyn, and am now speaking ot
the rights of citizens who in seeking to register
or vote havo committed no crime, but have
simply endeavored to exercise tholr lawful
constitutional privileges. I have no advice to
offor any ono else. I havo not considered what
rights. If any. violators of election laws mar
have in respect to arrests by McCullach's al
llogod officials or by the regular police. The
question hops not concern me nor my party."
IIo said .that ho fully expected that unlawful
arrests would be attempted, nnd he supposed
that Superintendent McCullagh would under
take to make u large number of them at tho
last moment "Has it occurred to you," ha
asked, "that McCullagh aboo all other men Is
IntcroBtod in having trouble on election dav?
How else can tho creation of his office be
justified? If no considerable number of ar
rests are made now or on that day. tho
noeesilty for the continuance of the law and of
his retention In ofllco will not bo apparent He
must be offensively active; he must bo osten
tatious In his zeal: hojnustdo something dar-.
ing. reckless or outrageous; ho must attract
public attentl6n lusomo startling manner: he
imust Induco tho public to believe that he has
saved It from huge contemplated Democratla
frauds, or eo the law itself and McCullagh
himself will both be regarded as failures "
Mr. Hill then specified, an his objections to
tho Metropolitan Election law, that (twos an
Insult to tho peoplo ot this city, n, pernicious
precedent It violated home rule, it centralized
power, it churned the State with local exponses.
it was enacted for at least a statod length of
time, and it was a wrong remedy. '
The silver question. Mr. Hill said, could be
loft till 1000 He evidently thought, however,
that It would need discussion at that time. Tho
duties of Democratic Congressmen, as Mr.
Hill outlined them last night would ssorn to be
to check schemes of national aggrandizement
and extension.
Mr. Hill referred to " wide-open New York "
in a very adroit mannor. and his audience
Innghcdashooxadedtheroalissuu in a char
acteristically skilful fashion. He said:
"They make the terrible charge that this

whatever that may moan. What do those
people want? Would thoy prefer to have this
city 'shut up' and 'olosod' like a 'deserted
"village.' or a Chinese town with a wall around
it, or like Tom Piatt's national bank In Orrego
'closed'?
"Yes. this great cosmopolitan city Is open
wide open, It you please open to the good poo
plo ot every climo and overy land, open to tho
commerce of the whole world, open to the
business men of every Btate, open to evory

" It Is a great froo city free from prejudice,
from bigotry, from hypocrlsr. from 'onvy,
hatred nnd mallco and all unoharitableness;' it
Is tho pride ot the Now World, progressive
Jet conservative, liberal yet economical.
ts exalted position, its wealth. Its va
ried resources and .its political activities
necessarily make New York the target
of evory miserable, political adventurer who
wishes to attroot public attention to himself by
hurling foul calumnies at its fnlrnsmo. If any
resident ot this active, bustling and enterpris
ing cltr dislikes its wide open character and
sighs for some aulot and peaceful abode, he
is at liberty to leave it: he can bottle himsolt
up and "move on to Oyster Bay. Botany Hay,
or any other place in this wide, wide world "
Enthusiasm wits dying away toward the close
of Mr. Hill's aneech. hut ho worked some up by
mention of Admirals Dewoy. Sampson and
Hch ley. Gen. Whoeler, Lieut Hobson. Private
Anthony and other men prominent in the
war. . Then he said that Col. Roosevelt

received permission to raise a roglmonc

audience yelled, "Because thoy needed a can

Yet no woman should despair on account ot
her weakness and ill health. It is to such
womon, bent and bowed under the weight of
nervous and physical allments.that Dr. Greene's
lecturo brought again tho light of encourage
ment, hope, faith faith that thero Is a cure,
that thero Is no cause of dlseaso.howover great
the weakness and however muoh tho suffering,
which is npt within reach of his skilful treat
ment and cure by his wonderful remedies.
Aud it is in regard to theso man ellous veg
etable mediclnos which Dr. Greene has discov
ered and compounded for tho euro ot disease
that wo wish to speak most particularly and
emphatically. Whllo Dr. Oreeno is recognlred
at the present day as the most suocessful physi
cian in the cure of all forms of nervous, onronla
or lingering complaints, and while from his
vast experience In having the largest medical
practice in the world among the slog and suf
fering;, his profound knowledge ot diseases nnd
his skilful treatment are unsurpassed by any
other physician, still we bolievo that Dr.
Qreone's truly romarkablo and astonishing
success In curing complaints of all kinds i
irlnclpally due to the grand curative virtues ot
lis wonderful remedies those great and most
valuablo medical dlscoverlos ho has mads
among harmless vegetable medlolnes, the true
remedies of nature which a wise Providence
ordained for relief from human ills anil which
always cure and aro curative in their very
nature and action.
Dr. Oreene has wondrous succoss in curing
diseases with the purely vegetable medicines,
harmless but sure In their action, remedies
which cannot possibly Injure the system In nny
way and rot are powerful in restoring health
and absolutely certain In their health and
strength giving propertios. Dr. Oroene does
not employ In his treatment of the sick the
poisonous drugs used by ordinary physicians,
and whloh not only fall to cure nervous and
chronic diseases, but often do injury and irrep
arable harm. ,
It Is slmnlrastoundlnr to the ordlnerr nh.
server who realizes for the first tlmo the quick,
sure, nnd positive action of Dr. Qroene's system
of medicine in curing disease, and experiences
their almost magical power in making tho sick
well, banishing pain, weakness, suffering and
disease giving to tho well-nigh discouraged
and disheartened sufferer a now hope, a new
' happiness In tho vigorous enjoyment of perfect
and robust health.
And another matter of greatest value and
moment to the people Is that Dr. Ufoeno enn ba
consulted-absolutely free, without ohnrge or -.
fee of any kind. Consultation, examination " 1
and advice are entirely free to the people. You
are welcome to call, or write to Dr. Ureono
about your case absolutely without oost to you

New York City, where all aro welcome and

and odvico. Dr. Greene's laboratory. In which
are com pounded and prepared these most vv on
derful health-giving mediclues, is ono of the
largest medlclno manufactories in tho world.
For tho benefit of the thousands who live at
too groat a distance to make it convenient to
call at the office, or those who for any other
roason prefer to write to the doctor for consul
tation and advice about their cases. Dr.
Oreeno has completod and perfected the most
successful system ot treatment through letter
correspondence which tho world has ever
known. Tho doctor's wide experience among
dlsoases, his great knowledge of symptoms and
tholr meaning, and his ability to understand
cases and conditions described to him by lettor,
mako It absolutely certain that the majority of '
cases can be cured at their homes. Thoy have

made and get an accurate knowledge of what
is the matter without cost of any kind. The

Sis Ideas of "the Credit and Honor of the
Nation" from Ills Own Letter.
Elliot Danforth, the candidate for Lltuten-ant-Oovernor
on the Van Wyck brothers and
Croker's ticket puts the situation tersely
Here Is an extract from a letter written by him
to a friend In this city and made publlo on
Tuesday:
" I note what you say In regard to the credit
and honor of the nation, and all that sort of
thing. It sounds very well, but free silver has
come to atay, and you had bettor climb on the
bandwagon pretty quick or you will go, led
and it you want a position at Washington the
sooner you doclare yourself (or Dryan and .
Bewail the better it will be for you."
Note the words. " the credit and honor of t lie
nation. It sounds very well," and Mr. Dan .
forth virtually adds, "To Hades with It!" U f
not a vote for Danforth a vote cast In sympathy I
with this sentiment, and nothing eUel
