I oorlavcnm Iia r a&-icsnr That of Senator Lodge, Senator Penrose and Colonel Roosevelt, who
the leadership of .Woodrow .Wilson?
would dominate a Republican majority and block the President,-or
f"1"fc Tlff fffll fC e ePuncan Leaders are on record against" president Wilson's fourteen war aims, which
VV 1IC&L J.O UIC iLlllI have been applauded by public opinion throughout the world, and constitute the basis of an
enduring peace. 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.

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:
