FORD FOR WILSON; Ju|LLIARD IS OUT
 FOR HUGHES
One Raised Workmens' Wa ges, Others Agents Evict- X, ed 3,7OO Workmen.

{. Utica. N. r., Oct. 24-Two types of employers are taking an active part in this years Presidential campaign. One is we'll represented by Henry Ford of Detroit; the other by A. D. Iuilliard of New York. @
 Mir. Juilliard was member of the Union League club committee of One Hundred that arranged the Taft Hughes Roosevelt dinner. He is a director in corporations having az gregate resources of nearly two bill ! lion dollars. He is active in a certain sort of philanthropy.
 While MT. Ford was reiterating his Endorsement of the eight-hour( day and working out @ wage increase for employees who already are the high est paid in the world, agents of Nr.

WHAT'S BEHIND
 HUCHES?" ASKS JOHN M. PARKER
Militant Progressive Says He Is Out for Wilson
 and Progress.

New York, Oct. 24.-"The Old Guard placed Justice Hughes in front. God only knows w-Mt's behind"
 That is the way the Grand Old Par ty parade looks to John M. Parker, Progressive candidate for vice-presi- dent, the most resolute and uncompro- missing figure in the wrecked Progress sive party. MT. Parker continues: 'The only chance the Old Guard had to get into power was to place in front of it man whose character and reputation were absolutely im- maculate. The choosing of Justice Hughes by this most dangerous ele- ment in American politics is a tribute to the man itself. I have the highest respect myself for MT. Hughes.
 But I still believe in the Progress sive party, and we Progressives don't care where progress comes from if it only comes. It has come this time from the Wilson administration, and that's why now I am working for President Wilson.

N, Y,MAIL SEES WILSON VICTORY
 IN CONNECTICUT
Says Laboring Men Are Asking "What Can
 Hughes Do for Us."

New York, Oct. 24.--The Evening Mail. which Is supporting Hughes, in announcing the result of a careful canvas of Connecticut by G-staff cor respondent, says that the nominally Republican majority of 10000 in that state threatens to be turned into a Wilson victory. At Democratic head quarters it has been known for weeks that Connecticut would give Wilson 8 large majority.
 The Mail points out that Connecti- cut is "a manufacturing state where the labor vote is in a vast preponder- ence. It continues: Into the home of every laboring man in the state has gone a neat Democratic campaign document containing 8 list of the la bor legislation passed under Pres. Will son, and in New Jersey when he was Governor of that state. The Repub- ncan answer has come in the shape of weighty pamphlets on the tariff is- sue.
 What will Hughes or the Repub- lican party do for us'' is the question wherever labor is employed--and that means in every town and city of the state. So far there has been no an- swer from the men on the Republican side of the fence.
 "J. Henry Roraback. chairman of the Republican State Central Commit tee, an,- old style state Nvoss of the Boies Penrose stamp, is running the Hughes campaign in the state. And that is not helping matters any. He was a member of the famous creden- tials committee which threw out the Roosevelt delegates in the Chicago convention of 1912, and Connecticut Progressives are not forgetting that fact in @ hurry"

GRENADE THROWING IS
 POPULAR SPORT SINCE WAR AFFLICTED FRANCE

Paris. Oct. 24-Throwing the gren- ade is becoming a popular form of sport in France. A special chevron has recently been designated to be worn on the arm of the best grenade ,thrower in each company. Besides the army, the sporting clubs have taken up grenade throwing, and gren- ade matches now take the place of throwing the hammer, the discuss, etc.
 It is claimed that some of the sol- diers have thrown a grenade 253 feet, but this is challenged by the sporting experts on the ground that the throw was not made before a regular organization and was a free- arm throw. According to the regu1a- tions, a grenade cannot be thrown straight from the shoulder, like a baseball. but is given swinging

 T. s. Jackson during one of his pulp lie lectures at Hindle's, said:
 There is not a single portion of the body not benefited by the healthful work of Wilderbs Gull extract) i, which begins it's action by assisting the digestive and assimilative organs to do their work, thereby enriching the blood and strengthening the whole body. Next it mixes with the food and helps the stomach to thoroughly digest it, permitting the assimilable products to be converted into blood, bone and muscle.
