TEN QUESTIONS FOR MIR. HUGHES.

1.-Why is wah Street for Hughes? 2.-why is the German vote for Hughes?
 3.-Why are the great financial in- terests that are still plotting to sub stitute a central bank for the Federal Reserve System for Hughes? 4.-Why are the tariff monopolists who dictated the schedules of the re- pudiated Payne-Aldrich tariff for Hughes? v4e | 5.-Why are the chief opponents of American neutrality for Hughes? 6.-Mhy are the advocates of armed intervention and war with Mexico for Hughes? "a
 7.-Why are the trusts for Hughes? 8.-Why are the champions of mili- tary conscription for Hughes? ! k 9.-Why are all the elements of po-
 -scal reaction and political Bourbon
 n for Hughes? "
 [ 10.-Why is every enemy of indus 1 trial, financial and corporation reform for Hughes?
 When MT. Hughes makes his speech of acceptance we assume that he will
 be glad to of the opportunity to answer these questions or similar questions that relate to the extraordinary char
 acter of his most powerful supporters
 It is precisely tb6 kind of support that
 MT. Root would have if he were the Republican candidate, or that Senator
 Penrose or William Barnes could have
 relied on had the Chicago Convention
 nominated either of them, instead of
 MT. Hughes.
 | There is not an intelligent Republi- can who will not frankly admit that except for Wall Street, Big Business
 and the German vote, MT Hughes
 would have practically no chance of
 election. This support is the backbone of his campaign. 1 Some of the Republican candidates
 friends are already boosting that a larger campaign fund can be raised 1n Wall Street this year to elect Hughes

GEN. DODD
 RETIRES TODAY

Brigadier General George A. Dodd,
 who commanded the flying column
 sent in pursuit of the Villa raiders,
 will attain his sixty-fourth milestone
 today, and, under the operation of the
 age limit rule, will be retired from ac-
 tive service in Uncle Sam's army.
 General Dodd held the rank of colonel
 when he chased the ebullient Mexi-
 can outlaws, and hes was elevated to
 the rank of brigadier general early
 this month, being one of the five col
 onels to receive boost in rank by President Wilson, acting under the terms of the army reorganization bill. General Granger Adams, another of the colonels selected for the higher grade, is also nearing. the age limit, as he will be sEty-four in September Gen. Dodd has been an army offic- CT just forty years, having graduated from West Point in.the class of 1876, and he was dc lassmate of Gen. Adams. Dodd has long been noted as l a cavalry expert, and he is said to be one of the best Judges of horseflesh lin any army. As a horseman he has | had few equals, and expert horseman- ship is his hobby. His devotion to the equestrian art has been so keen as at times to provoke criticism among his colleagues, but on the whole there have been few more pop ular officers than Dodd, and his friends were delighted when he was made a brigadier general in time for him to retire with that rank. While Dodd did not capture Pan cho" Villa, he did succeed in dispers- | ing the bandits-a success achieved by hard all-night riding and a quick surprise on the bandit camp just at dayhreak.
 Gen. Dodd reached the rank of col onel in 1908. He is the only cavalry men among the five colonel promoted to brigadier general rank. Of the others Granger Adams is in the field artillery branch of the service; Clar- ence F. Townsley, superintendent of West Point Military Academy, is in

consin both factions of Republicans, the followers of Governor Philip and the followers of Senator La Toilette, are tainted with embargoism and proper subjects for de-hyphenization Republican Michigan, so lately MT. Ford's Michigan, needs sorely hom- fly on preparedness. At Chicago MT. Hughes can find in Senator Sherman and Representative Mann two choice specimens of MT. Hughes party in Congress, the party that denounces MT. Wilson's weakness and "vacillation" and then refuses to uphold his vigo- rous maintenance of American rights. In Minnesota, Iowa, Nebraska, the Dakotas, he will show his sturdy Amer icanism, will he not, by -trouncing the unfaithful Republican Representatives and Senators, the men who have made the Republican Party the party of sur- render, of cowardice, of trucking to alien sympathies? And so, on to the Pacific, we wish him prosperous pro- gress in the work of awakening a proper sense of contrition in his own party, which has other and more sinis- ter divisions in it than the feud of 1912, and record which MT. Hughes, if he still retains the Judicial tempera- ment, cannot overlook. He is for Americanism. Let him make his par ty American.
 In North Dakota, by the way, aside from the regrettable case of Senator McCumber, whose reelection MT. Hughes, as an ardent and genuine American, must be presumed to op- pose, he will find a new and par1ous ] ind of Republicanism. The so-called Npn-Partisan League, an organization of farmers, has nominated all the can- ,didates on. the Republican State tick st The glories of the Farmers AL liance, the great days of Populism, have dawned for North Dakota Repub- Iicanism. It seems to be Socialist Party. "A peculiar condition" as MT. McCumber says
 Peculiar conditions all along the line await the amiable gentleman who begins his pilgrimage in August. He needs to make a great many speeches, great many kinds of speeches; or wouldn't it be safer to throw his whole soul into the notification speech, and let it go at that?

the corporations to re-electi Mckinley in 1900, There must be reason for this confidence, aHd a, similar reason for the conferences that have been held between the Hughes managers ard leaders of the German propagan- ia. \ What is .,le central idea of the Hughes ca:nI s'g.,:-that Wall Street will, put up the money to organize the German .oto in all the d ,ubtful Str tes and rha- he German vote will make MT. Hughes President?
 MT. Hughes may answer that while all these. sinister interests are for him, he is not for them. That was MT. Hearst's reply in 1906 when MT. Hughes asked why he was Murphy S candidate for Governor. The answer was not satisfactory ten years ago when MT. Hearst gave it as his excuse, and it cannot be satisfactory now. In Mr.. Hughes case complete re- ply is doubly necessary. When he twas Governor of New York his State Administration was wrecked by the same kind of influences that are now trying to make him President. They
 put him into office to save a corrupt Republican organization and rotten system of government. Having used
 him successfully, they made sure that he should not overthrow either the or
 ganization or the system, and they had their way. Does any rational man doubt that they would have. their way again if MT. Hughes became Presi- dent? 1 No matter how great the ability or
 how lofty the personal character of a
 candidate for President may be, it is just and right that he should be judged in large measure, by the kind of SUD- port that he rallies to his cause. MT. Hughes has had a great deal to say about the ...tinidity and vacillation'' of President Wilson. When he makes
 his speech of acceptance will he brave ly tell the American people what he
 thinks of the Wall Street-German AL liance, without whose money and votes he can never be elected?

Mr.. Edgar's Criticism.

Editor Press-Dear Sir: In a re-
cent issue of a local paper appeared
an article headed "Would Convict
Crawford and Rehkopf Easily" Will
Edgar says: "When they swore that
no emergency exists they perjure
themselves before the people,
1t IS certain the author of said let
ter did not intend to make any such
charge. l believe that after he is
rightly quoted that it was an unin-
territorial insure of words in writing
said letter.
The undersigned has known Mr
Crawford for a number of years and
has had considerable business deal
ings with him AMI / believe him to
bc straightforward and honest in all
his business dealings. He is large
property holder AM heavy taxpayer,
and has the interest of the valley at
heart. All persons who know him will
credit him as being trustworthy, up
right and conscientious in all his deal
ings, and a man who would not allow
himself to be made party to any
doubtful or dishonc rable transaction,
but when he believes he is right he
has the courage of his convictions and
the stamina to stand by them when
occasion requires.
1t is no secret that many other peo-
pie besides Mr.. Crawford feel that
the Irrigation District is taking an
unwarranted action in appropriating
the $50O,OOO set aside by the original
petition as an emergency fund. No
Coubt the board of directors may feel
satisfied that they are justified and
safe in following the advice of their

counsel to appropriate said funds for
the purpose they intend.
The writer does not assume to pass
upon the legal questions involved, but
suggests that would it not have been
a better procedure to take the matter
before the local court by petition and
let the court decide on the evidence
submitted by both parties pro and
con whether such an emergency ex-
lists or not. If the judgment of the
court was in favor of the board and
that the money was rightfully appro-
priated, it would have put a quietus on
any contention that the emergency did
rot exist and thai the appropriation
of said funds was uncalled for.
The great trouble with existing con-
ditions is that the people themselves
do not take more active interest in
public affairs and give them more
thorough investigation, and try to as
sist the officials. On the other hand,
8 person is sought to be discredited
when he calls attention to proceed
ings which seem to him wrong and
uncalled for.
The writer believes any man holding
public office would like to have people
call upon him in good faith and give
their views about questions which the
official has, from time to time, to
pass upon, and believe it would be
mutually beneficial.
Yours very truly,
j. j. SIMMONS.
