WOMEN MAKING
 AUTO TOUR FOR
 WILSON VOTES
Leave Gilt Edged Trains to Idle eHughes Advocates and
 Take to Family Cars

The humble Ford and all the other little cars that carry the plain people of the United States about theiE busi- ness and pleasure have come into their own as agencies for reaching the voters in a presidential cam paign. As usual, women are the in- novators. \
 Leaving private trains and other expensive frills to the Hughes cam paigners, women pledged to the re- election of the President who gave them the Child Labor Law and the ChiIdren,s Bureau are organizing by neighborhoods from New York to California to spread the gospel of wilson, peace and humanity through every countryside and every city ward. ~
 Letters and telegrams by the thous- and are being received at the Wo- mems Bureau of the Democratic Ma tional Committee in New York city offering the use of the family auto mobile and the leisure-hour services Of women who see President Will sons cause as the cause of every good mother and every good citizen.
 On a big map at Headquarters colored pegs are sprouting as coun- ty after county reports the enlist ,ment of women volunteers They will carry pamphlets and leaflets, as well as personal messages, telling why they regard the Presidents cleo ton as ,all-important. The work is being directed at Headquarters by Mrs. Charles Dana Gibson and other enthusiastic Wilson workers.
 "Our women volunteers are not going out with blare of trumpets to tell other people what they should do," said Mrs. Gibson. ".Each wo- man will cover her own immediate neighborhood and talk in neighbor- ly friendly fashion with those she meets along the country roads and at the farm houses and in the city streets.
 There will be a lot of devotion and no glitter about this work. The women undertaking it are acting from deep conviction-not from a desire to take part in some fashion able and exciting exploit as a relief from the bofedom of social life. The kind of women who are to drive their family cars along the roads for us don't get bored with life. They are in dead earnest, and they have some thing they are sure is worth saying to the friends and neighbors they meet along their way.
 "No district will be too remote or obscure to be included in this can- vass. It is another step toward realizing that electing a President is the peoples own business and that the good citizens duties are not con- fined to voting on election day."
 There will be sub-centers of the automobile campaign in the large cities of the West, and each Demo- cratic CoHtfty Chairman will provide headquarters for the automobile campaign in his district.

AN APPRECIATION.
or of The Farmer:

To the Editor of The Farmer:
 In the passing away of William Williams, on Wednesday last, Bridge port has lost, with the exception of a very few years, a lifelong resident of such sterling qualities, that only those who knew him best can fully appreciate. Honesty unsurpassed and a full observance of the Golden Rule, worthy advise, and ready help to all who sought it, will endear his memory to all who came within his life and acquaintance.
 He was pattern-maker by trade for 27 years, an employ of the old firm of Eaton, Cole & Burnham Co.,. having been retired by them a few years ago.
 He was an honored member of the Odd Fellows lodge and for a num- Der of years a member of Washing ton Park M. E. church.
 He had been in failing health for sometime, and to one, his wife, who was his constant companion and who watched faithfully and untiringly night and day was the extent of his suffering known.
 May his high principals of man. hood leave lasting impression on all who knew him. A Friend.

THOMAS H. INCE
 LAUOS PRESIDENT IN CIVILIZATION
"Watchful Waiting" Is Ap- piled Christianity, De-
 clares Movie Producer

New York, Oct. 19.-Thomas H. Ince, producer of the famous Tri- angle moving picture films, who add ed a special feature to his photo drama "Civilization," to bring the Wilson argument home to his au- diences, has sent to the Woodrow Wilson Independent League the fol- lowing statement:
 'I will vote for Woodrow Wilson because. he is saving civilization by keeping Us at peace. He has main tained peace with honor. =
 "Civil and revolutionary warfare has solved great problems, but mill lions of quiet-thinking courageous
 people are convinced that Interna- tional warfare settles absolutely nothing.
 CT agree with the President that it is useless to fight until we have
 something really worth while fight ing for. To talk of being held in contempt by all the world because we have proceeded as we have is silly and absurd. fWatchful waiting is applied Christianity, and a reunited North and South America is the fruition of President Wilson's foreign policy. Four more years of Wilson
 will so cement that friendship that | it will be everlasting.
 "Woodrow Wilson will get his tory's verdict on his foreign policy | alone. Even his enemies by their failure to criticize his international policies admit his enviable position
 in history in that regard. There are enough thinking unpretudiced peo- pie to give him national vote ot kconfidence at this time."

PREDICT LABOR LANDSLIDE FOR ! ADMINISTRATION
Attitude of Employees To. ward 8-Hour Law En-
 courages Democrats

Evidence accumulates daily that or. ganized labor is landshding for the ar- ministraion. Not only are the work / ing men themselves lined up for the Wilson administration on account of its favorable attitude toward them, as shown chiefest of all in the pass age of the Adamson bill,> but the att titude of employers of labor in vart- pus parts of the country toward the feight-hour law has been such as to encourage Democratic leaders.
 A sensation was sprung Monday of this week when the announcement was made that one of the largest facA tories in the heart of strong Republi- can territory, was placed by action of its owners under the operation of the eight-hour day law with ten hours pay.
 .. Endicott & Johnson, of Bingham ton, N. r., owners of one of the larg- est shoe manufactures in the world, win, beginning November 1, establish throughout their plant the eight hour day. Further provision is made that this will not affect the wages of piece workers who will receive scale that will permit them to continue at the prices they now receive.
 George F. Johnson, one of the members of the firm, is lifelong Re- publican, and his associate, H. B. En- dicott. has always been regarded as a Republican in principle. Recently both MT. Endicott and MT. Johnson announced that they will support Will son. MT. Johnson is a strong ad- mirer of President Wilson's policies and when the President took his stand fin favor of the Adamson law for an eight hour day MT. Johnson coincid- ed with him., 't
 The action of Johnson is believed ito have made many thousands of votes flor Wilson in the locality of Bing- hamtpn. Republican managers re- gard conditions in Broome county, es- pecially in the town of Union, where the factories are located, as seri- ous.

n-AUCK DENIES RAILROAD
 MEN WILL SUFFER ANY ,
 REDUCTION IN WAGES

Washington, Oct. 1S.-W. Jett Lauck, economic expert and chief statistician for the railroad brother hoods. issued a statement to-day dis posing of the claim made by Repub- lican politicians that train service employees in the passenger service will suffer reduction of pay on account of the Adamson eight-hpur law.
 Referring to reports published that passenger engineers would be paid by the hour instead of on "a mileage basis after January 1, MT. Lauck said:
 "The Adamson law does not sub stftute hours for distance or miles as basis of payment. By the terms of the Atkinson law, eight Is sub stituted for ten hours in, existing agreements between the railroads and their employees. This is the express provision of the law and President Wilson specifically so stated in his address to Congress.
 The basis of payment remains absolutely unchanged in this respect. Employees may take either hours or miles for any trip, as has\ been the custom hitherto. Under the provi- sions of the Adamson law rates of pay to passenger men could not be reduced"

 There is no foundation whatever Tor the statement that passenger con- nuctors oppose the Adamson law on the ground of fear of a reduction in earnings. Nothing in the law war rants such -ah attitude"
