HEAR HUGHES IN RAIN.
Crowd Gathered at Topeka to Greet the
Republican Candidate.

Topeka, kans., Sept. 2.-Charles E
Hughes, speaking at the capitol grounds
to a crowd that stood through a shower
to listen, yesterday declared that the
protection for which he stood was more
than protection in a commercial sense to
American business, but embraced protec-
tion of American rights on land and sea,
of national peace, of American industry
and against inefficiency in government,
II stand for protection in comprehen-
sive sense" Mr.. Hughes said Il do not
speak either of protection or prepared
ness in a narrow and limited way | use
the word to embrace all that is needed to
foster and promote American enterprise
and to better our conditions"
Mr.. Hughes repeated the charges made
at Saline earlier, that the present ad-
ministration had been more extravagant
than any other in the history of the
country.
"Only the other day Democratic sen
ator said that $20,0o0,0oo should have
been saved from the rivers and harbors
bill this year" Mr. Hughes said. The
Philippine policy was
as "the scandal of our
scuttling out of the Philippines"

MCLAUGHLIN OUT OF 1T.
Tennis "Comet" Failed to Defeat Church
in Championship.

Forest Hill N. Y, Sept. 2.--The de-
feat of Maurice E. Mclaughlin, the idol
of American lawn tennis, at he hands
of George NJ. Church, was the outstand-
| ing feature of the fourth round OF the
national singles championship tourna-
ment on the courts of the West Side
club here yesterday. The elimination of
the Californian comet in his widely her
aided attempt to come back after two
years of defeat, left but three western
exponents in the field for the 1915 title
as against four eastern stars and one
southern expert.
George NJ. Church is the hope of the
eastern contingent while the West is
pinning its faith on the ability of Will
liam NJ. Johnston, victor a year ago, al
though it is conceded that of the re-
naming eight players in the tourna-
ment K. Norris Williams, I'd, of Philadl-
phia and Clarence J. Griffin of San Fran
cisco, both have a chance to come
through and capture the highest honors
of American tennis for the present sea
son.

cation of the freight embargo established

REP. GREENE OPPOSED
S-HR. BILLS PASSAGE
Vermont Congressman Lifted His Voice
in Protest Although He Is in Sym
pathy with the Men.

Washington, D. c., Sept. 2.-Represen.
tative Frank L. Greene during the gen
eral debate in the House yesterday after.
noon in opposition to the passage of the
Adamson eight-hour bill made vigorous
speech. He said in part:
Il am opposed to the passage of this
legislation at this time. If we were to
have an opportunity to go into the mer-
its of the case, if we were to have an op-
portunity to exercise something like the
same judicial and magisterial duty to-
ward the parties to the controversy that
we enloin upon and demand from courts
that this Congress creates, then it might
not be unlikely that testimony and evi-
dence so submitted would convince me
that there was some truth and justice on
the side of the men who demand an
eight hour day.
1--WE should keep in mind, however.
throughout all this discussion-as has
been several times intimated here-that
this is not a demand for an eight hour
day which shall limit the hours of phvsi-
cal labor to eight hours a day, but it is
demand for an eight-hour basic pay
day, consequently placing it on an alto
gether different footing. However that
may be, it seems to me that the only
/ thing that presents itself here to us to-
day. as men entrusted with the respon-
sibility OF government and as men upon
whose shoulders for the time being fhow-
ever unworthy individually we may bel.
is this: When any man. or set of men.

to stand up in the United States and saw
that the government of the United States

fronts us here in this issue. and it rises
