His international policies have given ue peace with honor; his do- mestio policies have given us pros- perity and justice, Not one ot those who oppose him has dared to file a bill of particulars against him; not one hss had the manhood to say boldly what he would not have done that Woodrow Wilson has done, or what he would have done that Woodrow Wilson has not done, Only general attack, only blanket criticism, only peevish fault finding only base alliance with every foreign oountry that is in controversy with the United States, To reject Woodrow Wilson is to re- Jeot the wise laws that have given American industry and business such amasing impetus, To reject Woodrow Wilson is to re- Ject the foreign policies that have given us peace and honor and highest standing. To rejsct Woodrow Wilson is to turn the United States over to chaos be- tween November 2, 1916, and March 3, 1817, for his repudiation involves the surrender of every American conten- tion with foreigh natione, You do not have to wait until ele. tion day to make the one answer that an American can make, An Immediate coutribation to the Woodrow Wilson campaign tund pute you in the fight at once on the ri ht side, Against the millions of the oppr- sition, Woodrow WHeon places entire dependence upon the free offerings of the people, Bend your contribution to the Cen- tre Reporter, Centre Democrat or Dem-| Jobo Kresmer, uoble grand : Chas, ocratic Watchman, all of which papers | I.
