't affair*, a, method that revolted -Bryan, finally exhausted the pattenee « t Lansing, and is now straining the ingenuity of CoSry, that it canot contemplate for a moment the possibility of four years more of Wilsonism in the State Department. r There can be but one explanation | of tbe enmity toward this country that is now openly or secretly entertained by "all tbe leading nations of the earth, and by 'most of the minor * peoples. In the Autumn of 1918, we were, by force of circumstances, the "most popular nation on the globe. It required considerable ingenuity along i the lines of futile rainbow-chasing of r visionary and impracticable projects, to destroy the good-will we had won • from mankind at large through our " altruistic endeavors in hehalf of civilization. But our popularity has been wantonly destroyed, we are looked upon with fear, suspicion, and, perhaps, considerable contempt by the powers of 'the earth and the more we interfore, in an arbitrary manner, with European affairs the more we intensify the antagonism felt toward us by the peoples over-seas. The Denocrate are said to be looking for a compaign song. Something along the lines of the following might serve them: The Double Cross! The Double Cross! Upon my breast I wear it. I'm sometimes Dry and sometimes Wet, And sometimes both I swear it. I am for Suffrage or against — You'll not know what I'm thinking. I am for Wilson when I talk, But Murphey knows I'm winking. The Democracy is worried about ' the South. It seems to be losing its last chance to keep the "lid" on "solid." Governor Cox's speech of aocaptanc* j fills two pages of an ordinary news-] and should be and we trust will j i be, given the widest possible consideration by the Republican commit- 1 tee as a Republican campaign docu- 1 making such a gpeecji^es that can be | meat. - No .man who is capable of! any possibility jbeWlectft President ' < It is mostly a gravely ill-temptred ti- 1 rade of ao probative or argumentative ■ value. Never before In the history of the republic has a candidate for any . ogiee been guilty of utterances j I 1 not merely utterly undignified but so wretchedly Mnisive. What tangible points the man makes we do not yet know. The speech was not accompanied by any expurgated bunttnary', , and it will be a dreary job to extract . from the entanglement of rhetoric, < vilification and demagoguery what- . ever there is in it which "Can be got hold of. We had expected something which while controversial was dignified and clear, and sincerely regret the impossibility of treating the de- ; live ranee with respect. We shudder at the thought of such a man writing an official state paper. We can only say ( that the Cox mind runs with the ( Wilson mind in respect to the League ( of Nations. Our friend Cox, Democratic presi- ■ j dential nominee, the Parker of 1920 ■ should hale a censor. So far as the ; public is concerned there is no par- ; ticular suffering, for he is adding to ; their amusement every day, but from ] the standpoint of his own dignity and ' political welfare, there should be ' somebody to tell him occasionally ' what not to say. His $15,0000,00 ' publican campaign fund, for instance ' very childish and small townish. It indicates a guilty knowledge of such things. He has been, very 1 properly "called" by the Senate Investigating Committee and will have produce some facts to support his assertions. . I If Cox had possessed sufficient individuality and strength of character ( to announce if elected, he intended' to i de Wilsonize the State Department at once, he would have added to his strength at the polls. An it is the mantle he has donned, spotted it is by the mud from countless fiaseoes, has doomed him to one of the worst -defeats any Presidential Candidate of party ever received. In his congratulations to Governor former Secretary of the ■ Interior Franklin K. Kane, says: people want to hear a definite , word as to home affairs as well as , foreign." Evidently Mr. Kane recog- , nixes the difference between Ameri- 1 can ism and Internationalism. A CORRECTION ... MED 4Ju© C I MND , iiSjSSStiSE&SS! * "Mw aM. v v ~ ■

Cox as the next President of the United States anBt becomes my duty to call upon you to help. More than are going to fight as wfe never fought before to kee*atbe hirelings of the Anti-Saloon League out of office ; to elect Congressmen in the twelve Congressional districts of the State who will vote to amend the Volstead Act so as to permit the sale of light wine and beer : to elect Assemblymen and State Senators who will keep New Jersey from ratifying the Eightenth Amendment and prevent the passage of any law concurring in the Volstead Act in its present form. . The nomination of Governor Cox of Ohio for the presidency by the Democrats is a big victory for our interests and it can be attributed to a great degree to the activity of our trade organizations here in New Jersey and throughout the nation. Governor Cox is a pronounced "wet" and he can be relied upon to approve an amendment to the Volstead Act as suggested above. It is how up to our trade organizations to stand unitedly behind the ticket of Cox and Roosevelt and roll up such a majority as will show convincingly that the public well is in our favor. Are you going to help? Of course you are. This is going to be the greatest political fight in the history of the United States. Your liberty and mine has been taken from us. Our business has been unjustly confiscated. The rights of the people have been seized and they are lined up with us in the mighty struggle that is soon to be decided by the battle of the ballot. The recent decision of the United States Supreme Court has thrown the question of Prohibition Bquarely into politics. It is the vital issue in the Campaign that is now under way. The prohibitionists tried to keep the question out of the campaign. They feared the vote of an outraged and indignant public. It is up to us — members of the organized liquor trade — to force the fight. That is just what we are doing. We have issued the challenge. The Anti-Saloon League is forced to fight. It has made an appeal for a $30,000 fund to elect dry Congressmen who will uphold the Volstead Act and dry candidates t4 the State Senate and Assembly to force ratification of the Eighteenth Amendment on New Jersey. There is no question About the Anti-Saloon League's ability to raise the amount askedT^&ow much can we raise? We must have money at once to carry on the work that we have planned. Do not think for a moment that there is plenty , of time to give between now and election. The fall will be too late. Money must be had immediately If we are to maintain ( our headquarters and continue the propaganda that is neces- ( aary in the drive to win public opinion. This >s the second ap- i peal that I have sent you. The first you evidently overlooked. I would not bother you now if it were not for the fact that your ( own interests hang in the balance, just as much as mine. Let } me beg of you to remain loyal to the cause to the finish. Make , thi« your last contribution if you will" but give — give something, i Your record on the roster of your local associations and , also on that of tbe State League showed that you have been loy- i al and regular in the past Do keep that record unsullied to the < very end.

Yet Democratic Candidate for $ Vice Presidency Slanders Great Leader's Memory. v ' MAKING FUTILE ATTEMPT TO WIN ON OLD ISSUES Fifth Cousin Removed Roooevelt Not # Ablft to Convince Followers of T. R. by Spacious Arguments. By SCOTT C. BONE. Touring tbe country as, a candidate for Vice President. Franklin D. Roosevelt Is 'vainly endearorine to Invokf tbe progressive spirit of 1912 In sup* port of Wilsonism and the election #f tbe Democratic ticket In November. What would the real Roosevelt— • Theodore Roosevelt — the Immortal T. B- — say to his followers were be alivft today? . Gone, he left burning words which tell all too plainly what his attitude would be at this time. He abhorred Wilsonism. Just as be abhorred Danlellam. with both of which Franklin D. Roosevelt hsa been Identified as an under Secretary. Condemned Wilsonism. Theodore Roosevelt condemned Wllsnnlsro and the whole Wilson administration In unsparing terms. Read anew what he said at Cooper Union on November 3, 1916: "I bave been assailed because 1 have criticised Mr. Wilson. I have not said one thing -of him thai was not absolutely accurate and truthfnl. "I have not eald one thing of htm which I did not deem It necessary to. say because of tbe vital Interests of - this republic. "* "I have criticised him because I bo* lleve be has dragged In tbe dust whst . was most sacred In our past and has jeopardized the most vital hopes of„ our future. . . . "I criticise blm now bees rise be haa^ adroitly and cleverly and with sinlstftf^ ability appealed to all that Is weakest., | and most unworthy In the Amerlcaov: character ; and »lso because be hag' adroitly and cleverly and with sinister" ability nought to mislead many men.', uud women who are neither weak dot^. unworthy, but who have been misled* by a shadow dance of worda. "He hts made our statesmanship a thing of empty elocution. "He has covered bis fear of standing for the right behind a veil of rhetorical phrases. "He has wrapped the true heart Of . the nation In a spangled ahroud of rhetoric. "He has kept the eyes of the people. dazzled so that they know not what Is real aud what Is false. So that they , turn, bewildered, unable to discern the difference between tbe glitter that veneers evil and tbe stark realities of courage and honesty, of trutb and strength. "In the face of tbe world be has covered this nntlon'6 face with shame as with a garment." So much for Theodore Roosevelt's opinion of Wilson and Wilsonism In support of which Franklin D. Roosevelt. life long Democrat, would now Invoke the progressive spirit of 1912! Abhorred Danlellam. And what did Theodore Roosevelt think of Daniels' administration of tbe Navy Department of which the Demo- J crat. Franklin D. Roosevelt, has been ■ a more or leas conspicuous factor and ■ P«rt? I Id a speech on "Americanism and I National Defenae" at Chicago, Octo- 1 ber 26, 1916, Theodore Roosevelt said : J "More harm has been done to the navy by tbe politicians In power during tbe last three years than In the preceding thirty. Whatever good has been accompllahed In the navy during the last three years haa been done by naval officers, who, In most cases, have snubbed and puntgh^d for their proposals as long as 'twas aafe to do ; whereas Mr. Daniels now turns and claims credit for what was thus forced him. j . J "In short, throughout President Wilson's term there has been neglect or positive maladministration In connection with departmental organization In nary yards, aeronautics, mines and torpedoes. and In all other matters affecttbe efficiency of tbe fleet and tbe enthusiasm of Its officers and men . . Tbe activity sod energy at tbe Navy Department under President WUern baa been primarily concentrated span sckemai aimed at in |*HI^ er . advertising."
