YOUNGSTOWN, o.. Sept. 5.-Aside
from formally defining issues, both ma
tional and state, the opening of the
republican campaign in Ohio here to-
day, according TO republican critics,
developed an important fact namely,
that Governor Charles j. Hughes OF
New York viii be in great demand out
side of his own state during the ma
tionsl campaign. The governor, toi-
lowing a mastery effort by Senator
BeVeridge, not only held the attention
OF a crowd of thousands who had been
listening to other speeches for hours,
but moved them to vigorous outbursts
OF applause and was fairly mobbed
when he finished Dy hundreds who
pressed forward to shake his hands.
Hughes satirical comments on Will
lam J. Bryan's ideas for regulating
trusts called forth shouts of laughter
Revision of the tariff and continuance
of the policies OF President Roosevelt
and in. Ohio county wide local option
were the keynotes sounded

Governor Hughes delivered impressive
speeches dealing with national issues,
while Governor Andrew l. Harris, re-
nominated by his party, devoted him
self 10 questions of import 10 the
state of Ohio.
Both Hughes and Beveridge dealt
kindly with Pryan in his personal ca
pacity but insisted that he was
dreamer OF dreams, a preacher and not
an executive. Glowing tributes were
paid to President Roosevelt Both
speakers insisted on a revision of the
tariff from A protective to maximum
and minimum basis in line with the
policy of Germany and France.
Tariff for revenue only, Beveridge
declared. was obsolete, and the purely
protective tariff out OF date. Under a
maximum and minimum tariff, he said.
Germany had forged ahead to the front
rank in the volume and value of her
foreign trade.

sponsibility for the reforms TO come,
through the same undaunted, oft de-
feated. but never despondent leaders as
smiable and inventive as ever, If not
SO brilliant and courageous, the demo-
automatic, self-executing, short cut,
cross lots alluring schemes to instantly
eradicate all evils and at once bring
about the desirable aitruistic state
where all are -equired TO be and there
fore viii be honest and square, free
from evil, abuse or oppression and
therefore happy, and contented in a
utopian equality Of guaranteed pros
perity Again they build their demo-
cratic tower on their democratic plain
OF Shinar and again there viii be the
democratic confusion of tongues after
a democratic defeat.
HUGHES SEES us DOUBLE

outdoor demonstration. Governor
