More than l5,O0O have sent in their names from all parts of the country, every state being represented except Idaho Anerlcan citizens resident in the canal zone, Cuba, Porto Rico, Mexico. Alaska and even France and the Philippines are included.
 Those who have actually attended are the most ardent advocates of these camps They say that the work is hard, but extremely interesting, and so carefully graduated that a man in soft physical condition has ample opportunity 10 get hardened up be- fore the hike, which comes the last week of the four The food, while not elaborate. is good and sufficient. the camp is sanitary, and all the ar engagements make for good health. Plattsburgers point out that here is an excellent opportunity for a man to give his vacation to his country ard yet have the most useful vacation he ever enjoyed. They also point out that there is nothing miIitaristic in the scheme of things, and MT. Bryan himself could go with a clear con science, since there is no formal obli- gatiOn of service attached to the en- rollment. But they believe that the experience would be a decided eye opener to him as it is to all who at tend.
 New Haven county leads the state with about 200. Hartford county is second with over 100, Fairfield a close third with over so, and Litchtield fourth with over 6O

Dangerous to "SWop"

One Of these things that the recent
Republican primaries emphasized in
various ways was that Missouri is a Re
publican State and that campaigns
must hereafter be conducted fer victory
for the party instead Of Tor any merely
personal or selfish interest. The Re-
publicans now have a strong ticket and
the principal business Of the party or
gaDizllion must be TO elect it by the
largest majority possible. To this end
there should be no change in the party
management except where such change
is urgently necessary to promote the
purpose of victory. This is particular
ly true OF the State Committees cam
paign organization. A change in the
State campaign management now
would mean that new organization
would have to begin all over again and
prepare for and make the greatest cam
paign in the history Of Missouri in
about six weeks, which would be the
amount Of time left after the new
committee could get organized,
Those who know all that is involved
know that this can't be done efficient
ly.
The Democratic Legislature that passed
the State primary law made the primary
election date late so as to iorestall Re-
publican organization in time Tor an
campaign. The position Of
State Chairman is not 10 be filled in
the interest OF the whole ticket and
the party. 1t was Lincoln who said
that it was poor policy TO swop horses
in the middle Of the stream" Our
horses are alright, so let's not take the
risk Of swopping.

Here's a Hot One

The wife Of a western hardware deal
er answered her door bell and found a
peddler on the front porch.
He was selling the greatest potato
parer ever invented" and he gave a
demonstration that convinced her at

When the husband came home, she
showed him her bargain, and told him
what she paid for it. Imagine her
CONSERVATION when ne said:
Il have gross Of these down in
the store, and sell them for 10 cents

The woman always has the last word
and hers was to the point: Then, for
goodness sake, why don't you let peo
pie know what you have for sale.1"

Roosevelt on Wilson and Hughes

Mr.. Wilson has been tried and
found wanting. His party, because
OF its devotion 10 the outworn
theory Of State rights, and because oi
its reliance upon purely sectional sup
port stands against the spirit if far
sighted nationalism which is essential
il we are 10 deal Adequately with our
gravest social and industrial problems.
Mr.. Wilson and his party have in
actual practice lamentably failed 10
safeguard the interest aud honor Of the
United States. They have brough! US
TO impotence abroad and division and
weakness at home. They have ac-
customed US to see the highest and
most responsible Offices Of Govern
ment filed by incompetent men ap'
pointed only for reasons Of partisan
politics. They have dulled the moral
sense Of the people. They have
taught US that peace, the peace oi
cowardice and dishonor and indifference
to the welfare al others. is TO be pu,
above righteousness, above The stern
and uLfinching performance Of duty,
whether the duty is pleasant or un-
pleasant. Yet in Mexico they have
failed 10 secure the peace which they
thus sought and they have failed in
spite Il the most ample opportunity
and most ample warning to prepare in
any real fashion 10 meet the crisi!
which their own policy invited. They
have taught US to put safety first,
safety before honor and duty; to pu
that lnaterialism which expresses itsel
in mere money making and in the fat

things above all the high and fine in
sIiucts oi the soul. They have taugh

Mr.. Hughes on Mexico

Mr.. Hughes placed fitting empha-
sis on two facts in Mr.. Wilson'S Mexi'
can policy which illustrate both its in
sincerity and iutility. Quoting that
member Of the cabinet who recently
confessed that the Vera Cruz expedition
was not TO force Huerta 10 salute the
flag" but to show Mexico that Huer-
ia must CO." he placed responsibility
for that inglorious expedition where it
belongs. And in recalling the fact
during this invasion nf Mexico to over.
turn the only government that country
had, representatives Of European gov
ernments had to give our citizens at
Tampico protection which our county
would not extend, he proves that nat
ional humiliation, in the failure Of the
expedition 10 serve its ostensible pur
pose and in its failure to protect its
own nationals against the fury among
the Mexicans by that failing attempt,
is the net results to the United States
Of the presidents use Of the army and
navy TO serve his prejudiceS against
the individual"
The Globe Democrat had repeatedly
charged, before the confession quoted
by Mr.. Hughes was made, that the OBJ
ject Of the expedition to Vera Cruz
was never any other than the overthrow
OF the only authority in Mexico then
discharging any Of TIE functions Of
government in that country, which was
according all foreigners a degree Of
protection, and with the overthrow Of
which real chaos in Mexico began.
The Republican candidate for presi-
not less unerring in citing the letter
OF Secretary Lansing, showing conclu-
sively that outlawry and banditry great
iy increased following the Huerta over.
throw, aud that the number OF Amer
leans killed, imprisoned or despoiled
in the country was many times greater
than the number who suffered under
the strong defscto government Mr..
Wilson used our army and navy to end.
The facts are indispu able, the fig
ures unansweEable. A natural devel'
opment in any country, following the
overthrow Of a deiacto government by
a foreign force, must be decentralization
and chaos, during a period, long Or
short, before a lawful government can
be set up in place Of that deposed.
Mr.. Wilson knowing the wretched
condition Of the Mexican people, took
a course which he should have known
would increase their suferings in or.
der to punish an individual who had
declined to allow this country to sup
ervise and dictate the terms Of a Mex
ican election. Globe Democrat.

US TO accept adroit elecution as a sub
stitute for straightforward and efficient
action. They have raised indecision,
hesitancy, and vacillation into a set,
tied governmental policy.
Mr. Hughes has shown in his career
the instinct Of efficiency which will
guarantee, that under him, the Govern
ment will once more work with vigor
and force. He possesses that habit Of
straightforward thinking which means
that his words will be correlated with
his deeds and translated into facts.
His past career is the warrant for our
belief that he will be the uniaItering
opponent OF that system Of invisible
government which finds expression in
tha domination Of the party boss and
party machine. His past career is a
guaranty that what he says before
election will be made goood By his
acts after election. Morally, his pub
lie record shows him TO be a man Of
unbending integrity; intellectually it
shows him to be a man Of original and
trained ability. We have the alternat'
i've oi continuing in Office an admins.
tration that has proved a lamentable
failure or putting into Office an admin
iStration which we have every reason
to believe will function with efficiency
Tor the interest and honor OF all our
people. I earnestly bespeak from my
fellow Progressives their ungrudging
support Of Mr.. Hughes"

The Senatorial NOMINEES

The sweeping victory Of Walter S.
Dicky in the senat orial primary affords
ample proof that he is an unusual or.
ganizer, one who's Judgment is not i'm.
paired BY his personal candidacy. Mr..
Dickey is famous as winner. His
rise in the business world from a minor
salaried position 10 the ownership Of an
establishment without an equal in its
line, is evidence Of his personal ability
and energy as we'll as an example Of
Americas wonderful opportunities.
But Mr., Dickcy has not been so en-.
crossed in his personal business as to
neglect public duties. Accepting
the principles Of the Republican party,
without bias Of heredity, as a first voter,
he has been always zelous in promoting
their triumph. He has served his
party in many relations, always 10y
ally and always successfully. His re.
cord for never having lost fight was
responsible for his selection as chair.
man Of the Republican State Commit
tee in 1908, That record gained new
luster by his magnificent campaign
which elected Hadley as governor and
put the electoral vote in the Republi-
can column. When he entered the
senatorial race, it was a ioregone con-
clusion that he would win the nomi.
nation, il he could campaign as effect
lively for himself as he had always cam.
paigned for others. Some Of the coun.
try's greatest leaders have failed under
such test, but Mr.. Dickey has dem
onstrated that he has the admirable
poise necessary to such ieat.
The people Of Missouri will have the
opportunity in November to elect
senator who will at once take the place
in the councils Of the nation. He has
a knowledge Of the questions which
will be most vital in the process Of
industrial readius,ment the end Of the
war will necessitate. He has studied
rail and water transportation problems.
He is a good road enthusiast. He
understands the details Of commerce.
He knows the economic needs Of Mis-.
souri. Although he made his first ex.
temporaneous speech only a year ago,
aud has none Of the oratorial tricks that
captive the gallery, he thinks we'll on
his feet andexpresses himselfin clear,
forceIul English. But his greatest
strenth in theSenate would be his pow
er TO convince his colleag ues, man to
man. The most effective senators have
been oi this type. The professional 70.
ators in that body are merely tolerated by
the other senators. But the diligen,,
earnest, level-headed, patriotic senator,
who is seeking the good oi his cousd-
tuents instead Of personal notoriety, Is
never without real influence. The Re.
publicans oi Missouri are fortunate in
being able to present such candidate

Der. Last year the president wrote
letters into Kentucky and succeeded in
