Not Political Talk about Pros.
perity Declares Governor
Hughes in Speech.

HARTFORD, CT. Oct. 2G.-
Charles f. Hughes went into what he
termed 1.-The home stretch of the cam
paign" with the opening speech here
today of the last trip before election
day. The nominee in theater spoke
before an audience composed partly
of workers in munitlon plants nearby.
This is no time for complacency, ]"
he said. This is no time for politi-
cal talk about prosperity. 1t is time
for thought. When the men now in
the trenches of Europe are withdrawn
to follow the pursuits of peace the
abnormal stimulus OF the war will be
withdrawn and the men in this coun-
try now engaged in satisfying the
demands of Europe at war will no
longer have that demand to satisfy.
at is a new Europe we will have
TO meet, a disciplined, organized
Europe and we shuld meet it with a
new United States. And you can no
more run this country in the coming
years on the tariff principles of our
opponents than you can fly to the
moon"
Mr.. Hughes alluded also to the Adj
amson bill.

results of that poll were amazing. In
no instance have the reports shown
the percentage Of Republican loss in
this state New York; to be less than
twenty-five per cent, and In Erie coun-
y the losses to the Republicans run
as high as forty per cent Equally
large losses are shown 10 the Repub-
leans, not only in Ohio and Indiana,
but in twelve other states which the
two parties are contrasting. These fig
ures mean only one thing, the election
Of the Democratic candidate by a tre-
mendous plurality" The author Of
this prediction was Norman Il. Mack,
Democratic national chairman. and ii
was made few days before the cleo
ton Of 1908. in which Mr. Taft carried
New York by 100000. Ohio by 10000,
Indiana by over 10000 and Erie cOun-
~ by 1000. defeating Mr.. Bryan by
100000 plurality.

NEW YORK, Oct. 2G-Ed Dwyer,

"of all the absurd half baked legis-

not IN the Adamson absurdity. One
hundred miles is the minimum day S
pay and the payment for extra miles
over and above that amount costs
the railroads about one-half as much
as the regular wages. All trainmen
know how eagerly the railroads
would grasp the opportunity to return
to the old system OF wages by the
