PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES
In the current iuua of Everybody'!
Magazine appear two timely artulea
dealing with presidential candidate!,
Wilson and Hughes. "Hoxhea," by
William Brown Miloney, a. New York
newspaper man who served as a writer
on "The World." the late Joseph Pul
itzer's psper, tells of Justice Hughes'
life uptosnd during the New York gas
investigations. Hughes wss appointed
attorney for the legislative committee
on investigation. His genius-like abil
ity in handling the matter, the preci
sion of bis work and the mass of
authentic fscts he gathered, won bim
bis first public note.
Because of the reticence of Hughes,
the attorney, in those days, the news
papers built up that great icicle myth.
But in his article Mr. Meloney shows
tbe fallacies of these oft-quoted criti
cisms of the great standard besrer of
the Republican party today. Mr. Me
loney speaks authentically.
Joseph Pulitzer became interested in
Hughes. He instructed bis writers to
seek out everything connected with his
life, "to write a story about him so
that a blind man could see him." As
those stories began to come in Pulitzer
said, "this man will go far," and
later he made the prediction that
Charles Evans Hughes would one day
become president of the United States.
Showing the "humanness"of Hughes
we reprint the following from Mr. Mo
loney's article:
Hughes, the lawyer, the self-respecting
bill-paying father and husband of
570 West End Avenue, New York, un
derwent no change as the result of his
transition to tbe executive mansion at
Albany, nor did his family. They made
a home of the old pile in all thst the
word "home" can imply. And "those
kids" never became obsessed by the
idea that the were any better than
anybody's else youngsters in Albany.
Their mother saw to that. Their prin
cipal companions in playtime were the
orphan children in St. Joseph's Catho
lic home, whose grounds abut upon the
back yard of the executive mansion.
Two or three times a week regularly
Mrs. Hughes would get the sisters in
charge of St. Joseph's to let an instal
ment of their charges visit her, and
there would be games and cakes and
ice cream. Frequently she would make
tho governor quit his office earlier than
usual to show himself, for to these
children the chief executive of the Em
pire state was a tremendous person
something like a king or a prince come
to life out of a fairy tale. Wherever
the children of St. Joseph's of those
days may be, they must have found
life just a little sweeter, a little less
bitter, for the touch of mother love
that Antoinette Hughes put into it
then.
"This might be a little one of mine,"
she would often say, holding a mother
less tike to her breast.
In another article in the same num
ber of Everybody's is another story
"Business Men Aaginst Wilson," writ
ten by C. P. Connolly.
Mr. Connolly traveled from New
York to Kansas City, interviewing
business men. The article is not a bi
ased attack on the policies of Presi
dent Wilson, for the reader is im
pressed with its fairness. Still Mr
Connolly says that by far the greater
number of business men of all the cit
ies he visited, with the exception of
St. Louis, were opposed to President
Wilson's reelection. One of the open
ing parargaphs of the article follows:
Had I picked out men whom I knew
to be antagonistic to the adminstration
the chorus of dissent could not have
been more hearty. It was a complete
surprise to me, particularly the over
whelming sentiment against Mr. Wil
son in New York and Chicago. Some
were more specific, some more Dreiu
diced, and some were more profane
than others; but all were agreed that
Mr. Wilson is a theorist who insists
upon putting his theories into effect
long after they sre shown to be wrong;
mat ne is a cultured gentleman, of lit
erary tastes, who has had no business
experience; that he is honest, and is
trying desperately to do things, but
that he has no foresight: and finally.
that the White House iB too expensive
training bcdooi lor statesmen.
And in closing Mr. Connolly says:
That Wilson is not popular among
ousiness men is beyond question.
mean the men who are confronted with
facts who look at things as they are
today, or as they are likey to be in the
next lew years, and who concern them'
Beives not at all with the distant fu
ture." They are against Wilosn. U an
election were to be held tomorrow, and
if it were confined to the business men
of the country, Wilson would be over
whelmingly defeated. That is tbe
sentiment, not of big business, for I
have not sought in any general way to
ascertain the altitude of such men, but
ot the average run or business men
throughout tl.o country- men in many
instances unfriendly to big business.
Perhaps there is one way to account
lor the situation and that is that bus
iness is Republican, and that these
men are partisans. But that does not
quite explain the almost universal dis
satisfaction. Business ' cannot be all
Republican.
The only city in which 1 found any
Wilson sentiment of sny magnitude
was St. Louis, and there many of the
business men are southerners, who are
naturally Democratic, and whose sym
pathies found botb argument and apol
ogy for the Administration and yet
even there the Republican sentiment
wss strong.
Business will not have Wilson.
WE WANT RESULTS
Partisan politics do not play any
great part in the administration of the
affairs of the state legislature. What
the constituents of representatives and
senators want is results. Therefore,
the wise constituency chooses men of
known business ability, men whose
policies are constructive, men broid
enough of mind not to fight to a stub
born bitter end over some trivial point,
men who are willing to give and take
for the best interests of their counties
and their state.
We note in a recent issue of the Ore
gonian a communication from W. A.
Isenberg, chairman of the . Republican
Central committee of Hood River coun
ty, who accuses, the newspapers of
tiood River of a conspiracy to secure
tbe election of Geo. R. Wlbur for state
senatorabip. It so hsppens that this
so-called conspiracy emanated from
Wasco county, the home bailiwick of
F. M. Gill, Republican nominee for
state aenatorsbip. Tbe so-called con
spiracy was fostered by Waaco county
Republicans. And it ie a fact that
local Republicans and representative
men saw in tbe torn ot affairs an op
portunity for tbe election of Mr. Wil
bur. Hood River county shoud have at
least one of tbe three members of tbe
delegation from Hood River and Wasco
counties to the state legislature. Cir
cumstances offer us the chance of get
ting a delegate and a good man in Mr.
Wilbur.
Naturally, no one would expect Mr.
Isenberg as an officer of a Republican
organization of Hood River county to
work for Mr. Wilbur, but the citizens
of tbe eounty will be astonished at this
far fetched criticism. We rather sus
pect that most of tbe people will be
amused.
Hood River county had a mighty good
opportunity of getting a good citizen,
J. R. Nickelsen, as Republican nomi
nee. Mr. Nickelsen would undoubtedly
bave been nominated but for the candi
dacy of J. W. Morton. The scattering
votes Mr. Morton got threw the nomin
ation to Mr. Gill. Under tbe direct
primary, about which Mr. Isenberg
talks in such glowing terms, nominated
one Grant Webster for the vice presi
dency of the United States on the Re
publican ticket. By a few votes it
made impossible the privilege of Hood
River county Republicans supporting
at the general election Mr. Nickelsen,
who was defeated by the small margin
of 24 votes. We will agree with Mr.
Isenberg that Mr. Nickelsen was the
logical man for the nomination. The
Glacier would have been glad to have
seen him nominated and elected. Mr.
Nickelsen is a good business man. But
he wss not nominated. Mr. Wilbur
was. Mr. Wilbur, it is true, ie a Dem
ocrat. The people of Hood River coun
ty know his abilities without any word
from us. We still maintain that he
will get the support of the great ma
jority of Hood River county Republi
cans. We would call another thing to tbe
attention of Mr. Isenberg. Does he
know the political history of Mr. Gill?
We have been informed that Mr. Gill
has been a party man of many parties.
We have been told thst he was once s
Populist. We know that Mr. Isenberg
ought to know that be was not so very
long ago attacking the Republican par
ty and its principles. Mr. Gill chose
then to style himself as a Progressive.
Mr. Gill is now a Republican, the nora
inee of the great party for state sens
torship from Hood River and Wasco
counties. But from his past record, is
be any more entitled to the support of
tbe Republican party tban is Mr. Wil
bur?
There was no "non-partisan game'
being woiked by Hood River papers,
and we think the people of the town
and valley will resent the effort o' Mr
Isenberg to impugn their own and the
motives of tbe newspapers.
ANDERSON AND KELLY
Dr. J. E. Anderson and J. L. Kelly,
tbe regularly nominated Republican
candidates for joint representatvesip
from Hood River and Wasco counties,
op for reelection, have both made en
viable records in tbe legislature. They
handled tho affairs of public interest
si they have bandied their own affairs,
successfully and honestly.
Let these men be returned to the
legislature next winter by a vote that
will show tbem thst their constituents
sppreciate the good work they have
botb accomplished.
REGISTER!
The unregistered electors of Hood
River county, comprising some 700
careless citizens, have just three more
days to attend to this duty. Registra
tion books will close Saturday. Those
who have registered since January 1,
1916, do not have to re-register unless
tbey bave removed from their precinct
Those who were sworn in at tbe pri
mary election, May 19, 1916, and were
not notified by the county clerk that
their registration was incomplete and
had been rejected, are not required to
register again.
Electors living outside the city limits
may register in their own precincts
with the following registrars: A. 0,
Adams, Harry Steele, Frank Fenwick,
Gertrude L. Clark, Wenc Pasheck,
John P. Cooper. John H. Sheldrake
and Carl Johnson.
THE BIG LUMBER DEAL
The purchase by J. W. Palmer and
associates of 330,000,000 feet of lumber
in the national forest in southwestern
Hood River county will be of great
benefit to the business men of this city
and to the entire county. We mayfriow
look forward with certainty to our
long desired rosd to Lost Lake. Other
forest roads will undoubtedly receive a
portion of the proceeds.
Also consider the huge sum that will
be paid out for labor. In 12 years this
vast qusntity of timber will be sold.
Let us suppose that the timber sells
for $10 per thousand. That means a
total of $3,300,000. The larger per
centage of this sum will be paid for la
bor on constructing logging roads, log
ging and otherwise harvesting tbe
great tract.
THE TRAFFIC ORDINANCE
The streets of the city, since tbe
new traffic ordinance became effective
week before last, have tsken on a de
cidedly changed appearance. Citizens
have been quick to learn the new regu
lations, and Hood River is a much saf
er place for motoring. There is a sys
tem to traffic, formerly a jumble.
Still we note thst some thoughtlessly
fail to observe the rules. These
thoughtless ones will no doubt have
their memories jogged by the city offic
ers. When you sre asked to observe
the new ordinsnce, don't blame tbe
officer. He is doing his duty. You do
yours.
The close observance of the new
rules may appear swkward in esses,
just keep following them, however,
and you will soon grow into the habit
and not care to do otherwise. j
Tbe long-distance forecasts of Indian
George would indicate to us the desira
bility of laying in extra supplies for a
hard winter and remembering the
poor. Oregonian.
To keep from getting cinched, re
member today is the last for payment
of tsxes. Getbusy if you have forgot
ten this. -

Olympian, is bsck on the river and is
to shortly enter service between Port
land and The Dalles. She is owned
now by a syndicate of Portland capi
talists headed by J. M. Ay res and Cap

City Council News
The city county Monday night re
fused to allow a bill for $475 Hied by
F. E. Battey, clsiming thst amount for
alleged damages received recently in
an accident on the steel bridge.
The council authorized the purchase
of a gravel pit on Paradise farm.
The latter pert of this month tbe city
recorder's and water office will be
moved to the Smith building in the
room formerly occpuied by the county
library.
Heavy Frost Monday Night
The first killing frost of the year
prevailed over the Hood River valley
Monday night. Beans, tomato plants
and other vegetation were killed. Thin
ice formed in the Upper Valley and
points of high altitude in the Lower
Valley.
The frosts will heighten the color of
red varieties of apples and are wel
comed by apple growers.
Hartigan Sent to Asylum
Ed Hartigan wss again taken into
custody Tuesday afternoon and carried
before Dr. V. R. Abraham, county phy
sician. He wss found unbalanced and
was sent to the Pendleton asylum.
Hartigan was found on the place of
K. K Scott wandering in the orchard.
He imagined thst he wss a machinist
and that each apple tree was a machine
in neea or. repair.
