By Associated Press to Every Evening

By Associated Press to Every Evening
Trenton, N j.. Oct Ex-Governor
Edge has issued statement criticising
President Wilson's action in urging sup
port for the Democratic Senatorial candi-
dates IN New Jersey
Il had hoped, said the Governor s
statement, 'that when President Wilson
advised that politics be adjourned the
gavel had fallen on politics in the Presi-
dents home State at least. 1t seems,
however, that not merely the Democratic
candidates, but likewise the President
himself, desire that politics should be
reconyened
After calling attention to the fact that
he was elected two years ago by the
largest majority ever given a governor
in New Jersey, the statement said:
Il regret that the President has seen
fit to enter into the State campaig
from the standpoint OF personal ad-
vantage, perhaps, | should welcome it.
History may repeat itself Who
knows?'

Papers Praise 1t,
By Associated Press TO Every Evening


Basel. Oct. 24-President Wilson 5
reply TO Austria's note has had an over
whelming effect in Vienna, according to
a dispatch from the Austrian capital by
the Frankfort Zeitung. Not only was
there a violent panic in financial circles
but the note was considered IN political
Quarters as being extremely humlllating
for the Dual Monarchy.
Rome. Wednesday Oct 25.-All the
newspapers here carry columns of com
ment on President Wilson's reply TO
Austria.
The Epoca says President Wilson
must be the supreme arblter between
the allies and their enemies, adding that
America, being entirely disinterested if
an armistice should be concluded. can be
considered almost outside OF the con-
flic1. and thus best adapted for har-
monizing interests among the allies and
for imposing conditions upon the enemy
in accordance with the fundamental
principles of reorganized world. :
The Corriere d Italia considers that the
whole problem Is based upon whether
the Austrian dynasty still has time TO
come to an agreement with its OWN
peoples.
The Tribuna says Mr.. Wilson's reply
