Columbus, O, Oct. 31. Charlei E.
Hughes last night replied to Presi
dent Wilson's . speech at ' Shadow
Lawn Saturday, i Mr: Hughes . rr
ferred to the occasion as "a little festi
val of self-glorification" among "our
opponents", in which they celebrated
the birth of freedom and described
themselves as the generous forces of
of the age and world." I -' ,
"The eulogy needed one "further
touch," Mr. Hughes declared, "and that
was to celebrate the policy that led
to the slaughter at Vera Cruz and
Carnal." . , ; , - , .,
, The Underwood and Adamson bills
were characterized as being in the
"whimsical domain of topsy-turvy-dom"
and "may be hailed as the
guardians of American enterprise and
American labor." Business had been
placed, as it was claimed, on a differ-
r . If 1 -J
ent tooling, Mr. nugnes saiu.
Slippery Footing.
"And it is a very slippery footing,1
he added. '
Mr. Hughes declared his opponents
were a little out ot their reckoning
in claiming that "business had been
relieved of a nervous fear of the
courts" that what business really
leared was vague legislation, two
faced laws." government by 'hold up'
and an "administration which treats
business men as suspicious charac
ters." .
The noiriinee waa due to address
hit audience here at 8 o'clock. In
stead he began hit address at 9:45.
A lorn torchlight oarade which he
reviewed and crowds of republicans
trotn every section ot utiio. which
choked the street! between hit hotel
and Memorial hall caused the long
delay.
The last of the audience had been
in their seats, waiting, two, and one-
Halt flours before tie began to speak.
The early arrivals had been sitting
nearly tour noura. ..
Thousands of oersons, who' could
not gain entrance to the hall, were
addressed outside in overflow meet
mm, oy otner sneakers.
The crowd which witnessed the
parade packed the greater portion of
tjiapitoi square, opposite tne notel
where Mr. Hughes was staying. The
nominee reviewed the parade for an
hour and a half and left It still pass-
ing. For four blocks between the
hall and the hotel the crowd was so
dense that Mr. Hughes' car had to
creep at a snail space. .
' Stopped in Jam. ' !
' About a block from the hall it came
to a atop in the jam, surrounded by
thousands of persons who called on
him for a speech. He. finally: arose.
"I would like to speak to you,1' he
said) "but I cannot do to. The crowd
in th hall ha been waiting a long
time and my' (voice w poor.': rti':l y
l liey cheered this and the.: police
nnauy extricated ni car irom tne
throngs. With a squad of policemen
leading the way, the car finally
reached the hall.' .
As in previous speeches today in
Ohio, Mr. Hughes Made the tariff
hi, chief theme tonight. Ill replyinif
to statements 01 t resident vvnson
sueecn. Mr. Hushes oaid:
"The other day our opponents hid
a little festival of t-.ll glorification
They conferred upon themselves the
highest honors they could bestow.
They celebrated the birth of freedom,
They-.had emancipated, they ', said,
orettv kmuch everything and every
body.'! Finding no lesser praise to be
adequate they finally described them
selves as the generous fqrees of' the
age .ana oi tne worm.
S -. Humanity Will Be Routed.
"For these, they say. will be thrown
back in discouragement and confusion
in: the event of their defeat. 'They
ay in effect, that if a majority of
my fellow countrymen elect me, hu
manity will be routed.1
"This delicate tribute to my own
endeavora I keenly appreciate. The
eulogy needed only one further touch,
and that was to celebrate the- policy
that led to the (laughter at Vera
Cruz and Carrizal. These, I suppose,
would be regarded by the generous
forces of the -age as peace parties:
and in the same whimsical domain of
topsy-tucveydqm the Underwood and
Adamson bill; may be hailed as the
. guardians of American enterprise and
of American labor, , -''We
are told that the business and
the hit of the country nave been put
upon a new footing. This is true.
Apd ft is a Very slippery footing.

i"We were told that business had

the courts. I think our opponents are
a ' Httle .out of their reckoning. It
Is: not fear of the courts that
makes honest business nervous, but
fear of vague legislation: of two-faced
laws passed by compromising law
makers intended to mean one thing
to one group and quite another to
, another group, leaving to the courts
' the difficulties of interpretation after

governmental administration; of an
administration which treats business
men as suspicious characters: of gov

our highest departments on a basis
of mere partisan expediency; of effort
spoke, and the hall, was crowded
with an audience that interrupted
him from time to time to cheer and
to voice its own comments on what
he said. These were of a friendly
nature except once when a group
of men cheered for President Wilson.
That was after Mr. Hughes had de
clared, "We cannot afford to open
our markets to the products ot un
In opening his speech Mr. Hughes
paid a tribute to William McKinley.
"I have been standing," he said, "for
a long time reviewing a great parade
m a place eloquent with the memories
of the martyred McKinley, soldier,
representative, governor, president, a
gentle husband, a great statesman and
a true-hearted friend.
I could not but recall the time
when the prestige of the nation was
very high; its international influence
very great, and the demonstration of
the passing throng was significant. to
my mind of a dominant patriotic senti
ment which is to show the deep feel
ing of this country that the rights of
American citizens must be safeguard
ed throughout the world, and the hon
or of the American name established
What an extraordinary assertton.it
is to say that any one who criticises
the policies of the administration must
be in lavor ot war. ,-
Sure' Pathway to Honor.
A vote for me does not mean a
vote for war, but it docs mean a vote
for maintaining of American rights
throughout the world. ' t . ,
"Therein, 1 think, "lies' the sure path-.
way to national Honor, moral influ
ence, international prestige and of a
lasting security." ' . .
After reiterating his views on the
tariff Mr. Hughes said:
"As I look upon the America of the
future the question is not at all' what
office you hold, There are some peo
ple Who think that it is a great thing
to hold high office. I have held some
high offices and I have been in a po
sition to observe affairs, and I tell
you that the office means the burden
of responsibility every moment and
there, is no satisfaction, so far as I can
see in having anything to do with pub
lic office except with the idea that
you are helping things ahead and deal
ing with things that are of some serv
ice and of some benefit to your fel
low man. That is all there is to pub
lic service. ',
The nominee again assailed the ad
ministration for the enactment of the
Adamson law. .
"The great object, he said, "is
to get things settled rightly and you
Can not get' things settled rightly
unless you attend to them in the right
way,' " - . , '; . i, ; . f
"I say that if there is any griev.
ance. whether it affects-labor-or capi
tal tli at comes before me in the event
of my election, I propose to get the
very last 'fact and to understand it
as well as it may oe understood."
Protective Tariff Hi Theme. ,
- Mr. Hughes went through indus
trial cities of Ohio' today, making
the protective tariff Ms chief theme
of discussion. Before audiences at
East Liverpool, Wellsville, Steuben-
ville,' s Mingo Junction, Deoniton,
Zanesville and here tonight the nomi
nee declared, that America i was not
oreoared to! meet the commercial
competition of n 'etiergii;dr Europe
alter tne war ana mar American in
dustry wilt suffer in those day were
It not protected.
Mr. Hughes was received by au
diences which cheered him freauently,
At East Liverpool, first stop of the
day, he spoke in the open air, his
voice. - combating the noise of the
street 'traffic , before, an audience that
could hear only a part of what he
said. At Wellsville scores of railroad
employed in flielr overalls crowded
around the rear platform of his car
-and applauded hi brief address. At
Mingo junction tne, wnistie ot tne
big steel plant and many locomo
tives in the yards proclaimed his ar
rival and hundreds of workers clamb
ered over the high fence to hear hint.
Thati.aoolauded nhn freauently. v.f
Manv were turned awav from the
hall at Zanesville, where Mr. Hughes
After the Wilson cheer had sub
sided, Mr, Hughes continued:
"This it not an idle dream, be

who are excited to some maniftsta

have reason to know, if foreign com
petition-was to. be met with what it

the streets looking for
work.
. Cite Hurley' Statement.
In his' East Liverpool speech Mr.
Hughes touched upon statements m
President Wilson's Cincinnati ad
dress. He declared that the $1000,-
000,000 iitcrease- in American exports
represented "almost exclusively' the
demand ot turope lor American
goods created by the war, The nomi
nee also cited a recent statement at
tributed to Chairman Hurley of the
Federal Trade commission, to uphold
the contention that America is not
prepared to meet the competition ot
fcuropean nations alter tne war.
"Let me tell vou tins, he told tne
crowd at Steubenville, "the iron and
steel manufacturing establishments of
Europe scarcely have been touched
by the war. On the contrary, the
war itselt has caused great increase
in the efficiency and productivity of
those establishments. Further than
that the raw materials used in iron
and steel manufacture have not been
touched by the war. ; .
' Ready' To Produce.
"These thev are: they have got
their raw materials, they have their
manufacturing plant; they have their
men, and they are ready to produce.

this trade, not only here but through
out the world, and not only win
American labor, lose the opportuni
ties that it now hat, created by the
war, but it will have to compete with
the lower paid labor of Europe.
"It is no time tor men to go tnrougn
the country saying America is ready.
It is not ready. - America has got its
Underwood bill and it has not in the
ranks of our opponents any disposi
tion to change it. They have got their
doctrine to which they have adhered
for generations.' They say we will
give vou a tariff commission, I be
lieve in a tariff commission. We want
the facts, but they talk aDout the tar-
iff commission at though it were a
legislative body, as though it had
some authority to pass tariff bills.
They know very well that they will
nit in ennffress receivinsr.the reDorts
of the tariff commission and giving
such attention to them as they may
desire.

can industry, you have got to have a

majority in congress that believes in
protecting American industry, and 1
cannot conceive of a people to abso
lutely lost to common sense as to sup
pose that in Ohio and in a place like
this, you would ever put, a majority
in power that believed in the principle
of the Underwood bill.
"What an extraordinary thing it
is," he said, "that this country which,
through the protective principle, has
built these great industries, should
think for a moment of an abandon
ment of that principle when all the
other great nation of the world are
adopting it.
"There are some people who seem
to think that if you are going to build
a house you can have windows and
doors, and various things pertaining
to the upper stories, and get along
without any foundation at alt. Now, I
am not interested in that kind of archi
tecture. Foundation Necessary.
; "If you are going to have a parlor
in .which you can entertain your
friends, and a dining room in which
you can sit down to a good square
meal, and a bay-window which will
command a beautiful outlook on the
world, you have got to have a foun
dation for your house. '
: "And the foundation in American
life it chance to work; the founda
tion in American life it a chance to
have plants that are busy; the founda
tion in American lite is to get behind
American enterprise and make it hum
so long as it is honest and straight
and fair. That it what 1 stand for."

From the beginning Studebaker has recognized that Ser
vice in connection with the purchase of a motor car is just
as vital to its operating efficiency as the high grade ma
terials and workmanship that go into its construction.
In fact Studebaker does not consider Its responsibility fully
discharged until every detail of care and, operation is
thoroughly understood by the owner. s . ,
To thi end there has been established what Is known as Studebaker
DEFINITE Service. This consists of a thorough inspection of every
Studebaker car, at regular Intervals, for a period of six months
after purchase. Not only does this guard against motor troubles
which prevail in any car, but it educates the owner to the proper
' care of his car so that he can get 100 pleasure and usefulness
-from it every day in the year, j
You are Invited to come in and see how Studebaker DEFINITE
Service ia operated to the benefit of the user. , ' . "
