"l'latiliidinoiiH I'.elmsh," The speech is a platitudinous re hash of negations and blind partisan hate. It " views us with alarm," but it does not "point with pride" to any Republican aehieventuent. There is nothing positively affirmative in it except the last part in which Mr. Hughes positively accepts the nomi nation. There is a long arraignment of the President because of what he has done and tailed to do in Mexico. Hut t!u American people are wait ing anxiously ct to know positively and affirmatively what Mr. Hueh"s will do if he should be elected Presi dent. He might have come out posi tively in favor of immediate interven tion in Mexico. If he had done that, he would have stood at any rate upon firm ground. Nine - tenths of the American people would not have np provid of the locating himself that way, but at least he would have been located.

Apparently the Kaiser did understand it. mcirt Moa-uie His speech is in as many words as were ever used by any candidate for the Presidency, in mere blind espres- ions of antagonism, negation, parti san hate and criticism, and in as few words as anv in the atlirmative as- rt. sertion of a lixed position. I am ah- isolulely sincere in saying that Demo crats tveti who lit; to no itumneu the man and rather admired the letter which he published immediately af ter he was iH.iiiiii.itt d have felt sorry for him o'l aee-uiat 1 his iiuv.pacii v to measure up to the present situa tion, even from the Republican stand point; which is lather a limited one If Roosevelt had been in h's phtce and could not have fmind an issur he would have made one somehow or anyhow. The only question that any Demo cratic stump si.eak. r will have to ask in the campaign is. "What does Mr. Hughes positively propose to do about anything that Mr. Wilson has not al readv done, or which the Democratic party has not put upon its pro gram for future doing? Will he repeal the Bank Reserve Act? Does he propose to revise the tariff upward again, as was done un der Taft's administration, to the In finite disgust of the American people? Does he propose a hostil program of slaughter of thousands of poor, illiterate, icnorant, needy, starving people In Mexico? Does he propose to take up the Lusitania matter again and carry it further? Does he propose to take Mr. Roosevelt's ad vice and send an American army and navy to Europe for the assertion of Belgium's undoubted lights of neu trality? He criticises the taking of men "out of their peaceful pursuits and sending them to the Mexican border!" Does be mean by that iie would re peal the National Guard Act just passed? If he does not mean that, w hat does he mean? l!y my count I have now used or abused my thousand words.

It is rich to hear Mr. Hushes say that "the President has followed, not led." when a whole lot of gray haired Senators at Washington are charg ing him every day with having led too much. The truth Is that he Is about the first President since An drew Jackson died that has In fact led. Even Lincoln followed, as cer tain War Governors learned when they wanted immediate emancipation and various other things. His promise to "aid labor" and his promise that he would "block spoils men" are only the platitudes of poli tics. Everybody says he will before he is elected, and a great many peo ple think they will, and some few like Wilson live up to It. The truth Is that Wilson's Admin istration has been almost without securing the consent of Congress to such measures as he has deemed right. As the work of his first two years recedes into perspective, it re veals immense achievements through sheer concentrated purpose and mas terfulness. There is plenty of room for criticism, and the Republicans will have amp!? lighting ground. Hut the Democrats and Wilson supporters on their part have the decided ad vantage in going before the country on the record of their legislative achievements. The country in 1 IM i S I gave the Republicans a mandate to j ri form the tariff. The result was a shocking failure. The Democrats In their turn received a lik" mandate lit) 1!H2. and the result is i:t bast te ' warded us better from the standpoint iof the average citizwi. The Re publicans talked much about refot m ;ing the banking and currency sys I'tem. and had every opportunity, but left the work undone. The Democrats accomplished the thing forthwith. ; Federal Trade Commission, to deal (with Industrial monopoly and like problems, has not been fully tested, but It promises to be a useful agency; and it would seem only fair to say that, the Democratic record in deal ing with so-called ' big business" is less capricious and arbitrary than that of the Immediately previous Re publican regime. Normal issues have been greatly confused by the extraordinary for eign situations of the past two years. Domestic programs have been to some extent forgotten in the face of hazardous diplomacy and agitation military and naval preparedness. Yet the treatment of domestic issues will have an important bearing upon the votes of large groups and classes of men in November. This being clear ly perceived, and Congress with good working Democratic majorities being still in session. President Wilson naturally desires to make the record of the current year an impressive one. Accordingly, he made one of his informal visits to the President's room In the Senate wing of the Capi tol on July 18, and expressed his de sires in clear terms to the leaders. The other House had Just passed a workmen's compensation bill to be applied to federal employees, and had previously passed, by a large majori ty, a child labor bill modeled on the lines and principles of the famous old Beveridge bill. Mr. Wilson de manded that the Sennte include both of these measures in its immediate program. This Is politics in a high and brilliant sense of the word. It was announced everywhere as Mr. Wilson's bid for the Progressive vote, but nobody can Justly criticise that method of seeking support. From "The Progress of the World," In the American Review of Reviews for August, 1916. Slip a few Prince Albert smokes into your system! You've heard many an earful about the Prince Albert patented process that curs out bite and parch and lets you smoke your fill without a comeback!

Youll feel like your smoke past has been wasted and will be sorry you cannot back up for a fresh start.

A great part of the folks around here would not go to church and help the cause of Christ, not even help pay the preacher. So God has taken their crops and stopped busi ness hereabouts. I tell you It Is a fearful thing to neglect duty and the Uible teaches that wickedness will bring about such dcr-truction and that christians will be chastized for neg lecting duty." Continuing his account of the de struction, the writer nays: "The high water reached four ori five houses around here and the peo-! pie had to get out.
