WAR AFFECTS OLD GLORY.
Costs More to Buy American Flag
Now Than Formerly.

1t costs more to be patriotic by buy
ing an American flag now than 1t did
before the war began IN Europe. Sc
cording to statements made by nag
dealers in Washington today. -
The scarcity of wool and dyes, a. well
as their increased cost, added to recent
increases in the price Of labor at cot
ton mills, has caused a jump in the
prices Of "Old Glory" Wool bunting
was formerly the principal material Of
which The Stars and Stripes" were
manufactured. but 1t has fallen into
disuse because Of the increased cost of
wool Cotton has supplanted wool
bunting to considerable extent for
this purpose, and cotton is jumping
higher In price every day.
Laborers and skilled operatives at
cotton and woo1en mills have found
higher wages at munition plants. and
the mills have recently increased wages
twice, once by a raise of 10 per cent
and again by a raise of 20 per cent.

By the Associated Press.
HARTFORD, Conn, October 26.-
Charles E. Hughes today went into
what he termed "the home stretch OF
the campaign. with the opening speech
here today Of his last trip before cleo
ton day. He left New York this morn
ing for New England. The nominee,
In a theater. spoke before an audience
composed partly Of workers In NUM-
tion plants nearby.
This Is no time for complacency,
he said.
This Is no time for political talk
about prosperity. 1t is a time fof
thought. When the men now In the
trenches of Europe are withdrawn to
follow the pursuits of peace. the alb
normal stimulus of the war will be
withdrawn, and the men in this country
now engaged in satisfying the demands
of Europe at war will no longer have
that demand to satisfy.
ut Is a new Europe we will have to
meet, a disciplined. organized Europe,
and we should meet it with new
United States. And you can no more
run this country in the coming years
on the tariff principle of our opponents
than you can fly to the MOON
Mr.. Hughes alluded also to the Adam
son bill.
Deprecates Class Antagonism-
'1 deprecate every effort to arouse
class antagonism in this country" he
said. There is no hope for an Amer
lea embittered by class antagonism.
You can engulf US in the most serious
social disturbances that way. It takes
no wit to develop a feeling of bitter
ness It only requires thoughtless
thought and the application Of force
instead Of following the rule Of rea-
SON.
The nominee declared that co-opera-
ton also was necessary between capt.
tai and labor for industrial stability.
There are no isles of safety in Ameri-
can life," he said in asserting that the
time had passed when men could" build
little citadels along the highways OF
commerce"
Mr.. Hughes spoke also for the main
tenance of American rights.
"It is said that a vote for me is a
vote for war" he said, TT is said that
the alternative of the administration S
policy is war. A vote for me is a vote
for maintaining our lasting peace and
security by our self-respect and the

HoTcHKIss LOSES TO DELTA;
OUR BOYS LEAD THE SLOPE

Hotchkiss came over Sunday and
played Delta, losing to our boys by a
score of to 1.
The weather, while not as hot as
some of our famous May-days, proved
to be very acceptable for the occasion.
The attendance was over the 500 mark
composed mostly of Delta fans, al
though, there were a considerable
sprinkling accompanied the Hotch-
kiss rooters.
Hotchkiss gave our boys very good
game, but we're lacking in field work,
which cost the visitors several runs.
Smith, for the visitors pitched a clean
game, striking out at that, five of our
famous hitters.
Luby was in the box for Delta, and
while it was not necessary to do his
level best, yet at no time did he worry
about the final outcome. Just as sure
as Hotchkiss would fill the bases and
be in hopes of running in a score or
two, something disastrous would hap
pen to the visitors.
Ross, Hotchkiss' catcher, is a an

wins knows they have played ball
when the contest is over.

Delta, with the exception of the last
