PRESIDENT REPLIES
(By Associated Press.)

INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 13.-Presi-
dent Wilson yesterday replied to the
Republican charge that the Demo
cratic party is a sectional party with
the statement that ANY man who
revives the issue of sectionalism in
this country is unworthy of the con-
fidence of the nation"

assure the election of Hughes.
 Every precaution must be taken to secure an honest count of the ballots in every close state. Anybody who in inmates that Charles F.. Hughes would permit any man or group of men to attempt to steal the presidency for him is a contemptible scoundrel and knows it.
 'I say further with a full sense of responsibility to the American people that any man or group of men who at tempt to steal the presidency from Hughes will do so at their peril"
 Chairman McCvormick issued the following statement in reply to the one made by MT Wilcox:
 President Wilson is reelected and MT. Wilcox shows he is aware of that fact. His vail in reply to the charge of some imaginary person that some one expects that MT. Hughes or his managers will try to secure the election through fraud is worthy of the best traditions of the Republican party.
 "The public has had a chance to judge my conduct of the campaign and l am perfectly willing to let the people decide which side would be likely to resort to desperate meth ods."
