(By Review Leased Wirej

JOPLlN, Mo, Oct. l3.-CnarleS k. Hughes today took his campaign to Missouri, the fourth of the state that skirt the so-called solid south" to be visited on his present trip. Save for one stop, at Springfield, Mo, the en- tire day was spent travelling. The nom- inee reached Joplin tonight and ad dressed an audience, making his chief theme the protective tariff.
 AbnirmaI Prosperity
 MT. Hughes told the crowd that the present prosperity of the country was built on sands and that the intoXicat- ed fancy may indulge happy dreams but the sober thought of the country is directed to the day when the stimu- lant-the European war-would be no longer available. He referred to htose who are seeking to make political cap- ital out of our present war prosperity, portrayed in detail conditions as he viewed them in the United States when the war shall end. and assailed the Democratic tariff policy as poli- cy which means idle plants and inn poverished workmen"
 Coercion vs Reason
 At Springfield and again here to- night, MT. Hughes assailed the admin istration for the enactment of the Adamson law.
 What are real laws?" he asked. Real laws are passed after inquiry with some understanding of the jus tice of the case. with some idea of what is involved, of what ought to be done. am opposed in the interest of labor, to government by holdup and am for government by reason and fair ness.
 Fools Paradise, This
 No thoughtful American can view our present economic condition with out serious apprehension. We are un- der the unhealthy stimulation of the European war. Hopes are raised that cannot be fulfilled. Our present pros perity is built on sand. Our trade is not determined by conditions of nor nal condition but of the abnormal European war.
 The Hungry Market Everything we produce, foodstuffs. metals, manufactured articles of every sort, Europe puts forth her hand for, to fill the void created by her extremi- ty. The resulting employment of lab or on an unprecedented scale and in- creased purchasing power stimulates trade throughout the country. The in- toxicated fancy may indulge in happy dreams but the sober thought of the country is directed to the day when this stimulant will be no longer avail able.
 You cannot have our exports sud denly jump hundreds percent and ig- nOre either the cause or the effect of its removal
 After War-Then What?
 What will be our condition when the war is oyer? In the first place a large amount of labor employed at high wages will lose that employment The demand which it is TOW supply
 
 the manufacture of munitions will make in itself a serious condition in the ranks of labor. When the mil lions of men in the trenches return to production, our exports of manifold products will fall off tremendously even as they have risen tremendously Think of the percentage of the American labor now profitably em- ployed in making Europe's necessities created by the exigencies of war What will occur when these necessi- ties no longer exist? The labor now devoted to that abnormal demand must compete with the labor satisfy ing the normal opportunities of Am erican trade The change will be re- fiected in diminished purchasing price
