GOVERNOR CANDIDATES TO SPEAK State Convention in Session

In Hammond Closes Today. Ihe Indiana, state convention of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union which, closes its session in Hammond today believes the league of nations it necessary for the progress 0f civilization; It believes in no compromise with John Barleycorn, not even to the extent of light wines and beer. The league of nations sentiment was voiced by the Hon. Oliver Stewart of Indianapolis, while the Rev. K. P. Oreenwalt of Elwood reaffirmed the position of the W. C. T. U. regarding the use cf alcohol in aU forms,, the addresaes having been given at the Sunday afternoon and evening sessions at the First Baptist church respectively The afternoon sss!rn of the WoOLIYEK AV. STEWART men's Christian Temperance Union which u very largely attended, was opened by an organ prelude. The invocation was followed by a splendid ri.uLlcal number rendered by the choir of the First Presbyterian church. The speaker of the afternoon, the Hon. Oliver W. Stewart, spoke on the World Crisis. Ho first referred to the military crisis, the spirit of autocracy. Germany thought she could accomplish anything the started to do, but ahe came m contact with the spirit of democracy. Mr. Stewart stated he was not sure that If the war had continued two or ttres years longer, but that civilization might have gone over tho preci pice cf Irretrievable destruction. The logician says war is the result of human nature, therefore, we must have wars as we can't change human nature. That was the same conclusion the world came to when she tried to break up dueling'. Why what is the use of trying? Dueling is the result of human nature, they said. We may not be able to chax,j3 human nature, but we can change its manner of expression. Mr. Stewart further stated, that if a man stepped on his toes he felt as bitter and vindictive as any ancestor he ever bad, and that If he wtnt and killed every man that stepped on hid toes fce would be ostracised from society. "Now if we have changed our manner of expressing our emotions, we should substitute orderly procedure for war and blood-shed," he said. Continuing, the speaker staled that a short time ago a body of men gatiieitd around a council table to see if tiey could not prevent war and slaughter. But we had not yet thought fit to be represented at that table. It wa-j no easy matter for tho United States senate to agree to this. "Ninety per cent of the people at the United Sirates are hoping and praying that by reservations and changes America i.-Jght take her place with the nations of the world and live up to what the world Is expecting of her." ""We have given up our old Ideals cf work, thrift, labor and industry and the new ideals which we have taken up are not as good as the ones laid down," he said. He referred to the oid time speakers' who in giving add esses exalted work, and taught us to honor the laborer. They are doing things worth while. Now if we have to work we want to do it when the neighbors won't see us, as a man that v.orks must be abnormal soweway. Tho world has forgotaen that verso of ."criplure, "Earn thy bread by thy sweat of thy brow." "In ppeaking of modern progress," he said, "we require fo many things our ancestors never heard of. Several hundred years ago our ancestors made their coon-skin cap. .their own shoes and clothes. Nearly everything we have is made by machinery. What has become of the old German shoemaker who used to go through town with his puah cart making and repairing shoes? He is gone. Iton't strain your eyes looking for him. He will never be seen asnin. Tour great grandfather could take a pen knife end a goose quill and make him a pen. Hut how many men does it take now to make your fountain pen? That shows the great changes that have t.-ken place in the industrial :fe. Hither we will cut down our wants and desires or l.-e unitedly, connectedly and with perfect adjustment we will bend our backs and help produce America has to solve this problem herself and in solving it I'Or herself she will solve it for the wo: Id."

Hanley in the prohibition cause, how he worked untiringly and unceasingly to bring about the ISth amendment. In. closing Mr. Stewart told of how being relieved of his services in Fiance as a speaker, he first visited Roumanla, France. Climbing a hil! near a little church in ruins his heart almost stopped as he gazed upon the .1.000 white crosses that marked the graves of .America's brave heroes. Floating over these graves waved Old Glory. In the words of the sueaker, "I thought what can I do for these boys? "I can't! Cu anything but I can go home and say to them, "You are called upon to take the torch from these hands. You can go and make the world safe for democracy and if you should fail. 1 can eay that you are unworthy of those that died for you.' " Mrs. Mons. a national W. C. T. U. officer, in a few words told the audience that previous to this time wo men could listen to such aldres;-e.-and go home feeling their hands were tied, but now we can return and feel they can go ahead and help carry out these high ideals. Following the address of the Hon. Stewart, the audiencn was favored v. ith a very pleasing vocal soio by Mr. John McNeal. Sl'XUAY EVLXIMS, The evening service of the W. C. T. U. convention was opened by a. very beautiful anthem given by the UaplUl choir. A short adress and announcements were given by the Kcv. L.icklidtr. Mrs. Vayhinger with her usual graei ous manner, introduced the speaker -f j the evening, the Kcv. Oreenwalt, who in adrcssing the convention sau. said : "Some people think that the w r!d has: gone to the bow-wows and we are not, getting anywhere, but 1. myself, feci; differently. I think we are progress- . j ing. AVhen I look back in the history of the world and what has rea.ly 1 transpired in the last 100 years, I fcel j that we have made more progress. n( the last 200 years than the world, has j made in the 2.000 years be lore. Mr. Oreenwalt told how he workjd and labored in the cause of prohibition, how he still fought when it was almost impossible to leave his home and when he was told by the mayor he had better leave town for fear of violence and when every time he went home he was agraid of being slugged in the dark, but confessed that he did not have the nerve to go into Europe onfl flsrht for the overthrow of then,,r traffic there. "Here I have thc" women back of me." he said. "In European countries you meet women whoprcfcr ,0 gue wine to their babies rather than water."

Transcript Reveals Spirit of Wilson's Utterances At . Secret Plenary Session.

BUXETX2T ST. lOtTlS, Oct. 11 "Taera la no tU ferenoe between the report now ma.A public by the president and the official sttraographio report from which X quot ed," declared Senator Seidell P. Speacer, republican, la a statement issued here today after boln? shown tne stenographic report glreu out at the White house of the elffhtn plenary session of the peace conference, where the president Is alleged by Senator Speacer to have promised military and naval aid to Souxnaoia and Serbia. BT J. BART CAMPBELL. STAFF CORRESPONDENT I. N. SERVICE WASHINGTON, Oct. 11 As refuta tion of the charge by Senator Spencer. republican, Missouri, that Fresidtnt Wil son promised Koumanla and Serbia, American military aid in men and ships during his participation in the peace conference, a transcript of a stenogra phic report of the president's utterances at a secret plenary session of the con ference on May 31, 1913, was mado pub lic today at the 'White house, The president was quoted In the sten ographic rerort, made public today by the White House, as having stated at this session: "How can a power like the United States, for example for I can speak for no other after signing this treaty. if It contains elements which they do not believe will be permanent, go three thousand miles away across the 3-a ao report to its people that it has n -i . settlement of a peace of the world ; cannot do so. And yet there un ; all. of these transactions, the ex,i -c. . tion on the part, for example, of o mania, and of Czecho-Slovakia. ne e Serbia, that if any covenants settlement are not observed th. ' will send her armies and her nuh see that they are observed. "The president was also , quot ed ihaving stated: " We must net ciose eyes to the fact that In the. last anai. is the military and naval strength the great powers will be the nunl guar antee of the peace of the world. " Other language attributed to the president was as follows:: "We are trying to make a pra- - . : settlement, that is to say. to elim 1 .u those elements of disturbr.nce, : , ' as possible, which may interf- re the race 0f the world, and we are tisg to make an equitable distribution territories according to the race. th ethnographical character of tiie i ci i .. inhabiting those tcrritor.es. "And back of that lies this funucmcnialjy important fact that w hen th decisions are made, the ailied and s sot ia led towers guarantee to maintao, them. It is perfectly evident, up- 1. a moment's reflection that the chb :. burden cf their maintenance will, fall upon the greater powers. The chief burden cf the war fell upon the greater rowers, and if it had not been for their action, their military action, wi would not be here to settle these Questions. The stenographic report Quoted wacontained in a letter addressed by its author F. A. Carlson, 1101 Ashland bik., Chicago, to Charles M. Swcm. now ste i ographer to the president, which fs attached to a preliminary statement .issued by Joseph P. Tumulty, the president's secretary. In his statement Mr. Tumulty said: "With reference to the telegram of Senator Spencer to the president daied Oct. 6, 1320, in which it is alleged that at the eighth plenary session of the .peace conference, the president said to IYemier Bratiano of Koumanla, 'you must not forget that it is force which hs the final guarantee of peace. If tho world is again troubled the V. 5 'W"-J1 send to this side of the ocean its army and its fleet," the "White House was in receipt of (Jarlson's letter and this letter speaks for itself." Beyond pointing out that Carlson was the "official short hand reporter who rcport'-d the proceedings of the eighth plenary session and wrote up the statements President Wilson made," Mr. Tumulty offers no further comment, nor was any statement from lha prerijnt himself forthcoming. It was understood tho president read the Carlson letter before it .was (Iyer. Supplementary to tho Carlson letter. ihe White House also gave out "f.T comparison." it was stated, 'a dadl.y parallel" between Carlson's report the president's utterances and the "vcislon of them read into tho congressional record of December 4, 19 t). by Sen. ato'r Hiram Johnson.r-e publican, of .
