THE MOttXINC OREGONIAN, MONDAY, OCTOBER 23, 101O- - KENTUCKY FAILS TO Tl UPHOLD ADITIOII Boasted Southern Hospitality Not in Evidence When Mr. Hughes Speaks There. LOUISVILLE CROWD UGLY Sharp Contrast Seen In Nebraska, - Where Democratic Mayor ol Iiincoln Sets EiaimIo ol Cordiality for All. LINCOLN. Neb.. Oct. 22. "A. tale of two cities," or a contrast between the reception accorded" Charles E. Hughes in the home of Henry Watterson and that in the-home of William J.' Bryan, furnishes an interesting contrast be tween Southern hospitality as it is practiced in Louisville, and Western hospitality, as extended in Lincoln, Neb. The contrast serves to discount Southern hospitality, if Louisville is to be regarded as a typical Southern city. At the close of a day's trip through the mountains of Kentucky, a trip that was both interesting and inspiring, the Republican Presidential nominee con cluded his visiv. to the Blue Grass State with a speech in Louisville. Louisville, of course, is a .Democratic city; its Mayor and other officials are Demo crats, and Mr. Hughes was in the "enemy's country" when he went there, and he knew It. But he has been in enemy country before, yet never, un.. he came to the home of Watterson, was he received with absolute discourtesy or was any attempt made to break up his meetings. Great Crowd at Station. On arrival In Louisville, Mr. Hughes and party were met at the train by automobiles; an immense outpouring of people was at the station and lined the streets through which he was to pass on his way to the hall where his ad dress was to be delivered. The street crowd was phenomenal, according to residents of the town; they said it was the biggest crowd that ever had turned out to greet any candidate for the Presidency. The crowd was enthusi astic. Of course there were Democrats and Wilson men in the throng and they had their little say, but they did not mar the occasion. But when Governor Hughes reached the hall where he was to speak, he found it packed to the doors, largely with anti-Hughes men, who had gone early to gain admission. He himself had to fight his way through the crowd, for police protection and escort were denied him by the chief of police, an ardent Democrat While Mr. Hughes was able to get into the hall by active use of force, most of the members of his party were unable to get in, and no arrangements, had been made by which they could be pried in through tho terrible crowd. The police flatly refused to aid them. Howdylum In Prevalent. Once the Governor started his ad dress, confusion broke out in the audi ence; efforts were made to break up his speech; rowdyism was prevalent, and discourtesy of first one and then another sort was shown the speaker. Throughout the speech of Mr. Hughes, the audience, or a large part of it, dis played its turbulence, and tried in va rious ways to discourage him, but these affronts only served to move Mr. Hughes to speak with more than usual vigor, and when he neared the close of his address the Republicans present, by their overwhelming applause, drowned out the disturbers, and the Bpeecli v. as written down a success. Contrast with the Louisville incident the reception accorded Mr. Hughes when he came to Lincoln, a citr in which Charles Bryan, brother of Will iam J. Bryan, is Mayor, a city that has a Democratic government and is in Democratic control. In advance of the arrival of Governor Hughes, Mayor Bryan issued a proclamation urging the people to turn out to receive Mr. Hughes. When the Hughes train rolled into the station a great crowd was waiting; when he got into his automo bile to ride through the principal streets to the auditorium, he was greeted with cheers. There were six bands: the populace was out in force; Republicans were there with banners, and a double row of red lights blazed the way from the station to the hall. Lincoln has a population of 65,000; It looked as though more than that num ber turned out to receive Mr. Hughes. People Cordial and ReKpectfuI. The reception accorded as he drove through the streets was cordial and re spectful: the candidate was cheered as he went along; men in the crowds lifted their hats as he passed, and he, in turn, lifted his hat and acknowledged the cheers with bows. When he en tered the Auditorium. Mr. Hughes had such a welcome as was given him at Milwaukee and at Indianapolis. In tact, his reception in Lincoln more closely resembled that at Indianapolis than any he has had since that big night. The old-time Republican spirit was in evidence; the old-time marching clubs were on. hand; the Civil War vet erans, with their flags and their band were among those to greet the Repub lican nominee. gures show what a change has taken place in Mr. Wilson's home borough. "In Massachusetts, where the Demo cratic fight was over the nomination for Governor, the total vote waa 81.652. while In the Republican primaries Gov ernor McCall, unopposed. received 115.242. Result Similar In JVa.hlnglon. "Out on the Pacific Coast the prim aries in the state of Washington showed exactly the same kind of re sult. 214.660 voting in the Republican primary and only 34,970. In the Demo cratic primary. "The Democrats have been making some talk about carrying Washington. That ' means that they expect about 80.000 of the Republicans who voted In the primaries to vote the Democratic ticket at the election. That is a fair sample of these Democratic claims. 'Wisconsin, Michigan. Illinois. Kan sas and Ohio, in the Middle West, have 11 given the same kind of indication. In Kansas, for instance, 138,916 voters cast ballots in the Republican primar ies and only 47,445 In the Democratic primaries. The Democratic campaign managers have not yet had the audacity to claim Kansas, but they have talked about carrying Michigan. Illinois. Ohio and Wisconsin. Primaries Show Tendency. In each of these states the voter have shown at the primaries what they will do in November. In Michigan 284.- 640 votes were cast in the Republican primaries, and only 29.935 in the Demo cratic In Illinois. 420.494 Republicans voted in the primaries, against 258,508 Democrats, nl Ohio. 420,959 Republic ans voted in the primaries and only 39,- 601 Democrats. "New York state gave precisely the same kind of indication. 298,897 Repuo lican votes being cas at the primaries and only 158,817 Democratic votes. "Of course, the primary vote is never as large as the vote at the election. Klection day Is always a holiday, ano the polls are open all day long. Pri mary day In most states Is not a holiday. and the polls are usually open consid erably less than the full day. The full vote is never polled at a primary. but there Is one striking feature of al which is absolutely unmistakable. This I feature is the great preponderance of j interest on the Republican side. In every case, without exception, it waa the Republican voters who ha-d the in terest and took the trouble to go to the polls. No clearer evidence could be given of the intention of the voters to manifest their Republican preference on November 7. "In none of the states outside of the solid South where a primary election has been held this year, has the Demo cratic vote come within hailing distance of the Republican vote. "Down in Maryland a similar indica tion has been given at the registration where intending voters express their party affiliations for the ensuing year. In this registration the Democrats have lost more than 2000 and the Repub licans have gained more than 2000, making a net change of more than 5000, or considerably more than enough to overcome the Democratic majority at the last election. "The Democrats have been entertain ing themselves with amusing claims about the possibility of their carrying Pennsylvania. We are Just in receipt of the figures of the enrollment in Philadelphia, which show 242.548 voters enrolled as Republicans and only 35,679 as Democrats. "These figures are Incontestable. They show beyond possibility of ques tion how utterly preposterous has been the rainbow-chasing of the Democratic managers. Their claims that President Wilson is going to carry half of the Northern states, including Pennsyl vania, Michigan, Wisconsin, and several more, are not entitled to any consideration." 3ayerTabletsx Asp i H n jgL3 To guard against coun- Zl A 1 1 terfeits and substitutes of n.

Four prominent Norwegian bankers who have come here to arrange for Norwegian credit In this country of many hundred million dollars were passengers on the steamship Bergens fjord. which arrived today from Bergen.

Rather, we are here as individuals, to better the financial arrangements between Norway and the United States.

Hughes L Roux, editor of the Matin, quotes Dr. Carrel as saying: "Beginning In September. 1915, It would have been possible to suppress completely the suppuration of wounds in the hospitals, but our process en countered much resistance from the heads of the profession, though the lives of a great number of wounded would have been saved by this means. The savants would not believe In the possibility of the comolete sterilization of deep wounds, but we have succeeded in doing It." The process as described consists In complete irrigation of the wounds by means of a rubber tube with numer ous branches, perforated with many small holes. The - sterilizing solution was perfected after experiments with 200 or more different substanoea in various combinations. The wound Is thus rid of all foreign substances- and every corner or possible pocket la thoroughly cleansed. VICE CRUSADE IS BEGUN COOS PROSECUTOR DIRECTS RAIDS ON SIX LODGING HOUSES.

He at last attempted to cure Able Cohen, played by Al Franks, by glvln him a shot of hop. Abie, in turn, was compelled to cure the hop by a steam bath and was blown up.
