mo More n than haf century ago nearly
loved ones and peaceful firesides, and Of
fered their lives in the cause of Liberty
the government of their country.
To them, this nation owes debt of
gratitude which it may never repay. To
for those dependent upon them is a small
recompense- To recount their deeds, to
cur own hearts the spirit of patriotism
which moved them, is the highest tribute
we can offer and the most certain way to
insure the perpetuity of the cause they
served:
1t is especially needful In this time of
sore Distress t that the a. American F people
and keep alive an active love of country,
to the end that false pride, greed and love
of power for powers sake may not lead US
into the wickedness and folly that has
brought such unspeakable horror upon our
sister nations.
Let us then on the day set apart as
memorial to our dead defenders cease from
our usual occupations and meet together

of Peace that this patriotic people may be
given grace to do its full part In fastening
the day when shall be no more.

claim TUESDAY, MAY 30, 1916,

patriotic ceremonies, and especially do 1
ask that at II O'Clock noon all flags be

Sugar Mistake

Mr.. Hughes cited the result of the
tariff on sugar by the Underwood act
as an illustration of a policy to which
he was opposed.
why should there have been an at
tempt to cripple and destroy the SUI
gar industry in this country" he
said. WAS there any reason for it.?
Was there any craftsmanship in it?
Was it called for by the country?
No.
Our friends discovered their mis-
take after a while, but we desire to
be represented by those who have
foresight and not simply hindsight.
America must be sound and hon.
est in it's public life, but it must be
businesslike, it must direct, it must
be patriotic with America first and
America efficient.
MY friends of California, do not
misunderstood me. There is not go
ing to be any private grip on any pub
lie privilege for any corporate inter-
est or combination Of interests at the
expense of the interests of the people
of the United States if 1 can prevent
it."
Mr.. Hughes spoke of the need Of
industrial cooperation"
1.-The man who looks upon his laborers
simply as mere economic units has not
caught the vision of the 10th century.
he said. What we need in this country
is not demagoguery nor standpatism. bur
the sense Of a deep desire to benefit our
fellowman by working together to that
end, according to the spirit Of our lnst1-
tutions.'
1--WE do not wish to watt" Mr.. Hughes
continued, until an important industry is
crippled and in danger Of destruction.
1.-THE good people Of Louisiana protested
in vain. They went to their own admin
istration in vain. They presented facts
only to be disregarded.
Now, protest against any action aim
ed at the Gripping Of American enter
prise Why should American industries
go out of business in order that we may
buy goods abroad? That is not sound
American policy"
The nominee declared he favored "the
protection of the generations Of the fu-
ture."
II believe in preventing children from
being drawn too early into the hardships
of industrial life,'' he said.
Mr.. Hughes again assailed the admins
tration for it's Mexican policy. and de-
clared for the protection of American
rights abroad.
IT believe this nation should have the
strength that proper preparedness re-
quires in order that we may not stand IN
danger of being misunderstood as to our
ability to maintain our just rights" ne
said.
Threat on Life
The Long Beach police made public to-
day a letter said to have been received
by the secretary of Charles E. Hughes
yesterday in which the life Of the Repub-
lcan candidate for the presidency Is
threatened. According to the postmark,
the letter was mailed in Los Angeles late
Saturday. 1t reads:
I'VE warned you before you left the
supreme bench that you never would sit

you Watch out at Santa Ana
The letter is unsigned. Mr.. Hughes is
scheduled to pass through Santa Ana on
his way from San Diego to Los Angeles.

Ultimatum from Teutons Hinted in Reports on

The opening Of the Allied offensive
at Saloniki has been the signal for
reports that Rumania is at
last about to throw in her lot with the
Entente. These reports are more cir
than ever before and the
comments of the German press indicate
that they are far from being devoid Of
foundation. One Berlin newspaper goes
so far as to declare that Rumania has
already joined the Allies and that plans
are being laid for the march Of a Rus

Republicans Of Augusta opened Mon
day evening one Of the greatest cam
