Ogden, Utah, Aug. 25.-Charles z.

do all he could if elected to prevent
abuses under a protective tariff. He
declared that the time had come to
protect American business and achieve

Strong Hughes Sentiment

Chicago. ILL.,, Aug. 25. Alvin T.
Hert, manager of the western Repub-
lican national campaign headquarters,
yesterday issued the following state
ment:
Preliminary reports received from
various sections of the Middle and Far
west are most encouraging. We are
in daily receipt of advices from the
chairmen of the different Republican
State central committees. Invariably
thees chairmen advise us in normally
Republican States that the Republican
majority this veal for Hughes and
Fairbanks will be larger than ever.
Throughout the West the harmony
with which the Republicans and for
mer Progressives are working is even
more complete than we had antici-
pated. Reports from the section COW
cred by Mr.. Hughes in his recent west
ern trip are exceptionally

R. K. Hynicka, of Cincinnati. Re-
publican national committeeman from
Ohio, told Manager Hert to-day that
there is complete harmony between
the Republican organization and the
former Progressives in that State and
that Ohio will go for Hughes by an
old-fashioned Republican majority in
November.
w. C. Cook, Republican national
committeeman from South Dakota, re-
ported harmony among the different
factions in that State and said Hughes
Is certain to keep it in the Republican

Kansas would give Hughes and Fair

yesterday in discussing Buckles and
his chances of going higher.
From what l have heard from
baseball scouts and others it is safe
to predict Buckles will figure IN the
major league drafting" Bill said.
Several scouts nave watched him

Coughlin claims Buckles is a likely
looking pitching prospect. He has
the size, has pretty good control, and
he's young" Coughlin said.

class and nationality, she was a rather

somewhat of a philosopher.

before to-day, and then only for a
minut in his fathers office.
Moreover, anyone could see that he
was a nice, gentlemanly chap. Annie
could understand that any woman
would dislike or distrust "old Balm
bridge" yet Agnes had never spoken
in that sharp tone of him-even
though the two girls had discussed
him freely. There was surely some
other reason for that irritated tone

And suddenly the Irish girl hit upon
a solution that she was sure was the
correct one. As soon as she and her
companion had ordered their luncheon
she spoke out her thought.
See here, kid" she said, II guess
that perhaps young Hale's way of
speaking to you has made you feel

and that o n him are in a differ
ent lass. But let me tell you've all
go through that sooner or later. I
suppose it's harder for you than for
most"
What do you mean ?" Agnes asked,
puzzled.
We'll, I'll tell you what I mean"
Annie explained. You're better edu-
Gated than lots of s~tenographers. If
you wasn't you wouldn't hold down
the job of Mr.. Hale's secretary. Yet,
for all that, o feel you aren't on the
same level as his son and his kind are.
You know that now. don't your"
"Of course, l know it," Agnes ad-
mitted. She knew it only too well;
she thought swiftly. But not in the
way that his girl meant.
We'll, even with me it took a good
while for me to swallow the truth
that, just because l have to work for
people, I'm not as good in their eyes
as a rich girl would be. But now |
don't care. Some day I'll get a chance
to marry well, and then I'll marry,
and I'll get a man that can make his
way in the world. and I'll be just as
good as any of those rich swells.
That's what you've got to remem-
Der about yourself-that all this kind
of work you're at now is only for a
while. It's a woman's business to get
married. That's what she vas meant
1or-lo make n nome be a wife
mother. But. until she can do
that, she sometimes has got to sup
port herself. But that don't make her
less of a lady. So don't you go to get
ting that notion in your head.
I'm telling you this for your own
good, for I guess the way that Hale
chap spoke to you Gas if o was as
good as he is himself, you know, which
you are, too) made you remember all
of a Sudden that you're not his social
equal. Well, cut out that stuff! 1t

manders for appointment.
Tho condi1afae uyI4 ko,,

The candidates who have passed the
examinations for volunteer commits
sions are perhaps the most representa-
tive class. drawn a. they are from the
general public" The time and place
for such examinations are left to the
discretion of the secretary of war. In
view of the fact that there would be
a call for hundreds if not thousands
of officers should the call ever go out
for half a million volunteers, the ma
ture of this examination is %arousing a
good deal of interest.
The examinations given to candi-
dates for commissions in the regular
army, however, indicates in what such
an examination would consist. Since
the passage of recently enacted legis-
lation, there has been a chance for the
civilian to obtain a second lieuten-
ancy-the lowest commissioned Off
GERS ranking-in the regular army II
the United States. With the increases
provided for in that force, the pros
poets of the civilian who watts a COM
mission are proportionately brighter,
though at best they are not compar-
able to his chances for obtaining a
similar rank in the volunteers.
The standard source of army officers
is of course the military academy at
West Point. Any vacancies are filled
first from the graduating class of the
academy, and if they occur after a GER
tain date they are held open for the
next years class. After the Military
Academy graduates, preference is CIV
en- to men who rise from the ranks
enlisted men who have qualified for
commissions by passing the specified
mental and physical examinations.
Should there be any vacancies remain
ing after these two classes have been
drawn upon, they are filled from the
lists of civilian candidates who have
passed the prope examinations. Such
candidates, however, must be between
81 and 81 years old, unmarried and
citizens of the United States.
The examination referred to, how
ever, is of interest not only as 1t bears
on the requirements for a commission
in the regular army, but also because
of the light it sheds on the character
of the examination that applicants for
the rank of commissioned officers in
the volunteers are required to pass.
1t shows that the government sets a
high standard for the men who COM
mand its troops. mentally, morally and
physically.
An appointment as second lieuten-
ant is awarded annually to one hon.
or graduate of each of several insti-
tutions designated as distinguished
colleagues" provided that any vacan-
cies exist after the appointment of
West Point graduates and enlistedd
men who have passed their examina-
tons. Such graduates are not requir-
ed to take any mental examination.
Other candidates are given a search
ing mental examination, the general
character of which seems to presup-
pose that the applicant has had at
least a thorough high school training.
and that he stands a better chance of
winning his appointment, if he has
had some college work. for with GER
tain restrictions the selection of off,
GERS from among the successful can
didates is based upon their relative
standing in the examination.

you were wrong, for he brought them

TRY him OUT" Agnes repeated
the word involuntarily.

voice discreetly. II mean you might

enough to see if he's on the square.
You'll soon find out if he isn't, and
