The daily Gate City and constitution-Democrat. (Keokuk, Iowa) 1916-1922, 1916-07-13
HUGHES A GREAT DIPLOMAT.

As time reels on, one gradually picks up in
formation on the character and capacity Of
Charles Evans Hughes, information that was
denied through the long Arctic night of the
Great Hughes Silence One begins to get ac-
quainted with the man, and it is found, just as
was suspected, that his public record as COVER
nor Of New York is not sufficient guide to
the qualities Of the Hughes of today. In the
old days Mr.. Hughes was anything but a diplo-
mat. He was frank he was blunt. But now,
see the change! Fellow citizens, we have with
us today Mr.. Hughes, one of the foremost
diplomats in the world.
It all came about in this way: Delegations
of woman suffragists and anti -suffragists were
to visit the republican presidential nominee,
with their customary purpose of trying to
bludgeon or wheedle kind word from men
higher up. First, the suffragist squad was adj
mitted to the presence. It came back smiling,
Iproclaiming Mr.. Hughes assurance more sat
isfactory than any others we have received
heretofore Then entered the anti -emissaries
and they, too, smiled afterward. Their re-
ception, they said, had been 'eminently salts
factory and Mr.. Hughes was "indeed the man
of the hour. +"
Thus far Charles Evans Hughes is the only
man in this country who has been able to strad-
die the suffrage question without having leg
pulled on either side. He surely is a great
diplomat.
