BURBANK OUT FOR WILSON,
"THE GREATEST STATESMAN

Announcing his support of President
Wilson, Luther Burbank. the horticul-
turist wizard of California, said
II believe him to be the greatest
statesman we have ever had
Mr.. Burbank, the Edison of scientific
horticulture, declared that without re.
serve he indorsed the position announc-
ed week earlier by Thomas A Edi-
son. Both Burbank and Edison have
been lifelong Republicans. Edison put
1t this way:
"Times are TOO serious to talk in
terms of Republicanism or Democracy
When it's America that is at stake
men have got to vote as Americans A
fool or a coward would have had the
United States in all sorts Of trouble
AS It is, we are at peace, the country
was never more prosperous, and we
have the strength that comes with hon
or and integrity of purpose"

DISCOURAGED

] saw a lad the other day
Go by with a dropping head,
With q tired look and gloomy eyes
And slow and weary tread.
! asked him what the matter was,
lie raised his tired eyes,
And said, I'm dead discouraged,
That's where the trouble lies.
Now strange as II may seem 10 you,
My heart was full OF Joy
In hearing him say just those words
I'll tell you why my boy.
IL showed he was not satisfied
With his own life, you see,
And what applies to him may well
Apply TO you and me.
The lad who goes ahead cock sure,
And thinks that he's all right;
Who goes ahead In blind conceit.
Puts up a losing fight.
And so when you are feeling blue,
And life looks dull and sad.
Remember what | tell you,
And then cheer up my lad.
Discouragements are bound to come,
But when they do just say,
This means that I'm not satisfied,
I'll try better way"
God sends discouragements to us
70 help us in the fray;
So brace up, lads, there's lots of hope.
Wen win some day

DIR. GLADDEN. GIVES WILSON HIS
BALLOT
Clergyman Says Democrats Now Bet
ter Represent Progressive
Democracy

Rev. DR.. Washington GLADDEN., for
years regarded as strongly Republi-
can in his political attitude, has an
nounced his intention to vote for Pre-
sidnnt Wilson at the coming election.
In making the announcement Rev.
Dr. GLADDEN. states as his strongest
reasons that the ideas and principles
of progressive democracy are better
represented at the coming election by
the Democratic party and It's leaders
than by the Republican party and its
leaders.
MY first vote for president was
cast for Abraham Lincoln in 1860"
he said. I'm 1912 voted for Roose-
welt, with the Progressives.
Took Downward Step
For many years | have felt great
admiration for Mr.. Hughes and | re-
joiced to see him elevated to what
seemed to me the summit of a law
yer's ambition seat upon the SUI
preme bench.
No man can ever leave that emil
nence for party leadership without
stepping down, and | was gratified
when Justice Hughes, in his cores
pondence with Rabbi Wise two or
three years ago, seemed to make it
clear that such was his conviction.
81 confess that my opinion of Judge
Hughes was perceptibly lowered
when, on the supreme bench, he OBJ
viously kept that possibility open,
and subsequent events have not reas-
sured me.
Il do not think that ex-President
Eliot (of Harvard) has oYerstated the
case when he says: Anyone who sur
veys the extraordinary series of legis-
lation and executive acts accomplish
ed by the Democratic party in three
years and a half will realize two
things: First, that President Wilson
has proved himself a party leader of
unusual power; second that the party
thus led has done much more for the
country than the Republican party ac-
complished in five times as many
years
Il have not been in entire sympa-
thy with all of Mr.. Wilson's policies
| regretted the extent to which he
yielded to the mania for prepared
ness, but that was a popular craze
which il was difficult to stand against,
and the Republicans and their leaders
were more responsible for it than the
Democrats.
WantOn Attacks Start
"The moderation and rationlity eX-
hibited by Mr.. Wilson in the conduct
Of our national affairs were almost
recognized by our people
during the first year OF the war; most
of us heard during all that time from
men of all parties the warmest ex-
pressions of gratitude that the helm
was in the hands of sane and jud-
cial leader.
When the election drew near the
caldron began to bubble. 1t was in
that the most reasonless and
wanton attacks would be made upon
the president; at time when the ma
ton ought to be standing firmly to-
either, all the resources of party poll
ties are drawn upon to dlscredIt our
national leader"
