GIFTED WOMAN IS TO CLOSE LOCAL WILSON CAMPAIGN X With Mrs. Alexander Thomp- sue of The Dulles, one of the fcnsl women speakers In the northwest, as the orator for the oesaslon the local Wilson forces will hold another big rally Sat- nrday evening, the Oregon the- aler being used once more for the purpose. Mrs. Thompson is a candidate for the legislature from Wasco enynty but because of her talent an a speaker she has been tin- able to give much time to her own candidacy. Instead she has been speaking In various parts of the state for Wilson and re- ixirts show she has been greet- ed with good crowds even's where. Rhe was also Oregon's representative on the delega- tion that notified President Wll- son of his nomination by the democratic convention. 4 THE SANE ADVICE OF A MAN WHO KNOWS THE FACTS AND IS YOUR FRIEND In one of Ids kcccIicn Monday Senator Chamberlain said that la llic event of Hughe's election and a consequent wur with Mecii-o It would lie hurd to tell what further oomuleallon.x might arise. Ho IHiluted out that Great Britain.' Germany anil Jaiwn are vitally Inter cMerf In Mexico. It Is Imixn-Hlblo to tell what murvn we niiicht have to settle with those nutloiiN If we take Mexico's twinpllcaiccl burden up on our shoulders. Wlicn the fires of war are once set going- they may eol slay within tlie. confines that we exK-ct. Tliero are t1c an many KuroiMHn nations now at war as there were at the outm of their atriigitle. The senator's words Usn this feature of the Mexican Issue are worthy of thought. He Is chairman of the senate committee oo mili tary affairs. He lias a close knowledge of tlie wiur iwoMem and Ills advice bt hosed upon convlctltuis formed from racts, not from theo- , rles. The subject of military affairs conies to lilm In the line; of dnty and wo liave a right to exMxt sane cnunsel from him. Tlie Kaat Ore Kunian believe1 Uiat Senator Chamberlain told Uie truUi about Mexl co; that he Is right In the view that Hughes' dniilnn meana war and ( that warfare on Uiat country might lead to further International com. Plliations for us. Do our people want ui lay Uie country n to such a sacrifice for tl sake of pulling sluidy finauclul ehestnuta out of Uie fire for Wall street and Ijuudoii mllllonain? This Is no aiHeal to fear; It is ait apixwl to good sense. The Americans are loyal and they will not lose their fortitude through peace. When their country really needs them they will come forward with all Uie valor of old. but they have a right to hesitate over a move to send American youiie mcij to early graves for Uie sake or allowing a luuidful of men to make good wild cat In vestments In a foreign land. Tlie war Issue Is the most ix-rliiicnt thing In Uus cnilgn and the lines are well defined. A voto for Wilson Is a vote for peace with tum or. A vote for Hughes Is a vote to refHidlate tlie Wilson policies and to shove tlie nation toward the Woody pit which lie has so wisely avoided. Take your choice, but you have no moral right to send this country on the road to war unless you are ready to meet your rt of the price.
