WHAT WOULD HUGHES DO?
Judge Hughes'' letter of acceptance
is in keeping with his course since
his name was first mentioned for the
presidency, non-committal. He attacks
the policies of the president; but fails
to tell what he would do under like
circumstances.
-The president has kept this nation
from war with the Teutons. What
would Hughes have done?
The president had several confer
, ences with Germany after the sinking
of the Lusitania, by his diplomacy set
tling a matter that was full of uncer
tainty. What would Hughes have
done?
Several serious matters have come
up, which have been amicably settled,
as they should hare been, some of
.them after considerable delay, which
was natural under the circumstances
that have existed. What would
Hughes have done?
The administration permitted the
sale of munitions by the manufactur
ers of this country to any one who
wished to buy. What would Hughes
have done?
In short why doesn't Mr. Hughes
be constructive and tell what he
would himself do, instead of criticis
ing some one who has actually ac
complished great things for his fel
Jow citizens and nation.
The truth is. Judge Hughes belongs
on the bench, and not in a presiden
tial campaign. He is afraid to make
himself clear on important issues. He
may have critical capacity, but he cer
tainly has no constructive ability.
His letter as a caimpaign document
is a failure, a document that will
strengthen the cause of Mr. Wilson,
rather than detract from it.
Hughes is. a good deal like critics
of the Bible, the Ingersolls of the
world. -
- They attempt to tear it to pieces;
but they give nothing in place of its
teachings, and the good book grows
stronger all the time. Mr. Hughes
tries to tear down, the same way, the
works of a great man that have done
an immense service for the people;
but he gives pothing in place of it
The masses are not going to be de
ceived. They can see with their own
eyes the accomplishments of the pres
ident, and criticisms are going to
make friends for him, rather than en
emies. ' '.. iiiV
ROOSEVELT SIZED UP.
" Eugene Guard: Colonel Roosevelt,
who said last winter that he did not
desire the republican nomination for
president unless the nation was in
" a mood for something heroic," has
a full page article in Collier's con
cerning the Americans who belong to
the French aviation corps. The writer
recounts their brave and brilliant ex
ploits, and gives them unstinting
praise.
Every voter should read the inter
esting article, for it reveals the inner
workings of the colonel's heroic
mind. After relating how several of
the brave aviators were wounded and
all but killed, our noble ex-president
proceeds to regret that the young men
of this country are denied the oppor
tunity of showing their heroism.
The colonel points out explicitly
that the sinking of the Lusitania and
killing of Americans in Mexico, of
fered abundant opportunity to give
Americans a chance to be heroic, but
that a supine and cowardly adminis
tration continues to heartlessly deny
them.
Is such a man sane? The article is
an expression of disappointment and
bitter criticism, because our young
men are not given an opportunity to
kill and be killed because some part
of the world is not deluged with
American blood.
$50,000 GONE.
Oregonians are just getting it "thru
their heads that the last legislature
threw nway $50,000 for flax experi
ments at the state penitentiary. It is
uM m h' mncticallv admitted that
the money has been wasted with noth
ing to show for it. All manner ot ex
cuses are being made for the failure
nf the matter: but the fact remains
that there is nothing to show for the
money. One paper says it is due to
the use of blundering methods. What
ever the fact is it is to be .regretted
hot the experiment has failed, and
also that $50,000 of the people's mon
ey is gone.
When the next legislature convenes
it will probably be the same old story.
along some other line.
MISFITS
Anvbodv can criticise. In almost
any neighborhood there are several
people who can tear their neghibors
who have actually accomplished
things, to pieces.
Just like Judge Hughes.
The merchant who succeeds best is
the one who runs his own business
and builds it up on his own merit, re
gardless of his competitor. ; j
1 What the world wants is something
constructive. Mr. Wilson has probab
ly been the most constructive presi
dent in the history of the United
States. He has had the initiative and
kept it.
Wade Hampton beat Bessie Mills
at Ashland. No arrests. By the way
both are race horses.
An Ashland man has obtained some
notoriety by walking fourteen miles
backwards to the top of Mt. Ashland.
taking about six hours. How easy is
fame.
Others go thru life in a hum drum
way, hardly geting their names per
s mally in the papers.
A certain S. F. woman has a real
cause for divorce. Her hubby allowed
her only $500 a month pin money.
Jack Burroughs in the Bulletin has
a good one on the Egotist:
The Egoist a helpmeet had;
She helped him meet his bills;
She did her part when times were bad
In fever and in chills;
For better or for worse she took
This Egoist in hand
And tried by every hook and crook
To make his soul expand.
And here is all the thanks she got
"Since you're my property,
I frankly tell you, you are not
" Quite good enough for me.
Your imperfections jar my nerves;
Your manner's rude and coarse;
I hate your angles ?"d your curves1
Let's solve it by divorce."
