THE ISSUE OF CHARACTER.

New York Sun, Oct. 25.-Half a
dozen correspondents have asked The
Sun to add to the numerous catalogues
already compiled and now current, it's
own special list of the ten, twenty, or
fifty best reasons for voting Wilson
out and Hughes in on November z.
We suppose we could construct a
list of five hundred such reasons, for
the stock Of raw material is practical
ly inexhaustible.
This is. scarcely necessary. We
shall content ourselves with inviting;
renewed attention to the one supreme
sufficient, all comprehensive issue of
the election. r
Its outlines are coming into sharper
focus every day as the time for the
ballot approaches. The supreme is
sue is the plain and intelligible ques-
ton involved in the marked contrast
between two personalities.
1. Intelligence without character;
2. Character with intelligence.
No. One is Woodrow Wilson.
Number Two is Charles Evans
Hughes.
Every voter knows or ought to know
the difference.
We are using the word character in
the broad sense recognized by the lex
icographeres.

HOME COMING
At UNIVERSITY \ | ' R

One of the great events in the state
during the past week was the Home
Coming Day at the University of
North Dakota on Saturday, Oct. 28.
It was great day for the University;
it was great day for North Dakota,
for in the great mass meeting in the
morning, in the enthusiasm shown in
the football game in the afternoon and
in the toast program Of the banquet Of
the evening, the fact was. apparent
that one Of the things that makes a
University OF q commonwealth great.
il Tie efsonality 81 its people. Among
the speakers We're some Of the most
prominent men in the state, all gradu.
ates Of the University.
Lynn J. Frazier, candidate for gov
ernor, stood as an example Of the farm
boy whose University education not
only did not unfit him for the work OF
farming, to which he returned after
his graduation but has placed him as
the foremost man in the politics Of the
state today.
Hon. Victor WARDROBE was one of
the convocation speakers, another of
North Dakota's sons, who is can
didate for states attorney of Benson
county. Fred Traynor of Devils Lake
son Of the soil, has done much to
make politics in North Dakota cleaner,
was a speaker of the evening. All of
these and many other speakers are ex-
amples Of what the State University
of North Dakota has done for it's peo-
pie and in their addresses they quoted
examples Of men who have come
up from our farms, graduated from
the University, and have taken the
most prominent places in the work Of
the state.the state legislature and the
halls Of Congress-
Another fact was noticeable at this
Home Coming time. Among the Al
umni were many women of middle age
who as much as two decades ago grad
uated from the State University. They
are now among the leading house
wives in their communities. Some are
presidents Of Civic League and the
Women's Clubs in their towns. 9th
ers as farmers wives are prize win
ners as butter makers and raisers of
poultry in the better farming contests
and all Of them realizing what an ed
ncation means in the business Of life,
are Vending, or planning to send, their
sons and daughters to the institution
that has fitted them for the success
they are making.

McCUMBER'S RECORD
IS RMARkABLE


It is really remarkable thing when
we stop to think, that during the 1s
years which P. ]. McCumber has serv-
ed in the United States Senate, there
has not been a criticism of the press
throughout the country as to his off
cia lacts. Nearly all public men are
criticized more or less over their Off
cial actions at some time, but can you
recall any real criticism of Mr.. Nc
Cumebr during his entire service at
Washington? Mr.. Voter, this is y
thing for you to think about. Does It
not show that his service to the state
and nation has been very satisfa:-
tory? Think this over before you
cast your ballot. North Dakota has
never had another senator with such
record along this line.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Can't something be done for the en-
listed man-United States Navy-to lift HIM
out Of the slough of contempt into which our
very mistaken Secretary Of the Navy mas
placed him? Does Mr.. Daniels not see that
he is doing us the greatest OF injuries by
alternating US from our superiors by con-
certed system Of foolish conspicuousness and
is simply damning us with his attentions
