WILSON FINDS NOTHING I
OF CAMPAIGN INTEREST
Which He Says, in a Previous
Breath, is Most Singular,
Even Unprecedented.


LONG BRANCH. N. j., Sept, 30
In vigorous denunclation Of the Re-
publican party, President Wilson to-
day told delegation or young DEM

In November is that we shall be
drawn in one form or another into the
embroIlments Of the European war, =
and that 'the force OF the United
States will be used to produce in
Mexico the kind Of law and order

The president made his FIRST out
and out political speech of the CAM
paign from the porch at Shadow
Lawn.
Urged on by the enthusiastic
cheers and waving banners Of several
thousand young men, he assailed the
Republican party and laid down the
Issues on which he believes the cani-
paign should have been fought.
"Am l not right chat we must
draw the conclusion that II the Re-
publican party Is put into power ati
the next election our foreign policy

that Is war"

speaking 10 thousands of persons
who were packed In a cold circus
tent here this afternoon, Theodore
Roosevelt assailed the administration
record Of President Wilson and urged
the election OF Charles =. Hughes.
When tho former president entered

speech on behalf of the Republican
candidate for the presidency, he was
given wild ovation.
Climbing on table on the speak

almost entirely to an attack on Pres

policies and the latter's support or

Roosevelt declared that President

of vacillation.

ONE POET OUT OF PLACE.
When Wordsworth, In Borrowed FIN
ery, Attended a Royal Function.

cry, Attended Royal Function.
1t is not easy To imagine WORDS
worth, the gentle poet. i'll the midst or
the glittering artificialities of court life
Yet he once actually presented that
picture. How slender was the tie that
bound Wordsworth to the court during
his seven years tenure of the laureate
ship may be judged, says W. Forbes
Gray in THE Poets Laureate, by the
fact that he wrote no official poems
and that on only one occasion did he
leave his retreat in the heart of his be-
loved lake land to attend court func-
ton. In May, 1915, he obeyed an i'm
perative summons of the lord chamber
lain to attend state ball%at Bucking-
ham palace.
There must have been, as Professor
Knight remarks, something not lit
tie incongruous In the severely simple,
almost austere, poet of Seventy-five
years attending ceremonial of this
kind" Wordsworth went not only to
the ball, but to the queens levee, in a
court dress belonging to Samuel Rog-
ers and wearing sword once owned
by Sir Humphry Davy.
What" exclaims Hayden, would
Hazlitt say now? The poet of the
lakes in bagwig, sword and ruffies.
Hayden also remarks that the fitting
of the court dress was no easy matter.
1T was a squeeze, but by pulling and
hauling they got him in. Fancy the
high priest of mountain and of food
on his knees in q court, the quiz of
the courtiers, in dress that did not
belong to him, with sword that was
not his own and q coat that he had
borrowed" Hayden could not bear to
associate bagwig and sword. ruff
nes and buckles with Helvellyn and
the mountain sOlitudes.'
On returning home the laureate
wrote an interesting account of his
novel experience to his American
friend. Professor Reed: The recep-
ton given me by the queen, at her ba II,
was most gracious. Mrs. Everett. the
wife of your minister, among many
others. was Il witness TO 1t. without
