We have seen 100000 men
wounded and sent limping through
life. We know that the war is cost
ing $4,0O0,000 every hour. But we
can not figure the cost in heart-aches
and heart-breaks, in mothers tears
and mothers sobs.
But what contrast on this side.
Here we see 100,00O,O0O peaceful,
prosperous, contented, happy people.
Every day 100000 wage-earn-
ers so forth to a day of toll and re-
turn in the evening to homes of
comfort and contentment.
Every day 100000 farmers go
out to their work in the early dawn
and return in the evening to homes
where there are no vacant chairs
around the hearthstones.
Every day 100000 school
children depart from home in the
morning with the kisses of loving
mothers warm on their smiling lips,
and return in the evening to homes
where no crepe adorns the door, and
there are no ghosts of murdered
loved ones there.
Every day 100000 devoted
mothers arise to their daily work
with prayers in their hearts for con-
tinued peace. They have no lamen-
tation, and we hear no weeping for
murdered children.
Can we afford to change? We
know what Wilson will do. We do
not know what Hughes will do, for
he has never told us. According TO
his own statements in the past, If he
/ had been president he would now be
at war with Germany and Mexico,
and we would have been tied up with
a strike that would have made it i'm
possible for us to even send a piece
of bareback to our soldiers.
you may determine the issue of
war or peace on November 7. I
appeal to you to re-elect Woodrow
Wilson to the presidency of the
United States and assure yourselves
of a continuance of the splendid
work of progressive legislation that
he is engaged in"

PREPS ARE v|CTORS
OVER PULLMAN HIGH
First Victory of Washington State
Secondary Men Over Rivals of
Long Standing

For the first time in its history,
the Pullman high school was defeat
ed by the w. S. c. Props Saturday
on Rogers field by the decisive score
of 900. Although outplayed in
nearly all departments, the Pullman
team, by game fighting, held the
heavy Prep eleven scoreless through
out the first half. The Props came
back strong, however, in the second
half and by straight football, scored
three touchdowns on the Pullman
team
McIvor AMI Walters, plus a fine
fighting spirit, proved to be Pull
mans strongest points. McIyor, in
both open field running and bucking
the line, was the star of the game.
Walters showed excellent ability in
making end runs by his shifting and
lodging.
The Props, though still a green
team, proved by consistent work, to
be the best team. They lacked the
pep displayed by their opponents,
but by good defensive work kept
their goal in safety at all times.
They received the ball in the second
half and at once worked it down
the field and sent harrington over
for the first touchdown. He kicked
the goal.
In the second quarter, Bates, by
a line buck, made the second score
and Parringer kicked the goal. In
the final quarter Paringer broke
away on a pretty 25-yard run for the
final touchdown, but missed the
goal.
Score: Props, 20; Pullman Hi, O..
Officials: Referee, Dudley; umpire,
Boiler.

RECORD AUCTION SALE

Col. Harry c. Crank, the well
known and popular auctioneer OF
Spokane, adds another to his long list
of successful auction sales. This one
he held at the I. Jorgens ranch, one
mile from NezPerce, Idaho, where he
sold farm horses, hogs and grade cat
tie at good prices; pure bred sheep
and 81 head of registered Shorthorn
cattle, including calves, young bulls
heifers and cows, the prices ranging
from s115 to $275 per head for the
registered cattle.
Mr.. Crank deserves great crealt
for the gentlemanly manner In which
he conducted the sale and, in fact, all
others he has held all over Wash
ington. Idaho and oregon in the past
three years, showing also the special
training he has had in his profession.
Any farmer considering holding a
sale should consult him, no matter
where he lives, as Mr.. Cranke con-
ducts sales all over the Northwest

Urges Election of Hughes

The election of Mr. Hughes would
facilitate the re-enactment of the re-
publican law giving the full benefit
of the Panama canal as an avenue of
trade and transportation to our citi-
zens. A republican congress placed
upon the statute books a law provid-
ing for the free passage through the
canal OF American ships engaged in
coastWlse trade. The democratic
party repealed this law at the in
stance of Great Britain, and in the
place of it enacted a statute levying
heavy burden upon all American
domestic traffic passing through the
canal, which is wholly American. and
for the construction of which neither
Great Britain nor any other foreign
country gave any consideration what
ever.
These are only few of the rea-
sons, which might be multiplied, for
my advocacy of the election of JUS
tice Hughes as president of the Unit
ed States in the forthcoming cleo

4 VERY BUSY PlACf::lS
DEMOCRATIC QUARTERS
At the SeeIbach Hotel, Where
Everything Is Bent On
PartyiSuccess.

The busiest place in Louisville Il
the Democratic Headquarters on the
tenth floor OF the Seelbach Hotel
where small army of clerks and
assistants are aiding Chairman j.
Campbell Cantrill in making the
most vigorous and complete cam
paiCn ever attempted in the State,
Few people are aware of the tremen-
deus expense of running the offices
in such a campaign. The force of
twenty-five or thirty young lady
stenographers is kept busy prepar-
ing matter 10 be sent out to the vo-
tiers and a force Of mailing clerks
spend from eight to ten hours day
sending it out, so that the voters
may be kept properly informed and
induced to attend the election.
Chairman Cantrill communicates
weekly with his 100 county cam
paign chairmen and very often with
the five assistants thai each has in
els county in every precinct. Ihls
makes 120 chairmcn and 1900 pre-
tinct committeeman. The postage
on these letters alone amounts to
about $50 per week and it is the
intention to send matter several
times to each of the 100000 Demo
cratic voters in the State. 1t is thus
disclosed that the postage alone for
running the campaign will amount
20 a small fortune, 10 say nothing of
the many and large expenses.
The money to defray these ex-
penses comes solely from private
contributions. so it will be seen how
necessary it is for all who can to
contribute to them. The work must
not be hampered by lack of funds
and it is hoped that Democrats will
remember that he gives twice who
gives quickly.

Men and women who have improp-

the common ailments of the stom-

which are caused by catarrhal affec-
which long unchecked, finally have
weakened the vital organs, will find
Tanlac ionic, tissue builder and
appetizer designed to overcome
these troubles.
While it is true that the success
of Tanlac in some cities has been
so great as to amaze certain bust
ness men, it really, also, is true that
Tanlac is no more popular in one
city than another wherever it has
been introduced.
Everywhere, the most prominent
people will give testimony in praise
of Tanlac out of gratitude for the
relief that Tanlac brings, and be-
cause they believe it is their duty to
do so.
1t is the humanitarian spirit to
help the "other fellow" if you can,
that is the first thought of many
men and women who voluntarily
tell what Tanlac has done for them.
Hundreds of thousands have found
Tanlac an ideal tonic, tissue builder
and strength builder. 1t reaches
