Hughes is a man of wisdom, courage
and action; his deeds have been con-
sistent with his words; as Governor
of New York he fulfilled his promises !;
he acted with judgment, foresight and
vigor; he feared no party, no faction,
no special interest; he safeguarded
the rights of all persons; he did not
yield to party exigency, nor truckle to
popular favor; he strove for justice
and righteousness
AS Justice of the Supreme Court
he steadfastly stood for human rights,
for popular government based upon
reason, for the wise construction of the
Constitution which makes that instru-
ment meet the needs of our people as O
nation, and guarantees to the Congress
the powers to solve our vital, social
and industrial problems.
He is bound by no ties of clSss, fac
ton or section; he believes that the
government should be administered by

competent men and women for the
benefit of all people, not by party ia
vorites for the benefit of themselves
and their party; he is in sympathy
with the best progressive thousnt of
our people; he believes that women
should be guaranteed through the Fed
eral Constitution equal political rights
and duties with men; and above all,
he stands for the absolute protection
men and children throughout the
world.
Our opponents object to criticism
of Wilson. They forget that the ad-
ministration in power must necessar-
lily be on the defensive. 1t is not the
criticism that hurts, but the truth and
justice of the criticism.
Wilson is not worthy of re-elecuon.
Compare his promises with his acts;
his opinions when a teacher not in
politics with the opinions he now eX-
presses. A man should change his
opinion when he finds himself in error
but it is most unfortunate if he makes
the change when he is a candidate for
office and when the change seems pop
ular.
He assailed a protective tariff and a
tariff commission; yet he approved a

The Wilson doctrine of Too proud
to fight" has bred weakness, coward
ice and disloyalty among the people
% lis II preached unpreparedness un-
til forced by an aroused public opinion
to change Then in haste he forced the
enactment of the Hay bill, which mill
tary experts and the thousands of ma
tional guardsmen now on the border
know is a poor makeshift for real
preparedness.
People should not be fooled by the
catch phrase Wilson has kept us out

ent conditions is not war, but honor
able peace based upon the absolute
protection of the lives of our citizens
on sea and land. In this way only can
we gain the respect of other nations,

serve It,
Had Germany believed that Wilson

Had Mexico believed that Wilson
really intended to protect Americans

men at home approve such a record ?
Had Wilson shown strength and force
in the beginning, Mexico would have
feared to commit such outrages. His
weakness provoked attack and in
duced contempt.
Wilson preached arbitration-forced
arbitration treaties through the SEN
ate when there was nothing particular
to arbitrate, but when the vital prin-
ciple of arbitration was assailed in the
railway controversy, he abjectly aban-
doned it. That measure attempts to
fix wages for a special class without
investigation of facts, and imposes up
on the farmers, manufacturers and the
travelling public an additional cost for
service without a determination of it's
wisdom or justice.
Wilson wanted votes, not facts
Hughes dares stand for principle;
he wants facts upon which to wisely
base action and is not frightened by
threats.

one dreaded disease that science has

being a constitutional disease, requires
a constitutional treatment. Halls Ca

highly sectional tariff, and now en-
dorses a tariff commission. He was
an ardent advocate of the merit sys-
tenn; yet he has as President made
the most serious inroads upon the
merit system made by any President
in the last twenty-five years. He talk
ed about efficiency, but appointed in
competent men to high office. The
people of Chicago ought not to forget
the actions of the Federal officials
who pretend to investigate the East
land disaster.
He promised that a Democratic tariff
and banking act would lift the burden
from the people and reduce the cost OF
living. He found his tariff failed tC
yield sufficient revenue and is nov
strangely silent on the steadily in.
creasing cost of living.
He denounced the efforts of those
who would protect women and chill
dren by Federal laws against exploita-
ton in industry, claiming that the
states alone could and should deal
with those problems. He now claims
credit for the Federal Child Labor
Law. Unfortunately, it is a protective
law in name only. 1t is a mere pre-
tense, a scheme to catch the unthink-
ing votes. No eXploiter of child life
need fear that law.

With the new Mexican army, and be-
ing made part of it as rapidly as the
stubborn Carranza can bring them in,
are 10000 women who have offered
their services to their nation, not as
nurses, not as home guards, but as
fighters in the battle front, side by
side with their men, the woman of the
upper classes with her husband, the
pelada who cannot afford marriage
with the unwed father of her children

OLD TIME SUNDAY LAWS.
Rigid Rules For Harvard Students Two
Centuries Ago.


In "The Story of Harvard Mr.. Ar
thur Stanwood Pier gives an account
of the strict regulations formerly set
down for the guidance of the Harvard
undergraduates by the president and
the fellows of the corporation. The
old laws, Intended to enforce upon the
undergraduates n more religious and
studlous life, would be considered re-
pressive and tyrunnical today.
"All the scholars shall at sunset in
the evening preceding the Lords day
retire to their chambers and not I'M
necessarily leave them, and all disor-
der on said evening shall be punished
as violations of the Sabbath are. ~
And whosoever shall profane said day
the Sabbath-by unnecessary busi-
ness or visiting, walking in the COM
mons or in the streets or fields, in the
town of Cambridge, or by any sort of
diversion before sunset or that in the
evening of the Lords day shall behave
himself disorderly or in any way un-
becoming the season, shall be fined not
exceeding 10 shillings.
"That students may furnish them
selves with useful learning, they shall
keep in their respective chambers and
diligently follow their studies, except
half an hour at breakfast, at dinner
for from Il to 2 and after evening
prayers till after 8 Of the clock. To
that end the tutors shall frequently
visit their chambers after 0 O'clock in
the evening and at other studying
times, to quicken them to their busi-
ness"
1t does not seem that under such q
system Of vigilance and visitation the
students could fall into very dissolute
ways. But a few years later George
Whitefield, the famous evangelist who
so stirred up New England, visited
Harvard college and expressed his dis
pleasure at the dissipated habits Of
the young men. He declared condi-
tions at oxford were no worse, a
charge so damaging that it greatly dis
turbed and incensed the college au-
thorities.

The teeth serve varied purposes.
The four front teeth, or incisors, are
chisel-shaped in order that they may
cut or bite. This shape is also helpful
in enunciation. The eye teeth be-
hind the incisors, are better fitted for
heavier cutting or biting than the
front ones. They are a transition
form between the incisors and the
larger teeth, which stand next and
which break the food into small bits
before it is ground and pulverized by
the solid back teeth.

forms small forests on the arid allu-

MIXED 1T WITH MYSTERY.
But the Secret of Portland Cement Was
Solved by a Busybody.

solved ny 6uSypody.
Portland cement may be defined as a
product made by burning limestone and
clay, which have been mixed so as to
form n certain composition, and grind
ing the resulting "clinker' to powder.
In the early days much mystery sur
rounded the manufacture OF Portland
cement when it was first discovered by
bricklayer Of Leeds, England. He
found that by mixing water with
compound OF Thames chalk and Med
way mud he could compound an artifi-
cial water cement and determined that
no one should discover his secret.
When employed in manufacturing his
raw mixture he is said to have attired
himself in long black gown and the
pointed hat of the mystic and to have
recited mysterious incantations during
his operations.
But q curious onlooker who deter
mined to ascertain his ingredients and
methods had sample analyzed by Il
chemist, whose result showed 80 per
cent phosphate of lime. Thinking that
he had solved the secret, he began to
calcine all the bones he could gather up
in the village, much TO the discomfort
and objections of his neighbors, who
finally induced him to desist Follow
ing, however, the old system of cut
and-try, he finally solved the problem
and eventually produced cement
equal to that of the original COM
FOUNDER, ana the great industry began
to thrive at once.
In this country the Portland cement
industry had its beginnings in the Le
high valley in Pennsylvania, chiefly in
Lehigh and Northampton counties,
where John w. Eckert, a chemist, dis
covered that there occurred a lime
stone composed of approximately the
correct ingredients necessary for the
manufacture Of Portland cement
