FARGO'S HEARTY GREETING
Striking Points in Speech
of Hughes at St. Paul
"TREASONABLE, adequate prc-
Xvparcdncss is n primary na
tional duty, and if I am elected I
propose to see as far as in me lies
that that duty is discharged to the
credit of the American people."
"Any American soldier killed in
Mexico is killed by American bul
lets." "A punitivo expedition they call
it. The only punishment we in
flicted was on ourselves. We pun
ished nobody else."
"We are a spirited people. We aro
a pcoplo who can protect themselves.
Wc are not too proud to fight."
"I am a strong party man, but I
believe in narty organization as the
'servant of a democratic pcoplo."
By PERRY ARNOLD
FARGO, N. D., Auk. 10. Charles Evans
Hushes, from the effete. East, Is out to
capture the farmor vote. The Republican
nomlneo got his first cltmpso ot hickory
shirts and the "gallus" as a presidential
candidate today.
Fargo gave him a royal welcome.
Farmers from everywhere about camo In
their automobiles to hear tho former Justice
of the Supremo Court expound his doctrlno
of Republicanism.
Particular Interest centered In Hughes's
appearance In North Dakota today because,
of the suspicion of politicians that tho
0. 0.P. candidate Is sotting out deliberately
ttf kidnap North Dakota's famous Farmers'
Non-partisan League.
Up In tho Northwest this farmers' al-
llanco represents n new thing In politics.
According to ex-Ueprosentatlve Manahan,
i, who. stumped North Dakota recently to? tho
1 league. Just before It carried the nomina-
, tlon of virtually nil Its candidates In both
' ' old parties at tho primaries, tho lenguo will
again be successful In the fall elections so
far as the State ticket Is concerned and will
eject professionals from control. Then,
according to Manahan, they Will enact laws
for State-owned elevators, revision of the
tax laws, mutual Insurance ngalnst hall
and other Progressive plans.
Sponsors for Hughes aro hoping that the
jiepuintcan , canuiuato will carry such a
convincing message to farmers In North
Dakota today and tomorrow, that bolng al
ready well organized, they will swing that
atrength to tho G. O. P.
With such a swing they count on further
farm strength from other States.
Hughes has a busy program today and
tomorrow. Only two set speeches were
scheduled for today at Fargo and Grand
Forks but It was expected that the can
didate would find opportunity for several
rear-platform talks. Tho Governor's voice
was Improved today and there, was less
hoarseness, although he plainly showed the
strain qf his campaigning. Despite the hot
weather the candidate still stuck manfully
to his 'tolled" shirt, stand-up 'wing collar
and white vest, but In all of his talks tho
shirt, collar and veat wilted away In short
order.
Mrs. Hughes wore her "No. 2" hat a
almple narrow whtte-brlmmed affair. She
has worn No. 1 a dark one. quite plain
just once since leaving Drldgehampton, and
that was at Niagara Falls.

nnd Brldgo Commission, which Is booming
the project for the erection of a bridge
across tho Delaware River between Cnmden

Politicians wcro by no means tho solo at
traction 'at tho picnic grounds. Farmers
and their families began to arrive early In
order to get the choice places In tho groves
for parking their nutomoblles'and horse
drawn rigs, there being a decided shrinkage
In tho number of the latter, as a largo ma
jority of tho grangers turned out In their
own automobiles. Some of the farmers
drovo their largo motortrucks, but Instead
of cartlhg along farm produco thoy packed
them full of neighbors and their families
and brought them along for the day's out
ing. At noon sumptuous fnrm dlnnera were
spread In every available nook In and
around tho park.
Tho army of pleasure seekers put In this
morning visiting tho exhibition buildings
and Inspecting tho exhibits of mnchincry
and farm produce. Many new models In
labor-saving dovlees for the farm aro being
displayed this year, but the farmers aro
showing most Interest In motors for busi
ness and pleasure.
With potatoes $3 a barrel at the shipping
stations, this being tho highest price the
tubers havo reached In the last three or
four years, the grangers could afford today
to take- more than one. look nt tho tempting
array of new models of motorcars which aro
shown along "Machinery Row This Is
also n "money year" for tomatoes and other
farm crops, and the automobile and ma
chinery agents know that tho farmers are
good spenders when they've got the ready
cash.
Tho South Jersey Farmers' Exchange, n
co-operative organization which operates
nearly a scora of buying stations In tho
potato belt, has an attractive exhibit of
potatoes and other produco In the grangers'
building. In this building the various
granges of tho county also have a varied
exhibit of prize fruits and vegetables, run
ning anywhere from fresh strawberries of
the everbearing variety to big peaches and
still bigger watermelons and pumpkins,
The park began to till up rapidly with
throngs of pleasure seekers around noon
today.

SUFFRAGISTS PLAN
CAMPAIGN TODAY
Contlnned from fata One
passing It quickly, they declared today,
thoso 4,000,000 votes aro going to go Re
publican, or Prohibition, or Progrcsslvo, or
Socialist, or wherever they will do tho moat
good Or harm.
To back up their threat to rock the boat
In tho coming election, tho women have fig
ures which, they say, ought to frighten oven
tho healthiest Democrat. Ono of thorn Is
that they control enough votos In each of
tho 12 "Buff" States to elect cither a Re
publican or a Democrat.
Mies Anno Martin, of Reno, chairman of
tho National Commtttco of tho party, will
prcsldo tonight
MRS. HILtiES TAIrtCS.
"Until nil tho women of tho United States
arc free, nono of them aro frco," declared
Mrs. Hlllcs, of Wilmington. Mrs. Hlllcs.ls
a Domocrat and tho daughter of tho Into
Thomas Bayard, secretary of Stato under
Cleveland nnd this country's first Am
bassador to Great Britain.
After reciting how nt tho first hearing
of the Congressional Union beforo tho
IIouso Judiciary Committee "tho chairman
and some of tho members characterized
their actions by 111 breeding, discourtesy
and gross Injustice," Mrs. Hlllcs said:
"Tho sooner tho women of this country,
moro than half of whom nro unrepresented
In Government, nwaken to tho fact that
this Is tho kind of unjust treatment to
which their most vital Interests nro sub
jected, tho sooner will there rise, as In
deed It has arisen, a tldo of action that
will put an end to such tactics. Individual
liberty Is tho essential basis of free gov
ernment, and under our form of govern
ment both political expediency nnd politi
cal Justlco demand tho national enfran
chisement of women.
"The hopeless task of State referendums
has taught women tho necessity for con
centration on tho Federal amendment. Un
doubtedly enough States nro now won to
enable tho most skeptical observer to sco
that tho political power already In the
Lhands of women themselves Is sufficient to
win freedom for nil women."

Tho predicted drop In the price of iraso

tlio larse oil companies In thla State early
today. Tho new cost per gallon Is 24 cents
to consumers r.nd 22 cents to dealers, mak
ing a reduction of 1 cent In tho former

This good news for automoliillsts follows
a further reduction of gaaollne In the State

tho consumer nrd from 23 cents to 21 cents
to garages. Tho movement of decline Is
general throughout tho country. Reports
from vnrloui points In the United States
Indlcato that a further cut may be expected
nt any Urn. Several reasons prompting
today's action wcro given by malingers ot
locnl branch."! of tho oil companies.
Ono manager said tho new reduction In
New Jersey was directly responsible for the
cut. Stotorlsts from Philadelphia and vicin
ity purchased gasollno In Camden nt a
cheaper rate than here. An effort was mndo
to regulnto tho cost per gallon In Pennsyl
nla to ngrco with that of New Jersey, but
It arrived too late.
Another manager pointed out tho fact
that tho prlco of gasollno was largely regu
lated by tho cost of crudo oil. Tho recent
brenks In that market. Included a &-cent
drop reported early this morning In tho
eastern markets, which quoted $2.36 for a
42-galIOn barrel. Tho Oklahoma mnrkct
