"This is a 'Dirty Dora' campaign:
that Is the republican cry," said Ches

trlj) through the middle west on a
business tour.
"That is the overlastlng cry among
the bewildered standpatters: "Dirty
Dora! Dirty Dora! Sho eats mud! She
eats mud!' You've heard that cry
about tho ragged tents of the average
street carnival, no doumt. Well, that's
the sum and substance of the cam
paign cry that I've heard throughout
tho middle west on my business trip.
It's the cry of hysteria, of bewilder
ment, of despair.
'The rural districts in Illinois, Mis
souri, Kansas, Nebraska and neigh
bor states may bo characterized as
one continuous 'roaring camp' for
Wilson. There the Wilson sentiment
is spontaeous. enthusiastic and ex
plosive in a mild way, but marked
with firmness. Unyielding indepon-
denco is more genoral than 1 over saw
It and I have participated more or
less in ten national campaigns.
Strong With Mii-sse.
'In the municipal districts it is dif
ferent in a distinct way. The organ
ization in the cities and towns is more
mechanical. There are more oratory
and brass band blare than have been.
heard for many years. But there is a
noticeable degree of independence in
the daily expressions of choice, even
there.
"Wilson is strong with the masses.
His exalted Ideals attract the consci
entious citizenry everywhere. The
most vigorous charges and claims by
the republican headquarters appear
to fall flat. Even Candidate Hughes'
speeches are regarded, on the whole,
more as a velediction than a benedic
tion. They don't conio from tho
heart. They are not a soul song.
Their superficiality damns them. The
leading implication in all of his
speeches appears to emphasize bis
very low estimate of the average in
telligence of the voters. They ask
for bread and he gives them stone.
The appeal from his own party for
substance, for something that will hit
the mark, for stuff that will stick
throughout tho campaign, at least, is
requited with a handful of chart.
Cheap Falsehoods.
"I have never seen and heard so
much cheap falsehood In a republi
can campaign in all my experience.
It is too dlsgustng to be oven humor
ous. "Tho people are not asking for
stilted platitudes. They want facts.
They want an outline of the proposed
republican policies under another re
publican administration. It is being
discarded everywhere, as you will see
by tho returns from primary elec
tions. "The outstanding fact in tho whole
melee is found In the general satisfac
tion expressed by the people In the
Wilson administration, in its safe and
sane policies and In the extraordinary
remedial and constructive legisla
tion passed by tho national congress
just adjourned. A positive demon
stration is better than empty promise
at all times."
Mr. Cantrcll is a timbcrman and

Personal liberty arguments were ans

"I haven't much patience with the
