THE MAN BEHIND
THE SPEECH


The chief value of the Hughes
speech lies not so much in the in
formation it contains as in the pic
ture and impression it gives the
American people of the man be-
hind the speech. In the coming
election as never before, we shall
vote for men-not words. In the
three years just past we have
learned the futility of voting for
empty promises. We have had a
demonstration of the uselessness
of catchy phrases backed only by
a weak and yacillating personality.
The American voter today is read
ing between lines to find the quail
ty of the man, and when he read
the Hughes speech he was i'm
pressed with the sincerity, the dig
nifty and the stability of the
speaker.
1t was straightforward state
ment of facts and discussion of is
sues, without any of that impul-
sive extravaganza of utterance
which has 50 often led Mr.. Wilson
into humiliating retraction and re-
versals. There was no play 70
the galleries. 1t was the thot,
the feeling and the language of the
statesman, rather than of the mere
politician. 1t was gratifying and
encouraging, therefore, to those
millions of Americans who have
become tired of speeches made
merely to catch votes and who
earnestly desire as the head of this
nation a man who will represent
sound economic politics at home
and who will maintain the rights
and prestige of the United States
and its citizens in every land ano
on every sea.

against literary test for the suff-
rage which would have been dis
astrous to their political hopes.
The struggle he's been fierce and
long in that state. The Negroes
assaulted the strong works of the
opposition at every opportunity.
Here is an excellent example of
taking what belongs to you. The
Negro voters with right on their
side continued to rally until they
took what belonged to them. The
ballot box is the best arbiter in
republics. Defeat comes at times,
but hope is at large in the world,
and never more to be battened
down by wrong.
