FARMERS WELCOME.
HUGHES ROYALTY
Republican Candidate Makes
Good Impression on Rural
Dakota Voters; = 80 1
BY PERRY ARNOLD.

FARGO, N. D., Aug. 1o.-Charles Evans
Hughes. from the effete East. is out
today to capture the farmer vote. The
Republican nominee got his frst glimpse
Of hickory shirts and the gallus as a
Presidential candidate today.
Fargo gave him a royal welcome.
Farmers from everywhere about came
in their automobiles to hear the former
Justice of the Supreme Court of the
United States expound his doctrines of
Republicanism. ...
Particular interest centered in
Hughes appearance In North Dakota
today because Of the suspicion OF poll
iticians that the O.. o. p. candidate
Is setting out deliberately to kidnap
North Dakota's famous farmers Nom
Partisan League.
Up in the Northwest this farmers
alliance represents a new thing In
politics. According to former Con-
gressman .Manahan, who stumped
North Dakota recently for the league.
Just before II carried the nomination
OF practically all Its candidates In
both old parties at the primaries, the
league will again be successful in the
fall elections SO far as the State ticket
sional politicians from control.
Then. according to Manahan, they
will enact laws for State-owned ele-
|'vators, revision Of the tax laws. mu-
tual insurance against hail and other
progressive plans.
Sponsors for Hughes are hoping that
the Republican candidate will carry
such q convincing message to farmers
in North Dakota tomorrow. that be-
ing already well~organized. they will
swing that strength to the @. o. p,
With such q swing they count on
further farmer strength from other
| States.
Hughes has q busy program today
and tomorrow. Only two set speeche,
were scheduled for today--at Fargo
and Grand Forks-but II was expected
that tho candidate would fnd op.

virile brush the high lights of the big
cafe life in a western mining town
where men live by the sweat of their
brows and guard what they earn by
the quickness of their trigger fingers.
Into this life thmere is suddenly pro-
jected a woman whose knowledge of
the world has not been gained from
bgOoks but who has been immeasur-
ably softened by this great love for
the one man who saw in her beauty
something beside an enchanting toy.
