Governor Wood row Wilson of New
Jersey, democracy's choice for president
of the United States, talked for an hour
yesterday afternoon to an audience that
nearly filled the Auditorium. He was
introduced by Senator Gilbert M. Hitch-
cock, who said that democratic defeats
for sixteen years had really been vic
tories and had tended to weave the party
Into "that magnificent harmony that now
brings New Jersey to Nebraska." W. H
Thompson of Grand Island Introduced the
senator and A. C. Shallenberger, candidate
for United States senator, pronounced the
benediction in a quick and luminous

Crashing prelude.
The New Jersey governor stepped to
the edge of the stage and began his
ipeech in a conversational tone. Cries of

CALEB BRAGG FINISHES IN LEAD
Wealthy Teean- Cincinnati Driver
Wins International Heavy Car
Co test A fer Sensational
Last Las Brosa.
MILWAUKEE!, Oct 8.-Caleb Bragg, a
wealthy young Cincinnati driver, today
won the fourth International Grand Prix
automobile road race with a Flat cat
after a sensational last lap brush, . in
which Ralp DePalma's Mercedes car was
overturned and DePalma and his mechani
cian, Tom Alley, were seriously Injured.
Bragg captured the race from a field
of twelve starters, which Included the
country's most widely known drivers, of
heavy cars. Only six of the twelve
Starters finished.
Bragg's speed average for the race was
67.3 miles an hour, as against the late
David Bruce-Brown's average of 74.43
miles an hour In last year's Grand Prix
even at Savannah, Ga. He covered the
distance of 409 miles, 4,616 feet In five
hours, fifty-nine minutes and twenty-five
seconds.
With the elimination of Tetslaff by a
minor accident to his Fiat car at the 244
mile post, the race settled to a driving
auei Between Bragg and DePalma. The
latter led Bragg for only four laps. How
ever, when DePalma Jumped into second
place with Tetzlafrs withdrawal, he was
eight minutes back of Bragg. He trailed
at about that distance for more than
eighty miles. Then In the last fifty miles
DePalma started at a ; terrific sprint
which resulted In his car being over-1
turned In the last five-mile stretch of the
race.
The winner . drove a heady, consistent
race, never being further back than third
plaoe at any stage of the long grind.
He was In the lead through thirty laps
of the fifty-two-lap contest. For the
first eighty miles Teddy Tetslaff led the
field, but Bragg and De Pal ma were
almost on top of Tetzlaff all the time.
' After a hurried examination at one of
the hospital tents on the course, sur
geons said DePalma and Alley had suf
fered broken legs and severe bruises,
but that neither seemed to be in a fatal
condition. The injured men then were
taken to Trinity hospital
At Trinity hospital, where De Palma
and Alley were rushed for medical aid,
it was said that De Palma. In addition
to suffering from broken limbs, suffered
a. puncture of the abdomen and Is In a
serious condition. ' Alley Is said, to have
suffered a broken shoulder.' ,
Bragg, as his part, of the hO.OOO pursel '
received $5,000.' Erwjn Bergdoli of Phila
delphia, who drove a Bens car into sec
ond place after a pretty fight wjth, Gli
Anderson for the last sixty miles of the
race, received Bergdoll'a average
speed for the race was 86.61 miles per
hour. ' Gil' Anderson, "who -finished, third
with a Stutx car, :. the . only American-1
made car to remain through the race, got
$1,250 as his' end. His average speed was

Pars Respects to Hoosers,
i Mr, Wilson paid his respects to the
third, party movement. By its platform
It professes to desire government by the
people, when the fact Is, It would legalize
monopoly, accepting the conditions . as
they really exist now.
The governor said he was running for
president and had no desire to become
chairman of a board of trustees, while
the candidates of the other parties were
willing and ready to assume that office.
Vie attacked monopoly as viciously as
Ma dignity would permit and said he
would like to describe the third party
In some shorthand manner, but didn't
know any system that would be polite
to use. Associating the "progressive
movement" Intimately with "monopoly"
the New Jersey governor said any at
tempt to perpetuate and legalize monop'
olles would be a failure, .because there Is
"no process by which monopoly can be
naturalized In this country"
Third Party Hopeless. ,
Although attacking the republicans and
the third party adherents the governor
said he sympathised with the progressive
program and subscribed to It, but that it
would be hopeless to, carry .out this pro
gram in the manner proposed . by Mr.
Roosevelt,. ... - !i - " ' '
In closing his argument, Mr. Wilson
said the plan is to build a new govern
mental structure, reinforced with the
an s place at the wheel of a Bens car
in the last fifty miles of the race, was
flagged with three laps still to go.
