Europe's aim in life seems to death. be The Republicans look upon it as a 'campain." The Rumanians' plight at present seems to be flight. Eating is an awfully expensive hab it, though an awfully delicious one. The more cotton rides a high horse the more farmers can have automobiles. You can't always tell.

We say he probably is of jsucn consoling opinion, as it may be that Mr. Hughes is really fooling him self. But his speecnes in New York last night were merely a collection of words, expressing In a vague way something that every citizen in the United States would subscribe to so far as public utterance is concerned. Therefore, Mr. Hughes is no further along than before and the people of this country are no more enlighten ed. The Republican nominee declares that he stands for pure Americanism, and is against intrigues and any Am erican who would put another coun try ahead of his own. Yet, there is nothing enlightening in all this. What candidate would dare say otherwise? What candidate would be fool enough to admit the contrary? The most rabid pro-German, the most fervid pro-British, the most ardent support er of the Wilson administration and the most venimous anti-Wilsonite would all agree on this expression. The man guilty of conspiracy; the in dividual contemplating sacrificing the interest of America, even its welfare, would echo the same sentiment. Mr. Roosevelt claims the same brand cf Americanism; only his Americanism would hurl the country into war with Germany and Mexico. "Yet, Mr. Roose velt is by far more candid than Mr. Hughes. However, frankness would not have to step very far to go ahead of Mr. Hughes. "What the people want to know of Mr. Hughes are details; not general ities, and the people are shrewd ' "7" -'"''! V - .

The second libel suit instituted by Mr.- Jeremiah O'Leary against Chair man Vance McCormick, of the Demo crane National Committee, again brings to mind that it was the former citizen who railed about President Wilson not daring to say things to a person's teeth, or words to such ef fect.
