ATTACKS TARIFF LAW
Nominee Gives Five Answers as
to What Sort Of Country Am
orleans Desire
RESPECT IS FIRST
ESSENTIAL HE CLAIMS
Country Must Be Prepared for
Every Emergency In Order to
Protect Itself

New York, Oct. 25.-Charles E.
Hughes tonight told an audience in
the Academy of Music, Brooklyn, why
in his opinion, the young men of the
nation should support the Republican
ticket at the next election. Five chief
reasons were cited in answer to tho
question.
what sort OF country does young
America, vibrant with patriotism, de-.
sire?"
Mr.. Hughes answered the question
in part as follows:
First, he wants country respected
throughout the world. He wants a
country which respects the dignity OF
it's citizenship.
Second, young America must de
sire a country that is prepared for
every emergency.
Third, young America, lookin .
ahead, must desiro that when peace is
once more restored, we shall contrib
ute to it's maintenance by doing our
proper share to secure a practicable
and effective international organiza-
tion in the interest OF peace.
Fourth, young America wants gov
ernment in the open, by visible, consti-
tutional instruments, not by unofficial
authority. He also wants a govern
ment not sectional but truly national.
>" Fifth, young America wants indus
trial preparedness" .a.
Mr.. Hughes declared himself In fav.
or Of a world court for the determina-
ton of judicial controversies through
which we shall have the advantage of
growth of precedents according to the
genius of judicial institutions"
We also need to perfect the machin-
cry Of concilliation with respect to
other controversies, he said, and to
develop International cooperation to
secure resort to these tribunal and
councils.
There is an effort to make it ap-
pear that in some way vote for me
will be a vote for invisible govern
ment," continued Mr.. Hughes. Il am
here talking to my old friends and
neighbors who know the circumstance
ca in which l came into public life,
as we'll as what 1 endeavored to ac-
complish. If l am elected president,
there will be no invisible government.
We shall have no devious or vindict.
i've methods of administration. We
shall have no trading in public Offices
to pay private political obligations.
We shall have no bargains, but con-
stitutional government, government
of laws efficiently administered by the
most, competent men 0btainable."
When the European war ends and
the millions in the trenches return to
work, Mr.. Hughes asserted, America
is likely to have a rude awakening
from it's present dream of prosper
ity." The war. he added, has had the
effect of tariff giving American man.
ufacturers tremendous opportunities
with their natural effect on employ
ment and wages, on industry and
trade.
Mr.. Hughes attacked the Under
wood tariff, saying that after it went
into effect the cost of living went up
up and the opportunity for making a
living went down.

Making Sensational Drive On
Eastern Front
R0UMANIANS GIVE WAY
BEFORE AUSTRO-G GERMANS
Only Bridge Across Danube May

Evacuation of City

London, Oct. 25.-From three points
the Teutonic allies are working with
feverish haste in an attempt to en-
compass Roumania from the north:
eastern and eastern borders of Tran.
sylvania and through Dobrudja.
Keeping up his drive in Dobrudja,
Field Marshal Won Mackensen has
brought his line we'll above the Con.

right wing resting approximately on
Hachaul, near the Black sea, - miles
north Of Constanza. and the left north
of Tchernavoda, whence runs the only
bridge across the Danube in this re-
gion. Whether the Roumanians, in
their excavation of Tchernavoda, left
intact the 14-mile bridge, which would
be OF immense strategic value to tho
Teutonic allies, in a diversion around
Bucharest, has not been made known,
but following military precedent, de-
spite the quickness OF Mackensen's
forward push, it probably was blown
up or otherwise badly damaged.
Roumanians Give Ground.
Further ground on the eastern Tran
sylvania front, on the Roumanian sids

of the Vulcan, and the Predeal passes,
has been given up to the Austro-G

French Forces Stand Firm.
In the region Of Verdun, where the
French Tuesday made their spectac,l.
lar drive over wide front, north and
northeast of Verdun, they are still
holding the ground gained, despite "
cious counter attacks.
In the Austro.Italian theater. the ar.
tillery is doing the greater part Of
of the work along the entire line of
battle. The northern part of the Car.
so plateau is under a heavy lombard

Only minor operations have taken

Germless But Funless.

The way these modern health movements
are slowly asphyxiating the joy of life can
be illustrated no more forcibly than by point
ing to Kansas, where, says the New York
Sun, the new Division of Child Hygiene has
started out to halt the genial childhood prac-
tice of swapping bites in apples, going
''halves" in cores, and drinking out of the
same cup.
In place of these diversions, so conducive
to a closer social union, the bureau is de-
veloping a strange young creature, boy or
girl who is junior health officer, and who
goes around asking associates if they took
their bath last night, washed behind their
ears and stopped putting pencils in their
mouths as ordered. incidentally these young
persons, who in the old, unhealthy days
would have been out somewhere getting ex-
tremely germ laden, now occupy their time
making out reports on the state of the water
supply and the habits of the children in their
classes.
In addition to teaching the rising young
Kansans to keep their nails germless and
manicured and their ears clean, and intro
ducing the daily bath as favorite childhood
delight the new division has organized little
mothers clubs for the girls, many of whom
are destined to spinsterdom, and they are
learning how to be good mothers through
Instruction.

Mules Rights.
From the Louisville Courier.JournaI.

The Kentucky court of appeals, reversing
the judgment of a trial court IN case In
which an employee of coal company was
awarded $500 compensatory damages be-
cause he was kicked by mule, invites at
tention to the fact that mules have rights,
as we'll as temperaments. The decision OF
the highest judicial authority uDon this mat
ter will be welcomed by everyone who is an
advocate of the square deal and more espe-
cially by everyone who has kindly feeling
toward ANIMALS.
The man who demanded damages stood
within reach of the mules heels and struck
him. The mule returned the discourtesy by
payment in kind, and landed the better blow,
proving his possession of the normal temper
ament and efficiency of the breed. The court
of appeals holds that inasmuch as the man
stood within the danger zone and cOurted
danger he should not be allowed to collect
damages from the owner of the mule The
inference plainly left is that the mule was
within his rights when he "histed his hind
quarters" and struck out from the hip in
self-defense. The argument is that when a
mule is put upon he is likely to do his durn-
dest to square up with the man who has
done him an injustice, and that when he does
so he does nothing more than register an
ironshod protest against oppression.
There is a body of settled opinion that
the only way to get along with mule is to
lambast him when he fails to act up to re-
QulremenCS. Inc lQea Is erroneous. "A negro
and mule existing upon terms of comrade-
ship and mutual dependence often get along
amicably until the death of one of the part
ners parts them. If the negro who owns the
mule can get along with him the hired driver
might, by adapting himself to the point of
view of the mule, manage to do without
swearing at him and clubbing him. The
court of appeals, limited to a discussion of
the merits of the case in hand, obliged to
stick to it's mutton, lacked the opportunity
to go into the matter. 1t could, no doubt,
have stated eloquently and convincingly the
case of the mule which suffers hardships as
a result of the hired drivers negligent fail
ure to acquire a working familiarity with
the mental attitude of mules in general and
with the idiosyncracies of n mule or team
of mules in particular, as the basis of AMIGA
BILE relationship.
The mule is everlasting a bearer of far
dels except in Spain, where he still is be-
decked with silver-mounted harness and
draws royal equippages. Even in Spain he
is threatened by the automobile. He soon
will become exclusively heavy draught an
imal and pillow propeller even in the land of
the Dons. He should have a little belated
consideration. He will, no doubt, read the
decision of the court of appeals in spirit
of thankfulness, constituting it as authorita-
tive recognition of his right to drive his calks
into the hide of the driver who stands within
heels reach and strikes him a Furnishing
blow.

"AdS" Never Paid Better.

Never before in the history of advertising
have advertisers obtained better and bigger
returns than now Never before has salts
faction with results been greater and disap-
pointment less.
The reasons are obvious Our newspapers
and periodicals have never before been
cleaner of Objectionable features. Their adj
vertising managers have become imbued
with the spirit of cooperation with the adj
vertiser in his efforts to build up a market.
They feel the responsibility of making the
space they sell profitable for its user. The
public has become inspired with confidence
in the contents of advertising pages and this
confidence is constantly widening.
1t has learned to value advertising and to
read it carefully to look upon it as import
ant market information on buying apportu-
mites. The constant publication of adver-
Using talks by publishers has made deep
impression and convinced that for econom-
ical reasons perusal of advertising pages
is as important as the reading of news, edi-
torials and general literature.
Advertisers have also learned to place
their propositions before the public in at
tractive and influencing ways. They refrain
from buncombe and aowery language, and
confine themselves to facts and good selling
arguments. The advertising, both of local
and national character, breathes sincerity
and a desire to serve and not to exploit
It aims to give satisfaction and create last
ing patronage. 1t is conducted from the
viewpoint to secure and hold good will. 1t
is the atmosphere of truthfulness and the
square deal that is making advertising profit
able for all-those who have to sell and
those who have to buy 1t is this spirit that
cannot fail to produce more advertising for
the publisher, more business for the adver-
tiser and more and more reliance of the
public in advertised propositions.
