dent Wilson explained to him and to
others that in reality the Clayton Act
did not do what the union men had
been led to believe it did: that II
merely exempted associations OF
farmers and labor unions from the
prohibition of the Sherman Act, when
they were pursuing "the legitimate
purposes" for which they were Gre
ated. Mr.. Wilson explained, accord
ing TO this authority. that the word
Legitimate" prevented the Clayton Act
from doing what the labor men want
ed. and believed it did do. because
the courts would, in his opinion. hold
that restraint OF trade which inflict-

"Weasel Words" and Sugar.
No one knows President Wilson's
ability to deceive with weasel words"
better than the Louisiana sugar grow
ers-and incidentally. the beet sugar
growers Of the country. When, dur
ing the Baltimore convention, the
Louisiana delegation was asked to
swing its vote to Wilson. the-chairman
said they would vote for Wilson only
if he would play fair" on the tariff
on sugar Accordingly, Mr.. Nc
Combs got Mr. Wilson on the long dis
lance phone and the Louisiana chair
man asked him where ne stood on the
1 duty on sugar. Get a pencil and rake
down my words replied Mr.. WiisoE
"Now, write this down. I will not adj
vocate taking the duty from any
/ LEGITIMATE industry" The Louisi-
ana sugar men were satisfied and
voted for Mr.. Wilson's nomination. II
is not hard to imagine their eonster-
nation when. the Underwood bill be
/ ing under consideration and Mr. Tn
derwood having let the duty on sugar
stand, President Wilson insisted that
sugar be put on the free list. The
chairman of the Louisiana delegation
in Congress. who had been a mem
Der of the delegation to convention,
rushed to the White House. He had
with him the little penciled note made
in the telephone booth at Baltimore

Why Society Women
Wash Their Own Hair

Few realize how many society
women now wash their own hair. not
because it is fad. but because they
wish to obtain the greatest possible
hair beauty and be sure they are not
using anything harmful. The thou
sands who have found that in wash
ing the hair it is never wise TO use a
makeshift. but is always advisable to
use a preparation made for shampoo
ing only. say they get the best re-
suits from simple homemade can
throx mixture. You can enjoy this
the best that is known. for
about three cents a shampoo by get
ting some .canthroX from your drug
gist, and dissOlving a teaspoonful in
a cup of hot water Your shampoo is
now ready. After its use the hair
dries rapidly with uniform color
Dandruff. excess oil and dirt are dis
solved and entirely disappear. Your
hair will be so fuzzy that 1t will look
much heavier than IL is. Its lustre and
softness will also delight you, while
the stimulated scalp gains the health
which insures hair growth.

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL
NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-THE abso-
lutte insincerity of the Democratic
campaign is strikingly illustrated by
the attacks made on Mr.. Hughes, based
on the contention that he decided the
Danbury Hatters' case. This attack is
typical of the effort Of the present Ad-
ministration' at every turn to impose
on the public and take advantage OF
the voters not being informed regard
ing details Of legal cases. Mr.. Hughes
was not a member of the Supreme
Court when the first decision in the
Danbury Hatters' case was rendered.
The case came before that court on
a second appeal after Mr.. Hughes
was a member, on a single question
of law, viz: Is an employer RESPONSE
BILE Tor the acts Of his agents? The
court decided unanimously that an en-
ployer is. and Justice McReynolds,
President Wilson's appointee, voted
lust as did Justice Hughes, and every
other member of the court To have
held the contrary would have estah-
lshed the principle that il a railroad
sets fire to your barn and ii is burned
down. or if its fiagman signals you
that the road is clear and a tram
smashes up your rig and kills your
wife and children. you must sue the
engineer or flagman, but cannot sue
the railroad. Congress passed the
Sherman law, which provided that
when anyone committed an act in re
straint of trade lie must pay damages
amounting to three times the amount
his act had caused A hat manutac
turer who had been boycotted by the
Danbury Hatters' Union, claimed theiI
act was in restraint of trade and had
injured him. The case went to the
Supreme Court while Mr.. Hughes was
still Governor OF New York. The
court decided that the boycott was o
restraint of trade, and tina. if the
firm alleging injury could prove the
alleged damage the union would be
responsible. The case was then tried
before a jury. and the jury decided
that damage had been caused, fixed
the amount, and decided that the
members of the union knew, or had
reasonable opportunity of knowing
what their leaders had done, and
therefore, were responsible Ther
came the appeal on the question o.
whether the members of the unior
were responsible for the acts or tnell
agents. and, as has been said. the Su
preme Court decided unanimously that
all employers are responsible for tn
acts of their employees, whether th'
employees are members of a union o.
stockholders in a railroad or a FAC
tory.
The Clayton Act.
After this decision in the Danbur,
Hatters' case, union labor asked Con
gress to pass a law providing Il At as
sociations of workmen. unions, an
farmers. should not be subject to tn
Sherman laws prohibition of acts il
restraint Of trade. Accordingly, thu
Clayton Act was passed and Presiden
Wilson signed it. The union me-
reioiced, but there was much criticism
Of President Wilson by those who di
not believe the unions should be ex

Sherman law. Then. according to

Wilson Misunderstands.
President Wilson either misunder
stands, or refuses 10 understand, the
position Of the Progressives who are
working shoulder to shoulder with
the Republican to elect Governor
Hughes. Mr.. Wilson is continually
pointing to the fact that there is more
or less variation OF views between
the more extreme Progressives and
the extreme Republicans on economic
subjects. He seems amazed that what
he terms "a conglomeration of con
flicting views should be a unit in
the effort to elect Mr.. Hughes. What
President Wilson fails to understand
is that, whether the views of the Re-
publicans and the former Progressives
differ much or little, they are a unit
on what they regard as Of supreme
importance that is, the radiance of
the country OF wisconsin. They are
unanimously Of the opinion that Will
sOnism is grave menace to Ameri-
canism. In the last analysis. il is the
character Of Woodrow Wilson, which
is so offensive to those who know II
