UNITED STATES HONOR.
Hughes Criticism of Foreign Policy
Approved In West.
cortland, Ore, Telegram.)

portland. Ore, T%elegram.)
The Republican party has selected
q standard-bearer whose utterances
from day to day Justify the people
who chose him. Not only does he
bring before the country the short
comings of the Administration that
owes its existence to a divided Re-
publicanism, but his criticism Is every
where constructive.
He tells what must be done and
will be done by the party he repre-
sents to prevent wastefulness and
extravaganza in the governmental
expenditures and to put a stop to the
vacillating policy hat has caused
other nations to believe that the
United States has no intention of
backing up its demands made in the
interests of justice and humanity.
Most vulnerable of oil points in the
Democratic armor is its foreign pol
icy. Primarily this is because of the
spells system by which men trained
in the consular and diplomatic serv-
ice through long years, have been
displaced to make room for poll
ticians and friends of politicians,
whose sole claim to preferment was
their service to the Democratic party.
IF am elected president of the
United States,' said Mr.. Hughes last
night, Il propose that every man 1
put in charge of an important depart
ment shall be a man eminently fit to dis
charge the duties of that department"
The d%enuding Of the diplomatic serv-
ice of men of experience in order
to supply political jobs, as has been
done by Mr.. Wilson,, or with his con-
sent, Mr.. Hughes denounces as "a
capital DEMONSTRATING In the good
name of the United States and dam
aging its honor" Nobody" he adds,
has a right to pay political debts
with the good name and honor of the
United States"
Which is clear proof that MI.
Hughes has not been unmindful of
the high principles of government
which must be maintained in order
that this republic shall maintain it's
place as a shining example to all ma
tons.

THE lNCONsiDERATE BEHAVIOR
OF A CANDIDATE.

Why does Mr.. Hughes insist upon
talking about that O~ld-fashioned, not
to say Ubiquitous" doctrine, the pro-
tective tariff? For nearly the whole
period of its Industrial existence, the
United States struggled along under
protection. The Democratic party in
1913 came to the relief of an afflicted
and burdened people.
The Republican Administration (not
on account of the tariff, 1t is true)
was overthrown. Before taking over
the reins of government, and for many
years prior to that time, countless
Democratic statesmen had vainly tried
to persuade the American people hat
the protective tariff was an iniquity,
a veritable contrivance of devils. 1t
fostered the trusts, and it was an ele-
vator of prices even to the thirty-sev-
enth story and the tower. They prom
ised relief. The poor should be 40
longer oppressed the cost of living
should be reduced-must be, as the
sure result of a tariff for
protective only In spots, such as the
Louisiana sugar mills and the Carolina
cotton factories.
Doesn't Mr.. Hughes know what the
Administration did which he is now
attacking? He ought to know. The
Democrats, under the leadership of
Mr.. Wilson and Mr.. Underwood, re-
pealed that iniquity and abomination,
the Payne-Aldrich tariff law-that fos-
for mnfhor nf trusts ond hiUh nriOoc--
and enacted in its place the present
law. Mr.. Hughes knows, of course,
as every head of a family in America
knows, that the trusts have not yet
been dissolved and that the cost of
living is higher han ever,-that the
price of everything has reached an I'M
heard-of height-but what of it?
What of it, indeed? While 1t is
true that a protective tariff never fail
ed. under any circumstances, to pro-
tect American industry and American
labor, it is to be considered that the
war in Europe has upset the plans of
the present low-tariff administration
considerably. Also it forms an excel
lent foundation for. an alibi. 1t is a
very unusual condition.
Now, the obvious thing for Mr..
Hughes to do is to give the Demo-
Gratis a chance to get their tariff on
t tne doctor l'@s
won't come, of course, until the war
Is over-according to the Democratic
version. In other words the tariff
~for-revenue doctrine doesn't fit the
conditions; the conditions must be
made to fit the tariff. So why this
disturbance, Mr.. Hughes?
Besides, when you discuss a little
thing like the tariff, do you not know
that Son-in-Law McAdoo and the other
statesmen of the Democratic family
are likely to repeat their accusation
that you are "pettifogging"f-Charles-
ton, w. Va, Hail.

Cassion took them as though in a

burning with malignant rage. I doubt

seemed to grasp vaguely the face Of

Baugis, see here; these damned ours
of La Sale would play a trick On me.

The dragon took it, and smoothed

grave, as his eyes searched the printed
lines.

said soberly, looking about at the faces
