* in the service of mankind.” WILSON'S BIG ISSUE Idea, First ane at Omaha, Was Amplified at Indianap- olis and Clinched at Chicago. IS PROGRESSIVE MOVE. Wonderful Greeting in Mid- West Metropolis Arouses En- thusiasm of Wilson Staff. CANTON, O., Oct. 20.—With echoes of tho greatest demonstration ever Yendered him etill ringing in his ears, , President Wilson is returning home to-day. He and all his leutenants are happy as a result of the Chicago visit. “The greatest yet,” Secretary Tum- ulty said with unrestrained en- thuadasm. “An ovation from start to finish. The women in this part of the coun- try are thoroughly aroused to the is- @ucs of the campaign and they want President returned to office,” was headquarters East ond West. There is no doubting now that the President has embarked upon a de- termined effort to bring out as the one big issue of the campaign ‘a new nationalism,” first forcibly set forth in his Omaha address and later amplified in his Indianapolis speeches, Yesterday the idea stood out in fur- ther exposition of this theme, In the Press Club spe at Chicago he em- hasized the need of uniting the, Progressive forces to accomplish the/ urposes of American business, In| is second address he urged co-opera- tion of capital and labor to serve the ond which h id must be served by the United States, showing the! world how to place the cause of labor yon @ par with that of the employer and the rights of humanity; “above the rights of sovere Finally, in his spe Yards pavilion last night, where he was greeted by the greatest and most demonstrative throng that has heard him at any time since the campaign opened, the President further en- larged upon his theme and said that men who come to this country are ex- pected “to put a new affection, a new allegiance, above every other affoc- tion and allegiance, in a triumphant| illustration of the spirit of America In this effort to unite the people of the country for the purpose of accom- plishing the big task which, he says, will face America when the war i9 ~ over, the President is making an ap- Peal to all “forward looking progres- Breathe Freely!

CLOGGED NOSTRILS OPEN, HEAD COLDS AND GATARRH VANISH City Wiil Round-Up Its ‘Meanest Man,’ JUSTICE JOHN FORD, Domestic Dé: Desertion Bureau Will Be New Feature of Local Government and Will Punish Heartless Ab- sconders From the Do- mestic Roof. By Marguerite Mooers Marshall. Father Knickerbocker {s after the fathers! . The Meanest Man, the domestic defaulter who deliberately leaves the children for whose existence he is responsible to suffer hunger and cold, may no longer go his selfish and cowardly way. The establishment of a Desertion Bureau to arrest desert- ing fathers and compel them to support their families has just been recommended by the SubBudget Com- mittee of the Board of Estimate. The bureau will be associated with the Bureau of Soctal Investigations of the Department of Charities, and will be run for six months ag an experiment. But it is almost certain that such an Institution will not only be of great assist ance to poor mothers and their little ones, but will met actually save the city money. Deputy Commissioner of Charities Doherty will be in charge of the new bureau, and he will be allowed a bureau chief and two assistants. All three will have police powers and will be able to obtain and serve warrants against the fadeaway fathers, These men even may be extradited from other States, and if they refuse to contribute to the sup- port of their children they may be put in prison “There is no question of the need for such a Desertion Bureau, and of the good it may accom- plish,” @ high official in the De- partment of Charities told mo. “For years private and semi- public charitable organizations have been trying to bring back absconding fathers of families, for enforcing the law against such delinquents, DETECTIVES WILL TRACE THE ABSCONDERS. “The men attached to the new bureau will be able to proceed mill- tantly against the men who desert fragrant balm dissolves by the heat thetr childr of the nostrils; penetrates and heals bes Uri omicars) willi:do, the inflamed, swollea membrane | 'tePsive detective work in each cas: which the nose, and | Teported.

C.: “Doar Mr, President—You will per- haps recall at the Press Club dinner in New York, I told you that I was seriously thinking of voting for you. Well, after months of delibergfion, in- ciuding two months in tho solitudes of Alaskan mountains, I have finally concluded to do so. “Since my first vote for Blaine, in 1884, I have consistently voted for the Republican candidates for Presi- dent, including Mr. Taft, in 1912. “But this is an election which de- mands of every citizen the casting off | of partisan ties and a meretless search of conscience to determine how his voto may unselfishly and honestly be cast to serve best the interests of the United States of America, with- out regard to the effect it may have upon any other country or any for- eign interest. “L have endeavored to bring my mind to view the issucs from such a standpoint, and have concluded that it Is my patriotic duty to vote for you, “In my opinion, it would be most unwise to change the national Ad- ministration in the midst of this une precedented world erisis, “Moreover, | would be false to my Nfelong allegiance to the cause of the plain people if I failed to support you, to whom is mainly due the long list of progressive and beneficent laws enacted during your Administration, Sincerely yours, JOHN FORD.” While Justice Ford would not be interviewed concerning his letter, it Goy, Hughes into the present Public Service Law. After a hard fight against amend- ments that would have emasculated the Ford Franchise Tax Bill, so that perpetual franchises for new sub- ways might be granted to the traction interests, they were de- feated by Senator Ford. He drafted the Elsberg bill, which gave the city absolute control over new subways, coupled with the power to equip and operate them, It was while Mr. Hughes was Governor and Mr, Wiil- cox Chairman of the Public Service Commission that the beneficent pro- visions of this bill were eliminated as a preliminary to the carrying out of the deal by which the dual aubway 1s to pass into the hands of the trac. ton interests. Justice Ford was sent to the Senate fas an Independent Republican in 1895! during tho spilt in the Grand Old Party between Thomas C, Platt's ade herents and the followers of Mayor Strong and William Brookfield. He was elected and re-elected from the thea Nineteenth District. He was elected to the Supreme Court in 1906. BIG INCREASE IN WAGES.
