STAND BY THE PRESIDENT

| October Issue of The Commoner)
At the coming election one-third OF
the senate will be chosen, and the po
| litical complexion of the third thus
chosen will determine whether the
senate will be friendly or unfriendly
to the president.
An entire house of representative
will be chosen, and the political COM
| plexion of that body will determine
whether the president is to be permit
ted to carry out his program of re-
form or have his hands tied by a hos
tile majority. 1t is a critical moment;
the crisis is here.
In 1912 the voters selected Wood
row Wilson president, and gave him
a democratic senate and house to Sec
ond his efforts. He Immediately CALI
ed congress together and has kept
these two bodies in continuous session
ever since, laying before them from
time to time recommendations carry
ing out the promises made during the
campaign. The record which he has
made is without parallel in the polit-
ical annals of our country. At no for
mer period have so many problems of
such size and of so varied a character
confronted a president during two
years. He has met each one without
hesitation and solved them success
fully by the simple process of apply
ing democratic principles to them
His success has been phenomenal
and the approval which he has won
is well nigh universal. His time has
been divided between gigantic domes-
tic questions and titanic international
dificulties-and he has proven equal
to every emergency.
The cabinet which he summoned |
to his council table has been more |
than successful in meeting public ex-
pectations, while the senate and house
have won the confidence and praise
of the democratic party and of large !
percentage of the members of other
parties.
Surely the president will not be ask
ed to pause in his labors; surely the
country will not be guilty of the dan
gerous experiment. of changing the
leadership of the senate and the house.
To what opposition would the nation
entrust the government? To the Roose-
Welt wing of the party? That wing in
cluded more than half of the voting
republicans al the last election. but ;

people? If reactionary republicanism
was a stencil in the nostrils OF the
people in 1912, is the odor less Of

In former articles we have discussed
| the hookworm and the trichina worm,
and the preceding three articles des-
cribed round worms, thread worms and
tape worms. Now we reach a more IA
miliar, not to say intimate parasite,
commonly called the body louise.
Commonly called louse-but doctors
don't always call it by the common
name. Sometimes a doctor is con-
strained to turn a stream of Latin
or Greek upon a delicate matter.
so he calls infestation with lice by
the technical name of pediculosis or
phthiriasis, which saves him from
assault and battery by his patient
To anyone but a family doctor
ii may be no disgrace not to know
pediculosis when one sees it. But
1t is the doctors business to know
all the signs, and to realize that
pediculosis by no means confines it.
self to the poor and needy. All
things come to those who rub ell
bows with the world at large.
To Begin With the Head Louise.
The head louise takes pride in his
prominence in school work. He
goes to the head of nearly every
class some time in the course OF the
term And once he reaches the head
OF the class he sticks there till mother
gets after him with a fine tooth comb.
Even then he fathers a brood of go
Iusty youngsters that mature in a week
and fight against violation of their ter
ritory. The female OF the species
seeks an out-of-the-way spot over the
and deposits her eggs there on
her shafts-the nits.
Next the Body Louise.

Ever since / have been a member OF
ture from this "big navy" lobby, and

ton of its officers to the fact that their
pleas for a larger navy are tainted, ana
will continue to be tainted until they
advocate the government manufacture

Dadmun, the secretary of the league,
in which, among other things, said:
beg to acknowledge receipt OF your
letter of the 18th instant, together with
Enclosures as to why a powerful navy

Assuming that you are in good faith
in this agitation and really desire the

In other words, if the government is
to do all of the manufacturing of NUM-
tons of war, including battleships, the
point can not then be successfully
raised that the agitation is for the bene-
fit of the armor ring, the ammunition
ring. and the shipbuilding trust.
