ELECT PRES. WILSON'S MEN
MIR. HOOVER'S APPEAL.

It will perhaps be a shock to the Republicans to read in the news col umns today Food Administrator Hoover's appeal to the voters of the country to stand by the President ana to elect men in sympathy with his principles. Mr Hoover, one of the best known figures in the world to- day. the man who saved Belgium from starvation and whose office is second in importance only to that of the shipping board is, and has been. q lifelong Republican, yet he places country above party by urging his fellow citizens to support the Presi- dent in the present crisis Mr. Hoo yer, who is very close to President Wilson, realizes better. than the rest of us the truth of the statement made by Homer S. Cummings that there to destroy the head of the nation, and he does not hesitate to cast aside the bonds of partisanship and to call up- on his fellow men to help annihilate those forces.

An Excellent Nomination.
(New Haven Union)

We note with a great deal of satis- faction that former Mayor George LanderS of New Britain has permit ted use of his name on the democrat ic ticket there for state senator, He Is running against MT. Klett. AS both these gentlemen have served their constituents in the state senate, it ought to be easy for the voters ot New Britain to compare their records. If Senator Klett has ever shown any progressive tendencies In his political career we have been kept entirely in the dark with regard 70 them. We do. however know something about George LanderS and his record in the state senate, and we want to take this opportunity to say that no constituent cy ever had abler or more conScien- tious representation in the general assembly than that given by MT. Lan- ders when, he was q state senator
 Not only is Mir Landers a student of economic and social problems; but he possesses the practical and con structive ability to translate his high ideals and prog ressiVc ideas into con- structive legislation and reform. We trust that the people of his senatorial district in New Britain will have. the good judgment to return him to the state senate and in tuhs honoring him give themselves the kind of represcn- tation they ought to have there

ELECT PRES. WILSON'S MEN.
AUGUSTINE LONERGAN.

Our readers attention is called to a. letter printed elsewhere on this page which was written by Congress- man Norton. (Republican), of North Dakota, endorsing Congressman Au- gustine Lonergan for reelection and expressing the hope that the latter will retain his seat in the next con- gress to continue the splendid work he has begun The letter has a spe- cia1 import because Congressman Norton represents his state on the Republican Congressional Committee, and his laudatCry words for the Con- gressman from this district deserve the attention of Mir. Lonergan's nu- merous Republican admirers In this city and district.
 There remains little to be said fur thor Tn the premises. Congressman yesterday in the New York Herald, as d result of the straw vote taken by that newspaper.

GOOD ENOUGH FOR THE
 SOLDIERS.

Senator Lodge and Theodore Roose- welt are dissatisfied with the demands made by President Wilson on Ger many. In marked contrast is a letter from an American soldier in France printed elsewhere in this issue. The letter refers to the Presidents reply to the first appeal for peace, in the following language: ~''In todays pa per the leading story was President Wilson's reply to Germanys demand for peace. I believe it is the most wonderful note our President has sent out and no doubt there are one hun dred million more of the same oe3n- ion."
 Being on the other s18e of the At lantic ocean, the soldier was appar- ently unaware that an effort was be- ing made to discrc~4;t ais command SE~ln-Gn1eL pN d cllQue enVlOuS or the Presidents record. He could not know that this same clique had been assailing his commander-in-c chief in language they would not dare to use to the average man they met on the street. It is highly probable that if this soldier were in an audience to which the offensive remarks were addressed he would march down the middle aisle and demand a retraction
 It makes a difference whether you are soldier offering your life on the field of honor or an intriguing politi- elan. If President Wilson's notes are good enough for the soldiers why are they not good enough for the rest of us?

And, finally, the best endorseme ent of all is the fact that his every legislative act in Washington has had the approval of the Com maudcr- -in-Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States of America.

Hoover knows Mr LanderS personally, and has often publicly expressed his ap- preciaton of the effective work done by the Democratic candidate for sen- ator from this district, who has given his time and his services gratis to the Food Administration for the past eighteen months.
 Without d doubt MT. Hoover's ur- gent appeal will influence many others of his party. When a man like him, With un international rcputa- tlon, who is today supervising the task of feeding practically the whole world. comes out openly and advo- cates the election of the Democratic nominees, it is bound to produce a favorable effect for them among thinking Republicans.

VOTE!

There is only one issue in this cam- paign, namely, whether the President of the United States shall be support ed or repudiated by the people of this country. The Herald is interested only m this phase of the election. The Herald has advocated a cOmpliance with the request of the President and 1t will continue to stand back of Woodrow Wilson so long as he is in office. While The Herald's unbound ed admiration for the President, who is the greatest man in tho world to- day. makes it doubly enthusiastic in rallying to his aid, it would support any other President of the United States in the same way under similar circumstances. The President has placed his case before us. He asks our help. And he shall have it. That is the thought uppermost in the minds of all true Americans at the present moment. They should vote tomorrow because the President needs their vote. And they should vote as their conscience dictates, Keeping ever in mind the fact that their. fathers and grandfathers did not desert Washington, Lincoln and Mckinley when these Presidents aD pealed to them to show a united front to the enemy

PROHIBITION.

So far as we have been able to ob serve there has been no tfeclara tion on the part of Senator Klctt as to his views on the prohibition question. The Democratic nominee, George M Landers made it clear in public statement issued the day after he was nominated, that he is against prohibit tion by federal amendment and in favor of submitting the question to referendum. Tn view of the interest taken in the premises here In New Britain, 1t is rather remarkable that so astute a politician as Judge Klett has neglected to declare himself on this point.

NR. SPFITIASGN.

It Is safe to estimate that ever one of the 1,20O persons who hear the Democratic candidate for Cover nor here yesterday were profound impressed by his personality, hi forcefulness and the ability to pre- sent his case. As a contemporary s well puts it:
 Mir. Spellacys splendid record in the service of state and nation, the we'll known cleanliness of his private life, his unasSallable in t"grity and his fearless and hon est independence have imparted power and dignity to his hap oily expressed injunctions and to the clear and convincing pres cntation of views that spring from his active mind with thor ough sincerity. His frank and outSpoken pIea5~and rocommen- dutions have fallen upon eager ears wherever he has gone throughout the state. The decid- ed redness of the blood in his
 
 itahle impulses, which he could not conceal if he would, not only have won for him a sympathetic hearing everywhere but have turned elf-supposed foes into admirers and friends. His forth right, nan tO-man attitude on every subject and in every cir cumstanCo has gained for him a public confidence unmarred by the smallest disc ppointment,
 From" Spellacy, as he is called by thousands in the familiarity of acquaintance which he is too unostentatious and democratic to resent from the humblest of his tellows,, is an American Twin the war" citizen in favor of the greatest and sWiftcst pressure of which the mightiest force Of this regnant and all-poWerful nation is capable. But with his com acndable aggrcssiVene& in war go all the qualities which peace requires in the temperate and ju- dicious statesman. He is no pendulum.
 What other public offcial in.
 
 when a nominee for office? The leading republican newspapers of the United States have praised him and his work, VCrSiiicrS have sung his plaudits and the coun- t1v's greatest artists have made sketches and portraits of him all voluntarily and 2ratuitously. War heroes have paid him trib- ute, and the soldier vote Is his oVerwhelmingly.
 There has been no arraignment of him as the tool of any boss. Not a word has been breathed about his scrviity to any one. His political opponents have been only perfunctorily ontaecn- istic. ard thousands of Rcpubli- cans arc supporting him without surrender of party ties, because they are responsive to the con scious call Of what they feel to be a duty.
