ALLTDSHAHEIN PARTY -EQUALLY Roosevelt Tells Followers New Movement Is To Be One Lit erally of the People. NEW YORK. July 28.—Theodore Roosevelt served notice upon hie fol lowers today that they are assuming a grave, responsibility in forming a new party and that careful organization will be necessary to wrest victory from their opponents. He met 100 loyal sup porters. Including the county chairmen of New York state, at the party head quarters today and made a short ad dress. “f can see that the Hull Moose is a pretty big animal,” said the colonel In opening his speech. ”1 am not going to make a speech 1 came over here to greet you because you are the men behind the gun. No man knows better than I do that en thusiasm and high principles can not be made effective without organization and work. "You are undertaking the organiza tion of a new party—a party which is to stand for a square deal democracy • which is to be literally the par ty of the people; a party which is based on live Issues and not on dead issues, a party protesting against cor rupt and insincere quality of both the old machines; a party into which ex- Democrats and ex-Republicans, men without regard to what their political past may have been, are to come in on an exact equality and to have each the same share tn ‘he party management. People to Share Party Powers. “When we got this started this is W be a party which will not only repre sent the people, but a party which the people will have a share of the management. “We are going to see to it when this new party is organized that it will not be possible for any 53 men chosen four years before by politicians to announce that they stand superior to all the voters in a great state like California and if that state has not chosen to shape Its lines according to the will of the 53 individuals the state shall be disfranchised. “Now, my own judgment is that Messrs Harms. Penrose. Huggenhelm and company made a mistake when they took two stolen delegates from California in place of the electoral vote of California. Ami they were not con tent with that; they swiped the elec torate of Massachusetts for two more stolen delegates. I think it was about ■s expensive a piece of sham practice as I ever saw Indulged in and no good will come if we merely substitute one set of bosses for another. There is nothing that the bosses of both parties wish so much as to see every decent man vote alternately for each party with the vague idea that he is rebuking the other. “No doubt Mr. Barnes and Mr. Mur phy would like to have everything all the time, but they are perfectly willing each to take half instead of the whole Rut we don't care anything about di viding the state equally between them instead of giving it to one "Will Take Both From Them." “Now what we intend to do is to take it from both and we intend to take the nation from both. “In this party we Intend to build a government without and within the party, on the lines of genuine poimHr rule am! i social and Industrial .lust: ■■ for farmer, wag. wo'ker. businiman and professional man alike, to be achieved not through the boss, n. t through the indirect control of the tc - ty organization by special pi lvil. go. hut to be leached through g> neral at 1 not rne elx nominal rub of tin pro] > themselves '' One woman.
