THE GOODYEAR TIRE & RUBBER COMPANY, Akron, Ohio SULZER REPUDIATED BY BULL MOOSE “Wild Men” at Utica Conforence 8¢ Utica, et Davenport for Governor. Aug. 28.—The progressives pepudiated Sulzer yesterday, cast off | Hinman, resurrected the Armaged- don spirit of two years ago and in the face of wild cries from a handful of Sulzer boomers that the primary law was being knifed and the party’s gos- pel profaned nominated an all pre gressive ticket by ‘‘suggesting” candi- dates. Col. Roosevelt before the slate was officially adopted by the state com- mittee in the Hotel Utica conference fold State Chairman Robinson over the telephone that he would stump _the state for it in October and early November except for a few days. Attempt Fails Utterly. An attempt by William Halpin to stampede the conference into naming Roosevelt for governor failed utterly. For the Colonel sent word that if they picked him he would have to write a letter of declination. There were only six Sulzer votes. in the state committee of 75 ,men and women, and four of them were cast by proxies. But they raised a hulla- baloo all day and with their frantic efforts to prevent the conference from designating any candidates kept the meeting bciling until nearly 7 o’clock last night. One of the other speakers shouted that “‘Sulzer is a proved crook.” Hamlin Assails Sulzer. Chauncey J. Hamlin, who was Erie’s choice for governor and who had to give way to ex-Senator Dav- enport after William H. Hotchkiss had refused to stand for office, said in his speech accepting the nomina- tion for Lieutenant-Governor: “If the people are so foolish as to nominate Sulzer for governor I will | go on the platform in every progres- sive meeting and say I am his run- ning mate and he is the wo: faker who ever came into the state.” May- be everybody except the disciples of ‘the same old Bill” did not shout “You're right.” The test of the Sulzer strength ap- peared when the resolution asking candidates to enter the primaries was offered by William H. Childs of Brooklyn, chairman of the committee of twenty-one which selected the ticket and prepared the platform. The vote was 113 to 6 for the resolution. Ticket Not Nominated. Theoretically the ticket named yes- terday is not nominated, though the word was used continually. The con- ference ‘tried to enjoin criticism by approving this clause in the Childs resolution: ‘“Resolved, That the state committee also welcomes the circulation of peti- tions by others for any of the offices of the state ticket, to the end that the final selection of candidates shall be left to the enrolled voters on pri- mary day.” Ten days ago at Saratoga Elihu Root in a republican committee meet- ing said that the progressives were “wild men.” Yesterday William H. Hotchkiss, beating back the cheers that followed every word, said from the platform in the hotel ballroom: “I've kept pretty quiet in party af- fairs, but since the happening of two weeks ago (he referred to the stato- ment which caused the progressives to leave Harvey D. Hinman) I have felt it my duty to fight for the life of the white slave voters. There is one refuge for the Hughes men and the Cleveland men who believe that machine government must go, and that is to unife and crush it off the earth.” Hotchkiss Waras Root. “I purpose to serve notice on Elihu Root that the wild men are alive.” (Cries of “woof,” “'woof.” “wild men!”) “We believe in protecting our women and childrea against all who would wish to do them wrong. wild men in their A repr teins dares to say We should throw it in ‘Elihu, man and we are com- men’ to us! his teeth. Let our slogan b we are wild ing.’ " “Let the wild men make Hotckkiss governo=!” snouted a delasate. No, I'll help to siir them up, I won’t lead the fighting.” And with his own gavel—he was presiding temporarily—the ex-state chairman ended that line of talk. After speeches by Mr. Hotchkiss and Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt and Bainbridge Colby yesterday afternoon the real fun began. Referring to Col. Roosevelt as that “great and good man from whom all blessings flow,” Mr, Colby said of Sen- ator Root that “he reminded him of the English chancellor of whom it was said ‘his mission was to nip in the bud the spread of human improve- ment.” He has a spontaneous aver- sion to all reformers.” Straight Fight of the Wild Men. A moment later Mr. Hotchkiss was shouting: “It's going to be a straight fight of the wild men! Thank God for the term!” Wallace Thaver of Erie, catching the camp meeting spirit, cried: “Two | weeks ago we were in the' slough of || despond. Now We are raised to the old level because we have thrown away compromise and gone back to our own principles. How could we ever have thought of joining with the old party that shows no evidence of reform?” Thus far the | conference had for- gotten Col. Roosevelt. At the sugges- tion of Mrs. Grace Vanamee of New- burgh it decided to send him a “me: sage of greeting and encouragement.” “Is the progressive party scotched? | Are its principles scotched?” boomed Put Committeeman Speed of Ithaca. “No, no,” the wild men roared. Scorn for Gov. Sulzer leaped from William H. Childs when he presented his committee’s report. “Even Sulzer has recognized the spread of prohibition,” he said. “He has re- fused to take a drink. I wish he f . would also join the Anti-Tobacco as- sociation and refuse to take a chew.” The crowd laughed. Mr. Childs also said: gressive party has no “The boss, pro- but our generation. It is false that he wanted to lead the progressives back into the republican party. the party’s nominees are men of char: acter and ability. of a ship, he will be among the last ten to leave the progressive party.” Shocked By Shipwreck Talk, This vision of shipwreck shocked the 400 progressives and the applause wabbled. Mr. Childs read the list of “requested” candidates. Sulzer’s man Samuels protested: “We have no right to suggest candi- dates. The committee has exceeded the authority given it by the Hotel Astor conference.” “Objection overruled,” rasped State Chairman Robinson. Another Sulzer- ite, Cronin, almost tearfully said he could not believe he was in a pro- gressive gathering. He jabbed at the Childs committee and was hissed. “Oh, I've heard hisses before,” shouted Mr. Cronin. “They can’t stop me. I thought the progressive party was sincere and stood for the rule of the people. Why, even the old party boses compelled the enactment of primary laws to free the people! Murphy Will Laugh. “Barnes and Murphy would not dare to flout the voters as you are doing here. I say that the day you give this hand picked ticket to the voters you cease to exist as a potent political force. Oh, how Murphy will laugh, and how this will please Barnes.” The flve minutes rule caused Mr. Robinson to slap his gavel. “You'll have to shut more than me up before this campaign is over,” yelled Com- rade Cronin, “if you adopt this reso- lution. You are trying to say that the party is against direct nomina- tions by the pegple.” Many persons yelled ‘“Nonsense.” “The progressives will be driven to the old party.” (Chorus of ‘“noes.”) They gave Cronin three minutes more and he subsided wailing: *“You've got to leave your party if you do this thing.” Dr. Arthur Cozma of New York, also pro-Sulzer, shot up with a pro- test against the naming of candidates. “Woof! woof!” snorted the ex- moose, now wild men, and Cozma's shrift was short. “Sulzer is a wily schemer,” said Hays of Westchester. ‘“All he wants is to have us refrain from nominating any one here so that there will be many candidates, and with a minority vote there shall be forced on us a ticket headed by a proved crook.” (Applause.) About a thousand motions, counter- motions and amendments were then offered. The conference was steaming. Mr. Cronin was on his feet constantly. William Halpin declaimed ‘‘Sulzer's only stock in trade is his claim that he is a martyr. You will improve his stock by making nominations here.” Asks Removal of Steam Roller. “I suggest that the steam roller be taken out of the room,” observed Mr. Crenin solemnly. “If Mr. Sulzer's friends think we are worrying let them go out and put up a ticket against us,” put in County Chairman Bird of New York. Mr. Samuels falsettoed: “You are making the party the laughing stock of the state.” As originally offered, Mr. Childs’ resolution both committed the party to the policy of inviting candidates to enter the primaries and named the candidates. After three hectic hours the only change made was the splitting of the resolutions in two and passing each part separately. When Mr. Cronin sajd: “Not wishing to repudiate our platform, I vote no,”” some person bawled out, “Oh, shut up!” and was Teproved by the gavel of Chairman Robinson, who ran the meeting in a way that gave a chance to every man who had something pertinent to say. Sulzer Motion Ignored, A motion that Sulzer be invited to run for governor, which was offered as a challenge to the Sulzer “crowd,” Salts Is Fine For Kidneis, Quit Meat Flush the Kidneys at once when Back hurts or Bladder bothers. No man or woman who eats meat regularly can make a mistake by flushing the kidneys occasionally, says a well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which clogs the xiid- ney pores so they sluggishly filter or strain only part of the waste and poisons from the blood, then you get sick. Nearly all rheumatism, head- aches, liver tronble, nervousness, constipation, dizziness, sleeplessnoss bladder disorders come from sluggish kidneys. The moment you feel a dull ache in the kidneys or your back hurts, or if the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular of passage or attended by a sensation of scaldiag, get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any reliable pharmacy and take a tablespoonful .in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and fyour kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid f grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia and has been used for generations to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to activity, also to neutralize the acids in urine so it no longer causes irritation, thus ending bladder disorders. Jad Salts is inexpensive and can- not injure; makes a delightful effer- vescent lithia-water drink which all regular meat eaters should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and the blood pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney complications, Gov. ! | it must consult with the wisest man of | “He never thought of it so long as | | Like the captain $12.00 $10.00 - AND $8.50 FANCY SUITS FOR MEN AND YOUNG MEN, ON SALE AT This Gaus' The Climax It's the king opportunity of them all in suits— and it doesn’t require the eyes of an expert to appreciate 1t.

Murphy of Livingston was ‘“requested” to run for secretary of state on the original ticket, but he | sald he'd rather run for assembly in his own county, and the committee after the conference was finished put Mr. Toomy in his place. some talk in the state committee of asking Mr. Robinson to resign, but it amounted to little. Davenport Jogs the Flock. Three candidates, Davenport, Ham- lin and Colby, were led to the plat- fcrm after the designations were made. Mr. Davenport, who is professor of law at Hamilton college, Senator Root’s almu mater, and who ran for lieutenant governor two years ago, jegged the flock off its feet. He said that the republican conven- tion at Saratoga had aroused the “decent citizenship of the state like a fire bell in the night.” He confessed that he is a conservative radical, say- ing: *I opposed the wild western form of direct primaries, which more or less the kind we have now. “Governor Hughes was right when he said that along with direct con- trol you've got to have written into the law the principle of leadership. As to the initiative, referendum and recall I'm opposed to the far western wide open type. I believe in the Wis- consin kind, which never operates as an emergency check after the legis- lature had every opportunity to do its duty. “I'm also a conservative radical in regard to the recall. What we need in New York is a system that will call good men to office before we try to recall them.” Some of the progressives looked dubious and thought of Hinman, but most of them were satisfied.

AGE-OLD METHODS USED BY GERMANS Nature Places DMicuities in Way 0f Russian Advance. London, Aug. 28, 5:25 A. M.—The Petersburg correspondent of the Post in describing the operations in East | Prussia, tells of the difficulties which | nature has placed in the way of the Russian advance and says the Ger- mans had enormously multiplied these difficulties by a modern adaptation of age-old methods. Lakelots and marshes were sown with rifle pits, and wherever practicable redoubts of felled timber were placed. Every- where there were formidable wire entanglements, “We have no exact the correspondent continues, many army corps Germany had left to oppose the Russian advance. Per- haps there were seven and possibly only five. Whatever their number, three are retreating under cover of the fortress of Koenigsberg and one i~ in full flight on Osterode. All four flung away In retreat their arms and ammunition and even their food. Abandons Entrenched Position. “The Russian armies by forced marches have driven a wedge between the German forces. So demoralizing was the Rusian commander’s strategy that the German forces abandoned their entrenched position on the Angerapp without a fight. “The authorities of East Prussia have caught the panicky feeling from Germany’s armies. It is reported that the commandant of Marienberg has ordered the inhabitants to evacu- ate the country while at Elbing the sluices were opened with the object of flooding the country to prevent the Russian advance No More Trained Troops. “These are methods of despair and indicate pretty certainly that Ger- many has no more trained troops to oppose the Russians. “With the true eyes information,” “of how for strategy which mark the born commander of men, Grand Duke Nicholas has aban- doned to its fate everything every- where which did not lend itself to the attainment of a single aim of locat- Ing, attacking and crushing the enemy’s main force. “In accordance with this policy quite half of Poland was left bare o!
