Mr. Fishburne is a good speaker and Mr. Titlow is a well known attorney of Tacoma, said to be an excellent speaker. Mr. C. O. Jackson, democratic committeeman for this precinct said yesterday, "We will have a larger crowd than the republicans. We think that this precinct will go for the democrats and also believe that the people want to hear some prominent democrats and so we are staging this rally. We will take up the issues of the day. As to Mr. Askren's criticism of Mr. Wilson's Mexican policy, I have this to say. There is one other course to pursue and that is actual invasion of Mexico. Is that what the people want? I do not think so. How could the situation be handled otherwise? As to the railroad strike, everyone will have to admit that Wilson handled that in the only possible way. Think of the panic that would have followed a strike. What different policy would the republicans have followed in dealing with the foreign countries. There are people in this country who think that we should assist England, as witness the statements of our old friend, T. R. who says that we should have resisted the invasion of Belgium. Wilson stands for the rights of the mass of the people. Just come and hear us democrats tear holes in those republican candidates' talks." NATIONAL NEWS A son was born to Mr. and Mrs. T. O.
