THE WILSON ADMINISTRATION The Outlook (New York), that ries pretty hard at times to be indejendent in its discussion of political :onditions, makes a strange admission n this paragraph: "Those who are isking Mr. Hughes to specify what le would have done had he been in :ommand at the crucial times during :he past four years are demanding iomething more than any human beng can properly answer. Why, then, s Mr. Hughes abusing President Wilson for doing what The Outlook admits is a problem that "no human being can properly answer." In every critical emergency, when war was threatening with Germany and with Mexico, Mr. Wilson met the crisis and met it nobly. The Outlook in this same issue publishes an article by Theodore Price on "President Wilson and Prosperity," in which The Outlook is compelled to admit and does admit "he has made out a very strong case for the economic achievements oe the Wilson administration." Mr. Price closes his powerful defence of the Democratic administration with these words: "Thanks to the conservatism, tact, and statesmanship of President Wilson, we have become the most powerful nation in the world, both mor ally and economically. That the majority of the American people recognize this and will insist upon retaining the services of a man who has served them so well, is a conclusion pf both logic and observation." The Outlook had as its editor at ine time, Theodore Roosevelt, but if le were editor now he could not suc:essfully answer the strong arguments put forth by Mr. Theodore Price, because they are unanswerable. The Outlook, in giving a reason for publishing Mr. Price's article, says: rne auothor (of this article) is one )f the clearest and most fair-minded social economists that we know." Mr. Price discusses seven great neasures of the adminstration that lave been urged by the President ind enacted into law. They are as 'ollows: "The Federal Reserve Act, the nost superlatively beneficial legislaion that any party has ever given to he people. Through it business has >een unfettered and panics have beome almost impossible. The Rural Credits Bill, which gives he farmer the same access to credit 1 hat has hitherto been reserved to 1 he business man. The Income Tax Law, that makes ' vealth pay a larger share of taxes. 1 The Good Roads Law, the Smith- 1 /ever Agricultural Act, and the Fed- ! ral Trade Commission Act are great onstructive measures. 1 The Post Office Department, that ' or years has been comlm-tod at i iderable loss, has been paying a good rofit under the present administra- 1 ion. The State Department, under the ersonal direction of the President, as secured for the nation the benets of peace with honor. t The Treasury Department, under j he management of Mr. W. G. Mc- \ idoo, has taken the lead in organiz- t ig many movements for the relief nd extension of commerce. I So all along the line this adminis- t ration has been working for the best | iterests of the whole people and f'orking successfully. i iEORCIA AND SOUTH CAROLINA The Augusta Chronicle has this ^ eadline across the first page an- N ouncing the result of the election in j eorgia and South Carolina: v "Dorsey, Watson and the Frank y use Sweep Georgia; But South Caro- J na Is Saved From More Bleaseism." In one of the most scathing edi- ^ rials ever written by the brilliant. Jitor of the Chronicle voters of eorgia are scored and roasted for (i srmitting the Frank case and the iti-Catholic crusade "to make pos- . ble the election to the Governorship u r a comparatively unknown and unied young man, with the Frank case i his chief issue. The Cnroniele closes the editorial r ith this consolatory sentence "Look at South Carolina?it is (j ily across the river." C( CONVERTED REPUBLICANS jj Congressman Mays, of Utah, is a ^ rogressive Republican, who will not ipport Mr. Hughes. In a recent eech in Congress he said that, hav- ^ g been reared in Kast Tennessee, u id grown up a Republican, he was ejudiced against everything: Demo- p, atic. He became disgusted with ? party because it became so in- ^ lved that it was no longer the meurn through which the will of the mmon people could find expression, i became a Progressive and assistin the organization of that party, it when the Progressive party faded Si ray Mr. Mays said that President ilson had met every crisis with hon- P? to the nation, just as the Progres- al e platform so wisely demanded." t*1 e able congressman concluded his ?ech with these strong statements it show that Mr. Hughes has not :ured and will not secure the ene support of the former followers 'I Theodore Roosevelt: "The Progres- | ? es will sustain the President. They r* THE FOOL By Edward The royal feast was < Sought some new s And to his jester cri Kneel down and m The jester doffed his And stood the moc They could not see t Behind the painted He bowed his head ai Upon the monarch'i His pleading voice an Be merciful to me, " 'Tis not by guilt the Of truth and right, 'Tis by our follies th; We hold the earth f "These clumsy feet, s Go crushing biosso These hard, well-meai Among the heart st "The ill-timed truth ' Who knows how shi The word we have n< I Who knows how g "Our faults no tendo The chasteninp stri But fur our blundersBefore the eyes of "Earth bears na balsa Men crown the kna That did their will; b Be merciful ti me, The room was hushed The Kinp and souk And walked apart an "God, be 'cerciful will uphold his hands. They will rebuke the schemiiiK demaKopues and intemperate jinKoes. They will repudiate the barpain of the bosses, sellinp their birthripht without their consent. This is evidenced bv the action of Progressives in many States." Mr. Mays' speech was received with loud applause by Democratic congressmen, who were glad to have the aid of a former Republican in sustaining the administration of President Wilson. And here's another converted Republican. Roger W. Babson, of Boston, Mass., a life-long Republican, says that he intends to vote and work for Woodrow Wilson. He says: "I am for Wilson because I believe that he has tried to apply the golden rule to solving great national and international problems. Any man, whether Republican or Democrat, who will attempt this will have my hearty support. "Personally, 1 fell it my duty to back up any administration which is working with this spirit. Furthermore, 1 believe that so long as this spirit is the guiding principle of the President he can be trusted in the working out of the Mexican problem, he submarine problem, the railroad iroblem and all other unprecedented | situations with which he has hud to leal." WHOLE WHEAT Ir> .... I ?| ui.uwn-1 V.UIUI1III upjIL'M rs .'in <*X- | client article from the Southern j turalist on the subject of "Whole rVheat," which we wish al! our readers would carefully p*?ruse Those who have not experienced he delightfully natural flavor of read made from the whole, undeached wheat as it comes from the land of nature, have missed much of he joy of eating. It has been demonstrated beyond possibility of doubt that white lour is robbed of its nourishment. *'o housewife would think of feedlg her chickens on white bread alone. ?o pig or cow could subsist upon it, et it is thought good enough for he human animal. Hut laying aside its superior nurient value, when once the custom f looking at pale, enemic bread is vercome, whole-wheat bread will be aten because it is delicious. To use a mathematical simile, white read is to whole-wheat bread as hot ater is to rich, amber coffee. ESOLUTIONS OF THE W. M. U. Kesoived?h irst; That the Chestereld W. M.

Hunley, Secretary of the Chesterfield County Fair Association, has just received the following letter from Dorman & Krause, confirming the contract under which they are r - * m i uriiisn amusement for all of Chesterfield County during Fair week this fall: 1 DORM AN & KRAUSE SHOWS i Geo. F. Dorman, Manager Dover, Del., Sept. 11, 1916. C. L. Ilunley, Secretary Fair Association, Chesterfield, S. C. i Dear Sir: Yours received to-day and glad to hear that everything looks good for the Fair. Confirming contract with you will i say that we will be with you as per | our contract, which should have been , acknowledged before. We showed at the Delaware State Fair at Wilmington, Del., last week and our attractions received the best of notices in the papers. With best wishes, Yours truly, Geo. F. Dorman, Well Tended George was hampered by a mother whose idea of godliness was clcanli1 ness. Notwithstanding the frequent I baths to which he was condemned I George thrived exceedingly. One I day a neighbor remarked on his rapid growth. "Yes," said George, "that's ma's fault. She waters me so much." Peanut growers of South Carolina recently appeared before the railroad commission in Columbia and asked that the rate on peanuts in South ' Carolina be reduced 35 per cent. The I railroads offer to reduce the rate 35 per cent. The commission will an- , nounce its decision in the near future.
