S.HOUR LAW BEING DRAGGED
Into National CnmEaign-Dcnlncr
Welcome ISSUE

New York, Sept. 7.-According to
advices from Republican national
headquarters, the attack which
Chas. E. Hughes made on the eight
hour law just enacted by Congress is
merely the opening gun of a fight
which promises to make that legisla-
tion one Of the leading issues OF the
campaign.
VIM. r. Wilcox, chairman Of the
Republican National Committee, Is
expected to make a public statement
soon In which he not only will back
up the Republican Presidential can
didate, but will seek to convince the
voter that the action Of the admins
tration in enacting the law which the
four brotherhoods demanded was
contrary to good public policy and
deserving the censure Of voters at
the polls in November.
Some Of tho Workers Displeased.
Chairman Wilcox held long con-
ference yesterday with f.. H, Hitch
cock, former chairman of the Re-
publican National Committee. and
this matter, 1t was learned later, was
one Of the subjects discussed. It also
was learned, trusted agents here re-
ported, that the railroad workers are
not unanimous in their view of the
new law. These reports indicate
that, while the four brotherhoods are
happy over its enactment the track
men, switchmen, telegraph OPERA
tors, yardmen, station agents, bag
gage men and others view with dis
satisfaction the idea Of some of their
fellow-employees enjoying an eight
hour day while they have to work
ten hours or more.
The Democratic View.
Vance G. Mccormick, chairman Of
the Democratic National Committee,
indicated in an interview yesterday
that the managers of President Will
sons campaign for reelection will
welcome the ISSUE
"Mr. Hughes" the Democratic
chairman said, "runs true to form.
He criticises and attacks everything
that has been accomplished at Wash
ington, but discreetly and designedly
refrafns from telling what he would
have done under similar circum-
stances.
THE Republican candidate didn't
peep during the crisis at Washing
ton when his views might have been
worth while. He maintained
sphinx-like silence, and contributed
no word or thought that might have
been helpful in averting the threat
ened calamity that confronted the
nation. After the Democratic Con-
gress, responding to the wishes of
the people it represents, enacted leg
islation that has averted the calam-
ity, Mr.. Hughes, arriving in Nash
Vile on a freight train, attacks and
criticises the method Of settlement.
but offers no suggestion as to what
he would have done or what else
might have been done to meet the
crisis

his bedside from their homes in sew
eral States, Mr.. J. A. Busbee, of
Clifton, S. c., suburban town near
Spartanburg, followed The advice of
his son and others and took Tanlac.
AS result, he gained 80 pounds in
weight and was strengthened so
much that he was able to walk
around the farm and drive seven
miles to Spartanburg in a buggy, ac-
cord1ng to the statement given on
August 5th by his wife.
Mr.. Busbee took three bottles of
Tanlac, she said, and during the six
months Immediately before he began
to take Tanlac he had been so weak
and Ill with stomach trouble that he
frequently required his EOS assist
ance when turning in / II. Her
statement follows:
MY husband suffered from a
very much rundown and weakened
condition, and from severe form Of
stomach trouble. He had no anne
tite at all, and he wasted away un-
til he was just skin and bones. 1t
seemed that we could get no treat
ment that would permanently i'm
prove him. He had been sick and
unable to do anything for about
three years.
1--WE had to turn him in bed, he
was so weak. He ate only a few
bites a day. Once, before he began
taking Tanlac, he became so low
that we telegraphed for the chill
dren to come at once One son, who
lives at Birmingham, had heard of
the great results that Tanlac had
given sufferers with stomach trouble
and he insisted that his father take
Tanlac as a last resort And he be-
gan to pick up right away after he
began taking it.
"Ele has taken three bottles. It
changed him from a man on the
verge of the grave to much
stronger and happier man. 1t just
worked miracle almost for him. He
gained In every way, and when the
third bottle was gone he had
gained 30 pounds in weight. When
he began taking Tanlac he could not
walk at all, but when he had taken
three bottles he was able to drive
seven miles to Spartanburg in a bug
gy and walk over his farm.
"Tanlac gave him a good appe-
tite and improved his stomach so
much that he began to eat almost
anything and lot of it. Tanlac is
due the credits for this great i'm
provement. | am glad to recommend
It and so Is MIR. Busbee.
Mrs. Busbee gave this statement
because they agreed she could tell
the better just how much improve
