Mr.. Ford !. President.

The republicans who are voting
for Henry Ford for president are In
a comprehensive state Of mind:
They have been scared nearly 70
death by Roosevelt. and fear him -
the high priest OF Moloch. +. r..
has outtalked himself. and people.
frightened by his manner OF speak
ing, forget his manner OF acting.
Mr.. Ford sootnes the alarmed folk
by his words. and they do not con-
scider that later he would scare
them to death by his manner OF act
ing.
Mr.. Ford is y good deal like the
person who says there Is no such
thing as smallpox. because II there
we're such thing he would dislike
1t immensely. and things he does not
like do not exist. Occasionally =
community OF such persons rises up
and has more smallpox than all OF
the rest OF the country.
Rather than take Roosevelt theae
voters would take Hughes, who rep
resents blank in their minds: rather
than take Hughes they would take
Ford.
Any one who has seen President
Wilson progress from pacifism to
belligerency knows. Just what would
happen to Mr.. Ford. Our prophecy
is that he would have ten wars to
Rooseveit's one and that the nation
under his Leadership would be whip
ped In all of them. II he picked good
sized wars. and that n Roosevelt got
the nation into war he would be like
ly to win II and gain something from
1t.
We would give Mr.. Ford three
months TO consent TO naturalization
and loss OF the Panama canal. six
months to lose the Philippines and
Hawaii, nine months to pronounce
the Monroe doctrine dead. and just =
year. having lost everything except
the continental integrity Of the
United States. to be In = furious war
against superior forces over nothing.
