Another One for Wilson Former Senator H. C. Hansbrough, of North Dakota, who served eighteen years in the United States Senate as a republican announced Tuesday that he intends to support President Wilson for re-election. He reached this decision after hearing one of Charles E. Hughes’ speeches. ' “I am going to support the president as a Wilson republican,’ the exsenator told National ' Chairman Vance C. McCormick. . Former Senator Hansbrougn, who was three times elected to the United States senate by the republicans of North Dakota, said he was enroute to his home at Devils Lake and intended to enter the campaign actively in behalf of the democratic national ticket. | “One of the reasons that I cannot vote for Mr. Hughes is that I cannot conscientiously take orders from Theodore Roosevelt and George W. Perkins.”” continued the ex-senator. ‘1 know them of old.” ‘*After hearing the Grand Forks address of Mr. Hughes and noting the fact that this tour of the northwest was stimulated by the activity of the president of the Great Northern railway, 1 have been wondering how so many members of the non-partisan league, when they vote in November, will take account of the real issue in this campaign. - : “I am for Wilson, a Wilson-repub-lican because [ believe in the principles of Abraham Lincoln, rather than a man who represents the special interests and privileged classes as distidguished from the true democracy of the country.” L

¥ Burglars are Caught - ‘ Two of the three young burglars who entered the coal office of L. A. Palmer and the Lincoln Highway Garage last Friday night, rifling the safe at the coal office and robbing the garage cash register of $9 were captured in South Bend on the discrip tion sent out by Marshal Flowers and have confessed. They will be brought back to Ligonier for trial. One of the lads escaped. The boys came from the east on a motorcycle and side car and aroused the suspicion of the Ligonier officers by their peculiar action. One wore a red sweater and it was by the loss of a peculiar button at the Palmer coal office that Officer Flowers established his identity as the burglar. An entrance was gained. to the Lincoln Highway garage by prying up a rear window. The burglary of the garage was not made public at the time, it being the suspicion that the work was done by local talent. The capture of the burglars is regarded as a good piece of work on the part of Marshal Flowers. ' - Opening of Schools The Ligonier public schools will open Monnay, Sept. 18. Tuition for those entéring the Ligonier High School from a community which does not maintain a high schoo! will be an amount equal to the .per capita expenditure ih the Ligonier High School. For those entering from a community which maintains a high school the tution will be an amount equal to the per capita expenditure for that high school. _ . An employment bureau is maintained in connection with the Ligonier High ‘School, whereby students who desire it may find employment to defray part of the expense of getting a high school education.

When a woman realizes that her husband’s future, his independence, his- very existence can be assured by the sacriffcing of herself, to a much despised leech of society, she is surely confronted by a most crucial test. The story is of Russian life and is elaborately staged. Miss Gordon wears the richest and most gorgeous gowns of any actress on the English or American stage and her gowns in her photo plays are always the very last word in styles. They alone are worth the price of admission. Special Matinee at 3:00. Adm. 10 and 15 cts.

Results of the state election in Maine are not particularly encouraging to democrats .althought conservative thinkers figured that the republicans would win. Maine is a rockribbed republican state, but it is believed that President Wilson will carry it in November.

Down Embankment

Grover Weaver, of Wawaka, had an exciting experience on the Blazed Trail near the cow hole Monday night when in attempting to pass'a carriage the road gave way and his machine plunged through the fence and down to the river bottom. Passengers from Rome City were in the,car at the time and they had a bad scare. The machine was but slightly damaged and thie occupants escaped injury. Drayman McDaniel employed his force in getting'the car back on the highway.

PARTY SUFFRAGE RECORDS Only Democratic Congressmen Appealed for Action. Congressman O, C. Dill, of Washington, cites the records of the committee hearings om suffrage in Congress to prove that “the only Congressmen who have gone before the Judiclary Committee of Congress this year to ask that a suffrage amendment be voted upon have been Democratic members.” He adds that “no others have appeared t 6 ask for consideratlon of the measure. That is, I think, sufficlent answer to any claim that the Democratic Party opposed Woman Suffrage.” : This record need only be supplemented with the‘personal voting his'tory of the rival Presidential candidates to show who is the real friend ‘%.01' suffrage. Presldent Wilson made two trips from Washington to New Jersey to register and vote for Woman Suffrage when it was submitted in his State. Candidate Hughes did not take the trouble to register or to vote the ‘lgsame year—l9ls—when the suffrage - amendment was submitted In his | ,state.

“There is no means of judging the future except by assessing the past. Constructive action must be weighed against destructive comment and reac- . tlon.” — From President Wilson’s - Bpeech of Acceptance.

THE ACGEPTANCE SPEECH—AN EDITORIAL APPRAISAL

President Wilson’s speech of acceptance. was comprehensive, frank and direct. : It was the utteranc. of a man and a political party co. -ious of the honesty of past endeavors and confident of ability to cope with whatever problems the future might have in store. - ' No President has ever been called 'upon to face more serious conditions than has-Mr. Wilsén. He has met them with patience and devotion that have won the respect and admiration of the world. A

With domestic legislation to die rect, giving the relief from economic abuses that the country’s welfare demanded, with a-long list of promises to fulfill, the great war that burst upon the world threatened to check him in his efforts and to involve the nation in the disasters that are afflicting almost every nation of the old world.

How he has brought the country through it all, with honor and with astounding prosperity, the accepte ance speech succinetly and modestly tells. : $

In three and a half years the country has been set aright, every class protected in its liberties and its opportunities, the whole commercial system set in order, with prosperity abounding. And reason has never abandoned its throne in all of the country’s perplexities. » The speech was a message to the people of all the world; it was a notice to the world that this country is big enough to maintain its. honor and to keep out of war, and at the same time big enough to regulate its domestic conditions.

The speech was né apology, no defense, no complaint. It was a speech that all men and women should read to learn what the ‘country has really been doing. = Epworth League Programme for Sept. ; 17, 1916 The programme is as follows: Epworth League at 6:30.

SO Mewe . . Hudson Super-Sixes o Detroit, Mich,, July 1, 1916 We have today to announce:- | , - That more than ten thousand Hudson Super-Sixes have now been delivered to owners. - e ; That we have in four months, by tremendous exertion, quadrupled our daily output. ' o ' v That we have parts and materials, on hand and in process, for 20,000 more of the present Super-Six. =~ Constantly increasing demand has just forced us to place contracts on materials for an additional 15,000. 4 e - Thus it is settled that at least 35,000 more of the Hudson Super-Six will be built like the present model. Our production is now 3,500 monthly. i ,

No Change in Sight

Our opinion is that a like announcement will be made in a year from now. The Super-Six invention in one bound increased motor efficiency by 80 per cent.. From a small, light six, which delivered 42 horsepower, it created at 76-horse-power-motor. And simply by ending vibration. Stock Super-Sixes, in a hundred tests, have outrivaled all other stock car performance. In speed, in hill climbing, in quick acceleratiom and endurance, they have done what was never done before. No man can doubt that the Super-Six holds the pinnacle place among motors. And there is no higher place in sight. :

After eight months of experience, with 10,000 cars, not one important improvement in design suggests itself to our engineering corps. : -So the Super-Six will remain as it Is. And, because of our patents, it will maintain its supremacy. : 4o '
