ARRESTED: CEl OUR FOREIGN FORTUNE HUNTERS THE supporters of Mr. Hughes are making much noise over tlie protection oi our citizens who betake them selves from this country in pursuit of fickle fortune. It is a theory that appeals to our sentiments and is a likely sub ject for noisy patriots. There are two sides to the question. To illustrate, take the example of two Americans, Jones and Brown. Uoth were born, say in the state of Oregon. Jones remains in Oregon. He builds a home and reai-s a family. He devotes his ability and energy to building up an American com-1 uiunity and raising and educating a family of American citizens. Brown has the itch for sudden wealth and leaves .the civilized and intelligent people of Oregon and goes, say to Central America, where the people are untutored and ig norant and oppressed. By a small expenditure he has secured a large tract of land and he improves it with poorly paid peon labor. He basks in while ignorant peons, toil lor a mere pittance. . The time comes when the peons, realizing their lands are. being taken by foreigners and that they are slaves to the land owners, revolt and attack Brown's hacienda and dest roy his crops. .Brown appeals to lus government to protect him, winch seizes Jones, puts a rifle in and sends him down to attack the revolutionists who are worrying J.rown. Th(! question arising in the mind of a sober patriot is this: Is it just to compel Jones, who is an American resi dent as well as a citizen, ,who builder and helper, to leave his home and tanuly to help Brown, who preferred another country and its opportun ities. War with Mexico would simply mean that the people who make this country what it is would he compelled to lay down their lives in defense of adventurers who weut abroad to "get rich quick." Hut the political snysters, plutocratic thieves and hom icidal imbeciles try to cover it up bv tragic shouting about upholding the flag and avenging insults to the honor of the nation. In the last analysis the fighters will declare that develop foreign countries, are building up our foreign trade, and we must have increased foreign trade to main tain prosperity. So it is not protection to our infant indus tries, after all, that makes prosperity, but foreign trade that we may be called upon to sacrifice thousands upon thousands of brave young men to secure. lii other words, the plutocracy of this country stands ready to sacrifice the lives of change for dollais gleaned from foreign trade. This is the best they can hold out to us as the culmination of fifty years of nearly unbroken republican administration. THE LOVE 17 10 1 IT years ago Colonel judicial candidate, as the proper man lor president, of the United States. Mr. Taft "was acceptable to the inter ests and proved himself the apostle of reaction. Then he was repudiated bv the people and Mr. Roosevelt. Today Colonel Roosevelt judicial candidate, as the proper man lor president. Mr ungues is acceptaine ro tne shows that he is also an apostle oi reaction. Last night a love feast was held at New York, and Roosevelt, Taft and Hughes kissed and made up. Why should they not'? All are acceptable to the interests and working lor reaction, Roosevelt having dropped his mask of fake progressiveness. Roosevelt admitted that lecting his' judicial candidate indications that his selection in l!)l( is also a mistake. The people followed Roosevelt 's advice once and were "stung." There is, however, little likelihood of their fol lowing it a second time to be stung again. Hughes suits 1 aft. Hughes suits Roosevelt. Hughes suits the bosses. Hughes suits Wall street. Hughes suits privilege seekers. Hughes Hughes suils the Inpliens people. Henry rord says:"lnia republican, but 1 in lor Wilson because lie is onto the interests the unseen hands that seek to control government and is holding them off." And the people arc for Wilson for the same reason. The New York Herald is pre-election polls have lor vears indicated the trend of pub lie opinion. Its first poll, printed Sunday, gives New York, Connecticut. New Jersey, Massachusetts, West Yirginia. Kentucky, Missouri. Oklahoma and Arizona to Wilson. which, with the conceded democratic states, give him more than enough to elect.

But motorists continue to buy that make of tire only because the first tires have made good have given satisfactory mileage and service. Motorists bought United States Tires so consist-' ently that, during the first seven and one-half months of this year, we sold and delivered more tires than during the entire twelve months of last year. And motorists are continuing to buy United States Tires at the same phenomenal rate. If straws show which way the wind blows, such phenomenal sales increases certainly show where the best tire service comes from.
