Both the republican and democratic
national committees are claiming over
|whelming victories for their favorites
lon November 18th. The truth is that no
one can make a safe guess at this stage
lof the game, although the drift of senti-
ntent seems to be setting strongly to-
ward Hughes. Anyhow, someone is go
ling to be previously disappointed when
1.-THE votes are counted.

Mr.. Wilson is president of the United
States by accident Had there not been

per cent of the progressives have re-
turned to the republican fold, and

w. ]. Hoskyn, the democratic candi-
date for county engineer, has made a
pretty thorough canvass of the county
during the campaign and has met with
much encouragement. AS local man
and mighty good fellow personally. it
ia but natural to expect that he will get
a handsome Endorsement from his
home people. So far as capability is
concerned Mr.. Hoskyn is eminently
qualified for the office, and should he
win out next Tuesday he would make
a creditable record in that office.

Caranza's family is over the line in
the United States seeking the protec-
ton Of this country. OF course that pro-
lection will be granted. But how about
the hundreds of Americans in Mexico,
murdered and robbed, who secured no
protection from Caranza. II the present
administration is retained Americans
will continue to be murdered on both
sides of the border and no firm steps
taken to prevent or avenge those muir
