Tho reported Bale of the steamships Great Northern and Northern Taclfic to the Alaska Steamship Company was emphatically denied today by II. A. Jackson, general traffic manager of the Great Northern Pacifio Steamship Com pany, on authority of l C. Gilman, president of the company. Repeated rumors and dispatches concerning- the prospective sale ot these ships have been circulated for some days past. "It would be ridiculous, to sell these steamships at this time." said Mr. Jack eon, "as the bookinps from San Fran cisco and Lob Angreles to the islands are exceedingly heavy, while the travel from North Coast territory to Bouthern California resorts through San Fran cisco is at its height.

HUGHES WILL ASK PEOPLE Cont!nued From Fimt Pan.) those who through life insurance had endeavored to protect their lives and thciT children against the hazard of untimelv death. We lhad in that a very laborious Inquiry. If brought to my attention a great variety of mat ters deeply affecting the interests of tho community. "We endeavored to safeguard the policyholders of the Nation by wise legislation, regulating our life insur ance enterprise. We endeavored to see to it that public supervision should be entirely impartial and wholly ef ficient in the interest of those con cerned In this great enterprise. "I was called from this to the Gov ernorship of the state. I went with a great deal of information with re spect to the conduct of public busi ness. I went to the Qovernor'a chair with this determination: That while I sat there, there should be no influ ence or power which should in any way affect my action so as to be in the slightest degree injurious to the welfare of all the people of that state." The crowd interrupted with a yell. "Who's all right?" some one shouted. The answer came back from every sec tion of the house in a roar. "Hughes!" Legislation Considered la Opea. "Now I refer to this," Mr. Hughes continued, "because there has been re cently an extraordinary statement made that In some way I have become sponsor for invisible government. Such a pre posterous charge needs no attention, and yet I should like to take advantage of tho fact, that it has been uttered to remind the American people of ono or two things. "In tho first place, during my Gov ernorship at Albany, there was no bar ter of appointments for legislation. "In the next place, legislation was considered upon its merits in tho open. "There waa no semblance of invisible government. You cannot find a roan in New York State who would stand up and honestly say that during my term there was a suggestion of 'any secret or Improper influence with respect to executive action at all times. "At the same time we had legislation dealing with the great subject of the regulation of the public utilities. There were men who did not at that time see the Importance of that action. We thought that it was time to indicate the supremacy of the public interest. We did not buy our way through the Legislature; we 31d not compromise with principle. We went straight to the people of 'the state, and tho people sustained our policies and they were enacted into law, IavUlble laflaeace Roalatetl. "I desire to say to my fellow-citizens that no ono mora than I stands deter minedly against every Influence of tho Invisible government, against every al liance of business and politics, against every subversion of tho machinery of government to any private purpose, against every means of corruption in our public life. "I should, not want to occupy the highest station in the gift of the people except on the terms upon which I shall occupy it if called; and that is that there is no promise or obligation to any man and that we will stand there with visible government according to our constitutional system in the Interest of all tho people of this land." The nominee had Just about concluded his attack on the Administration for tho enactment of the Adamson bill when he waa asked if ho would, repeal the measure if elected. "My dear sir," he replied to tho ques tion, "you cannot repeal a surrender." Tho crowd cheered. "You cannot repeal what has been tone by this abdication of authority," Mr. Hughes continued, "and further, your question shows that you do not fully understand the terms of the Adamson bill. "Under the Adamson bill. It goes Into effect the first of January, then there la a provision that for six months or nine months there shall be observations of its working. Six months is the minor period, nine months ! the maximum pe riod, an then the wagea which are to bo upon this new basis shall continue to bo paid until 80 days after tho report of the commission. "Now, sir, this will have been in oper ation for a very long time before I should even take tho executive chair, if elected, and will have completed Its purpose before Congress would have its session in the following December. "I do not suppose that any question of .repeal woiid bo involved, but I do say that when that question- arises. If it does arise, if I am elected I will .fol low the principle that I now state and have Just stated of ascertaining the exact facts and what justice would, dic tate ought to be done af that time." Mr. Hughes concluded his speech with a reiteration of his denial that a vote for him meant a vote for war and of bis declaration that he was "a man of peace." He left here at 11 P.
