For time the fighting was confined
to comparative small front, but soon
the battle spread, taking in the Ger.

the Verdun Douaumont ridge, and
sweeping onward until the French were
storming the trenches that the Germa ms

SlTKA MAN TAKES FIRST AUTO RIDE
 IN MANY YEARS

SEATTLE, Oct. IA. c. Shoup, superintendent of the Alaskan Pion- eers' Home at Sitla, who is regis tered at the Washington Annex, took his first automobile ride about Seattle since 1912 yesterday, and while the result was much more gratifying and less free of danger it brought forth recollections of a former tour of the city.
 Tn 1912" said Mir. Shoup, 'I was invited by friend to take a jaunt about Seattle in a big new automo. bile he has just purchased, and about the first thing he did was to knock down policeman. which is a very mceremonious, not to say somewhat costly action on the part of the motorist, but fortunately on this occasion the officer was not seriously injured. This time my auto tour of the city was marred by no disagreeable accidents, and | was much impressed with the won derful progress so noticeable in every part of the town"

THE NCONSlDERATE BEHAVIOR
OF A CANDIDATE.

Why does Mr. Hughes insist upon
talking about that old-fashioned. not
10 say UBIQUITOUS" doctrine, the pro-
tective tariff? For nearly the whole
period of its industrial existence, the
United States struggled along under
protection. The Democratic party in
1913 came to the relief of an afflicted
and burdened people.
The Republican Administration (not
on account of the tariff. it is true)
was overthrown. Before taking over
the reins of government, and for many
years prior to that time, countless
Democratic statesmen had vainly tried
to persuade the American people that
the protective tariff was an inQuty,
a veritable contrivance of devils. 1t
fostered the trusts, and it was an ele-
vator of prices even to the thirty-sev-
enth story and the tower. They prom
Used relief. The poor should be no
longer oppressed: the cost of living
should be reduced-must be- as the
sure result of a tariff for revenue
protective only in spots. such as the
Louisiana sugar mills and the Carolina
cotton factories.
Doesn't Mr.. Hughes know what the
Administration did which he is now
attacking? He ought to know. The
Democrats, under the leadership of
Mr.. Wilson and Mr.. Underwood, re-
pealed that iniquity and abomnation,
the Payne-Aldrich tariff law-that fos-
ter mother of trusts and high prices
and enacted in its place the present
law. Mr.. Hughes knows, of course,
as every head of family in America
knows, that the trusts have not vet
been dissolved and that the cost of
living is higher than ever,-that the
price of everything has reached an IN
heard-of height-but what of it?
What of it, indeed? While it is
true that a protective tariff never fail
ed, under any circumstances, to pro-
tect American industry and American
labor, it is to be considered that the
war in Europe has upset the plans Of
the present low-tariff administration
considerably. Also it forms an excel
lent foundation for an alibi. 1t is a
very unusual condition.
Now, the obvious thing for Mr.
Hughes to do is to give the Demo-
Gratis chance to get their tariff on
straight. Never mind the patient; let
the doctor experiment. That time
won't come, of course, until the war
Is over-accorGing to the Democratic
version. In other words the tariff
fOr-revenue doctrine doesn't fit the
conditions; the conditions must be
made to fit the tariff. SO why this
disturbance, Mr.. Hughes?
Besides, when you discuss little
thing like the tariff, do you not know
that Son-in-Law McAdoO and the other
statesmen of the Democratic family
are likely to repeat their accusation
that you are "pettifogging" Charles
