Mr. Hawley's secretary is back from Washing ton and he will aain pretend that Mr. Ilawley has been of some value to his constituents. Mr. Hughes' campaign managers are claiming that he will receive seventy live percent of the 1 regressive vote. lie may, but to win he will have to get more than that. Out of the difficulty between the United States and Mexico, peace may come; not peace at any price but peace with honor which is much pre ferred to a peace gained by conquest and the sac rifice of many lives.
