journed, voting if not adjourned.
Tiie life of tbe coua'.ry is in the
voting of its citizens. . ^
He voted because it was a
duty he owed his country. That
in tbe midst of his cares be took
the time to go so far indicates
just bow important he thinks it
is that every good citizen should
vote. Is the cooduct of the war
is not' sufficient to keep the
President from going one'hund
red mites to vote, on what
grounds can the reader excuse
himself this coming November.
Rarely has tbe President left
Washington since our country
entered the war.
But he felt Tfcesdajnust to
cast one vote
No one ha* eritized him fo# it.
No one has accused hi? of do
ing a trivial thing. No one ever
suspected him of doing vain or
trivial things. g
The peojpte of this country
understand They know that
the President knows that the
enemies of this country ? the
secret friends of Germany? have
yet the chance to strike otnr
country a deadly blow in -No
vember. Tbey canfparalize the
Admistralion. Tbey can fetter
the President's cot duct of the
war. They can tie his bandjp.
They can destroy bis power.
They can elect Senators a w$
Congressmen who are no^ in
sympothy with him. 1 hey can
give *id and comfort to the
Kaiser, as it could not be given
in any ether way. Tbey know
that good citizens must vote this
year if they never voted before.
They know that President Wil
son was "on his job" "when be
journeyed all tbe way to Price
ton, New Jersey, just to cast one
vote last Tuesday. ' .
The November election is the
first election since wc entered
the war. - The voters will paasj

portance to the State and Natioo
