Judge Hughes says that bust

many other things Mr.. Hughes
has been saying of late, is large

it is in the simple statement of a
palpable fact that business and
politics are being made to mix
every day in government, state
and national. But, in strict
reality, it is only by the admix-
ture of politics that the business
of government can be carried on
in a democracy. The so-called
business government is impossi-

that President Wilson has served

has made good. With words he
has held his own in every con-

and with words has kept this
country out of war-and with
honor. His state papers have

GET DOWN TO CASES

Mr.. Hughes, in his Chicago
speech, cried aloud with strident
voice for deeds, not words. :"
Filled with only words himself,
with deeds contingent entirely
upon his election, he shrieked
his definance at the candidate
of the Democratic party. The
latter is in no way appalled,.
A record of deeds during the
three and a half years of his in
cumbency, here is to President
Wilson's credit what has never
been approached by any other
administration since the govern
ment's formation. They are
deeds of worth, of value to the
country; deeds that have made,
are making and will continue to
make for the country's veal.
Not one of them does the Repub-
lican candidate refer to. He
chooses rather to be disturbed by
peccadillos, and those more of
the imagination, or fancy, than
of reality.
Deeds! Get down to cases, if
you please.
