Edison for Wilson.

There is no American in whose
integrity of opinion, strong
sense and good Judgment the
people ofthe United sta es have
more confidence than Thomos
A. Ellison!
Mr.. Edison publicly announc-
es his his support of President
Wilson. Brieftd, his reasons
are:
Faced with a succession of
tremendous problems, any one
of which decided tho wrong
way would have been disastrous,
Wileon has not got us into
trouble nor is lie likely to.
He has given lis peace with
honor. Talk about the Bnited
States being despised is non
sense, Back of oul neutrality
are international law, the rights
of humanity and the future of
civilization,
With reference to Mexico the
president has acted wisely,
justly and courageously.
With reference to prepared
ness he ehanged aud 1t was the
proper thing to dd,
His attitude on the tariff
shows equal openess of mind:
A tariff commission will take
the tariff out of politics.
"They say that he has blund-
cred. Perhaps he has. But l
notice that he usually hlunders
forward"
III the railroad controversy
the President acted with his u.s.
ual courage and sanity.
Hughes hindsigLt, we learn
from his speeches, is highly de-
veloped, but as to his foresight
we are not equally well inform
ed,
This is no time for Republi-
canism or Democracy. Real
Americans must get down to
fundamental principales.
1t is not now logical or sensi
bic to change to an inexperienc-
ed and uutried man.

the opening production in this city of william
Fox's spectacular screen fantasy, "A Daughter of

the screen play last night. "A Daughter OF the
Gods is spectacular, coorful, big-bg is the proper
descriptive term-and dazzles by the variety and
exotic beauty Of its scenes. Miss Kellermann never
appeared to better advantage before the camera
than in "A Daughter of the Gods" Throughout she
is the very embodiment of grace. and the aquatic
scenes, which are in the majority she thrills and
delights with her exhibitions Of diving and swim
