Democrats Stand Between Ranks, Dawes Asserts Republican Vice Presidential Candidate Carries Cam paign Into New York. N'ew York, Oct. 25.—Charles G. j Dawes, speaking tonight in New York for the first time since the be ginning of the campaign, scored the Da Follette independent movement, • assailed the democrats and denounr ed "cowardly, trimming politicians" in his own party. The Da Follette candidacy bore the ’ brunt of the assault, Mr. Dawes de ; scribing it as "an attack leveled at the constitution which, if successful, means destruction of our form of I! government.” He also attacked its loaders, as serting “we are hearing much about the rule of the people from the men ' who are speaking really of the rule ! of the mob." The attention given by the repub jt llcan nominee to the democratic np v position was only in passing and 1! considered in a reference to what he termed that party's “attempt to stand between the battle lines with i. one radical and one conservative ij candidate." Respects Courage. "I respect those men who are ; fighting this form of government," he said with reference to the Da Fol lette group. "They have courage and I respect their courage. But we have not had anybody on my side for the last four years—at least not many— j that have been standing up and : fighting." Mr. Dawes spoke at a republican rally held under the auspices of the republican state committee at Cler mont rink, Brooklyn. He came into New York late today from Montclair after the meeting to remain until tomorrow night when he will board his special train for a day of cam paigning Monday in upstate New York, with speeches at Albany, Syra cuse, Utica and Rochester. Dack of political courage, Mr. Dawes asserted, had resulted in the polling of a small vote in past elec tions. “That is the reason why in Wis consin for four years you have only had about 33 to 40 per cent of the registered vote cast, and through large sections of our country the 1 same thing obtains," he added. "Why? • What inducement Is there for Ameri can citizens to come out and vote when on one side is a man in earnest, courageous, fighting for something that a citizen does not believe In; and on the other side is a cowardly, trimming politician, preaching that by legislation you can get high beef on , the hoof and low beef en the table, I high railroad wages and low railroad rates, and all that sort of lncon i slstent stuff and clap-trap: trying to please everybody: putting vote-getting above principle—a pretty poor choice. Fight Raging Now. "That is one reason why the pen pie have not been to the polls as they should have been. But now you have a fight." The issue in "this fight” Mr. Dawes , told his audience, was raised when ' the Da Follette group adopted a plat ’ form declaration for submission of "a constitutional amendment providing i that congress may by re-enacting a i statute make it effective over a Judl jj cial veto.” "In other words, at one blow," he added, “it is proposed to destroy the ■ balance of power which exists in this government between the executive. • legislative and judicial branches of government and make the executive . and judicial subordinate to congress. • "Now what does that mean? We hear a lot of talk in these days of political trimming and cowardice in j the effort to please all sides on all questions, about the rights of this 1il< o and that bloc, the rights of this • class and that class and this section and that section. This concerns your rights and my rights. The rights — that are protected by the constitution of the United States are something that belong to us. They don’t belong to governments and as long as that constitution stands as it is they can't be touched by a government or any other individual. Constitutional Rights. "What are those rights? It Is your right, and my right to go to church where we please and worship God in accordance with the dictates of our conscience; it is your right and my light to own property; it is your right and my right to free speech and to trial by jury—rights like that, which are protected by the constitu tion of the United States. Those are the rights which it is proposed to hand to congress with the dema gogues so often there in the saddle. "What kind of a government will this be if congress can pass a law telling you where to go to church, or taking property away from you and handing it over to someone else? "Then there is a lower part of this discussion. Take it from that stand point. What will become of your wages? What will become of the prices of products? What will be come of business? What will become of All of us if the foundation of con fidence Is shaken because of a belief that the rock on which this nation stands is to be pulled out from under us? "Thus, if we lose, our government goes. It is a call to the colors.” Piggly Wiggly Safe Is Stolen S280 Taken From Strong Box; Secontl Time in Two Month*. The safe in the Tiggly Wiggly store at Twenty-fourth and Fort streets was robbed last night of $280. It was the second robbery of this store in the last two months. On September 7 yeggs broke into the store and blew the safe. Following this and other robberiea of the concern's Omaha stores, the safes were placed in the front win dows, with electric lights over them. From Front Window. Last night’s robbers daringly Jimmied open the front door, carried the safe from the front window and out of the rear door, where they loaded It in a truck and drove off. Where the horseshoe drive winds from the Prettiest Mile boulevard toward Carter lake, they threw the safe out and "punched ’ It, knocking off the combination with a hammer and prying open the door. The ruined safe was found there. Information Refused. The robbery was discovered by a man delivering bread at the store at •1 Saturday morning. Three of the concern's store mana gers were arrested after the series of recent robberies. They were dis charged. The company headquarters refused to give out the name of the present store manager.

Mr. Dawes seemed to enjoy the op portunity to entertain his friend of nearly 40 years, first on the campaign train with all of its routine and oc casionnt thrill, and then at. the Dawes home in Evanston, where the twain reminisced over the days when they were young lawyers, looking out Into the future. One of the enjoyable incidents of the recent campaign trip occurred in the Ozarks, on an island in the Gas connade river, near the small station of Jerome.
