so gullible as he was a generation
or decade ago.
! He treats his own judgment above
the dicta of leaders or the pledges
Of platforms.
He looks at the candidate first and
his associates afterwards.
If the one seems good and the 9TH
ers seem bad, he knows that little
OF benefit can come to himself by
an association of the two.
Spells OF rhetoric. inflamed oratory
and factional appeals do not move him
TO vote against his own studied sense
of the situation and its enyeloping
conditions.
He must be shown rather than d.
rected.
Every great political campaign has
become a campaign OF education in
which the mind and not the passions
must be addressed.
Mr.. Hughes has not for many years
been an active figure in politics.
Peculiar conditions made him the
nominee Of his party.
What his position on the great Is
sues of the day shall be, only time
can reveal. What he at present hopes
to accomplish if elected is locked up
in his own breast.
But what those about him, the men
who made him the nominee, propose
to do is easily within popular conjec.
ture.
When We see the old guard OF the
Republican party rallying to him, we
know that its purpose lis to secure
in exchange for privilege the same
old masters who so long maintained it
in power for their advantage.
When we see such men as Crane
of Massachusetts and Lodge OF the
same state, Penrose and Oliver OF
Pennsylvania, Reed Smoot of Utah,
Brandegee of Connecticut, Lippitt of
Rhode Island, Dupont of Delaware.
Gallinger of New Hampshire and Sher-

the same time the old senatorial
cabal at work for self galvanization
and recrudiscence.
We see the proposed return of pri-
vilege to power, of partisanship to
perpetuity, of plutocracy to the saddle.
We see a government that is to be
run in the interest of capital and an
orgie of legislation that BODIES ill for
the millions.
We see tariff legislation that will
put the burden off the shoulders of
the former and upon the backs of
the latter.
We see the bartering of places and
the restoration of the lobby.
We see the European war taken
advantage of for political purposes
and the hazard of bloody deviltry
threatening the peace and honor as
we'll as the prosperity of the ma

We see the Mexican situation held
out as bait to Mexican-American in
vestors in adventurous enterprises in
that misery-ridden country, and the
latter's destiny imperilled by the jingO

it is the same old crowd-disguise

Unless all portents err, the Amer

PRESIDENT WILL GO BEFORE C0NCRESSTO ASK LEGISLATION
 HOPING TO AVERT STRIKE
Republican A. P. Leased Wire)

WASHINGTON, August 28 - President Wilson tonight definitely decided to go before congress in person tomorrow or Wednesday to recommend legislation aimed to avert the threat ened nationwide railroad strike, or stop 1t if it comes before congress can act. He worked until late tonight on his message in which he will tell members of the senate and house the negotiations to date and lay before them definite legislative program.
 The president reached this decision after conferences at the White House with the commit tee of eight railroad presidents and the four brotherhood heads on new proposal for settle ment of differences suggested by the executives and after prolonged discussion of the situation at the capitol with the members of the democratic steering committee of the senate.
 The proposition of the railroad executives was that an investigation of all issues be con ducted by commission to be named by the president, the investigation to last for a period of three or four months, no action to be taken by either side Tn the meantime, and at the conclusion of the inquiry the situation to be what it now is the employees having the choice either of arbitrat- ing or striking. The brotherhood heads promised reply tomorrow and there was every indication 1t would be unfavorable
 When the railroad brotherhood heads went to the White House tonight the president strongly urged the withdrawal of tentative strike order sent out yesterday subject to release calling for Walkout of the 100000 brotherhood members at seven o'clock a. m., Labor Day, September A. This request was flatly refused the leaders say Ing only the committee of 64O which left Wash ngton yesterday, had power to recall the order

VITAL NEED |S AEROP[ANESEOR
 SCOUT SERVICE
Republican 4. p. Leased Wirel

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2S. Com menting today on the big naval game played last week, Rear Admiral Ben son. chief of operations, said the vital lesson demonstrated was the need of aeroplanes for scouting purposes and also the urgent necessity of adding battle and scout cruisers to the fleet.
 Although the aeroplane ship North Carolina participated in the game as scout, none of her hydroaeroplanes was regarded as safe for use. Admi- ral Benson said the problem of find- ing the best type of pontoon for the machines, minimizing the danger on landing. was being given attention by navy experts and the results were to be expressed soon.
 The department is still without in formation as to the part played in the game by Rear Admiral Helms subma- rine flotilla. Admiral Benson de- clared, however, that when the de- partment's plans for establishing sub
 marine bases along both coasts, with fleet of submarines stationed at each, such a result as the red fleet
 under Admiral Mayo theoretically ac- cOmpished would be impossible.
 ] The progressive schedule of Wal i games for the navy contemplated 3
 joint operation with army. It was impossible this year to attempt any
 such maneuver because the army was busy on the Mexican border.

WHEAT PRICES IRE
 SENT TUMbL|NG
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel


 CHICAGO, Aug. 2S.-Abrupt widen ing of the European war zone today sent wheat values tumbling almost as if the market had no bottom. The ex- treme fall in price was 11Ac, an amount virtually parallel to the extra ordinary rise witnessed two years ago on the day that hoStilities began. Transactions were on huge scale.
 It was the view that the end of the war had perhaps been greatly hastened which in the main brought about to- days big drop in quotations. Even the most conservative traders serious ly discussed the chance that by a speedy opening of the Dardanelles vast stores of Russian grain would soon reach western Europe as a re- suit of Rumania having at last joined fortunes with the Anglo-French -al- lies. Word late in the session that actual fighting had already com menced on the Rumanian frontier set the wheat pit here nearly frantic, and was followed by a wild close at the lowest prices of the day, $1.40A to $1.4O 3-4 for September and s1.43 34 to $1.44 3-S for December as against Saturdays finish of respectively $151 S-4 and $1.53 3-4 to s1.54.
 Throughout the day, the increased chances of a general railway strike in the United States added to the ex- citement of wheat traders, and formed a perceptible factor in bringing about the collapse of the market.

Germany Declares War

BERLIN, Aug. 2S. (Via London) = Germany has declared war on Rumania.
 German government circles have ex- pected some action by Rumania for nearly two weeks. It was hoped though that Rumania might reconsider the step taken yesterday.
 It was known that the entente pro- posed using Rumanian territory for a Russian advance against Austria Hun gary and Bulgaria. Rumania, it was argued, would in that event, considering the Rumanian antipathy toward Aus tria Hungary, join the forces fighting the central powers. It is felt here that Rumania can not avoid war with all central powers, should Russian troops advance through her territory.
 Rumania's declaration of war against Austria Hungary was without marked effect on the Bourse today Some war babies" like the stocks of arms and ann munition concerns reacted sharply, but most quotations hardly changed.
 Semi official statements today ex- pressed the belief that the influence on Germany's food problem would not be considerable. Grain contracts for the 1915 crop already have been filled largely and the less on imports of the 1916 crop will not be severely felt in view of Germany's reported excellent home crop,
 Owing to the doubtful attitude of the Rumanian government. the authorities in charge of Germany's food supplies completed their plans some time ago foI feeding the population for the next twelve months without the assistance of Rumania. The grain consumption ot breweries has been reduced to below

WASHINGTON. Aug. 2S.-Many democratic members of congress gath cred at local hotel tonight to hear re- ports on the progress of the presi- dential campaign. The committee heads asked for more speakers for Maine. but otherwise Speaker Clark reminded them that it was essential to maintain a quorum of the house for action on important business to be dis posed of before adjournment.
 Representative Garrett of Ten nessee, referring to the threatened strike, suggested that legislation of the very gravest importance might be inn pending, and that those in charge of the Maine campaign must bear that in mind ir expecting legislators to leave Washington. Representative Williams of Illinois proposed the need of more democratic literature for the German American newspaper readers.
 MT. Mccormick said that the great est problem that confronted the party was getting it's case before the public as war and international affairs had crowded the campaign off the front pages of the newspapers. He told how it was planned to have a rousine democratic start in Maine and ther carry on the fight actively elsewhere concentrating in the doubtful states and not wasting ammunition on tho certain districts.
 there were states in which the demo. crats had right to expect victory. bu which a few years ago were hopeless

Copies of the strike order were brought to the presidents attention after they had gotten into the possess been known that the members of the committee of $40 carried home with them tentative order but not one outside the brotherhood councils had suspected that a date had been set and the president is said to have been greatly perturbed by the information. After the refusal to withdraw the or der he communicated with the rail road presidents who held meeting that lasted until late in the night.
 In spite of the apparent final failure of his efforts to bring the two sides together the president was repre- scented tonight as being still hopeful of averting a strike.
 The legislative program prepared for congress includes the following measure:
 An eight-hour day law for railroad employees so framed as to give the
 railroads time to prepare for it; and, A law patterned after the Canadian industrial disputes act providing for investigation of industrial disputes on railroads by a commission and pro- hibiting strikes or lockouts pending
 the outcome of the investigation. In addition to these measures there are under consideration a resolution to increase the revenues of the railroads in case the expenses are increased and law creating authority for the opera tion of the railroads under the federal government in event of strike. The l plan tonight was to have the first two measures introduced as amendments to
 the bill, which already has passed the
 house, increasing the interstate com
