Mr.. Hughes Gives His
Conception of Presidency

In lengthy statement issued yes
terday by Republican National head
quarters, Charles Evans Hughes gives
his conception of the Presidency. He
said in part:
My conception of the Presidency
differs absolutely from that of Mr..
Wilson. l look upon the President
as the administrative head of the
Government He looks upon the
President primarily as the political
leader and lawmaker of the nation.
mo man is more determined than
TO maintain, the peace which the
United States, Spain, Sweden, Nor
way and all the American republics
now enjoy. But 1 should seek to
maintain that peace by a firm and
courteous insistence on the rights of
our citizens at home and abroad.
There confronts labor in the next
four years condition more serious
than any that American laboring
men have been called upon to face.
If we are to save our laboring men
from a catastrophe we must plan a
tariff protection along sound, just and
economic lines. To this endeavor /
pledge myself and the men who are
TO be my colleagues"

Democratic "War Horse"
Deserts Nominees For HUGHES

Newark, n. J., Oct. 80. Colonel
e. L. Price, formerly chairman of the
Democratic State Committee, and for
years one of the best-known Demo-
cratic leaders in the State, came out
yesterday with a vigorous denuncia-
tion of President Wilson and his
policies, declaring that he would cast
his ballot for Mr.. Hughes. He also
enters strong objection to II. Otto
Wittpenn, Democratic candidate for
Governor, on the ground that he is
part and parcel of Wilson's outfit"
The Colonel declares he will throw
his support to the Republican candi-
date Senator Walter E. Edge.
Colonel Price has been called the
war horse of Democracy" In addi-
ton to the Craftsmanship of the State
Committee, which he held for three
years. he was fourteen years chair
man of the Essex County Democratic
Committee and was city counsel of
Newark over six years, besides serv-
ing in n number of other positions as
counsel and as leader of Democratic
organizations. He is a grandson of a
Revolutionary veteran, and, as he
himself says, always has been a true
Democrat, at all times and under all
circumstances"

Overwhelming Landslide
For Hughes Is Shown by :.
Study of StraW Vote

Here is the result of the straw vote
being taken by the New York Herald.
In taking that vote, the Herald ask
ed the participants not only to indi-
cate their preferences as between
Hughges and Wilson, but also to state
how they voted in 1912-whether for
Taft, Roosevelt or Wilson.
An analysis of this vote, and an
application of it's percentages to the
total vote cast in those States for Will
son in 1912, and the total vote cast for
Taft and Roosevelt. who divided the
Republican strength between them,
indicates a landslide for Charles
Evans Hughes, even in States which
the Democrats either have claimed
for themselves, or have held to be in
the doubtful column.
Twenty-three States are included
in the straw vote table. Not only does
the analysis of the sentiment shown
indicate overwh Ginning victory for the
Republican candidate, but an advance
of more than 100000 in the Repub-
lican majority for 1916 over the COM
bined pluralities of Taft and Roosevelt
in 1912.

from the meeting hall, was stalled on
the tracks. The train, coming slowly
around a sharp curve and hidden by
high retaining wall, showed its loco
motive within a dozen feet of the
crossing before it was stopped. There
was intense excitement.
While Mr.. Hughes was delivering
his address the heavy campaign train
was shunted about so that the tracks
might be clear for other traffic. AS
the long line of automobiles began
TO move after the speech the special
headed slowly for the station. The
chauffeur stopped at the intersection
of the street and track so that Mr..
and Mrs. Hughes might get out. Sud
denly the locomotive pushed it's way
around the curve. There were fright
ened cries, and men, tearing off their
coats, waved them as warning to
the engineer. The chauffeur of the
Hughes car worked frantically to back
out of danger.
Fifty men in the crowd, regardless
OF personal danger, bent their should
ers to the task of pushing the auto
mobile from the tracks and the en-
gineer of the train jammed on the
brakes. He got the train under con-
troll with twelve feet to spare.
During the excitement Mr.. and Mrs.
Hughes sat quietly in the closed car,
making no effort to get out. When
the excitement was over Mr.. Hughes
shook hands with the chauffeur and
told him not to worry about the Incl
dent. The crowd cheered.

and the aggregate of the electoral

is much greater than the aggregate of
the electoral votes of the sure Demo-
cratic States.
G. o. p. Ills Democrats Chance
1T is only when the Republican
party Is suffering from some unto
ward circumstances, such as oper-
ated against it four years ago, that
the Democrats have any chance to
win a National election in this coun-
try. The trouble with the Democratic
managers in their eXtravagant claims
for victory this year is that they are
still thinking and talking in terms of
1912, whereas this is 1916. The Re-
publicans are acting together this
year and they very much outnumber
the other fellows.
ut is perfectly obvious that Mr..
Mccormick and his colleagues in put
ting out their extraordinary claims
figure the States which gave their
electoral vote to Wilson in 1912 as
Democratic. But the fact is that there
were no more Democratic States in
1912 than usual
"Mr. Wilson carried only fourteen
States four years ago = the same old
solid South and nothing more. They
We're: Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas,
Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana,
Mississippi, North Carolina, oklahoma
South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and
Virginia. Those are the only States
in which Mr.. Wilson secured the ma
Jority of the popular vote, and it is
only those States which he can be said
to have carried. Every other State
in the Union voted against him.
Mr.. Roosevelt secured the electoral
vote for six States, California, Michi-
gan. Minnesota, Pennsylvania, South
Dakota and Washington, and Mr..
Taft two States, Utah and Vermont.
The remaining twenty-six States gave
their electoral votes to Wilson, but in
each case by n minority vote, in each
case against the expressed preference
of the majority of those who voted
''The electoral vote of these twenty
six States aggregates 2S1, or more
than majority of the Electoral Col
lege. These States alone, all of which
voted against Wilson four years ago,

Knox, at Old Home Town,
Says Country Is at War
With Mexico; Hits New Law

Uniontown. Pa, Oct. 80. - The
greatest political meeting ever held
in Fayette county was addressed here
Saturday night by Philander Chase
Knox, who came to his native county
and attacked the Wilson administra-
ton and the slogan that Wilson has
kept us out of war"
Other speakers were Congressman
Thomas Crago and Robert L. Hop
wood. State Chairman Crow pre-
sided over the meeting in the West
End Theater A red-fire parade of
ceded the speaking.
Mr.. Knox said:
'One of the claims that. the Demo-
cratic party is advancing in this cam
paign is that Wilson kept us out of
war; 1t is only fair and right for us
to inquire what war?' What nation
has sought war with the United States
during the last three years? Was it
France, or Great Britain, or Germany,
or any of the belligerents engaged in
the great European conflict? Every
one who reads knows that all of these
warning powers of Europe have been
cultivating our friendship and have
spent millions of dollars in q propa-
ganda to promote q good feeling with
us.
When we analyze the Democratic
slogan we find there is no basis what
ever for this claim. AS matter of
fact Wilson has not kept us out of
war. According to the decision of
the judge advocate general of the
army, General Crowder, made but a
few days ago, we are now in a state

pitiful war. waged agalr5- a helpless
nation, one unable to defend herself
1t was only because of Mexicos in
ability to resent the acts of war com.
mitted against her that we have not
been engaged in a general war with
that country during the last three
years.
There are two legislative acts upon
which the Democracy is basng it's
claims to the vote of the people. One
is the Adamson law, misnamed the
eight-hour law and the other is the
child labor law. Not only is it our
privilege, but it is our duty, to scru-
tinize these acts carefully in order
that we may not be misled or deceived
as to their true meaning.
Upon previous occasions I have re-
ferred to these two legislative acts as
the gold brick twins of deception, and
the more critically l examine them,
the more | am impressed with the
accuracy of this description. They
are not what their titles indicate them
to be. 1t is evident they were in

they are glaring examples of sham
and deceit"
