BUFFALO TIMES
IS ANXIOUS FOR
WILSON TO WIN
San Francisco Call Is Weary
of Dissension In Republican
Party and Urges the Eection
of Wilson.
New York, Sept. 18.?The Buffalo
Evening Times says: "The San Francisco
Call, one of the leading Republican
newspapers of the Pacific Coast,
as well as oae of the most Influential
papers in the country. Is weary of
the dissention, bickering and open
rupture within the Republican party,
and editorially is urging !its readers
to vote for Wood row Wilson.
"The Call has not been the only paper
to switch since the nomination
of the Democratic candidate, but It is
probably the most significant change
of policy of any of them.
"More and more to the beet-think- ' , Jjl
ing people iii the country is the candidacy
of Woodrow Wilson assuming ' ~
that of the ideal. Each day it becomes
more evident that In the New
Jersey executive Democracy has .\??
Tiiede no mictake. From every side
come reports of the espousal of the
Democratic cause on the pert of those
hitherto antagonistic. His achieve- .
meats in public office, his personality,
hiB policies and his' plans are
compelling admiration and attracting
allegiance. Election day will find a
strong percentage of th^ Republican
vote rauged on the Democratic aide.
The Call la cue of many great newspapers
that are patriotically giving
their support to the man who they
know will conduct the affairs of the
nation along lines that will tend O
the greater happiness and comfort at
the people and the honor and glory
of the country." '1

WILBUR H. ROSH THANKS HK
FRIENDS FOR THEIR SUPPORT.
! feel that 1 am due my friends a
[word of thanks for the support given
me before the primaries held September
7.
I Whole I was an abortive candidate
for the office of Register of Deedo.
still 1 feel that the candidate nominated
must be the rightful one, since
he is the preference of the people,
and I want to assure Mr. Rumley that
he will have my solid support in
helping to elect him Register for the
In aspiring to that office I did it
in accordance with the two-term -rs
policy resolution, not because 1 believed
that I (or any other roan in
the county) could fill the offloe more \.
efficiently or more willingly tbnn
does Mr. Rumley, but because I
hoped to maintain the resolution
passed; thereby establishing rotation
in office holding.
Again I wish to thank my friends
for the suppert given me and sbosld
1 come before them agate, and ask
for that, or any other office within . ./^Ja
the gift of the people, I now assuae
them that their support will be as
earnestly solicited ae in the past.
