His remarks will never again carry the same ser;n.u
that they did prior to the Chicago convention He hos M
before and his progressive party and the progressv M
direct reversal This self advertised great mo.
principle, deserted principle and with skuking ulk;n
Went attitude crawled under the tent of the bosses whom
professed to be fighting some time ago.
Now the purpose of this Judas is defeat of Wilson n
mania His assaults upon German Americans m
Thursday he made his first appearance since his retreat f
Chicago at Lewiston, Maine where he preached of the o
of and the disasters of and the foh has NOT w
dried on his lips, after his insane fits -"
After that speech, 'his candidate the cbamnon w.,
thrower of the United States Charles Evans Hughes end
all of the assertions of his speech in Maine telegram ~
congratuation and approval The should consd ~
approval and the subject matter approved by Hughes ~
The ex-champon of Armageddon is opponent Of The
doctrine of peace and of the mission of the Prince of Peace
Peace Earth good will toward He the exnonm
of and unlike the ridiculous quibbler and artfu do
Hughes plainly states that should have pursued cono
of Mexico. In support thereof he directed his whole sn
and backed his position with such lies in statement that dr
ling the Mexican disturbance Americans have been killed
than killed in the with Spain
President Wilson's greatest mistake however in the opn
ion of Roosevelt asserted in his speech Lewiston Maine
that he failed to intervene when Germany violated the nen
lily of Belgium Hughes has been steering around forced
statement this question and has been playing for German
votes Roosevelt did not and Hughes congratulated him and
approved his statements For example Mr. Roosevelt said
Amy attempt to organize American citizens
along poltlco racial lines is foul and evil thing Any
organization of American citizens which in the in
terest OF foreign power guilty Of moral treason
the republic 1t is because of such action that con
denim those professional German Americans who in
policies act servants and allies of Germany,
as Americans interested solely in the honor and vel
fare of America and would condemn just as quickly
English Americans French Americans or Irish
Americans who acted in such Manner
Roosevelt always takes soak at the and
other OF the hyphenaed species Insofar he denomcs
racial mtngues against the government he is right He has
more courage than that Hughes who lodges such direct
statements and hungers for German Hughes has
policy principle but vote winning and he has bunch
behind him that all vicious methods in dipping the
has used his party tactics Roosevelt refuses to soft
pedal and believes in frankness and courage statements
belief.
Roosevelt stops with his TRADES against hypenaed German
Americans Why does he not assa that type of special priv
ledge or big predatory interests representatives who would
drag our country into with Mexico assist them rob
ping the Mexican people of their wealth. and who have caused
more OF the Mexican troubles by their ntrgues this side
the border that has originated the other side? The
reason that Roosevelt merely professed God and
advocate OF war Why does he not assa the munitions manu-
who deals in engines of destruction and whose profits
are from the business of original maker
Inc answer again is that their desires his and that then
wealth IS financing his propaganda.
Roosevelt IN speechmaing for Hughes has for his man
purpose not alleged admiration respect for Hughes o
hatred for Wilson He hates Wilson being advocated
peace HIS whole DISCOURSE his every statement and hS
whole force If there be- directed to mtarsm and wal
lhere IS not another policy advocated accept his sta
eh,s ana ms advocacy OF Hughes is to condemn wilson a
peace ana to endorse and policy that seeks TO p
vent
Roosevelt is drunk with the blood lust of Europe Hugns
desperate IN his desire for election And while these WV
poiesseo great Americans abroad in the land ano
woodrow Wilson, and exponent of Peace and Prosperity
seriously devoted to the duties imposed by his office as M
oehe: Inc sympathles of the American people are WIN
president His election is assured
The republican organization is doing everything posso
make the Progressves feel the parable of the prodg
mas Its modern application Washington Star.
