THE PUBLIC FORUM
THE CANDIDATESs-Please give
us a list Of those whom you deem the
most fitting to represent us at the
coming election.
There may be many Of your read
ers who have time to dig this out for
themselves. There are many of us
who have neither the time nor inclin-
alton, yet who have the intelligence
to appreciate your ability and integ-
rity. We believe it to be a most high
and cOmmendable Office for you to
give US your advice in this matter.
There are really few of us who have
either the time or opportunity to do
this justice even though we have the
character. - G. A. Roth, ATS N.
SPauIding Ay.
Cochran's AnsWer.-For many of
the offices 1 don't know any of
the rival candidates. In general 1
couldn't recommend any candidate
merely because he happened to be
Democrat, RepUb1can or SOCIALIST.
For president the choice is between
Wilson and Hughes. 1 prefer Wilson
as the better man for the country,
for all honest business and for all
workers who want social and indus
trial justice. Comparing their rec
ords and the influences back of them,
I prefer Dunno to LOWden. LOwden

WILSON, DUNNE AND HOYNE.-

WILSON, dunno AND HOYNE.-
I am delighted at the privilege of ex-
pressing my gratitude to you. Your
paper is indeed solving that much
soUght-after problem of demonstrating
minds and opinions. We should give
a good valid reason for our opinions,
be they ever so minor. My opinion
of Mr.. Wilson is that he has powerful
attainments. He is as brave as a
lion and as meek as a lamb. He
went personally before our congress
and our senate and forced even his
opponents to agree that he was right.
He had laws passed-read them. If
YOU are selfish and feel that laws
should be passed only for a favored
few, then don't vote for President
Wilson.
NV Opinion of Gov. Dunne.-I
knew him as a judge, as mayor and
as a governor, and I know that his
heart and his hand are in the right
place for he that is compelled to toll
for his daily bread. The deep water
way and a municipal electric plant is
the first wedge that will start to burst
asunder that shackle Of iron that has
tied us to the service Of the trusts
as my opponent titals them. With
cheap electric power we that build
machines for some one else could
build them for ourselves. Friends
save us from railroad oppression.
One word-coal at the mines in ViT-
ginia is selling for $1.55 a ton, at
Chicago same coal costs S7.75. Would

PROTECTIVE LEAGUE
 IS BEING ORGANILEL
Associated press)

BERLIN, Nov. 22.-Adviccs recciv- ed here from Stockholm are to the effect that a league of citizens of foreign neutral nations is being or ganized in Sweden for the purpose of assisting the downtrodden people of Russia. The people who are or ganlZng are of nOnRusSian blood and it therefore cannot be said tha, they have national or personal mo tives. The object of the organizd- ton, it is understood, will be to pro. test to Premier Asquith, of Eng land, on the manner in which tho people of interior Russia are being treated by the Russian goyernmen
 It is asserted that many millions of Films, LithIan:ans, wh te RHs 8ians, Jews, Ub aniuns, Gcorgians CaIcasiana, Tartars and other pee plos of central Asia have been ter ribly maltreated by the Russian gov ernment In fact their sufferings are described as being worse th"n those of the Armen;ans under Turk ish rule.
 The oppre scd people have been evicted, starved footed and mur- dered, according to the report re- ceived here. Pillage and rapino have reigned supreme, It is stated that the chief oppression is in those districts where the men have re fusd to join the Russian armies.
