WILSON WINNER IN
1916, SAYS ASHURST
ARIZONA SENATOR SAYS PEOPLE
LIKE PRESIDENTS HANDLING
OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS.

DETROIT.-At the end of a trip
which has covered IA 900 miles, Sem
ator Henry F. Ashurst of Arizona
started the other day to make polit-
ical canvass of Michigan with the
purpose, he said, of reporting back to
the White House the result of his
labors.
That it is "Wilson in 1915 with
out opposition" is the belief of the
Arizona politician. The results of his
trip convince him, he declares, that
the president will be unanimously re-
nominated, that the tariff is not to
be an issue and the currency a minor
one. The position of the United
States due to the European war and
the troubles in Mexico have made the
president the logical leader, says the
senator.
The senator has talked to cowboys
and bankers, lumberjacks and pro-
fessional men, and, after carefully
weighing and digesting the sentiment
he has found, he declares that Wilson
is today 100000 votes stronger
than his party. He says that If there
were a presidential election today
Wilson would carry New York ham
Oily and would come closer to sweep
ing Michigan than any living Demo-
crat.
Woodrow Wilson will run for
president" Senator Ashurst said,
because he will have no other
choice. l measure my words when I
say that he will be reelected presi-
dent without any trouble. The
people will have no other leader. It
was fortunate for both Woodrow
Wilson and for the United States that
he became president at such time
fortunate for him because the times
made him the one great outstanding
figure in civilization today, and fOrtu-
nate for the United States because he
is the one calm, resourceful leader
whose peculiar abilities enabled him
to steer the country safely through
the international difficulties that
have beset it.
From the standpoint of the great
mass of people there is but one ques-
ton, and that relates to the war in
Europe. The people know they have
the one man to lead them safely
through. Woodrow Wilson is that
man.
Republican congressman are in
bad way. They cuss Wilson openly
for the sake of their constituency
and they praise him privately, be-
cause there is no other thing for
them to do"

BOOST A LITTLE BIT.

Anyone almost be knocker;
It's easier to tear down than to build,
SO why not try your best to be a booster?

You can't expect that things will always suit you:
In melancholy judgment then you sit?
No. Better far to help along little
Better far to boost little bit
1t never pays to join the anvil chorus
Or spread unkind reports about your town.
Many there are to hamper and retard it,
Who do their level best to it down
What if it has it's little failings?
1t has it's good points, also--hasn't it?
So why not to the wheel adjust your shoulder;
Why not get out and boost a little bit?
churlish dog may bay the moon in anguish;
The frog must croak. for nature willed it so;
The mules We're placed earth to do the kicking

Adopt this a motto BE Booster"
And then get out and boost little bit

kindliest feelings towards the man
