\ ator Smoot, of Utah, chairman ofj

I tee; Senator "Watson, of Indiana,!
j and others who are not obliged to [
return home to fix their political;

cided to continue their criticism of'
(he President's appeal for the elee-"
tion of a Democratic Congress out-1
side the Senate chamber if the;
Democrats succeed in blocking dis-1
ousslon on the floor.
Representative Fess, of Ohio, |
j chairman of the Republican Con-j
! gressional Committee, denied asser- J
| tions made by Joseph P. Tumulty,
I Secretary to the President, that Lin
i coin and McKinley hoth issued par-j
| tisan appeals to the voters of the
iMintry to continue the Republican j
; narty in contro, of Congress during j
1 American war.
Fess Replies to Tumulty
Mr. Fess' statement follows:
"Mr. Tumulty's letter in response
|to the wish of the President, In j
i which* he attempts to justify the;
open letter of President Wilson re-!
| questing a Democratic Congress, |
; fails of its purpose.
"First. No President in our his-i
! tory has made such a request to j
! the American electorate,
i "Cases cited are on a par with lit-!
teranees. of political leaders not'
! clothed with the prestige of the;
! power of the presidential office. Had !
such a request been made by Lin-j
coin or McKinley, which never was I
rriade, they might have been free!
from the charge of an attempt to
capitalize the patriotism of the coun
try for partisan purposes, because, |
unlike President Wilson, they had |
a minority which attempted to bleck I
ut every turn in their prosecution
of the war.
"The first war Congress under
Lincoln enacted three outstanding,
war measures to supply funds for
I the speedy prosecution of the war.
| The Morlll act wus the first and the
i Democrats voted almost solidly
against It. The legal tender act,
j which provided further money
! power, was the second, and the vote
stood ninety-three for it, all Re- i
| publicans, and flfty-nine against, in- j
eluding all the Lemocrnts who'
j voted. The third outstanding war !
! measure was the national bond uct
' to supply a needed increase in our-
I rency. It was resisted by every)
' Democrat in the Senate but three, |
I while in the House the vote stood \
| seventy-eight to sixty-four, almost!
; a strict party vote,
i Democrats in iNiil Sought Peace
"This opposition culminated in an!
] official announcement by the Dem- j
' ocratlc, party in national convention j
j in 1864, in the midst of the war, by 1
i declaring the war a failure and a
j demand for a 'cessation of hostil- j
i ities.' This platform of six resolu- |
: tions was confined to opposition to;
j Mr. Lincoln nnd the war.
"McKinley in 1898 was con-1
j fronted with an opposition minority!
| too recent to be forgotten. It was
! well expressed in the vote on the!
I fiscal measure to supply funds for!
('the prosecution of the war, whenj
(out of 159 Democratic members of!
I the Congress all but six voted
against it.
| "These facts should be examined!
| in comparison with the conduct or
| the Republican minority in this
war.
"In twenty-six measures there
! was not an adverse Republican
I vote cast.
"In all of the war measures the
! Republicans cast almost their solid
vote."

IDORSETT SPEAKS
FOR GOOD RDADSi
[Continued from first PIIKI I .]
how and where the money would be
spent, tflit that doubt no longer ex
ists, as It Is well known that under
! the leadership of William C". Sprout,
1 who is also a member of the Grange,
j and who without doubt will be our
j next Governor, the money will be
I honestly and wisely expended.
"The Grange favors a direct tax
I on all personal and corporate prop
i erty. The, corporate interests are well
ing to pay the bill for improved
I roads, but would much prefer that
j it he done by means of n bond is
! sue. rather than by a direct tax.
"The farmers of Pennsylvania are
i begining to understand the question;
and many who voted against it live
! years ago will vote for it next Tues
j day.
"There never was a time in the
| history of the state or nation when
| good roads were so much needed as j
j now; and this need will become more |
JAii'itte during the era of reconstrue- j
j tlon that will follow the war.
"Many counties throughout the !
| state have recently authorized bond i
I issues for constructing good roads,
j "If a bond issue is a good business i
| proposition for a county it is doubly |
' good for a state.
"Every great progressive move
ment has been made possible (
I through the medium of bond issues.,
Pities have been built and improve
ments made; railroads have been
built and equipped; and the present,
world war is being waged for God
and humanity by money raised .
through bond isttcs.
"t'p to date it is the most logical j
way to finance any large business en- j
terprise.
"The Lincoln highway has paid j
for itself a hundred times during the j
past year; and had it been built with
a concrete base its usefulness would
have been increased one hundred
fold. '
! "No one can tell how many lives
were saved or how much the dura
tion of the war was shortened by the
supplies, ammunition and equipment
transported over the Lincoln high
way since the war began.
"The Hun was kept out of Paris
and finally driven out of positions
dangerous to the Allies because of
the splendid rqad systems leading in
! and out of Paris and the surround
ing country.
"Pennsylvania needs just such a
system, or a better one; and a bond
issue will be the beginning.
"Lot every Pennsylvania farmer
disabuse his mind of any thought of
graft or political favors, and do what
he knows to be best for his state
and his country, both in times of war
and peace.
"Let every Pennsylvania farmer
go to the polls on November 5 and
cast his vote in favor of the road
bond issue.
"K. B. DOB SETT,
"Director, Bureau of Markets."
