ML HUGHES TO BE OUR PRESIDENT NEXT MARCH Republicans of Whole Country Asked Him to be President-Progressives Will Endorse Him.

We believe Mr. Hughe I the f!rat man to receive a nomination for preldent without even nlgnlfylng that he would accept It If tendered. The people knew Mr Hughes and knew that when they aaked him to be their president that he would not desert them, but would do hi duty.
