wHERE HUGHES STANDS.

In connection with the sentiment which has prevailed throughout the country favorable to Charles E. Hughes for the republican nominee for president, there has appeared a desire to know where he stands on some of the important questions be- fore the country. Justice Hughes has repeatedly declared that he is not candidate and therefore it could not be expected that he would hasten to declare himself upon these matters, even if his position on the supreme court bench permitted it.
 Without being spurred on, however, by present day conditions, Justice Hughes has, nevertheless, declared himself upon the question of prepared ness and protection. It was back in 1908, according to the Springfield Union, that he said before the Republican club of New York: 'TWe are devoted to the interests of peace, and we cherish no policy of aggression. The mainte- nance of our ideals is our surest pro- | tection.g It is our constant aim to live | in friendship with all nations, and to realize the aims of a free government, secure from the interruptions of strife | and the waste of war. 1t is entirely I consistent with these aims and it is our duty to make adequate provision for defense and to maintain the effi- ciency of our army and navy. And
 this favor"
 | As to the tariff, he says in another
 speech made in the same year: T be-
 ieve in a protective tariff. It is ar
 established policy. Our opponents | would not undertake to present to the voters of the country the issue of fret | trade. A protective tariff is essentia
 to the interests of our wage earners
 in that it makes possible the paymen of wages on the scale to which we art accustomed in this country, and thu maintain our American standards O living. Hence the difference in tn,
 cost Of production here and abroad Ii
 the fundamental consideration"
 There can be no question hencefortl as to where he stands on these ques
 tions. Nothing could be clearer O more to the point.

While i. has boon appreciated that his country should exert itself to do Werything possible to encourage in !ustrial and business activity in or- er to meet the demands which have cen and are being made upon 1t ecause the war has shut off he regular trade of many countries, !. is impossible to overlook the neces- ity of likewise making provision for aeeting the trade conditions which Till prevail following the war.

RECORD DOESN'T SUPPORT IT.

As in some other well known cases, the assertions which are being made in German newspapers to the effect that it was a British submarine that sent the Dutch liner Tubantia to the bottom, indicate the desire to escape the responsibility in connection with such an attack, but it is much more difficult to direct suspicion against the submarines of any of the allies than it is against the German submersi- bles for the simple reason that they lave not been engaged in any such kind of operations, while the offense has been repeated over and again by the kaiser's underwater boats. The act corresponded with the policy which Germany has carried out despite Fits promises to the contrary, and it is but natural that when anything of the kind occurs that suspicion should be at once directed to a German sub marine whether it happened to be seen or not.
 For the same reason it would not 1 necessarily be a fair conclusion to at tribute such an unjustifed act to a British submarine even had one been seen in that locality. Not even for the purpose of reprisaI has such policy been followed
 by the British against the en-
 emy, to say nothing of trying it on | the neutrals.
 There have been occasions before when Germany has sought to evade the responsibility as the result of the
 submarine activity. The claim was
 made that the Lusitania was armed
 and afndavits to support it were pre-
 sented only to be proved false, and
 the effort was made to blame a mine
 for what was later proved to be g submarine assault upon the Nebras. kan, so that it is impossible to give much weight to the effort of the Ger. man press to throw suspicion upor the British. The British record il
 that respect doesn't warrant 1t.

The Woman's Club met that after
 noon with Mrs. Blaisdell, who had an
 old, stately house full of old, stately,
 graciously worn things. And Mrs. Blaisdell was like her house-of past generation, yet all the more pleasing on that account. She was tall, thin, straight, with pure white hair and piercing black eyes Her black gown had no adornment save a plastron of thick yellow lace In the midst of this lace Q ruby darted fire.
 Edith Bland had come in with little Mrs. Armitage. She had come because Mrs. Armitage was insfstenr. She d1d not belong to the Woman'S Club, which already had some fame. But she knew Mrs. Blaisdell well and liked going to her house, save at this par ticular time. She now sat in the h. brary and looked about her at the twenty women who were all listening attentively to the paper which Miss Shopland was reading. Some of these women were old, a few young, and them all. She exchanged calls with them. Half a dozen were enthusias- tic members of her whist and em- broidery clubs, with three or four she was on intimate terms. She had be- heved there were no surprises in them for her. How could there be when she knew their houses, their clothes, their very personalities SC well? And yet here in Mrs. Blais- delPs library. each woman presented new aspect to her. She felt amazed timid, almost awe struck. Of course she had known that Mrs. ArInitage and Mrs. Reese and lot more were l university women, but she never had thought of their education amounting

Tn the April American Magazine is an account of Herbert C.

 MT. Hoover does all this with no tel egraph or telephone and but scant help from the railroad Most of the provisions are transported by canal They are distributed in rations that will just sustain life. In a letter to e friend Mir. Hoover recently said:
 Tt strikes me that trying to feed the Belgians is Ike trying to feed a hungry little kitten by means of a for ty-foot bamboo pole. said kitten con- fined in a barred cage occupied by two hungry lions"

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Whom VIII Ye Serve Most7

Mir. Editor: The following was sug- gested to the writer by the activities of a certain country Methodist parson to raise the various sums of money assessed his charge by the conference authorities for what they call disci- plinary benevolences and ministerial support
 The former consists of donations to the Boards of Home and Foreign Mis- sionS, of Education, of Sunday schools, of Conference Claimants, for Church Temperance society, for Woman's Home and Foreign Missionary Socie- ties, for American Bible Society and for city missions or church extension society. The latter of donations for the support of conference claimants. of the bishops and of the presiding el- ders-pardon me-the district superin- tendents.
 This charge is a country one-just a farming village of about twenty five families located immediately about the church and not many more within the 1 radius of a mile. The church record will show about fifty names enrolled as members and also that, in the last two years the gain in converts l has exceeded the loss by death by about 35 per cent
 This percentage is no reflection on the work of the parson but to show the numerical strength of the church.

NO PLACE FOR PAIN

There is no place for rheumatic pains and misery, if you will only fol- low the advice of an old, experienced physician. Dr. Levi Minard prescribed and used Minard's liniment for sore ness, stiffness, swelling and all rheu- matic pains.
 There is no other remedy that can take it's place. It has never failed and Is perfectly harmless, economical, agreeable and clean to use, as it is absolutely stainless.
 Minard's liniment, obtained from any druggist, is wonderfully soothing, penetrating and effective in all cases of strains, lumbago. sore joints, stiff- ness, sciatica and rheumatism.

FEW GOVERNMENT AERoPLANEs

In the past there has been slight at tention paid by this government to the importance of developing the aviation branch of the army, or the navy for that matter. In spite of the fact that the flying machine was shown to be possible by Americans inventors, for eign governments were the first to take hold of them and recognize the need of developing their possibilities. While in this country the chief de- pendence has been placed upon pri- vate capital to bring out the merits of the heavier than air machines, great fleets have been built up abroad and the value of such efforts has been clearly demonstrated since the open ing of the war across the water.
 Now that this country has begun a search for Villa and his outlaw band it is realized what a service can be rendered by the navigators of the air, but the ten machines which it has been considered advisable to send in- to Mexico include those which have been offered to the government by pri- sFate parties.
 This does not show that this coun- try is properly prepared even to send out a punitive expedition and give it the necessary equipment in the way of aeroplanes. It shows as nothing else can, however that while this branch of the national defense has been ne- glected in the past there is sufficient reason why it ought not to be in the future. The Valuable lessons which just such situations furnish cannot be overlooked, especially when it is now reported that two of the machines sent across the border have apparently be- come disabled. It ought not to be possible for it to be said in the future that there continued to be neglect 1T spite of the many revelations which have'been and are steadily being made

RAILWAY MAIL RAY.

Once again the question of pay for the transportation of mails and parcel post Is before congress, and iA is one to which there is likely to be no end until the matter is fairly ad- iusted. This week the presidents of the railroads have appeared before the senate postoff1ce committee in opposi- ton to the Moon bill which deals with railway pay for the carriage of mail according to what is termed the space plan," which would require the fixing of a minimum rate for car space and then permit maximum loading of the space without additional pay for the eytca weight carried, or the additional service performed.
 Objection is made to it because it s considered unfair, the contention be- Ing that there should be pay fo1 he services performed, which would oe possible through the weighing o1 he mails once every year instead oi 'nce every four years.
 Increased attention has been giver Q this subject because of the extre business the postoffice department is ioing by the parcel post, and by the statement of Congressman Moon to thu Affect. that 8 saving of eight million iollarg could be made each year bJ 7e pcstoffice department by gettint III the parcel post carried probably without any additional expense.
 This does not appear to be a faii way of looking at the matter, any nore than 1t is just that such a bil hould be included as a rider to tn, ,ostofice appropriation bill It Is onl, slst that the carriers should ask fo fair compensation for the service
 hey render. and that they should ge s full Q consideration from the gov
 rnmepe as any other employe.

make travel safer and would prevent accidents.-Bridgepo Standard

Not long ago the Courant raised ths question how Horace Greeley could have a grandson bearing his name who the New York papres were in- terviewing, when the old man never had a son to hand down the name A correspondent informs this paper that when Nicholas, Smith and h-s wife. who was . daughter of Greeley had a son born to them. they waived the right to name him Smith and se- cured for the boy the name or Horace Greeley instead of Smith So he is in fact Greeley's grandson, though not bearing the name he would normally have inherited. The mother of Horace Greeley's daughter was a Miss Chee- ney of Litchheld- She was q sister of Silas Cheney, an eccentric character of sthe town who acquired consider- able wealth. He wore his black hair very long and would occasionally go to New York, returning with it cut and trimmed. and 1t was a whisper that he sold off the crop and thus added to his welcome income.

 The term district superintendent I think, judging from observations, must have been copied from the industrial insurance world. You know in that business what happens to the agent who can't keep his amount of tnsur- ance up to a certain standard?
 Well, the district superintendent can't fire a parson from his job Gas a parson)~ but the parson can incur the displeasure of the district super. and that is the ''one other thing"
 For the displeasure of the D. S. may and often does mean a smaller charge and consequently a smaller salary when the appointments are made at the next session of the annual confer ence.

The Only Man.

Mir Editor: I would like to take is- sue with your editorial of March 21, in regard to Roosevelt and the Pri- mary" To quote one of your state ments: 'It was not so long ago, that he was demanding that the nominee should be the choice of the people" Is that not his attitude now? It was only last week that a statement came from the West Indies, in which 1t was stated, that if he were to be consid- cred at >all the call must be unani- nous.
 And as for trying "to attain the end which will serve his purpose best" why, MT. Editor, I believe that such is not at all the case He is the only man. who, without regard to the after effects, has spoken the word of truth. about our present helpless condition, and with vigor, has not failed to con- den1n policies, that were not for the nations best interests.
 He is undoubtedly the man of the hour, and if he were again our pres ident, I am confident that the affairs of state would take on a much smooth CT aspect.
