Roosevelt Applauds ! Haghes' Speech TOeoAora Roosevelt cat ts a box at Darn acts Hall when Mr. Huxhas defer ared his speocb of acooptaseo and rigorously applauded ersry ffflng Tha Colonel repeatedly aroee end bowed In responee to the cheer* Car kin and the shouts of "Teddy!" Tsdfcrl" "Hairat for Teddy!", and when ke meeting adjourned be Hade tbe wish to aa£ attention to^etoUowb* points: "1 em partfoalarly pleaoed with the . exposure of the folly, end wotee than " fatly, of Mr. W 11*00 'e Mexican policy ■ and of the way in which this policy : has brought humiliation to the United Btotee and disaster to Merioo Itself. I "Moreover, I am very glad of the j ■tjatebtfarward In which Mr. ' Hughes ha* shown Che ridicule with I which Mr. Wilson be* covered this na- ' > Bon by the manner In which be at- ; . towed foreign power* to gain the Im- | preesion that although he used the atiougeet worde in diplomacy they were not to be taken *erioualy. Not Words Which Count, j "A* Mr. Hughee said, it is not words 1 but the strength and resolution behind the words which count As Mr. i Hughes pointed out there is no doubt that if Mr. Wilson's conduct and action had been such as to make the foreign nations believe that he meant precisely what he said id his "strict tccountahQitv' there would have been | no destruction of American Uvea by the sinking of the Lugltnnla "When Mr. Hughes uses strong words his record shows that they are always backed by strong deeds, and therefore in the enormous majority of eeaee the use of strong words readere tt unnecessary over to have isuuaisc to strong deeds. "Again, Mr. Hughes speaks tn char Mtartstiaally straightforward fashion of tha outrages committed an mo- ■ Melons plants, and sAl men, whether Nltaiiia of owr own land, who bad to my shape or way shotted or condoned those actions can understand that Mr. Hughee. if President, will protect these domestic American interests and punish offender* against them with the fearlessness and thoroughness that he showed in dealing with tbe powers of evil at Albany. ( Brought Nation to Ignominy. "Jrat before coming lg to listen to Mr. Hughes' Jnst characterization of | Mr. Wilson's failure to protect the t ttvas and property of Americans to t Mexico and on the high seas, I hap- ] pened to pick up John Flake's "Critical Period of American History." and was j ■truck by the following two sentences: , "'A government touches tbe lowest 1 point of ignominy when it confesses I Its inability to protect tbe Uvea and t the property of its citizens. A gov- 1 ■Tranent which has come to this has ) tolled to discharging the primary function of government and forthwith [ c rairs to have any reason tor exist- 1 tog-' "Mr. Hughes has pointed oat to his I cpeech with self-restraint, but with ' emj&asis, that it is precisely this primary function which Mr. Wilson's Administration has failed to discharge and that it is precisely this point of Ignominy to which be has reduced the nation over which be is President." g A POLICY OF FIRMNESS AND g 8 CONSISTENCY NEEDED. g c D g li 8 Tbe Nation has no policy of g t 8 aggression toward Mexico. We g 5 have no desire for any part of § p C her territory. We wish her to § v j 8 have peace, stability, and proa g 0 | 8 perity. We shall have to adopt g c 8 a new policy, a policy of firm- g n j 8 ness and consistency through g a j S which alone we can promote an 8 1 8 enduring friendship. We de- fi £ R maud from Mexico the protec- 0 0 | 8 tion of the lives and the prop- g £ § erty of our citizens and the se- 8 S | 8 enrity of our border from depre- g £ X datious. Much will be gained 8 5 8 if Mexico is convinced that we 8 g o contemplate no meddlesome in- 8 5 ! g terference with what does not 8 g ! o concern us, but that we propose 8 £j I 8 to insist in a firm and candid q g J 5 manner upon the performance 8 g Ij 5 of international obligations. To 8 g 8 a stable government, appropri- 8 8 | § ately discharging its interna- 3 S j 8 lional duties, we should give un- 8 8 g grudging support A short perl- 5 8 8 -od of firm, consistent and 8 8 1 X friendly dealing will accomplish g o ! 8 more tlir-n many years A vacll- g 8 j 8 latior. — From Mr. Hughes' 8 8 | P speech of acceptance.

' FOR A MERCHANT MARINE I WITHOUT FEDERAL COMPETITION. Again, w» must hand up our merchant marine It wlli not aid to put the Govemmeot into 1 competition wttir private ownera. That, it seema to me, la a counsel of folly. A surer way of destroying the promise of our foreign tfade oould hardly he do- ' vised. R has well been asked— DoeS the Government Intend to j operate si a profit or at a lose? We need the encouragement and [ protection of Government tor our shipping industry, but it cannot afford to have the Government as a competitor. — fYom Mr. Hughes' speech of accept- j uice. I DECRYING INTERFERENCE, WE INTERFERED IN MEX- 5 ICO EXA8PERATINGLY. 2 Tbe dealings of the Admlnia- \ ! iration with Mexico constitute a }> confused chapter of blunders, t We have not helped Mexico. She 5 | lies prostrate. Impoverished. < I famine-stricken, overwhelmed 5 with tbB woes and outrages of eJ internecine strife, the helpless 5 rictim of a condition of anarchy 3 which the course of the Admin- | istration only served to promote. 1 For ourselves, we have witnessed the murder of our cltl- 1 Bens and the destruction of their property. We have mad# ensdies, not friends. Instead st commanding respect and deserving good will by sincerity, firmneea, and consistency, we 2 provoked misapprehension and deep resentment. In the light of the oonduc" of the Admin1 istration no one could under i stand its professions. Decrying i interference, we interfered moat 1 exasperattafly. We have not | even kept out of aotual conflict. and the soil of Mexico is stained with the blood of our soldiers. We have resorted to , § physical Invasion, only to retire 1 j 5 without gaining the professed | s object It is a record which 5 5 cannot be examined without a j 2 profound sense of humlBatk*.— | ! From Mr. Hughee' spaeok of j acceptance. Much la Now Left of the Baltimore Platform T The President had boldly signed th# Pork River and Harbor bill, and his facile pen la dripping with Ink eager attach Itaelf to a Pork Public bllL The friendliest apologists of Che **rt In lhe f"301*4-1® waste of money wrung from ths people by oppressive taxation have nothing better to say for him than that Is hardly fair to expect a man to "I forbid!" in this Presidential year when he Ja a. candidate. The foregoing words describing tha profiigate waste of tbe people's money with Executive approval are taken without change from a plank of the platform on which Wood row Wilson elected In 1812: "We denounce the profligate waste of money wrung from the people by oppressive taxation through th* lavish appropriations of recent Re- , publican Congresses, which have kept taxes high and rednoed tbe I purchasing power of the people's j toll. We demand a return to that simplicity and economy which befits a democratic government." How much Is now left of the prtn 1 ciples declared and tbe promisee reg j at Baltimore as Inducements citizens to vote for Wilson. Possibly it Is because he sad his party have been such reckless, such | wholesale repudiatore of the pledges j of 1912 that few people remember or I to remember what pledges were made In his behalf about forty days at St Louis. — New York 8un. I g ADEQUATE NATIONAL 8 DEFENSE DEMANDED 8 § We demand adequate national 3 1 8 defense; adequate protection on 5 8 both bur Western and Eastern 5 S coasts. We demand thorough- 3 8 ness and efficiency In both arms 5 g of the service. It seems to be c g plain that our regular army Is 5 , § too small. We are too great 5 S a country to require of our citi- 5 ' S zens who are engaged In peace- 5 1 g ful vocations the sort of mill- 5 , " g tary service to which they are 5 8 now milled. As well Insist that J 1 X our citizens In this metropolis ? . 8 be summoned to put out fires | 1 . 8 and police the streets. 'We do ? . S not count it inconsistent with 2 8. our liberties, or with our demo- g , ' 8 cratic ideals, to have an ade- J j 8 quate police force. With a pop- } , 1 8 ulation of nearly one hundred ? j 8 millions we need to be surer 3 1 8 of ourselves than to become f I 5 alarmed at the prospect of hav- . ing a regular army which can g reasonably protect our border, | ® and perform such other military B service as may be required. In absence of a grave emerg gency. I believe, further, that 5 there should be not only a rea- < sonable Increase in the regular j army, but that the first eitlasn reserve subject to call shomld : be enlisted as a Federal army i "ained under Federal auj thority. — From Mr. Hughes' | ^eecb of acceptance. d
