MT. Wilson's Disinqenuousness.

In his Shadow Lawn speech of Saturday, MT. Will departed somewhat from his smooth sounding vague, if not meaningless plaudes and discourses humanity" and indulged in some campaign talk. But his talk was disingenuous, untruthful. He repeated what less responsible democratic politicians have been stating-that the Republican party is still or again. under the control of the reactionary element as thoroughly was Chicago in June 1912 This statement, of course made to invite progressive independent voters.
 Mir Wilson knows that that statement is untrue and he knows all the world knows the reactionary element at Chicago succeeded only in one thing-the defeat of Colonel Roosevelt for the nomination Even that could have been accomplished by the re- actionaries if Colonel Roosevelt had permitted his friends throughout the country to take an active part in the Republican pre-conventon campaign
 NIT. Hughes hardly less distasteful to them than Colonel Roosevelt They sought the nomina- ton of any of half dozen candidates in prefer eNce MT Hughes, it became apparent to them that the nominee would Hughes or Roosevelt They reluctantly consented to the former They held a balance of power such the weakest element in a three-c -cornered controversy often holds
 Nor the reactionares in control of the Repub- lican campaign The foremost workers in it are men who the chief leaders of the progressves Theo- dore Roosevelt Albert J. Beveridge James R. Garfield
 
 their progressvism when Mir. Wilson was so far as his voluminOus writings disclosed a reactionary of the old type most southern statesmen are today These are the men who restored Maine to the Repub lican column and they the who giving life to the Republican campaign throughout the coun- try. They still preaching the doctrine of prog ressivism and standing sponsors for MT. Hughes if he needs sponsor.
 But he needs none. His record governor of New York is one of progressivsm and forward look ing. No governor was freer from the influences of political machinery and governor ever more his own governor than MT. Hughes.
 It is true that all Republican clements are sup porting Mir. Hughes, reactionaries and all, we have doubt that the leaders of the reactionares Chicago four years ago reactionary as they were then. But they in hopeless minority with out influence in the campaign and they will exer- else little influence in the Hughes administration
 Of all this MT. Wilson is aware. Progressives generally know it and believe their knowledge of it will make them think less of the president for his attempt to deceive them.

Ku Klus Klan Statue.

Those who have witnessed that stirring picture "The Birth of Nation" will be interested to learn that plans under for the erection of statue of a prominent member of the Ku Klux Kan the Court House lawn at Shelby, North Carolina where that organization was formed. The statue will be called that of Colonel McAfee, the Little Colonel" who was represented in the picture by MT. Henry B. walthau Colonel McAfee is the reputed founder Of the Ku Klux Klan relation of Thomas Nelson Page. author of "The Clansman," from which The Birth of a Nation" was taken, "dramatized" may say. Mir Page is said be of the prime movers if not the nstgator of the statue idea.
 Considerable opposition the movement has de- veoped throughout the country the press but inas as the press" in opposition is mostly in other states far removed from the Shelby Court House lawn quite unlikely that it will be able to inter pose any serious obstacle in the way of carrying out the project.
 There would probably not be any serious opposition to statue of Colonel McAfee, though he appears to have been only local celebrity who would probably by this time have been forgotten in his munity but for the embalming of the memory of him by his kinsman Mir Page But the statue is to be Of Colonel McAfee arrayed the habiiments the Ku Klux Klan hdeous mask robe, and all that it must be taken for granted that Colonel McAfee is the fashioned marble beneath It might as well be only Mike Jones.
 lt is the perpetuation of the memory of the ganization to which objection is made. For whatever worthy purpose the Ku Klux KIan formed, how respectable and high the founder and the original members may have been, and they were respectable and high minded, it was essentially lawless organization. 1t very naturally, after the achievement of the work for which was formed and when the original members found nothing more for them to do, perpetuated by the vicious ele- ment which under the mask and secrecy it afforded engaged in all sorts of crimes The Might Riders" Of the Southern States may be traced back to the Ku Klux Klan.
 The Charlotte North Carolna) Observer speak ing of the project says: Tt would be hard to con- ceve of statue groesquely treated The events which statue thus designed would be intended to perpetuate but Title understood by people other than our own and never will be- It is history that belongs to the past that should be recorded and stored in the archives a sealed book The erection of a statue of the class proposed would impose upon the people of this and succeeding generations the duty of perpetual explanation and defense"
 The chief mproprety consists of course in select ing Court House lawn as the place for the statue

Fire Prevention Day

This is National Fire and Accident Prevention day throughout the nation and in all the larger cities and many of the smaller or less elaborate pro grams have been arranged for its celebration. In some of them there will be shows which will be described by moving pictures the various means of fire prevention and fire fighting well as the ac- cideuts in which fires have their origin. Fire and accident prevention experts will be present and make addresses for the purpose of inaugurang campaign of education In nearly all cities and towns brush and rubbish, the of many fires, will be gathered up by the public authorities. Special fire drills will be held in the schools.
 The fire loss in the United States last year s2355sl $50 against which was insurance amounting to sl4Soooooo The annual loss by fire has increased gradually throughout the country during the last fifteen years each year showing about the increase over the previous one except in years marked by some great conagration like San Francisco in 1906 when the total fire loss of the country s5lSsO0OOO.
 It will be remembered that the depression of the following year was attributed in part to that great loss So in measure every fire loss contributes Co a depression.
 Notwithstanding the fact that injury to person and property may be somewhat compensated by fire and accident insurance the truth abides that both in the last analysis. sheer For insurance, while it aids in restoring former conditions and mnimizes loss from employment is, at best, only partial in its compensating benefits. Waste from fire losses and also from lost time remains waste although the burden Is widely distributed through fire in- surance This is also true accidents which result in personal injury but it would be folly to assume, in either instance compensation approaches in value that which is lost
 We regret that no special program has been ar ranged for this day in Phoenix beyond the gathering up of rubbish. which more less careless citizens have allowed to accumulate about their premises un aware or reckless of the dangerous possibilities that turk within.

 GOODYEAR CORDS

Goodyear Cord tires established a new worlds speed record at the 2JO mile Astor cup race at Sheepshead bay.
 September 30th, when Johnny Aitken drove his famous Peugot, Goodyear equipped, to victory over a field of 31 starters. Aitken covered the 25O miles at the terrific. rate of I04 2-3

 clips three minutes from the previous
 worlds record.

 Goodyear Cord tires. Neither leader

 TOW Of the tires on Aitken's Puegot
 were the ones which helped him to win the 300 mile sweepstakes at Cincinnati, on Labor Day, at the dedication of the Sharonville speedway.
 Aitken sprang into the lead at the
 3Sth mile and Rickenbacher assumed second place d little later. Neither driver was headed after this In all seven Goodyear equipped cars lined up 1 for the start. IL is interesting to note that none of the tires on these cars were touched during the race, those re- ! tlrlng from the race doing so on ac- | count of engine trouble
