WILSON GIVES LAST
WORD TO LEADERS
Urges Vigilance to Avert Last
Minute Confusion of Voters.

LONG BRANCH, n. j., Nov. e.
President Wilson's "hnal word" on
the.election, sent out by him to every
State and county chairman in the
country. declares the fight has been
won, but eNhorts them to be viGilant
against debated efforts to confuse

workers In the cause Of progressive

you to renewed exertions and viGi-

Efforts of Two Presidential Candi-
dates Toward Equal Rights for
Women Are Compared.

To the Editor Of THE TINES:
In inducing Mr.. Ford TO adopt the
principle OF equal pay to women for
ployes the same wages as his male en-
ployes. % per day, Mr.. Wilson has done
more for the equality OF the sexes, for
equal rights. for the forward movement
among, women. proRessivisnl, than Mr..
Hughes has done in his lifetime.
Three times the people Of the State
OF New York. represented in Senate and
Assembly, desired to enact q law giving
to the school teachers OF New York city
equal pay for equal work. Twice did
Governor Hughes veto such proposed
law. and the voice OF the people was
not needed until another governor gave
sanction to the enactment.
Mr.. Wilson believes not only In equal
suffrage. but In the greater principle oi
equal rights for all-maie and female.

THE INVISIBLE GOVERNMENT
CHARGE

Mr.. Hughes was wise when he
declined to make retort to the ac-
cusation of President Wilson, in the
closing speech of the Wilson cam
paign, that Hughes election meant
the installment oof invisible govern
ment at Washington. Mr.. Hughes
read what the President said, and
just laughed. He was entitled to his
laugh.
From beginning to this point near
its end, the Wilson Administration
has been nearer to invisible govern
inent than any that can be recalled
in this country. The President has
VIGOROUSLY held aloof from counsel
that might have illumined his way.
There has been Colonel House, still
the man of mystery. There have
been John Lind and William Bayard
Hale and others who as private, per-
Sonal commissioners of the Presi-
dent have gone out and done work
for him that ought to have been
done by his Cabinet and his diplo-
matte agencies. Seemingly the
President has at no time entertained
real confidence in his constitutional
advisers. 1t is we'll known that no
President has been more exclusive,
more retired, more determined to
consider the counsel only of a mar
row group of advisers, most of them
unofficial.
Mr.. Hughes conducted for four
years the administration of New
York State, and all the time it was
out in the wide open. Nobody dream

re-creating the Palestine Of today
into a Jewish state. The Jews for
the greater part are not there, and
most of them would not want to 20
back there. The Poles in most parts
of Poland are probably largely out
numbered by other peoples. Some
thing like half the Jews in the world
live-or lived, rather, before this
frightful war brought its ruin to
them-within the limits Of old
Poland.
The reorganization. Of Bahama by
the Congress Of Vienna was accom-
plished regardless Of proper distri-
buttons Of races, languages, tradi-
lions, historic relationships; and that
was what made Bahama seethe with
discomfort. To re-create old Poland
or some part Of It, would bring
about a very similar situation.
There will have to be the utmost
care in handling Poland. Just one
thing about it is certain. That Is.
that no Polish kingdom set up now,
with the House of Hohenzollern
standing back in the shadows as its
guardian, will survive II the House
Of Hohenzollern fails to become mas
ter of the world at the wars end.
The ceremony of Sunday was a hol-
low sham, and nobody knew it better
than the leaders of Germany who
thought to win a bit of the worlds
approval by a seeming liberality.

ONE ARGUMENT PUR HUGHES

One reason in favor of supporting
Mr.. Hughes, that has had far less
consideration during the campaign
than it deserves. is based on the de-
cided prospect that the next House
Of Representatives will be Repub-
lican.
The House has not always slipped
through with the Presidential ticket.
The Republicans never controlled
Congress throughout the Presidency
of Mr.. Hayes. Today, there is strong
probability that, no matter what
fate befalls the head of the ticket,
the Republicans will organize the
next House. They ought to have both
House and President. Under our BIZ
party system of government, to have
Congress divided or both branches
of it opposed to the Administration
at the White House, is a national
misfortune. The Republicans are
probably going to carry the next
House. They will control the Senate
not later than two years from now,
if they do not control it after March
4. In those circumstances, it is
part of patriotic duty to vote for a
Republican President, in order that
there may be a unity among the
three factors in legislation and adj
ministration.
1t needs only to study the election
reports of four and two years ago
to be convinced that the House is al
together likely to go Republican this
time. The Democrats swept the
lower branch with a tremendous ma
jority four years ago. The split in
the Republican party caused that.
Two years passed, two years within
which Democratic tariff ideals had
been very much at the front, and
the next House ALMOST slid over to
the Republicans. Itwould have gone
Republican, as the country would
also have done, if there had been at
the same. time q Presidential cleo
ton, and a chance for a general ver-
dict on the tariff accomplishment of
the Wilson Administration. Since
that time the international situation
has complicated issues. But the
Democratic Congress did not earn
and does not possess the confidence
of the country. The realization of
its incapacity for constructive legis-
lation has been borne in upon the
country, with the result that there is
every reason to expect that the new
House will be Republican.
A Republican House and Wilson
White House would make just about
the most hopeless combination, with
which to face a difficult and danger
Gus crisis, that could be imagined
There is one way to avoid it, and
that is to give Mr.. Hughes the sup
port that the Republican party's
hold on national confidence justifies.
