DISTRICTS TO BE REDEEMED
TO REPUBLICANISM
rpilE election of Mr. Hughes without n
Republican House of Representatives,
to cooperate with him Will not bo enough
to bring about tho Industrial prepared
ness necessary to meet tho crisis In for
eign trade that Is sure to follow peace In
Europe.
The present Dcmocratlo majority Is
twenty-three. If tho Republicans retain
what they now have and elect twelve
more members they will have a bare
majority. Chairman Woods, of the Repub
lican Congressional Campaign Com
mlttoo, predict that at least thirty
Republicans will displace Democrats
next March. An additional Repub
lican has already been elected In
Maine, Mr. Woods finds that tho pros
peots are good for tho election of twenty
nine more, as follows: Rhodo Island,
one: New Tork, two; Ohio, two; Missouri,
throe; Kansas, two; Indiana, six; Illinois,
two; South Dakota, one; Oklahoma, two;
California, three; Nebraska, one; Iowa,
one; Washington, one, and West Virginia,
two.
He omits Pennsylvania from his count,
but tt Is morally certain that three dis
tricts now represented by Democrats will
elect Republicans next week. Leshcr, of
tho Sixteenth District, polled 12,982 votes
two years ago, but tho Washington and
Republican candidates received between
thorn 13,848 votes. If the believers In
protection do their duty this year thero Is
no doubt of tho election of a Republican
who will vote for tho American tariff
policy. Bailey, In tho Nineteenth Dis
trict, received 14,993 votes In 1914, and
his Republican opponent polled 14,176,
giving the eloctlon to Bailey. Tho Wash
lngton party candidate, however, was
supported ,by more than ten thousand
Progressive Republicans, who arc now
acting with the Republican party. Bailey
slipped Into offlco for tho first time in
1912 when the opposition was divided,
and was the first Democrat to carry the
district In recent times. A united op
position makes his chances so slight
that nothing but a miraculous revolu
tion In popular sentiment can save him.
The situation in tho Twenty-fifth District
Is only a little lesa encouraging to tho
Republicans than that In the Nineteenth,
Tho Washington and Republican voto
against Llebel in 1914 would have de
feated him by five thousand majority if
It had been combined. A Washington
candidate Is in, the fiold this year, but
the Washington oarty voters aro Repub
licans, and the Republican candidate Is
morally certain of victory. ,.
Hero are three districts where gains
are so certain that they can be counted
on to change the estimate of Congress
man Woods from thirty to thlrty-threo.
The party has a good fighting chance In
the Eleventh and Thirteenth Districts,
where if tho protection Issue Is played
up aa It should bo thero can be little
doubt of the result.
Whatever other reasons thero may be
for the defeat of the Democratic party,
and there are many of them, tho Im
portance of electing a House of Repre
sentatives loyal to the American policy
of protection to home Industry la so great
that no Republican and no independent
who believes In protection should per
mit himself to stay away from the polls.
If the campaign committees, both state
and national, fall ta concentrate atten
tion on the districts which can be, re
deemed to Republicanism, they will neg
lect their most obvious duty.

MILK AND SCHOONERS
To the Editor of the Evening Ledger:
Sir Forty years ago. In rivers like the
Delaware, there were hundreds of boats of
a type peculiar to American waters only.
They were called schoonorB and had two
masts, the local namo for them balng fore-and-afters.
As the years went by and In
vention gave us variety of production, bring
ing new Industries, the demand for labor
Increased, with the effect of a gradual rise
of wages. To combat such Increasing cost
of doing business bigness ot operation was
resorted to. After a while tho fore-and-after
began to disappear. "Here comes a
three-master," and down to tho river we
boys would go to see It, and later on tho
four- Ave- and six-masters of today.
As the years passed, so did virtually all
the two-masters, because there carao a tlmo
when tho few hundreds of tons thoy carried
and unloaded at one time did not pay a
profit to the owners, owing to the increased
labor coBt. Bigger boats were built that
carried or freighted double or three times as
much, insuring the owners a profit.
In exactly the same way, and from the
same causes, the production of foodstuffs
has been affected. In parts of tho country
where civilisation and wages were and are
the highest, and the size of farms compara
tively small, the old-time crops were gradu
ally given up because they did not return
enough money per acre to Insure the owners
of farms a profit. The cattle went, wheat
and rye went, butter-making became a lost
art and milk production will follow suit. In
parts ot the country like Gloucester County,
N. J., the production of milk will become a
thing of the past, bapause, being a necessity
of the poor, It doesjnot bring or pay enough
to allow Its continued production where the
civilization, wages and profits In business
footer or allow a oondltton whero people
would economize by using but a pint of milk
because It was raised in price to ten cents
per quart, but would or cojld waste gallons
of gasoline at twenty some cents per gallon
hunting pleasure.
Under such conditions and the standards
that allow It tho milk production cannot be
carried on at a profit, and it will go from
such communities where It Is needed the
rnOBt. ORIGINAL THINKER.

PANICS AND THE TARIFF
To the Editor of the Evening Ltdgtr!
Sir "Worklngman's" reply to Mr, Frailer
on the Underwood tariff bill Is almost en
tirely devoid of truth. The Underwood tariff
duties are tho lowest wo have had in fifty
years lower than the Wilson-Gorman law
which was paBsed In 1893, "Worklngman"
has never read the tariff law which Mr. Wil
son forced through Congress, or he would
not state It only reduced the duties on some
commodities. He does not know anything
about the Immigration law. Immigrants do
not come In free, for It costs each Immigrant
14 to enter this country. President Wilson
refused to sign tha Immigration bill and It
did not become a law, In regard to pantos t
In 1873 there was no soup houo6. Working
people w.ere employed. The panic was
caused by the reduction from abnormal Civil
War prices to normal prices. Men Invested
In lands during the war to make their
money safe In case the rebellion succeeded.
Farm land dropped to one-half the war price
In many cases. His statement regarding
the panlo In 1B0T-I, which winds up by say
ing millions were out ef work, is so false
that It Is really laughable. It was a fly
speck In comparison with the panlo under
Grover Cleveland, This was the only one
that produced souphouses all over this
country. The panlo of 1907-8 was a 'panic
in the money markets and lasted about three
weeks'. Protection produces Industries;
tariff for rivenue only never has and never
will. SAMUEIj FRYER

APVICE TO STRIKERS
to the Sditor of (Ae Evening Ledger,'
Sir The New York earmen have appealed
to Oovernor Whitman, as n last resert, to
end the strike. All this talking on cue part
of tne earmen win not persuade the Gov
ernor to give his aid. If the earmen want
to put an end to the strike they can do so
at any time,
But the trouble Is that the oarmen let
their organlwM lead them by the wm, w
In plain words, whatever the "boas," says
must go, ' No Questions 'are U ae asked,
New, about three-quarters af tha earmen
are 'roaming the treats of Hew, Yoifc with

strikes nets them a good profit, and thoy
make it a business.

DOUBTS T. R.'S SINCERITY
To the Editor of the Evening Ledger:
Sir Roosevelt Is deltberatoly trying to
bring about the defeat of Hughes. That Is
tho baslo reason for his Impolitic and muck
erlah electioneering In tha present cam
paign. He, thinks that by succeeding with
euch a purpose he can then secure the Re
publican nomination for himself In 1920.
He Is fully capable of going to the very
limit of political treachery. And there can
bo no doubt that he has thus already
alienated many thousands of voters from
the side of the candidate whom he is now
so hypocritically professing to support.

Philadelphia, October 24.
NATIONAL POINT OF VIEW
President Wilson's utter failure to pre
tall upon tho warring nations to find some
way to save the noncombatant populations
of Poland, Serbia, Montenegro and Albania
from Blow starvation marks the lowest
depths to which any considerable part of
the modern world has ever sunk. Brooklyn
Eagle.
We believe that the American people as
a whole, except where blind partisanship
leads them to believe that they think other
wise, are thoroughly satisfied with Mr,
Wilson's conduct of our relations with the
warring nations. We cannot believe that
blind partisanship Is sufficiently widespread
to defeat him for re-eloction. Fort Worth
Star-Telegram.
Of historical Importance, no less, Is the
decision taken by the United States Govern
ment In regard to submarines. In settling
one question It raises others, but It was the
only decision at which the Government, In
view of all the circumstances,, could arrive.
For the Allies to ask neutrals to outlaw
the submarine was a matter of course, but
the efforts of the United States liavo from
Jho beginning been directed to constraining
submarines to conform to law, by which an
outlaw Is not bound. Springfield Republican.
THE ROAD TO WAR
"Do you want war?" the unashamed
Democracy asks, "You will get It It you
vote for Hughes." A lie, but It gives a new
character to the campaign.
The Democrats have o worked with this
issue that thay havo made a vote for Wil
son the voto ot a coward. Does any one
think that there la protection In a oonfeaslon
of cowardice? Does any one think that
American rights will be respected when
America proclaims itself, by an election,
upon an Issue definitely Btated, to be a timid
nation, rich but frightened to death?
That is the road to war, the sure, certain
road, and not only to war but to a dreadful
and humiliating war. Mr. Wilson's record
In this Veipect Is much worse than
Buchanan's. Buchanan did not make an
Issue of cowardice and have the nation con
fess a craven character.
We never before had so shameful an
Issue. Chicago Tribune.

AT SJJAD0W LAWN
There are no substances at Shadow lawn;
Nothing but shadows! Substances have
gone.
Nothing to grasp or grip. Elusive things'
Oltde noiselessly about on phantom wings.
Moves here a maid by brutal bandits slain
Unburled bleaeh her bones on seorehlng
plain,
Those gliding ships, with open, gaping side,
Sink In deep thadew 'neath a shadowy tide.
These tiny bodlM quhertor la the deep.
They, too, at gbadew Lawn, their vigil
keep.

Shadows of deeds whleh loyal man expeet,
Shadows of premlees untimely wreaked,
