a hlzb proU4llvc tahfT to a told tbc wt)rt, that very evidently, there Is hut onr answer: If Charles r.vans Hushes Is elected president, hacked by a republican tnfcTtw of the Vatsotj-Ncvv-IIi kej'-Ho)t-SmHit-lVnrts-i'-f;al-liiicr, etc., -chool, the non-artian tariff (tnnmlsslon of experts crrat-nl under WtMnlrovv Wilson by the last ciuuirrsvs, is to lx put to sleep, and the old mctho,l of tariff legislation by parti.-ati juclintc. industrial coercion, and solonie ignorance, is to U restored. I'nder the system provided by this nonpartisan coinmKsion law, the I'nite! States nccil never have another tariff, protective or for revenue, without provision for contingencies. The Wil-on ad minist nit ion has not waited until It Is com routed by a serious situation to meet the cinerscncy. Jt has provided in advancc for that cmerncrwy. It luvs taken the tariff entirely out of xditks and has taken politic entirely out of the tarirf. It makes no difference whether an einer uency arises during a war, !cfore a war, or after a war. The tariff adjustment Is placed iikiii a business basis. The people liave lontc since tirevlof: having tariff regulation by partisan ratnl! Ign clamor. Stub things regulate nothing. They merely are u-ed a-s a plea for votes and usually upon such a ridiculous basis of .H'C illation that they insult human inlelligenee. Progressives in their platform of 191- demanded the removal of the tariff fiom polities and the culmination of politics from the tariff. Republican orators and statesmen conforming to the demand of thsc four million vote rs profcsMd to be for the same thing. The democratic party under Woodrovv Wilson instituted the reform by passing the law providing for the iioii-'vartisaii tariff oniniission. Ample preparation was made In this law for all the work devolving uon this most imIortant commission. Its duty will le to reHrt to csngress antl the president the Investigation of all tariff schedules and it will !c absolutely on a non-partisan basis. Xo Mlitical considerations will lie allowed to Ik lnje-tetl or have any weight. Republican orators ranging from Charles I'. HuglieM dewn the line to the so-1h)x windjammers, proclaim that the only thli'g which will save this country Is a high tariff. They pretend to have decided on all schedules what is going to Ix net-essary without investigating anything. A very small orlion of the -ommunity is gtlng to Ik? fooled by all litis t lap-trap. Not a single one of the omtor.s or windjammers has liad u word to say against a tariff commission; in fact, they all professed to favor it until they adopted the slogan "Whatever WILson tloess Is wrong.' They do not dare to mention any of the great reforms which Wll-m has brought about, and so they ignore them. They are a r raid to s'wak of the non-partisan tariff cenimission, which puts the tarifT on the same IkusIs that any great orioratlon would handle a most vital part of its business. If they were to mention it the public, might stc the joker in their tariff argument tarifT making being already out of arti.an hands. The democratic party has taken thorough precaution against any emergency that may arise at any time ami has provided heavy icnalties In lines and imprl?Jonment for violating any of the provisions of the anti-dumping law which effectively prevents unfair competition with home manufactories by the agents of any foreign country imHrting goods. Inclusion of Imports Is provided for, if necessary. I'nder this law tho president has full owcr to regulate any attempt to unload manufactured goods or products or the soil from any foreign country on any Iva sis that would ermlt cheap productions of other countries IveIng plactd in unfair comictltloii with farmers, manufacturers, or producers .of any kinel in the I'nltcd States. It is the most comprehensive law on the subjtct ever enacted, or that ever could Ik enacted, by an American congress for the full protection of all American Industries. The e-ountry tried to get this legislation from the republicans, under Ktosevcit, and again under Taft, but It failed. The camvaign of 15M)S was waged. In part, on the jMiint, with the promise that the tariffs under the IHluJcy law were to 1k revised downward, bysome sueii pnxvss; but insteael, when the l'ay ne-Ahlrieh law npKarel. it was found that the rates had 1hcii revised upwanls.

Wihons Handling of Foreign Affairs is Called Masterly

xi:w youk. x. v., Oct. so. Lewis Nixon, a cb.e student of international affairs and for many year.s a prominent figure in public and commercial life, in a statement eliseus.-iiriK the issues of the campaign, says that I'res't Wilson's handling of tho many problems that have- grown en;t tf the European war has been masterly. Mr. Nixon has been traveling throughout the country for the past six months ami has had an opportunity to observe the trend of public opinion in many states. "The next five months" ho says. "May require decisions of vital moment to our country, and the people of the United States are beginning to realize that a four months' twilight zone of doubt and uncertainty as to position taken and policy to ho upheld might make us the principal sufferers from the after effects of the war. "Kven republicans with the real interests of their country at heart know that this is no time for a man yet groplng.ht the dark for policies to enunciate to take the helm."

The only conspicuous representative of labor on whom Mr.' Hughes has been able to rely in his efforts to alienate v.a-e earners from I'res't Wilson, today gave eiut a statement declaring for I'res't Wilson's re-election, lie is John M. Hanlon, editor of the Legislative Labor News of New York state, whose editorial endorsing Mr. Hughes' "record as governor", hasbeen widely circulated by the republican managers, and repeatedly read from the platform by Mr. Hughes himself. Mr. Hanlon said. "I have been supporting I'res't "Wilson for re-election both in the columns of my paper and wherever I have had the opportunity to express my convictions orally, ever since he has accepted the re-nomination. Mr. Wilson has earned the unstinted support of every wage earner of the. country by the splendid program of humanitarian legislation he has championed and put into effect at the national rapitol.

A similar appreciation could have been issued of the work of (lov. Woodrow Wilson of New Jersey. Since that period both have occupied national spheres of action. Mr. Wilson as president, has fulfilled every expectation aroused by his career as governor. Mr. Hughes has not. As a candidate for president. Mr. Huglus has declared his opposition to the Wilson program of legislation and seized upon the tight hour law for railroad men to emphasize that opposition. In disi-ussinc it he has attacked the sincerity and intelligence of organized labor ;nd charged it -ith greed by declaring that it intimated con-ress into enacting a "wage law designed to create extra vvazes for more than eight hours ef work a dav."

NFW YORK A .striking Wesson to the foreign born is voiced in a letter to Pros' t Wilson by H. Stein, a t'erman automobile dealer in Long P.ranch, N. J. Mr. .Stein says in part: 'T am not an American by birth, but am by., adoption, arid although it is natural" that my good wishes should go with the land of my nativity, where I have relatives, I put American interests ' first, because; I think it is not only a duty I owe America and to my own interests, but also because I believe what it will be to the advantage of all L'urope in the end for America to keep out of the war. "I am therefore, supporting you, although I have been a republican. The big thing is that you protected American interests without bloodshed in a war-mad world. A new president would mean uncertainty at home and abroad which would add to our problem of. keeping the peace, and without peace there can be neither prosperity nor progress.

Y ATS( ) M CA N SO PIN STUY. Editor the News-Times: . James Eli Watson said at the high school Saturday night that the Adamson bill is a gold brick. Will he repeal it? Ho says it will reduce wages. Then why did the railroads oppose it? Why did the brotherhoods call off the strike? Watson says that under the Adamson law the engineer on the passenger train from Indianapolis to Cincinati who makes his run in four hours will get only half his present wage. The Adarason eight hour day applies to the freight service alone. This is a striking bit of his sophistry. Watson says the protective tariff is necessary to keep up wages. Does it keep up wages in railroading? No, that is done by "collective bargaining". Does it ktep up the wages of carpenters, masons, plumbers? What schedule protects them? On the other hand the industries protected the highest pay their men the least. It was to compel the steel manufacturers to put some of their protected earnings into tho pay envelope that the progressives adopted their slogan. "Pass Prosperity Around". Watson fails to explain how we can send goods to China and successfully compete with Japan there, when vve need a protective tariff to keep Japanese roods out of America. how we can compete with the "pauper labor" of Europe in South American ports but not in our own. Watson mentions Mexico. Therehas always been trouble there, and I, for one, hope there will be trouble there until freedom is achieved, until representative government takes the place of a ruthless exploitation of the peons more heartless than the debaucehery of the peasants of France before the liastile fell. If Mexico crushes Diazism in a century, it will be c. century well spent. Watson speaVs of Lincoln. Sixty odd years ago the great emancipator said through his secretary of state. "For a few years past the condition of Mexico has been so unsettled as to raise the eiuestion on both sides the Atlantic whether the time has not come when fome foreign power ought to intervene to establish a protectorate and guarantee its continuance. You will not fail to assure the gove-nment of Mexico that the president neither has," nor can have, any sympathy with such designs, in whatever quarter they may arise or whatever character they may take on". Hughes says. "America neds a Lincoln". She has one. Oct, 30. 1516. ('ROTIL'.s.

After being closeted with Roosevelt two and one-half hours Hughes announced: "We talked very fully over all matters and were in complete accord!", 8. Three days later Roosevelt, speaking of Hughes, said: ' His high qualities must recommend hiiri to the csie-m of the w hobworld, particularly to the sympathy of tho allies!" 9. On Aug. 31, Roosevelt condemned Wilson's "administration for failing to live up to its duty and resist the invasion of Ibds-iuu! 10. Two days later. Hughes declared that ho had read Roosevelt's speech of Aug. .11 and endorsed every word of it Now add it all up: Roosevelt is for any man who is in annnl with him. Hughes is in complete accord with Roosevelt. Roosevelt announces that he is for Hughes. Roosevelt is Anti-German, so is Hughes. Roosevelt is Pro-Ally: So is Hughes. , HERE'S ANOTHER AMiLE. Take a fresh start: I. The New York Tribune, eternally republican, on June i said: "The German-Americans have adopNui him (Mr. Hughes ;m their candidate. They have servea notice on th republican j art y that it must not nominate Root or Roosevelt, bcause both are unsatisfactory to the German-Americans and tlo'y have proclaimed Mr. nughes their favorite." 11. On June 3, The Tribune said: "Is thre any essential difference betwe n the president's policy ''watchful waiting' in the pa-t and the present course of Mr. Hughes that has already enlisted the Hyphenate support?" III. On June G, The Tribune said: "If Mr. Justice Hughes is nominated at Chicago in advance of any declaration ly him of hiviews on vital issues he will be defeated at tin polls. No German-American has made the smallest concealm'tit of the purpose of the Hyphens to use Mr. Hughes 1o nforce German wishefi at Washington Tho people of the Fnited states do not and will not prefer republican cowardice to democratic. T! German-Americans have endorsed Mr. Hughes If the republican national convention accepts the German-American andidate (it did), and Mr. Hughes consents to be the Gorman -An rican candidate even for purposes of obtaining the repuhli' -an nomination (he did), Woodrow Wilson will be reelec ted." He will. IV. On June 13, The Tribune s.aid: "Continuous silence (on '!: Hyphen question) will be fatal." Would The Tribune call it "cowardice" that Mr. Hughes bvt himouth shuPon that vital issu for 130 days and then offers a cheap paraphrase of Pres't Wilson's ringing rebuke to "that small alien element amongst us which put loyaltv to anv foreign power before loyalty to the United States?" Too late; it doesn't go far enough. It has "the appearai. , s;,y--"The Evening Post" of being dragged from him by e-nts, imfead of being the voluntary expression of his indignation at an un-Am rican conspiracy. Held back all these months, Mr. Hushe.-' beP:t. 1 statement has now the air of having been forced from him by i!,e revelations about the O'Leary Teuton-Celt p. Otting.-." Now let's reduce it to the Lowest Common Denominator. Evasion . Hughes, the Pussyfoot: Candidate of the Hyphen---by the Hy: !.- :: for the Hyphen; Branded by the organ of the republican party as cowardly silent because he doesn't and dassn't r-p idi.e thHyphen: But in complete a-cord with Teddy w' o hat. s Ip.p!.-:.-and eats 'era alive and won't tolerate n candidate who i-n't -j 'rally anti-German and "acceptable to the Allies."
