EACH GIVES REASONS
FOR POLITICAL FAITH
Candidates and Politics Dis
cussed From Partisan
Viewpoint
By George G.. Hill.

In 1912, Woodrow Wilson received
100000 fewer votes than the COM
bined vote of Taft and Roosevelt, both
Of whom were running on platforms
which declared firmly and unequivocal-
ly for adequate protection for Amer
lean industries and American work
men. There was considerable shifting
of voters that year, some republicans
voting for Wilson, and some democrats
voting for Roosevelt, but in the estima-
tion of the most experienced political
observers, that 100000 votes repre-
sented the majority of protectionists in
this country over free traders, or ad-
vocates of tariff law for revenue
only. This year the progressives have
gotten together with the republicans in
a determined and patriotic effort to
beat Mr.. Wilson, to accomplish repeal
of the Underwood bill, to achieve
genuine industrial preparedness
against the commercial situation which
inevitably will attend the ending of
the European war; to establish a con-
sistent foreign policy which will com
pei the respect of foreign nations and
keep this country out of war when the
European war is ended and European
nations with great ornaments and
empty treasures, are tempted to look
covetously toward Uncle Sam IS great
wealth.
Campaign managers claims are u.s.
ually exaggerated Straw votes rarely
tell the story, because the important
vote is the silent vote, the men who
will not tell whom they are going
to support. This year, especially,
thousands, tens of thousands of demo.
Gratis, dissatisfied with the present ad-
ministration will vote for Charles E..
Hughes, but will say nothing about it
because they do not care to forfeit
their affiliation with the democratic
party. 1t is evidence of this trend, to-
gether with their confidence in the
great prepondfnrence of protection
sentiment in this country, whirk makes
the republican campaign nllaagers so
confident of the election II Charles
Evans Hughes.
Daily capital journal. (Salem, Oregon) 1903-1919, 1916-11-04

There will DE lot Of devotion
and no glitter about this work. The
women under taking it are acting
from deep conviction--not from a
relief from the boredom 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 something 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. II is another step toward
realizing that electing 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-

headquarters for the automobile cam
