Our President's fourteen terms do not help the SELFISH classes in any country, but they favor all the masses of people. They seek to put an end to war AND THE THINGS 'THAT BREED WAR. WITH COLONEL ROOSEVELT denouncing the whole basis of these peace terms and Senator Lodge rejecting all the fundamentals, NOW, what could the country expect the Republican leaders to do with a peace treaty if they came into control of Congressional committees? Having condemned such a treaty in advance, they could not ratify it without stultifying themselves. BY THEIR SPEECHES, Colonel Roosevelt and Senator Lodge have served notice on the country that they will not approve a peace treaty based on the Wilson principles of peace. , . THIS IS THE ISSUE which is now squarely before the country. The people have to decide wheth er they will follow President Wilson or Colonel Roosevelt, whether they want peace of liberalism and justice, or a peace of imperialism, standpatism, militarism, that leaves all the old causes of war exactly where they were before we undertook to root out militarism and the rule of force and war itself. YOU VOTERS Must Decide These Issues for Yourselves and Your Children PRESIDENT WILSON STANDS FOR Winning the war, destroying militarism and Kaiserism. c HE INSISTS "that adequate guarantees be given and then that national armaments will be reduced to the lowest point consistent with domestic safety." THE PRESIDENT STANDS for a LEAGUE OF NATIONS. This league will protect nations, large and small, and permit every people desiring freedom to determine their own destiny. Everybody wants this except those who will profit by the old order. The most momentous diplomatic conference in all history is NOW being held in France. Show the world, by your vote of confidence in President Wilson, that he speaks as President of the United States for a united country. Never mind what political party youare originally affiliated with. THE BIG Q UESTDON II O O Are You Behind Your President in the Most Critical Moment of the World's History? Austria-Hungary, Bulgaria and Turkey Have Crumbled. Germany Is Next. Let us stand behind our leader, so that me may complete our victory and obtain a conclusive and enduring- peace. v Do not vote to hamper the President, as surely would be the result if one branch of the Government is Republican and the other Democratic. President McKinley, in the Spanish-American War, asked for a united Nation through the medium of a Republican majority, and was supported in this appeal by former President Harrison, Colonel Roosevelt, Senator Lodge, Senator Penrose, as well as Democratic voters by the people of the country without respect to party lines. Vote to sustain the President who has appealed to the patriot ism of Republicans as well as Democrats to consider country above party to say whether the people shall have the leader ship of President Wilson, or of his political opponents. Back up your President who is recognized everywhere as true spokesman of liberals and pro gressives throughout the world. Now that the hour when the triumph of President Wilson's program for the liberation of the world is at hand, shall our president be politically discredited? Do Not Vote to Embarrass the President: Hold Up His Hand; Vote to Sustain Him by Electing Democratic Senators anid Representatives to Speak: for You: PAID ADVERTISEMENT BY THH DEMOCRATIC HATIOXAI, COMMIT1!
