UPPOSING— Suppose the Republicans SHOULD win in the 11 elections, and send a Republican Congress to Washington to “help” President Wilson. Suppose the G. O. P. should win the House and control the Senate, what then? Remember the Old Guard, crushed in 1912 because it stood in the way of progressive and democratic prin- ciples. the short six vears that have elapsed, the country has trav- eled further the direction of de- cent and scientific political develop- ment than it traveled in the preced- ing sixty vears. Bear this progress in mind, do not forget that Democratic Administration Democratic Congress that made it possible, and then look ahead to a possible Republican victory this fall.

Especially is it easy to doubt whether the fact that the Republican Party had become the majority party and the Democratic Par had been placed in the position of a loyal oppo- sition party, both parties being in favor of the most vigorous possible prosecution of the war and of the conciusion of peace only on terms which would make a lasting peace probabie, would affect the influence of the Administration on European opinion. These doubts, silenced by the President of the States is at this moment in a better positlon than any other Amer- ican or any European to understand the effect of transferring the control of Congress to the Republican Party at this critical stage of the war. The replies of the Republican leaders to President Wilson's appeal, and the exhortations which ex-Pres dents Roosevelt and aft have ad- dressed to their countrymen since President Wilson's appeal appeared go to show that Pesident Wilson is right In his judgment concerning the probable effects of giving the control of Congress to the Republican Party. All these eminent Republicans are now proposing in their published proclamations to force the advocacy of a particular policy called “uncon- ditional surrender’” on the present Administration: and they assume without warrant that those two words do not describe the ultimate of the Democratic Administration. At the very momient when the Admir ! terms of unfavorably policy | dent tration is making an indispensable ef« fort to unite all the mnations which are now contending against Germany in a commnion statement the ob- jects of the war and the inevitabla peace, thes Republican leaders are attempting themselv dictate the terms of peac which shall be advpcated by the responsibla representatives of the American peo- ple. If they think and act in that way at a very critical moment while they represent a minority party in Congr how would, they treat tha Administration if they came to rep< resent the majority party? 1f they meddle in such an irresponsible and passionute manner concerning the comparatively simple question of tha right way to bring the actual fighting to an end, what will th do when the solutions of the very complicated geographical, racial, industrial, and commercial questions which will arisq out of the war come before them for discussion ? The American pegple the deepést obligations ta Wilson for the manner iw" which he has conducted both the mil« itary and the civil affairs of the Govs ernment during the past four years. He has given the United States a po- sition in human_ affairs which na other nation has ever possessed o now possesses. Patriotic voters will do well to keep this indisputable fact in mind, and to avoid doing what President Wilson thinks would dimin- ish his influence at home and abread. Every conscientious voter should take to heart the President's werds, “I am asking your support not for my own ke or for the sake of a political party, but for the sake of the United States itself, in order that itg inward unity of purpose may be evi to all the world.
