placed in the retort which is then fill

then condensed in the usual way and
forms what is known as bay OIL" q

DENT WILSON HAS KEPT US
OUT OF WAR.

Lewiston, Me-, Sept. 3.-Progres-

greeting Theodore Roosevelt, who
delivered here tonight his first speech
of the campaign in behalf of Charles
j.. Hughes, Republican candidate
for the presidency, A large delega.
ton of Republicans and Progress
sives met him in Portland and es-
corted him here, where he review
ed an old-fashioned torchlight pro-
cession in which many former Pro-
gressive leaders marched.
From the time he landed in Bos-
ton today from the New York steam
er until he retired to his rooms to.
night, the former president receiv-
ed enthusiastic demonstrations. His
address was devoted largely to an
attack on the administration, and to
criticism of hyphenism. There
should be in American citizenship no
dual allegiance, he declared.
"Americanism," he said, "is mat
ter of the spirit. of the soul. of the
mind; not a birthplace or creed"
The cause of preparedness is in
seperably connected with the cause
of Americanism or patriotism, "of
whole-hearted loyalty to this nation
and to all for which the great men
of this nation in the past have Stood"
the colonel declared. 1t would be
a grave misfortune" he asserted to
re-elect Mr.. Wilson.
AT this moment" he said, "Mr.
Wilson's buglemen advance, as his
greatest claim, that, he has kept us
out of war This claim can be Sc
riously made only by individuals who
indorse everything.
Under President Mckinley we had
a war with Spain. Under President
Wilson we are assured that we have
had peace with Mexico. These are
the words. Now for the deeds.
During the war with Spain fewer
Americans were killed by the Span
iards than have been killed by Mexi-
cans during the present peace with
Mexico. Moreover, when the war
with Spain was through, it was
through. But peace still continues
to rage as furiously as ever in Mex
ico."
Col. Roosevelt charged that the
taking of Vera Cruz was war, and
added: 1T was a war which was
entered into pointlessly and aban-
doned ignobly; it was a war which
failed, which did damage both to the
Mexicans and ourselves, and which
in fits outcome reflected infinite dis
honor upon our nation. But it was
war, nevertheless.

RoOsEVELT's SPEECH.

Col. Roosevelt delivered his first
address in behalf of Charles E.
Hughes, at Lewiston, Me-, Saturday
night before a tremendous crowd, and
! truly men, she was a hummer. With
| his old time fire and vim the Colon
ell arranged the Democratic admins
tration, scored its foreign policies
and spoke in glowing terms of Mr..
Hughes.
In reply to the Democratic cam
paign cry Wilson has kept us out
of war Mr.. Roosevelt said: under
President Mckinley we had a war
with Spain. Under President Will
son we are assured that we have
had peace with Mexico. These are
the words. Now for the deeds. Dur
ing the war with Spain fewer Ameri
cans were killed by the Spaniards
than have been killed by MeXicans
during the present peace with Mexi-
co. Let me repeat this. A greater
number of Americans have been kill
ed by Mexicans during these years,
when we are officially informed that
we have been at peace with them,
than were killed by the Spaniards
during our entire war with Spain.
Moreover, when the war with Spain
was thru, ii was thru. But peace
still continues to rage as furiously as
ever in Mexico"
The echo of the first Republican
address made by the Colonel since
the famous split of 1912 rings
throughout these United States. 1t
is a splendid protest against misman-
agement of government and so &C
cords with popular sentiment that
the resulting assiduous rhythm will
go far toward producing a damaging
vibration TO the walls of Democ-
racy.

HUGHES, PERSONALITY.

Ohio countians who attended the
opening of the Republican campaign
in Lexington Tuesday came back
delighted with what they had seen
and heard, but more especially were
they delighted to find Mr.. Hughes a
big hearted, whole-souled, genuine
American gentleman.
The hostile press has from the be-
ginning endeavored to convey the i'm
preston that the Republican nominee
was arrogant, cold and poor mixer.
Strange to say they had partly sue
ceeded in this. Succeeded at least
in arousing fear that such might be
and when greeted with a warm hand
shake and a cordial smile Tuesday
followers of the Republican nominee
were naturally pleased.
Ohio county Republicans return
from Lexington with added vim and
determination to go out and work
harder for the man, who If given the
opportunity. will make the country
great president.

WILSON'S BUNCO GAME.

The strike cloud has passed over
but the season is spring and No one
can tell just how soon after the
election it will return. The Adam
con law is believed by many to be
unconstitutional but 1t will serve the
purpose for which President Wilson,
who by the way is candidate for
second term, intended it. That is,
the postponement of a final settle
ment until after the election in NO
vember.
1t is reported that when the COM
mittee of brotherhood men called up
on the President they had intended
to settle the differences by arbitration
and were surprised when he inform
ed thea that it was not matter for
arbitration and that he would see
that they got all they demanded. or
course they were willing to take all
they could get. and we are not the
ones to blame them, We ds believe
the problem should have been taken
up then under tho operating condi-
tiona Snd nai delayed for from six
is nine months pending trial Of
what the brotherhood men called
for. -'sHE~s'' -'''''

roads and who claim that they should

The Presidents little bunco game
