HUGHES Gets BIC welcome
ON TRIP THROUGH COLORADO

GREELEY. Col. Aug. 2s.-Charlss
Evans Hughes. Republican nominee
for President. was formally welcomed
to Colorado here Saturday by COM
mittee OF Republicans headed by DR..
Hubert Work. of Pueblo, national
committeeman.
Conferences with party leaders were
followed by a public reception at 9
o'clock, after which Mr.. Hughes deliv'
cred 10-minute address in the City
Park here. in which he summarized
his chief attacks on the administra-
ton and his own policies as follows:
Our opponents said they would re-
duce the cost Of living. They have
not done it,
"They said they would stand for
the merit system in government, but
they have shamelessly betrayed it.
"They said they we're for the main
tenance OF the constitutional rights
Of American citizens throughout the
world.
They have left our citizens to be
murdered and their property destroy
ed right here in Mexico, close to oui
boundary.
They did say they were op.
posed to a tariff for protection. They
carried it out with the result that be-
fore the European war broke out un-
employed men we're walking the
streets Of our cities, asking for work
and having to be fed by countless
charitable organizations.
Il want to see efficiency in govern.
ment, efficiency in business, efficiency
in the execution of all laws, relatinl
to governmental activity. I desire t
see a contented people, living undei
just laws. as Acknowledgment, fell

tive enterprise. That is what free in

eERMANrs NAVAL LOSSES.

From the New York Tribune.
A statement has been given out by
the German admiralty comparing TIE
losses Of the German navy with
those Of the navies opposed to II.
According to this estimate the British
and French have lost seventy-two
battleships and cruisers and the Ger
mans only twenty Reckoning
in tonnage, the losses OF the Allies
are said to he almost eight times
as great as the German losses. me
figures as quoted are incomprehensi-
bic. however for the total German
tonnage is given as 626S7, which Is
considerably less than the combined
tonnage OF. say the Lutzow Butcher,
Scharnhorst and Gneisenau, to name
but four of the twenty-five vessels
admitted lost by the Germans them
selves. II is evident, then, that the
admiralty's statement has not been
correctly reported in the dispatches.
The point is Of small importance
however. There is not the slightest
doubt but the British losses alone
are vastly in excess OF the German
losses: that Is the price that must
he maid for command OF the sea. For
two wears the traffic of the Germans
AT sea has been virtually suspended
and only on rare occasions has a
fleet or squadron OF war vessels
dared TO venture beyond the protec'
ton Of the mine fields near the Ger
man coast. The French and British
fleets. on the other hand have been
free TO 90 where they pleased; COM
merce. though hampered by sub
marine attacks. Is uninterrupted, and
millions OF troops have been trans
ported to several parts of the world
For this freedom It is inevitable thai
a price should be paid and the price
/ is small considering the utter help
lessness Of Germany at sea.
Evidently the statement given GU
al Berlin Is intended to comfort anC
reassure the German people. II IS
indeed. the only comfort that can b
found in the naval situation ana
is not reassuring.

Out of the PubIic's Pockets
(From the New York Tribune)

President Wilson's Manoeuvres are
the chief obstacle. at present. to a
sane settlement Of the railroad contro-
versy. He seems to think he is or
dained TO speak for the public in the
sense of declaring what it will or will
not do, instead Of safeguarding the
public's interests against undue en-
croachment by the brOtherhOods or
the officials OF the railroads. First
he promised the unionists that the
public would support their demands
for a basic eight-hour day" without
arbitration of all the allied questions.
Now he tells the executives that they
would be perfectly safe in granting
the "eight-hour day" as he advised,
because the public will surely support
their claim for higher freight rates
with which to pay the 100000, 600
extra cost incurred by granting the
mems demands
In both assumptions the President
is wrong. The union leaders seem to
believe him. The railroad eXecu-
tives, having a wider knowledge OF
political conditions and OF economics,
are skepucal, and well they may be.
The public has manifested, in a food
or letters and kilograms TO the White
House, that II does not believe the
President is right in urging surren-
der to the men until a fair and thor
ough investigation Of hours OF labor
and wages has proved the merit Of
their claims. A goodly portion Of the
public has told the railroad executives
that il will object vehemently to pay
ing increased freight rates for ship
ments. in order to give increased
wages TO the highest-paid railroad
workers. until fair and thorough in
vestigation has proved they deserve
increases.
What the President proposes, in
plain language. is to extract from the
pockets of the public a huge sum OF
money and put il into the pockets Of
the members OF the big Four" To
that the public objects, and has a

TRUE wIsONIAN INCONSISTENCY.

- forced the resignation OF f. Dana Durand Director

There you have an example Of Inconsistency true to
the Wilson type II Durand deemed inefficient how
could Redhed honoraby recommend him for the posi-
ton he now holds? II he we're about TO put him out.
why deny that he forced him to resign? As matter
OF fact a letter Of recommendation from Redheld in
favor of Durand would be a masterpiece Of humor
There has not been a day since Redheld became

right to object, until there is proof
on the records Of some impartial tri-
bunal that such transfer would not be
selfish and arbitrary, unjust 20 the
vastly larger body Of railway en-
ployes who would get none of the
money, unjust to the stockholders OF
the railroads, unjust to the business
men and plain common citizens Of the

The railroad executives are right in

port of an increased rate campaign

CATION by an official body, has made
all the facts in the present situation

been foolish in believing the Presi-
dent could speak, under circum-
stances such as these, for an undi-
vided public What the public is
thinking now has been admirably
stated by the Chamber of Commerce
Of the United States of America in a
letter to the President.
1.-THE seriousness of the situation. as
that the public is informed of it,
helplessness to protect itself against
certain demands, and therefore such
demands must be acceded to by it
We are not in a position to say
whether the demands are equitable
and just or not Our position is that
the facts ought to be investigated. and
if the demands are just they ought
TO be granted Immediately upon the
/ ascertainment Of the facts on theiI
merits, and not because either party
is so powerful that it can dictate It's
terms to the public. We feel that
there is no hope whatever of a per
manent settlement Of this question
short Of the method proposed"
II is not yet too late for the .Presi.
dent to take an impartial. sound
course in this vast issue by using his
influence, first for investigation tC

those ascertained facts.
