These latter pointed to the following por

contention:
"There Is not a thread In It (the flag) but
I scorns self-indulgence nnd weakness."

SPEECH BY IIUHHES GIVES
HITCHCOCK LINE ON VIEWS
Regarded as Clean-Cut Statement on
Public Affairs
CHICAOO. Juno G. "The statement
speaks for Itself ; comment Is unnecessary ,"
was the announcement inntle today by Frank
H. Jlltc'icock when nslted regarding Justice
Hughes' speech In Washington Inst night.
Hitchcock maintained tho same air of
calm certainty that ho has adopted ever
Blnce he started headquarters here for
Hughes.
The Hughes speech was adjudged by his
own volunteer workers ns the nenrcst to n
clear-cut definition of where the former
Governor stands ns It wns possible for a
Justlco of the Supreme Court to make. It
was held by the Progressives to be entirely
too Impalpable of application to present
Issues to give n satisfactory Idea on the
Justice's views.
The fnvorlte sons viewed the flag speech
as merely a patriotic talk which very
properly ought not to be construed ns a
creed of faith.
The Hughes opposition admitted tho
speech gave Frank Hitchcock, the Justice's
self-appointed agent here, his first tangible
line on whero his candidate stood.

THIEF GETS $300
Disdain for Locks Costs Butcher Shop
Proprietor That Sum
The first bit of money that Joseph
Snmuelsohn lays his hands on Is going for
a nice big lock. Up till today Samuelsohn
wns not very strong for locks. Ho never
used them, although ho kept money around
the house.
But now he's changed his mind, and n
stranger helped him do It. Samuelsohn
keeps n butcher shop on the northwest
corner of 31st nnd Is'orrls streets. In n
rafe he kept $300. The safe wns unlocked
and stood near a door leading to a cellar
which was also unlocked. Xot far from
the foot of the cellnr steps was another
pair of steps leading through a trap door
to the street. The trap door was ulso
unlocked. The gentleman who Is $300 richer
through Samuelsohn's disdain for locki
didn't even have to use a Jimmy. The doors
were found slightly ajar today where they
had been pushed gently open.

Who believe that the perpetuity of our tin

We have set forth to tho Hepubllcan
