George AIDE Declares for Hughes

This year am going to vote for
Charles Evans Hughes as against
woodrow Wilson for a good many
reasons. -Four years ago l was a Pro-
gressive. 1t is true that my enthus-
iasm for some OF the planks in the
Progressive platform was so moder-
ate that / had no trouble in controll-
ing it. was not scared to death by
the proposals made in the platform,
as some OF our Republican friends
seemed to be. but / had my reason
able doubts.
/ liked the spirit and makeup and
leadership Of the Progressive party,
and tried to be loyal to the organl-
zation two years ago, but il was evil
dent, even then, that the very struct-
ure of the party was beginning to
crumble. The Progressive party had
to keep growing or go out Of bust
ness. The logic Of events restored
the Republican party to its time-hon-
ored place as principal corrector OF

Colonel Roosevelt did the sensible
and patriotic thing last January when
he indicated that he was ready to
jump in and support any good Repub-
lican who could defeat Wilson.
The Colonel saw what was wrong
up at Washington from the very start.
Mr.. Wilson means TO be sincere. and
he wants TO do what is right. but he
was brought up on a college campus.
He was accustomed. for years, 10 be
dogmatic and oracular before a lot
OF college boys who couldn't talk

He is a perfectly nice man. who

When I recall what has happened

years, l pity all the good men who
are sitting around benumbed by re-
peated insults and bewildered to learn
that their native land is regarded by
the rest Of the world as a joke, but

Democratic effort TO put the platform
Of 1912 into effect can any voter Ia
1916 ignore the following array OF cold
and icy facts?
The Democrats said in 1912 that
they would reduce the cost Of living.
All necessities and staples are now
higher than ever before We do not
blame the Democrats for high prices,
We do blame them for continually
making idle promises.
For instance. how about the def
mite promise to enforce economy and
trim down appropriations? They have
been in the pork barrel up to their
elbows.
The Democrats tinkered the tariff
and hard times followed. The pre-
ent abnormal prosperity has resulted
from a flood Of European war orders.
The war will end in 1917 or 1918.
Europe, desperately in need OF monev,
will make an unprecedented fight for
foreign trade The United States will
need a protective tariff as never be-
fore. Does any fair-minded voter,
with a memory a foot long believe wd
