At Lincoln, Neb, Hughes said:
Correct policies will keep America
out of war" This is splendid en-.
dorsement of Wilson's policies be e
cause Wilson has kept US out of
war Hughes criticises Wilson 5
policies therefore he has other
ideas and Hughes policies might
plunge this country into war. Be
safe and cast your vote for Wilson
as that is a vote for peace and pros,
perity, a vote for humanity. a vote
for the good of all the people.

he is in accord, are any indication
of what either OF these gentlemen
would have done had by any mis-
fortune either of them been presi-

Mr.. Farmer, Mr. Laborer, Mr..
Business Man, just bear this fact
in mind. When you vote for
Hughes and the Republican ticket
you are voting just like the special
interests desire. These favored few

because they know that he is the
man who with a Republican con.
eress pass such laws as will enable
the few to prosper at the expense
of you and | and all the common
