Moreover, he was the first man
of prominence to advocate the
election Of Woodrow Wilson as
President, and for MarH years
one of the closest hieHdS and
advisers Of the present occu-
pant of the White House. Mr..
Harvey not only, proposed, Mr..
Wilson for the Presidency, but
as early as 1910 interested Uni
ted States Senator Smith, a
Democratic leader of New Jer-
sey, in Mr.. Wilson, and this re-
suited in the Wilson nomination
and election as Governor of New
Jersey.
5 Mr.. Harvey not only scomes
out for Mr.. Hughes but@gives
very intelligent reasons for his
action in the current number Of
lis North american Review
IN his judgment there are two
vital questions to be answered
before, SELECTION One i, which

Ni4. haotheE is, which of The
two aesKnated kadersA is the
more certain to preserve, pro-
tect and defend the Constitution
of;~the- United States? Such an
issue as the Democrats claim,
that Mr.. Wilson has kept us out
Of wa, and therefore is entitled
to. reelection, is brushed aside
as s. netting that has no proper
place in the, mind of the voter
Of this year. In Mr.. Harvey's
judgment, only, the most insane
partisan would venture to sug-
gest possibility of Mr.. Wilson
or Mr.. Hughes melting or invit-
ing War with any Europeon or
Asiatic Bower, and therefore
there is no fair issue between
them on this question. There
are three elements that are in,
volved in the answers TO these
two questions, those of military

and industrial preparedness, gov;
eminent by and for the people
land national honor and oppor-
I-tunity. So far as all of these
are concerned, the answer is the
same: Mr.. Hughes is the man
who should be chosen from each
and every standpoint-both as
the representative Of the Repub-
llcan party and as an individual.
The best interests Of the coun-
try arctic be served by his cleo
ton.
Mr.. Harvey calls attention to
the fact that the utter absence
of self-seeking on the part of
Mr.. Hughes throughout his en-
tire career, confirms the belief
that he does, in fact, from the
very nature of his being, stand
for "America first"
On the other hand, no less
surely and most Disappointing

qualification of personal ambi-
ftion, prove incontestably that
Mr. Wilson stands for Wilson
first. That sis. Mr.. Harvey's
opinion. In his Judgment there
IS no need toseek a conclusion
it finds ITSELF. The summing up
of the situation isathat upon the
clearly-marked ISSUES as between
the candidates, there is no rea-
son why any professed Repub-
hcan any thoughtful Progress
sive or any principled Democrat
should not, and every reason
why every patriotic Republican
should vote for Mr.. Hughes for
President.
t Such. advice from such a
source should make a deep i'm
preston upon the American cleo
torate. 1t certainly is not CIV
en- through any prejudice against
Mr.. Wilson, for it's author would
naturally be predisposed in fa-
Evor Of the President. Nor does
it come from any lack of knowl-

Harvey Redhot
for Mr.. Hughes
EspousaI by Distinguished Edi-
tor of Cause of Republican
Candidate a Significant

The avowal. of1the cause of
Mr.. Hughes by Colonel George
Harvey is one of the distinct
features of the present cam
paign. 1t would be significant
in itself that a man Of his pres
tige, who had always trained
with the Democratic party, had
espoused the cause Of the Re
publican candidate. But in MI.
Harvey's case the significance
is very much greater, as well
as the Importance ofuthee event.
He has been not only, Denro-
crat, but a Wilson Democrat.

edge Of Mr.. Wilson's methods
sand intent. The intimacy of the
two men has been too long and
too close to admit Of any lack
of knowledge on Mr.. Harvey's
part. The man who, as Mr..
'Wilson's friend, first started the
movement for him for Presi-
dent, now, after a test of Mr..
Wilson in the White House, ad-
vises the American people to
vote for Mr.. Hughes. There
should be no hesitancy on the
part of the voters to follow this
advice
Mr.. Wilson has come so thor
oughly neutral that he looks
with grave suspicion on the
American contention in any in
ternational dispute.

Easter Ball a Success.

The twelfth annual Easter ball of
the Princeton fire department at the
Arnory Monday evening was an un-
qualified success. One of the largest
dance crowds of the season was in at
tendance, and each and every one ap-
peared to enjoy every minute of the
time from the 9 o'clock grand march
to the final waltz at a. m. The music
by Cason Bros. colored orchestra was
excellent, and the midnight supper at
the Home restaurant was most appe-
tizing.
The receipts have not been totaled
as yet, but as over $50 tickets were dis
posed of, and the lemonade stand and
balcony seats brought in some cash,
it is safe to say that the total is we'll
over $170. -
