Laying politics aside for the nonce
and coming down to a reasonable
and sensible view of the question at
its last analysis, would it be good
policy to throw President Wilson out
after nearly four years of very try
ing experience and put man in his
place who is absolutely without eX-
perience in this vitality important
place? Would this be good business
or good sense? What has Wilson
done that Hughes could improve
upon-and how? Hughes himself is
not definite along this line. Can the
people afford to swap real acts for
q visionary policy?

education of young people in the
schools of the State could be select
cd than the current newspapers

There is a remarkable dearth of
knowledge Of current events in the
average school body of to-day. The
educational idea is confined almost
entirely TO textbooks. The printed
book page is all right for basic in

the pupil also needs knowledge up

furnish of varied sort. People
who do not read newspapers cannot
say they are educated in a modern

Candidate Hughes has a rather
hard time trumping up charges in
his attacks on President Wilson. 1t
is hard in one way and easy in an
other. 1t is easy for anybody to
criticise the actions or course of
conduct of somebody in public life.
This is simply hot air. But Mr..
Hughes is finding it hard to make
some of his charges stick. His
speech at Detroit last week brought
forth assertions by administration
officials that il was false as to
facts and of misleading substance. y
We hope Mr.. Hughes is not also a
candidate for the Ananias Club.
