HUGHES STICKS TO
ONE SPEECH WHILE
ON HIS PRESENTTOUR
By Perry Arnold.
Tacoma. Wa.',lf., Aug 15 (U. P.)
Governor Hughes Is putting the per
sonal punch into his speeches In Wash
ington. He has begun to use the
personal pronoun In pledges and prom
ises. "If you elect nae to an executive
"office," he told hii audience at Spo
kane, "1 propose to ute my full exec
utive Influence."
This was the first time that the lie
publlcHn nominee has used the inti
mate personal pronoun. It was indic
ative of a further step In the gover
nor's "warming up" process. In his
upeeches across the continent so far
the G. O. 1J. aspirant for presidential
Jionors has heretofore confined him
self to speaking of the party. The
only personal references were veiled.
Sticks to One Speech,
The governor has really only one
speed It starts off with a plea for
unity of Americanism, touches on pre
paredness, attacks Democratic policies
on both matters; swings to the Mexican
program, Jumps back to an attack
on the Democrats for governmental
. Inefficiency, "pork" methods and lack
of co-ordination and ends with a
pledge of "better government under
Republican rule."
Roosevelt usually had six different
speeches in his campaigning, and Taft
at least four. Roth altered these
speeches to emphasize some different
section. Hughes localizes the situa
tion. Finishing" Polish on Sentanoss.
Today Hughes will probable choose
Inefficiency as his main battering ram
In the assault against the Democratic
citadel. But what Is remarked most
by those who have been associated
with him since the start of his cam
paign trip Is the extraordinary "polish"
which the nominee has now applied to
this one speech. It Is a perfect Indi
cation that the governer has now
reached- the summit of his campaign,
with skill. He has put In new synon
yms, new smiles, new epigrams.
In addition to his Tacoma speech
this afternoon, the governor Is due to
speak tonight at Seattle's great out
door arena. National Committeeman
Perkins reported today tests showed
there would be no need of a sounding
board to save the governor's voice
there.
"I shall not read It in falL You
would need to sit down and put a
towel around your head, get down close
to It and study It, read it over again
and again, and then you would be pua
xled to know what it meant. If you
found out what it meant, you would
agree with me that It was obviously
ineffective and would not work."
Bays Clause Wot Effective.
Mr. Hughes then read a synopsis of
the clause In the bill. "Now, what
would a prosecuting attorney have to
prove as a violation of this act?"
"He has got to prove that this act
of commonly and systematically bring
ing goods into this country, contrary
to the prohibition, is being violated.
He has got to prove that such act is
done with the Intent to destroy or In
jure any industry of the United States.
If he doesn't prove that, he has got to
prove that it is for the purpose of pre
venting the establishment of an in
dustry in the United States, or for the
purpose of restraining any part of the
commerce of the United States.
"Now, there was a remedy, a coun
tervailing duty which was proposed,
but our friends were so strong to their
traditions of tariff for revenue only
that they would have none of it.
"I am desirous that this matter of
the tariff should be attended to with
out abuse. I do not prorose simply
because I am a candidate for office
to seek office under false pretenses.
I am a candidate and a good Repub
lican, but If I am elected I shall en
deavor to the best of my ability to
see that principle applied for the
public good, and not for private gain."
High Cost of IJviny.
Declaring that the Democratic party
claimed credit for the great prosper
ity the country is enjoying today, lie
continued :
"Thpy seemed to think." he said,
"that the American people are so lack
ing In Intelligence that they do not
know the sources of that prosperity.
They seemed to think that the Ameri
can people have short memories. I
think it will be found on election day
that the American people have good
memories.
"Our opponents proposed, four years
aeo. to reduce the cost of living. They
said that what was necessary was to
reduce the tariff, and, that done, down
would come the, cost of living. They
proceeded to reduce the tariff, but
they did not reduce the cost of living.
What they did was to reduce the op
portunities to make a living. They did
that right effectively."
Exports Are HlgheT.
"I am told that In zinc alone exports
Jumped ,in a year 3000 per cent," said
the speaker, in making the statement
that exports are higher today thi.n
ever before. "Exports of mules jumped
LTiOO per cent in one year. Perhaps
that was due to the Democratic party.
"Why. it Is an insult to the Intelli
gence of the American people to charge
that or to credit that abnormal, arti
ficial prosperity produced by the hor
rible war abroad to the policies of the
Democratic party."
The discussion of the tariff took
up most of the time of Hughes' speech,
but he gr.ve some time to criticism c .
the administration for what he termed
its lack of preparedness to meet tho
situation in Mexico.
Mr. Hughes speaks In Tacoma today.
administration of the nation's affairs.
There were few cheers, but vigor
ous handclapplng punctuated the tell
ing points of his address.
One of the points which called for
the greatest applause was his state
ment: "The only chance this administra
tion has to carry this election is that
the present war in Europe has saved
it a demonstration of its efficiency."
Prosperity Due to War.
Another point that was accorded a
demonstration was his statement that
the Democrats are claiming a pros
perity which is due to the war.
"I wonder if they think the Demo
cratic party and the European war
are synonymous," he asked.
"I know that you take deep interest
in the issues of the campaign," he
said, at another place. "1 speak to
the women here as I speak to the.'
men. I did not come here to make a
different kind of a political speech.
I know you are solicitous about the
welfare of the country."
Party Wot Pledged to Suffrage.
While attesting his personal belief
In the federal amer.dment as a means
of securing Immediate suffrage for
women. Mr. Hughes pointed out that
the Republican platform does not de
clare for that method, and at no time
during his address did he pledge him
self to work. If elected president, for
the amendment.
Hughes spoke In the same hall where
Roosevelt addressed a great gathering
of women Progressives In the cam
paign of 1912. On that occasion the au
dleace was so great that another the
atre had to be secured to care for the
overflow. Yesterday's meeting, how
ever, was for Republican women.
Reception at Davenport Hotel.
Following the meeting Mr. and Mrs.
Hughes were tendered a reception In
the Davenport hotel,

Spokane. Wash., Aug. 15. (I. N. S.)
Addressing them as "my fellow citi

day spoke to ar. audience of 3000
women voters in the Auditorium
theatre here. A tremendous wave of
handclapplng welcomed the salutation.
Mr. Hughes Interspersed his speech
with many epigrams that have not

Salem, Or., Aug. 15. WThile armed
guards stood around them in the flax
fields of Mission bottom, two convlt s
of the Oregon prison dashed into the
brush and made their escape Tuesday
morning.
This makes eight men who have es
caped from fla-x gangs since the work
started this summer.
The men who escaped today are
Charles Brown, committed from Wash
ington county to serve from one to
seven years for larceny in a store,
and Leopold Werter, committed from
Multnomah county to serve from two
to five years for burglary.
Brown had been In prison before.
Warden Mlnto said at 10 o'clock that
It was reported that Werter had been
wounded by guards as he made his
getaway. This report was not con
firmed, he said.
Warden Mlnto said that he had re
ceived word from the guards that they
believed that Werter had been
wounded. As the men dashed into
the woods the guards sent & VOUey
of rifle shots after them.
The convicts -who remained were
herded Into a bunch, and some of the
guards watched them while others
joined in the chase of the fugitives.
Brown held up a Rose City car In
Portland In 1908, and In capturing him
Joe Keller, then a Portland police of
ficer, shot him in the shoulder, Broc
had a pal named Miller In the car
hold up.
Werter Is also a desperate char
acter. He has been a professional
safe breaker.
Hood River, Or., Aug. 15. A good
roads meeting was held at the Com
mercial club rooms last night to con
sider the practicability of proceeding
with a definite plan for a compre
hensive permanent road system for the
Hood River valley, to possibly culmi
nate in holding an election in Novem
ber for the purpose of voting a bond
issue of from $75,000 to $125,000 to
be used in building a permanent trunk
line from the city to the uppper val
ley, together with lateral roads to ac
commodate the farmers of the valley'
Seven members each of the city
council, Pomona grange. Commercial
club and the three members of the
county court will constitute the com
mittee to work out a plan for the
best possible road system for the val
ley. It was unanimously voted that
the roads should be strictly ci;n
struTted for commercial purposes and
not for scenic features; that the money
to be raised by the proposed bond is
sue should be spent in the valley ex
clusive of the Columbia river high
way; that all promises to be mi'de
the voters previous to election as to
how and where the money should be
spent should be reduced to writing by
constituted legal authority.
It was unanimously agreed to se
cure at the earliest possible date a
comprehensive survey of the location
of the proposed valley roads. It was
cited the $50,000 spent annually In
Hood River county for road work was
done ou a patch work basis and that
with the voting of a substantial bond
Issue the yearly $50,000 of tax money
voted for county roads could be saved
from the patch work evil and spent on
the permanent plan that would result
in a dollar's worth of road for every
dollar spent.
Though the delegates from the
grange read a set of resolutions op
posing a bond issue at this time, it
was stated by the ' grangers present
that if the farmers of the valley could
be shown that the $50,000 spent under
the present system in patching ih
roads over the county could be invested
in permanent road construction with ad
ditional Investment by a bond issue
that the farmers would vote for .he
bonds. A. I. Mason, who was one of
the leaders against the $75,000 bond
Issue voted by the county for the Co
lumbia river highway, favored the
maximum of a bond issue of $125,000
at this time for county roads.
The committee will hold a number
of meetings and evolve plans to be
submitted to the voters of the county.
The sentiment In the county at the
present time favors a bond issue for
local roads If the money can be spent
under a competent road engineer on

Fimds Wilson Wanting
When the Republicans and former Progressives in Carnegie Hall applauded the emphatic
statements in Mr. Hughes' speech accepting the Republican Presidential nomination, they
were endorsing "the real Republican Platform," as one writer calls it. The applause war,
joined in by Colonel Roosevelt, who sat in a conspicuous box, and told reporters, after the
meeting, what "an admirable speech" it was and how satisfactory he found the speaker's
exposure of Mr. Wilson's Mexican Policy and Mr. Wilson's handling of our foreign affairs.
