I ; (From the New York World.) j 3F, at Mr. Hughe remarked Saturday in Nebraska, he is not i electioneering for war, what is he talking- about? Thej country is at peace, but he has said daily for months that i ... it nr. .t 1 . . e I I it is a cowardly peace. 10 assail trie adm msirauon iot us neu I tralily is to assail it because it is not at war. Practically every critic of the president has no grievance but ! peace. All who agree with Mr. Roosevelt and ex-Senator Ed- I mimrlt wlin tpHpr in rn1 v tn Mr. Oinev aonears this morn ing, are inclined to the belief that true neutrality should carry us to the defense of Belgium even now. All who agree with the German-American Alliance are making incessant complaints because, in the regular course of business, we do not refuse to sell food and munitions to the Entente powers. These policies mean war. ' Mr. Hughes is soliciting the support of the various war parties in this country because all of them are hostile to Mr. Wilson. - ,,'! Jingoes who hate each other as fiercely as they hate the presi- - dent and find in the speeches of Mr. Hughes common ground - 1 -E2 ' - ii nrl I. itA mnftt than twa veari iot unity ana nope, nicy .iu.i. -- I -t ' -i-.L.. i k j. i;L it If thfv can defeat neutral- oi neutraiiiy anu mc; mw - j ity at the polls next month, they will have taken a long step toward war. Every belligerent in Europe is interested in breaking down American neutrality. Every fighting nation thinks it is entitled i- k .u ..J ..;i.ir All of these neooles have strong partisans in the United States. Mr. Hughes is the.r can didate for the presidency, for in his success they see promise of a change, and a change from neutrality can have but one mean ing. That meaning is war, and they are willing to gamble up on the direction the war may take. How war will come or with whom they do not know, nor does Mr. Hughes. Like him, they are prepared to take their chances, the American people themselves being the mighty pawns in a game as desperate as ever was played. This is why pro-German and pro-British attack our neutrality in concert. But there can be no war for the benefit of any alien interest while the scales of neutrality are firmly held at Washington. m. u..,h. .Wtiotteerinr for war because he is attempt- a ! ing to turn his hearers against neutrality. It is neutrality that I would fall with Mr. Wilson, and every warring nation would so ?! interpret the result In the interregnum of nearly four months t.v at i ..ri k inaumiratian of a new nresident. tjDeiwcen uro ciw.iw.. - , this country would be the scene ana uie odjcci oi uuca intrigue and conspiracy, and probably of dovvright aggression. When we repudiate neutrality we mane rcauy im wi , 1 1 invite war. The fact that Mr. Hughes and the strange combina- I tion supporting hhn have not yet agreed as to the nature of the ! war does not change the situation in the least.
