EKM AN-AM KIMOAN orain'stations and the German press in tho United States arc engaged in another German drive this time against President AVilson, be cause lie has not allowed lierlin to dictate his foreign pol icies. The 'German-American Alliance boasts that its influ ence nominated Hughes, and in the recent New York prim aries defeated Bacon lor senator. The New York German press boasts that the German influence dictated the repub iictin nominees. A ilson s crime in the German-American view, consists in having forced the cessation of the German practice of sinking by submarines unarmed ocean liners without warning; of maintaining American rights by refusing to permit congress to order American citizens off passenger ships of belligerents; and of eoniplyincr with the accented principle of international law in refusing to place an ein- nargo upon munitions. Jle is also censored for haviiitr I t. ,T t 1 l i . . . , . . n oroKcu up me uerman pints against American industries, At the same tunc, Pierpont Morgan, the American over-lord of British and allied interests in hc United States, the Navy League and various other organizations strongly pro-ally in sentiment, are conducting a drive against the president for not declaring war against Ger many over the violation of Belgian neutrality and the sink- nig ot uie ijusuania. Theodore Eoosevclt and other pro-ally Orators are stumping Hie country lor Hughes, accusing the president ol cowardice lor resorting to diplomacy rather than force to settle the quarrel with Germany-aiid 'condemning the president's peace policy. ' ' The reprisal measures passed bv congress and being cn- 1',. ....... I : j. ii. . i. 'i. i . r. ... . r. iujccu agitniHi uic JJiinsn intcrierence wan American mails and American trade also cause a hysterical outburst among tiie allies' sympathizers against the president. No higher tribute could be paid the president's policy of neutrality than to be condemned by both belligerents, No better proof could be offered of his neutrality. The president's policy has been in the interest of the united states and in the interest of humanity, not in the interest of any belligerent. AVith the sympathizers of all belligerents actively cam paigning against the president because of his American policy, it is up to true Americans to rallv to the Hinmm-r of AVoodrow AVilson.' Similar to the hyphen issue is the religions issue in jected into the campaign. The anti-Catholic papers and A. P. A. organs like the Menace" and "Yellow Jacket" have for months assailed the president because his private secretary. Mr. Tuiimltv. happened to be a Catholic in religion. The abuse has been unremitting and constant and it was declared that Rome ruled the administration. 'During this period the Catholic press has also lied) as sailing the president because war was not declared upon iwi-Aicu i.o avenge tne loss oi ciiiircli property during the revolution, these papers have been full of exaffi-erated outrages none of them concerning American citizens, and tne president nas iieeu severely grilled. Some months ago Judge Jlunly at Portland presided at a meeting of Catholics, which passed resolutions censur ing the administration. Francis Kelly, the noted Catholic educator, has toured the country, condemning Mr. AVilson. J he National Catholic Turn Verein last mouth denounced the president openly. , Nothing has becli lacking in the campaitrn of both Catholic and anti-Catholic bigots to stir up religious fan aticism and hatred against the president which is proof that the president has followed American ideals of relig ious Irccdiim.
