6 THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAX, PORTLAND. AUGUST 20, 1916. SPEAKER MAINE STARTS GAHGfl Champ Clark Makes Speech Praising President and Democratic Party. REVIEW MADE OF RECORD SOCIETY WOMAN WHO ELOPED WITH NEWPORT CHAUFFEUR RE TURNED TO NOTED EASTERN RESORT FOR SUMMER SEASON. Mr. Hughes' Speeches Criticised. Administration Is Lauded for Wbnt Mr. Clark Calls Its "Discharge of Ditty." BRUNSWICK. Me.. Aug. 19. Champ Clark. Speaker of the House of Repre sentatives, opened the . campaign in Maine for the Democrats today in a characteristic speech in which he told of the accomplishments of the Admin istration in Congress under the leader ship of President Wilson. He also took note of the campaign tour Charles E. Hughes is making in behalf of his candidacy for the Presidency. Mr. Hughes, he said, had thus far made enough speeches to enable people to form judgment as to his opinions on 'current issues, and in the Speaker's opinion, "he has shot his bolt, but failed to hit the bullseye." Mr. Clark said, in part: "Judge Hughes has made enough speeches in this campaign to enable intelligent persons to form something approximating a correct Judgment as to his opinions on current issues. He has shot his bolt, but has failed to hit the bullseye. Speech of 100S Recalled. "It was universally conceded by both friend jand foe that his speech at 1'oungstown. O.. in 1908, was far and away the greatest Republican speech made that year. Comparing his speeches since he was nominated for President with hi3 strong Youngstown speech, one is forced inevitably to one of two conclusions: "First, that his pen and tongue have lost their cunning measurably: or sec ond, that he has nothing worth while to urge against Democratic accomplish, ments or to propose as Republican pol icies, should Republicans by some mir acle win the House, the Senate and the Presidency. Speeches Called "Carplngs." "His speeches may not be unfairly ummed up as 'querulous carpings' at the splendid record of a Democratic Congress and a Democratic adminis tration. Here and there out of a vast multitude of things ho finds a few of minor character which he deems un satisfactory to him, which, even if wrong, have no more to do with the tremendous problems with which a mighty people are wrestling than have the potato vines of Aroostook County, Maine, to do with the majestic flow of the Mississippi River. "He endeavors to make an issue of the separation ot E. Dana Durand from the pay roll as director of the Census. I know Mr. Durand. He is an estima ble gentleman, but he had no vested right to the office which he held. There are thousands of American cit izens as capable, honest, industrious and patriotic as Mr. Durand is, and neither Judge Hughes cor anybody else of veracity will deny these necessary qualifications to the splendid Ameri can who was appointed to succeed Mr. Durand. Appointments Are Defended. "It is not within the power of Judge Hughes, nor any: other complaining orator, to make a National issue of Durand any more than, he can make a National issue of, who fired the Ephi sian Dome, or who struck Billy Pat terson, or who was the man In the Iron mask. "He says that he Is in favor of 'un diluted Americanism.' So are we all, God be praised! He is not peculiar in that respect. The vast mass of the American people men and women are too busy working at what the Ger mans denominate 'the bread and butter sciences' to make elaborate speeches vaunting their 'undiluted Americanism,' but the average American citizen and, after all, the average American citizen constitutes the strength and glory of the republic is as patriotic as Charles Evans Hughes, Woodrow Wilson or any other big wig in the land. There is not one American citizen, native born or naturalized, in 100, who would fail the country should the supreme test come. Some Mistakes Admitted. "Perhaps President Wilson has made some mistakes. Perhaps the Demo cratic Congress has made some. It is safe to say there never was a. President or Congress that did not make mistakes and there never will be simply be cause we are all human. "Justice Hughes is hunting for spots on the Democratic administration and the uemocratic (congress, but the peo- piereaime that we have the most un bounded prosperity that has blessed the land since Christopher Columbus discovered America, and that notwith standing the ancient and chronic sneer of the Republicans" that we possess no power of constructive statesmanship, we have in three and a half years placed upon the statute books more constructive remedial legislation than the Republicans did in 20 years laws which should have been passed four decades ago. They are likelv to con elude to 'let well enough alone' and to continue the Democrats in power." Fat Are Reviewed. Speaker Clark here enumerated "some of the things we have done.' with the remark that "actions speak louder than words." His list included the tariff bill with its new income tax reaiures, national reserve bank act, anti-trust law, Alaskan trades com mission, rural credits and good roads mil. and the Constitutional amendment authorizing election of United (States oenaiors Dy popular vote. What has been done for the dpfane of the country and for the laboring man also were referred to, and in closing the Speaker said: "The people seem to have huiit. confidence in the pilot of the ship of state, Woodrow Wilson, and are not likely to drop him overboard in mid ocean while the storm whips the waters Into fury. "He did his duty; the Democratic House did its duty; the Democratic Senate did its duty, and the word duty' is the sublimest word in our vernacular. We submit that we de serve well of the republic all of us. Record Called Wonderful. "Having discharged our duty and been faithful to our trust so far, the people will assume that we will do our duty and be faithful even unto the end. "it is written, 'by their works ye hall know them.' Men are measured more by what they do than by what they say. We rest our case upon the things we have accomplished as an earnest of what we will accomplish if continued in power. "Ours is a magnificent, a wonderful record, which anybody save a stark idiot can easily and successfully de fend. Upon that unequaled record we confidently appeal to the grand In quest of the Nation in the impending campaign." fSSE r , 7""- -Tfs-v" x, -x . 1 C sA it y V r ,', ' tZ7 1 S ' t 1 il ; z 1 , Jr At , .

INVISIBLE RULE HAS FOE (Continued From First Page.) principle as a principle which, of course, must be carefully and prudently applied that we must have the idea of protecting American enterprises against the competition of other nations exist ing under their protection on a differ ent basis in respect to .wages and standards of living from what we have. We must not be afraid of perfect co operation. Haphazard Rnle Criticised. "Everywhere along the line from this time on we have to consider, not what each one can do in a haphazard way, but what Is the best way to do things to achieve things in the future. For example, the practice is only compara tively recent of keeping properly the Items of aest, so that you can get from the manufacturer the real cost sheet. How many realize now what can be done and where Improvements can be made? "I have talked with many along that line, and I believe, without doing you gentlemen an injustice, that there is a great deal that we have yet to learn in this country In order that we may hold our own with the better-organized nations abroad. . 'We have work to do yet in this country. We are loose; we are disjoint ed, and we are unorganized. I want to see fair co-operation on a proper basis with such supervision as is necessary to prevent abuses. In order that we can go forward and advance our foreign trade throughout the world. Security for Dusl.ens Needed. 'The .fact that we have the state supreme In its sphere and the Nation supreme in its sphere; the fact that where the two intertwine the Federal power must be regarded as the domi nant power does not mean that we should not have those accommodations which will present certainty and se curity in all those business activities that come in contact with the Govern ment where the interest is locaL "There should be opportunity for it to be heard where the interest is'local. Where the interest Is National there must be the opportunity for it to be served. If we have a district or terri tory or area in which there is doubt there should be opportunity for such to be heard and a proper tribunal by which, as administrative matter, the question can be determined, and leave no twtlignt rone no place of uncer tainty in which business can fall In dlsesteem and come under a cloud of doubt. I maintain that wherever we have the Government represented In regula tion and supervision. It must be a regu lation and supervision that is really expert ana squares with the facts of those elected by the people, but by ap pointees of elected officers who repre sent the competence, the intelligence and the -talent of the Nation. We are entitled to that." t In his address to the Tausiness men of San Francisco at the Commercial Club. Mr. Hughes spoke in part as follows: "We come to a constructive period. difficult period, a period in which America must look forward with great er confidence in the soundness of our life than she has hitherto had. We have had an abundant surgery. No body can live by surgery alone, however necessary it may be. "We have got to have hygienic treat. ment. The system of the patient must be built up by abundant exercise, by fresh air and abundant nutrition. am glad to think that we are already for that forward movement and now I think we can be sure that we can control monopolistic parties, and that we can prevent unjust discrimination. We can secure a square deal and yet we can foster enterprise, build up and not destroy, encourage and not fetter. and make the honorable man of busi ness feel that he has a free rein to an honest success. Correct Principles First. "If w-e cannot so judge the United States, then our future Is a troublous one and we will fall as great nations of the past have failed. We are but a young people. We are only an experi ment. ' Nations several times our age have perished and left but scant mem ories. We have, as I say, a difficult system of government. It requires constant attention and constant study on the fiart of those who know. The man who knows is the man I want to talk to about every department of life. "I do not believe it is necessary to prostitute public business In order to have the confidence of the electorate I think that is a great mistake. What we need In this country, as I have said, is, first, to have correct principles.

JAPANESE IN CLASH China Protests at Sending 2000 Troops to Mongolia. 17 KILLED' ON EACH SIDE 000 tons of hay were, produced, valued at $10 and $11 a ton. At the same time, there Is a corre sponding decrease in grain production.

Saya Representative. WASHINGTON Aug. J9. Prospects of a Congressional row over Presi dent Wilsons veto of the Army ap propriation bill went glimmering to day and the attitude of Chairman Hay, of the House military committee, was one of acquiescence toward passing the bill with such a revision of the ar ticles of war as the President and the War Department say Is necessary. Mr. Hay, it became known, will not op pose the bill when it comes back from the Senate containing the new articles of war, but not the exemptions of re tired officers, which caused the Presl dent to veto the bill. Chairman Hay, who will r,etlre from Congress next month to take a place on the Court of Claims, today denied that his objection to the exemption article was Inspired by ex-Adjutant General Ainsworth or any other retired officer. The Representative himself identified the officer whose name has been used- in this connection as Gen eral Ainsworth. Chairman Hay said his advocacy of the exemption article resulted from in stances of injustice to retired officers he had observed.

Pckln Government Iicarns of Army En Route and Says Trouble Was Caused by Fear of Bandit Raids; Toklo Otfers Aid. WASHINGTON. Aug. 19. China has protested to Japan, it was learned here today, against the sending of 2000 troops to Cheng Chlatung. in Eastern Mongolia, because of recent disturb ances there resulting In a clash be tween Chinese and Japanese troops. It Is contended by the Pekln govern ment that when the local magistrate ordered precautions taken against an expected raid by nomadic bandits, who were seizing prominent persons in that section for ransom, some of the Jap anese residents refused to obey. The magistrate attempted to enforce the order by arresting a Japanese. It is said, whereupon the Japanese began armed resistance, which resulted In about 17 deaths on both sides. The Japanese captured the magistrate and took him away. The Japanese are said to have re ceived reinforcements from their near by garrisons In South Manchuria, and reports from Tokio say & regiment ot cavalry, three battalions of infantry and a mixed company with machine guns have been dispatched to the city. China at once sent a protest. The whole situation was discussed Friday by the Japanese Cabinet, which announced its attitude depended upon the attitude and co-operation of China. The Chinese Legation officials said to day they did not expect any serious developments, though the racial hostil ity between the two lower classes In that section makes such, occurrences dangerous. It was recalled that the trouble in Nanking in 1913 and just outside Pekln a little later were satisfactorily ad justed after diplomatic negotiations. State Department diplomats have not been officially advised of the situation, but are deeply Interested in its possible eventualities.
