HIS N E W
ISSUE.
— F ro m New Y o rk W o rld .
IT CANT BE BONE!
HERE is no cause for Democrats and Progressives—losers of peace
and opponents of the horrors and crimes of war — t o feel other
than the greatest confidence in the re-election of President
Wilson.
Friends of his Republican opponent have been making vociferous en
deavor to impress the voters of the country with a fictional strength for
Mr. Hughes’ candidacy.
,
President Wilson "has the Democrats of the country enthusiastically
behind him.
He has the friends of preparedness and peace.
He has every Progressive who really holds policies above prejudice
and deeds above vague promises.
He has the women voters of the states where suffrage is an accom
plished fact, who hold their country first in their esteem and who are
able to see more in the support President Wilson has already given suf
frage than in the opportunist espousal of their cause by a candidate who
before never has shown by his acts even the most condescending sym
pathy.
There are but a meager few s t a t e s where Mr. Hughes’ champions can
give him more than a doubtful chance of securing electoral votes.
No issue has been joined by the speeches of the Republican candidate
which is of sufficient worth to merit serious consideration.
Behind Mr. Wilson there is a long record of deeds done and legislation
enacted which puts him far up abreast of the times and popular demands.
For President Wilson to be defeated there must develop such a reac
tion from present sentiment as would be startling indeed.
. He has the record of achievement.
He has the shibboleth of peace.
He has the accomplishment of preparedness.
He has a Congress which has stood nobly behind his policies and has
written laws that the great masses of voters wiil surely indorse.
He has been direct, diligent, assertive and dominant.
No public man ever cherished loftier ideals or did more to win to them
the public approval.
Beat him ?
T
IT C A N T BE D O N E !
Beat him, and restore to power in the Government the old order, ths
Republican reactionaries, the guardians and agents of privilege and pre
rogative?
Beat him, and blot from the statute books laws that register a century
of progress?
NO , IN D E E D !
Beat him, with the harvests ripenin? into such wealth as the country
never knew before ?
Beat him, with the Government’s credit the talk of the world?
Beat him, with labor employed, wages good and happiness the out
ward semblance of nation wide contentment?
Beat him, with the vaults of the banks of the country bulging and
legislation already enacted which is the guarantee of low interest rates?
Beat him, with his neutrality achievements. which have made us the
one nation secure from the criminal effusion of the red blood of the sons
and fathers of the land ?
Beat him, when law is highly respected, when the national honor is
respected, when the flag has been mr !e the -ignal at once of preparedness
and peace and our people home loving, G->d fearing and ready for higher
achievements in the future than were ever chronicled in the past?
