And his replies, instead of eluariiif; things up for the votci-s, add to the obscurity of the situation. At Louisville, it wilr he remembered, he was asked what he would have done if he had been president when the Ger mans torpdoed the Lusitania. His reply was that had he been president the Germans would not have torpedoed the Lusitania. At Sioux City, more recently, he was asked: "Will you uvgo the repeal of the Adamson eifdit-hour law for rail way men, if you are elected president .'" To which he made this reply: ''Yon cannot repeal a surrender." The partisan republican newspapers are coinniendhitf their candidate very Jiighly for his "frankness with the people," etc. Taking the Hughes reply at Sioux City for a text, the Chicago Herald winds up an enthusiastic half-column editorial with the comment: "It is good for candidates to go on record on matters of vital importance." It certainly is; that's exactly what the voters have a right to expect. And now if the "hundred percent candidate" will tell us what he would have done about the Lusitania and whether he will urge the repeal of the eight-hour law, we shall be glad to publish the answers for t lie enlightenment of our readers. Certainly neither Candidate Hughes nor his newspaper supporters have so low an opinion of the intelligence of the voters a.s to expect that such slippery evasions will be ac cepted as answers. AS TO G-R0VER CLEVELAND TPIIOSK of us whose middle life is abreast of the present A day can well remember the abuse that was poured upon the head of G rover Cleveland by the same men who are now resorting to the same methods to defeat President Wilson. And it seems to ns the rankest hypocrisy that the Hughes spellbinders, particularly Roosevelt, are now re ferring to G rover Cleveland's "strength, courage and firmness" in comparison' with what they are pleased to call Wilson's "weakness, cowardice and vacillation." "Oh, for an hour of (J rover Cleveland!" cries Roose velt. "There was strength for you, and courage and firm ness." ' lint Roosevelt does not say to what cud the "strength, courage and firmness" of G rover Cleveland were directed. The fact is that they were exerted to guide the nation into ways of peace against the influences that would have dragged the country into war then, as they would now. Let us read a few words from Andrews' history. "The United States in Our Own Time," published in 190:!: "Willi hln party and the people nt Inrno Mr. Cleveland's foreign policy wiih Tor it Ions time even le.8 po. Hilar than his procedure touching tariff and finance. His indication of an extradition treaty with Russia was violently crlticlzi;-.d, as also his refusal to i :ess Turkey for the human treatment or Christians in that empire. When, wholly without warrant, a Spanish RUn boat fired on the Alllanca, a L'nltod States passenger steamer off Cuba, many thought our government indecently dilatory in demanding roparatiou. When (treat Britain occupied Corinto in Nicaragua, to compel the payment of J75 HU0 In reparation for Nicaragua's expulsion of Consul Hatch, an influential paper bitterly assailed the president for permitting thla affront to the Mon roe doctrine. Not a few felt lh.it we meanly deferred to Orent Rritain. ami even to Nicaragua. These compla'nts w-ore not wholly partisan: democrats Joined republicans In viewing Mr. Cleveland's foreign policy as spiritless and 'uii'American.' The severest icpvi.bation met his dealings in Hawaii." And it should not be forgotten that except in the case of Hawaii. G rover Cleveland's decisions finally stood and were accepted by all. T , ... HIS PEN OR YOUR LIFE ONI' of the best editorial indorsements of the campaign is that given by the Detroit News, an independent newspaper, to President Wilson in the following: "A great deal of fun has been had over note-writing, although we used to be fond of iiioting, "The pen is mightier than the sword."' Rut President Wilson has had just two tools he could use his pen with his brain behind it, or your life. "That is all lie had. lie could send notes, or he could send human lives, lie had to use cither the tools of dip lomacy, or he had to use American fathers and brothers anil sons of whom you likely would have been one. ' "Now, aside from part isan preferences, which would you prefer a president to risk first his pen. or your life.' President Wilson tried his pen first. If the pen had failed through any weakness in its handling, he would have had to fall back on t he bodies of American men, offered as sac rifices on the altar of battle. " l!ut the notes did not fail, because they were not weak tiolis. and they were not written by a weak man." THE GENTLE COLONEL GLOOMY OUTLOOK iHANG OUT FLAGS FOR HUGHES SEEN FOR OBSERVANCE IN N.Y.HERALD POLL The New York Herald pull ol lu-t Sunday indicates t lint Yi-,..n will sweep the eountrv on November 7. The Herald MiVs: "Wuli election day ju-l nltecn du.v oil', (lie presidential tide i- drifting towards Wilnou. Mr. Hughes lut made piins in state which arc- ordi narily republican, but which thU year are not. onlv in doubt, but likely to decide the election. Tim stales in which Mr. Hughes, in tin; Herald's sJrnw vote, has made gains, are New Yolk (np-stiite), Connecticut, Idaho, Ma.ssucliusetts, Montana, South l)a kotn and Xciv Jersey. The slates where the president has made vains are Illinois, Indiana. Maryland, Mich igan, Minnesota, Nebraska, Ohio. Washington, West Virginia and Wis consin. Mr. Unhcs lias been lo-ing. He is much weaker than his party. I'rcsidciit Wilson 1ms been gaiuiug. lie is much stronger than his party." Wilson is given 208 votes as n-sur-cd. Hughes 147, and 1 70 are classed as iloubirul. The Hughes list include California, lown, Kansas, Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota. Montana. Nevada. New Hampshire. North Da kota, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South, llakola, Utah, Vermont and Wyoming, muny of which are claimed by the deiiiuerals. The doubtful states are listed as C'oimrclicul. Delaware, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan. Ne braska, New Jersev New York. Ohio, lihode Island, Washington, all ol' which are claimed by the liemociats. The llcnild admils llial Wilson can win without New York, but that Hughes cannot. Considering the l'act lhal the pull is taken by newspapers snppoiting Hughes, like I he Cortland Oregonian. Los Angeles Times, etc., and that the Herald is supporting Hughes also, the outlook, us the Herald says, "is gloomv Tor Hughes."
