WIN AND LOSE.
DEBORAH III. S. Boys Lost to New
Hampton but DEBORAH Girls
Win.
Boys Game.

| Boys Game.
The DEBORAH high school boys
lost to New Hampton, 81 to so, in &
Iheart-breaking contest Friday nigh
The New Hampton scoring machine
could not be headed off at all during
the first half. With a four point
lead 70 overcome DEBORAH started TO
make the usual second half recovery.
With only four minutes left 70 play,
DEBORAH seemed to be running home
alone with New Hampton six points
| to the bad. Here came the break in
the game. Schlatter, who had been
! playing a star game went out on
fouls, and the New Hampton quin-
tette, lucky, of course, but cool
enough to take advantage of it, forg-
ed to the front, just nosing out a
victory before the whistle blew.
Following is the line up:

Girls Game.
The DEBORAH girls won with ease
from the New Hampton team here
last Friday in he first of two game
series by a score of forty eight to
three. The home team showed more
speed and experience and easily over
came the efforts of the visitors to
stage a game on equal terms. The
two forwards, Sarah Cummings and
Myra Sayles, displayed much skill
in basket throwing, the former scor-
ing twenty-eight points and the lat
ter twenty.

AMERICAN FEDER-
ALTON OF LABOR

The American Federation of Labor,
until this campaign, has vigorously
adhered to policy of non-partisan-
ship in politics. 1t bad very good
reasons for such course, and, con
versely, it must have excellent rea-
sons for abandoning all precedent, to
desert this fixed policy and officially
urge trade.unionists to support the
Wilson administration argues an ex-
traordlnary situation.
The labor representation commit
tee of the American Federation of
Labor, which makes the recommend,
alton, finds such a condition in Amer
lean politics as warrants its change
of policy. 1t finds q "change in the
spirit of the nation" which is 'of
more consequence than statutory leg
islation," and urges union men to
support the Wilson administration
because what has been accomplished
in the past three and a balf years for
the benefit Of labor indicates broad
er appreciation for the rights of hu.
maDity than ever before demonstrate
ed by party in power.
The Wilson administration undeni-
ably has accomplished more construc-
tive legislation in It's short three and
half years of power than did the re-
publican administration of ten times
as many years. Remedial and pro
tective legislation, of which the child
labor law and the prohibition of th {
use of iujunctions in labor disputes
are excellent examples, has been
| placed on the statute books that will
| further ameliorate working and liv-
ing conditions than any republican
effort since Lincoln signed the eman
cipation proclamation.
For such relief as this labor, az
represented by the American fedora
ton, cannot help but feel a gratitud
and an appreciation not to be eX
pressed by any formal resolutions
but readily to be expressed at the
polls. Nor is it only that gratitude
demands union labor support thu
present administration. Assured, b.
past performances, that the demo
cratic administration has at hear
the interests of labor, it is but The
part of wisdom for labor to endeavo
to continue in power the party which
has done SO much to forward thos
interests.

WILSON TO CARRY WEST

Chicago, sOct 3oVance c. McCor-
mick, chairman of the democratic nation
al committe, came to Chicago today for
conference with Senator Thomas !.
Walsh, manager of the western demo-
cratic western headquarters.
The situation in the western territory,
Chairman Mccormick said, looks like
landslide. He declared that the west
has no edge on the east in the matter
of loyalty to the president. He said the
situation from democratic viewpoint is
improving steadily. He predicted the
president would carry New York.
Illinois, Ohio and Indiana also are for
the president, Chairman Mccormick as
serted. He said he confidently expects
the president to carry Connecticut, New
Jersey, Delaware, Maryland and West
Virginia and that Wilson sentiment is
sweeping the Pacific coast.

THE NATION WIDE BUSINESS BUILDER
HUGHES AN ENEMY OF LABOR

(Iranslation from Chicago Ar
Zeitung," October 20)
The German-American alliance
tries hard to paint their candidate
in the most pretty colors. They show
a picture of him that may look all
right under the spot light of the stage
but it loses all its pretty color effect
in the merciless light of the day.
Thus, if one comes to see the real
Hughes. that much lauded candidate
with the noble and beautiful quail
ties, there is nothing left but just a
common reactionary, but of the most
sinister sort.
First of all, they praise him as the
great friend of labor'-the theoreti-
facts show up this friend of the la
boring man as one of the worst en-.
emies of labor His activities in the
judgment on the Danbury hatmakers'
strike case has branded him with the
mark of Cain, of which he will never
| be able to rid himself. Aud work
| ing mau who sees this man branded
with the mark of Cain and yet votes
| for Hughes, deserves to have to go
i through hard times, for he has volun-
| tarily given his oath to an enemy OF
| labor.
''There is another indictment
against Hughes destroying the legend
of the Great Friend of the Worhing
man Hughes Hughes has publicly
| declared himself against the eight
| hour law, and if anyone does that, he
ceases, according to the conception
OF the laboring men, to be q Iaborine
man 8 friend.
"Hughes further declares to be il
favor of arbitration courts and wouIC
| like to see the right of the working
man TO strike done away with. Tha
tits exactly to his attitude in the Dan
bury hatmakers' strike.
And this foe Of labor they ask III
German n-American workingmen t,
vote for2 They would deserve ;
thresbing if they did"

ODDS ON THE CANDIDATES

Election day is only four days off
and already the republicans are pri-
vately willing to concede Hughes de-
feat Publicly, for appearance sake.
they are still talking large of what q
landslide majority the old guard
candidate will receive, but they are
not willing to back their talk with
coin of the realm. In Wall street,
which is naturally bound to support
It's candidate by uneven odds as long
as 1t is good Judgment to do so, the
betting, which was once ten to FIVE
against Wilson, has changed steadily
until now Hughes hackers are offer
ing even money, aud that very caut-
iously. Elsewhere the odds have
been in Wilson's favor for long
time.
In the big cities which, because
they are cosmopolitan, give better
concept of the general political situ-
alton, it is remarkable, and quite
significant the manner in which the
working men are docking to the Will
son standard. Conductors, clerks,
carpenters and all day laborers, al
most without exception, are talking
Wilson, urging the labor legislation
the Wilson administration has &C
complished aud declaring their in
tention OF keeping in power the men
who have shown the most cOnsidera-
lion for the workers within two score
years.
The republicans are claiming to
nave attracted to their ranks from
sixty to eighty per cent of the pro-
gressiyes who abandoned the party to
follow Roosevelt in 1912. The demo-
Gratis are willing to concede this per-
| centage to those progresslves who
| abandoned republican ranks to follow
| Roosevelt, but che real progressiyes,
| and they were in the majority, who
left the party because of Barnes and
Penrose and Smoot and Root, are
| iockiDg to the democratic party.
Progressves broke away from the
republican party because it was re-
dictionary. They formed party of
their own because they did not be-
lieye the democratic party, the Oldest
party of all. could be progressive in
its ideas and ideals. Three years of
democratic administration, during
which time more constructive legis-
ation was accomplished than ever
before in the nations history in q
similar time, has convinced these
real progressives, who WerenOt mere
ly following demagogue, that the
democratic party is as progressive as
they hoped their own party would be
and they are rallying to the demo-
cratic standard.
AS a result Of this falling away of
progressive support, on which the
republican leaders counted for VIC
tory, the old guard mahouts are all at
sea- There has been hasty attempt,
, at the eleventh hour, to reform poll
cies, to quiet Hughes and to hush up
Roosevelt, but it is too late. Having
opened the tloodgates to the Yltupera'
ton and calumny of the two party
principals they are being swept away
ma election is too close for them to
lam the food and turn Into another
channel. 1t is all over. except cal
cuIating the damage.
