WATSON RALLY
Continued from psge One were each required to respond to several encores. Miss Roberts sang a jarody to the song, "Don't Bite the Hand That-Feeds You," then Miss Mullen sang "Are You for Hughes?" to the tune of "Are You From Dixie?" County Chairman L. S. Bowman opened the meeting and Introduced District Chairman Walter Bossert, who spoke briefly. Mr. Bossert said the Coliseum crowd plainly told him that the Sixth district was once more back in the Republican ranks and he exKessed regret that the Coliseum was not large enough to accommodate all
who wanted to attend the meeting. He also expressed regret that Will II. Hayes, state chairman, was not able to attend. He lauded Hayes, declaring that through his efforts Indiana would return a 40,000 Republican majority next month. Bowman Reads Telegram. He then had Mr. Bowman read a telegram received from Mr. Hayes. In tills telegram Hayes stated that he l.ad been prevented attending the iceeting by the press of organization work and declared that he was really not needed as the crowd was to hear an address delivered by the "greatest crator in America." Judge D. W. Comstock, Republican candidate for congress, sat on the stage but made no address. He was the recipient of a glowing tribute from Mr. Watson which evoked great applause from the audience. In opening his address Mr. Watson expressed deep appreciation of the welcome extended to him by Wayne county people Perhaps, as he faced the great, cheering audience, he recalled days when Wayne's bitter hostility toward him was a political byword throughout the state. Mr. Watson also expressed gratitude that so many of his audience were residents of his former home, Winchester, and of Rush-
vllle, where he now resides.
hia vocal chords soon became "warmed up" and he was again the brilliant orator. He spoke for over two hours and discussed every phase of the campaign now raging over the nation. Opena Tariff Issue. He confined his remarks for the most part to a discussion of the tariff
nuestion and the Adamson "eight-hour" 4
law, the latter topic being of great interest to a large group of railroad employes. Opening his discussion of the Adamson law Watson read a letter sent out Oct. 12 by officers of the Brotherhood of Railroad Engineers and Firemen, In answer to numerous inquiries, in which It was stated that they could give no definite Information concerning the Adamson law as they were not yet able to convince themselves that they had interpreted its meaning. He showed that this law merely es
tablished a working day for the purpose of computing wages, and that it
affected only twenty percent of the railroad employes those actually engaged in interstate, business. He pointed out that nine-tenths of the passenger trainmen would suffer wage losses from this bill and that it could bene
fit only about fifty percent of the freight service trainmen. Under this law he showed, a man, to received his day's pay must actually work eight hours. . Law Not Satisfactory. 'This law Is not satisfactory to the brotherhood men, to the railway managers nor to congress, and the Lord only knows what President Wilson thinks of it," Watson said. "It abrogates the power of the unions and shoves them back a quarter of a century before the unions began their successful policy of collective bargaining with the railway managers a policy that made the trainmen the highest paid class of workmen in the world. President Wilson now proposes, to prevent further comDlications which
brought about this unfortunate Adamson law, a program of compulsory arbitration a plan absolutely repugnant to all trades unions. Mr. Wilson has sold you railroad men a gold brick." "I have no abuse for any Democrat; its bad enough to be a Democrat without being abused for it," Watson remarked in opening his discussion of the tariff . law. The crowd laughed heartily. He said the present campaign was the greatest waged in this country since 1896 when William McKinley was elected president. "History is repeating itself this year, as it has a
habit of doing," he said. "The paramount questions are involved in this campaign, one a problem of war, the other a problem of peace. "In 1860 when Lincoln was elected president he was confronted with a problem of war and a problem of j
peace. His war proDiem was wnen the union was rent asunder on the rocks of the slavery question. That problem he settled with stern force and magnanimous justice. His peace problem was represented in the Walker free trade tariff of 1846, then operative. He substituted for this law the first Republican protective tariff law, and his peace problem had been satisfactorily solved. Faces War Problem. "In 1896, when Mr. McKinley was elected president he was confronted with a problem of war and a problem of peace. His war problem was solved by forcing Spain to withdraw its contaminating touch from the western hemisphere. His peace problem was represented in the Wilson free-trade tariff law. This he solved by the substitution of a Republican protective tariff.
"The next president will be Charles Evans Hughes and he will be confronted by a problem of war and a problem of peace. His war problem will be
Mexico, providing Mr. Wilson con
sent a graver question I cannot tell because I cannot lift the veil of the future; I only know that in Mr. Hughes this nation would have an executive in whose hands the honor and safety of the nation can be safely intrustei His peace problem will be the wiping from the statute books the present 'free-trade' tariff and the substitution of a Republican protective tariff.
Feels Sure of Success. "I know that Mr. Hughes will be elected because it Is absolutely necessary for a Republican administration to follow a Democratic administration as necessary as for ambulances to follow an army when it goes forth to battle. Lincoln followed a Democratic admin
istration; McKinley followed a Democratic administration, and so will Mr. Hughes. ' Watson told of the prosperity enjoyed in America, following the enactment of the Walker free trade tariff, a prosperity enjoyed until the close of the Crimean war, which involved England, France. Russia and Turkey. This was closed in 1857 and our prosperity terminated, Watson said. ; He read President Buchanan's message to congress pointing out the deplorable industrial conditions which had resulted by the shutting off of war munition exportations and the flooding of the United States, through our free trade entrances, of cheap labor products from Europe. Recalls Pauper Labor. He told of the flooding of pauper European products into this republic In 1,815 at the close of the Napoleonic wars, when the United States had a free trade tariff. Concerning the conditions which existed here at that time Watson quoted from President Wilson's book, "A History of the American People." Mr. Wilson wrote in this history that the conditions existing in the United States in 1815 as a result!
of free trade tariff were a "manifest; injustice to American industries" and!
that the proper remedy was "found in a protective tariff." He then pointed out that President Wilson had written into his book a graphic recital of conditions existing
in this country during the second j Cleveland administration, when a free!
trade tariff was operative. Mr. Wilson, the historian, wrote that farmers wore sacking on their feet instead of shoes, that armies of idle men formed to "march on Washington and demand relief," that the cities teemed with the
unemployed. Historian Wilson con
eluded his chapter that it was "not un
til 1897, when the Republican party returned to power with a protective tariff that the crisis was passed." President Changes Stand. "Now President Wilson says a protective tariff Is null and void; unconstitutional. I appeal from Wilson the politician to Wilson the historian, and I believe the historian," Watson shouted while the Coliseum rocked with applause. "Mr. Wilson is such an excellent his
torian that I am anxious for him to return to his old Job," Watson added. Watson read statistics to prove that the great bulk of our exports the past two years have been war munitions and he called attention to the paralyzed industrial conditions existing In this country the fourteen months between the advent of the Wilson administration and the outbreak of the European war. This condition was caused by the present tariff law. "In 1812 we were on the crest of unprecedented prosperity. One year later, following the enactment of the free trade tariff, we were in a quagmire of black despair. That one change wrought more havoc in this country, so far as money cost is concerned, than the Civil war. The balance of trade the month Wilson assumed office was $164,000,000 in our favor. In April, 1914, before the outbreak of the Europ
ean war, before such a war was even dreamed of, in fact, the balance of trade was $11,000,000 against us. What is the reason a Democratic free trade tariff, but Mr. Wilson tells congress that the war is to blame. It is as much responsible for this condition as crawfish in the Whitewater river are
responsible for the velocity of the cur
rent.
"If there is not a protective tariff operative at the close of the European war, then prepare for a deluge of pauper made European products." In conclusion Mr. Watson discussed the Mexican question in detail.

Killing the Calves All sorts of excuses are offered for the high price of beef, the most plausible being. the alleged demand for veal "the killing of calves which should be allowed to grow into regular beef." You cannot have beef if you eat it as "veal", but you can have Shredded Wheat Biscuit which contains more real nutriment than beef and costs much less. Shredded wheat biscuit is the whole wheat steam-cooked, shredded and baked. Make it your "meat" for ten days and see how much better you feel.
