Scores Democratic Party
For Failure to Reduce
High Cost Of Living.
CAN'T BE DONE
UNDER FREE TRADE
Candidate Declares Chance Of Labor-
ing Man to Make Living Was in
Reality Redueed-Extraordinary Re.
suits Thru Inauguration Of Demo.
cratic Principles -'Rsvenue Tariff
Fails to Produce Revenue.

:. Hudson, N. T., Nov. 3.--In his speech
here today Charles E. Hughes made
the tariff his chief theme and assailed
the democratic party for its failure to
reduce the high cost Of living.
II think they were just as eloquent
in promises four years ago as they are
today" Mr.. Hughes said, 'as I look
back to the statements they made with
respect to what was going to be done
for labor. They promised an entirely
new condition in which labor would
profit to the utmost and American bus
mess would get an extraordinary in
centive.
They told us, for example, that
there was the high cost Of living. Well.
we all know that. We have an inti-
mate knowledge of that fact, But
what is more to the point they told us
they were going to reduce it. Well.
thru division In our ranks, which
am glad to say has been happily heal
ed, they had a chance to show what
they could do with this high cost ot
living. That robust companion, how
ever, has becom1 more and more ro-
bust and 1t is mounting higher and
higher ,and when we consider this
promise in relation to present prom
ises we wonder whether they are go
ing to DO any better with respect to
the future.
What Really Happened. +
while they did not reduce. theecost
Of living. they were eminently success
ful in reducing the chances Of making
q living. They did not promise that:
they promised quite the contrary. They
had . wonderful program; they were
going to reduce the cost Of living;
they were going to provide for the ex.
penses Of the government thru theil
tarin system: they were going to in.
crease the opportunities for business
and they were going to have AmericAI
enterprise, as they said. take on new
size and speed. 8r
We'll, they put their principles ii
force. They had not had chance to
do It for q great many years. They
proceeded with extraordinary results
In the first place they had tariff foI
revenue only. but it did mot produce
revenue. We had falling of in rev-
enue, thru tariff for revenue, and We
had great increase in imports. They
had to pass what is called q war rev.
enue bill to take care Of the ded1cit,
which was the result OF their fiscal
policy.
Then they said they were going to
have American enterprise take ON a
new size and speed, and it did, a much
reduced size and a. much slower speed.
The opportunities OF labor vanished or
were greatly reduced. and we had a
very extraordinary condition in this
country" Z

propositions is impossible" The Globe explains thus how it's scheme would work in practise:
 "The baker would get nothing for his bread, and the butcher nothing for his meat, but on the other hand, the one would have nothing to pay for his flour, the other nothing for his beasts. There is no lack of cOmmodi- ties.
 "There are enough houses to live in. enough of all the necessarics of life, and provided the baker butcher and all the rest continue to work as before, neither they nor anyone else would be either worse or better off, except in being unable, for the time being, to put aside profits"
 Otherwise, the Globe contends the conscripts must suffer, in comparison with those who are able to remain at home and continue making money.

CT of the sentence read: "Unless by some strange atmospheric phenomen- on we get long spell of fine, dry weather before that time"
 True to Teutonic traditions of pre- paredness, as early as December the Germans began bringing up material for use in the attack. Every available big howitzer, including the 3O5s and the 42Os, was hauled to the Verdun sector through which the Crown Prince hoped to make a breach and commence a march on Paris down the historic poplar lined roads following the banks of the Marne. Trenches were dug, ammunition in vast quantities was stored at strategic points and everything put in ship shape for springing the big offensive.
 Then the January sun came out. Rarest of all rarities in France, mid-winter dry spell came accOmpani- ed by lots of spring like days and sun shine. From January 15 until past the middle of February one would have thought May at hand. The strange atmospheric phenomenon" had come to pass, and the decision to let fly was the result. According to German prisoners they had been told on the eve of the battle;
 "The artillery is going to blaze the way for you. It will do it's work so completely that all you will have to do will be to march at parade step in- to Verdun."
 They were told, they said, that the fighting would not amount to much and it would all be over in no time.
 Judging from what the German soldiers admit, the Crown Princes plans must have included a swift punch and a quick victory, with Yer dun and outlying forts, as a minimum in German possession. Otherwise, experts are agreed, probably he never would have undertaken the Verdun attack. For, to plan long drawn out operations in which artillery is the mainstay, said operations to be large ly dependent upon the foibles of the weather, is more stupid than fool hardy.
