HOPE OF HUGHES
FOR FUTURE OF
UNITED STATES
"A Great Driving Force of Patri.
otto Sentiment His
Policies at Lafayette

Lafayette, Ind. Sept. 21.-Charles
E. Hughes. addressing an audience in
the open air here today. outlined the
policies for which he stands and de-
clared that he wanted to see the Unit
ed States "a great driving force Of
patriotic sentiment" which would fur
nish the motive power for progress.
Il want American rights protected
throughout the world Mr.. Hughes
said. Il desire to see Sreat driving
force of patriotic sentiment which will
give us the motive power Of progress.
We cannot have progress unless we
have that loyalty and love for our
country which will enable US to get
UP steam to supply energy.
And therefore that we may have
that 1 say that American rights must
be protected throughout the world
with respect to American lives, prop
erty and commerce. with respect to all
nations of the world"
The nominee reiterated his declara-
ton that 1.-The pathway Of surrender
to force leads only to civil war in the
end: declared that he stood firmly
for arbitration of industrial disputes.
Il am the friend Of labor" he said.
WHO is not the friend of labor? II
man is not the friend Of labor he
isn't the friend Of America. because
we are all laborers in this country and
we have all got to go up or down to-
gether."
Mr.. Hughes went into details con-
corning his tariff view. The protec-
tive tariff, he said, would have to be
applied to enable America to meet
European competition after the war.
IF 1t is not" he said, I'VE will not
only have a repetition Of the period Of
unemployment that we had lust be-
fore the European war, but We will
have agitation and confusion and dis
aster in this country"
Mr.. Hughes defined a true Ameri-
can as follows: The man who Is a
true American is one who rejoiced in
the victories Of our institutions in CIV
ing opportunities in which everybody
shall have a share, not a selected few.
but the diffusion of prosperity among
the great mass of people in this coun-

VENIZELOS HAS
NO ANSWER FOR
REVOLT RUMORS

Athens, Sept 2o-(via London, Sept. 2l).
-Eliptharies Venizelos, the former pre-
mier and Cretan statesman, was asked
TODAY as to the truth underlying the re-
peated reports that he is going to Salon
Xxi to put himself at the head of tenn
porary revolutionary government. and he
declared to the Associated Press:

do not know what that will be, but long
continuation of the present situation
would be intolerable. Already we have
suffered all the agonies Of disastrous
war while remaining neutral.
I'VE have had 10 months Of mobilza-
ton with all the consequent hardships to
the families Of the men modified. Our
boundaries have been invaded; towns,
crops and farms have been destroyed and
all horrors enacted. We have had all
the financial burdens of war and the cost
of maintaining a useless mobilization. The
morale of the army which three years
ago was at the topmost notch. has been
DESTROYED by inaction and is now COM
pletely gone. Then we had victorious,
now we have beaten army
1--WE have over an entire army corps OF
Greeks held prisoners of war in a for
eign country and already we have paid
the Bulgars an immense war indemnity
amounting in military equipment proper
ty destroyed and loot Of Greek cities oc-
cupied. to over $4,000, 900. And finally we
are perhaps on the verge Of making now,
at last, that war which we have not
fought but have paid for in blood, tears

GEO. ". NORTON
CANDIDATE FOR
G0v'R'S. COUNCIL

Portland, Me, Sept. 21.-George w.
Norton, editor-in-chief Of the Evening
Express-Advertiser is to be a candidate
for the Governors Council from that
district. which is Cumberland county.
Mr.. Norton has been promised the sup
port of the greater number of the Cum
berland county delegation and so far
as known is to be unopposed.
Speaking of Mr.. Nortons candidacy
today the Portland Daily Press saws:
Few men in Maine are better known
than Mr.. Norton. For many years he
has been identified with the Republican
party. and always as an active worker.
AS editor of the Express. his editorials
have been of the greatest influence in
the campaign. AT the present time he is
treasurer of the Republican State COM
mittee. position he has filled with
ability.
Not only because Of his intimacy
with Maine affairs, gained through his
newspaper experience, has Mr.. Norton
became familiar with the institutions
and politics of Maine, but he has made
a careful study of them. He has an i'm
mense acquaintance throughout the
State and has always kept in touch
with all that is going on
1t is believed that he will have the
solid Cumberland delegation in his ia
vor.
The Boston Globe says:
Editor George w. Norton of the Port
land Express Advertiser. also treasurer
of the Republican State committee. is
the only seeker for the Cumberland
county seat in the Governors Council
thus far in the field. He has been ac-
tive IN the party councils and in its
numerous campaigns for quarter of
century and has never sought or held
any office of political nature.

Bells Report

General Bells report follows:
Evidence increases to show that
Villa was completely successful in his
attack Saturday upon Chihuahua and
accomplished all and more than he said
he would do. There is diversity Of
opinion and statements as to the num-
Der Of men with which he entered Chi
huahua. Some reports state he only
had about 500, while others give him
100, but all agree that he was able
to secure possession Of the penitenti-
airy. the governors palace and the fed
eral buildings and hold them for sew
eral hours and all this with a Car.
rama garrison at Chihuahua, which
some place at not less than 5000. He
liberated over 200 prisoners, secured
and carried away more than 16 au-
tomobile loads Of arms and ammuni-
ton under an escort Of deserving Car
rama troops. He left Chihuahua with
from 1000 to 1900 more men than he
entered with.
Villa retired leisurely and practi-
cally without molestation. The firing
by Trevino's artillery occurred after
Villa troops had withdrawn.
ION September IA Trevino received
a letter from Villa stating that he,
Villa. would be in Chihuahua to shake
hands with Trevino on the 18th and
he hoped that he would have a suit
able reception for him, that he might
be hungry and would like to have
something to eat.
"On the 18th Of September 1t was
reported that Villa personally entered
Chihuahua, was seen by many of his
friends and reconnoitered the city. On
the night of the 18th the Villistas ap-
preached Chihuahua from a camp he
had maintained two days within %
miles of that city. After Villa columns
had secured possession of the peniten-
tiary. the governors palace and fed
eral buildings. Villa himself went to
the governors palace into the main
balcony, displayed his face and made
short speech which In substance was
as follows:
Viva Mexico! You do not have your
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1916-09-22

Many army officers believe either
that Villa is dead or that his power is
so thoroughly broken that he could not
hope to re-establish himself. If Gen.
Bells reports prove accurate, however.
and Villa did appear in person at Chi
huahua, it is expected the fact will be
established definitely by witnesses
whose evidence could be accepted with
out question.
1t is thought unlikely that Gen
Pershing's forces will be involved in
any new fighting in Mexico even il
the most favorable account for Villa
Of the Chihuahua battle proves true
The bandits are not expected to risk
an attack upon the Americans and
the latter could not go out in pursuit
Of the raiders without new orders from
