WILL MR. HUGHES ANSWER?

W ! - wi u II - " II 10 nv ~ liz
The following Is taken from
editorial published in the New
York World of July IS.
1. Why is Wall Street for
Hughes?
> Why is the German vote for
Hughes:
3. Why are the great financial
interest that are still p!ulling to
substitute a central bank for the
Federal Reserve System for
Hughes:
4. Why are the tariff mouoDOiis
who dictated the schedules Of the
repudiated Payne-Aldrich tariff
for Hu shes.?
5.Why are the chief opponents
Of American neutrality for
Hughes
8 Why are the advocates of
armed Intervention and war with
Mexico for Hughes?
7. Why are the trusts for
Hughes?
8. Why are the champions of
military CONSUMPTION for Hughes?
9. Why are all the clements of
political reaction and political
Bourbonism for Hughes.
10. Why is every enemy of in
dustrisl, financial and corporation
reform tor Hughes?
There is not an intelligent Re
publican who will not admit that
eXcep: for Wall Street, Big Bus
mess and the German vote Mr..
Hughes would have practically no
chance OF election. This support
is the backbone of his campaign.
Some of the Republican candi-
didate's friends are already boast
Ing that larger campaign fund
can be raised in Wall Street this
year to elect Hughes than Mark
aaL ma black jacketed out of the
corporations to re.elect Mckinley
i'll 1890. There must be reason
for this confidence, and a similar
reason for the conferences that
have been held between the
Hughes manager and leaders o.;
the German propaganda What j.
the central idea of the Hugie $
campaign? - that Wall Street
viii put up the money to organize
the German vote in all the douh =
ful St les and that the German
vote will make Mr.. Hughes
President.
MIR Hughes may ans yer that
while all these sinister interests
are for him, he is not for them
That was Mr.. Hearst's reply in
10 when Mr.. Hughes asked why
he was Murphy's candida 10.
Cover NOR The answer was nol
satisfactory ten years ago when
Mr.. Hears: gave it as hi. excuse
and it cannot be satisfactory now
In Mir Hughes case coupiete
reply is doahly necessary. Wher
he was governor of New York his
State was wrecked by the same
kind of influences that are nov
trying 10 make him President
They put him into Office to save
A corrupt Republican organization
and Il rotten system of govern
ment. Having used him success
fully, they made sure that he
should not overthrow either the
organization or the system, auC
t'eY had their way. Does an,
rational man doubt that the,
would have their way again /
Mr.. Hughes became President
No matter how great the abilit !
or how lofty the personal charac
ter of a candidate for Presiden
may be, it is ?ust and right tina
be should be Judged in a larg;
measure bv the support that Ii,
rallied 10 his cause. Mr.. Hughe
has had a great deal to say abou
the timidity and vascillatiOn 20
President Wilson. When he mad.
his speech # acceptance he failed
to tell the American people what
he thought CT the Wall Street
German Alliance, without who's
money and votes he could never
hope to be elected?
