BOTkIN AND THOMPSON
Final Democratic Rally at Auditorium
Saturday Night.

William H. Thompson. United States
senator. and J. D. Botkin, former war
den of the state penitentiary, closed
the campaign for the Democrats in To-
peka when they spoke to a crowd of
500 or 800 people IN the auditorium
They furnished two hours of oratory
and appealed for votes for Democrat
candidates because Wilson kept US
out of war; with some nation which
the speakers did not mention.
In a forty minute talk, Botkin flayed
the Capper administration. He espe-
cially criticised the governor for re-
moving him from the wardenship of
the state prison and the subsequent
appointment of J. K. Codding. Issu-
ance of a pardon to Alfretta Haggerty,
witness in the Botkin investigation.
was ground for bitter indictment of
the Capper rule.
Both Botkin and Senator Thompson
appealed for support of the Democrat
president on the mo war theory.
Senator Thompson assured the audi
ence that he was certain the Adamson
law would be a blessing to labor and
that they should not forget to caress
the kindly hand of Wilson when they
voted in Tuesdays election.

in SEVEN STATES
Prohibition Is Hot Issue To-
morrow in Numerous Spots.
California VIII Try Again to
Gust Great Wine Industry.

New York, Nov. 6.-Prohibition Is
a hot issue in seven states tomorrow
California, Montana, Idaho, South Ia
kota, Nebraska, Michigan and Arizona
In Idaha the proposition is whether
the electors shall make prohibition a
part of the constitution. 1t now has
drouth by statute.
California has two proposals-the
first to close saloons and stop CLUB
liquor selling, effective in 1918; the
other, total prohibition (including
manufacturer, effective in 1920. This
fight is bitter on account of Califor-
MAS wine industry. The dry say the
first proposal is likely to be adopted.
Montana votes on a referendum pro-
hibitory statute. South Dakota with
400 dry towns against ninety-two vets,
votes on statewide prohibition.
The Michigan fight is important in
view of the fact that it is an industrial
state, whereas the larger industrial
centers have heretofore been wet.
Drys claim that Hanly and Land
rith will poll a surprisingly large vote,
because of growing prohibition senti-
ment and also will capture certain
voters who oppose Wilson and Hughes
on principle.
Arizona will vote on a prohibition
amendment.

OtisL.B Benton
Is and Has Been
an Advocate of Rural
Credit Legislation

In conversation with Mr.. Benton re-
garding the subject of Rural Credits, he
expressed himself positively in favor of
such measure, and said further:
why, do you know it was the Re-
publican party that made an exhaustive
study of the subject which is the basis
for the present bill, and the Republican
National Convention of 1912 declared in
favor of the Rural Credit measure
During my entire life in Northwest
ern Kansas / have worked early and late
to obtain cheaper money for this part of
Kansas. Cheaper money means higher
price for land which is of far more i'm
portance to me as large land owner, as
well as to the other farmers of the dis
trict, than anything else.
81 shall work for all beneficial legis-
lation to this end. The false and garbled
statements being spread over this dis
trict by INSCRIPTIONS politicians will not
fool the voters into believing that l am
opposed to Rural Credit Legislation. >

ONLY ONE WOULD BE MARRIED
Kansas University Goods Chose Other
Lines for Life Work.

Lawrence, Kan, Nov. 6.-On1y one
young woman out of 1,098 attending
the University of Kansas intends to
have naatrimony for her life work, ac-
cordlng to an announcement made at
the office of the registrar based on
statistics taken from a QUESTIONABLE
signed by each woman in the school
Sixty-five per cent of the university
women at the time of their registra-
ton this fall said they expected to be-
come teachers, the report shows. One
woman entered the engineering school
this year and another the law school
One signified her intention for a mo-
ton picture career while another said
she intended to be a business woman,
the statistics show
Other fields chosen by the uniyer-
sity co-eds as their favorite fer life
work include banking, pharmacy,
medicine, missionary work, assaying,
bacteriology. art, journalism, public
speaking and dramatic art. Out of
the entire number 100 signified no in
tended vocation while 80 were unde-
cided, the report states.

First and America Ef-
ficient, Hughes Slogan.
BY GEORGE G. HILL.
written for the Republican National
COmmittee.1


In the brief articles which 1 have
been permitted to write for your col
umns, it has been my earnest endeav-
or to refrain from throwing mud, .
from misstating a single TACT, and
from relying on glittering generalities
in place of argument. 1 have tried to
the best of my ability, within the brief
space allowed me, to state my reasons
for the faith that is in me. giving each
day some concrete reason which
should appeal to your readers as a
ground for supporting Charles Evans
Hughes.
Silly and sweeping charges, such as
that Mr.. Hughes, who came into pub
lie life because he broke up by means
of the insurance investigation the I'M
holy alliance between big business"
and politics. was the Wall street can
didate, have ignored. Contentious,
unsupported by facts, that Hughes
would get this country into war, or
that he is supported by or has treated
with a German-American alliance so
closely approach an insult to the intel
ligence of your readers that I have
purposely ignored them. Everyone in
this country knows that he is Hooper
cent American, that he welcomes the
support of all Americans, regardless
of what may be the land of their ma
tivity or of their ancestry, and that
when elected he will be president of
the whole people. His motto is and
will continue to be America first and
America efficient"
Such baseless charges as that Mr..
Hughes would repeal the income tax,
the child labor bill, passed largely by
Republican votes, the 8-hour legisla-
ton on the statutes-practically all of
which was placed there by the Repub-
licanS-and that Mr.. Hughes would
get the United States into war, 1 have
treated as too obviously false to war
rant numbering your columns with de-
malls. Josephus Daniels I have pur-
posely ignored. 1t has seemed hardly
manly to hit further a public official
so positively and conclusively discred-
tied, and there has meen no doubt in
my mind that the voters would re-
member that "a vote for Wilson is a
vote for Daniels" I have simply en-
deavored to present to your readers
concrete reasons why they should
vote for Mr.. Hughes. If I have sue
ceeded my labor has been well repaid,
and 1 desire to take this opportunity
to thank the editor for the space he
has so kindly placed at my disposal

Connolly Attempts
to Prejudice the
Voters

By the way don't the voters think Mr.. Con-
nelly pretty hard up for campaign material
when he resorts to the "extravagant use of
money" by having expensive plate matter pre-
pared with his picture, to publish the statement
that Mr.. Benton stands well even outside the
Sixth Congressional District? In addition to the
generous and universal Endorsement that Mr..
Benton is receiving from all classes of people at
home, Missouri banker also thinks well of Mr..
Benton as congressional timber. What ter
rible charge. The time WAS when bankers
Endorsement would prejudice the voters, and Mr..
Connolly is resorting to this old stuff. But when
the farmers and everybody else are riding in
automobiles, many owning bank stock and all
getting rich by the sale of our livestock and ag
ricultural products at WAR PRICES, no one
will be fooled by such methods. The question
naturally arises, has Connolly ever done any
thing at home or abroad to receive such praise?
Mr. Connolly has been in Congress four years
Will he or his friends name one bill that he ever
even offered, to say nothing about it becoming
a law, while he has been Congressman. for the
benefit of a single man, woman child of the
Sixth Congressional District of Kansas? His
salary during the four years. say nothing about
his mileage and extras, will amount to over
$50, 900, and what has he ever done to earn the
money ?-Obern Times.

LAST SHOT OF CAMPAIGN IN
HILL-CREEL PAPER DEBATE
Record Reviewed Gave
Us "Peace With Honor"
BY GEORGE CREEL.
(Written for the National Democratic
Committee.)

Committee.)
| From the day that he took office,
| Woodrow Wilson has been confronted
by a press of tremendous problems.
The Taft administration was repudi-
ated by the people for its sins and
/ failures, and it was with these sins
and failures that woodrow Wilson had
| to grapple. There We're bad laws to
wipe out, good laws to enforce, neces-
sary laws to pass, and the public serv-
! ice to reorganize on the new basis of
honesty and efficiency.
To complicate these tasks came the
European war. with its various appeals
to the emotions of our mixed popula-
ton. it'll inevitable assault upon our
traditional neutrality, and its frequent
violations of international law by bel
HgerentS eager for every advantage.
This is the domestic record of Wood
row Wilson; tariff revision downward;
the federal reserve act; the child la
Dor law: rural credits; workmen's
compensation; the seamens law; the
Clayton antitrust act; the shipping
act; the good roads law; the eight
hour day that averted a nationwide
strike; agricultural extension; federal
employment bureau: the federal trade
commission; the tariff commission;
opening Alaska with government rail-
ways; the restoration of the navy to
second place; the reorganization of
regular army and the national guard;
income, Inheritance and munitions
taxes to pay for preparedness. No
president in history ever drove thru
such a program of constructive legis-
lationi
AS for the international policies of
Woodrow Wilson, they have given the
United States peace with honor. Neu-
trail rights have been indicated and
world war averted. Justice, not greed,
has governed our relations with
Mexico.
All has been done under stress of
bitter attacks and incessant opposi-
ton. Organized greed and alien c1n-
spiracies have made the president run
a gauntlet of hate.
In view of the record, is it too much
to say that it is not Woodrow Wilson
who is on trial, but the people of the
United States?
