Mr. Haya Annoyed.

Chairman Hays, who maV be regardfd now as the head of the republican ^ganizatiOn in the nation, Is making «me speeches that are liable to cause jti considerable annoyaflce in the fuure. At the state convention in Mich?an this week he displayed agony of :!nd over what he termed an effort on he part of the democrats to make it ippear that a republican victory this «tr would be received with a gTeat l«al of pleasure bv the kaiser and bis tssociates, He said that he protested gainst such talk both as a republican ud as au American citizen. It is not iffieult to visualize what Mr. Hays ould be doing if th* republican.- had lecteu a president in 1916. He is a

Ifted young man. and he undoubtedly i*-onld be issuing statement* every fe^ nixiutes calling upon the people to *fcand by the president, and asserting iiat the election of a republican conre,is -Wus absolutely necessary in uplolding the hands of the president.

Sometimes it almost, appears as if Ur. Ilays and his associates at the ipad of the republican organization ind entirely lost, their sense of humor.

like to refer to Governor Goodich as the "great war governor," and o insist that the people shall back him ip in whatever he does. It Is well nough, according to their way of Kinking to demand that everything hall be done to make things easy and omfortable for the governor, but when hey get into a larger field they seem o take a different view.

History Recalled.

Mf, Hays is a close sfudeiit of poli^ ics. He has read the history of the •ampaign of 1S98 and he must It now hat in that year his own party estabIshed a. precedent for exactly the kind •»f« oampaign the democrats, ere now naking. Colonel Roosevelt, the late President Harrison and Senator Albert 1. Beveridge, who were leaders of the republican party then, declared in more than one speech that If a repubioan conerress was not elected to uphold President McKinley that Spain Iwould have ample muse to believe that Ithe people of this country were not standing by President McKinley In the ^prosecution of the war. t"he republican editors in that year fiever missed an edition without appealing for the election of a republican bongress on the grounds above stated. j\lr.

Ha^'p knows all about this situa-tion,-yf4t at every opportunity he niainI ains tfQiat it is not fair for the demorats fo demand the election of a demcratili congress in support of the r* i»ient. and he has shown that he terribly horrified at the mere sug»3*ion that the election of a repubcongress would give Berlin a eki deal of comfort. gl This is not an important matter «x-

St that !t shows that the republican r^thren are not always inclined to be ^ai It recalls the ancient variety of republican statesmen who in former 5'Mirs were tvont to maintain that the 1 .ord was on the republican side and that the republicans could do nowrotic.

The, present leaders of the G. O. P. »^iave 'not advanced much beyond the %riewW' held by the predecessors, and iroliabb" it is not fair to criticise the

Mr, Hays for running -so true to

r.1! is not Timely, however, that bis afony of mind ip shared by the average V»publican Or democrat who is not ply. concernrd over political' mat-

Tt is al*o likely that some memers of both parties are overdoing the 1' ''k about their patriotism and about 'he accomplishments of their party In •«he war. The democratic politicians Mm is going around rlnimin? that all the patriotism is monopolized by his jtwty is not doing himself or his party i'ny gotid. The same thing applies to e republican politicians.

In this same connection word comes "from the east that the policy of the publicans to boycott any mention of the name of President Wilson has been found to be a political blunder. The jn.chievements of the president have

Arisen above partisan interest and jUvhen tlio p^Me discover the way the I vind was blowing they made known /heir opinion of this sort of political jeamouflage.

It would be just as well at the openng of the campaign for the over-j.-ealp'«s leaders on both sides to come |-o tVfs conclusion that the people ire 'running this war and that the con#ross 'will have to be responsive to whatever ^htv demand. The failure of thousands jeap*e to register is due almost entrely to this -belief and it is one of the -usnns whv there will not be large

J1*whej«Intbeyfh*

Vn» November. There are demo-

'tutic and republican leaders in Inr«*m Who have made serious mistakes .•ireafly !i1 speeches that they have 1elt*®red and they have only themfo blame for the position in M-^lch now find themselves. 1 Taken By Consent.

Srnoe both parties declared in their gKtate platforms that the immediate '*-t*.n*n? of t^e war is paramount to .^/srrthina. ®lsf" they must be accepted what, they have said. Mr. Hays has said that "All else is chores" in comparison to the importance of all of the war activities. In that matter the people generally will concur with him, hut it will probably be just as well for Mr. Hays in the midst of his brilliant career if he will pause to think ^ibat he will not gain anything by

Trtticfsing his opponent for doing exractly what the republicans have done wid what they would be doing now if •.hey had the chance. The people have v not forgotten the vicious speech Senator Harry New delivered at the reoublioan state convention last May when he criticised the president vlg-

fi

urj)usly and said not a word in glorification of the deeds of our armies Wd of the wonderful things we were I then in preparing for the present I successful drive against Germany. If

Senator New discovers in the future that the people have scanned bis speeches very closely for any com-

The list contained names of Indiana and Illinois men as follows: INDIANA. PRIVATE ORVILLE LOWE, Boonville,

pHmentary references to the deeds of •the soldiers and to the miraculous preparation that has been made in the past two years and have not found them, he will have hinjself to blame.

None of these matters are of sufficient importance to turn the campaign o»e way or the other, bat they all have their bearing since everything in connection with the war seems to be of vital interest to the people. It may be taken for granted that Mr. Hays and his shrewd lieutenants have discovered that it doesn't pay to attempt to make an issue of the war or to criticise the president, and that having made this discovery they have decided that the best thing for them to do is to demand that there shall be no polltics whatever in the war.

Congressional Fights.

It Is understood that most of the members of congress will return to their districts during the coming week. Some of them will And plenty of work to do. The big fights are in the First, Second, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, Eleventh, Twelfth and Thirteenth districts. The republicans are not so confident about the First district as they were a month ago. They have discovered that there is a reaction in Vanderburg county against the Ossenburg ticket. It happens that Mr. Ossenburg, who Is the boss in the district of Evansville for many years, put upon his ticket men who have not been loyal'to the republican party since 1312. .Many republicans at Evansville have concluded that their leaders paid too high a price to get Mr. Ossenburg back into the party.

The outlook now is that the democrats will carry the First and Second districts by a comfortable plurality. The republican leaders have sent out I the S. O. S. call from the Fifth districot. They will do whatever they can Lto save 'Representative Sanders. They [admit that the outcome is verv doubtful/"

There is a strong sentiment In the Fifth that the people retired a mighty good representative when they defeated Ralph Moss two years ago, and as Moss is a candidate this time, the straws indicate that they are going to remedy their mistake.

The Sixth district is ordinarily republican! but the democrats seem to think they have a. good chance. The outcome here will depend largely on the registration this next week. There is a very close fight in the Eleventh and the republicans have come to the conclusion that they will be lucky if they carry the Twelfth. The Thirteenth is very doubtful and it is not likely that either side will win bv rnany votes. The congressional campaign will open up after the Liberty Loan drive.
