"Comrade" Editors Effort to
Distort Democratic Position
on Pensions Rebuked.
CIRCULAR TO G. A. R. POSTS
Sought "Mean" and "Harsh" Elk
pressIons BY Wilson Supporters,
but Finds Facts the Reverse.

Ignoring the fact that the Democrat
ic house passed the most liberal pen
sion bill in the history Of the United
States and that it was the Republican
senate that reduced the appropriation
the editor Of the National Tribune OF
Washington has appealed to grand
army posts all over the country to sup
ply campaign material for use against
the Democratic party.
Colonel (Sergeant) John McElroy, the
editor, has not met always with the
cooperation he desired. This is evi-
denced by the fact hat indignant
grand army men have forwarded his
circula letters to Democratic national
headquarters in New York with their
protests against the playing of such
politics within the old soldiers organ
ization.
Quest for "Mean" Things.
Editor McElroy's appeal was sent
out, mimeC graphed, on the letterhead
of the National Tribune, with his own
name at the top. The letter read:
Sept. Is. 1912,
ComraoS-" we are anxious to get the ex-
preston OF editorials on pensions from
the papers supporting Wilson in your

The cause OF womAn's enfranchise-

WHY NOT ELECT
WOODROW WILSON
Chicago Post, influential Repub.
Iican Paper, Asks Its Read
ers a Leading Question.
FRAUDS OF PRESENT REGIME
Says tho Tariff Has Been Too High
for a Generation, and Must Be Low
cred.

The Chicago Post, an influential In
dependent Republican newspaper, pro
pounds this question to Republicans:
why not Wilson?
This question 10 addressed particu-
larly to Republicans.
Governor Wilson suits the Demo
Gratis down to the ground. suits all
Democrats who are worthy to be call
ed Democrats. But in an emergency
like this, why should not Wilson suit
a large part of the Republicans az
we'll?
Why not Wilson?
Governor Wilson ID . thoroughbred
American gentleman, not only in the
accident Of birth, but in his every
ideal. impulse and principle. That
should be the arst requirement OF ~
cry presidential candidate.
Governor Wilson n Q tried and
trustworthy executive. His brilliant
record a governor OF New Jersey
proves that.
Governor Wilson II n sminent1y
sane and sensible man. He IL an emf
nently honorable man. He has digni-
fed every place which he has held.
He has performed . splendid public
service by lifting the present cam
paign out Of the riot of mudshng1ng
with which Roosevelt began it.
In every personal characteristic,
Governor Wilson IL equipped to be
any mans president, without regard
to whether that man h = Democrat or
a Republican. Whist, thsn, OF his po-
litical qualifications!
Governor Wilson II, and always has
been, a sensible Democrat, but he 10
not and new has BEEN q silly, violent
partisan.
Governor Wilsoa stands for honesty
and efficiency in federal administra-
ton. So do all ave those who profit
by graft and in~efa cheney.
Governor Wilson stands for the
curbing Of trusts and monopohes. So
do all, except monopolists and their de-
fender, Theodore Roosevelt.
Governor Wilson stands for a
prompt n steady downward revision
of the tariff. SO do nine-tenths OF the
people of the United States.
Governor Wilson believes In a more
radical tariff revision than do a large
number of the rank and nle of Re-
publicans. But Governor Wilson il
the only candidate who II elected will
permit the revision Of the tariff at all.
The tariff has been to high for a
generation. Is It not better to take a
chance at getting 1t too low-according
to Republican Standardization to let
the known frauds of the present re-
gtme continue for another four years
to rob the public?
why not Wilson? He will give an
honest. . dignifed, a capable admins
tration. He will respect the constitu-
ton. He will see hat the tariff IL re-
vised downward. He will curb trusts.
He will serve the people.

The Progressive party had it's first
opportunity to show Its loyalty to the
woman suffrage plank in it's platform
when the vote was taken in Ohio on a
nsw constitution. Forty-two amend
ments were on the ballot. and all were
adopted except the one for m
suffrage!
Ohio IL one of the banner" Progress

to secure its electoral vote. In order
TO do this a plurality OF the electors
must be P~rogressives. and they could
therefore have easily carried the suf-
frage amendment II all the others had
voted against It, ~ the vote on the
constitution was very light. only =
