EXTRACTS from speech OF Will II.
Hays, chairman republican national
committee, before Illinois Republican
November ~.
i plead for patriotism in peace as
we'll as in war. l insist that we have
not merely that patriotism born of ex-
tremities, which burns in the souls of
men only when their country is in
danger, but the patriotism of good
citizenship, at the fireside, the pillow,
the mart, in low places and in high
places, in season and out of season.
Let us have the patriotism which
moves men to make their country's
welfare their own business and in
prosaic times of peace interest them
selves continually in the practical
politics of their community. Good
government is possible in no other
way.
1t is passing strange indeed that
men have to he urged to exercise the
first privilege of a sovereign citizen
ship-the right to help govern them
selves. Yet urged they must be, and
it is because Of this fact that most
governmental evils develop. Govern
ment functions through individuals.
These individuals are elected by the
processes of practical politics, a Sc
quence which can not be avoided. We
can have better government, only if
we interest ourselves in politics. in

government is entrusted, in having
thought and voice in it's operation,

GENERAL WOOD LEADS AS PRES
DENTAL FAvoRiTE.

If the national republican conven
ton could be held tomorrow, unques-
tlonably General Leonard Wood would
have the support OF a larger number
OF delegates than any other candi-
date and the probability is that he
would be the republican nominee for
president. In native ability, training
and experience, General Wood is the
equal of any other probable candidate.
While he is a military man, and would
therefore, be opposed to a considerable
extent on that account, his promin-
ence as a candidate is not due to his
military career so much as to his ex-
ecutive ability, sound craftsmanship
and uncompromising A~mericanism,
elements always essential and partic-
ularly necessary at this critical period
in the affairs of our country. When
the United States entered the great
war, General-Wood was the ranking
officer of the army. Long before that
date his unerring judgment foresaw
that we would inevitably become in
volved in the struggle and he urged
the government with all the ability at
his command to prepare for war. His
warnings We're not only unheeded,
but were actually resented by the
president and all others in authority.
But this did not deter General Wood
from continuing his preparedness cru
SADIE and it was through him that the
famous Plattsburg training camp was
established. He paid the penalty for
zeal in preparing the country for
war by being denied the privilege Of a
command in France, Although recog-
as ar accomplished officer and
the highest military authority in the
army, General Wood was retained in
of a training camp in the
middle west, a position usually held
officers whose age or other physi-
al deficiency rendered them unfit for
he strenuous duty at the front. The
deliberate purpose of the administra-
ion to humiliate General Wood drew
nut a storm of protest from the peo- h
lie, but the general himself accepted
t In the true spirit of a soldier. He
eceived and obeyed his orders with
MT complaint, knowing that he was
eing subjected to the greatest in /
nstice, and rave his country the same t
lithful and efficient service that has >
yer characterized his career. His .
'eatment by the administration has h
o doubt reacted in attracting to him t
luch support for the republican NOM n
lation for president, and he is today y
lie most formidable candidate among \
lie numerous republican possibilities. ii

The Two WAYS
ella Wheeler wilcox

/ must do as you do? Your way ]
Is a very good way, and still,
There are sometimes two straight
roads to a town,
One over, one under the hill.
You are treading the safe and the
well-worn way,
That the prudent choose each time;
And you think me reckless and rash
today,
Because l prefer to climb.
your path is the right one, and so is :
mine
We are not like peas in a pod,
Compelled to lie in a certain line,
Or else to be scattered abroad.
'Twere a dull old world, Of thinks, my
friend,
II we all went just one way;
Yet our paths will meet no doubt at
the end,
Though they lead apart today.
You like the. shade, and I like the sun;
You Ikea an even pace.
I like to mix with the crowd and run
And then rest after the race.
like danger, and storm and strife,
You like a peaceful time;
/ like the passion and surge Of life,
You like its gentle rhyme.
You like the buttercups, dewy sweet,
And crocuses, framed in snow;
I like roses, born of the heat,
And the red carnations glow.
/ must live my life, not yours. my
friend,
For SO it was written down:
We must follow our given paths to
the end,
But I trust we shall meet-in town.

BIG BUSINESS TO

BY Associated Press

Washington, Octui er 2S.-Thousands Of
organized workers of the District of CO.
lumbia who paraded down Pennsylvania
avenue tonight in nonor Of Samuel Com
pers, president of the American Fedora
ton of Labor, later heard the veteran
labor leader assert that big business
definitely had determined ito give labor,
because of its growing strength, a blow
between the eyes"
The attitude of the United States Steel
corporation toward the steel workers
union, he added, was only, one manifes-
tation of this determination on the Dart
of industry. Mr.. Gnmpers said that while
at the beginning uf the steel strike he
considered it "un iimely," since learning
of the plans of tao steel companies in
common with all large employers he had
changed his mind. and now the steel
strikers had his utmost sympathy. As
evidence of this sympathetic attitude he
appealed to the District of Columbia
workers to contribute TO the support of
the strikers.
The parade which preceded the mass
at which Mr. Gompers was the
principal speaker was in recognition OF
the fedora ton presidents effort on be-
half of labor and the nation during the
war Workers representing many trades
and industries participated in the parade
which required about two hours to pass.
The labor leader was introduced by Sec
rotary of Labor wilson as "a man who
above all loves his fellow men,"
