Democratic Claims
of Hughes Slump"
Cenfered in Hopes

New York, Oct. 81. - There Is no
Hughes slump now and there has
never been any Hughes slump.
The great lead taken by the Re-
publican Party in Maine and all the
States where primaries have been held
has not been overcome even partially
by the Democrats. The latter in their
prediction are counting. upon carry
ing Illinois and Ohio. They will not
carry either.
They admit the loss of New York
State, which makes it difficult for them
to figure how they are going to win,
and in their present strained calcula-
uons they find it necessary to count
In their column States which almost
certainly will so Republican.
One day in New York City will con-
vince anyone that New York is safely
in the Republican column. 1t is not
necessary to go to Republican head
quarters to learn this. 1t can be
learned just as easily around Demo-
cratic headquarters.
In other words, the Democrats ad-
NIT that so far as President Wilson is
concerned New York is "a gone goose -
among themselves, admit that it is
stretching it pretty far to claim Illinois.
TAFT ASSAILS GOMPERS
st. Louis, Oct. 27.-Former Presi-
dent Taft, speaking at st. Louis last
night. accused Samuel Gompers,
president of the American Federation
of Labor, of misleading labor with
reference to the Danbury hatters' case
and of shifting to the shoulders of
others the responsibilities created as
the result of his counsel. He said:
Mr.. Gompers is not the man to ad-
wise worktngmen on this subject. He
encouraged the defendants to do what
they did. He advised them to violate
the law; he advised them to incur
heavy expenses. He induced them to
pledge their property to pay the large
judgment on the promise that the AM
erican Federation of Labor would hold
them harmless"
