SATURDAY. . .NO VtlSMDEU 2, 1918 w 1 1 -son i i«;i:s this voters to K I i lOUT DIOMOCH ATS. President Asks for Democratic Sen- nto ami House as Yolo of Confi¬ dence, Asserting That Republican Victory would Ho Regarded as Re¬ pudiation Abroad Lodge and Oth¬ ers Rq/ply, Citing Republican Pa¬ triotism in Legilation and Attack ing Democratic Leaders # President Wilson yesterday issued an appeal to the electorate of tho country for a voto of confidence in his war administration. On the fifth of next month the entire membership of tho next House of Representativ¬ es will be elected; thirty-two senators whose seals become vacant by expira tion of their terms and several vacan¬ cies caused by death, to bo filled by special election. Tho President as¬ serts in ins letter addressed to his "fellow countrymen" that tho election of a Republican majority to either tho Senate or tho House "would bo certainly interpreted on "the oilier side of the water as a repudiation of my leadership." Republican leaders anticipated lh!s political coup, but tho issuance of the letter from the White House cro a ted a sensation. Democrats profess ed to be delighted, although it was reported that several influential load ors had advised against it as a mens ore of rather doubtful political wis dom. indignation and resentment was plainly evident among Republicans. ! 'Accepting tho President's statement j before Congress on May 27, (hat "pol itics is adjourned," minority loaders! pointed out how they had loyally abandoned politics and stood by tho President, supporting all war meas¬ ures, had hosted I ho liberty loan and refrained from any active campaign effort. Senators Lodge and Smoot and Re proBcntativos Gillette and Fess, re¬ presenting the leaders in both houses and the chairman of the Senatorial and Congressional campaign com¬ mittees, hold a conference and then issued a formal statement . Tho chal i lengo of the President was accepted and tho record of tho minority in support, of t'je President emphasized as exceeding that of his own parti¬ sans in tho Federal legislative bodies. Speaking outside the formal state meat one of t lie most influential Ro publican members of the Senate paid: "The gloves are off: from now on wo; fight with bare knuckles." Republi¬ cans declared t lie President's letter would react, and that thousands of] Democrats would resent what thoyi characterized as an attempt to "drive" voters of all parties into political sup port of tho Democratic administra¬ tion and abandon their right to exer- ciso their own judgment oa domestic! questions. THE APPEAL TO DEMOCRATS. I < Following is the President's ap¬ peal: My fellow countrymen: The con¬ gressional elections are at hand. They occur in I he most; critical poriod our country has ever faced or is likely to face in our time. If you have ap¬ proved of my leadership and wish mo to continue to he your unembarrass¬ ed spokesman in affairs at home and abroad, I earnestly beg that, you will express yourselves unmistakably to t hat effect by returning a Democratic majority to both the Senate and tho House of Representatives. I am your sorvant and "\7ill accept your judgment without cavil, but my power to administer the great task assigned me by tho Constitution would be seriously impaired 'should ? your judgment, bo adverse, and I must frankly tell you so because so many critical issues depend upon your verdict. No scruple of taste of speak ing the plain truth. "WOULD DIVIDE LEADERSHIP." I havo no thought, of suggesting that any political party is paramount in matters of patriotism. I feel too deeply tho sacrifices which have been made in this war by all our citizens irrespective of "party affiliations to1 harbor such an idea. I mean only that tho difficulties and delicacies of our present task are of a sort that makes it imperatively neccssary that tho nation should give its undivided support to the government under a unified leadership and that a IfopubH can Congress would divido tho lead¬ ership. The leaders of the minority in the present. Congress have unquestionably been pro-war, but they have been anti administration. At almost every turn since we entered the war they have sought, to take tho choice of policy and the conduct "of the war out of my hands and put it under the con troi of instrumentalities of tho:r own choosing. This is no timo either Tor divided council or divided leadership. Unity of command is as necessary now in civil action as it. is upon the field of battle. If the control of tho House and the Senate should he taken away from tho party now in power an op¬ posing majority could assume control of legislation and oblige all action to 1)0 taken amidst contest find obst.ruc tion. ALLIES TO SEE REPUDIATION. Tho rotnrn of a Republican major!- ty (o oillior House of tho Congress would, moreovor, l>o interpretative on tho otlior sido of the water as a re¬ pudiation of my leadership. Spokes men of the Republican party are urg ing you (o elect n Republican Con¬ gress in order to hack up and sup¬ port tho President, hut even if ttioy should in this impose upon some ere dulolls voters on this side of tho water they would impose on .no one on tho other ( side. It is well* under¬ stood there as well as hero that tho 'Pjcpuhlicau leaders desire not so much to support tho President as to con trol him The peoples of tho allied countries with whom we are associated against Germany are quite familiar with the significance o,f elections. They would1 find it very difficult to helicvo that the voters of the United States had chosen to support their President hy electing to tho Congress a majority controlled hy those who are not in fact, in sympathy with tho attitude and action of tho administration. PLEADS FOR "'INWARD UNITY." I need not tell 'you, my fellow coun¬ trymen that I am asking your sup-j port not for my sake or : for tho sake of a political! party, but for tho sake of tho nation j itself In order that its inward unity! of purpose may he evident to all the J world. In ordinary times, T would not feel at liberty to make such an appeal to. you. In ordinary times di¬ vided councils can he endured with oil t permanent hurt to the country. Put these are not ordinary times. If in these critical days it is your wish to sustain me with undivided minds I beg that yort will say so in a way which it will not. be possible to misunderstand either hero at homo or among oar associates on the other side of t lie sea. I submit my difficulties and my hopes to you. WOODltOW WILSON. LETTER ELATES DEMOCRATS. The President's letter was received with keen elation among the great majority of the Democratic senators and representatives. They seemed to believe that it would greatly strength en their chances for maintaining their hold 011 both houses of Con¬ gress. Upon this question there has. been much uneasiness of late among Dcin ocrat ie leaders and members of the majority party have remained at their ! public duties under duress solely. 1 They have had no opportunity to get out among their constituents and the | public, appeal of the President for 1 votes came to them as a bright omen of possible victory. There are upward of HO districts where sitting members of the Demo emtio side have only a narrow mar gin to their credit in the vote that Ftavo them their present; scats, and where determined opposition to their return is showing itself. To those Democrats who defied tho President and voted against, suffrage the letter gave personal relief. These members I interpreted tho executive's statement as an indorsement even of their can didacy and as an evidence that he had | no intention of interfering with their | campaign for reelection. T1IE RKPUIHACANS 1U3TOIIT. The statement Issued by Republi¬ can lenders in Congress follows: Sometime ago tlie President said "politics is adjourned." Now, In the closing days of tbe campaign delay¬ ed by tho united efforts of ail parties for tbe liberty loan now, when all public meetings have been given tip owing to tbe influenza epidemic, tbe President sends out a direct parly appeal culling upon bis countrymen lo vote for Domoroats because they are Democrats without any reference to whether such Democrats have been or are in favor of war measures, and have a war record which deserves sup Port . The voters of Michigan, to take a single example aro called upon to sup port Mr. Henry Eord notorious for I ho advocacy of peace at any price for bis contemptuous allusions to the flag, for the exemption of his son j from military sorvice -on the sole [ground that be will blindly support the President. The President is quite ready to admit that Republicans are loyal enough to fight and die, as they are doing by the thousands, loyal enough to take up great loans and pay enormous taxes; loyal enough to furnish important men at no salary on .some of tho great war boards in Washington. But. they are not loyal enough in tho President's opinion to be trusted with any sharo in The gov ernment of the country or legisla¬ tion for it. PURPOSES' IN THE HOUSE. If tho Repnbllca/n party controls tho IIouso wo can point out some of tho things they will do. They will replace Mr. Dent of Alabama at tho head of tho military affairs commit tee with Mr. Julius Kahn, to whom the administration was obliged lo turn for assistance lo take charge of and carry the first draft bill against Mr. Dent's opposition. They will put a Republican at tho head of the ways and means" com¬ mittee as leader of tho House instead of Mr. Kitchln, of North Carolina, who voted against tho war. They will givo (he country a Speaker who did not oppose and would not opposo a draft, bill, and would novcr say, as Speaker Clark said, that "tlwVo is percious llttlo differenco between a conscript and a convict." Although the Ttepubrcnns of tho House are In tho minority, they cast more actual votes on seven groat war measures than tho Democratic ma¬ jority was ablo to do. RECORD IN THE SENATE. What is the rocord of tho Senate? On 51 roll calls on war measures bo Tween April f», 1017 and May 21), 1918 tho votes cast by Repuhlfeans in fav¬ or of such measuros were 72 por cent whilo only 67 por cent of the ?oto» cast on tho Democratic aido I v ore in favor of such measures. Ihoso were President's own moasures. Does that record look as if we had hampered Jiim, The Republican party in Congress has supported Hie mi nil it ist ration policies since the war with a unanimity and an absence of criti¬ cism unprecedented in tho parly h.'s tory. 1 here aro some domestic questions wlioro we should undoubtedly differ from tho course pursued by (ho ad¬ ministration. Wo should not, for ox ample, fix a price on the farmer's! j wheat and leave the planter's cot-f 'ton untouched. Another domestic question in' which tho Republican i party believes thoroughly is cconotn-, U; preparation for the coming of peace and they are clearly of the opin ion that the Congress of the United States should not be excluded front that great task. I { NOT HIS "PERSONAL WAR." ! ibis is not the President's person¬ al war. This is not tho war of Con¬ gress. It is not the war of the Demo¬ cratic nor tho Republican party, it is the war of t lie American people. It is more. It is the war of tho Unit¬ ed Slates of the allied powers of tho civilized world against the barbar¬ ism of Germany. In this great bur¬ den and responsibility tho Republican parly representing more than half the citizenship of the eountrv de¬ mands its rightful share. If tho Republican party is entrust ed with power in cither or both lions os they will do everything possible to drive 'forward the war and hasten the day of victory. The President speaks of the necessity of lolling the plain truth. That the Republican party in control of Congress would do for the have no friends to shield and they will do more. They" will give all the money to the last dollar accessary to sustain our armies and jour fleets, but they will check the waste now going on of tho money given by the most generous people on the face of tho earth.. The President speaks of the effect of tlio election abroad Tie says that there they understand the meaning of election . They do and they will [know that if the Republicans liavo a majority in Congress tho war will lie pressed with greater vigor than ever before. They are quile aware that the power of the Senate is equal to that of the President in the con summation of pcaco by treaty. STANDS FOR VICTORIOUS FEACE They will know that tho Republi¬ can party stands for a victorious | peace and the overthrow of Prussian | militarism'. That knowledge will not depress the spirit of our allies or on , courage the government of Germany. Tho Republican party believes that the question of surrender should be left to Marshal Foeh to the generals and to tho armies on the field. When they report thai Germany has laid down her arms the United Stales and tho allies should then impose their terms. Will that knowledge cause dejection to those who are fighting with us? All the world knows that ilio Republican party is opposed to negotiations and discussion (Jirrfiod 011 in diplomatic notes addressed to the Gorman government. Tho Re publican party stands; for uncondition ¦nl surrender. There is no Republican creed so short that there is not room in it for those two words. TIFNRY CAHOT LODGE, REED SMOOT.

Tho formal statement issued by Re publican lenders was accepted by every Republican member of tho Sen ato and House as a conclusive answer to tho President's letter. Upon tho_issues as made up in tho text of the two documents Republi¬ cans said last night they wero con tent to go to the country in tho elec lions next month confident that the voters would exerciso their individ¬ ual judgment as to how they should cast their ballots. Republican loaders pointed to the President's "politics Is adjourned" statement in his address to Congress 011 May 27, when no asked Congress to remain in Washington through the summer and revise tho war rovonuo bill. OPINION OF G. O. P. LEADERS. It was in lliat address that tho President said: I "Politics is adjourned.

London, October 21.-.Tho text ot the German note as received by wire less, is as follows: In accepting tho proposal for an evacuation of occupied territories the German government has started from the assumption that the procedure of this evacuation and of the conditions of an armistice should he left to tho judgment of the military advisers and that the actual standard of pow or on both sides in tho field lias to form the basis for arrangements safe guarding and guaranteeing (his stand ard . Tho German government suggests to the President that an opportunity should be brought about for fixing the details. It trusts that tho Presi¬ dent of i ho United States will approve of no demand which would bo irre¬ concilable with the honor of tho Gcr man peoplo and with opening way to a peaeo of justico. Tho German government protests against tho reproach of illegal and inhumane actions made against tho German land and sea forces and there by against tho German peoplo. For the covering of a retreat destructions will always be necessary, and they are carried out in so far as is permit ted by international law. The Ger¬ man troops are under most strict in st ructions to spare private property and to exercise caro for tho popula¬ tion to tho best of their ability. Whero transgressions occur in spite of those | instructions the guilty are being pun { ished . | Tho German government further denies that the German navy in sink ing ships has ever purposely destroy ed lifeboats with their passengers. Tho German government proposes with regard to all those charges that) the facts be cleared up by neutral commissions . In order to avoid anything that might hamper the work of peace, the Gorman government has caused orders' to be dispatched to all submarine commanders precluding the torpedo ing of passenger ships without, how' ever for technical reasons, being able to guarantee that these orders will reach every single submarine at sea before its Ve.turn. I As a fundamental condition for peace tho President prescribes the destruction of every arbitrary power that can separately secretly and of its own single choice disturb the; peace of tho world. To this the Gcr man government replies: Hitherto' tho representation or tho peoplo in' tho German empire has not been on! (lowed with an inllueuco on liio forma t ion did not provide for a concurrence of tho government. The constitn- of representation of tho people In decisions of peace and war. These conditions have just now undergone a fundamental chango A new govo ernmvnt has boon formed in complete accordance with the wishes (prlnci-| plo?) of the representation of the people, based on equal, universal, so cret direct franchise. The leaders of tho groat, parties of' the rcichstag are numbers of this' go\ eminent. In the future no govern mont can take or continue in office without possessing the confidence of a majority of the reichstag. The re sponsibility of tho chancellor of the empire to the representations of the peoplo is being legally developed and safeguarded. Tho first act of the now government has been to lay before tho rcichstag a bill to alter the con stitution of the empire so that tho consent of the representation of tho people is required for decisions on war and peace. 1 he permanence of fTTo iu»w system is however, guaranteed not only by constitutional safeguards, but also by flie unshakable determination of the German peoplo whoso vast majori ty stands behind thoso reforms and demands their energetic continuance. The question of tho President . with whom he and (lie government associ ated against; Germany are dealing .¦ is therefore answered fn a Id ear un equivocal manner by the statement that the offer of poaco and an armis¬ tice has come from a government which is freo from any arbitrary and irresponsible influence, is supported by the approval of an overwhelming majority of tho Gorman people. (SIGNKD) SOLF. . I PRESIDENT WILSON'S LAST COM MUNICATION TO RERLIN. From tho Secretary of (bo Slato to the chargo d'affaires of Switzerland, ad interim, in charge of Gorman in teresta in the United States: Department of State, October 14, 1018. In reply to the communication of tho German government dated tho 12 instant which you handed mo to¬ day I have the honor to request you to transmit, the following answer: Tho unqualified acceptance by tho present German government and by a largo majority of the v°iehstag of tho terms laid down by the President of the United States of America in his address to tho Congress of "tho United States on the 8th of January 1S08, and in his subsequent address¬ es justifies the President in making a frank and direct statement of his ; decision with regard to tho communt cation of the German government of the 8th and 12th of October, 1918. It must be clearly understood that the process of evacuation and tho con ditions of an armistice aro matters which must bo left to the judgment land advico of tho military advico ad- I visors of tho government, of tho Unif¬ ied States and tho allied government jam: tho President fools it hia duty to say that no arrangement can bo accepted by tho government of tho J United States which does not pro- j vided absolutely satisfactory safe¬ guards and guarantees of tho main j tenanco of tho present military su¬ premacy of tho armies of tho United States and of the allies in tho fiolds. | Ho fools confident that ho can safe )ly assumo that this will also bo the judgment aud doclsion of tho nTliod governments. Tlio President feels that it 5s also his duty to add that neither tho gov crnment of the United States nor, ho is quite sure, tho government with which tho government of tho United States is associated as belligerent will consent to consider an armistice' so long as the armed forces of Ger- many con^inuos the illegal and in humane practices which they still persist in, ' At the very time that tho German; government approaches the govern- j ment of tho United States with pro posals of peace its submarines are en gaged in sinking passenger ships at sea and not the ships alone but the very boats in which their passengers' and crows seek to make their way to safety; and in their present enforc- j ed withdrawal from Flanders and Franco the Gorman1 armies are pur, suing a course of wanton destruction which has always been regarded as in direct violation of the rules and j practices of civilized warfare. Cities and villages, if not destroyed aro he1 in^ stripped of all they contain not only hut often of their very inhabi¬ tants. The nations associated against Ger many cannot be expected to agree to! a. cessation of arms whilo acts of In humanity, spoliation and desolation are being continued which they just ly look upon with horror and with burning hearts. it is necessary also in order that thero may be no possibility of mis understanding, that the President should very solemnly call tho atten Hon of the government of Germany to the language and plain intent of one of tho terms of peaco which tho German government has now accept¬ ed. It is contained in tho address of tho President delivered at Mount Ver non on tho Fourth of July last. It is as follows: "Tho destruction of every arbitrary power anywhere that can separately secretly and of its single choice disturb the peace of the world; or if it cannot bo present ly destroyed at. least its reduction to; virtual inipotency." The power which has hitherto con J trolled the German nation is of Uie sort here described. It is within the choico of the German nation to alter it. Tho President's words just quoted naturally constitute a condition pro cedent to peace, if peace is to come by tho action of the German people themselves. The President feels bound to say that the whole process of peace will In his judgment, depend upon the deflnitenoss and tho satisfactory character of the guarantees which can be given in this fundamental mat tor. It is indispensable that tho gov eminent s associated against. Germany should know beyond a preadventuro with whom they are dealing. Tho President will mako a separato reply to tho royal and' imperial gov crnment of Austria-Hungary. Accept, sir, the renwed assurances of my high consideration. (Signed) RJOBEIIT LANSING.

President Asks for Democratic Sen-nto ami House as Yolo of Confi¬dence, Asserting That RepublicanVictory would Ho Regarded as Re¬pudiation Abroad Lodge and Oth¬ers Rq/ply, Citing Republican Pa¬triotism in Legilation and Attacking Democratic Leaders

#

President Wilson yesterday issuedan appeal to the electorate of thocountry for a voto of confidence inhis war administration. On the fifthof next month the entire membershipof tho next House of Representativ¬es will be elected; thirty-two senatorswhose seals become vacant by expiration of their terms and several vacan¬cies caused by death, to bo filled byspecial election. Tho President as¬serts in ins letter addressed to his"fellow countrymen" that tho electionof a Republican majority to eithertho Senate or tho House "would bocertainly interpreted on "the oilierside of the water as a repudiationof my leadership."

Republican leaders anticipated lh!spolitical coup, but tho issuance ofthe letter from the White House croated a sensation. Democrats professed to be delighted, although it was

reported that several influential loadors had advised against it as a mensore of rather doubtful political wisdom. indignation and resentment was

plainly evident among Republicans. !'Accepting tho President's statement jbefore Congress on May 27, (hat "politics is adjourned," minority loaders!pointed out how they had loyallyabandoned politics and stood by thoPresident, supporting all war meas¬ures, had hosted I ho liberty loan andrefrained from any active campaigneffort.

Senators Lodge and Smoot and ReproBcntativos Gillette and Fess, re¬

presenting the leaders in both housesand the chairman of the Senatorialand Congressional campaign com¬mittees, hold a conference and thenissued a formal statement . Tho chal i

lengo of the President was acceptedand tho record of tho minority insupport, of t'je President emphasizedas exceeding that of his own parti¬sans in tho Federal legislative bodies.Speaking outside the formal state

meat one of t lie most influential Ropublican members of the Senate paid:"The gloves are off: from now on wo;fight with bare knuckles." Republi¬cans declared t lie President's letterwould react, and that thousands of]Democrats would resent what thoyicharacterized as an attempt to "drive"voters of all parties into political support of tho Democratic administra¬tion and abandon their right to exer-ciso their own judgment oa domestic!questions.

THE APPEAL TO DEMOCRATS. I<

Following is the President's ap¬peal:

My fellow countrymen: The con¬gressional elections are at hand. Theyoccur in I he most; critical poriod ourcountry has ever faced or is likelyto face in our time. If you have ap¬proved of my leadership and wish moto continue to he your unembarrass¬ed spokesman in affairs at home andabroad, I earnestly beg that, you willexpress yourselves unmistakably tot hat effect by returning a Democraticmajority to both the Senate and thoHouse of Representatives.

I am your sorvant and "\7ill acceptyour judgment without cavil, but mypower to administer the great taskassigned me by tho Constitutionwould be seriously impaired 'should

? your judgment, bo adverse, and Imust frankly tell you so because so

many critical issues depend upon yourverdict. No scruple of taste of speaking the plain truth.

"WOULD DIVIDE LEADERSHIP."

I havo no thought, of suggestingthat any political party is paramountin matters of patriotism. I feel toodeeply tho sacrifices which have beenmade in this war by all our citizensirrespective of "party affiliations to1harbor such an idea. I mean onlythat tho difficulties and delicacies ofour present task are of a sort thatmakes it imperatively neccssary thattho nation should give its undividedsupport to the government under aunified leadership and that a IfopubHcan Congress would divido tho lead¬ership.The leaders of the minority in the

present. Congress have unquestionablybeen pro-war, but they have been antiadministration. At almost every turnsince we entered the war they havesought, to take tho choice of policyand the conduct "of the war out ofmy hands and put it under the controi of instrumentalities of tho:r ownchoosing.This is no timo either Tor divided

council or divided leadership. Unityof command is as necessary now incivil action as it. is upon the field ofbattle. If the control of tho Houseand the Senate should he taken awayfrom tho party now in power an op¬posing majority could assume controlof legislation and oblige all action to1)0 taken amidst contest find obst.ruction.

ALLIES TO SEE REPUDIATION.Tho rotnrn of a Republican major!-

ty (o oillior House of tho Congresswould, moreovor, l>o interpretative ontho otlior sido of the water as a re¬pudiation of my leadership. Spokesmen of the Republican party are urging you (o elect n Republican Con¬gress in order to hack up and sup¬port tho President, hut even if ttioyshould in this impose upon some eredulolls voters on this side of thowater they would impose on .no oneon tho other ( side. It is well* under¬stood there as well as hero that tho'Pjcpuhlicau leaders desire not so muchto support tho President as to control himThe peoples of tho allied countries

with whom we are associated againstGermany are quite familiar with thesignificance o,f elections. They would1find it very difficult to helicvo thatthe voters of the United States hadchosen to support their President hyelecting to tho Congress a majoritycontrolled hy those who are not infact, in sympathy with tho attitudeand action of tho administration.

PLEADS FOR "'INWARD UNITY."

I need not tell 'you, my fellow coun¬trymen that I am asking your sup-jport not for my sake or :for tho sake of a political!party, but for tho sake of tho nation jitself In order that its inward unity!of purpose may he evident to all the

J world. In ordinary times, T wouldnot feel at liberty to make such anappeal to. you. In ordinary times di¬vided councils can he endured withoil t permanent hurt to the country.Put these are not ordinary times.

If in these critical days it is yourwish to sustain me with undividedminds I beg that yort will say so ina way which it will not. be possibleto misunderstand either hero athomo or among oar associates on theother side of t lie sea. I submit mydifficulties and my hopes to you.

WOODltOW WILSON.

LETTER ELATES DEMOCRATS.

The President's letter was receivedwith keen elation among the greatmajority of the Democratic senatorsand representatives. They seemed tobelieve that it would greatly strengthen their chances for maintainingtheir hold 011 both houses of Con¬gress.Upon this question there has. been

much uneasiness of late among Dcinocrat ie leaders and members of themajority party have remained at their

! public duties under duress solely.1 They have had no opportunity to get

out among their constituents and the| public, appeal of the President for

1 votes came to them as a bright omenof possible victory.There are upward of HO districts

where sitting members of the Demoemtio side have only a narrow margin to their credit in the vote thatFtavo them their present; scats, andwhere determined opposition to theirreturn is showing itself. To thoseDemocrats who defied tho Presidentand voted against, suffrage the lettergave personal relief. These members

I interpreted tho executive's statementas an indorsement even of their candidacy and as an evidence that he had

| no intention of interfering with their| campaign for reelection.

T1IE RKPUIHACANS 1U3TOIIT.

The statement Issued by Republi¬can lenders in Congress follows:

Sometime ago tlie President said"politics is adjourned." Now, In theclosing days of tbe campaign delay¬ed by tho united efforts of ail partiesfor tbe liberty loan now, when allpublic meetings have been given tipowing to tbe influenza epidemic, tbePresident sends out a direct parlyappeal culling upon bis countrymenlo vote for Domoroats because theyare Democrats without any referenceto whether such Democrats have beenor are in favor of war measures, andhave a war record which deserves supPort .

The voters of Michigan, to take asingle example aro called upon to support Mr. Henry Eord notorious forIho advocacy of peace at any pricefor bis contemptuous allusions to theflag, for the exemption of his son

j from military sorvice -on the sole[ground that be will blindly supportthe President. The President is quiteready to admit that Republicans areloyal enough to fight and die, as theyare doing by the thousands, loyalenough to take up great loans andpay enormous taxes; loyal enough tofurnish important men at no salaryon .some of tho great war boards inWashington. But. they are not loyalenough in tho President's opinion tobe trusted with any sharo in The government of the country or legisla¬tion for it.

PURPOSES' IN THE HOUSE.

If tho Repnbllca/n party controlstho IIouso wo can point out some oftho things they will do. They willreplace Mr. Dent of Alabama at thohead of tho military affairs committee with Mr. Julius Kahn, to whomthe administration was obliged lo turnfor assistance lo take charge of andcarry the first draft bill against Mr.Dent's opposition.They will put a Republican at tho

head of the ways and means" com¬mittee as leader of tho House insteadof Mr. Kitchln, of North Carolina,who voted against tho war. They willgivo (he country a Speaker who didnot oppose and would not opposo adraft, bill, and would novcr say, asSpeaker Clark said, that "tlwVois percious llttlo differenco betweena conscript and a convict."Although the Ttepubrcnns of tho

House are In tho minority, they castmore actual votes on seven groat warmeasures than tho Democratic ma¬jority was ablo to do.

RECORD IN THE SENATE.

What is the rocord of tho Senate?On 51 roll calls on war measures boTween April f», 1017 and May 21), 1918tho votes cast by Repuhlfeans in fav¬or of such measuros were 72 porcent whilo only 67 por cent of the?oto» cast on tho Democratic aido

Iv ore in favor of such measures.Ihoso were President's own moasures.Does that record look as if we hadhampered Jiim, The Republican partyin Congress has supported Hie mi nil itist ration policies since the war witha unanimity and an absence of criti¬cism unprecedented in tho parly h.'story.

1 here aro some domestic questionswlioro we should undoubtedly differfrom tho course pursued by (ho ad¬ministration. Wo should not, for oxample, fix a price on the farmer's!

j wheat and leave the planter's cot-f'ton untouched. Another domesticquestion in' which tho Republican

i party believes thoroughly is cconotn-,U; preparation for the coming ofpeace and they are clearly of the opinion that the Congress of the UnitedStates should not be excluded frontthat great task. I {NOT HIS "PERSONAL WAR." !ibis is not the President's person¬

al war. This is not tho war of Con¬gress. It is not the war of the Demo¬cratic nor tho Republican party, itis the war of t lie American people.It is more. It is the war of tho Unit¬ed Slates of the allied powers of thocivilized world against the barbar¬ism of Germany. In this great bur¬den and responsibility tho Republicanparly representing more than halfthe citizenship of the eountrv de¬mands its rightful share.

If tho Republican party is entrusted with power in cither or both lionsos they will do everything possibleto drive 'forward the war and hastenthe day of victory. The Presidentspeaks of the necessity of lolling theplain truth. That the Republicanparty in control of Congress woulddo for the have no friends to shieldand they will do more. They" willgive all the money to the last dollaraccessary to sustain our armies andjour fleets, but they will check thewaste now going on of tho moneygiven by the most generous peopleon the face of tho earth..The President speaks of the effect

of tlio election abroad Tie says thatthere they understand the meaningof election . They do and they will[know that if the Republicans liavoa majority in Congress tho war willlie pressed with greater vigor thanever before. They are quile awarethat the power of the Senate is equalto that of the President in the consummation of pcaco by treaty.

STANDS FOR VICTORIOUS FEACE

They will know that tho Republi¬can party stands for a victorious

| peace and the overthrow of Prussian

| militarism'. That knowledge will notdepress the spirit of our allies or on

, courage the government of Germany.Tho Republican party believes that

the question of surrender should beleft to Marshal Foeh to the generalsand to tho armies on the field. Whenthey report thai Germany has laiddown her arms the United Stales andtho allies should then impose theirterms. Will that knowledge cause

dejection to those who are fightingwith us? All the world knows thatilio Republican party is opposed tonegotiations and discussion (Jirrfiod011 in diplomatic notes addressed tothe Gorman government. Tho Republican party stands; for uncondition¦nl surrender. There is no Republicancreed so short that there is not roomin it for those two words.

ACCEPTED AS COMPREHENSIVE.'Tho formal statement issued by Re

publican lenders was accepted byevery Republican member of tho Senato and House as a conclusive answerto tho President's letter.Upon tho_issues as made up in tho

text of the two documents Republi¬cans said last night they wero content to go to the country in tho eleclions next month confident that thevoters would exerciso their individ¬ual judgment as to how they shouldcast their ballots.Republican loaders pointed to the

President's "politics Is adjourned"statement in his address to Congress011 May 27, when no asked Congressto remain in Washington through thesummer and revise tho war rovonuobill.

i

The Text of Germany's Now lVacoAppeal to the President of

the I'nitcd Stales.

London, October 21.-.Tho text otthe German note as received by wireless, is as follows:In accepting tho proposal for an

evacuation of occupied territories theGerman government has started fromthe assumption that the procedure ofthis evacuation and of the conditionsof an armistice should he left to thojudgment of the military advisersand that the actual standard of powor on both sides in tho field lias toform the basis for arrangements safeguarding and guaranteeing (his standard .

Tho German government suggeststo the President that an opportunityshould be brought about for fixingthe details. It trusts that tho Presi¬dent of i ho United States will approveof no demand which would bo irre¬concilable with the honor of tho Gcrman peoplo and with opening wayto a peaeo of justico.Tho German government protests

against tho reproach of illegal andinhumane actions made against thoGerman land and sea forces and thereby against tho German peoplo. Forthe covering of a retreat destructionswill always be necessary, and theyare carried out in so far as is permitted by international law. The Ger¬man troops are under most strict inst ructions to spare private propertyand to exercise caro for tho popula¬tion to tho best of their ability. Wherotransgressions occur in spite of those |instructions the guilty are being pun {ished . |

Tho German government furtherdenies that the German navy in sinking ships has ever purposely destroyed lifeboats with their passengers.Tho German government proposeswith regard to all those charges that)the facts be cleared up by neutralcommissions .

In order to avoid anything thatmight hamper the work of peace, theGorman government has caused orders'to be dispatched to all submarinecommanders precluding the torpedoing of passenger ships without, how'ever for technical reasons, being ableto guarantee that these orders willreach every single submarine at seabefore its Ve.turn. IAs a fundamental condition for

peace tho President prescribes thedestruction of every arbitrary powerthat can separately secretly and ofits own single choice disturb the;peace of tho world. To this the Gcrman government replies: Hitherto'

tho representation or tho peoplo in'tho German empire has not been on!(lowed with an inllueuco on liio format ion did not provide for a concurrenceof tho government. The constitn-of representation of tho people Indecisions of peace and war. Theseconditions have just now undergonea fundamental chango A new govoernmvnt has boon formed in completeaccordance with the wishes (prlnci-|plo?) of the representation of thepeople, based on equal, universal, socret direct franchise.The leaders of tho groat, parties of'the rcichstag are numbers of this'

go\ eminent. In the future no governmont can take or continue in officewithout possessing the confidence ofa majority of the reichstag. The responsibility of tho chancellor of theempire to the representations of thepeoplo is being legally developed andsafeguarded. Tho first act of the nowgovernment has been to lay beforetho rcichstag a bill to alter the constitution of the empire so that thoconsent of the representation of thopeople is required for decisions onwar and peace.

1 he permanence of fTTo iu»w systemis however, guaranteed not only byconstitutional safeguards, but also

by flie unshakable determination ofthe German peoplo whoso vast majority stands behind thoso reforms anddemands their energetic continuance.The question of tho President. withwhom he and (lie government associated against; Germany are dealing.¦

is therefore answered fn aIdear unequivocal manner by the statementthat the offer of poaco and an armis¬tice has come from a governmentwhich is freo from any arbitrary andirresponsible influence, is supportedby the approval of an overwhelmingmajority of tho Gorman people.

PRESIDENT WILSON'S LAST COMMUNICATION TO RERLIN.

From tho Secretary of (bo Slato tothe chargo d'affaires of Switzerland,ad interim, in charge of Gorman interesta in the United States:

Department of State,October 14, 1018.

In reply to the communication oftho German government dated tho12 instant which you handed mo to¬day I have the honor to request youto transmit, the following answer:Tho unqualified acceptance by tho

present German government and bya largo majority of the v°iehstag oftho terms laid down by the Presidentof the United States of America inhis address to tho Congress of "thoUnited States on the 8th of January1S08, and in his subsequent address¬es justifies the President in makinga frank and direct statement of his

; decision with regard to tho communtcation of the German government ofthe 8th and 12th of October, 1918.

It must be clearly understood thatthe process of evacuation and tho conditions of an armistice aro matterswhich must bo left to the judgmentland advico of tho military advico ad-

I visors of tho government, of tho Unif¬ied States and tho allied governmentjam: tho President fools it hia dutyto say that no arrangement can boaccepted by tho government of tho

J United States which does not pro-j vided absolutely satisfactory safe¬guards and guarantees of tho main

j tenanco of tho present military su¬premacy of tho armies of tho UnitedStates and of the allies in tho fiolds.

| Ho fools confident that ho can safe)ly assumo that this will also bo thejudgment aud doclsion of tho nTliod

governments.Tlio President feels that it 5s also

his duty to add that neither tho govcrnment of the United States nor, hois quite sure, tho government withwhich tho government of tho UnitedStates is associated as belligerentwill consent to consider an armistice'so long as the armed forces of Ger-many con^inuos the illegal and inhumane practices which they stillpersist in,' At the very time that tho German;government approaches the govern- jment of tho United States with proposals of peace its submarines are engaged in sinking passenger ships atsea and not the ships alone but thevery boats in which their passengers'and crows seek to make their wayto safety; and in their present enforc- jed withdrawal from Flanders andFranco the Gorman1 armies are pur,suing a course of wanton destructionwhich has always been regarded asin direct violation of the rules and jpractices of civilized warfare. Citiesand villages, if not destroyed aro he1in^ stripped of all they contain notonly hut often of their very inhabi¬tants.The nations associated against Ger

many cannot be expected to agree to!a. cessation of arms whilo acts of Inhumanity, spoliation and desolationare being continued which they justly look upon with horror and withburning hearts.

it is necessary also in order thatthero may be no possibility of misunderstanding, that the Presidentshould very solemnly call tho attenHon of the government of Germanyto the language and plain intent ofone of tho terms of peaco which thoGerman government has now accept¬ed. It is contained in tho address oftho President delivered at Mount Vernon on tho Fourth of July last.

It is as follows: "Tho destructionof every arbitrary power anywherethat can separately secretly and ofits single choice disturb the peace ofthe world; or if it cannot bo presently destroyed at. least its reduction to;virtual inipotency."The power which has hitherto con J

trolled the German nation is of Uiesort here described. It is within thechoico of the German nation to alterit. Tho President's words just quotednaturally constitute a condition procedent to peace, if peace is to comeby tho action of the German peoplethemselves. The President feels boundto say that the whole process of peacewill In his judgment, depend uponthe deflnitenoss and tho satisfactorycharacter of the guarantees whichcan be given in this fundamental mattor. It is indispensable that tho goveminent s associated against. Germanyshould know beyond a preadventurowith whom they are dealing.Tho President will mako a separato

reply to tho royal and' imperial govcrnment of Austria-Hungary.

Accept, sir, the renwed assurancesof my high consideration.
