many COME MILES TO
HEAR HUGHES SPEAK
Says Democrats Have Be-
trayed Principles and
Broken Promises
By Perry Arnold

(United Press staff corrcspondeptl
Newark, n. Y, Oct. 2s.-.1s.i We shall
have no peace nor security uiless. we
maintain our self respect Nominee
Hughes told an audience of 800, packed
in the opera house here today.
His hearers had come miles from the
surrounding country and had waited an
hour or more in the theatre.
The republican candidate reiterated
his previous views on Americanism, the
tariff ana oeratic.sprosperity argu-
ments His Voice was very frayed. :.
Sometime, he said, "tlfc Ameri,
can community and particularly those
who are interested in agriculture will
awake to the necessity of business
like administration so that in expan.
ding activities of government we shall
not be overwhelmed by the burden OF
taxation. There is no prosperity for
the United States if we go about our
great international business in haphaz-
ard fashion. y.
The democrats, Hughes declared
have betrayed the principle of the merit
system and their performances have
not matched up with their promises
They promised to reduce the cost of liv'
ing; but on the contrary inaugurated a
policy greatly reducing the chances of
making living.
The schedule of the presidential cam
paign special today carried Hughes
northward through New York. He was
due for speeches here, at Oswego, Wat
ertown and at night at Ogdensburg
Tonight he will rest in Ogdensburg, re-
naming over there until late Sunday
afternoon, when he starts for Ohio.

With the view of eliminating as many
dangerous grade crossings on highways
and railroads in Oregon as possible, a
tentative date of November % has been
set by the Oregon public service com
mission for hearing in Portland be-
tween the county courts commercial
clubs, automobile associations and the
railroads. Notice of this hearing has
not yet been sent out but the above date
is the earliest one open. 5sIt Is proposed
to remedy the dangerous gefossings of
highway and railroad byh constructing
separate grades wherever possible. This
means that the railroad will either go
over or under the highway. There has
been considerable pressure brought to
bear to remedy the present state of af-
fairs on account of the loss Of life from
accidents happening on these crossings

lean Railway commission at San Fran

which Commissioner Miller isra mem

DR.. Lytle, state veterinarian, who has
returned from Heppner, where he was
called to investigate the mortality
among sheep flocks, reports that death
was due partly to alkali and lupine pois-
Oning. The wet springs and the dry
fall, which comes about once every sew
en- years, has made everything dry and
dusty so that when the sheep were
brought down from the mountains by
the old trail, the first to come down got
the green forage and stuffed them
selves. This was also one of the causes
of the unusually heavy mortality. Al
together about 1000 head of sheep were
lost, according to Dr. Lytle's estimate.

the governor, is in Portland today.
