MEETING PROSPERITY IS FOOL'S PARADISE • Don’t Let Smoke From Munition Factories Cloud Your Brain With Belief It's Abiding. PROTECTION OUR BULWARK. Forgst Not tha Dira Conditiona Which Depraaaad Thia Country Undar tha Damocratic Frea Trada Tariff Prior to tha War—-They Will Raturn to Plaguo and Hungar You Unleaa the Rspublic^ns Are Restored to Power. “ When tve contemplate industrial and commercial conditions," says Mr Hughes, “ we see that we are living in a fool's paradise." This la the condi tion to which the administration and its supporters hare deliberately cloaed their eyee. When the war cloud broke over Europe this country was experi encing the most serious depression it had known since 1893, when the Demo cratic party and Its policies were in full control o f the United States. Suddenly there came from over tho sea a demand for munitions of war. Clothing, food, supplies, everything needed by vast armies and by conn tries whose sons were taken from the held and the workshop, never to re turn. As n result our exports and the bal ance of trade in our favor have reach ed figures far surpassing any ever be fore known. Temporarily, especially In the east, there Is no lack of work at high wages, for Europe must pay whatever price America asks. No thoughtful |>erson would Imagine that this condition Is anything like real prosperity. How false It Is we in Oregon, who have the clearer vision. Ix-eause not clouded by the smoke from munitions factories, hove fully felt and fully appreciated. What the Republican candidate for president says about It the Democrats know to be true: "Our opponents promised to reduce the cost o f living. This they have felled to do, but did reduce the op- l-ortunltles of making a living. Let us not forget the conditions that existed In this country under the new tariff prior to the war. Production had de creased: huginess was languishing; new enterprises were not undertaken: Instead of expansion there was cur tailment, and our streets were filled w ith the unemployed." The suspension of these conditions Is not nation wide, only sectional, and dr ends upon the dnration of the war. Those who think otherwise are Indeed living in a fool's paradise.—Portland (Ore.) Telegram At the annual meeting of postmas ters In Washington recently the first assistant postmaster general lauded the postal savings system. That must have been a bitter pill for Postmaster General Burleson, who sat on the some platform with his assistant. When the postal savings bill was passed Mr. Burleson, then a congressman from Texns, voted against It Every vote cast against It was cast by a Demo crat. Not one Democratic congress man voted for It. Yet President W il son says the Republican party has not had n new Idea In thirty years. Whose Idea was It? g o o d POLITICAL JOTTINGS. At that, however, from beginning to end this has been more of a "you kick me and I'll kiss you" administration. Vance McCormick says the Progress slves are stampeding to Wllaon. and I it's a ten to one bet he wishes he could believe It. The Democrats are finding out that pork comes home to root out their standing. The men and women who prefer a i man who does things to a man who j writes notes about them will vote for Hughes. Government by correspond ence takes too long to get anywhere, but government by deeds Is always on the job. Those who are concerned to know what Mr. Hughes would have done had he been In Mr. Wilson's place | may rest assured he would not have done as Mr. Wilson has. And that la answer enough. Mr. Hughe* la not only going direct to the public, but the public ki going direct to him. A genuine American fifty-fifty! President Wilson’s alarm clock Is ringing at 5 o'clock these mornings. He can reach out o f bed and turn It off the morning o f March 5. Postmaster General Burleson Is too foxy a politician to adopt for his de partment the McAdoo rule forbidding treasury dr uent employees partic ipating In Mr. Burleson real izes that ters are entitled to some exer< - the money. There are no strings or mental res ervations to the public pledges of ad ministrative reform given by Charles EL Hughes His record as governor of New York guarantees the fulfill ment of every promise. Democrats are now convinced that Charles Evans Hughes Is a warm prop osition. It Is gratifying, indeed, to find that Mr. Wilson still stands on tho suffrage question where he stood at the begin ning of bis administration. He has changed on about everything else.— Philadelphia Evening Ledger. Mr. Hughes says there should he firm dealing In Mexican affairs. May be so. but we have had enough o f the firm o f Wilson.

FARMERS SIZE UP HUGHES AS “ PRETTY GOOD FELLOW” Fargo. N. D.—Charles E. Hughes campaigned for the first time among the sturdy farmers o f the eastern part of North Dakota and left behind him the reputation o f being a "pretty good fellow ” He was forced to undergo a critical scrutiny lieforc the verdict was given. Mr. Hughes preached the doctrines o f government efficiency, Americanism, tariff as protection to the farmers and It was the Instinct of a lawyer preparedness, and In each Instance won for Flughes to support his damning applause, despite the fact that the ‘ barges against Wilson by calling WU-^ farmers nre not the strongest advo son s own secretary of state as a wit-* cates of the last named Issue. ness to prove them. They cheered for preparedness the loudest when Mr. Hughes told them It strikes one that Instead o f wildly that It meant not militarism, but abil hustling for the state of Maine Vance ity to uphold national honor. As they cheered for Mr. Hughes one McCormick might do better work by broad shouldered old farmer said, "It'a faking his wrecking crew to the west teen use there's something about him to repair the Democratic bridges that are being dynamited by Justice :hat make* you believe he's telling the truth."
