Women Deaf to Appeals
for Endorsement From
Agents of Publisher
P etition Is Ready
If Murphy Insists on Hearst,
Split in Party Is
Likely

William Randolph Hearst, in his
latest drive for the Governorship, has
been trying to get women leaders of
the suffragists to indorse him.
Any sort of an Endorsement would
satisfy the Hearst agents, who have
been besieging the women, but the
women who have been approached so
far have turned deaf ear to the vicari-
Gus pleading of the newspaper owner.
One woman identified prominently
with the suffrage movement said that
two suffragists of her acquaintance
Democrats-enrolled just "to swat
Hearst"
Eyes. guess that is the feeling OF
the average woman Democrat" said a
Tammany man to whose attention it
had been called.
Tammany believes that Hearst will
force himself upon the party. The re-
port was current yesterday that his
nominating petition was being printed
and would be circulated by the remnant
OF the Independence League - the
Hearst personal machine.
No one in Tammany Hall wants to
see Hearst enter the race. They fear if
he, does the party will be split, and that
many of the district leaders will openly
rebel Ii Charles F. Murphy tries to put
the editor OF "The American" across.
The oldtlmers remember him as an en-
emy of the party, and one who attacked
them personally as crooks, while others
oppose him because of his attitude on
the war.
Another Wisconsin Fight
All agree that If he runs the Wis
consin spring election fight will be re-
peated here in this state. His loyalty,
they forecast, will be assailed on the
strength of his written and spoken
word. His editorials, many of them
signed by him, will be repeated by his
foes, and the Democrats who oppose
him cannot see anything come out of
the fight but. split which will mar
the chances of Democratic victory in
1920.
"This is the situation with regard
to Hearst" said one of the big leaders
of Tammany Hall yesterday "Murphy
gave his word last fall that he would
support him for Governor if he would
Withdraw from the mayoralty fight and
lndorse Hylan:. Hearst agreed and
kept his side of the bargain. And any
one who knows Murphy knows that he
has never broken his word. SO, if
Hearst wants it, and Murphy can de-
liver, why Hearst will be nominated"
Tammany leaders opposed to Hearst
are looking anXiously to Washington
and upstate, especially upstate, where
there is welldefired anti Hearst ma
chine. Washington, they believe, will
keep out of the fight, at least outward
ly. So the anti-Hearst Tammanyites
are looking for Moses upstate who
will be big enough to overcome the
Hearst machine and sufficiently we'll
spoken to command the respect of the
people of the state in the event Of
nomination.
Democrats generally believe that
they have chance of carrying the
state this fall if Hearst can be elimi-
mated.

 What is it worth to you?
 Does American Liberty mean any thing in your scheme of life? If il does, just try to put money value on it
 But, you say-and you say rightly its value can not be measured in dollars and cents. It goes beyond money. It lays upon all the higher and bigger things in life It repre- sents things that no amount Of money can buy. It is-
 But hold on minute. We know all that. and still we ask you to put q money value on American Liberty How much does it mean to you?
 What would it mean, to put it other wise. if there were danger of it's being driven from you-and if MONEY. d big sum of money were the only thing that could prevent. How much would you give for Liberty the real American brand of it, under those cir eumstances?
 There is a reason for asking these questions as they may seem. And that reason lies in the conditions confronting us all today
 It Is humanly possible, since all things are possible. that the hordes of the Huns may oyerrun Europe and the whofe civilized world. If they do, the American type of Liberty will come near to vanishing from the earth. You will enjoy much diluted and sadly modified form of it, at best
 1T we are wise, we will acknowledge the danger and do our utmost to avert it. That can best be done by those of us who can not go to the front by loaning the United States Government all of our money that we can.

FARMERS BACK LIBERTY LOAN
By Alison Secor, Editor, Successful Farming.

There are about 2,000.o00 men now under arms, training to fight, and it takes lot of money to feed, clothe, transport and equip such force of consumers who previously were self. supporting. Uncle Sam cannot at once reach into the pockets of those who stay at home and draw out by tax ation enough money to pay the bills of such an army and navy. The only possible source of ready cash is to borrow from those who have 1t.
 The farmers have shown their energy in producing the largest crops and have endured hardships due to a shortage of help and l believe they will loan to Uncle Sam every dollar they can spare, thus giving full sup port to the farmers sons who are ready to make the supreme sacrifice, that we may not be conquered by such a foe as Germany
 Just as your few bushels of grain and pounds of meat will, when put with the products of all the farms save a world from starvation. so the amount of your money, put with all the money which may be loaned to the government for Liberty bonds. will prevent this great war from ending in favor of the foe. Liberty bonds are receipt for the money you lend Uncle Sam, and they bear A per cent interest.

Germany Went Wrong in Estimating the English, French and
 Americans.

Lack of understanding of other na- tions, of other peoples. has ever been the predominant weakness of the Prussian militarists Posing as lead CTS in philosophy and psychology they have nevertheless failed completely in their analysis of human nature in any people outside their own bound ary lines of dominion.
 They misunderstood the French. They blundered in their estimate of the English They muddled their dealings with the Russians. And the world at large now knows how far they missed reading us alright. They bers, of apologists rather than fight CTS. and even yet they are refusing to concede their mistake. But they know better in their own hearts.
 Uncle Sam's first rude disturbance of the Prussian serenity was his dec Prussian confidence was the rapid fire manner in which he began the up building of his armed forces. Then came the tremendous over-subscrip tion of the first Liberty Loan. an al together unexpected performance. And when this was repeated in the second Liberty Loan drive it was real ly appalling.
 Now the Prussian interest is cen tered upon what the American people are going to do for the Third Liberty Loan in the face of recent events at the front While the American troops along the firing line are emphasizing our spirit and determination with 75- centimeter guns, howitzers, machine guns, hand grenades, rifles and auto matics, 1t is up to us at home to do our shelling with dollars.
 Ours is by far the easier task. It has no savor of danger. On the con trary it Is precaution against the pos sible menace of the future. It Is sow ing seeds of security where they will grow to the benefit of both ourselves and our country.
