Crowd Of Three Thousand Hears
Speakers from Hughes Workers

Those who went to the depot or to
Lithia park yesterday expecting to
see poodle dogs and monkeys were
disappointed Those who expected
to see a group of earnest women,
democrats. socialists and republicans,
who are convinced and want to con-
vince others that Charles Evan
Hughes is the man best fitted for
president of the United States, were
more than satisfied. The woman's
special train carried a group of wom-
en- every one of whom has record
of accomplishment in many lines OF
social betterment, and as far as any
one could learn there was not a mil
lionairess in the crowd except possi-
bly, Mrs. Ward Howe Elliott, who, in
the words of one Of the party, rs
millionairess in her inheritance of
name" And Ashland gave the visit
ing women an enthusiastically royal
reception. Fully three thousand peo-
pie gathered in Lithia park to hear
the visitors. and over hundred cars
met the delegation at the depot.
Marred BY DiscOurtesy.
The afternoon was slightly marred,
however. by the discourtesy shown
by a number of Wilson partisans,
who apparently forgot that Ashland
was hostess to these visitors, that
Ashland stood to gain or to lose her
reputation as an entertainer royal,
that the Civic improvement Club, re-
gardless of politics, had made a big
effort to greet the visitors with a
profusion of fruit, flowers and hos
pitality, that common courtesy and
fairness demand a hearing of the
"other fellows" side uninterrupted
by hoodlum yells. A number of cars
at the station bore signs with painted
reproductions of Wilson and Mar
shall and six railroad men lined up
holding Ike signs so that the eastern
women would see them. During the
talks in the park occasional cries
came from ten or twelve Wilson SYM
pathizers, who apparently forgot
their manners. The visitors were
magnificently oblivious of all these
things. however, and made no refer
ence to any of the unpleasant things
which happened here or elsewhere
in Oregon. Many democrats were
heard to express themselves as dis
gusted with the actions of their fel-
low party members.
Reception Pleases.
"How beautiful" "You are too
generous" and like exclamations of
pleasure were heard on every side
during the stay of the visitors here.
The women on the reception commit
tee surely did themselves proud with
the nice things arranged for the
pleasure of the easterners. After
the party had been taken to the
Lithia park bandstond each was pre-
sented with an Ashland rose by little

east, but all from women. She told
of the aim of the special train, to try
to gain enthusiasm to take east with
them from the western women who
had the right to vote and to try to
bring to the west an understanding
of. some of the problems of the east
with which the west is not convers-
ant. She told of the different work
ers and what they had accomplished
and also of the experiences they had
encountered upon the trip west.
