of his fancy, or to indulge in license
of freedom to follow his own personal
choices in any direction to which his
Imagination might lead him. a
HE is the executive under our con-
stitutional system charged>with the
duty of managing the great business
affairs of the United States. His
first duty is to give to the country
an efficient administration of the
public business. 1t is perfectly" idle
for US to expect in the trying days to
which undoubtedly we shall be called
in the coming years, the prosperity
which we desired to enjoy unless we
have in this country exhibited, as in
deed are exhibited in many countries
abroad, the highest standards of ad-
ministrative work in our public SER
vice.
"The executive should surround
himself in the various departments
of public work with the very ablest
talent at his command. He should
never permit diplomatic agencies, for
example the organization of our great
State department and the reperesen-
tation of the nation in all its interna-
tional relations, to be subordinated to
narrow conception of supposed
partisan exigency. America stands
in her diplomacy with high prestige,
won and maintained by the character
and special ability Of the men who
represent it in the councils of the ma
tons and our international affairs.
Business Capacity Necessary.
1--WE shall speak in vain of the pre-
paredness we should have for our
national defense unless the great de-
partments that have to deal with the
expenditures of the vast sums re-
quired for this purpose are under the
leadership of the most competent
men. I do not care to be told that
great amounts of money have been
appropriated for the purpose OF
equiping our navy unless am as
sured that we will have the business
capacity in the management OF the
Navy department, which will assure
well-spent dollars and navy, when
the dollars are spent.
Nor do care for paper re-or-
CARNATIONS Of the army, or mere bills
for the purpose Of adding to our
forces, or provision for the. expendi-
ture of money in supplies necessary
for the maintenance of our military
establishment unless we have COM
petent business leadership.
Had To Get Out.
Eve did have in the cabinet of
this administration first-class man
as our first secretary of war, but he
could not live with the administration
and had to get out.
Their promises Of efficiency have
not been maintained in these great
departments. If l am elected presi-
dent, as l expect to be. promise
to call to these great administrative
positions men in whose judgment the

can rights, and that he proposed il
elected to make the American flag
the symbol not only Of courtesy and
justice, but OF firmness and consist
ency in maintaining "our known
rights on land and sea-" .y.
The nominee assailed the admins
tration for its alleged failure to aid
in the development of American
trade abroad by upholding American
rights, characterized as very cruel
and unwarrantable," suggestions that
a vote for him meant vote for war
and declared that in American rela-
tons with foreign nations he was op.
posed to a ''muddle of meddle."
Defines Political Leadership.
At Batavia, the first stop of the
day, Mr.. Hughes asserted that he
had entire confidence in the result
of the elections in Indiana and Ohio
In his speech here tonight, the nomi-
nee defined political leadership. The
! meeting here was presided over by
William Barnes, former republican
state chairman.
Mr.. Hughes spoke at Oneida, Am
sterdam, Schenectady and Troy, on
his way here. The addresses at
Oneida and Amsterdam were five.
minute talks, in which the nominee
reiterated briefly his attitude toward
the chief issues of the day. The
speech at Schenectady was before ar
audience that had awaited his arrival
for more than an hour. Many per-
sons were turned away from this
meeting unable to gain entrance to
the hall.
Don't Like Criticism.
"Our opponents do not seem to like
the idea of criticism with respect to
international policy" Mr.. Hughes
said in his Schenectady speech. But
| beg to remind them that an Ameri-
can president is elected for a term
of four years, and under our insti-
tutions, at the conclusion of that
term, the American people express
their minds.
"When a matter is so important as
the maintenance of American rights,
it is highly necessary that American
opinion should be expressed; and !
have no apology to make in standing
before you and in saying that if l
am elected president ! propose that
the American flag shall not be only
| symbol of curtesy, symbol OF
| iustice-but il shall be the symbol of
| firmness/ and consistency in main
tanning our known rights on land and
sea throughout the world. -
Not a Policy Of War.
"That is not a policy that leads to
war. There never has been a time
perhaps in our history, when it was
easier to keep the American nation
out of war than during the last few
years when every nation engaged in
the great strife abroad desired our
friendship, and would not by reason

keen commercial rivalry, representa-
tives of American industry carrying
their talents to the service OF the
world in foreign lands. 1t is idle,
however, to expect success in that d.
rection il we do not have full pro-
lection to those who represent our
interests abroad.
Meaning Of the Flag.
81 am amazed to have anyone sup
pose that we can prosper in the ex-
tension of American trade through
out the world if our flag is only an
invitation to come home. Men who
before election are described as hav-
ing the best genius in the world and
as doing duty to humanity should
not be in danger, after election, of
being called servants of their own
private interests who take their lives
in their own hands for their personal
ends. @
"The dignity of American citizen
ship. of one who is lawfully follow
ing his vocation anywhere-his rights
are recognized by our laws and con-
stitution as pertaining to American
citizens throughout the world. These
are not gifts for the administration
to bestow or withhold in its dis
cretion; rather these are trusts to be
sacredly guarded"
Mr.. Hughes assailed the administra-
ton for its Mexican policy. He de-
clared that the question of recogniz-
ing Huerta was beside the mark
and not an issue. "And refer to it
only because of the very cruel and
unwarantable suggestions that an ap..
proval OF my candidacy is an approval
of war;" he said, "as though our op..
ponents had in some way acquired
monopoly on peace"
81 mean to emphasize that the
policy of the administration has been,
in my judgment, not a policy OF
peace, but rather a policy involving
petty and unjustifable warfare; and
| propose that we have a policy
which shall have as its cornerstone,
first, that we shall not have a muddle
of NEEDLE, as Disraeli once said, but
that we shall have protection OF
American lives and property, and the
prosecution of consistent policy
which cannot fail to evoke respect
while it safeguards the rights OF
American citizens.
1--WE hear a great deal of talk, not
only with reference to peace, but with
respect to prosperity. The interest
ing thing about it is that these sug-
gestions, which are intended to have
political effect, when examined and
considered and analysed lead to just
the opposite conclusions which those
putting forward the suggestions n,
tend to present to the public mind

through whose administration we
shall not have preparedness on paper,
but actual Preparedness.
Il propose that we have a proper
budget system, that it be no longer
necessary for US to have haphazard
consideration of many demands from
many sources, without the necessary
equipment for comprehensive view
through a budget prepared on execu-
tive responsibility"
Mr.. Hughes reiterated his attitude
toward domestic policies, including
THE rule of reason" and the tariff.
He repeated his views that America
after the war would meet the fierce
competition of an organized Europe
with more workers than every before
even after allowing for the wastes OF
war, and declared that the only way
to meet this competitor was through
the protection of American industry
by a protective tariff.

total OF fifty-three districts. thirty eight
reported an increase, and only fifteen re.
ported a decrease. As usual the non.
union districts, and those partly union.
show the largest growth in the industry.
There is notable exception, however. in
several strong blue label districts. which
have made considerable gains in produc
ton.
In Colorado, for instance, there was an
increase OF ll0.5sO, the report showing
l,l31,1I0 for the month OF February,
1916, as against l,027 l90 for the same
period in 1915.
From present indications the months
OF April, May and June are likely to
show a marked improvement along the
whole line in the distribution OF ali
tobacco products. The increased earning.
of the masses of the workers are bound
to stimulate production and consump-
tion.
The production OF cigars, for which
taxes have been paid in February, 1916,
amounted to 53s ,922, $40, as compared
with 473,272,790 in the corresponding
month OF 1915; showing an increase of

In the April issue of the Cigar Makers
Official Journal is printed the annual
financial report showing receipts and
expenses OF each local union, and the
recapitulation. also the recapitulation OF
1914 for comparison. The report is in
teresting and instructive, and should re-
ceiye very careful consideration The
sum total paid for all purposes, exclud-
ing loans. for 1915, is S62l ,s3907, while
the grand total paid for all benefits, in
cluding loans, in thirtysix years and
two months, is Sl2,669 ,254.45, in the ex-
penditure of which all real unionists take
genuine satisfaction.
The long drawn out industrial depres-
sion continued practically thru the year
1915 in so far as our trade Is concerned.
This is more forcibly demonstrated BY
comparison OF the amounts expended
for out of work benefit. For this pur-
pose in 1914 we expended 6S.l9s. while
in 1918 the amount jumped to sl22,954
showing an increase in this benefit as
compared with 1914. of s54,756.
1t will be noted that the expenditure
for sick benefit purposes, s2l0, 81, is
nearly 5000 in excess of the amount
expended for like purposes in 1914. The
amount expended for death benefit, s21s,-
5o9.6i, remained practically the same as
in 1914. For strike benefit purposes We
expended s9,947.56, while for this pur.
pose in 1914 We expended s50.s9s.5o,

EDITOR
FIGHTING THE ARMoR- PLATE TRUST

Senator Tillman's bill to provide for an Sll, J
100000 government owned armor plant is re
ported to have passed the senate yesterday by
a big vote, but its way through the house may
be uncertain, since much protest has arisen
against it.
Part of the protest, of course, comes from tile
private munitions plants. Their purported
threat to boost the price Of armor5 plate $500 a
ton was, in fact, the thing which drew most at
tention to the.bill The manufacturers say that
their plants have been enlarged primarily ON
the assurance of the government business and
that it was the government which induced them
TO invest heavily on future prospects.
But Senator Tillman and several administra-
tion Democrats in Congress point ont that the
arnor- plate men did not really begin to expand
until they started to get huge orders from Eu
rope; that in most cases the steel plants have
not only paid regular and extra dividends, but
have laid by handsome surplus, and that
these same manufacturers do not hesitate to
sell their product cheaper abroad than in Tie
United States. t f
1t is specifically declared that the United
States amor-plate is sold to the Japanese at
800 ton less than the price to Uncle Sam, and
that this price for Japan is made to compete
with the government owned factory in Nippon.
The threat of the American manufacturers to
raise prices has apparently served TO hasten
the bill in Congress and Senator Tillman has
expressed himself as. absolutely sure of its
passage.
