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."

Mrs. Geraghty is a niece or Mrs.

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.

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.
This is the situation, at least, in the
southern part of Yamhill County, and
It Is fairly typical of the Willamette
Valley due to the exceptional prices
for hay. Demand comes from various
sections for more hay warehouses.
VETO QUIETLY ACCEPTED
CHAIRMAN HAY WILL NOT FIGHT
NEW ARMY MEASURE.
Objection to Article Kot Iaaplred by
General Alnsworta or Any One
Else. 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.
