No mans personality means as much
to the people of this country as that of
their president, that is why the char
acter Of Charles Z. Hughes is Of such
grave Importance to the American peo-
pie. Hughes, vouch those who best
know him, is a man cast in the mould
Of Lincoln, imbued with the spirit of
self-sacrifce which made us a nation
and which is necessary to maintain the
nations high standard. In New York
he is called "the peoples lawyer.
AS governor of that state he demanded
and enforced efficiency in office, and
his administration proved to be one
free from faint of bossism or of seryi-
tude to any private interest. The his
tory and labors Of Hughes life are So
plain, so vivid, that we question the
honesty of purpose, Of loyalty between
man and man of those supposedly in.
tel.IGent Democrats who indulge ir
saying Roosevelt will be the dictator
of affairs if Hughes is elected.

THE wisest statesman Of our country
from It's foundation reasoned and con-
tended that protection and competition
must go hand in hand. In other words,
il there were no competition, there is
no need Of protection. But the men
who argued thus were outspoken pro-
tectionists, believing it is the surest
means Of insuring prosperity, indepen-
dence, happiness to the laboring mass
es. Hence they were of necessity
staunch advocates Of competition, and
would beyond doubt rise in their might
to choke to death all trusts, combines,
etc, as now prevail, for the purpose OF
raising prices on the necessaries OF
life that few may become millionares
