There is no cause for Democrats and Progressives lovers of peace and opponents of the horrors and crimes of war to feel other than the greatest confidence in the re-election of President Wilson. Friends of his Republican opponent have been making vocifer ous endeavor to impress the voters of the country with a fictional strength for Mr. Hughes' candidacy. President Wilson has the Democrats of the country enthusias tically behind him. W',VJ. ,; lie has the friends of preparedness and peace. " l-p lie has every Progressive who really holds policies above preju dice and deeds above vague promises. lie has the women voters of the states where suffrage is an ac complished fact, who hold their country first in their esteem and who are able to see more in the support President Wilson has already given suffrage, than in the opportunist espousal of their cause by a candidate who before never has shown by his acts even, the most con descending sympathy. There are ' but a meagre few states where Mr. Ilughes' cham pions can give him more than a doubtful chance of securing electoral votes. . . No issue has been joined by the speeches of the Republican can didate which is of sufficient worth to merit serious consideration. Behind Mr. Wilson there is a long record of deeds done and legislation enacted which puts him far up abreast of the times and popular demands. For President Wilson to.be defeated there must develop 6uch a reaction from present sentiment as would be startling indeed. - . ITo has the record of achievement. JTo has the shibboleth of peace. ITo has the accomplishment of preparedness ITe has a Congress which has stood nobly behind his policies and has writ! en laws that the great masses of voters will surely indorse. ITe has been direct, diligent, assertive and dominant. Xo public man ever cherished loftier "ideals or did more to win to them the public approval. Beat him? " ' , ' " v". ' r' n i i . . i ..

Beat him, with the Government's credit the talk of the world? Beat him, with labor employed, wages good and happiness the outward semblance of nation-wide contentment? Beat him, with the vaults of the banks of the country bulging and legislation already enacted which is the guarantee of low in terest rates ? Beat him, with his neutrality achievements, which have made us the. one nation secure from the criminal effusion of the red blood of the sons and fathers of the land? . Beat him, when the law is highly respected, when the national honor is respected, when the flag lias been made the signal at once of preparedness and peace, and our people home-loving, God-fearing and ready for the higher achievements in the future than were ever chronicled m the past?
