tee Flooded Willi Messages
of Victory; People Stirred
W axhlnatun. Nov. I.—The RepuD
lican candidate for Congress from
Arizona is in military service
in France. His Democratic opponent
is stumping Arizona keeping politics
in continuous session. I'pon reading
Wilson's appeal the "Tucson Citizen"
wired President Wilson:
"Referring to your appeal to the (
country to return a Democratic j
Congress, can you have any possible |
objection to the election of Lieu- '
tenant Maddock, who has been serv
ing his country in France since last
May? Do you think his election;
would be misunderstood on the other
side of the water On the other
hand, would his defeat be taken
in Germany as a repudiation of our
fighting forces?"
Lieutenant Maddock is only typ- ;
leal of all Republicans. Hundreds of
thousands of them are on the tiring !
line in France, fighting against the
same thing. Their answer to Presi- 1
dent Wilson's slander of their party. )
his charge that they are unfit and ',
unsafe to participate in public afTairs. '
and his audacious appeal for the elec
tion of only rubber-stamp Democrats j
who will cringe and fawn and do his
bidding, has been instantaneous • and 1
vehement.
Not only from every state north I
of the Mason and Dixon lino, but
from several southern states, solidly i
Democratic, have telegrams been •
pouring in on the desk of Chairman!
Will H. Hays assuring him that Mr.
Wilson's partisan appeal, the reply)
made by Republican leaders, and :
Chairman Hays' statement calling on
all Republicans to fight, have caused
every Republican to pull his coat off
and go to work.
The following telegram from At- ;
laitta, Georgia, is only one of sev
eral from southern states:
"Thank God for your courage and ;
wonderful reply to Mr. Wilson. |
Fight, that's the word—you have ,
said it; now repeat it daily. Fight,:
fight, and more fight without stint.
This Federal Hank district of five or j
six southern states assessed to take
one hundred and ninety millions of
Fourth Liberty Bond issue, while the |
Joint votes of all their Democratic '
Congressmen far outnumber those of
New Y"rk. w'noh alone was ■ i
ten fold more in Liberty Bond sub- I
scrlptions. Same comparison as to J
drafted men for Army and in the J
natter of war taxes, and meanwhile
me lone Texan private p tlzen runs '
:he show to the exclusion of the i
srains of the east, north, middle and I
ivestern states."
From one western state which the j
democrats have been hopeful of car- i
■ying comes a bunch of telegrams '
om bubsinessmen. farmers and ,
vorkers. saying that the Repub
licans are aroused and will carry the
Hate overwhelmingly because of the
action. In this state. j
larticularly. Republicans have been
file because they had been disposed .
n take the President at his word a ;
ew months ago when he said, "Poli- |
Irs are adjourned."
From another western state comes !
idvices from several quarters indl
svting that the President's action
sill cost the Democratic party in!
hat state not less than 50.000 votes.
Drench Army Officers

- With American Forces
Paris. General Gouraud, the
Trench commander, whose successes
in the Aisne have familiarized his
lame to American readers, has '
rritten an appreciation of the aid
endured his army by American
uencies, which has just been made
iblic in connection with the United
in r Work Campaign. A similar
r hute has been written by General
Hasan, another of France's mill- j
;<rv leaders who has won recogni- '
ion in America. General Gouraud '
irote to Emmanuel Sautter, direc
or general of the Foyers du Soldat.
hich are conducted by the French i
R connection with the American Y.
t C. A. ae follows:
r "For some time past I have seen '
!he work of your organization with j
ihe fourth army, and more highly
ippreciate each day the help and
romfort which It affords to our sol- )
jieis. assuring to them a material .
ind moral support. It is a most ad- J
wjjjxi' e work, and I take this occa- '
■ vfe' i express to you my profound !
of its benefits.
■ If wish and sincerely hope that •
14' efforts which you are putting

Hfiwned with success. I beg to as- i

t GOURAUD." (
there were thirty-seven Amer-!
IB Y. M. C. A. workers in the!
■overs du Soldat when this wasi
Written, and as the K. of C. and 1
fa.ration Army are uniting in their
■Torts to provide comfort for the 1
French soldiers, the extent of the)
appreciation of American aid can !
be estimated. General Daugan wrote
r follows:
jjw'l beg to certify that the repre- !
pfctatives of the Y. M. C. A. have 1
fs*dered great service to the '
wfcnded of this division during the i
