Need of Constructive Legislation.

Just before the European war broke,
out we had a million skilled mechan-I
les out of work and nearly half a mill
lion railroad men were idle, together
with nearly half million freight cars.|
The railroads were suffering FROM
lack of freight to carry to market, and.
industry was gradually becoming
stagnant In Louisiana two hundred
thousand acres of sugar land were
plowed up because of Democratic
changes in the tariff law. 1t is gen.
orally conceded by all save the blind
that the country was not progressing
Attempts were made to keep courage
up by the predictions made by Secre-
taries McAdoo and Redfield and Presi-
dent Wilson of the great trade boomS
which were soon to appear but which
failed to materialize until the outbreak
Of war on the continent.

POINTS FROM
HUGHES SPEECHES

Reckless extravaganza Of the
Democrats is an insult to the
American people.
Deserving Democratic Deserv-
ing in heavens name Of what?
We have a splendid system Of
government, on paper, but we
want that system vitalized.
The pork barrel bill brings a
blush Of shame to the cheeks Of
every American.
] am here because. / have a
vision Of what America needs.
An idle American will always
feel uncomfortable.
America will not hold her own
by high-Sounding phrases.
Are we not q nation great
enough to have sufficient fore
sight to protect our borders in
a sensible fashion by means OF
sensible preparedness?
If we state our rights In a firm
and determined manner II
should carry conviction. There
should be no vacillation In con-
nection with that assertion.

Would you like to have been an Amer
lean soldier at CarrizaI?
Do you love Carranza?
Do you believe in a financial regime

Do you desire to cut the Philippines
loose in order that japan may gobbIe
them?
Do you want four more years OF
Daniels?
Do you approve Of wrecl<ng the dipIo-
matte service to provide jobs for
deserving Democrats?
Are you in favor of imitation?
Do you believe in preparedness for
flood of cheap European wares as
soon as peace comes?
Have you noticed the significant in
crease of imports in the past year,
despite the war?
How did fool free trade hit your line
of business before August, 1914?
And your friends?
Were you all cheered up by the Un-
derwood tariff bill?
Do you think the doubling of the
income tax is fair while millions
worth of competitive imports come
in free?
Where are you going to be when the
war babies die and business slips
back to the cold, hard, normal basis2
Can you conceive of any possible
good to you or to the country from
another Presidential term like the
present one?
Will you perpetuate sectionaIism,

At the annual meeting Of postmas-

assistant postmaster-general lauded
the postal savings system. That must
have been bitter pill for Postmaster
General Burleson, who sat on the same
platform with his assistant. When the
postal savings bill was passed. Mr..
Burleson, then a Congressman from
Texas, voted against it. Every vote
cast against it was cast by Demo-
crat. Not one Democratic Congress-

College mates of young Orpet, University of Wis

BERT testify that Orpet had peculiar fascination
for young girls and that he frequently boosted of his
conquests, and that upon at least one occasion, he
laid wager that he could do certain things with
particular young girl which wager he won.
We are disposed to let the courts pass upon the
question of Orpet's guilt or innocence of the muir
der
Yet we are prone to remark, that upon the testi-
mony of his own school mates, young Orpet is a snob
of the worst kind. "A man who habitually poses as
"heart smasher" is detestable thing but the one
who boasts about it in individual instances is consid-
erably worse than detestable.
Young girls would do well to fight shy of youths

leads to death and dishonor; almost always So if ac
