Is il possible to imagine, for instance, lhat the stock holders of a concern however large or small would dis charge a manager who for four years had conducted it affairs successfully, and replace him with a man whos' only recommendation was his that he could run the business bet.ter ! I his seems to be a fair statement of the presidential situation. Assuming that four years inexperienced, so far as the Hughes is today, the experience he has gained in the offiet is of t reiiiendoiis value to t he count rv at this critical period As a matter of fact, this assunipl ion is unfair to Wilson, as lie had devoted many years to studying and writing about national anil international questions, and at the time of his election probably was better iiailfied for the presi deiicv than anv man in the couutrv who had not actuallv held the office'. There is nothing in the career of Hughes as a lawyer, governor ol .New i oru or that marks him as a man italificd either by study, experi ence or temperament for the character of statesmanship which is called for at this time in conducting the affairs of the nat ion. The character of the campaign which Hughes is mak ing is proof of the provincialism and pettiness of his mind. If he were trying to be elected constable he could not conduct his campaign upon 'a lower plane. The great difference between Candidate Hughes and President Wilson seems lo be that Hughes is thinking about little things in a narrow wav while the president is thinking about big things in a broad way. It is 1 he difference between the politician and the statesman. ( 'ertainly there has not been a t ime in this country since the civil war that a statesman was more needed at the head of things and a polit ician less needed than now. Certainly this is not the time to experiment; to ex change a proven man for an enigma. It is not a coniinon-sense proposition and the people of this country are long on common sense. DOMESTIC W II KX Charles I). Kliot, said that President done more for the country than the republican party had accomplished in five times as many years, he uttered a truth that cannot be denied by any one who studies the record of the past three years with an open mind. That Hughes realizes the impossibility of making any kind of a case against the president on domestic issues is clearly shown by his failure to attempt; it. The federal reserve law, the child labor lawt the rural credits law, the law creating the federal trade relations commission, the law creating a tariff commission, are but a few of the most important of scores of progressive enact ments by which congress, under the leadership of the pres ident, has taken the government away from the privileged few and given it back to the people. It is great ly to be regretted that the campaign could not have been fought out on those issues of purely national concern, which, broadly speaking, have to do with the iiestioii whether the I'nited States is to be governed in the interest of llie few, who have more than they need, or the many, who haven't as much as they 'need. While it is not likely thai the splendid record of the Wilson administration in progressive legislation will be overlooked by the great mass of voters in whose interest these laws have been passed, it would have been a tremen dously wholesome thing if the verdict for the president, on November 7 could have been returned on this issue alone. Such a verdict would have eliminated from national pol itics the sinister influence of standpatters of the Penrose. Suiiiot, ( 'raue type. SMOKING HIM OUT IT KCK I, Klt'S in the last days of the campaign are I'orc- ing ( 'amliilate Hughes lo declare himself upon inter national issues, which he has hitherto dodged with general ities and oracular nothings, lie h.-ts declared that lie would have broken off diplomat ic relations with Ceruiany. when the Lusii.mia was sunk, which would have been equivalent to ;i declarat ion of war against icrmany. Today Mr. Hughes declares that he would have opposed an embargo upon munitions ;ni,l resolution warning Americans not lo travel upon .ships owned by nations of war. Yet the republic-ins in congress favM-cil both, and it was ouh President Wilson's firmness t hat prevented the passage of both embargo and warning resolutions. Colonel 1,'oosevt ll has said t hat he would have declared war upon ieriiiany over I he iolai ion of Kclgiaii neiitral ily. I le has also said I hat when the laisitaniii was sunk hi; would have violated international law by seizing all in terned (ieinian ships in American ports -which would iiae ln' ii equivalent to .1 declaration of war. And Mr. Hughes say.- that he and the Colonel are "in complete ac cord." In all probability, were Hughes president, we should be .11 war willi ( It i-niany. as well as Mexico -anti yet thetier-maii-American Alliance is supporting Hughes because ihcv think President Wilson has inn been lair to ( iennauv ! The best proof of the president's true neutrality is that the s mpathiers of allies and the s mpathizers of 'the cen tral empires are both supporting Hughes, because the pres ident favored licit her.
