WILSON SACRIFICED
HONOR OF NATION
Verbal Shots Fired
by T. R. at Wilson
The supporters of Mr. Wilson say
that the American people should
vote for him because he has kept
us out of war. This is a claim that
cannot be advanced either on be
half of Washington or of Lincoln.
Imagine George Washington af
ter the Lexington fight selecting the
occasion as an appropriate one for
remarking that the American peo
ple might be "too proud to fight!"
Imagine Lincoln saying this after
the firing on Sumterl
In fifteen messages, letters and
speeches during fourteen months,
President Wilson took forty-one
different positions about prepared
ness and the measures necessary to
secure it: and each of these forty
one positions contradicted from
one to six of the others.
If our people follow the Presi
dent * * * then as a people we
shall lose all moral greatness in the
present, and most assuredly • * •
material greatness in the future.
An ounce of performance out
weighs a ton of promise. President
\ .Ison has sought to cover his re
v. cat from danger by uttering high
sounuing words. • • Only his
acts or failures to act count.
He (the President) was cowed
by big labor leaders exactly as
he nad already been cowed by
Germany and by Mexico. • • •
He let the public pay.
I appeal to my fellow-citizens
that they shall elect Mr. Hughes
and repudiate Mr. Wilson, because
only by so doing can they save
America from that taint of gross
selfishness and cowardice which
we owe to Mr. Wilson.
Battle Creek, Mich., Oct. 2.
President Wilson's administration was
assailed by Theodore Roosevelt in an
address which he made here Saturday
in behalf of the candidacy of Charles
E. Hughes. He referred to President
Wilson as a "man of words" and to
the Republican Presidential candi
date as "a man of deeds."
Speaking to the thousands of peo
ple packed into a circus tent. Colonel
Roosevelt charged that President
Wilson ••sacrificed the national honor
of the United States" because he fear
ed to pay the price for upholding it.
Roosevelt characterized President
Wilson's Kuropean and Mexican poli
cies as "cowardly" and as "following
tlie lines of least resistance."
Has Invited Murder
"President WMson, by his policy of
tame submissk • to insult and injury
from all who he feared, lias invited
live murder of our men, women and
children by Mexican bandits on land,
and German submarines on the sea,"
said the former President.
Colonel Roosevelt spoke at length
on the Mexican situation. He crit
icised President Wilson for refusing to
recognize Huerta and for recogniz
ing the Carranza Government. "KTery
argument against Huerta applied
with tenfold more truth and weight
against Carranza," he said.
Colonel Roosevelt declared that
fear and hope of personal political
profit earned President Wilson to
force passage of the Adamson eight
hoar day bill.
Yielded to Dictation
"President Wilson yielded to the
dictation of the heads of the broth
erhoods and made no effort to find
out whether the demand was right or
wrong," he added. "He took his ord
ers from that one of the parties in
terested -which he most feared. The
question at issue was not one of the
hours of labor. It was one of wages.
The settlement was due partly to fear
and partly to hope of political profit."
Roosevelt's closing words were a
plea for Hughes' election. "I appeal
to my fellow citizens that they elect
Mr. Hughes and repudiate Mr. Wilson
because only by so doing can thev
save America from the taint of gross
selfishness."
Speakers Held the Crowd
Several speakers of national note
delivered addresses before Mr. Roose
velt arrived. Former Senator Lafay
ette Young, of Iowa; United States
Senator Charles E. Townsend, of
Michigan and Representative Patrick
H. Kelley, of Michigan, were among
the speakers. Before the mass meet
ing started several thousand persons
were fed at a "prosperity" barbecue
near the circus tent.
Mr. Roosevelt in his speech said:
"At the outset I wish to say a word
as to the protests now made by so
many people that we must not criticise
the President. The newspapers and
individuals making these protests are,
for the most part, the very ones who
and which when I was President
spread even- species of calumnv and
slander about me. I then, as Presi
dent. took the view that no one had
a right to speak untruthfully of the
President or of anyone else, but that
even less than anyone else ought the
President to escape from truthful
criticism. I never complained of any
attack on me unless it was false, and
if it was false, and the man making
it was important enough, I clearly

showed its falsity,
"I never uttered one word of
criticism of President Wilson until a
year and a half after he was elected
President. If he had stood by the
honor and the interest of tho Ameri
can people, I would have thrown up
my hat for him, and would have sup
ported him heart and soul. I not
merely kept silent during the first
eighteen months or two years. I tried
actively to support him.
"It was with deep reluctance that I
was forced to the conclusion that the
effort to stand by him was incom
patible with standing by the interests
of mankind and the honor of this
Nation.
"The supporters of Mr. Wilson say
that the American people should vote
for him because he has kept us out
of war. It is worth while to remem
ber that this is a claim that cannot be
advanced either on behalf of Wash
ington or of Lincoln. Neither Wash
ington nor Lincoln kept us out of war.
Americans and the people of the world
at large now reverence the memories
of these two men, because, and only
because, they put righteousness before
peace. They abhorred war. But they
possessed that stern valor of patriot
ism which bade them put duty first,
not safety first; which bade them ac
cept war rather than an unrighteous
and disastrous peace. There were
peace-at-any-price men in the days of
Washington. They were the Tories.
There were peace-at-any-price men
in the days of Lincoln. They were the
Copperheads.
"The men who now with timid
hearts and quavering voices praise
Mr. Wilson for having kept us out
of war, are the spiritual heirs of the
Tories of 1776, and the Copperheads
of 1864.
"President Wilson by his policy of
tame submission to insult and Injury
from all whom he feared has invited
the murder of our men, women and
children by Mexican bandits on land,
and by German submarines on the
sea. He has spoken much of the
'New Freedom." In international
practice this has meant freedom for
the representatives of any foreign
power to murder American men and
outrage American women unchecked
by the President.
Policy in Mexico
"The other day, discussing his re
fusal to recognize Huerta, President
Wilson said in his speech of accept
ance that he would refuse to recog
nize any "title based upon intrigue
and assassination,' and that he would
'refuse to extend the hand of wel
come to any one who obtains power
in a sister republic by treachery and
violence.' Fine words; only, as usual,
they are contradicted by Mr. Wilson's
deeds. Let this statement about
Huerta. be tested by Mr. Wilson's rec
ord in exactly similar cases when deal
ing with other men.
"In February, 1914, at the very
time he was refusing to recognize
Huerta in Mexico, President Wilson
recognized Colonel Benavides in Peru:
although Benavides had obtained
power by the exact means which Mr.
Wilson denounced in the case of
Huerta.
"But it is Mr. Wilson's recognition
of Carranza which more than any
thing else applies the 'acid tert,' of
which Mr. Wilson is so fond of speak
ing, to Mr. Wilson's own allegatalons
as to why he did not recognize Huerta.
Every argument against Huerta ap
plied with ten-fold more truth and
weight against Carranza.
"On April 3, 1915, the Americans
resident in the City of Mexico sent to
the Department of State a. letter set
ting forth that troops had
without check by him, and acting by
his orders, killed men, outraged wo
men and raided churches.
Wilson an AntiCarranza Witness
"Moreover, Mr. Wilson is himself
a witness against his present ally. I
refer you to the letter of Mr. Wilson's
own Secretary of State of June 4 last.
In this letter it is explicitly stated
that Carranzista soldiers in Septem
ber, 1915, invaded American terri
tory at several different points, and
engaged in burning and looting Am
erican property and killing American
citizens. Exactly twenty days later,
on October 19, Mr. Wilson expressed
•pleasure' in informing Carranza that
he recognized him!" Since the recog
nition Carranza's troops by his orders
have treacherously attacked and mur
dered American soldiers on at least
two occasions. If the acts above re
cited do not constitute "intrigue and
assassination, treachery and violence."
then the words have lost their mean
ing.
"Mr. Wilson took "pleasure" In 'ex
tending the hand of welcome' to Car
ranza, whose own hand is red with
blood of murdered men and women of
his own nation, and whose hands,
unlike the hands of Huerta, were
also red with the blood of murdered
Americans, of murdered American
civilians, and of murdered American
soldiers wearing the American uni
form.
Saddled With Debt
"It seems probable that the first
fruits of Mr. Wilson s policy in Mexico
will be that we shall find ourselves
saddled with a debt of a billion and
a half of dollars; while already many
more of our people have been killed
than were killed in the war with
Spain; and our policy has been ruin
ous to Mexico, dishonorable to our
selves, and infamous from the stand
point of humanity; while not the
slightest progress toward a perman
ent settlement has been made.
Too Proud to Fight
"President Wilson says that he Is
'interested in the fortunes of pitiful
women and children." On the Lusi
tania there were drowned one hun
dred and three babies under two years
of age; fifty of them being babies
under one year of age. How did Mr.
Wilson's 'interest' in these pitiful wo
men and children show itself? It
showed Itself by the statement Just
two days later about being 'too proud
to fight.' It showed Itself in his state
ment a little over two weeks later to
the effect that it was inexpedient
then to arouse the spirit of patriotism
L<et him square these acts with these
words of his.
"Never in our history has there
been such ignoble contrast between
the words and the deeds of a Chief
Executive.
"As on almost every question Presi
dent Wilson has occupied at least
two diametrically opposite positions
we can usually find in some of his
words an outline of the position we
ought to have taken: but almost with
out exception, these fine words have
had the meaning weaseled out of
them by other words; and usually
there have been no deeds whatever.
Forty-one Positions
"President Wilson took forty-one
different positions about preparedness
and the measures necessary to secure
it; and each of these forty-one posi-

tions contradicted from one to six of
the others. In many of his speeches
the speech took all the meaning out
of the words used In another portion
of that speech; and these latter words
themselves had a weasel significance
as regards yet other words.
"He argued for preparedness, and
against preparedness. He stated that
our army was ample: and that we did
not have enough troops to patrol the
Mexican border in time of peace. He
said the world was on fire. and that
sparks were liable to drop anywhere
and cause us to burst Into flame: and
he also said that there was no im
mediate danger. He said that there
was no sudden crisis; and then again
that he did not know what a single
day would bring forth. He said that
we were on the verge of a maeJstrom;
and then that there was no special or
critical situation. He said the dan
ger was constant and immediate; and
also that we were not threatened from
any quarter. He said that there was
no fear among us; and also that we
were in daily danger of seeing the
vital interest and honor of the coun
try menaced and the flag of the Unit
ed States stained with impunity. He
said that we were in very critical
danger of being involved in "the great
Kuropean struggle; and also that there
was no need to discuss the Question
of defense, or to get nervous or ex
cited about It. In one and the same
speech, he said that a sufficient num
ber of men would volunteer, and that
if they did not he would be ashamed
of America; and he also said that ho
did not know of any law which laid
HP on them the duty of coming into
the army, if it should be necessary to
call for volunteers. He said that we
needed 500,000 volunteers, and that
if there was any legitimate criticism
of this demand it was because it was
too small; and as soon as Congress
man Hay objected to the plan, he
promptly abandoned it.
• T Co ? lparc Hughes nd Wilson
I ask you to compare the charac
r "5.1, coura Ke of Mr. Hughes and
Mr. Alison by comparing their atti
tudes as regards the demands of the
railway brotherhoods, w*hich culmin
ated recently in the miscalled eight
hour legislation at Washington.
' line Portly to Fear
' The settlement was due partly to
fear, and partly to hopo of political
profit. What Mr. Wilson really did
was to Insist on legislation about the
wage scale without any previous in
vestigation or knowledge.
"If the improper course which the
President followed had been due to
mistaken conviction. to erroneous
principle, its effect would nevertheless
nave been evil. As it is. the effect is
far worse, because there is grave rea
son to believe that the course he fol
lowed was directly opposed to h's
real convictions.
'The President is now a candidate
for office and speaks well of labor,
until he became a candidate for office,
and as long as he was president of a
university, he, with entire safety, ig
nored or assailed the labor unions.
I*erformance Outweighs Promise
'An ounce of performance out
weighs a ton of promise. In all these
cases whenever there was any risk,
any danger to be encountered, Presi
dent Wilson has promptly retreated.
He has then sought to cover his retreat
by uttering high-sounding words. But
in these oases his high-sounding words
amount to absolutely nothing. Only
his acts, or failures to act count.
Did Harm to Nation
"By his actions President Wilson
did lasting harm to the Nation. The
vice of his procedure was four-fold. He
delivered a deadly blow at the princi
ple of industrial arbitration. He im
mensely weakened the power of the
National Executive to act under such
conditions on behalf of the public. He
established the shameful and perilous
precedent that the government of the
United States can be coerced and lesrts
latlon extorted from Congress, by ter
rorization and the threat of vlo'lence.
He aided in securing a settlement
which puts a premium on the overrid
ing of justice by appeals to brute
force.
I appeal to my fellow citizens that
they shall elect Mr. Hughes and re
pudiate Mr. Wilson because only by so
doing can they save America from
that taint of gross selfishness and cow
ardice which we owe to Mr. Wilson's
substitution of adroit elocution for
straightforward action.
"The permanent interests of the
American people lie, not In ease and
comfort for the moment, no matter
how obtained, as Mr. Wilson would
teach us: but in resolute champion
ship of the ideals of national and in
ternational democratic duty, and in
preparedness to make this champion
ship effective by our strength.
"President Wi'son embodies in his
person that most dangerous doctrine
which teaches our people that when
fronted with really formidable respon
sibilities we can shirk trouble and la
bor and risk, and avoid duty by the
simple process of drugging our souls
with the narcotic of
phrasemongering.
"Mr. Hughes, to the exact contrary,
embodies the ideal of service rendered
through conscientious effort in the face
of danger and difficulty. Our own
self-respect demands that we support
the man of deeds done in the open
against the man of furtive and shift
ing political maneuvers; the man of
service against the man who when
ever opposed by a dangerous foe al
ways takes refuge in empty elocution."
Straw Vote of N. Y. Herald
Shows Hughes Far Ahead
New York, Oct. 2. The second
week of the Herald"s Presidential
forecast shows Mr. Hughes still ahead
and by a slightly Increased margin,
but still not sufficiently in the lead to
justify a prediction as to the result
of the election. Conditions are chang
ing. People are Just beginning to
make up their minds. The straw vote
taken In the next two weeks should
give a definite indication as to what
will happen on November 7.
No fight for the Presidency In the
last twenty years at least has at a
corresponding stage of the campaign
given such promise of a close race.
Prom all that can be gathered from
57,2<*l straw votes taJcen in twenty
eight States—the ten Southern States
are omitted from the canvass being
solidly Democratic —it now appears
to be a safe assertion that the Re
publicans have a shade the best of
j the contest Just now. The situation
, might be summarized as follows:
President Wilson is stronger than
| his party.
! Charles E. Hughes Is perhaps not
quite so strong as the Republican
I party in the days before it split in
I two in Chicago four years ago.
| Out of the total straw vote of 57,209
] Mr. Hughes has a majority over the
I President of 3,881. This covers Iwen
! ty-elght States. Of this margin of
less than 4,000 California contributes
[ 3,632. Out of a total of 31,608 votes
gathered in twenty-four States—Cali
' fornla, Arizona, New Mexico, and
! Nevada excluded—Mr. Hughes leads
[ the President by a majority of 275.
Of the twenty-eight States which
appear in the tabulations Mr. Hughes
| leads in nineteen: the President in
i nine. Last week the President led in
(seven and Mr. Hughes in sixteen.
Only twenty-two were Included in the
recapitulation at that time.

HUGHES CERTAIN OF
VICTORY AFTER TOUR
[Continued from First Page]
Roosevelt and ex-President Taft will
be present, and then will go to some
resort within a few hours of New
York to get in shape for the third
campaign trip on October 9.
During the last two weeks Mr.
Hughes has campaigned in Illinois,
Wisconsin, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsyl
vania, New Jersey and New York In
the order named. Republican lead
ers say that Illinois. Wisconsin and
Pennsylvania can Ue counted upon as
safely Republican. They believe also
that Mr. Hughes made a strong im
pression in Indiana which would bo
difficult for the Democrats to over
come. Prospects for New Jersey are
looked upon as hopeful from the Re
publican viewpoint, principally be
cause of the success of Senator Mar
tine In defeating the President's can
didate, Mr. Westcott, for the nomina
tion for Senator in the primaries.
In New York State the Republicans
are claiming that the addresses by Mr.
Hughes have assured him the solid
Republican vote In districts outside
of New York City. Mr. Hughes got
large crowds everywhero up-State.
The Republican leaders, it is under
stood, are planning to have Mr.
Hughes devote much time to New
York before the close of the cam
paign. The impression gained by
hastily collected information during
the tour indicated that in all of the
States visited the great majority of the
Progressives would return to the Re
publican party.
Says One Thing Does Another
Before a monster audience at
Buffalo, Mr. Hughes Saturday night
accused the Democratic administra
tion of having seriously hampered the
development of American business
abroad while it professed in words the
desire of seeing America's commerce
extended everywhere.
The charges were made in direct
answer to President Wilson's speech
of acceptance at Shadow Lawn and a
later address made before the grain
dealers' convention at Baltimore, in
which Mr. Wilson said that It was his
dream to see "American business pit
ted against the world's, not in selfish
ness, but in brains."
A "Verbal" Administration
In declaring that the Democratic
administration lias most effectually
retarded the growth of America's
foreign commerce by omissions and
commissions, Mr. Hughes added that
he did not speak of it in disparage
ment so far as its spoken words went.
"As a verbal administration," he said,
amid laughter, "undoubtedly the pres
ent administration has been most suc
cessful.'"
The nominee cited the action of the
administration shortly after its incep
tion in discouraging American bank
ers from participating in the six-Power
loan to China, ana its failure to pro
tect American lives and property in
Mexico, as instances where its spoken
words were belied by Its actions. In
the abandonment of its people and
their property in Mexico he declared
and by the appointment as Minister to
Santo Domingo and other Latin Am
erican republics of men "utterly un
fit" this Nation has lost much of the
respect of Latin America.
Mr. Hughes waxed caustic over the
criticisms which Mr. Wilson has made
of certain investors who took advant
age of opportunities in Mexico and
asked what line if any had been drawn
between those who had forfeited the
right of protection of their govern
ment and those who were Innocent
of this wrongdoing.
No Inducement to Go Abroad
"There is a serious side to this Mex
ican matter," he said. "I stand here
to assert that American trade will not
be maintained according to the am
bitious and Just aspirations of our
people, and we shall not stand be
fore the world as we should with in
ternational esteem and the confidence
of the Nation, unless we prbtect at
all events American commerce
throughout the world."
The Nation Mr. Hughes added, has
had an opportunity to onserve how
the policies of the administration have
failed to aid the development of Am
erican business despite its protesta
tions. He demanded that American
business be placed on a firm economic
foundation, that its domestic and
foreign commerce may not be injured,
and declared that this foundation
must be developed through a protec
tive tariff to prevent competition,
which would smother enterprise, and
through the maintainance of expert
agencies which will enable American
manufacturers to seek new markets
everywhere.
"What is the inducement to Amer
ican business?" he asked, "to go to
foreign countries and engage in Am
erican enterprises if they and their in
vestments are treated as our citizens
and their property were permitted to
be treated in Mexico?"
Women Speakers Start on
Campaign For Hughes;
Mrs. Brumbaugh Along
New York, Oct. 2.' Several hun
dred women of New Tork and other
cities, many of them prominent in
civic affairs, as well as social circles,
attended a breakfast hero tills morn
ing in honor of a corps of twenty-five
women speakers who jater boarded
the women's campaign train for a
month's campaign tour of twenty
eight States for Mr. Hughes. After
the breakfast the women paraded
down Fifth avenue in automobiles and
stopped for a brief meeting in front
of the headquarters of the Republican
National Committee. The procession
carried American flags and campaign
posters bearing photographs of Mr.
Hughes.
About fifty women accompanied the
regular corps of speakers and will
take part in some of the meetings, but
will go no further than Chicago.
Their first meeting will be held on
the lawns of the executive mansion
at Albany this afternoon and will be
preceded by a luncheon given by Mrs.
Charles H. Whitman, the Governor's
wife. A night meeting will be held
at Syracuse and the next stop will be
at Rochester to-morrow morning to be
followed by a meeting at Buffalo to
morrow afternoon. The second day
of the tour will end with an evening

BISBEE
COPPER MINING AND DEVELOPMENT COMPANY
Bisbee, Arizona, the World's Dividend Record Copper District
Of all the world's great copper camps, Bisbee holds the record for paying the most dividends
per pound of copper produced, and the most dividends per ton of ore mined and smelted. Its
mines have yielded more copper per ton of ore than any other great copper camp in the world.
Bisbee, Arizona, compares with the Michigan and Butte, Montana, districts as follows:
Dividends paid BISBEE MICHIGAN BCTTK
Per pound of copper produced 05 Vs .03 % -03 Vk
Per ton of ore mined $6.25 SI.OO $2.50
Copper recovered per ton of ore 120 lbs. 25 lbs. 75 lbs.
Bisbee has produced 2,161,200,000 pounds of copper—more than one million tons of the metal—
Since July, 18S0. Its four leading companies have paid cash dividends of $110,343,254 to September
30, 1916, or a return of 035% on the entire combined capital invested. In addition to cash dividends
paid to date, the present market value of the holdings and equipment (bought and paid for out of
prohts) exceeds 1,400% on the par value of the total capital now invested.
The Copper Queen, the leading mine of the Bisbee District, has paid over 3,800% in dividends on
its capitalization of $2,000,000. Its cash dividends to date are $77,257,500. Around it has grown up
Phelps, Dodge & Co., one of the six copper companies in the world enjoying a market value of over
$100,000,000 for their securities. The Copper Queen comprises the bulk of the tangible assets of
—Rio Tinto, Calumet & Helca, and Anaconda being the other three.
Other well-known Bisbee companies are the Calumet & Arizona, and the Superior & Pittsburgh
(merged in 1915), and the Shattuck-Arizona. In the last named, the late James J. Hill and his as- \
sociates have extensive holdings. In the lirst two, the control is held by a syndicate including the
Corey-Tener-Congdon-Hoatson-Briggs groups of U. S. Steel and Amalgamated Copper circles. These
younger companies have paid $33,035,854 net cash dividends in a few years.
Bisbee ore is of direct-smelting nualitv. This simplifies the copper-producing business as prac
ticed at Bisbee. The ore, once struck, is immedi.itely ready to ship to any one of six nearby custom
smelting establishments at Douglas, Globe, lit t'aso, and Cananea. No expensive concenrating plant
is required to dress the ore. Neither does it require expensive mine equipment, such as is necessary
to handle lower-grade ores economically in other camps.

We believe the possibilities of the Bisbee Copper Mining & Development Company's
grounds are exceeded by no Copper proposition now before the public. There has never
been serious development work undertaken in the Bisbee District, by mining companies,
that did not open a bonanza.
A valuation of $750,000 for the entire capitalization compares with 2 to 20 times
this sum for a dozen enterprises now traded in, not one of which enjoys better location,
