KEEPING US OUT OF WAR. ‘The president in his New York ad- dresses is bearing down hard on his peace stand, but his desire for peace is no greater than that of the entire peace ‘no more does Charles B. Hughes and when he comes to upholding the rights of the American people there is his country. than He wants record to show how he should be done. Much is sald about President Wil- thinks it son keeping us out of war, but the manner in which he has acted upon this question, even when the forelgn nations were as anxious to refrain from conflict with ‘this country as anyone in the United States was, re- flects no credit upon his forelgn poll- cles. American rights have been trodden upon with impunity gnd the retort which has come from Washing- ton is that we were “too proud to fight.” Foreign nations have played with this government, as a neutral nation, and as the North ‘American Review says, “They have kept us out of war for most excellent reasons of their The spectacle has been humil- iating but such nations have accom- plished their purposes and done so repeatedly because they had come to learn that it was an administration of words and not deeds. They discov- ered a note writer in the White House and they have proceeded to take ad- vantage of his policy. Instead of keeping us out of war such a policy as this administration has put forth has been the means of showing the coun- try the need of selecting a president who will stand firmly for American rights and one who means what he says, Such a man will keep the dan- ger of war at the minimum and give the greatest assurance of honorable peace. GREECE HAS REASONS. Greece may or may not have been seeking an excuse for entering the war, and thus overcome the sympathy which has been manifested from the start by King Constantine for the German cause, but if such was the case there appears to be no further reason for delay, especially since an understanding has been reached with the entente powers regarding the atti- tude towards the allied army and re- sistance to the efforts of the army at Saloniki is to cease in the future. Greece had good and sufficient rea- sons for entering the war against Byj- garia when it attacked Serbla. Such a step it was, as a matter of fact, in duty bound to take then and there. It recelved added reason when Greek garrisons in the northeastern part of the country were taken prisoners though the countries were not In a state of war. ' These causes for war were furnished by Bulgaria, which it is well known to the Greeks has viewed with jealous eye the territory which they secured during the Balkan war, but added reasons for joining the entents have been furnished by Germany, not only by its offensive in Serbia but by the unwarranted attacks which have re- cently been made upon Greek vessels by German submarines. ‘The passen- ger steamer Angeheliki was sent to the bottom without warning and 50 lives were lost. That has been fol- lowed within a few days by the tor- pedoing of the Kiki Issaias from which four of the crew were drowned. Thus it Greece is simply looking about for a cause it has been furnished several times over by both Bulgaria and Ger- many. EDITORIAL NOTES, According to all accounts Captain Koenig knows what it means to be rocked in the cradle of the deep. The man on the corner says: The only things which are not going up and staying there are the leaves. The attack on the Marina makes it evident that we are approaching en- other note writing and finger shaking perfod. General von Hindenburg claims that Germany could fight for 30 years, but what would be the virtue of it it they lost in the end? The claim, is mede that the presi- dent has kept us out of war. Why not put forth the assertion that Carranza has kept Mexico out of war? Those in Germany who have been urging sharper U-hoat warfare have suspended their agitation end they are to be congratulated on their move. Secretary Baker may claim that ‘Washington's soldlers at Valley Forge were no better than Mexican bandits, but he cannot claim that they were “too proud to fight” The Wheeling railroad has been sold for $12,000,000, a reduction of 38,000,- 000 from the price first fixed by a fed- eral court. And this in the days of unprecedented prosperity. The abnormal’ conditions which a company the present prosperity ta this country make it evident that there is need of just such a stabilizer as a protective tarift will give.

O to the ever present fear of strikes and agitations from the un- settled industrial conditions caused by the enormous munitions contracts, the intended social service of Yale under- graduates is more than appreciated by the labor leaders. - That Sir Rabindrenath Tagore, the world famous Bengali post and Nobel prize winner, is to lecture here Wed- nesday evening, December 6th, was the announcement made last night by the Dramatic Association, on whose aus- pices he will speak. = Sir Rabindran ath arrived in Seattle some weeks ago and is now on his way east, glving lectures. and is expected to arrive in New York the first part of November. His visit to Yale will provg one of the most_interesting everits of the year. Tagore was in the country in 1912, but at that-time his poetry was known among Americans only to a few stu- dents of eastern letters. In the sum- mer of 1913 he was the guest at a re- ception given #h his honor, in London, by Mr. Willlam Butler Weats and a few other writers and artists. In November of the same year he was awarded the Nobel prize for literature. The Tagores are perhaps the illus- trious family in India. The father of the poet, Debendranath Tagore, Was, & great religious leader the founder of a sect. He was known as Maharsl which means “great sage.” The poet's grandfather was Dwarkanath Tagore, a' philanthropist and social reformer, a founder of the Land Holders Soci- ety. Other Tagores who have achieved fame are, Prosonno Kooman Tagore, founder and president of the British Indfa Assoclation; Raja Sir Sowrindra Hohun Tagore, the founder of the Ben- gal Academy of Music; Abindranath Tagore, a distinguished painter; and Maharaja Ramanath Tagore, a dis- tinguished writer and political leader. In the heavi men presidential straw vote ever held at Yale, Charles E. Hughes yesterday wen an-overwhelm- ing victory of ihe decisive majority of 727, ‘polling one tHousand, three hu: dred and twenty-six votes tp Wilsonis five hundred and ninety-nine. Ben- son, the Socialist candidate, received five votes, and Hanly, noniinee for the Prohibitionist Party 2. The polls were open from eight to six and a total of 1,832 ballots were cast out of a_poss ble 3,815. All members of the Univer- sity were eligible to vote. Practically all the straw votes held at the larger eastern universities this fall have resuited in the victories for Hughes. At Harvard he secured 1,142 votes to Wilson's 635, and at Prince- ton, which bas always come out strongly, for Wilson- he received §73 to Wilson's 535. Brown, of which Hughes is an_alumpus, gave the re- publican candidate an ~overwhelming victory. In the straw votes at Yale, Har- vard, and Princeton last spring just before the nominating convention, Roosevelt triumphed at Yale and Har- vard, and Wilson at Princeton, Hughes and Root running third and fourth re- #pectively in each election. The fig- ures were: at Yale—Roosevelt 934 Wilson, 491; Hughes 365; Root, 133; ot Harvard—Roosevelt 660; Wilson §91; Hughes 348; Root 40; at Prince- ton—Wilson 387: Roosevelt 271; Hughes 121 and Root 4. At the time of the presidential elec- tion four years ago straw votes were held at Harvard and Yale, but none at Princeton.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR The Kind 6f a Man Needed at the Helm. Mr. Editor: It has been stated that the president has said, that the muni- tion business constitutes only one per cent of the business of the country, vet the munition business has set the pace for high-priced labor, and all other lines of business are affected by t. The railroad employes are the high est pald of any set of men in the whole world. The president has set the pace by granting them an addi- tional 20 per cent. to therl wages. The Railroads must in turn raise thelr freight and passenger rates to meet the additional expense and the general public will pay the bills, High wages causes “high cost of living,” and re- acts on the laboring man as he is the consumer and has to pay for his ad- vance in wages with interest, as the cost of'a commodity is based on the cost of production plus the interest on the investment, and when the wheel turns round loaded with the cost of the higher wage and the interest on the money necessary to handle the business, the laborer gets less for his labor in the necessities of life than before, and when he sees this condi- tion, he finds that the cost of living has ‘more than kept pace with his in- creased wages, and he emands another raise, and again makes things worse. When will the laboring man stop and do a little thinking for him- self, instead of being led by some agi- tator, who knows as little about laws of business as himself, but who -is cosntantly stirring up @ muss, and throwing the business of the country out of balance. The president has humiliated the nation by causing a law to be enacted in great haste at the per- emptory demand of less than ore- half of one per cent of the population and without arbitration, or any proper considerations of the merits of the case. Congress has adjourned, with the greatest stain to its record in the history of the nation. Historians will undoubtedly give the president and congress their just award. The nation has been humiliated by the Adamson act, and. the people will have to bear the burden of vastly higher cost of Hving, for every man, woman and child,- . Wha- consumes- 3 morsel of bread, or any other com- modity, which in any way is affected by the ‘cost of transportation will have to pay tribute to those railroad men. The strike which was threatened even should it have materialized, would have been of temporary moment, but the course taken by the president in insisting upon this Adamson law, will bring a permanent burden upon the people. We need a man at the nelm, who has the courage of his convictions, who cannot be rattled by any demand, a companied by a threat. One who will stand firmly for righteousness and jus- tice for all, one who will not compro- mise the honor or dignity of the na- tion, at the demand of any man or set of men, a man who will maintain an honorable, firm and dignified position among the nations, that our zreat na- tion may not become the laughing stock of the nations of the earth. A man who while trusting in the arm of Divine Providence as did our forefath- ers who did not fafl to use the means for their protection and support, a man who cannot be rattled by a mob, a man of peace, but one who cannot be hu- miliated by an overt act of any foreizn antion. Will the people elect such a man for our next president? C. P. BRADWAY West Stafford, Conn., Nov. 1. Some Questions for tHe Democrats to Answer. Mr, Bditor: With your kind per- mission of permitting space, I should like to have these simple questions that are contronting the voters an- ewered satisfactorily to me by some worthy democrat. 1 am only one of the public that is greatly concerned in the coming election, which means so much to us as a natlon, but 1 should like each and every one answered with a full, intelligent explanation regard- ing the cause of the said question. 1. Why wasn't our flag_respected, to say naught of a salute, from Mex- ico? 2. Why &id our_troops, sent to the border to capture Villa, dead or alive, return empty handed, besides costing ihe nation an emormous eum that is taxable upon its people, who get ab- solutely nothing from sald expedition? 3. Why aren't our soldiers, thou- sands in number, capable of capturing one bandit especially wanted. or, hav- ing failed in their mission, why are they permitted to return until wrongs done to_us have been righted? 4. Why were ammunition supplies sold by our government to the Mexi- can government, that they may be used to kill our soldiers as well as citizens? 5. Why were the U. S, warships or- dered away from Vera Cruz, thereby cutting off protection to our helpless citizens there? - 6.

Why does Wilson cry “America first” and then put it last? 18. . If America comes first, why does he not protect us, instead of lifting the tariff for the benefit of foreign nations? 19. Why are food necessities al- lowed to go to other countries, resulf- ing in a scarcity at home and at ex- orbitant prices? When we have such splendid facilities to grow our own food products, why can we not obtain them In preference to outsfders? It is similar to a father leaving his estate of $10,000 to missionaries and leaving his family to scratch for themselves. 20. When the Underwood tariff be- came effective, Oct. 4, 1913, why was there such an_ overflowing number of unemployed? Is this a government act which speaks of the people, by the people, and for the people? 21. Why the embargoes, telephone tax and revenue stamps, if we have been kept out of war? Why are we obliged to pay prices for home-grown products that exceed war prices, if we are not at war? 22. 'What does Wilson mean by rid- iculing a navy, then declaring for the greatest one in the world, and then changing again? Why does he change his mind so often? Why should he appoint a newspaper man, of all peo- ple, as _secretary of our navy? 23. Why does he dodge when con- fronted with questions of vital impor- tance? 24. When pledged to a single term of office, why is he sceking a reap- pointment? 25. How can he expect German- American votes when he plainly favors BEngland in time of war between the two countries? Why did he oppose woman suffrage and then favor it .at a time when votes counted? Why did he raise the embargoes and discontinue the use of revenue stamps, just before the time to vote? 26. Why are his campaign declara- tions regarded by republicans and some of the democrats as “molasses to catch flies with?” 27. Why have a great number of democrats turned against him? . 28. Why can’t he be trusted or de- pended upon, and why doesn’t he do as he agrees to? 1 should like snifable and reliable references from any democrat who can vouch for nis chosen leader that our country will be entirely and positively safe in Wilson’s hands, that our peo- ple's lives and our flag shall be re- spected, that we shall be sirictly neu- tral according to our word, until the end of the gweat war, that the cost of living -shall be reduced within our 1 i 38 i of the péople by standing words, and they have the not only an honorable presidential candidate e and I cannot give my support to man whom I bave every reason judge, in four yeare' time, has kept his word and promise, faithfully given to a trusting nation that gave him the honor: of the highest position obtainable by an American citizen.

Barrett Wendell, perhaps the best known professor of English in the country, was appealed to by the Woodrow Wilson Independent League of Boston for fnanclal help. = His let- ter by way of reply is a cha: - tic, vigorous statement of e Views of ‘Wilson: “Your request that 1 subseribe to the Woodrow Wilson Independent Lea- Sue was probably sent me under the misapprehension that I am what is called an ‘Independent voter. In fact 1 bave not been so since 1896, when_the nomination of Mr, Bryan by the Democratic pary convinced me that this party could not safely be in- trusted with the government of the country. What has ensued, during twenty years, has strengthened this opinion. “Even were I an ‘Independent voter’, however, 1 should not be disposed to vote for Mr. Wilson. “In general, his domestic policy has seemed to me mischievous, So far as 1 can percelve, it has greatly in- flamed class prefudice; and it has placed in many important offices men who, whatever their personal virtues, do not comand the confidence of the country. To go no further, another four years of such appointments as his would in all probability com- pletely destroy public confidence in the Supreme Court of the United States. “As for the ‘happiness’ which you state him to have “contributed” to myself and my family, I have failed to perceive it. Increased and pettily vexatious taxation, greatly increased cost of living, and the virtual con- scription, for unhealthy and _doub! fuily useful military service, of young men who had enlisted in state mili- tia, when no such impressment was in view, bave been among my domes- tic experiences most traceabls to his infiuence. “As to his Mexican policy, which vou warmly approve, his interference with the Huerta government in Mex- ico, and the Ijnd mission, appeared to ‘me the most wanton picees of in- ternational insolence in our history. They were defensible only as prelim- naries to an armed oecupation of, Mexican territory, if not of annexa- tion, neither of which seemed to me desirable. His subsequent Mexican policy, including a disregard of Amer- ican life and property whieh I be- lieve unprecedented, seems _conson- ant with this beginning only from the circumstance that it has failed to command, at home or abroad, a parti- cle of respect from anybody but his i -y ; gel lftE i means, and that cvery citizen shall have . perfect “satisfaction. and confi- dence in the head of the nation.
