, SYRACUSE, X. T., Sept. 22. The
democratic national administration at
the peak of its responsibility and op
portunity forfeited the confidence of
the country and by "Inexcusable blun
ders" seriously Impaired the nation's
presticre and influence, Charles K.
Jfuphes declared tonight in an address
notifying Judpe Nathan I. Miller he
had received the republican nomina
tion for governor of New York.
"Instead of seeking1 a swift peace,
the administration pursued a policy
of delusion, bringing together good
and bad in an unwholesome union
which the administration was deter
mined should be indissoluble' said Mr.
Hughes.
No Doubt About Verdict.
The distinctive policy of the demo
cratic administration thus became one
of surrender of American pri nciples
and interests, and upon that policy it
has demanded and unquestionably will
receive the verdict o the American
people.
"There is now but one plain course
to rectify the mischief and that is to
put in a republican administration
which will be able readily to arrange
for a salutory international co-operation
and the full discharge of Amer
ican duty to mankind."
Declaring that "we must have a new
leadership which is cognizant of the
right way to promote peace," and. that
"we need an enlightened foreign pol
icy," Mr. Hughes asserted that "in our
domestic concerns what we impera
tively need is sound judgment and
fairness and integrity of purpose in
upholding the government of law and
reason, a broad sympathy and solici
tude for improvement in laws and ad
ministration. Ward-Heeling Tactics Flayed.
lt is too serious a time to admit of
attempts to win political favor by cap
italizing passion, bitterness of feeling
and misjudgment." he said.
"We have deplored regrettable ut
terances of this kind by the demo
cratic party which have this tendency.
Consider this statement: I charge it
now, I will charge it until the ides of
November are here, that they are rais
ing the campaign fund for the purpose
of purchasing the presidency if they
can.
"It Is one thing to comment on cam
paign funds, but even here exaggerat
ed and unfounded assertions only avail
to bring speedy rebuke in the opinion
of all intelligent persons, but to make
the charge I have just quoted goes
beyond every possible license of the
stump.
Statements Show Unfitness.
"Again, consider the statement: I
know many men who are making con
tributions for the purpose of using the
bayonet to settle industrial contro
versies Such statements do not in
vite rejoinder, but it is evident the
person with the unhappy disposition
to make them should not have the op
portunity of the presidency of the
United States."
The republican reservations to the
league of nations covenant was the
country's "second declaration of inde
pendence," declared Senator "Wads
worth, another speaker.
AUTO DIVE STILL MYSTERY
OWXER SAYS HE WILL ASK SET
TLEMENT OP INSURANCE.
ROBERT RUSSKLIj XAMED AS
JOXES ASSISTANT.
Portland Cashier Gains High Po
' sllion and Has Risen From.
Duty as Carrier.
Robert T. Russell has been named
as assistant postmaster of the Port
land postoffice, succeeding Harry Eu
rand, who resigned several months
ago when Frank Stott Meyers, former
postmaster, was removed by order of
President Wilson.
Mr. Russell formerly was cashi&r
of the post off ice and was advanced
to the new post under a temporary
appointment. Postmaster Jones, who
took office Sunday, has sent recom
mendation of Russell to the postoffice
department at Washington, D. C, ask
ng that the appointment be made
temporary and confirmation of his
choice "is expected to arrive here
within the next 10 days.
Postmaster Jones yesterday de
clined to comment on the reported ap
pointment of the new assistant post
master, but it was learned from an
authoritative source that the commis
sion has been tendered to Mr. Russell
and that he is now serving: tempo
rarily as assistant postmaster until
official confirmation of the permanent
appointment is received from Wash
ington. D. C.
Mr. Russell has been cashier of the
Portland postoffice for the past seven
years and has been in the local post
office department for 12 years. Like
his superior, Postmaster Jones, he has
risen from the ranks and the appoint
ment as second in command of the
Portland .office is declared to be a
reward for merit. ,
From the same authoratlve source
it was learned that George Carr,
former finance clerk of the Portland
office, has been promoted to cashier,
and Frank Ross, who has been serving
as assistant -superintendent of the
central station, has been advanced to
superintendent of the postal savings
department. These two appointments,
like that of Mr. Russell are tem
porary until final confirmation from
Washington makes them permanent.

Car Cost Him $485; a U Time Mo
tor Is Said to Have Been
Stolen $140 Was Owing.
There were no new developments
yesterday in the investigation into
the strange plirnge of an automobile
from the cliff of the Sandy river, near
Gordon creek, at 2 o'clock in the
morning, August 31. It had been posi
tively identified as a machine report
ed stolen later the same morning.
H. B. Watt, the owner of the auto
mobile, visited the scene of the
wreck, viewed what had once been his
car, and announced that he would call
at his insurance office for a settle
ment Saturday. The automobile was
insured for 400. Mr. Watt paid 485
for the car. H owed $140 on It at
the time of the inexplicable dive.
Investigators have given up the
theory that shots beard earlier in the
riight near the place where the auto
mobile disappeared had any connec
tion with the affair, or that the car
may have been occupied. Mr. Watt
declared that his machine was stolen
from his garage that night and that
he believed the thieves must have
driven it to this lonely spot and
there disposed of it.
Headlights from two machines were
seen on the cliff Just before the
eplajh and one car was beard to leave
afterward.

rious petitions for changes in the as
sessment roll ,as returned by the as

timber land men who claimed port de
velopment should be Btopped. Fol
lowing an all-day session the 100 tax
payers present voted by 78 to 23 that
it was the sense of the meeting that
the petitions should be granted.
The board took the matter under
consideration and will decide at

Bee Man of Corvallis, Employed in
Idaho, Shot rfs Result of
Trouble Over Pay.
CORVALLIS. Or., Sept. 22. (Spe
cial.) According to information re
ceived here by the. Fones family, the
death of Leo Fones of this city, who
was shot las week in Idaho, resulted
from what they believe to be the re
sult of a refusal by Lee to be de
frauded out of his earnings under a
contract he had with the man who
shot him. According to the family's
statement, Mr. Fones left Corvallis
May 14 to accept a position in Idaho
with a man for whom he had worked
before.
Another man, Mr. Toung, learning
of Fones' skill with bees, offered him
a jRch larger salary, consisting, it
is alleged, of a stipulated amount of
money a month, his board and room,
10 per cent of all honey extracted and
the privilege of developing and selling
queen bees at $1.50 apiece for his
own profit. All this amounted to
more than Mr. Young had counted' on,
they say. Karly in the season Young
sold nearly $400 worth of honey, it Is
alleged, and Fones allowed him to
keep all the money. Later, it is al
leged. Young concealed two tons of
extracted honey, which latter was
found. Failing to get his wages and
believing that Young Intended cheat
ing him out of everything, Fones
wrote 'a-Mountain Home lawyer, ask
ing him to serve an Injunction on
Young, so that he could not dispose of
the honey.
Young. It is alleged, took the letter
from the mail and was "angry. He
wrote a threatening letter to Fones.
they aver, who was still legally- in
his employ, ordering him to let his
automobile trucks alon'e, which trucks
Fones had used in going the long
distance to town and used, they say,
by the advice of his lawyer. Young,
it Ls alleged, borrowed a rifle and
laid in wait for Fones and shot him
dead at the automobile wheel. Two
bullets went through the head and
three through the body, either one
