WILSON'S PARTY
PLEA IS RIDDLED
BY ROOSEVELT
President Urges Defeat of
Those Who Support War,
T. R. Points Out
New York, Oct. 29. Colonel j
Theodore Roosevelt declared in an \
address here last night that it was
"the veriest nonsense that even par
tisanship can conceive" to state that
failure to return a Democratic Con
gress this fall would be interpreted
by the Allies and Germany "as being
: a repudiation of the war aims of
: this country."
Speaking before the Republican
j Club at Carnegie Hall to urge "the
success of the Republican state ticket
here in New York and of the Re
; publican Congressional ticket
' throughout the Union," the former
j President asserted that "what we
need is an American Cdngress, a
| Congress of straight-out Americans,
i and not a Congress of rubber
I stamps."
"We Republicans pledge ourselves
to stand by the President so long as
he stands by the American people,
and to part companv from him at
any point where, in our judgment, he
does not stand by the people," he
i said. "This is the people's govern
j ment: this is the people's war, and
f the peace that follows shall be the
! people's peace."
Quoting a press dispatch to the
1 effect that Republican Senators, such
l as McCumber, Nelson and Lodge,
Iron or if you don't want to go to
this trouble then purchase only Nux
. ated Iron in its original packages
and ' see that this particular name
(Nuxated Iron) appears on the pack
age. If you have taken preparations
such as Nux and Iron and other sim
ilar iron products and failed to get
results, remember that such prqducts
are an entirely different thing from
Nuxated Iron.
If people would only take Nuxated
Iron when they feel weak or run
down. instead of dosing themselves
with habit-forming drugs, stimulants
and alcoholic beverages, there are
probably thousands who might read
ily build up their red blood corpus
cles, increase their physical energy
and get themselves into a condition
to ward off the millions of disease
germs that are almost continually
around us. It. is surprising how many
people suffer from iron deficiency and
do not know of it. If you are not
strong or well, you owe it to yourself
to make the following test. See how
long you can work or how far you
can walk without becoming tired.
Next taJte two five-grain tablets of
Nuxated Iron three times per day
after meals for two weeks. Then
test your strength again and see how
much you have gained.

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH:
•
"are as highly thought of in France
to-day as are the American gen- I
erals," Colonel Roosevelt declared j
that "nine times out of ten this ad- |
ministration has never led the peo- !'
pie," "has been reluctantly forced ]
forward into action by criticism I
against what it has violently pro- j
tested" and 'has sullenly and some
times malfciously sought to punish '
the men who by their truth telling |
have forced it into action."
"In a word." the Colonel said, "the '
Democratic party, under the lead of
the administration, has carried parti
san politics during the past eighteen
months to an extreme never before
known in this country in a time of
war as among loyal upholders of the
war." It has come 'dangerously neat
creating a condition of one-party
ism." he added.
Calls Test Purely Political
"The test insisted upon has been,
not loyalty to our Allies and hos
tilities to Germany, but adherence
to the administration," he declared,
adding that President Wilson's re
quest of October 14 that bitizens
should subscribe to the loan, but
"leave to the government of the
United States and of the Allies the
momentous discussion initiated by
i Germany" could be interpreted as
: meaning that they "should both put
up and shut up."
Colonel Roosevelt asserted that "if
I the administration had used with
I moderate 'efficiency the results of
lavish generosity of Congress, our
' armies and the Allied armies would
have been doing last March what
they are actually doing now in Octo
ber."
After asserting that this war must
be put through "to our last man and
our last dollar." the Colonel declared
that 'we should accept no peace not
based on the unconditional surren
der of Germany and her vassal
states."
He asserted that the President's
latest notes had placed him in such
a position that he had either to
"sacrifice America and humanity,"
or to "respond in such a manner as
to stultify his own diplomacy and
repudiate his own implied offer."
"It was not a pleasant thing for
America that he should have put
! himself and the nation behind him
i in the position of inviting a proposi
j tion which, when accepted, he re-
I pudiated," declared the Colonel. "For
I the very reason that I abhor Ger
many's trickery, treachery, and bad
faith, I am most anxious that Amer
icans shall not imitate her in these
matters."
Asserting that peace would be set
tled. not by the President alone, but
by the President acting in conjunc
tion with two-thirds of the Senate,
the Colonel continued:
"When it comes to the peace nego
tiations, we should emphatically re
pudiate the famous fourteen points
announced by the President last
January. One of them he has him
self repudiated, and the remainder
are cither so mischievous that they
ought to' be repudiated wihtout fur
ther definition, or else we should
insist on having them defined in or
! der to know exactly what they mean.
! They have been greeted with en
] thusiasm by Germany and by all
i pro-Germans on this side of the wa
iter. especially by the Germanized So
i cialists, and by the Bolshevikl of
i every grade, and for this reason good
! Americans should regard them with
, suspicion."
I Platform Made So Body
of Rev. E. E. Curtis May
Be Viewed by Congregation
Because so many of his parishion
ers were lamenting the fact that they
could not view his body, it has been
decided to erect a platform outside a
window of the Westminster Church
and lay the casket containing the
body of the Rev. Edwin E. Curtis
within. Those who desire then may
pass over the platform in single file
and view the body. The body will be
sent to Chestnut Level to-morrow
morning, at 9 o'clock, for burial. The
