EIGHT HOUR ATTACK IGNOBLE, SAYS OLNEY Hughes "Hadn't the Nerve" to Demand Filibuster on the Law. WILSON'S ACT COURAGEOUS. Member of Cleveland's Cabinet Praises President's Domestic Achievements and His Policy to Keep Country Out of War. No American can speak with higher authority on the issues of this cam- i paign than Richard Olney, who was President Cleveland's attorney general during the railroad strike of 1894 and President Cleveland's secretary of state when the Venezuelan message was sent to the British government. He should know whether President Wilson's action in averting the rail road strike was a "surrender td force;" whether the Wilson foreign policy has been "timid and vacillating." Mr. Olney seeks no political prefer ment; his interest is tba*t of a retired statesman, of a wise, experienced, dis passionate patriot, w T ho is concerned only with the welfare of his country. Mr. Olney has written for the New York World a signed article In which' he warns the American people against the danger sure to result from turning over their affairs to Mr. Hughes and the interests which would dictate his policies, foreign and domestic. Where Was His Narve? Discussing the passage of the Adam »on eight hour law, Mr. Olney points out that the Republicans of the senate, if they»had really wished more time for the consideration of the bill, could have obtained it by means of a fili buster, a recognized senatorial weapon, and adds: "Why did. not the Repablican sens tors resort to it and get all the time for deliberation they wanted? What was Candidate Hughes deiag that ha did not make the wiree hat with aaaa sagee to Washingten—warning againat the law the aavaaty-fewr Republican representative# who votad far it mmd urging the twanty-eifht Republican senators to filibuster ta the laat ditch? "But neither he nor the Republican leaders generally had the nerve to faoe the situation. With ample in their hands to prevent legislation until I after its due consideration, they delib erately elected that it should appear to be enacted under coercion in order that after the great national deliverance had been effected they might object to the mode of its accomplishment. "A pettier and more ignoble game of politics never was conceived, in com parison and in view of the sudden and extraordinary exigency sprung upon the country President Wilson's course was" characterized by both courage and common sense." Of Candidate Hughes' conduct in the campaign Mr. Olney remarks: "No sooner was the nomination as sured than the robes and ermine of the judge fell from the candidate as if by magic, and there appeared in their place the motley wear of the ordinary office seeker —a transformation as sud den as that made by the w r and of Har lequin in the pantomime, and a trans formation showing how thin is the ju dicial veneer, and forever discrediting the United States supreme court as a training camp for high political office." Has Kept toe Rudder True. In its conduct of foreign relations the Wilson administration, Mr. Olney says, "has kept its rudder true and has won and deserved the respect and gratitude of the country." The principles and objects of the Wilson foreign policy as stated by Mr. Olney have been; First —To keep the country out of the great European war. Second—To insist upon the exist ence and vitality of international law as determining its own status as a neutral, and defining its rights and obligations as such. Third— To deal with the Mexican situation in a spirit of perfect fair ness and friendliness to the Mexi can people, now suffering from civ il dissensions and revolution to an extent which leaves a large part of the country in a state of anarchy. Mr. Olney shows that all theee ob jects have been attained through the wise, patient and courageous diplo macy of Woodrow Wilson; that tibe ' president has kept the country at peaea without dishonor; that under his leadership "the United States has ren dered an inestimable service to bellig erents and neutrals and to all man kind" in "steadily bearing aloft the banner of international law as the standard under which all civilised peo ples must eventually gather." Mr. Olney finds particular oaase to command President Wilson's Mexican policy. He stands with the president in declaring that the Mexicans have the right to work out their own dee tiny even through revolution.
