The Bemidji daily pioneer. [volume] (Bemidji, Minn.) 1904-1971, 1916-08-01

New York, Aug. Charles e.
Hughes, former justice of the United
States supreme court, was officially
notified last night that he was the
Republican choice for the presidency.
Senator Harding, who was chairman
of the Republican national conven-
tion, formally notified Mr.. Hughes.
Outlines Issues.
Mr.. Hughes in an address of &C
ceptance outlined the issues upon
which he will conduct his campaign
for the presidency. 49,
He assailed the administration for
the course it has pursued with refer
ence to Mexico, maintenance of Am
erican rights during the European
war, preparedness and other great
questions of the day. He declared
for new policy of 'frmness and
consistency" towards Mexico, for "the
unfinching maintenance Of all Am
erican rights on land and sea" and
for 'tadequate naval defense; ade-
quate protection on both our west
ern and eastern coast"
Criticizes Administration.
The nominee criticized the admin
tration for it's Correction of diplo-
matte intercourse" from the begin
ming, declaring that where there
should have been conspicuous
strength and expertness there has
been weakness and inexpertness. He
cited San Domingo as an instance
where "trust was shockingly be-
trayed by appointment given to the
deserving democrats" and in the fail
ure to continue Ambassador Herrick
at his post in Paris after the war had
started as "a lamentable sacrifice OF
international repute"
