The proposition, according to those
reporting to the Anti-Saloon League.
eentemplates the repeal of every anti.

petitioners profess to believe, it Is as

they can the popular vote. Through

$50 Taken to Sydney

Tahitfs blue-blooded and aristo-

Sydney, "as the French government
gave us only 4S hours to leave. Many
of the shops in the island have had
to be closed because Of shortage OF
men,"
When the old Mariposa was running
between San Francisco and Tahiti, her
arrivals and departures were the only
excitement, according to Freight Clerk
o. Nordman of the Senoma, but he
said the Tahiti boys told him their

Col. John McElroy Says G. A. R. Owes
 Debt to President

Washington, D. C.. Oct 31-That every G. A. R. veteran owes a debt of gratitude to the administration of President Wilson is the declaration of Col. John McElroy of this city, a life long Republican and for thirty 1.-two years editor of the National Tribune, official national organ of the Grand Army of the Republic. Col. McElroy has refused to go on the stump for Hughes.
 For me to take the stump against Wilson would be to smite the hand that helped us," he says. We old soldiers owe much to President Will son. The new widows pension law comes more nearly to doing justice to the wives and dependents of old sol diers than any pension law ever pass ed. Commissioner SaltZgaber, ap- pointed head of the pension bureau by President Wilson, has been one of the most efficient pension commits sioners we have ever had.
 "Of. course most G. A. R. veterans are republicans I am myself. But however much we may disagree with the Democrats over purely party mat ters, as veterans of the civil war we must admit a debt to President Will sorr and his administration"

Nixon Pays Tribute To Wilson's Policy
 In Foreign Affairs

New York. Oct. 31-Lewis Nixon, a close student of international affairs and for many years prominent figure in public and commercial, life, in a statement discussing the issues of the campaign, says that President Will sons handling of the many problems that have grown out of the European war has been masterly. Mir. Nixon has been travelling throughout the country for the past six months and has had an opportunity to observe the trend of public opinion in many states.
 ''The next five months" he says, 'may require decisions of vital mo- ment to our country. and the people of the United States are beginning to realize that a four months twilight zone of doubt anad uncertainty as to position taken and policy to be upheld might make us the principal suffers from the after effects of the war
 Even Republicans with the real interests of their country at heart know that this is no time for a man yet groping in the dark for policies to enunciate to take the he-m."
