land especially the small business) be treated
fairly and justly. Only under such conditions
can business pay living wages or compete with
foreign manufactures
In this respect again the present administra-
ton holds policy entirely opposite 1t has
viewed business enterprise with suspicion and
has made the government a brake to stop the
wheels of Legitimate industrial progress 1t has
treated the business men of this country as
though they were suspicious characters. 1t has
assumed that capital and labor are natural enc
mics. In four years it has put this country
further on the road to class war than has been
accomplished in a generation before. The men
who stand with me believe in the honesty of the
American working man. they believe no less in
the honesty of the American business man, and
they believe that the common good is to be found
not in class war but in mutual Justice and fair
dealing not as between capital and labor in the
abstract but as between men and men.
You know the road we have travelled this last
four years. Mr.. Bryan and Mr.. Daniels are its
monuments of executive efficiency. Our murder

ception of American citizenship plain enough to
see but new one for American patriotism to
adopt; the monument of class bitterness raised
by this administration throws sinister shadow
across our political horizon; the unjust accusa-
ton against business men has left bitter taste
in our national life. If you prefer this path it is
plainly marked. And the end of it is class war

My Conception of the Presidency
By CHARLES EVANS HUGHES

ON the eve of Election Day the American
J people are entitled to a summary of the
things l haye stood for in this campaign, as
they are the things | shall stand for as Presi-
dent.
No man can tell in advance what unexpected
demands the next four years may present but
one whose conception of the Presidents duty
rests upon fundamental principles can describe
with entire sincerity how the problems of ad
ministration would be approached and in what
spirit they would be solved
man charged with the duty of reaching de-
sired goal knows that the road to it is found in
following that path which sound judgment and
clear vision open up step by step l can show
the road | expect to travel.
propose first of all to start right. The Presi-
dent is primarily an executive. 1t is his supreme
duty to attend to the business of the nation, to
safeguard its interests. to anticipate its needs,
to enforce its laws.
The first act of President who takes this
view of his duties is to call about him the ablest
cabinet the country can furnish, who
deal with the tremendous international and do
nestle problems which will confront US in the
next four years.
My conception of the Presidency differs abso-
lutely from that of Mr.. Wilson. l look upon the
President as the administrative head of the
Government He looks upon the President as
primarily the political leader and lawmaker of
the nation.
In the two departments of Government most

partment of State and the Department of the

can assure the country that any administration
under my direction will stand upon sound ad
illustrative ground with the ablest cabinet the
country can supply.
Across the road we to travel this next
four years. even though we start right and move
with prudence and courage, serious hazards are
thrown like breaks in a roadway made by tor
rental rain. These all rise out of the war tor
rent which has overwhelmed Europe. The first
has to do with our foreign relations. 1t is the
Presidents duty to safeguard the interests of
our own nation and to preserve the friendship of
every other nation.
No man is more determined than to maintain
the peace which the United States, Spain,
Sweden, Norway and all the American republics
now enjoy. But should seek to maintain that
peace by firm and courteous insstence on the

rights of our citizens at home and abroad.
An American in Mexico is subjected to Mexi-
can law, but he is an American still and is en-
titled to the protection of his own government in
his lawful business. For one | shall never con-
sent to policy which leaves Americans helpless
against the lawlessness of any country in which
they have right to do business.
There confronts labor IN the next four years
condition more serious than any that American
laboring men have been called upon to face
When this war began over a million American
working men were seeking yainlY for employ
ment. When the war ends and the developed
energies of new Europe are thrown into COM
mercial production, our nation will face com
petition such as it never knew.
One of two things must happen-either mil
lions of men will be seeking work in vain or else
there must be thought out in advance the prob
lens of commercial organization as France and
England and Germany are seeking to think out
the problem today. Every one of these nations
is preparing to defend its own market by pro-
tective tariff The end of the war will end also
the opportunities for labor created by the war.
The millions in the trenches today will be our in
dustrial competitors tomorrow. If we to
save our laboring men from catastrophe we
must plan tariff protection along sound, just
and economic lines To this endeavor pledge
myself and the men who are to be my colleagues
In this matter again | differ absolutely from
the policy of the present administration Demo-
cratic platforms have declared that the Govern
ment has no right TO levy tariff duties except for
income. This is the fundamental faith of the
Democratic party.
pledge myself and those who stand with me
to deal with the needs of laboring men the coun-
try over. whatever their trade or organization,
upon the principle of giving the largest protec-
ton possible to every American working man
and the largest participation possible in the
prosperity of our industries with special favors
to none.
Finally it is to be remembered that every
European government is putting itself behind its
industries; organizing them, encouraging them
and suggesting economies. When the COM
mercial struggle begins anew, the industries of
every European country will go into the world
markets backed by the effective cooperation and
intelligent oversight of their government.
Our national policy requires that government
maintain strict supervision of business organi-
cation. This can be done effectively and vet
leave the Government free to encourage legiti-
mate and wholesome business enterprise. Istand

ThRty-0ne Men Finish Their
Courses in the Kansas
State Prison.

Something brand new in the way
Of school commencements was un-
covered the other day at Lansing
Kan, when thirty-one inmates Of the
state penitentlary we're given certih-
Gates for work done in prison under
the extension department Of the Kan
sas state agricultural college. The
prison students completed work In
agriculture, electricity, blacksmith
ing, steam boilers and engines, auto
mobiles and electricity.
Aside from the fact that this was
said to be the first commencement
ever held in prison walls, there was
little to mark 1t from other com
mencements. The class members,
distinguished from the other prison
ers BIZ white instead Of blue shirts,
white collars and a badge Of the class
colors, orange and blue, sat on the
platform under their motto, THE
Dawn of a New Day"
Just Like a College.
President H. ]. Waters, Of theagri-
cultural college, delivered the grad
uating address; Professor George 3.
Bray and Professor NJ. G. Burton, OF
the college, and Chaplain Allen, OF
the prison orchestra, contributed mu-
steal numbers. As Professor Burton
read the names Of the graduates and
handed them their certificates, each
rose at his place, according to the col
lege custom.
President Waters seized upon the
similarity Of the exercise to those OF
a college graduation. To pursue the
comparison further, he said:
"some of our students loaf through
college, and then loaf through life.
Others 90 through brilliantly and
lean to success later, while still 9TH
ers start with very little promise,
work hard and gradually improve.
These are the ones in whom we are
most interested. The man who mends
his record is the man the world has
confidence in and will help. To you
and to other students l say that It Is
not what kind Of job you have when
You get out that matters, but what
you do with It."
