PEACE OR WAR The ISSUE.

Speaking at Battle Creek, Mich,
Sept. 30 last, Theodore Roosevelt said:
al have been asked what would have
done had | been President when the
Lusitania was torPedoed.
"a would have instantly taken posses
sion of every German ship informed in
this country and then | would have
said: Now we will discuss, not what
we will give, but what we will give
back!'"
THAT WOULD HAVE MEANT
WAR!
1t would have been a challenge to
the German nation to a trial at arms.
1t would have been a violation of ev-
cry principle of neutrality, and at
time, with all Europe under arms,
when this country was the trustee of
and the only nation capable of uphold
| ing neutral rights.
The seizure itself would have been
an act of war, just as the seizure Of
German interned ships by Portugal
was regarded as an act Of war and
was followed by an immediate declara-
| LAOA "a wax ~ 6SA AAoAS n6oASI x OR-
tuRal.
Following the same line Of war talk,
speaking at Lewiston, Maine, Aug. 81
last, Mr.. Roosevelt said:
The policies Of Americanism and
preparedness, taken together, mean
applied patriotism. There should be
correlation Of policy and armament
America, which sprang to. the
succor Of Cuba IN 1893, has stood an
idle spectator Of the invasion of Bel
GUM, the sinking Of the Lusitania, the
continued slaughter of our own citi-
gems, and Of the reign Of anarchy,
rapine and murder In Mexico"
These are the deliberate declarations
Of the man with whom Candidate
Hughes has said, "a AM IN CON-
| PLETE ACCORD" and Hughes has
publicly congratulated Roosevelt for
what he said.
From their public statements the
| conclusion is inevitable that if either
Roosevelt or Hughes had been Presi-
dent when the Army of the Kaiser in
vaded Belgium we would have had
war with Germany; that when the Lu-
sitania was sunk that we would have
had war with Germany, and that now
we would have instant war with Ger
many over the submarine raids in the
Atlantic Ocean off the Massachusetts
Coast
Must we not agree with President
Wilson when speaking at Shadow
Lawn on Sept 80, last, he said:
"Am not right that we must draw
the conclusion that If the Republican
party ts put into power at the next
election, our foreign policy will be rad
ically changed2
II cannot draw any other inference.
All our present foreign policy Is wrong,
they say, and II 1t Is wrong and they
are men Of conscience they must change
it.
And IL they are going to change it,
in what direction are they going to
change? THERE IS ONLY ONE
CHOICE AS AGAINST PEACE, AND
THAT IS WAR"
No other conclusion can be drawn.
What is YOUR conclusion, thought
full citizen?
In the last analysis, the election will
be decided by the farmer vote. And so
on the farmer is the responsibility of
whether this country shall have peace
or war
The only assurance that the country
will not be needlessly plunged into war
is for YOU to vote for Woodrow Viii
son.
FOR PEACE OR WAR YOUR CON-
SCIENCE AND YOUR VOTE MUST
DECIDE.
