labor bill passed. Some say he did
this to catch the Progressive vote.
Perhaps he did; yet he placed him
self on record as being opposed to
child labor He has not interviewed
in Mexico. 1t is claimed that this was
due to the many protests from peace
and labor organizations, as well as
that Of the Socialist party, which
may be true. However, Pres. Wilson
has placed himself on record as be-
ing opposed to intervention in MeXi-
co. He also claims the credit for
having kept us out of war with Eu-
rope. This claim is likewise qUes-
toned. l don't give a darn what the
motives or causes for these acts may
have been. Pres. Wilson takes the
honor; stands before 1OO,OOO,OOO
people and says with pride: 81 did
these noble deeds"
Is it then reasonable to suppose
that Pres. Wilson, if he claims to be
a good American citizen, if he has
one drop of honest blood in his veins,
if he has any self pride and respect
or any conscience at all, could or
would do other than strive to con-
tinUe the grand and noble work for
which and in which he takes so much
credit and pride?
Now, Mr.. Hughes has criticized
Pres. Wilson's administration from
beginning to end, opposing the
things he advocates and advocating
the things he opposes. He terms the
8-hoUr-day bill a surrender. l infer
by this that he would oppose any
further legislation in the interest of
labor. He is also opposed to Wilson's
Mexican policy, and therefore must
be in favor of Intervention. He is
likewise opposed to the presidents
foreign policy, and by the way he
talks one is led to believe that he
thinks we should go to war with
both England and Germany.
Now we see what a vast difference
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1916-11-04

of labor, but we will be at war with
both Mexico and nearly the whole Of
Europe. Can you think of anything
worse than that? Should we elect
Wilson he will likewise assume the
people are in favor of the things he
stands for and there will be more leg
islation in the interest of labor, con-
tinued peace and prosperity. This
is all we can expect to wish for dur
ing the next four years.
Before, when it was easy to pick
the winner, when there was scarcely
any difference between the two big
parties, and when the Socialist party
was the only party that had anything
to offer the working class, l always
voted the Socialist ticket. But now,
when the election is going to be so
close and the difference between the
two parties is so great that the well
fare and happiness of our nation is
at stake, don't see how any man
or woman can afford to take the
chance to vote for any other candi-
date but Pres. Wilson. - George w.

of interest being displayed by GER
tain clubs and daily papers about the
consolidation of Chicago's public
parks. And l as well as others with
whom I have talked think that it
would indeed be a great calamity
now or at any future time to in any
way interfere with the arrangements
of the different park systems in the
city of Chicago. It would in a great
measure impare the efficiency of the
Chicago public library, an institution
of which the general public may well
be proud. It is said by some that
the time is not ripe for consolidation,
to which I say Amen. It is not ripe
now or at any other time in the fu-
ture.

A series of burglaries Of

A series of burglaries of
local business places extend
ing over period of several
months, and thefts of small
sums of money therefrom,
also occasional instances in
which articles of value have
been stolen by night providers,
are naturally beginning to
arouse some interest. No one
seems to know who the cul-
prits are nor whence they
come, but it must be about
time their identity was being
discovered. Other towns are
EXPERIENCING similar recret
nocturnal visitations, and in a
few instances arrests have
been made. In a neighboring
town a strong suspicion exists
that the authors of the rob-
berries perpetrated there come
from Spokane and that they
find safe refuge there when
they get back with their i'll
gotten gains. However this
may be, steps should be taken
to apprehend the criminals
before, imboldened by i'm |
munity from molestation, they |
extend the scope of their !
criminality. |

SCHOOL NOTES.

The second annual banquet
given by the Domestic Science
classes in honor Of the seniors and
the members of the school board,
on Wednesday evening, was de-
cided success. The girls prepared
ali the food themselves, as we'll as
most of the table decorations; and
they and Miss Taylor are to be
congratulated on the excellent
results obtained. The prepare
tons for the banquet were under
the general supervision OF Emily
Hoffman, and she was assisted by
Thema Cady, Eileen Clifford, Ger
trude Barnes, Laura Wlckert-
shiemer, and Fern Dysart. They
were helped in serving by Belle
Wenz and Carol Sternberg.
After the dinner proper was over
the following program Of toasts
was given:
POSTMASTER, Supt. Davis
Dollars, DR.. Wenz
Days, Mr.. Layton
Dangers, Mr.. Edelblute
Differences, Mr.. Hostetter
Determination, Emily Hoffman

The domestic science banquet
has now become an annual affair,
and is reported by all the guests to
be very enjoyable event.
Preparations for the May festival
are going on apace, in spite of the
fact that this is the week for exam
nations and for finishing up in
general. The choruses and dances
are beginning to be brought to
completion, and the whole play is
rounding into form. Members OF
the domestic science and manual
training classes particularly are
making decided efforts to finish
their work for the contests in good
time. The only matter OF uncer-
tainty now is the weather, and we
are daily making efforts to bride
the weather-man to good behavior.
