 Hope is more than a sunshiny disposition. It more than knack of looking the right side of life. It is a bigger thing than attitude ex- pectancy. It is a substantial mood than the MT. Micawber habit of waiting something to turn up"
 Hope is a vision of the perfect day. It is see ing things going be when God has His with the world, and living if He way already. Hope is the practice of optimism It program of the stars.
 We saved by hope. We are not saved by despair. We never climb up to anything better by giving way to Encouragement.

 The who build a better world take counsel their campaign in harmony their vision of what they believe the world is going be when God has His with it. and they bank everything on that
 They fail than God can resign Hope sees the unseen It is the vision invisible It is divine.

REPUBLICANS INSURE
ECONOMICAL CONDUCT

Washington.-Noto one man in ten
thousand realizes the enormous ex-
penses run up by the present Govern
ment. The disbursements are roughly
$15,000,000 day, more than a year
after the war. In 1914 the people
expostulated because the daily dis
bursements by the Treasury had
reached $2,OOO,OO0 How gladly would
the people groaning under the impo-
sitions of profteers and the burden Of
taxes welcome a return to those hal
cyon days! Congress and the new Ad-
ministration will have to deal with
the reduction of Government expendi-
tures
The same party that has swelled
them returned to power will never re-
duce them, because it claims the gov
ernment is being economically admin
istered. The Republican party will
delight in reducing these enlarged ex-
penses for clerk hire, and the 1nsa-
table bureaus that have been built up
into money spending machines. BY
holding in their hands all lines Of ex-
penditures the new Congress and new
Executive working together will cut
down excessive items and eliminate
others to All aggregate of hundreds
of millions of dollars.

NATION DEMANDS
THOROUGH CHANGE.

Chicago, Oct. If one were re-
qu1red to name single factor which
is doing more than any other to work
toward Republican success in Novem-
Der, he would probably have to say:
Determination of the public to have
a change and to get away from Will
son1sm.
Reports from all quarters tell of this
feeling, at once desire for change
and a determination to bring 1t about
at the polls November 2.
Whether 1t be from the central west.
the far west, the east or the south, the
reports tell of this seeking for a
change. The desire for a change is
born of dissatisfaction, dislike and dis
gust felt by the voters toward the Will
son administration and the things 1t
has done and left undone.
Mr.. Cox Is looked on as q man who
II he were elected would follow the
track of Mr.. Wilson. In fact, he has
declared himself in complete accord"
with Mr.. Wilson.
The public, by all accounts. is net
looking for a man who will go along
with Hr. Wilson or the Wilson policies.
