no attention to candidates' promises, hut draw our con
chisons from their deeds. Actions speak louder than
words.
Hughes as governor of New York spent most of his time
in hitler (iiarrels with republican legislators and accom
plished practically nothing.
Wilson triumphantly proved his capacity for leader
ship by teamwork with his partv in congress.
Jlughes, with legalistic niind, betraved the man of nar
row outlook, referred eonstantlv to musty law books for
old precedents.
llson, with broad vision,
Hughes, as governor, allowed hardly any measure of
benefit to the people to become a law.
Wilson, as president, not only approved such measures,
but earnestly urged and successfully secured their pas
sage.
In his vetoes, Hughes usually acknowledged the virtue
ol tlie lulls, hut . And then
bell, came his favorito reactionary words "unreasonable"
and "confiscatory."
It was thus he vetoed the
and the commercial travelers,
a two-cent passenger railroad
enjoyed in many less populated states where nevertheless
the roads are making good money ,
He vetoed the bill giving women teachers of Xew Yorl
City equal pay with the men when they do 1 lie same work
(And this from the man who
lief in votes for women.)
He vetoed the bill giving
congested .New ork a live-cent tare to the seashore at
Coney Island, although other companies give a longer ride
in New York for that price ami find it richly profitable.
lit? vetoed the full crew bill, which was backed by the
labor organizations and especially by the railroad men
although he now says he is strong for the laboring man.
Wilson's opponents sneer at his doctrine of the new
freedom, but he put it into actual successful practice.
Hi! gave tho country a new .freedom from panics, and
ll.e small business man a new freedom in the money mar
ket, through the great federal reserve law, which has put
it out of the power of a small
to create panics at will or dictate distribution of loans.

In the field ol international politics he gave ns freedom

time upholding the rights of neutrals and the sanctity of

lie applied the doctrine of the new freedom to Mexico
and gave that unhappy country a chance to work out its
own savation.
In every instance he was guided by the desire to secure
the greatest good of the greatest number, to put the man
above the dollar, to exalt right above might.
Wilson has a record of constructive deeds

Wilson conies before the nation with a ripe wisdom
garnered by actual experience in solving great domestic
problems and meeting grave international crises.
Hughes, after quiet years on the supremo court bench,
reveals himself out of touch wii h social service.
Fresh from bailies for the people, Wilson looks confi
dently to the future.
Summoned from his lawbooks. Hughes blinks and looks
dubiously to the past.

To illustrate the unfairness and the lack of sincerity ol
the campaign waged against President Wilson, we quote
from the Roosevelt statement of 191 ti concerning the in
vasion of Relgium. and in a parallel column Roosevelt's
statement concerning this subject, made in the Outlook.
September 12... 1914:

"1'nder his t Wilson's) lead Ainerl-
ea eould and should have put itself
at tlie head of all the neutral nations

the war should be conducted in aecor-
dance with the usage of civilized na-
ions, that international law should he

and non-combatants should he re-
sperted.
"If this spirit had animated our an- paiihle with full acunowieoKement oi

.One month after President Wilson had declared this
country neutral, as every sane man and woman in the na
tion wanted him to do. Roosevelt wrote in unqualified ap
proval of the policy.
Two years later the same Roosevelt digs the last words
from the dregs of his vocabulary of vituperation and hurls
them at the president in an attempt to defeat him for re
election because he sacrificed the national honor by not
saying Relgiuin.

COMMUNICATION.
To the Editor:
After listening to the speakers of
the evening Sunday night, at the
N'atatoriuin, I believe a statement is
due the people of Medford and espec
ially the church people. In behalf of
the last amendment considered, thul
to abolish the present Sunday law,
ilie speaker made some very bold as
sertions. One of which was: "If tlie
present amendment carries abolishing
the present Sunday law, it would
mean the ruin of our churches."
I do not believe and may God for
bid that our churches are so far
backsliding and separated from the
divine source of power found in the
Gospel of Christ thut the withholding
or removal of the arm of civil law in
religious matters (the speaker's re
marks clearly showing this to he a re
ligious law) would mean tho ruin of
our churches.
Never has, or will, the church of
Christ appeal to civil power for help
to promote to gospel as long ns they
are partakers of tho divine power of
Jesus Christ.
The speaker further asserted that
as though tho present Sunday law
was. not as we might have it, if re
tained, amendments could be made,
but if abolished it would take 25 years
to again get it on our statute books as
it is today. The speaker failed to
show what the present Sunday law is,
what its requirements are, what its
exemptions are and what its penalties
nre, but merely emphasized its re
tention. I trust that every citizen will thor
oughly investigate the text of this
law, which is wholly contrary to the
constitution of tho United States and
the declaration of independence, and
which has no right upon our statute
hooks. If each voter who is a lover
of the liberty that prompted our fore
fathers to sign the declaration of in
dependence, granting to every indi
vidual the right to worship Rod ac
cording to the dictation of their con
science, and tlie blessed right of
choice, will give this candid thought,
and if those in the calling of the
ministry will go down on their knees
and intercede for power from the di
vine throne of God, instead of appeal
ing tho civil throne of Ceaser, I nin
sure you will vole with me Novem
ber 7, 312 (X) Yes, thus granting to
all that God-given right of liberty of
choice. J. n. Ml'IlAN.
