WHY HUGHES is NEEDED IN
THIS TREMENDOUS CRISIS.

Against Mr.. Wilson's combina-
ton Of grace in elocution with
futility in action; against his
record of words unbacked by
deeds or betrayed by deeds, we
set Mr.. Hughes rugged and un-
compromising straightforward
ness of character and action in
every office he has held. We put
the man who thinks and speaks
directly, and whose words have
always been made good, against
the man whose adroit and facile
elocution Is used to conceal his
plans or his want Of plans. The
next four years may we'll be
years Of tremendous national
strain. Which Of the two men
do you, the American people,
wish at the helm during those
four years; the man who has
been actually tried and found
wanting, or the man whose
whole career in public Office is
guarantee Of his power and
good faith? But one answer is
possible; and it must be given by
the American people throughout
the United States.-From speech
of Col. Theodore Roosevelt, de-
livered at Lewiston, Maine, in
behalf of Charles e. Hughes.

side.-Albany Journal.

II you are going to have the basis
for prosperity in this country; if you
are going to protect the American
wage scale; if you are going to have
American enterprise able to meet the
competition which will follow the end

honestly devised, wisely framed tariff
law to protect American industry.

Telling Tariff Points

Let these telling points on tariff
and protection In the speech by
Charles Evans Hughes, the Republi-
can candidate for President, delivered
in the Salt Lake Tabernacle, be fixed
permanently in your mind and
memory during the remainder of the
campaign:
We are DESTROYS Of having strong
and sure the foundations Of our ma
tional greatness in this pursuit Of
competition among the nations which
is sure to follow the cessation OF
the present struggle.
presume that the Republican party
as the national party, according to
the constitution Of the United States,
within the national sphere, shall pro-
coed wherever it is practicable, to
build up and foster and encourage
American enterprise, and open the
doors wide for honest American
achievement.
Then came the Underwood tari6
bill itself. What was the result? En-
terprise halted and there was con.
traction of trade throughout the land,
and America, instead Of going ahead,
stopped. That is what happened.
Three hundred thousand were unem-
ployed in the City Of New York.
There was not a city in this land
where the jobless man anxious and
able to work did not walk the street.
They were fed by our charitable or
CARNATIONS, which were taxed to the
utmost limit to provide for. those for
whom American enterprise could no
longer make provision. 1t was sad
spectacle. Americans have not for
gotten it. It is not forgotten here
or anywhere. 1t cannot be forgotten.
It is too recent.

Pan-American Concord.

We recognize now as we have al
ways recognized, a definite and com
mon interest between the United
States and the other peoples and re-
publics Of the Western Hemisphere in
all matters OF national independence
and free political development We
favor the establishment and mainten-
ance Of the closest relations of amity
and mutual helpfulness between the
United States and the other republics
Of the American continents for the
support of peace and the promotion of
common prosperity.
To that end we favor all measures
which may be necessary to facilitate
intimate intercourse and promote COM
merce between the United States and
her neighbors to the south of US and
such international understandings as
may be practicable and suitable TO ac-
comphsh these ends.
We commend the action of the Dem
ocratic Administration in holding the

ing the international High Commission
which represented the United States

TARIFF REFORM LEAGUE
CONES OUT FOR WILSON
Will Indorse Democratic Plat.
form on Record in Congress.

The American Tariff Reform League
will indorse the 1916 Democratic party
platform in a revenue and pro-indus-
trial preparedness sense, and will sup
port Wilson and Marshall for reelec.
ton on the Democrats tariff reform
record in the last Congress.
Isaac Lawrence, president of the
league, made this announcement yes
terday. He said this commitment Of
the body was above politics. and placed
patriotic considerations first.
The Senate, according TO Mr. Law
renee, will in all probability remain
anti-protective tariff until the Con-
gressional elections of 1918. The
league believes the tariff reformers of
the country, as patriots, regardless Of
party, will reflect Wilson and Marshall
by majority vote Of the total Presi-
Dental vote this year. 1t is rallying to
the cry Of Peace, Prosperity and Pre-
paredness."

ADAMSON AND WILLIAMS
FAR AS POLES APART
Can't Agree Regarding Fire
Alarm and Light Standards.

A week ago the Mayor told Commits
sioner Adamson Of the Fire Depart
ment. and Commissioner Williams, Of
the Department Of Water, Gas and
Electricity, to bury their differences
on the proposed combination pole sys-
TEN. whereby the electric lights and the
fire alarm boxes would occupy a single
pole instead Of two. and come back TO
the meeting Of the Board Of Estimate
yesterday prepared to make a mutual
report. They appeared yesterday be-
fore the board and were as far apart
as ever on the feasibility Of the propo-
sition.
Commissioner Adamson maintained
that il would delay the installation
Of the ew fire alarm system, for
which the Board of Estimate appro-
priated the funds some time ago, and
that meanwhile the present dilapi-
dated system might break down, caus-
ing a great fire calamity. He was for
the single pole for the fire alarm
system. Commissioner Williams IA
vored the combination pole system.
The Board of Estimate leaned to-
ward the Williams idea. The Mayor
told the two commissioners 20 reopen
their conferences.
Commissioner Adamson and his en-
gineers had gone ahead under the ap-
preparation Of the Board Of Estimate
for the new fire alarm system, and
planned for separate poles for the
fire boxes

International Relations.

The Democratic Administration has
throughout the present war scrupulous-
~ and successfully held to the old
paths Of neutrality and of the peaceful
pursuit of the legitimate objects OF our
national life which statesmen Of all
parties and creeds have prescribed for
themselves in America since the begin
ming of orr history But the circum-
stances of the last two years have re-
vealed necessities Of international ac-
tion which no former generation can
have foreseen. We hold that II IS the
duty of the United States to use its
power not only TO make itself safe at
home, but also 10 make secure its Just
interests throughout the world, and,
both for this end and in the interest
of humanity. TO assist the world IN Sc
curing settled peace and justice.
We believe that every people has the
right TO choose the sovereignty under
which il shall live; that the small states
Of the world have a right 10 enjoy
from other nations the same respect for
their sovereignty and for their terri
torial integrity that great and powerful
nations expect and insist upon, and that
the world has a right 70 be free from
every disturbance OF ITS peace that has
its origin in aggression or disregard OF
the rights of peoples and nations; and
we believe that the time has come when
it is the duty of the United States TO
ioir with the other nations Of the world
in any feasible association that will
effectively serve these principles, 10
maintain inviolate the complete secur-
ity Of the highway of the seas for the
common and unhindered use of all ma
tions.
The present Administration has con-
sistently sought 70 act upon and real
ize in its conduct of the foreign af-
fairs Of the nation the principle that
should be the object Of any association
of the nations formed TO secure the
peace of the world and the mainte-
nance of national and individual
rights. 1t has followed the highest
American traditions. II has preferred
respect for the fundamental rights Of
smaller states, even 10 property inter-
ests, and has secured the friendship
of the people of these states for the
United States by refusing to make a
more material interest an excuse for
the assertion Of our superior power
against the dignity Of their sovereign
independence.
II has regarded the lives of its citi-
zens and the claims of humanity as of
greater moment than material rights,
and peace as the best basis for the
Just settlement of commercial claims.
II has made the honor and ideals of
the United States its standard alike
in negotiation and action.

After Settling Up His Central
American Land Holdings He

General Jose Santos Zelaya, exiled

rived in New York from Spain, In spite
Of having been shipped back to BARGE
Iona two years ago as Undesirable" on
account of killing two young American
soldiers Of fortune toward the end of
his dictatorship.
The general arrived unheralded last
Saturday. and was discovered yesterday
in his suite in the Hotel Aberdeen, a
peaceful and jovial tyrant, courteous as
a Spanish hida,so, and obviously anx-
ious to bury his romantic and hazard
Gus past, If the public will let him.
Loneliness has driven the ex-dictator to
the city which rejected him two years
ago. He has compatriots here, and,
above all, hopes to persuade the Near
aguan government to allow him TO re-
turn and live during his old age with
his family of eight children, whom he
has not seen since the night he fled
from Corinto on Mexican gunboat.

Of my country and do not want to know
about them, will be grateful to him.

General Zelaya's efforts to show that
he had done forever with the vanities
of this world and desired only to die in

glances that show that he is as much
alive as in the years when he was a

ment. Delieacy forbade questions about
the family business" for when he es-
capped there were rumors Of a looted
treasury in Bluefeds and sbOO,OOO
stored away in New York banks. Cen
eral Zelaya spoke vaguely, however,
about large Central American land
holdings which need his attention IN
New York.
The general said the American Con
sui in Barcelona had examined his
private papers and could testify that
he had had no connection with politics
since his exile. There was not the
least danger, he thought, OF being
troubled by the government TINS time.
The United States could not be 80 rude
as to interfere again with retired
dictator who was anxious only TO see
his eight children.
Puts Hope in Nicaragua Election.
After his business is completed in
New York General Zelaya Will get as
near his native land as he can, near
enough perhaps TO have some OF ms
children visit him.
"Will IL be Costa Rica? ?" he was asked:
Both the general and his friend
shrugged lNtlI oHOntutASs ~ htNy
Costa Rica." he said. The idea seemed
to strike him as excellent. Perhaps 1t
will be-" he declared.
Admitting it would be impossible to
return 10 Nicaragua under the present
administration, the general hopes that
elections 10 be held there next month
will change the hostility toward him
into a welcome.
The ex-"tyrant" Of Central America
was far more anxious 10 talk about
ia guerra" and about Mexico than
about himself. lie reported that Spain
was inclined to be pro-German, par
ticularly the military party, and that
prominent Spaniards were anxious to
have the United States pacify Mexico
by Intervention or any other way as
long as it could be done quickly. Send
bread bullets across the border instead
of lead" he said, and there would be
an end 10 trouble. When asked If he
knew any of the Mexican revolutionists
personally the general laughed heartily.
81 do not know that kind Of people at
ALL" he said.
