pv EDWARD HEATING
Congressman from the Third Con-
gressional District.o

Colonel Roosevelt, acting as chief
.rokesman for Justice Hughes, is
.ntting clean-cut issue before the
roters of the country.
There is no dodging, no evasion,
-, for as the Colonel is concerned
NE DECLARES THAT THE UNI
TIED STATES SHOULD HAVE
CONE TO WAR WITH GERMANY
WHEN THE LuSITANIA WAS
GENT TO THE BOTTOM OF THE
SEA.
The President was a coward and
q noltroon when he adjusted that af-
fair by negotiation rather than by
force of arms, is the position taken
by the Colonel.
AND JUSTICE HUGHES SAYS
HE ENDORSES EVERYTHING MIR
ROOSEVELT SAYS.
wonder how many of the mothers
and fathers of Colorado believe that
their boys should have been ordered
into the trenches of Europe because
of the Lusitania incident?
President Wilson induced Kaiser
wilhelm to abandon his undersea
warfare without firing shot. What
more could Colonel Roosevelt have
accomplished by sending million
American young men into the armies
of England and France?
That's a plain question. Every
voter should be able to supply the
answer.
The Monte Vista journal., 1916-10-14
PEOPLE WITH WILSON

The fact is that ninety per cent of
the people of this country heartily
approve President Wilson's course
in keeping this country out of war.
The sentiment is just as strong
among the Republicans and Progress
sives as among Democrats.
The more Hughes and Roosevelt
denounce the presidents foreign pol
icy the more certain it becomes that
Wilson'S victory in November will be
landslide.
The Democrats have no disposi-
ton to avoid the issue. Rather they
welcome it. We unreservedly in
dorse what Wilson did, and we pro-
mise the people that if we are given
a renewed lease of power the coun-
try will continue to enjoy peace and
prosperity.

WHAT THE PRESIDENT ACTUALLY
DID TO AVERT STRIKE DISASTER

Before consulted with them (the railway execu-
tves and the representatives Of the employes) mace
myself acquainted with the points at controversy
The first thing told both sides was that STOOD
for the eighthour day. We believe in the eght-hour
day because does better work within eight hours
than he does in extended day said to the rail-,
road executives: you asking that the result OF
the eghthour day be predicted and the prediction De
arbitrated The reasonable thing do is to grant the
eight-hour day because the men demand 1t, out
because it is right and let get authority from Oon-
gress appoint commission to observe the resuits
and report in order that justice may be done the ra
roads in respect of the cost of the experiment
That the proposal which they rejected ano
which Congress put into law, proposal which mace
to them before conferred with it, which urged upon
them at every conference, and which when the one
side rejected the other accepted went to congress
and asked Congress enact. did not ask ether soe
whether 1t suited them and requested my frends IN
Congress ask either side whether it suited them
learned before the controversy began that the Wnoie
temper Of the legislative body was IN favor OF inc
eight-hour day.
In the House of Representatives the plan was
passed. was sanctioned, by vote which included sev-
enty Republicans against ffty-four Republicans IN
the Senate the Republican members held conference
in which they determined put obstacle IN the way
of the passage of the bill Now, this was because the
proposal was reasonable and was based upon right

EIGHT HOUR ISSUE

Our Republican friends are not
satisfied with berating Wilson- for
Keeping us at peace with other coun-
tries but they denounce him for pre-
serving peace here at home.
II Justice Hughes speeches mean
anything, then he intends to ask
Congress to repeal the Adamson
elght-hour day for railroad employees
and thus plunge the nation into an
industrial conflict of unknown pro-
portions.
Wilson and a Democratic Congress

IN THE BEST INTERESTS OF The MASSES

prevented nationwide railroad
strike and thus saved the farmers
and busienss men of this country
countless millions of dollars, besides
securing for the men who operate the
freight trains such a work day rs is
sanctioned by civilized society.
We did this by doing the only
thing which would have produced
the desired result. OF course, we
could have refused to interfere. Then
the men would have struck. Busi-
ness paralysis would have followed
There would have been the usual
clashes between the strikers and the
men who were employed to take
their places. The militia would pro-
badly have been called out in some
states. Bloodshed might have re-
suited. In any event, the wheels of
industry would have stopped, hard
times would have been substituted
for the present unparalleled prosper
ity, and Americas condition would
have been little better than Europe.
A Question of Common Sense
That's the miserable condition to
which Justice Hughes assures us he
would have reduced this country had
he been in Woodrow Wilson's place.
In the name of common sense are
the American people going to seri-
ously consider such a man as a pres
idential possibility when they have
chance to select Woodrow Wilson?
Oh, but Justice Hughes says, that
in passing the eight hour bill we sac
rificed great principle. What prin-
ciple Arbitration?
Why the president and the Con-
gress of the United States acted as
arbitrators in this case, and they de-
cided to grant part of the workers
demands. The men wanted the
eight hour day and time and one half
for overtime. We gave them the
eight hour day and refused the over
time.
But, Justice Hughes intimates, we
did not make an investigation to de-
termine whether the railroads could
stand the increased expense.
What arrant nonsenset Every
member of Congress knew that for
the past year just closed the rail
roads net earnings showed an in
crease of S,O0O,OOOi The presi-
dent had at his disposal all the in
formation gathered by the Interstate
Commerce Commission through the
years.
What further information could
the president or Congress desire or
secure?
Surely with such a fabulous in
crease in their net earnings the rail
roads can afford TO give their engi-
neers, conductors, firemen, tele-
graphers, etc, an eight hour day!
That was the verdict of president
Wilson and a Democratic Congress
and We still insist that We acted in
the best interests of all the people
of this country.

SKIM MILK FAVORED
FOR THE DAIRY CALF
Skill and Patience Required in
Raising Heifers to Perpetu-
ate the Dairy Herd.

In order to perpetuate the dairy
herd 1t is necessary to raise the heifer
calves. This appears at first to be a
very simple matter, but herdsmen
have found that 1t demands both skill
and patience.
Vigor and thrift are needed in the
young animal, because upon 1t is to be
placed the responsibility of producing
a large and economical flow of milk,
and of contributing to the reproduc-
ton Of the herd.
It is entirely out Of the question to
raise the dairy calf ON whole milk
alone, because Of the cost. There are
other good ways in which the same
result can be gained. Various substi-
tutes for milk have met with more or
less success. but It is difficult to dis
pense with natures own food.
Skim milk for calves has many ad-
vantages. True, there are some dis
advantages, but these can be elimin-
ated by careful feeding. A herdsman
must know his calves

PAY ATTENTION TO
THE HORSES TEETH
Poor Economy to Feed Animal All
He Can Eat if He Cannot
Masticate His Food.

(By II. 8. EAKINs. Colorado Agricui-
tural College, Fort Collins, Colo.)
There are many different kinds Of
collie In the horse and impaction collie
Is one of the most fatal. Impaction
collie is caused by improperly masti-
Gated food resulting from bad teeth.
A horse is said to be as old as his
teeth.
The period Of usefulness of horse
and in many cases Of his life-may
be prolonged several years by proper
attention to his teeth. The food that
a horse eats is not cooked for him
and his grinders must be in almost
perfect condition. otherwise he be-
comes q hard keeper. The teeth
should be given attention as often as
once a year. 1t is poor economy to
feed horse all he will eat and still
have him in poor condition and ca.
pable Of giving only mediocre serv-
ice in return.
Be merciful to your horse by not
neglecting his teeth. He is doing the
best he can for you.
