WILSON, REAL VIEWS ON 1Ason

CONCERNING President Wilson y
frantic efforts on the eve of campaign
to stand strong with the highly paid
railroad employees in whose interests he
recently insisted that congress should
pass the Adamson wage bill under the
guise of an eight-hour bill, which it is
not, it might be pertinent to make some
inquiry as to Mr.. Wilson's real views
on organized labor, as expressed before
he had been honored by the presidency
through election by minority vote.
Woodrow Wilson, candidate, is sud,
denly posing as a great friend of labor
and great believer in labor unions.
Woodrow Wilson, before entering ma
tional politics, held decided views on
the labor question which do not square
with his professions of today. aD
Which Woodrow Wilson will occupy
the White House after the 4th of next
March, if the electorate this fall should
confer upon him another term as presi-
dent? What would be his attitude
toward labor then, when he had no
further favors to ask Of the voters?
The labor views of Woodrow Wilson,
private citizen, are interesting.
On February 25, 1905, at the Peo-
pies Forum in New Rochelle, New
York, Mr.. Wilson said:
Labor unions reward the shiftless
and incompetent at the expense of the
capable and Industrious
At the same meeting he further said:
"The objections ! have to labor
unions is that they drag the highest
man to the level of the lowest. I must
demur with the labor unions when they
say, you must award the dull the
same as you award those with special
gifts.''

CONDEMNS sNAP-JuDahENTs

Charles Evans Hughes does not at
tack the principle of eight hours as a
days work. What he condemns is the
snap judgments where there should be
careful decisions, and he believes that
with the enactment of legislation un-
der compulsion as a regular thing con-
stitutional government would go to
pieces. At Dayton, Ohio, he made clear
to all some things which President Will
sons glib speech had touched but not
Illuminated. 1t was at Dayton he said:
81 protest against any endeavor to
confuse the thought of America by talk
ing about an eight-hour day when moth
ing of the sort has been enacted, moth
ing of the sort has been proposed and
the only thing that was proposed or en-
acted was change of the schedule Of
wages.'

WAR PROSPERITY

NOTHING more effectively demon-
strates the fact that the present pros
perity of the United States is due to
the European war and must terminate
with its end, unless new policies are
adopted, than the figures showing the
extent and character of the export
trade, because the figures are official
are compiled by the Democratic admin.
istration, and about them, therefore.
there can be no controversy. Seven.
teen articles entering into the manufac-
ture of actual munitions, foodstuffs and
various supplies for the great armies of
Europe have constituted this year 6+7
per cent of; the total exports of this
nation. During 1914 these articles con.
stituted 31.7 per cent of the total ex-
ports. During the fiscal year 1914,
when normal conditions prevailed, the
exports of these II articles amounted
to $7s1, ,173,3e0. During the fiscal year
ending June, 80, 1915. with the war in
full blast, the exports of these II arti.
cles amounted to $2,732.203,247. The
gain in the expectation Of these II ar
ticles alone amounted to $1,951 ,029, 1857.
That gain, would pay the wages of over
a million and three-quarters men for a
year at $3.50 day for each working
day. So much for the export trade in
war munitions and supplies. But the
other side OF the slate is equally i'm,
portant. While there has been this tire.
mendous gain in supplies for. the ar.
mics there has been serious falling OF
in other lines. The loss in ordinary ex.
ports-as distinguished from war ex;
ports-fori the fiscal year Of 1915
amounted to $20s, s,a1e,1os. Should the
sudden ending Of the war result In the
return Of war exports to the normal
therefore. the total loss would reach
the startlinr amount Of $2,700 900, ,000
The number of men which such = loss
Of export trade would throw out Of en-
ployment is appalling.

THAT BEER AMENDMENT

WHILE it seems impossible and at
terly incomprehensible that anyone
making claims to decency and good cit
izenshop should be so disloyal to the
state and to the common claims of hui
hanity as to vote for or in any manner
encourage the proposed beer amend
ment by which the United Brewers as
sociation seeks to write lie into the
constitution of the state by having the
voters declare by ballot that "Beer is
Misunderstanding liquor it is just
as well that all should be on their
guard in regard to this proposed law
and swat it as a pestilence. There is
always possibility that we may de-
ceive ourselves in regard to such mat
ters. Because you believe in decency
and are animated by humanitarian mo-
tives don't deceive yourself with the
thought that all others share your
views on the subject. Don't take any
thing for granted. Make certain. The
Grand Junction Sentinel very pertinent
" says:
Let no one be deceived into the
belief that no work is being done
in support of the so-called beer
amendment. Such work is being
done throughout the state. 1t is
being done in Mesa county. In
sidious, covert and cunning is this
work. Quietly and without open
Identification. paid workers are
busy in every large community in
the state.
The plan of giving liquor away
in a most stealthy manner, of at
tempting to cause more intoxica-
tion than usual in order to back up
the contention that we had just as
well at least have liquor manufac-
tured is not the least of the
schemes.
We do not believe there is the
slightest chance in the" world of the
beer amendment carrying. The
Democratic party the Republican
party and many other organizations
have gone on record against it
There isn't one single SOLITARY
good reason to support any conten-
ton that this amendment should be
adopted. 1t should be defeated by
a majority of at least 100000
votes. We hope to see such a ma
iority piled up against it. We have
been doing and will continue to do
all we can against it.
But. let not. the feeling that it
will be defeated anyway keep you
from failing to take the trouble to
vote against it.
Everybody should take hand in
choking off this attempt of the
liuuor traffic leach to get new
foothold in Colorado.

A NOTABLE CONTRAST
GLENlwooD is one of the drye

GLENiWOOD is one of the dryest
towns in the whole dry state of Colo
RADIO. Oak Creek is one of the very
wettest towns in the state, and appar-
emily there s reason. The Oak Creek
Times intimates that the lawless ele-
ment has stand-in with District At
torney Delaney and says that men
whom Delaney prosecuted, little bit,
for various crimes, were the fellows
who peddled his campaign cards prior
to the primary election.
When in Glenwood recently Mr.. De-
laney freely admitted to few of his
friends that bootlegging was carried on
in Oak Creek on a gigantic program and
that the law was spurned continually,
but claimed that he was powerless to
stop the illegal traffic.
This admission comports exactly with
Mr.. Delaney's attitude in Glenwood
last spring when Mayor Thorson called
upon him to explain in detail the new
city and county police officers there
under. Those who attended that meat,
ing will recall that Mr.. Delaney was
cautions to the extreme and, whether
itentionally or otherwise. gave out the
impression that it was very difficult if
not impossible to enforce the law, and
those who were present were led to
believe that he was not in sympathy,
with the new law or very keen in re-
gard to its enforcement
How in contrast with the apathy of
Mr. Delaney on this subject is the
attitude of Judge Noonan who believes
that laws are made to be enforced and
who is willing as public official to
see that they are enforced.
During his recent address at Oak
Creek Governor Carlson turned to Judge
Noonan and asked, "Judge Noonan,
what will you do towards helping the
good people of Oak Creek clean up that
town if you are elected district attor-
ney?" Judge Noonan stood up prompt
lv and replied, "Governor Carlson. III
stop bootlegging in that town if have
to go there to live.'
There's the difference We are quite
content to have our readers contrast
these two men and then say. by their
ballots on November which of the
two they prefer for district attorney
for the coming term.
The Glenwood post., 1916-10-14
NO REASON FOR A CHANGE

IS there Democratic orator or
speaker who can give one reason why
the Republican administration in Colo
RADIO should be abolished? Can a sim
gle opponent of Governor Carlson point
to mistake he has made? Can sim
gle one of those who are shouting for
his defeat name an official act that he
might have done to make his admins
tration a greater success? Why should
we change? Hardly because Judge
Gunter wants the place! And yet, thas
seems to be the only reason so far ad-
vanced. Judge Gunter has contributed
nothing to make Colorado a law-abding
state, other than that he obeyed the
laws. Thousands of others did as much.

Judge Gunter did nothing to make

THOSE INITIATED BILLS

AS will be observed by our readers,
the post is printing the initiated and
referred bills which will go before the
people at the coming election for their
approval or rejection. 1t is the duty
OF all good citizens to inform them
selves upon these measures to the end
that they may cast their votes intelli-
gently when they come to the polls.
We therefore sdvise the careful perusal
of these measures printed elsewhere in
this issue.
The first is the medical bill, passed
by the Last legislature and by the enc
mics of the bill referred by petition to
. vote of the people. There are many
jokers in this measure and we believe
the people win repudiste it at the polls.
The next Ia a so-called civil service
measure which makes it obligatory up
on state and city governments to make
practically all their appointments &C.
cording to civil service rules. The
measure originated with self-consti.
who were not able to warp the present
civil service law to suit their own no.
tions. The people will probably decide
to leave well enough alone.
And next is the greatest joke of all.
Read it. 1t is the poor, bedraggled
orphan known as the tbeer amend
ment' which seeks to have the people
utter lie in the constitution. Con-
ceived in the iniquitous slime of the
clandestinely nursed into a
.squalid existence and then deserted by
both its father and mother on the door.
