Tumulty's Nov. disLong Branch, reports from all parts of the cussing country with the president. Secretary statement claimTumulty Issued a Deutschland Answers Wilson At Shadow Lawn last Saturday Mr.

Wilson, in criticising the Republicans' position on the tariff, said: gentlemen make predictions about what is going to happen after the war which are absolutely incredible. wonder that they can make them with straght faces. They say that these nations, with 25,000,000 men devoted to destruction -their own destruction included- constituting 1 more than 50 per cent of the skilled mechanical force of those nations, are nevertheless and somehow secretly engaged in manufacturing a great body of products which are going to be dumped on us after the war, when they are struggling for their breath in the titanic struggle for their life. it they can get anybody but themselves to believe this, why, then, perhaps we ought to make ready for it; but they do not know what is going to happen after the war. don't know what is going to happen after the war, and you don't.

"The only thing that we can do is to prepare the impartial eyes and methods of inquiries which will find out for us what is happening as fast as it happens and then deal with the facts as they arrise." CALL MR. WILSONS ATTENTION TO THE FACT that the newspapers today are telling us that the Deutschland arose out of the ocean yesterday with ten million dollars' worth of goods direct from Germany. Evidently these goods have "been somehow secretly" manufactured while a large percentage of tiermany's mechanical force has been at war. Mr. Wilson says he does not know and nobody else knows what is going to happen after the war.

This shipment on the Deutschland is something tangible that has happen right now while German is at war, surrounded by a wall of steel, and is simply a forerunner of what is going to happen on a much larger scale when the war is over. Mr. Wilson says that the only thing that we can do to prepare the impartial eyes and methods of inquiries which will find out for us what is happening as fast as it. happens, and then deal with the facts as they arise." It would be difficult to find a more short-sighted policy than this. A statesman is supposed to be a man of some viston, some foresight, some abiltiy to look ahead farther than the end of his own nose.

Mr. Wilson's statement that we can do nothing to prepare for what is bound to happen in the future until something actually happens pretty nearly describes his entire course during the past three and a half years. It does not completely describe it, because Mr. Wilson has not'only waited always for something to happen, but even when it has happened he has taken 110 definite, final course. GEORGE W.

Two separate meetings were announced for the evening, one for prohibition and one for suffrage, but it was thought best to hold a joint meeting so that all interested could hear what the speakers had to say on both subjects, and the attendance justified the decision. The church was filled to its capacity.
