I n speaking to the young Democrats who trod down
the grass at Shadow Lawn the other day, President
Wilson asserted that Hughes is elected there will be
a war Am I not right" he asked, that we must
draw the conclusion that if the Republican party is
put in power at the election foreign policy
will be radically changed?" To this answer, un-
hestatingly, YES But that change will not mean
That change will be Of such a nature that war
will be utterly impossble-because the change Of
policy which Hughes will naugurate will serve notice
upon other countries that the United States is back
upon its old footing in international affairs self-re-
specting at home and demanding and compelling re-
spect abroad
'srhere is only one choice as against peace and that
is war" said Wilson. as he pressed his charge
against the Republican party "some Of the support
of that party" he went to say, outspokenly de
clare that they that the certain prospect
Of the of the Republican party is that we shall
be drawn in one form another, into the embroil-
ments OF the European war"
The President doubtless thought that he had found
a new issue here But Hughes beat him to it, July
81 when Mr. Hughes formally accepted his nomination
he exercised that almost uncanny provision which has
enabled him to achieve so many successes before the
people and he answered Woodrow Wilson two months
before the President opened his mouth and put his
foot in it, Hughes then said:
''In dealing with foreign nations, if are to re-
tain our self-respect and protect citizens the first
essential is that when speak it shall be under
stood that we mean what say On February 10

Mr.. Wilson exhibited his martial
side to the favored residents of Ne
braska on Thursday evening. He was
not then too proud to fight. Indeed,
he fairly longed to fight. He coun-
selled his auditors to answer Yes
when they were asked if they were
willing to fight, and he went on;
you are waiting for something
worth fighting for.
"You are not looking for petty
Quarrels, but you are looking about
for that sort OF quarrel within whose
intricacies are written all the texts
OF the rights of man; you are looking
for some cause which will elevate
your spirit, not depress it.
Some cause in which it seems a
glory to shed human blood II It be
necessary, so that all the common
compacts of liberty may be sealed
with the blood OF free men,"
Fortunately, Mr. wilson's official
record affords unimpeachable evil
dence Of what he regards as worth
fighting for" and Of what he cOnsid'
ers petty Quarrels" The refusal OF
the old Indian Huerta to salute the
flag constituted in Mr.. Wilson's Off

S25 900 to recruit them-about $40 per

Here is only one item in the enor-
NOUS outlay for this futile mobiliza-
ton. which when it is over will leave
our military establishment even
weaker than It was before the bubble
of State Guard liberalization was
pricked. Had this $100O0O,0eO been
spent on a proper increase Of the reg
ular army the country would now be
well on the way toward a rational
military reorganization, with a mobile
force in sight large enough to patrol
our Southern border and to give sup
not TO any demands Of a political ma
ture which it may be necessary to
make on Mexico.
The people of the United States are
being taxed at a far higher rate than
ever before to support an army-os-
tensibly, at least-on a peace footing.
But they have today no real army and
no chance of getting one under the
gold-brick. anti-preparedness Hay
law.
The President talks fluently about
having maintained peace with Mexico.
But he has really made war-extrava-
gantly. fruitlessly. hypocritically -
under the guise Of peace. The seizure
and occupation of Vera Cruz were
acts OF war. The invasion and occu-
patton Of Northern Mexico were acts
of war: the American soldiers killed
at Parral and Carrizal were killed as
the result of an open violation OF
Mexican sovereignty.
The peace with Mexico which Mr.
Wilson boasts about is a sham and a
fraud Even the law officers OF the
War Department repudiate the fiction
behind which the President has taken
refuge. The country is paying a
heavy war price for Mr.. Wilson's
"peace"-paying out millions and
getting practically nothing in return
If the President and Mr.. Mccormick
want to claim credit for keeping the
country out of war, le4 them call in
and revise the opinion of the judge
advocate general of the army. Let
them knuckle down once more to Car
ranza and his bandit followers, recall
the Pershing expedition and end the
state of actual war" which now eX-
lists between our Government and the
Mexican Government. To go on cry
ing peace when there is no peace is
mere duplicity and folly.

inarticulate corpuscles of a score OF

Herein, then, service to humanity

however, when the Lusitania was

am therefore Of the opinion that
while war is not recognized as

States and Mexico, the actual
conditions under which the field

The military establishment has been
put on a war basis, so far as Mexico
is concerned. The Government has
incurred an expense of about $780,

their mobilization for service on the

for the, army for the present fiscal
year are 1907, $4,000. an increase OF

what he considers the real issue" of
the Presidential campaign;
"All Americans who desire the
continuance Of peace and prosper
ity Will vote for the reelection Of

wish war should vote for Mr..
Hughes. There can be no mis-
taking this issue. There is only
one alternative Of peace and that
is war;
Mr.. Mccormick was only echOing
one Of Pres. dent Wilson's pet sophis-

policy has pr q that war is
not only the alternative of peace or
peace the only alternative of war.
There is a third choce-and Mr.. Will
son has made it deliberately in all
his dealings with Mexico That choice
is TO conduct war without calling il
war-to disguise war under the sem
blance of peace.
Mr.. Wilson and Mr. Mccormick
deny that we are at war with Mexico
But the War Department, which has
had to supervise the details Of our

tory is much better informed than
they are. The judge advocate general
