has steadfastly maintained ms posltloh

to such a Progressive leader as Ches-

DESPITE Ills pi1y SASoA
Hughes is in splendid f1ghtlng form
today.
He has had big audiences every
where and no matter how tired, ne
has been stimulated by these audiences
into making 'punchy' speeches al
along the line even tho these speeches
have been largely identical.
Parade and Big Meeting in Denver.
1t is rather remarkable that a pub
lie speaker, who for six years has
kept his voice bottled up, has managed
to bring it back SO that at not single
place which he has visited so far has
the audience had any difficulty in un-
Outstanding him.
Dr.. Ditman, who has accompanied
the governor on his trip and has done
heroic work taking the huskiness on
of the nominees voice and otherwise
keeping him in fine physical fettle, an
nounced today he would let the COVER
nor take care of himself from Kansas
CITY on eastward, believing he did no
need any further throat spraying. Mrs
Hughes will then have full charge o
the nominee.
Today Hughes was hustled to maxi
a tariff speech at Greeley, en- rout,
from Cheyenne to Denver. He wa
due to arrive at Denver shortly befor
noon and to parade the streets to tn
hotel. He was scheduled for brie
talk at a luncheon of the Mile Higl
club, a public reception at the Brow
Palace hotel, and a night meeting ant
a big speech at the Auditorium.
At IL O'Clock he was due to leav
for Estes park for his rest.
