Mr., Roosevelt quotes SECRETARY Lans-
ing's recent note to Carranza, as fol-
lows: "In these attacks on American
territory CarranEista adherents, and
even Carranzista soldiers, took part in
the looting, burning and killing. Not
only were these murders characterized
by ruthless brutality, but uncivilized
acts of munition were perpetrated.'
Mr. Roosevelt also called attention to
Mr.. Wilson's Intervention by force in
Hayti, saying, But there was a diff
ference in the two cases; and to Mr.
Wilson 1t was vital difference. Hayti
was weaker than Mexico. No one was
afraid of Hayti."

Mr.. Roosevelt In Maine-C olone
Roosevelt's first speech for Mr.
Hughes, delivered at Lewiston, Me-
completely demolished the Wilson
slogan on which the Democrats place
their chief reliance. "He has kept us
Cut of war" With that charity and
picturesQueness of expression which
are peculiarly his own, Mr.. Roosevelt
proved to delighted audience that the
slogan contains falsehood; that Mr..
Wilson has not kept us out of war.
that he has engaged in a number OF
petty wars, and that greater number
of Americans have been killed by Mex
leans than were killed by Spaniards
during the entire Spanish War, and,
as Mr., Roosevelt adds, when the war
with Spain was through ii was
through, but Peace continues to rage
as furiously as ever in Mexico" Says
Mr.. Roosevelt, further, Mr.. McKinley's
war with Spain cost less bloodshed

POPULAR HUGHES CAMPAIGN
FUND

The plan adopted by Cornelius NJ.
Bliss, Jr., treasurer OF the Republican
National Committee, to raise money
for the campaign and Increase the
force of active workers for the cleo
ton Of Charles Evans Hughes to the
presidency has peculiar merit Mr..
Bliss asks every one who favors the
election Of Mr.. Hughes and wishes him
10 have the support Of a Republican
Senate and House to contribute $40
and become a sustaining member OF
the Republican party. All such will
receive a certificate Of membership.
That the money will prove a good In
vestment is patent. 1t will help to Sc
cure for the country a more efficient
administration OF our national affairs,
which is necessary II the prosperity
and influence Of the nation Is to con
tnue.
There are at least s,000,OO0 Repub-
licans, but how many of them have
any evidence they are, beyond the con-
seriousness that they have voted or
will vote the Republican ticketi The
work is done by few and the money
ordinarily is provided by fewer. Mr..
Bliss plan offers cure for that con-
dillon. Help the cause and get a GER
tificate Of membership that will estab-
llsh your party affillatlon. 1t is not
expected that all the 100000 Repub-
llcans will give so each, but If a
gOOdly number who can afford 1t do
so there will be great many more
able to give much more than $40 next
time because Republican success will
mean to the country In fullest measure
preparedness, protection and perma-
nent prosperity.

That Tariff COmmlssiOn-The in
sincerity of the Democrats in creating
a tariff commission has already been
