Sunday Morning, August 27, 1916.

In his oratorcal jaunt the continent the Re n,bcan candidate has made a number of kaeidoscopic shifts of attitude which have almost approached spec tacularity.
 He set forth from Niagara full panOped for war The main topic of his earliest addresses were Mexico and the wrongs the people that had inflicted upon the United States the blood efusons of American soldiers and citizens at Columbus Carrizal and Vera Cruz the sanctity of Huerta dictatorship the de struction of our Mexican the cowardly and inconsistent of President Wilson at all times He added to this endorsement of the Anthony amend ment for woman suffrage
 He called for big preparedness in order to carry out strict accountability.
 He warned the world that the drop of hat would mean the United in warike action with all the world if need be.
 How he stentoranzed in his general belligerency in the wholesale denuncaton of the party now in power
 Durand Herrick and other Republicans who were sue ceeded by Democrats made political martyrs
 Civil service principles had overridden by Pres ident Wilson and partisansp running riot in the government.
 What a change by the time he reached the State of Washington!
 In the two speeches delivered at Seattle to large gatherings, he did refer to Mexico
 His views on suffrage had undergone something or other which was expressed by him in this language: While did not propose attempt to add and could not add to the platform my party stated my personal conviction that the amendment should be submitted and ratified"
 Personally favored" but would be unable to at tempt to add anything the platform of his party!

 He then spoke for peace with honor" and world court settle disputes, Or course he would have war if necessary for the country's honor.
 Not a thought that wasn't endorsement of Presi- dent Wilson's many utterances the same subject Another which he had enormously made in pre- -eding speeches. ignored in the face of it's proven falacy That was the issue of the Democratic Admin violation of the principles and requirements Of civil service law. Nothing was doing there Nothing alas. Herrick, Durand and 1itman He even tails in later speeches to remember his long interviews with Fall and Amba asador Henry Lane Wilson.
 The whole Of his speeches at Seattle was direct and evidently enforced recantation.
 Only one issue did he develop with any degree Of forcefulncss That the timeworn issue ol protec- uou. That and that would solve all the domestic and world difficulties before uie people of the United States. whether there peace and only the Republicans understood and could regulate and effect protection.
 With the arin commission of the Democratic party's creation looking him every day the face, it is, Of course not known how long he will adhere to tine tarin issue.
 As he remains consistently silent on such enactment Of Democratic congresses the Federal Boesrye Law tine Trade Commission Law, the Child Labor Law, the Worbmen's Compensation Bill, the Rural Credits Law tn like his silence may be regarded acquescence
 As he did refer President Wilson's positive at ttude in the railroad strike that was threatened and that the Presidents demand prevented
