ATTRACTS BUSINESS MEN.

Mr.. Hughes has not tried to scare
anybody, but has merely portrayed
the errors of the present Administra-
tiun and set forth certain principles
on which the affairs of the country
should he managed in the future.
There is political logic in this por-
trayal. the elimination of which in the
mind of the voter is expressed by the
frequent remark:
He is the kind of man we want to
steer us through"
This has been said by many busi-
ness man. The qualities seen in Mr.
Hughes are poise, n strong, sane mind,
sincerity and willingness TO sacrifice
life, physical or political, to the good
of the country. Nor is there any ques-
ton as to the quality of nerve to meet
the emergencies of the four years be-
ginning March 4, 1917.

this novel and contemplate interpre-
tation of safety first" as our guiding
principle we would look for a Con-
gress upon its knees in supplication
and compliance.
Is this policy to be permanently
established by the Endorsement of the
people of the United States? Is the
Government of the United States to
slink henceforward with its tail be-
tween its legs. or is it to stand up
tall. firm, courageous, Just to all men
and to all interests, fearing none and
subservient to none? This is not
question of labor nor of hours. 1t is
a question that involves the perpet-
uity of independent government in
America, nothing else.

HUGHES ON THE STRIKE


II believe there is no grievance
with respect to labor that cannot b'
settled by a fair, candid examination
of the facts.
II believe that anvtE'hg that /:
right in this country can be settled
right. We have come down the long
course of history with the people
fighting slowly, slowly. now with de
feat and now with victory, for a rec.
oguition of the reign of reason in
stead of the reign of tyranny and
force.
Now then. I stand for two things:
First, for the principle of fair, I'M
partial. thoro. candid arbitration; and
second. for legislation on facts ac-
cording to the necessities OF the case,
and | am opposed to being dictated TO
either in the executive department or
in congress. by any power on earth
before the facts are known and in the
absence of facts.
We have a great country and a
great future. but it can only be pre-
served in one way; that way is the
way of an honest, fair investigation
and candid treatment Show me the
way that is right and l will take it.
Mr.. Hughes met in this wise the
challenge he received at Memphis.
He found a crowd in the enemy's
country" the solid south, which dar-
ed Mr.. Hughes to say what he would
have done had he been faced by the
crisis which President Wilson has
postponed thru surrender.
His answer came back with that
force and vigor with which a brave
man meets an open challenge. He
did not hedge He did not propitiate.
He did not yield one inch.
He would stand for arbitration. He
would stand for the sovereignty OF the
United States above the threat of any
groupe of its citizens.
That it should take courage for a
presidential candidate to stand for
arbitration; the accepted weapon of
Society's defence, shows how deeply
President Wilson's course already has
cut under the foundations which our
of industrial warfare has
been so laboTiously building up. That
men should expect Mr.. Hughes to ap-
prove the governments surrender of
its authority shows still more clearly
the disastrous course toward which
Mr.. Wilson has pointed US.
The time surely will come when
the country will need in the White
house a man who will say and mean
the words uttered by Mr.. Hughes in
his Memphis speech.

I'VE HAD TO DO 1T"
(St. Louis Globe-Democrat) J


Next to the cowardice of Congress
in passing the Adamson bill under
compulsion Is the cowardice of the
defenders of that action. 1t had to
be done, is their cry. The country
was confronted by great calamity.
Four hundred thousand men were
about to strike. The railroad service
of the country would have been para
lyzed. The president and Congress
had TO intervene. and had TO inter
vene in a hurry. There was no time
for investigation, no time for discus
sion. The only possible course was
to give these men what they wanted,
and consider the wisdom and justice
of the action afterwards. We must
have peace at any price, II does not
matter that the dignity and honor of
the nation have been sacrificed. 1t
does not matter that the American
eagle. like the tabled ostrich. has
buried its head in the sand. The
strike has been averted, and lit is a
famous victory"
Are we, then. to shape our course
by this new principle. Is our ma
tioual emblem hereafter to be the
rabbit, ever fleeing from alarms? Is
cowardiee to be apothesized as the
national yirtuee Are We TO rejoice
in our pusillanimity. and boast of our
agility in seeking shelter? II would
seem so, ii We Judge from this act and
the shouts of lis supporters. But to
what will this thing lead US? We
have established the principle OF ac-
tion by president and Congress for
and in behalf of private interest un-
der the compulsion of force We
have shown that the Government of
the United States, which we love to
believe is the greatest government
under the sun, can be compelled. re-
gardless of the right or the wrong
of it, TO do the will of any body OF
men sufficient in numbers and or
ganization to intimiiate il or the
public by the power and the threat
of disaster. The nature of such a
body is not material. 1t happens in
this case TO have been laborers, but
the ignominy would be no less If il
were merchants or farmers. Suppose
the butchers of the country were to
unite and announce that they would
close their shops indefinitely unless.
or until, certain demands were COM
piled with. With this precedent be-
fore us we should expect Congress
and the president to come forward
humbly and fearfully and give the
butchers. or compel the public to give
them, whatever they desired. whether
it was just or unjust. Imagine the
farmers getting together and binding
themselves to produce no more crops
unless demands contrary to public in
terests were instantly granted. With

ROOsEvELTS CHANCES.


The careful newspaper reader can
not escape the conclusion that the
Roosevelt boom for the republican
nomination for president shows dis
tinct signs OF being on the wane.
Three weeks ago II seemed certain
that the colonel would be the nomi-
nee. Now there is nothing certain
about IT, This is not to say that
Roosevelt Is not still "a strong candi-
date, nor yet that he will not be the
winner at the Chicago convention.
But that feeling Of supreme confi-
denee which possessed the support
ers Of the former bull moose chief
tain a time back is now conspicuous
by It's absence and they are willing
to admit the possibility that some one
other than their man Will he nomi-
mated.
It Is not easy to explain the psy-
chology Of this change. Nothing has
happened that was specially caleu-
