NEWSPAPER TALK

Long on talk but short on ideas the
republican nominee for the presi-
dency, has as yet utterly failed to
present single logical reason why
he should be elected and Mr.. Wilson
ousted from the White House. Time
and again has Mr.. Hughes and other
republicans been asked to give bill
of particulars, but so far they have
not done so. At this late date we do
not anticipate that they will do SO,
because there is no reason they can
urge.-Columbus Enquirer-sun.

WAR AFFECTS SUPPLY OF
BIBLES

The American Bible Society re-
ports that its stock of the scrip
lures is almost exhausted and that
because of war conditions, the re-
sulting increased price of paper,
ink, and binding materials, and the
inability Of the society to meet these
extra costs it has for the present
stopped publication. This is the
first time in the history Of the So
ciety that it has stopped printing
and faced the necessity Of stopping
the distribution Of the most widely
read book the world knows anything
about. 1t raises the question and
compels the imagination to conjure
what would happen if from now on
no Bibles SHOULD be obtainable not
only by gift from such organizations
as the Bible Society, but even by
purchase?

A FIRM WILSON ACT

"Mr. Wilson," says the New York
World, twas nominated for President
Thursday night and has not formally
accepted yet. Mr.. Hughes must re-
gard this as another evidence of that
vacillation which worries him so
much"
Mr.. Wilson accepted the Demo-
cratic nomination before the conven-
ton rubber-stamped it, before the
convention assembled, before the
delegates were chosen to go to the
convention.
The Democratic candidate and the
Democratic platform were made,
signed, sealed, and delivered in the
White House by the man who is now
the Democratic party. In respect of
that function of being the whole
Democratic show President Wilson
has never been vacillating. 1t is the
single exception, in his whole career
as Chief Magistrate Of the nation, to
prove the rule.

WILSON'S MEXICAN POLICY
BRINGS US FACE TO FACE
WITH WAR OR DIS
HONOR

Perhaps the Mexican situation is
at last about to, burst wide open;
then again, perhaps not. If we are
on the brink of war we may avoid it
as we have avoided it so often be-
fore, at the cost of national honor.
In the last couple of years Mexi-
can crises have been almost a daily
habit with the Wilson Administra-
ton. Nothing but increasing shame
has ever come out of them. What
ever comes out of this particular
crisis, the cause of 1.-THE political

The young girl was knocked down and

fined In her bed for weeks. WI hen the

THE WOMEN AT ST. LOUIS

The near view Of the victory Of
woman's suffrage at St. Louis does
not reveal its real proportions. 1t
may take the hundred years"
which Governor Glynn assigned as
the necessary time for the real es-
innate Of present Democratic
achievements, to give the right
perspective to the picture of the last
hours of the Democratic convention,
but some time in the future
the situation will have its place in
political history.
Heretofore the women have
sought, now they demanded, and
from their seats in the galleries
they kept score of how their de-
mands were answered. The knitting
women Of the Reign of Terror never
indicated their wishes to the French
deputies with more insistence than
did the women at st. Louis. They
yelled their approval and they
Kissed their hatred for those who
opposed them. They were armed
with threat and they swung its
lash whenever an unfriendly form
was seen.
The vote on the minority amend
ment presented by Governor Fergu-
son was the opportunity for the
women to nut their friends and their
enemies in parallel columns and find
the total of the former almost five
times as great in numbers as the
latter. Maryland was the only dele
cation that voted unanimously
against the women, but even their
unanimity did not arouse so great a
storm of Kisses as did the vote Of
four-ffths of the Texas delegates in
favor of the minority report.
And when it was plain that suf-
frage was to be Endorsed ~ s"nrano
voices of the galleries were sup
ported by the tenors and BASES of
the delegates themselves until had
there been a man brave enough to
have begun it there might have
been such demonstration as the
names of favorite candidates GUS
tomarily receive.
1t was a great day for woman's
suffrage. 1t was a great day for the
women, and they had earned it.
