A REPUBLICAN BOOMERANG.

Nothing so forcibly reveals the des-
perate situation at the Republican Ma
tlonal Campaign Headquarters as their
attempt to discredit President Wilson's
Mexican policy by Movie" picture
directed by pardoned convict whose
idea of q thrill" is scene showing
nuns being ravished and whose con-
ceptiOn of patriotism is the President
asleep at his desk.
Put after all the principal is respon-
sible for this agent. Hal Reid was on
1y trying to earn the $4,000 appropriate
ed by the Republican National Com
1nittee for Il film which now stinks so
loud they don't want to get within
smelling distance of it. And they ex-
cuse themselves by saying they never
knew it would be so rotten! The point
is this--it wasn't too rotten if they
could get away with it. They were
caught in the act of trying to 'put it
over" They were caught in the act
of trying to deny responsibility for 1t.
Does anyone believe that Hal Reid
went ahead with the faxed film before
he had had his scenario O. KID by
someone in authority at Republican
Headquarters? Everett Colby's in
dorsement, Its a corker," is sufficient
proof of this.
That it was in execrable taste or
even ACKNOWLEDGMENT was that to
this crowd which has nothing to spend
but money! The whole sOrdid affair
lis a fit parallel to the Rum, Romanism
land Rebellion campaign which proved
such a boomerang to the parties that
started it.
What can you expect Of a party
which campaigns on abuse, vilifica-
tion, SANDER, innuendO, and lies? We
agree with the Brooklyn Eagle in won
dering eff there was anything in this
film that was not more than suggested
Inv Col. Roosevelt in his many attacks
lupon the Presidents Mexican policy!
He has proclaimed President Wilson
responsible for the conditions that he
described. Other have done the
same. In view Of this, why should the
p,aywright be blamed for adapting the
,noterial to his medium? Can it be
that the vilifiers of the President had
ITO see these things on the screen be-
fore realizing how truly despicable

peoples?
rhe exposure of the character of

presidents because his voice, during
all those burdened years, has been the
clear, old-time voice of Amerisa-the
voice that to some of us had seemed
muted and overborne by class hatreds
and racial hatfeds, and the snarling
scramble for dividends.
However the coming election may
turn, the pages of American history
which President Wilson has written
these past four years will be forever
illumined with the white light of stars,
and our children and grandchildren
will indeed have cause to thank Goo
for Woodrow Wilson.

.ITALY'S DECLARATION
RECEIVED CALMLY,

BERLIN, Aug. 2S.-Although
Italys declaration of war against
Germany was absolutely unhearalded
and came as a complete surprise, it
failed to cause the slightest ripple OF
excitement in Berlin. The announce
ment was made public Sunday after
noon in the customary extra editions
of the Sunday newspapers which
give the official war reports. Idle
crowds read the declaration undem-
onstratlvely and then continued the
usual Sunday stroll.
The official Norddeutsche Allgeme-
inc zeltung sounds the keynote of
press comment. taking the position
that Italy's formal declaration of war
will have but little effect in view of
existing conditions.
All the editorials were written
prior to the receipt OF information
regarding Roumania's declaration OF
war on Austria-Hungary.
