Eainbrldge Colby, of New Tork. dis
missed the whole Mexican question as
a mere "Jack-o'-lantern Issue" In a
laudatory address on Voodrow Wilson
at the Armory last night. He pictured
the President as "a modest, calm, si
lent, patient man," agaiinst whom he
drew the startling- contrast of Charles
Evans Hughes as "this Impoverished
hobo of a Presidential candidate," in
eearch of a campaign Issue.
Incidentally, he took a lusty rap or
two at Colonel Theodore Roosevelt,
with whom he used to be quite chum
my. Indeed, Mr. Colby not long ago
admired the Colonel so much that he
nominated him at the Progressive Na
tional Convention In 1912, and again In
1916.
Colonel Is Assailed.
Apparently the parting was one of
tome bitterness to Mr. Colby, for he
scornfully termed "hero worshipers"
those Progressives who, with the
Colonel, are supporting Mr. Hughes,
and he speared the Colonel again and
again with sarcastic shafts. . .
He referred to him. among other
things, as no longer "a Progressive
at all, but a repentant Kepublican."
He cried that the Colonel's sharp criti
cism of the Wilson Administration was
"'unjust and inexcusable." This criti
cism, he added, "is received by Colonel
Iloosevelt's admirers with pain and
mortification."
He praised President Wilson's han
dling of the Mexican situation, and de
clared that Colonel Roosevelt and Mr.
Hughes didn't know Mexico, nor what
they were talking about when they dis-
cussed it.
Colonel llanley rmidea.
Colonel "Bill" Hanley, of Burns, who
ran for United States Senator two years
ago on the Progressive ticket. Intro
duced Mr. Colby to the large audience.
Judge Samuel White, Democratic state
chairman, opened the meeting.
In his discussion of Colonel Roose
velt Mr. Colby said in part last night:
"I had assumed that Colonel Roose
velt in his speeches would have some
thing to say to. the Progressives, ex
plaining his refusal longer to continue
the fight for Progressive principles.
"You Progressives distinctly, recall
his pledge, delivered In 1913, that win
or lose, whatever the outcome, I am
with you, and I am for this cause, to
light to the end." But 1 And that he
Is not now a Progressive at all, but a
repentant Republican.
"He has nothing whatever to. say
about the principles to which he gave
only a little while ago his pledge of
unceasing devotion. He offers no ex
cuse -or justification for his abandon
ment of the Progressive party, but
frankly says that he is working in the
Interest of the success of the Repub
lican party.
"Colonel Roosevelt in his word to the
Progressives says he wishes them to
do their part in removing 'the moral
stain' which Mr. Wilson's Administra
tion has fastened upon the country.
"There ought to bo some limit to
party rancor and personal hate, and
I deeply deplore the fact that a man
who has rendered such services to the
Nation as Colonel Roosevelt should de
scend to such vulgar attacks upon a
man who is not only loved by his coun
trymen but admired by the world as
few in our history have been loved and
admired.
Citing as his reason why he would
support President Wilson, Mr. Colby
said he did so because "he is In truth
the foremost of Progressives.
Of the Mexican situation, Mr. Colby
said in part:
"Mexico is a beautiful country with
a picturesque and attractive civiliza
tion. It is a universal feeling among
travelers to Mexico that It would be a
great pity if this distinct and .homely
phase of human development should
give way to the pressure of our teem
ing population and our commercial ag
gressiveness.
"There are many cultivated and
learned men In Mexico, particularly
among the young men in the capital
city. These men are as choice a set of
men as can be found anywhere in the
world. They are . deeply sensible of
Mexico s misfortunes. They know the
history of misgovernment and oppres
sion of Mexico, and they are resolved.
like the patriots that they are, to re
claim Mexico from corruption and op
pression, and to lead the people back
to the pathways of education and order.
"There can be no solution to the
Mexican question save only such a solu
tion as Mexico works out for herself.
Liberty cannot be bestowed upon n
lions. It must be achieved by them.
And a nation hasia right to the strug
gles and sacrifices which are a part
of the process of national self-Tealiza
tion.
Improvement la Believed.
"The reason the Mexican problem has
been so persistent a problem is because
no solution of it has been sought ex
cept by force and repression. These
measures only operate-u-pon the surface
of the problem, and do not' conduct it
any nearer a solution. President Wil
son recognizes this truth. Every one
conversant with Mexico recognises It
also. And every student of Mexican
affairs, who has approached a- consid
eration of Mexico sympathetically and
without prejudice, recognises it
"Mexico is coming along. Her ex
ports to this -country' in the last 10
months have shown a prodigious in
crease, and her Imports from this
country have doubled. The greater
part of Mexico is today tranquil. We
read no morer-of attles. The schools
are being reopened. The authority of
the do facto Government Is recog
nized over substantially the whole of
Mexico.
"How wanton. how unjustifiable.
how revolting a thing it would be
should we, now that Mexico is con
valescent, throw her back once more
into disorder and strife by our own
armed intervention.
"Is it not infinitely more in keeping
with American traditions, and with the
American character, that we should
regard Mexico's struggles along the
lathway to, liberty and civil freedom
with hopeful indulgence, and with pa
tience, and with friendship!
"Ms it not obvious that this course
will lay the foundation of a genuine
friendship on the part of the Mexican
for tis, and is it not clear that to all
the nations of Central and South Amer
ica et ch a policy on our part, will tend
strongly to eradicate from the Latin

MRS. CHARLES DAA tllHSOX.
Led by Mrs. Charles Dana Gibson, known the world over for her beauty.
members of the Women's Bureau of the Democratic National Committee are
making a campaign of New York City in favorof the re-election of Presi
dent Wilson.
This will not be the first time Mrs. Gibson has taken the stump for Pres
ident Wilson. During his campaign In 1912 she toured the country, making
speeches in all the larger cities.
Mrs. Gibson Is the wife of the famous artist and is a sister of Mrs. William
Waldorf Astor and Mrs. Reginald Brooks. Bore their, marriage the sisters
were known as the Langhorne beauties.
SEATTLE. Wash.. Oct. 12. (Special.)
Taken by and large, the Lister and year-
the McBrlde drives of the past week
have not affected the Gubernatorial sit
uation. There Is an outstanding fea
ture that the Listerites have-' shown
apparent gains in Skagit, Lewis, Yak
ima and poeslbly one or two other
counties where the Govertior has rid
den the so-called prohibition issue to
an exhausted finish. But the Lister
gains do not prevail generally, nor does
it mean that his campaign issue is un
usually popular.
McBrlde has been campaigning- on
the East Side for the most part of the
past week, dipping into Snohoralth
County during the last two days. It is
true that he has-been greeted by large
and enthusiastic audiences and that he
has left a very good impression.
Lliitcrltea WeaRer Tlian Wilson.
It is well known in political circles
that the Republican forces will drive
at Lister during the coming two weeks
and that the Listerites will strengthen
their offensive just before the general
election. So the work of the past week
leaves things practlcarfTy as they were.
And this Is:
McBrlde Is far stronger than his Pres
idential candidate (Hughes); and Lister
la correspondingly weaker than Presi
dent Wilson.
Something in the air Indicated at one
time during the past week that Lister
might have gained, but as the week
closed there was a pronounced Hughes
gain. How either of the gubernatorial
candidates could figure a week's advan
tage is beyond explanation, for it seems
from a surface showing and a close
eramlnatlon that neither of the-two has
disturbed conditions materially.
Republicans' Gain. Lister Marks Time.
One is led to believe from all available
reports that McBrlde has the better of
the fight to date. - After all. that Is a
secondary consideration in analyzing
the state fight. The real significance
is that the Republican organization has
made progress while the Democrats
have not.
COLVMBUS, C Oct. 16. The official
crop report for Ohio. Issned by Secre
tary Stauffer of the State Board of
Agriculture, shows a shortage on the
wheat, oats, rye, corn and potatoes for
1916. The wheat crop is estimated at
18.904,678 bushels, or 11 bushels to the
acre, as compared with a crop of 36,
030.238, op 20 bushels to the acre. last
year. Thirteen per cent of the crop

Interested Crowds Gather Aronnd
Harancrners, Whose Subjects
Cover Wide Range-Automobiles
Used as Rostrums.
The campaign has reached the hip-
hip-hurrah! stage that marks the finish
of political contests hereabouts.
For the Alder-Btreet canyon last
night seethed with street speakers, a
sure sign that the voters have been
wrought up to the point of campaign
madness where they will stand flat
footed on the pavement for long periods
with their mouths open, drinking in
the night air and harking to the more
or less convincing arguments of pollti
cal spellbinders.
It is a form of obsession that over
takes the populace just before any vote
counting; it is prima facie evidence
that the campaign has swung into the
final stretch.
Political Speakers Active.
It arrives every election aeaeon Just
after the "if the election were to be
held tomorrow" stage.
Automobiles at strategic points In
the Alder-street chasm were the ros
trums of half a dozen political sign
posts last night, each pointing the way
to certain happiness and prosperity for
the Nation. True, they pointed differ
ent ways, but everyone who listened
oould be suited by choosing the speaker
with whom they were in full accord
and In this way be satisfied fully with
the correctness of the speakers pollti
cal counsel.
With a placard upon which was dis
played a very much bored-looking
camel for a background, J. Sanger Fox
active worker for the abolition of all
oases in the great Oregon desert, urged
Mipon his hearers to vote for a total
drought. The conventional ana temper
amental camel seemed an appropriate
argument, too, for what but a camel
can live when all the sands are hot and
dry. and where drinks are even more
than eight days apart?
Dry Question Discussed.
There were those who had the temer
ity to speak right out for the saloon.
and to some of these Mr. Fox allowed
the use of his rostrum for a few mo
ments. One such speaker conolnded
his remarks with the explanation, "He's
pulling me by the coat," as he looked
reproachfully at Mr. Fox and sat down.
One suspected that he used these
speakers somewhat as a hunter uses
decoy ducks. He allowed them to let
fly a whole shower of arguments, and
then he brought the whole flight to
earth with one well-directed shot.
Socialist Orator on Job.
Representatives 'of the Woman's
party farther down the street asked
support for those political powers who
will favor the Susan B. Anthony amend
ment, being the desired Nation-wide
suffrage law.
A Socialist orator on his soapbox held
forth to a considerable group. Nothing
that the other speakers said dovetailed
at all with his speech, for everything
as at present organized was wrong, in
his opinion, and he wanted to shatter
it all to bits and "remould it nearer to
the heart's desire."
Farther down the street one could
take his choice, for there- were various
attractions. A seer with long hair had
literature to purvey that explained
where hell is and where Cain got his
wife. There was also literature in pro
phetic vein. " One could take his choice:
it all depended upon what topic arrested
his interest.
On the whole, it was a wild night on
Alder street, one that will be duplicated
many times between now and the fate
ful date of November 7, when so many
political fortunes will be decided, when
some aspirants will go into the dis
card and others will come to the top
triumphant.
From now on it's open season for
street speakers.

Speaker Fails to Appear.
Records Might Have Been.
Suppose that George A. Lee were the
opponent. Lister would promptly have
charged him with full corporate respon
sibility for the Attorney-General, Pub
lic Service Commission,. Industrial In
surance Commission and all other
guessable responsibilities.
Lister Confidence Waning;.
Pages could be wasted in a compari
son of conditions between the Lister
headquarters of today and -those of
Tour years ago where partisans were
out working most of the time. The
chair - warmers were noticeable four
years ago by their absence. They are
conspicuous now by their presence. The
transition of a chair-warmer to an ac
tive worker is along the confidence
route, the motorman being Mr. Satis
fied. '
As a bedrock fact, two weeks before
the election they do not. appear to have
the feeling of confidence about the
Lister headquarters that they do about
McBrlde rooms.
If Wilson sweeps the state undoubt
edly he will carry Lister with him. If
Wilson trickles through or is beaten
McBrlde is to be elected, for Lister is
weaker than Wilson, while McBrlde is
stronger than Hughes. No politician
disputes that fact, so it can be accepted
as a basis for analyzing present conditions.
McBrlde Not In Doubt.
It is found that McBrlde from the
very beginning and Lister from the
same time considered themselves the
party nominees. Both anticipated the
situation of nomination but with this
very (Treat difference: Lister never
knew who his opponent might be, while
McBrlde always did. Lister bad a vari
able set of rules to guide his campaign
and was to be governed by the man
nominated. -McBride never had to figure
on beating anybody save Lister. So in
a preparedness campaign McBride had
all the advantage.
. To consider it closer, suppose that
W. J. Sutton had been Lister s Repub
llcan opponent- Promptly Lister would
have challenged the Cheney State Sena
tor to a series of - Joint debates and
"Would have demonstrated that he was
the better orator and might have con
vinced the 'public that he represented
all the Sutton issues.
Or that the genial and highly compe
tent Jim McNeely, of lacoma, got by.
Then all the changes would have been
rung on McNeely's various political af
filiations and his record as a lumber
man and a member- of the Legislature,
neither of which, it might be remarked
parenthetically. McNeely has to apolo
gize for, but a politician does not want
a record of any kind when be forgets
himself and runs for office.
Frost might have been attacked as a
reactionary; the old Hodge record was
available for a fight on Sheriff Bob
and it went that way down the line.
Lister Plans Made Late.
So It happens that McBride. a stub
born fact, has plowed along with a
full knowledge of what he has to over.
come, while Lister, at the last moment,
had to plan his campaign.
What the difference may be in a nor
mal Republican state, where the Re
publican nominee outlined his cam
paign and where the defensive Demo
cratic candidate had to wait until the
last minute to plan his then break
with his state committee Is something
that has political significance.
If one wanted to go further into the
situation, there Is the story that the
Democrats are financing the campaign
of James E. Bradford. Progressive can
didate for Governor, in the hope he will
poll enough Republican votes to win
for Lister. There are charges that
