DAVID lUBlN ADVOCATES
REELECTION OF WILSON.
Father Of American Rural Credits,
Another Leading Republican, to
Join Presidents Standard.

David Lubin, founder Of the Inter-
national Institute of Agriculture and
father Of the rural credits movement
in America, has Joined the list of
prominent Republicans openly advocat-
ing the reelection of President Will
son. Within a fortnight Thomas A.
Edison, Luther Burbank and Henry
Ford, all Republicans and men Of in
ternational fame, have done the same.
David Lubin is a wealthy California
farmer. His interest in securing a
square deal for the farmer led him to
make research abroad, and out of his
efforts grew the International Institute
of Agriculture at Rome This institu-
ton does for the staples of agriculture
of the world what the American cham
Der of commerce does for the products
of the American manufacturer.
Through his connection with the i'll
stitute he became interested in the

rural credit systems of Europe and led
the movement which resulted in the
passage Of the Rural Credits Act by
the Wilson administration.
Just before departing for Italy re-
Gently, Mr.. Lubin authorized an ill.,
terview of 1900 words in which he
gave his opinion of those acts Of the
Wilson administration which directly
affect the farmer. This has been fur
nished without cost to every leading
farm paper in the United States. If
the farmer does not read it i'm his
farm paper it will probably be because
the editor does not care to use his
columns for discussion Of economic
questions and government policies that
vitality affect the farmer.
Mr.. Lubin said: in the application
Of business methods Of distribution.
America, until the present administra-
ton, was about $50 years behind Ger
many and several decades behind the
rest Of Europe. And yet in the very
thing in which America is backward
she should lead the world. She does
not, because clique Of special inter-
ests dictated public opinion and con-
trolled legislation through the bosses
Of the Republican party. So cleverly
have they worked that the average
man is hypnotized, his critical facul-
ties dulled.
president Wilson is neither fooled
nor led by this crowd. He is tireless,
patient, farseeing. He has historic
sense Of the past, sympathetic sense
of the present and prophetically
spiritual sense of the future. While
his head is above the clouds, his feet
are always upon the earth. He is
idealistic on the one side, on the other
practical He Is good business man.
HE knows that good politics and
good economies are the same thing.
He is fearless; IN al my relations with
him, direct or. indirect, fail to find
anything or anybody he Is afraid Of"

T. R. RECEIVES FROST,

Wilkes Barre Miners Strong For vii.
son-Others Bolt the Re-
publican Party.

III you love me, vote for Hughes is
an injunction that proved too hard a
strain on the liking that the $4,000
miners of the Wilkes Barre district
once had for Col. Roosevelt. He tried
it on them, in what was intended to be
the biggest labor meeting of the
Hughes campaign, and the result was
frost.
Not only did the crowd listen to the
Colonels speech in stony silence, but
Wilson enthusiasm threatened to be-
come so boisterous that Mayor Kosek
called out the State Constabulary to
guarantee Mr.. Roosevelt a courteous
reception. The Mayor had denied the
miners a permit to give Wilson pa
rade on the night of the Colonel's visit,
and, when they attempted to violate
his order, directed the armed and
mounted Constabulary to drive them
from the streets.
Col. Roosevelt's closest friend in
Wilkes-Ba Father J. j. Curran,
went out with a reception committee
to meet the visitor, but announced
that, friendship ASIDE, ne naO lett the
Republican party, and was support
ing President Wilson.
Another indication of the popular
trend in the anthracite coal region is
given in a statement by Stephen J.
Hughes, city clerk Of Hazleton, and a
delegate to the Republican national
convention in 1912.
Concerning the unauthorized use
of my name as member of the re-
ception committee for Col Roosevelt"
says Mr.. Hughes, II wish to state
emphatically: was volunteer in the

PEACE OR war The ISSUE.


!: Speaking at Battle Greek. Mich,
Sept. 80 last, Theodore Roosevelt said:
=" have been asked what would have
done had been President when the
lusitania was torpedoed.
IL would have instantly taken posses
sion Of every German ship informed in
this country and then would have
said: Now we will discuss, not what
we will give, but what we will give
back!'"
THAT WOULD HAVE MEANT
WAR!
It would have been a challenge to
the German nation to trial at arms.
1t would have been violation of ev-
cry principle of neutrality, and at a
time, with all Europe under arms.
when this country was the trustee of
and the only nation capable of uphold.
ing neutral rights.
The seizure itself would have been
an act of war, just as the seizure Of
German fnterned ships by Portugal
was regarded as an act of war and
was followed by an immediate declara-
ton Of war by Germany against Por-
tugal.
Following the same line Of var talk.
speaking at Lewiston, Maine. Aug. 81
last. Mr.. Roosevelt said:
1.-THE policies of Americanism and
preparedness, taken together. mean
applied patriotism. There should be
correlation Of policy and armament
America, which sprang to the
succor of Cuba IN 1898. has stood an
idle spectator of the invasion of Bel
GUM, the sinking of the Lusitania, the
continued slaughter Of our own citi-
zens, and of the reign of anarchy.
rapine and murder in Mexico"
These are the deliberate declarations
Of the man with whom Candidate
Hughes has said, II AM IN CON-
PLETE ACCORD" and Hughes has
publicly congratulated Roosevelt for
what he said.
From their public statements the
conclusion is inevitable that if either
Roosevelt or Hughes had been Presi-
dent when the Army of the Kaiser in
vaded Belgium we would have had
war with Germany; that when the Lu-
sitania was sunk that We would have
had war with Germany, and that now
we would have instant war with Ger
many over the submarine raids in the
Atlantic Ocean off the Massachusetts
Coast.
Must we not agree with President
Wilson when speaking at Shadow
Lawn on Sept. so, last, he said:
cam not right that we must draw
the conclusion that if the Republican
party is put into power at the next
election, our foreign policy will be rad
ically changed?
Il cannot draw any other inference.
All our present foreign policy is wrong,
they say, and if it is wrong and they
are men Of conscience they must change
it.
"And if they are going to change it.
in what direction are they going to
change? THERE is ONLY ONE
CHOICE AS AGAINST PEACE, AND
THAT is WAR" 49,, -..- .>-.1e.~-.-
No other conclusion can he drawn.
What is YOUR conclusion, thought
full citizen?
In the last analysis, the election will
be decided by the farmer vote. And 50
on the farmer is the responsibility of
whether this country shall have peace
or war.
The only assurance that the country
will not be needlessly plunged into war
is for YOU to vote for Woodrow Will
son.
FOR PEACE OR WAR YOUR CON.
SCIENCE AND YOUR VOTE MUST
DECIDE.

MRS. ANToiNETTE FUNK.
In his refusal Mr.. Robins indicated
that he would decline all offers to
match logic with opponents on the
question of Progressive activity in the
presidential campaign.
Mrs. Funk is a lawyer in Chicago
and was one Of the prominent leaders
of the Progressive movement SO long
as Colonel Roosevelt remained at the
head of it. She and Mr.. Robins tesght
side by side for Progressive prineQles,
and she was one Of the most active
campaigners for Mr.. Robins In the
senatorial campaign in Illinois. two
years ago.
Mrs. Funk now is a member OF the
Associate Committee of ProgressiEes
cooperating with the Democrats Ma
tional Campaign Committee. She put
her challenge to. Mr.. Robins on the
high ground of public service, asking
that her former associate submit the
case of Wilson versus Hughes to popu-
lar juries.
In her letter to Mr.. Robins Mrs.
Funk said: -.

arouse suspicion before the eli

"Therc is little if any variety
in relating the story of the de-

sc|f-evident proposition that a
hundred and fifty dollar n month
cashier could not reasonably live
in extravaganza. Such cashier
could not indulge a champagne
appetite with a near-beer salary.
1t is then that the directors of the
bank should have investigated
into the safety Of their banks. It
is conceded that the rascally cash
Ter can manipulate and crook his
books in order to deceive, but the
bank examiner, in connection with
the officials and the directors of
