OPPOSES UNCLE JOE.
President Wilson Takes a Hand in
DanviIle District Fight.

washington, Oct 27.-President
Wilson has joined in the fight against
the election to the house of former
Speaker J. G. Cannon of Illinois by
writing a letter endorsing Representa-
tive Frank T. O'Hair of Illinois, who
defeated Mr.. Cannon at the last cleo
ton. Up to the present the president
has kept out of the senatorial fight in
Illinois, where Roger Sullivan is the
Democratic candidate. Mr.. Wilson
practically opened his letter-writing
campaign by sending endorsements to
Democratic candidates in a number Of
states. He has been assured by the
campaign managers that the elections
will result in Democratic majOrities
in the senate and house, but will con-
tinue to work as much as possible for
particular candidates.
In addition to the Democratic SEN
atOrial candidates whom the president
has already publicly endorsed, he is
giving his support to James H. Haw-
ley, in Idaho; s. E. Baldwin in Con-
necticut; George A. Medley, in Kan
sas; w. E. Purcell in North Dakota; ;
Edward johnson, in South Dakota,
and James H. Moyl in Utah.
So many members of the present
cabinet are out campaigning that
the regular cabinet meeting scheduled
for today has been cancelled and it is
probable no other cabinet meetings
will be held until after election, Sec
rotary Garrison left for a campaign
trip through New Jersey, Massachu-
sets and New York.
Secretary Daniels left to speak in
Missouri. Indiana and Michigan.

UP 5000 FEET IN AIR
French Aairman Wings German Taub>
Sending 1t Down to Earth.

Paris, Oct. 27.-From a height Of g.
600 feet a French mechanic in an aero
plane plotted by Louis Paulhan. who
was the first aviator to fly from London
to Manchester, struck down a German
machine after thrilling machine gun
duel.
I'VE were flying from the German
lines toward Amiens, beyond the range
of the enemy's aeroplane guns" the
mechanic writes to the Temps, when
Taube emerged below us from behind
a cloud. Paulhan turned the nose Of
our machine downward. When we
came to his level the German began to
fire but without effect.
1--WE swung within 600 feet Of the
Taube. AS it thereupon took wide
sweep in vol-pique it offered splendid
target. My first broadside inflicted
mortal damage, the Taube falling from
5000 feet like stone. Our petrol tank
however was punctured by a bullet and
we succeeded in planning down behind
our own batteries only by a miracle. ;"
