paign, Justice Hughes had insisted
that he would not be nominated. Not
until last night after the balloting
began did he admit to his intimates
that he might be drafted to lead his
party.
Even then he made no statement as
to what action he would take but his
silence was interpreted to mean that
he would accept, certainly if the action
of the convention were practically I'M
animous.
AS the balloting was resumed today
the Hughes household went along al
most as usual. Only the Justice had
abandoned his office on the first floor
and retired to the privacy of the third
floor, with Mrs. Hughes and their lit
tie daughter Elizabeth. The eldest
daughter Miss Catherine. had gone to
/ take lesson from a tutor, and Miss
/ Helen was in New Yor.: preparatory to
/ leaving on a Y. w. C. A. camping trip.
/ The only son, Charles e. Hughes, Jr.,
a lawyer in New York city, was at the
/ Plattsburg military camp.
There was no news from Chicago ex-
cept such as filtered in with the ar
rival of newspaper men or was tele-
phoned by local newspaper offices
Even as to that Mr.. Hughes, had let
it be known that he did not care to be
informed of the vote by states, leaving
word that his private secretary should
give him only the summary.
Before the balloting began kilograms
began to arrive, predicting the NOM
ination and extending congratulations
Mr.. Green went upstairs with the ex-
PLANTATION that the delay in taking the
vote was due to further conference
At one o'clock luncheon was an
nounced for the family.
| Then came the press dispatch an
nouncing the nomination. Mr.. Greer
| mounted the stairs three at time.
! Il simply told the justice he had beer
nominated and turned my back" h
remarked later.
| Newspapermen crowded into the jus
tees office seeking an audience. MI
Hughes came down to the reception
hall, tears in his eyes and a trembl
in his voice as he accepted the con
gratulations of the newspaper re
porters and shook their hands. He wa
| asked for a statement
Now, all know about this is Wha
you boys tell me- and / have nothn
to say now, but If you are interested
may have a statement for you at
O'Clock" he replied.

graphical records of Mr. Hughes as
having been responsible for the
Hughes beard, which has since fig
ured so largely in political carl
catures
After a short experience as an edu-
Gator Mr.. Hughes became a lawyers
clerk in the office of Stewart l.
Woodford, who later was elected lieu
tenant governor of New York, but his
health was undermined by his work
and he accepted a chair as professor
of law at Cornell University. Two
years later, however, he was back
practicing law in New York.
The public first heard of Mr.
Hughes in 1906 and 1906 1t was in
these years that he served first as
counsel for the Stevens executive
committee investigating the gas com
panies of New York, and then as
counsel for the Armstrong legislative
| committee for the investigation oil
insurance business in New York. Ir
that first investigation Mr.. Hughes
made a reputation, but it attracted
little attention outside of New Yorl
City. In the insurance investigation
however, he unearthed nation wide
scandals and the whole country fol
lowed the dramatic story finch h,
revealed.
Before his investigation was hal
finished, however, republican leader
seized upon the record which he hal
made to carry their party to victory

vention nominated him for mayor

AUTOIST BLINDED,
RUNS into DITCH
Martin SchlOss' Car Pauses at
Top Of Deep GuIch Sun
day Night.

When Z pair of powerful automobile
headlights of an approaching car viz
tuaIiy blinded Martin Schloss Sunday
night three miles from jackson on the
CaPe-Jackson road, Mr.. SchlOss drove
his car to the roadside to avert col
lisiOn, and stopped with me front
wheels of his machine Overhanging 4
deep gulch.
MIR. Schloss and his wife, who were
the only occupants Of their car, re-
ceived a severe shaking up when their
car started to go over the edge of the
washout at the roadside
The identity of the occupants of the
other car was not learned. They
stopped a short distance away after
having passed Mr.. Schloss's car and
got out to learn the character Of the
accident to the SchloSs machine.
When they mad left their car, the
machine started in some manner and
before they could regain control over
it, it crashed its way through a barbed
wire fenct at the roadside and ran
into a field. The car was not dam
aged. After the Schloss car had been
pulled back upon the road it was found
that it likewise was unchanged.
Mr.. and Mrs. Schloss, who reside in
jackson, had been in the Cape visiting
friends Sunday afternoon. After eat
ing their supper in the Cape they
started home. They were opposite the
farm of Martin Froemsdorf, on the
jackson road, when the other machine
approached them at d high rate of
speed
The police var upon binding head
lights as well as speeding and unmuf-
fed engines began in earnest yester-
day Up to late hour last night no
one had been arrested for violation OF
the ordinance passed in February. The
police contended themselves for the
first night with giving all car owners
ample warning about their headlight
DINNERS for city driving.
Motor car headlights that throw a
glaring shaft of light far out in front
will be ruled as a violation of the ordi-
nance and the drivers of such cars will
be arrested if they fail to comply with
the law after having had due notice.
Many of tht machines are equipped
with DINNERS that may be used in the
city. and for country driving the more
powerful lights may be employed.

IS DENIED By JUDGE KELLY
Prosecuting Attorney Caruihers Takes

County's suit to compel the Little
River Drainage District to bridge the
roads that it cuts through, was filed
in the Circuit Court yesterday by
Prosecuting Attorney Caruthers in the
Circuit Court yesterday and overruled
by Judge Kelly. A motion for an
appeal to the Supreme Court was
granted. The County was given until
the next term Of court to file its bill
of exceptions tc the motion of Judge
Kelly granting the Little River Drain
age District the right to cut the coun-
~ roads.
Attorneys for the Coarty 90 not
know how long time will be required
to get the case before the Supreme
bench, but il is certain that no action
can be taken that will prevent the
drainage company from cutting some
of the highways.
The suit of the Little River Drain
age District against Louis Houck and
Mary H. G. Houc2: for the recovery of
delinquent drainage taxes was con-
tinued by consent. Similar action was
taken in the drainage districts suit

Stitutional.

Warns Assessors.

That property in Wisconsin should
be assessed at actual value. no
more. no less. and that employees
of the state should refrain from po1it-
ical activity while acting for the state
were the points urged by Governor
Philip in an address to the assessors
of incomes gathered in annual confer
ence in che assembly parlors.
If learn of any employee of the
state, over whom | have any control,
becoming politically active in my be-
half, | shall ask for his dismissal: II
/ learn that any state employee is &C
tive in behalf of any other persons 1
shall also ask for his removal" was
the way the executive made himself
understood
Political activity by men in public
service Governor Philip declared is
wrong. in fact. disgraceful At the
same time, he said. he would not de-
priye any man of the right to vote
and think as he pleases.
Governor Philip urged the assess
ors to be considerate of the people
with whom they haye to deal and to
explain to them truthfully the materi-
al facts relating to assessments and
taxation
1T is Just as much of a violation
OF the law Of assessment to over-yalue
as to under.value. said the executive.

sections of the state. Men have

sources Of the state, care should be
taken in assessing growing timber so
