CANDIDATE HUGHES "SWAT THE FLY" POLICY
STIRS WRATH OF TEDDY ROOSEVELT

STlRS WRATH OF ]
BY gibson GARDNER
New York, Sept. 6.-An the pro-
gresiVes, from Roosevelt down, are
disappointed with Hughes perform
ance in the west. Nothing, they
think, could be worse!
Instead of talking "Americanism"
Hughes has talked civil service re-
form. Instead of denouncing the
German-American alliance, as, they
expected he would, he has denounced
Extravaganza"
Roosevelt is all but ready to throw
up his hands and let Hughes and his
managers 60 the rest of the way
alone. Roosevelt feels-though he
may not admit it publicly - that he
has been tricked He probably will
not say so openly, but he is not good
at hiding his feelings, and find
that RooseVeIt's disappointment in
Hughes is an open secret at both
party headquarters here.
Roosevelt feels that he did not step
aside for Hughes IN order that the
ex-justice might inaugUrate a swat
the-fy'' campaign. He stepped aside
because Hughes agreed to accept the
issue Roosevelt had made for him
the issue of Americanism-an be
cause Roosevelt believed a candidate
standing for this issue could defeat
Wilson. He considered the defeat of
Wilson a patriotic duty.
Now the Roosevelt following feel
that their sacrifice has been in vain
and that Wilson probably will be re-
elected anyhow.
Naturally, Roosevelt is bitterly
disappointed. He took the Hughes
statement, made after the Repubi-
can nomination, at its face value.
The repetition of it in a miIder form
in Hughes letter Of acceptance he
made the most of, but when Hughes
had travelled from New York to San
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1916-09-06

his OlQ GuarQ packing naQ accepted
the issue in the nominal and tech
nical manner only, and had not in
tended to carry out its spirit.
So Roosevelt decided to show
Hughes and the Republican cam
paign managers what he thinks a
candidate ought to talk about. He
thereupon sat down and wrote his
Maine speech, which was delivered in
Lewiston, Aug. 81, in which he did
not mention the DUrand case or the
appointment of E. Lester Jones, or
talk about Myron T. Herrick and the
embassy at Paris. d.
Instead, he repeated all the most
savage things he had ever side about
hyphenates and the foreign policy of
Pres. Wilson, specifically mentioning
the German-American alliance by
name, the Lusitania affair, the kill
ing of Edith CaveIl, the invasion of
Belgium and the murders" in Mex
leo.
The speech contains 10000 words
ALI words on subjects not alluded
to by Charles E. Hughes on his west
6rn CTlp.
The success of Hughes depends on
the extent to which he gets the
Roosevelt following. Roosevelt could
have beaten Hughes by accepting
the Progressive nomination. He
could beat him now by denouncing
Hughes and his following as un-
worthy of confidence. 1t is not like
Iy Roosevelt will do this; having
made his decision between Wilson
and Hughes he will probably stand
by it.
But his standing by it does not all
ter the fact as to his disappointment
and the disappointment of his follow
ing.
Nothing can hide the fact that
Hughes has chosen to steer clear Of
giving offense to the GeTman-Amer-
leans and is determined to make a.

The foregoing words describing the
