MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, - OR EGON", - VTi 1 DAY, fAUfl UST 11,1910 FARGO,; N. D., Aug. 11. Charles . Hughes, republican nominee for president, left Fargo parly today on a revised sehedulo that wil! enable liim to deliver an evening address at Billings, Mont., tonight. Mr. Hughes hnd not intended to leave here until 5:47 o'clock thin morning, but found flint ho could necoiumodate his Kchod ule to the change and accordingly left at one o'clock thin morning. ' The strain of campaigning has se riously affected the nominee's voice, which was so hoarse rit times during his speech here last night that ho had to stop frequently for a few seconds at a time. ..Mr. Hughes is trying to overcome the hoarseness incidental to unaccustomed continuous speaking by not talking on the train, except when imperative. , The ride across the North Dakota plains to the Montana line was broken by a sories of short stops. The first of these was nt Bismurk, for ten minutes. At Mundan and at Dickin son two minute stops are on the schedule. At Medora, where Theo dore Roosevelt spent part of his early Kfc on a ranch; a five minute stop is to bo made. Two minute stops are Scheduled nt (llendive, Miles Cit and Forsythe, Montana. The party is due in Billings at 7:30 tonight. i, i FARGO. N. D.. Aug. 11. Chas. E. Hughos last night assailed the pres ent administration for Inefficiency, Waste and extravagance particularly lth reference to the river and harbor bill recently passed by congress. "I think I may Bay without rash ness" Mr. Hughes told a vast audience hero, "that the government of the United States Is recklessly wasteful, Bhamefully Incompetent and extrav agant, a reproach to the Intelligence of the people because of Its ineffic iency. "I would like to have the authority to Investigate this administration for about six months," the nominee con tlnued. "The rivers and harbors bill known to the people as the pork bar- roll bill," Mr. Hughes said, "Is large ly money wasted, as there Is no ex pert examination to determine what expenditures are needed. "On tho contrary, it very largely depends on who are the Influential irien representing particular districts and what appropriations are obtained Jn this district and that district for this man and that man. "This Is a matter of log rolling. It brings a blush of shame to the cheeks of every American. It ought to be stopped, if I am elected president, to the best of my ability, I propose to stop It." I . Mr. Hughes declared the pork bar ren bill of 1914 was "talked to death by Senator Burton, a fine republican" and that the 1915 bill was reduced materially because of the opposition of republicans and conscientious democrats. "This year, just tho oilier day," the nominee continued, "congress passed a rivers and habors bill of some t42, 1)00,000. I confess I don't know why such a measure should receive ap proval. We have heard a great deal lately of the power of executive lead ership. It has been powerfully exert ed. Why can It not be exerted to save the public purse from being loot. ed In the Interest of these ridiculous appropriations? "Four years ago our opponents ar raigned the republican party for ex travagance and waste and reckless expenditure. Then they proceeded to be more lavish In appropriations than tho republican party had been.' They arraigned the republican party for lack of businesslike administration and then they proceeded to be abso lutely profligate in their appropria tions. "Now, I have no apologies for re publican extravagance. I am Just as quick to condemn that which Is wrong in my own party as I am any where else. I don't stand for what I don't believe to be right, simply be cause It 1b under the banner of a par. ticular party."

NO CHANCE FOR PEACE AT PRESENT SAYS ZIMMERMAN - v AMSTERDAM, Aug. 11. Tho Bor- llner . Tageblatt' today reproduced a Hungarian newspaper correspondent's Interview with Dr. Alfred Ziminer manthe German under-secretary for foreign affairs, in whtun Dr. Zimmer man 'said the time to talk peaco haB not yet arrived. "Conscious of our strength and In view. of our successes," Dr. Zlinmer- man.is quoted, "we repeatedly de clared our willingness to entor nego tiations for peace conditions. It is known that the entente powers, under the '.pressure of England, have not shown, the same readiness. Therefore, full responsibility for further blood shed falls on tho entente powers. The entente allies live under the impres sion that tho present offensive ,can bolter their position. Wo are firmly convinced that the iron wall In the woBt cannot be shaken and that the now successes 4n the east cannot stop ub. Unless our enemies are convinced by the failure of their efforts that they cannot alter their military situa Hon, It is useless to consider the ques tion of peace prospects." .

The, epi-r; domlo of Infantile pralysls showed another slight decline today and the health experts, who are fighting the scourge here were more hopeful that the cool weather which relieved the city yesterday would materially chock tho spread of the plague. The dally bullotln of the health department shows that during the 24-hour jie rlod which ended at 10 a., m;3l children died of the disease and 165 new cases were reported In the five boroughs of New Y irk city.
