of five thousand a day. They are
co@ing from all parts of the country,
aud the work of organizing branches
in all states ana most of the important
cities has been started. A large per-
centage Of the enrolments are from
men who give their usual political
affiliations as Progressive, Democratic
or Independent.
The league has received the en-
dorsemput of Governor Hughes, who
wired: III there was ever time
when the educated men of the country
who have its welfare at heart shonld
work for right principles and strong
government 1t is now" Chairman
Wilcox Of the Republican National
Committee, ex-preSident Taft, and

themselves as of the real work 1t will

viction Over and over in Their

Democrat who never voted for q
Republican candidate for President ex-
cept in 1872, when he was forced by
the lack of a Democratic nominee to
cast his ballot for Horace Greeley,
says: II expect to vote for Woodrow
Wilson, hut | don't like his course in
the railroad dispute. He didn't do
right"
The railroad controversy has intro
duced moral Issue into the campaign.
Mr.. Wilson sacrificed principle to ex-
pediency. or what he judged to be
expediency, when he tamely surren-
dered to the demands of the train
service brotherhoods
He put his own personal and party
need before the public good He angled
for votes. He aimed body blow at
the tried and tested arbitration method
Of settling differences.

helped them if he had stood impartial
~ between them and the utterly reck-
less train-service representatives

programme.
"He didn't do right" The consci-
BUSINESS of that fact is sinking deep
into the American mind.
"He didn't do right" That wide
spread conviction will cost him thou
sands of votes on election day.
