The country will decide.
Mr.. Wilson wants only rubber
stamps--his rubber stamps-in Con-
gress.
Mr., Wilson says he has no thought
of suggesting that any political party
Is paramount in matters of patriot
ism but he does suggest It, and he
suggests further he alone is para
mount in intelligence"
Continuing Mr.. Hays declares one
OF the Presidents purposes Is to Sc
cure power to settle the war pre-
cisely as he and his sole, unelected,
unappointed, unconfirmed personal ad-
wiser may determine"
Another purpose he attributes to
the President is commitment to free
trade with all the world. thus Civ
ing to Germany out of hand the
fruits of a victory greater than she
could win by fighting an hundred

Wilson to get it for her as he pledged
himself to do in one OF the few of
his famous articles which is explic-
able. Germany understands that. See
the New York World, spokesman of
the Administration, OF last Saturday
and read the testimony of Henry c.
Emery, former head of the tariff
commission, just returned from seven
months in Germany. The German
people he says, seemed to realize
that in President Wilson lay the only
salvation. They have turned to him
in the belief that he is the one great
political leader who can be trusted to
make a permanent peace which shall

What worse than nonsense, then. is
the Democratic campaign cry that the
election Of a Republican Congress,
pledged to unconditional surrender
and protection of American indus

to assent TO a negotiated peace and
free trade would bear cheer TO Ger

unpatriotic.
Mr.. Wilson calls upon the Repub-

their representatives in Congress who
have proved true and loyal patriots.
Are you going to do It? Answer with
your votes.
Mr.. Wilson forces the Republican
party to lie down or fight. I say
fight. Answer with your votes.
Mr.. Wilson is for unconditional
surrender-yes, for the unconditional
surrender to himself of the Republi-
can party, of the country. OF the
alles-au to him. as the sole arbiter
and master of the destinies OF the
world Do you stand for that? An

Make an Asset of War.
The war is Democratic as
set" shouted Vice President Mar
shall. "and they have made every
effort to make it so. despite the
earnest Republican insistence that
we have no contest as to anything
that touches the war except that
contest as to who best can serve. who
most can give.
This is a call to all loyal Re-
publicans, proud in their patriotism,
to stand by their country. and their
candidates, and to let the world
know that America spurns autocracy
no less at home than abroad. And
will uphold her allies in whatever
reparation they may exact for the
frightful outrages inflicted upon
them by the accursed Huns.
I'VE are fighting in France to
make certain forever that men may
have the right to govern themselves.
Here, where we have that right, we
shall exercise it. now and always.
America was created for that
very privilege.
America will not be denied it
now.
America will answer with her
