[feat part the work of Representa-
tive William Hughes. These rules are
not perfect, because nothing in human
life is perfect, but the change was a
change in the direction which the
great public mind of the country
wanted.
Senator Hughes went to work in a
siIk mill in Paterson at an age when
most boys and girls are only leaving
the grammar school.
Working in the daytime and study
ing in the evening and in his other
spare time, Senator Hughes achieved
an education superior to that obtained
by many persons who pass through all
the grades of grammar school, prepar-
atory school and college.
When the wal with Spain broke out
Senator Hughes was n of the first to
offer his services to his country, dis
tin~guishing himself as a soldier when
ever opportunity offered. He returned
to civilian life at the close of the war
and Immediately took up the study OF
law. HIS attachments as a lawyer
were great and were recognized not
only by his fellow members Of bar as
sociations, but by the governor of his
native state and by all his fellow citi-
zens who knew him.
l will not dwell on the number Of
times or the manner in which he was
elected to this house or to the equally
emphatic way in which he was recog-
nized by the citizens of the state OF
New Jersey and elevated to become a
member of the United States senate.
j will only tote the fact that time and
time again in a constituency conceded
to be strongly Republican he was so
able to teach and to exemplify the
principles of the true democracy which
he understood and believed in that he
was elected by the votes of citizens
who by the ordinary rules of the parti-
san game would have been understood
as opposed to him.
Cut off in the prime of his life at a
time when it seemed that he had a
long and useful career before him, at
a time also when, l believe, he cher
ished more closely than at any other
Ilme III MS career tHc LiiUuShl L u
voting the remainder of his life to his
family and to their interests, there can
be no doubt that he gave his life as
truly and as fully to the service Of his
country as many Of the boys who have
just died on the battleields of Europe.
AS one who knew him well and loved
him well I desire to say again that the
life of William Hughes was n of sac
rifce for Ideals which he cherished
and revered and in which he believed
so earnestly that he was willing to pay
the ultimate price of those who claim
that a man does not believe in a thing
till he is willing to die for it. Senator
Hughes lived for his country and died
for his country.

Secretary Lane has said:
at takes a brave and a very am.
bilious man TO lift himself out of
such an environment. Easily he
becomes q victim to the shrewd,
predatory padrone or boss. He falls
into debt and becomes mortgsged
to ignorance and squalor for years.
His ideal of America has suffered
a change. "And is this freedom ?"
he says to himself, as with a tired
back he bends to his work, without
hope that the burden will be lighter
tomorrow. He can not read the
signs which warn him of danger.
He can not read of the opportunities
which city and country offer. In
his W land perhaps he had no
chance to learn III his own tongue.
In this new land he is too tired, too
hesitant to learn this strange, diff
cult tongue. Is it any wonder If to
this dissatisfied stranger the voice
of Que who speaks to him in the
language of home has authority and
carries far? And if this voice
breaches discomfort, as the one sure
path to better days, is it strange
that he should listen7 Who are
the men who master this new
world? Plainly the D he knows,
from whom he has suffered. Do
these same men control everything;
are there no sweet places of refuge?
He can find no one to make him
see the greater America. The
whole of this continent is to him
the cramped apartment, the dirty
street, and the sweatshop or the
factory. To the sweep of the great
land and it's many beckonings his
eyes are closed. And in his isola-

ment there is fruitful nesting place

LIFE and SERVICES OF
SENATOR VIM. HUGHES
Congressman Thomas ]. SculIy
Delivers a Touching EulOgy in
House of Representatives.

Washington, d. c., Feb. 23.-Hon.
Thomas ]. Scully delivered today In
the House of Representatives an elo-
quent and affecting eulogy on the life
and public services Of his distinguished
friend, the late Senator William
Hughes of New Jersey. Congressman
Scully spoke as follows:
Mr.. Speaker-The depth of the re-
greet which / feel for the death Of my
friend, Senator William Hughes, is
greater perhaps, at least in some re-
spects and for certain special reasons.
than that of any other member Of this
house.
1t was In my home that Senator
Hughes became i'll on what proved to
be his last sickness. The attack came
upon him suddenly when he was ap-
parently in the full vigor of lusty
health. From that first blow he never
completely rallied. He made a brave
fight for life, but his task here was
completed, and death claimed him at
last. When he died 1 suffered not only
a great personal loss, but it seemed to
me also that something Of what service
to my country at the national capital
had meant to me had passed away
with him. And there was a reason for
this.
When / came to Washington as the
representative from the Third Con-
gress district of New Jersey, Repre-
sentative William Hughes vas n of.
the first men to greet and welcome me.
He had had experience in Washington
and knew legislative Washington as
only a small proportion of our mem
bers v G know it. / cannot help feel
ing that the flow of the Democratic
tide, which was at its height when l
first came to Washington and as a re-
suit of which the control of the legis-.
lative and later of the executive
branches of the government passed to
the Democrats, was one of the great
historic movements In the history OF
the development Of the law and insti-
tutions of the United States.
At such epochs big men rise to the
surface and because of their gifts of
leadership and native energy and phys
ical and mental vigor are forced into
the vanguard.
Coming to Washington, a. so many
members did at that time, fresh from
contact with the people and dominated
by the Impulse of a splendid idealism,
they sought to signalize the change in
control of the house by reforming its
procedure so as to make it more truly
democratic and more fully responsive

He began by saying that he had
waited five years until the people had
become calm and could fairly consid-
CT what he had to say.
He then asked what would Georgia
reply if the Poles demanded by what

tested when a Jew was convicted in
her courts on the testimony of per-
jured criminal and in trial that was
as unfair as ever stained the annals
of Russia.
And further the district attorney
declared what would be. our respon-
ses when this Jew was taken from
prison walls and murdered by mob.
not one of whom has been punished"
Mr.. Alexander concluded by urging
that "the real murderer of Mary Pha-
gan" be duly tried and sentenced for
the crime.
1t was understood that Mr.. Alex
ander referred to the negro Conley,
whose career since the Frank trial has
been on of continual crime, and he is
now under twenty-year sentence for
midnight burglary. 1t was stated by
the police that Conley was the head of
an organized gang of burglars, plan
ned the robberies, sold the loot and
divided the proceeds.
1t is known that Mr.. Alexander
made a thorough study of the evil
dence in the Leo Frank case and he
was strongly of the opinion that he
was innocent. The case, it will be re
called, attracted national attention
and for some time afterward was an
issue in local, county and state poll
/ tics.
The fact that Mr.. Alexander is a
lawyer of prominence and is the pros
ecuting attorney for the government
gives unusual weight to any state
ment he may make and revives a sub
ject which was at one time discussed
from one end of the country to the
other.
