WOMEN TO TAKE ACTION
Strong Support of Mr. Hughes by
Former Democrats Shown by
'; Reports "by Head of Na
; tional Hughes Alliance.
NEW YORK Oct. 19. (Special.)
Sharp ' critlclara of Secretary of War
Baker for likening' the soldiers under
Washington to Mexican bandits was
received today from members of wom
en's patriotic organizations all over the
country. Many telegrams expressing
Indignation have been received at the
headquarters of such organizations
here. The council of the Daughters of
the Revolution is to meet on Novem
ber 2 and it is announced that formal
action will be taken at that meeting
and that leaflets condemning the un
patriotic and baseless criticism of the
heroes of "76 by Secretary Baker will
be sent to every member of the or
ganization. Determination to take similar action
Is announced by representatives of the
Daughters of the Union, the Daughters
of 1812 and of several chapters of ftie
Daughters of the American Revolution,
as well as by the Woman's Relief Corps,
an auxiliary of the Grand Army of the
Republic.
Charges Labeled Disloyal.
"Untrue." "disloyal" and "senseless"
were the terms most frequently em
ployed by the officials of woman's or
ganizations in discussing Secretary
Baker's statement.
Strong support of former Democrats
for Governor Hughes is emphasized by
the following telegrams sent today by
W. Cameron Forbes, president of the
National Hughes Alliance, to Charles
Evans Hughes, the Republican nominee
for President:
"The National Hughes Alliance now
organized and operating1 in 31 states,
takes pleasure in submitting 'a report.
We have an enrollment In every state
in the Union, increasing dally. .A can
vass of this enrollment on the basis of
the 1912 vote for President shows the
strong support we are receiving from
men of all parties.
"The figures to date show that 4.1
per cent of those now enrolling at the
Hughes Alliance voted in 1912 for Mr.
Taft, 4 2.6 per cent for Mr. Roosevelt,
and 11.3 per cent for Wilson.
Figures Are Significant.
"The high percentage of 1912 Wilson
supporters who now support you Is par
ticularly significant. Here are a few
striking examples: In California 28 per
cent of our enrolled members voted in
1912 for Wilson; in Connecticut. 15.3
per cent; Maryland, 24.3 per cent: Min
nesota. 17.7 per cent; Nebraska, 13 per
cent; New Jersey. 15 per cent; Okla
homa, 18 per cent; OregonjSO per cent;
Texas, 23 per cent; Wisconsin 25 per
cent.
"Four years ago the opposition of Mr.
Wilson was divided. We congratulate
you on the clear evidence that you have
persuaded patriotic Democrats and In
dependents that the issues this year go
far beyond the lines of party."
WHISKY SHIPPER INDICTED
Federal Grand Jury Finds Bill
Against San Francisco House.

SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. 19. (Special.)
The first indictment in this city for
the alleged offense of shipping whisky
into dry territory was returned today
by the Federal grand Jury against the
Weil-Weisbaum Company. Two barrels
of whisky, according to the true bill,
were shipped by the firm to Pendleton,
Or., in boxes labeled "household goods."
The technical charge Is shipment of
liquor from one state to another under
a name other than that known to the
trade.
Three San Francisco firms have been
Indicted in Oregon and Arizona for the
offense in the last six months.

day. Angered because the male population
of the town had fled to prevent being
impressed into his service. Villa or

his men to commit atrocities on the de
fenseless inhabitants.
Larceny Charge Is Made.

was arrested last night at Second and
Main streets by Detectives Goltz and
Howell, and booked at the station on
a charge of larceny in connection with
the robbery of the home of F. H.

body, while all around them swept a
6wirllng. angry mob. Men in the crowd
urged the women to "get the banners"
and "smash the suffragists," both of
which were done effectively.
A riot call was sent in, but the police
could do little beyond rescuing the dis
heveled suffragists, who were sorry
looking spectacles.
Reflection Comforts VnnqulMhed.
One of the suffragists who came out
of the fray with fragments of her cloth
ing clinging to her bruised form, her
face scratched, hair torn down and hat
missing, comforted herself with this re
flection: "At any rate, we fare better
than American women In Mexico under
the Wilson policy."
The riot has caused bitter comment.
It is. recalled that when Mr. Hughes
was here and also when the Women's
Hughes special train arrived here.
Democratic women lined the station and
the walks and paraded In front of the
hotel, carrying banners denouncing
Hughes and all he stands for. The
cabs and tenders of the engines which
brought, in and took out the women's
train and the Hughes train, were
chalked all over with messages de
nouncing Hughes and lauding Presi
dent Wilson. but the Republicans
accepted tnis wariare as part of the
game and made no demonstration. It
is argued by the champions of fair play
that the suffragists, who were saying
nothing, should have been permitted to
display their banners without being
made the victims of a vulgar mob.
Police Accused of Neglect.
Charges that the police sympathized
with the rioters and failed to protect
the demonstrators were made by Mrs.
Josephine Pearce and Mrs. H. Li. Mat-
tice, officials of locat woman Republi
can clubs.
"There were all kinds of policemen
standing about merely looking on, not
moving a hand," said Mrs. Pearce.
faome of them didn't seem" to want to
help us. I saw policemen deliberately
stand nearby and laugh at us while we
were being beaten and the banners torn
from our hands.
"We were merely standing, quietly
holding our. banners and not harming
anyone. - Suddenly there was a regular
riot. They grabbed our banners.
trampled on them and knocked us
down."
Members of the Congressional Union
compared the scene at the demonstra
tion with the suffrage parade in Wash
Ington the day before President Wilson
was inaugurated.
"The disgraceful attack upon the
suffrage demonstration is similar to
the attack by mobs upon the great suf
frage parade. Mr. Wilson is unfortu
nate that he runs the riek of going out
or office to the "ame tune by which
he entered, said Mrs. A. R. Colvin,
Minnesota state chairman of the Con
gressional Union.
Attack Laid to Democrats.
Miss Alice Paul. National chairman
of the Congressional Union, character
ized it aa an attack by Democrats.
"The violent attack by Democrats upon
the demonstration shows the serious
ness with which they take our cam
paign," she said. "Evidently they feel
Keenly the weakness of President Wil
uon'a suffrage position when they re
sort to such violence to prevent his
hostility to National woman sutfraee
from being revealed to the people of
Cnlcago.
Mrs. Wilson accompanied the Presi
dent. Dressed in black and wearing a
large bouquet of orchids and violets,
she drew almost as much applause as
the President.
Between his speeches to th women
and his night address, the President
went to the Western Democratic head
quarters and for the first time ob
served the details of the machinery
used In an effort to re-elect him. Sen
ator Walsh, chairman of the headquar
ters, and Senator Saulsbury, of Dela
ware, showed him Just how the cam
paign was being carried on and then
the President and Mrs. Wilson stood
a half hour shaking hands with all
the headquarters workers, including
the stenographers and mailing clerks.
At the meeting of women the Presi
dent was introduced by Mrs. Ella Flagg
ioung, rormer superintendent of Chi
cago's schools, who declared he had
kept the United States honorably at
peace. Miss Jane Addams occupied a
seat In a box.
New Citizens Addressed.
When the President entered the hall
tonight to address a New Citizens' Al
legiance meeting the audience stood
and cheered. The Stockyards Pavilion,
where the meeting was held, was dec
orated with American flags and packed
with people. Judge Clarence M. Good
win presided. Governor Dunne, of Illi
nois, spoke for "America first."
I come here tonight to address those
who have newly sworn allegiance to
the United States," said the President.
But I realize that I cannot do It with
out speaking to my own conscience and
to the conscience of the other people
of the Nation." lie pointed out that the
new citizens had chosen their new
allegiance. "Within the last few
months, be added, "some distinctions
have been drawn. A man or a woman
who becomes a citizen of the United
States is not expected to give up his
or her love for the country of their
birth.
"But people who come to this coun
try are expected to put their new al
legiance above every other allegiance.
It puts an obligation on him."
He said the men lost at Vera Cruz
were drawn from four different stocks.
"I like to think that In the days to
come America may Interpret the
thought of the world. I like to think
that the only things that disturb Amer
ica are not things which Interfere with
her ambitions but with her sympathies,"
he continued. I like to think that
when it comes to the settlement of
the present war, we shall be able to
assist in interpreting the needs of the
future."
Campaign Viewed Aa Interruption.
In his speech before the Press Club
President Wilson said in part:
I enjoy these runs away from home
to meet non-partisan bodies of men, be
cause I regard a campaign as a great
interruption to the National considera
tion of public questions. I think that
we have a very bad American habit of
changing our point of view for a few
months during the time when we are
determining the character and person
nel of our government. Therefore, I
think It is useful, as well as refreshing,
to look at things sometimes at arm's
length, to withdraw from the melee and
see things as you would try to see them
at other seasons.
"The relations of men to each other
In society alter themselves, whether
we will or not, by the mere develop

gressive policies ought not to be re
sisted unless they Involve changes
which bring about deterioration. If
they are moving In the wrong direc
tion they are not adjustments, and
therefore it seems to me that no mat
ter how we are going to vote on No
vember 7, we ought to make up our
minds to this one fact, that what we

America, but in the world, has come to

A.nd I want to urge upon you the

everybody has been confident he -knows
all about, and very few people have
known anything about at all. In pro
mntinar the tariff commission I wanted
to find a body of men who would look
at this thins without caring: wnicn way
the facts cut. I asked Congress for a
non-nanism commission. ana tney
gave me a partisan commission. I did
not want them to say anything about
how many should belong: to ono party,
because that ought to have no more
to do with It than which church he be
longed to. I want to find men who will
make a scientific Inquiry as to the facts
and make an absolutely fearless report,
and then let us go on those facts and
not on our prepossessions.
"That is the object of the Federal
Trade Commission, too. Tou know the
lawyers had the business men very
badly scared about the anti-trust laws.
chiefly because they had an unpleasant
way of keeping the business men
guessing:.
"I predict that this is the beginning
of a renaissance in this country of the
sense of patriotic responsibility and a
patrlotlo Intimacy or relationship. l
believe it is going to lead to a kind of
co-operation and a kind of develop
ment, a kind of enterprise in times of
peace which we have never known
before."
His speech before the women follows
In part:
. There never was a time when It was
more necessary for the nations of the
world to exercise self-posesslon, to ac
quire self-knowledge, to determine
their direction and purpose, and to re
late themselves to the work of estab
lishing Justice among mankind. 1
think that everyone of us as Americans
would be ashamed if America did not
know exactly what she was about anu
by what means and instrumentalities
she was going to act. . I therefore,
thought that you would Indulge me
this afternoon If I tried to point
out what seemed to me the leading
peculiarity of the task that lies be
fore me.
Tou can best illustrate it by the
relations between employer and em
ploye. Justice can no longer be cold.
It is beginning to have warmth and
sympathy and emotion In it. And so
all the problems of soctety are chang
ing under our very eyes, and there is
coming the time, unless I am very
much mistaken, when this same qual
ity of sympathy and mercy will come
Into the hitherto cold and untouched
field, when nations shall agree with
nations that the rights of humanity are
greater than the rights of society.
IVew Problems Confront Society. -
"Therefore, modern society has anew
set of problems to meet. It has to say,
if the employer will not voluntarily
establish the proper conditions of labor,
the law must oblige him to establish
the proper conditions of labor. If he
will not voluntarily be human-and fair,
he must be obliged to be human and
fair.
"Politics, my friends, consists of
something that you can almost express
In the formula, "get together.' Try to
understand what the common task Is
and all take part In it in the same
spirit, because politics is nothing but a
systematic attempt to keep the law ad
Justed to the real facts, keep the law
behind the real and helpful construct
ive forces of society, and you cannot
do that unless you understand society.
You cannot understand society unless
you understand the component parts, so
that, after all. the formula 'get togeth
er lies at the base of it all, and the
first step is for the elements of society
to understand one another; but that is
not all that la necessary,
"The next thing Is that the elements
of society should understand their com
mon relationship to the society of
which they constitute a part. When I
see some gentlemen running amuck I
am perfectly aware that they do not

already said is true, that the functions

'Women Supply New Element.
"Tho whole spirit of the law has
been to give leave to the strong, to
give opportunity to those who could
dominate, but it seems to me that the
function of eoclety now has another

the element which women are going to

due to the fact'that It was not com

that the L'nited States was really dis
