DIR. HUGHES SWEEPS CITY.
Gets Tremendous applause at Sir
Big Meetings.

A whirlwind tour, not OF the conventional sort,
but sInacking truly Of the tornado variety, was
made by Governor Hughes last night, when he
swept the city from furthest Harlem down 10
the East Side, speaking at six enthusiastic meet
ings Just how many persons heard him or
made strenuous efforts to hear him would be
difficult to say, for each hall in which he ap-
peared was filed and the streets outside re-
quired all the efforts of the police to keep them
clear
Although Governor Hughes had just completed
a five days tour up the state and had spoken in
ten counties, he in the best of form last
night. and appeared fully to enjoy explaining
his position and the position of his party on
state and national questions. From a local
standpoint he aroused the greatest enthusiasm
when ne reiterated his questions to Lewis Stuy-
vesant Chanler, the Democratic nominee FOR
Governor. regarding Mr.. Chambers stand on
racetrack gambling and the Public Service Com
mission.
The Governor started out from the Hotel
Astor at 80 sharp last night with a convoy Of
two automobiles bearing newspaper men. The
first stop was what the theatrical profession
call "a long jump" being at 10th HaI, In Am
sterdam avenue.> near 150th street. There the
crowd was so great that the police. under the
direction Of Captain Kreusher kept everybody
in the Governors party out except the Governor
himself and a bodyguard of two
The greeting at 10th Hall was such that the
Governor was obliged to raise his hand several
times in order that he might be heard; finally
the crowd wound up with three cheers and set
tied down TO listen
The applause so great at times that the
Governor was obliged TO remind his audience
that he running by schedule" and that he
must keep within his time limit.
Amid a storm Of applause Mr.. Hughes ended
his speech by saying that he was again u candi-

SAYS EDkUKDS ACT
APPLIES TO HAWAII
Judge Dole Holds Law
Should Be Enforced
In Hawaii

Judge Dole this morning overrul-
cd the demurrer interposed by Attor-
ney Lightfoot on behalf or lie Sa
Kee, alias Sha Kee, who was indict-
ed for violation of the EGmunds Act.
Lightfoo1s chief contention was that
the Edmunds Act does not apply to
Hawaii being intended merely for
Territories where Mormonism is
recognized institution"
In his decision, Judge Dole says:
The second ground is that the law
providing for the punishment of per-
sons guilty of adultery applies only
to those Territories where Mormon
ism is recognized as one of. the legiti-
mate institutions of the TERRITORY.
This point is untenable. Although
the act OF 1862 was aimed at the
practice of polygamy in the Terrific
ries, and other places over which the
United States has exclusive jurisdic-
ton. and with certain acts of the
Legislature of Utah favoring polyg-
amy, and was amended by the act OF
1882, also aimed at polygamy In the
Territories and other places over
which the United States has exclu-
sive jurisdiction, yet the act of 1887,
which amends the act OF 1882, is a
more comprehensive statute contain
ing enactments applicable to the
Territory of Utah and the "so-called
Statute of Deseret," and general en-
actments appertaining to the Terri
tories of the United States. 1t deals
not only with polygamy but also with
Cognate offenses OF adultery, forni-
cation and incest. The act of 1887
departs from the special object of
the two preceding acts, and clearly
adds to their scope, intending by its
words to deal with the subject of
marriage more broadly by furnishing
all Uffenses inconsistent with the
sanctity of the marriage relation.
"All possible effect must be given to
every clause, section and word of the
state" United States VS.. Fisher, l09
| U. S. 143, 145. By the act of 1887
adultery is made crime against the
United States and In the Territories
and other places over which the
United States has exclusive jurisdic-
ton.
The third point of the demurrer is
that the court has no jurisdiction for
the reason that the crime of adult
cry is punishable under the laws of
the Territory of Hawaii. There
doesn't seem to be any precedent for
this proposition, nor has any case
been cited supporting It. Both the
United States and the Territory of
Hawaii have their pure-food law, for
instance. not to speak OF other laws
on identical subjects.
