PROIV.lSE TO REDUCE THE
COST OF LIVINQ
NOT KEPT,
Our opponents promised to re¬ duce tbe cost of bring. This tbey bare failed to do. But tbey did reduce tbe opportunities of making a living. Let us not for¬ get tbe conditlonstbat existed in this country under the new tariff prior to the outbreak of tbe war. Production bad decreased, busi¬ ness was languishing, new enter¬ prises were not undertaken, in¬ stead of expansion there was curtailment and our streets were filled with the unemployed. What ground Is there for expecting better conditions when the un¬ healthy stimulus of tbe war bas spent Its force and our industries and worklngmen are exi>osed to the competition of an energized Europe?
It Is plain tbat we must bare protective upbuilding, policies.— Mr. Hogher' Speech of Accept¬ ance.

Hughes Points the Way
The speech of tbe Uepublican candi¬ date for president wms a keynote speech Indeed. Not (uie i)ersou In the great audience at tlie Caruef^le hall meeting was In doubt for oue moment as to Just what lie luxKint by every¬ thing be said.
His address was cuiprebenslve, logi¬ cal, clear and all sutlicleiit for tbe oc¬ casion. There can be no dispute as to this. Plainly Mr. Ilueiics Is a mun who "knows what be wants when he wants l%" and It Is the opinion of po¬ litical authorities who heard him and wbo bave sln.ce read his remarks tbat | be knows also bow to i^et It.
It was Incumbent ujwn the Republi¬ can candidate to confine the scope of his remarks to the limitations of tbe occasion, but his crushing analysis of i the shortcomings of the present ad- i ministration of the government is j merely an earnest of what tbe tone and the contents of his speeches will ; be when be gets on the stump.
At Carnegie ball Mr, Hughes ad- ! verted to every general question that I Is apt to be a serious Issue in the cam- ; riUSQ Ul^ in language that will be j absofut«y clear to ev«y maB or wo-j man able to read be stated hia opin¬ ions, bis conrlctlons and his purposes. On the stump be will argue those points in detail. As an orator be is eloquen*, his personality attractive, nnd bis marshaling of tacts so co¬ hesive that he holds bis audience to the end. He makes It easy for them to follow bim. and bla points are not lost.
There was nothing equivocal, noth¬ ing apologetic in the Republican can- illdate's speech of acceptance. He (ailed a spade a spade, and tbe unani¬ mous opinion of those who beard bkn was that he shot to the center and rang tbe bell. The Republican cam¬ paign la now open, and those who wUl speak and write and work for tbe suc¬ cess of the Republican ticket can wish for no more adequate campaign docn- ment, no more satisfactory statement of issues than are found In tbe candi¬ date's salutatory^'
DUTY OF THE ADMINI8TRA-
TION TO STOP PLOTS AND
CONSPIRACIES.
We denounce nil plots and consplra<'le8 lu the Interest of any fi^reljin nation. Utterly In¬ tolerable Is tbe u.se of our soil for alien Intrigues. Every Amer¬ ican mu.st unreservedly con¬ demn them and support every effort for their suppression. But here also prompt, vlgorou.s and adequate measures on the part of the administration were need¬ ed. There should bave been no hesitation, no notion that.lt was wise and politic to delay. Such uu abuse of our territory de¬ manded Immediate and thor¬ oughgoing action. As soon as tbe administration bad notice of plots and conspiracies it was its dMty to stop them. It was not lacking in resources. Its re¬ sponsibility for their continu¬ ance cannot be escaped by the condemnation of others.—From ^r^ ^ughes' Speech of Accept- auce.
ADEQUATE FEDERAL WOf»K- MEN'S COMPENSATION LAWS,
I stand for adequate federal workmen's compensation laws, dealing not only with the em¬ ployees of government, but with those employees who are engag¬ ed In Interstate commerce, and are subject to the hazard of In- Jury, so that those activities which are wltLIu the sphere of tbe constitutional authority of congress may be dealt with un¬ der a suitable law.—From Mr. Hughes' Si>eech of Acceptance.

Maater W. Wal«o Curly, of Val¬ entine street, Roosevelt, a litte lad of 3 years and 1 month, picked ¦ quart ot buckelberrles and sold tbem. His arst eambigs. This Is the grit tbat makes residents for our Nation. The little chap was much Interested at strawberry time as he saw the youngsters pass on tbe way to tke stfawberrr fleld and be too wanted to pick. One day be saw tbe owner of the Held and be said to him, "Will you give me a job picking straw¬ berries T"
The owner had to laugh and said, "Well, my Uttle man, when you get big enough I certainly will." Bless the little chap's heart, huckleberries are free to every one, and he is showing us that be meant what ke said; he wanted a Job. Tbe buyer of tbe berries says that of all tbe berries he ever twught, they were more free from defects as stems, green or half ripe ones. His ability Is wonderful.

Not (uie i)ersou In the great audience at tlie Caruef^le hall meeting was In doubt for oue moment as to Just what lie luxKint by every¬ thing be said. His address was cuiprebenslve, logi¬ cal, clear and all sutlicleiit for tbe oc¬ casion. There can be no dispute as to this. Plainly Mr. Ilueiics Is a mun who "knows what be wants when he wants l%" and It Is the opinion of po¬ litical authorities who heard him and wbo bave sln.ce read his remarks tbat be knows also bow to i^et It. It was Incumbent ujwn the Republi¬ can candidate to confine the scope of his remarks to the limitations of tbe occasion, but his crushing analysis of i the shortcomings of the present ad- i ministration of the government is j merely an earnest of what tbe tone and the contents of his speeches will ; be when be gets on the stump. At Carnegie ball Mr, Hughes ad- ! verted to every general question that I Is apt to be a serious Issue in the cam- ; riUSQ Ul^ in language that will be j absofut«y clear to ev«y maB or wo-j man able to read be stated hia opin¬ ions, bis conrlctlons and his purposes. On the stump be will argue those points in detail. As an orator be is eloquen, his personality attractive, nnd bis marshaling of tacts so co¬ hesive that he holds bis audience to the end. He makes It easy for them to follow bim. and bla points are not lost. There was nothing equivocal, noth¬ ing apologetic in the Republican can- illdate's speech of acceptance. He (ailed a spade a spade, and tbe unani¬ mous opinion of those who beard bkn was that he shot to the center and rang tbe bell. The Republican cam¬ paign la now open, and those who wUl speak and write and work for tbe suc¬ cess of the Republican ticket can wish for no more adequate campaign docn- ment, no more satisfactory statement of issues than are found In tbe candi¬ date's salutatory^' DUTY OF THE ADMINI8TRA- TION TO STOP PLOTS AND CONSPIRACIES. We denounce nil plots and consplra<'le8 lu the Interest of any fi^reljin nation. Utterly In¬ tolerable Is tbe u.se of our soil for alien Intrigues. Every Amer¬ ican mu.st unreservedly con¬ demn them and support every effort for their suppression. But here also prompt, vlgorou.s and adequate measures on the part of the administration were need¬ ed. There should bave been no hesitation, no notion that.lt was wise and politic to delay. Such uu abuse of our territory de¬ manded Immediate and thor¬ oughgoing action. As soon as tbe administration bad notice of plots and conspiracies it was its dMty to stop them. It was not lacking in resources. Its re¬ sponsibility for their continu¬ ance cannot be escaped by the condemnation of others.—From ^r^ ^ughes' Speech of Accept- auce. ADEQUATE FEDERAL WOf»K- MEN'S COMPENSATION LAWS, I stand for adequate federal workmen's compensation laws, dealing not only with the em¬ ployees of government, but with those employees who are engag¬ ed In Interstate commerce, and are subject to the hazard of In- Jury, so that those activities which are wltLIu the sphere of tbe constitutional authority of congress may be dealt with un¬ der a suitable law.—From Mr. Hughes' Si>eech of Acceptance. - John Schneider Staple & Fancy Groceries ALL 1»ELI("ATKSSE\ GOODS FRUITS AMJ VEiiETABLES MEATS AND POULTRY If you are Interested In reli¬ able goods, honest weights and fair prices, call to see us at any time.
