Signature of HUGHES ASSAILS WILSON TARIFF No Shrinking From Just War; Protect American Bights Abroad Tacoma, Wash., Aug:. 16. Charles E. Hughes told an audience In Tacoma's station yesterday that he would not shrink from war in enforc ing American rights abroad. He read the Democratic program of 1912 de claring for protection of American rights abroad. "I want that made real," the nominee said. "I do not think in making that real that we encounter the danger of war. 1 would not shrink from it If we did in performing the obvious duty." Mr. Hughes confined his remarks al most wholly to what he termed the need for a protective tariff. "I propose a wise tariff without abuses." he said, "but frankly a tariff to build and maintain American Indus tries." Mr. Hughes reviewed Democratic tariff legislation and the Democratic platform plank of 1912 relating to the tariff. "Our opponents said they would re duce the cost of living," he said. "Be hold the result. Through an unfor tunate development in the Republican party, which is now happily healed, our opponents got into power, and they did not reduce the cost of living. We don't propose that the shortcomings of the Administration with respect to the protection of American industries shall be forgotten. They want to forget them. They think that the European war, like charity, covers a multitude of sins." Mr. Hughes referred to a statement issued by Secretary McAdoo soon after the war started in 1914, in which it was announced that $500,000,000 in emergency currency was available to relieve financial stress. "Our opponents had to resort to a Republican measure of prevaution, the Vreeland law." he said, "to still the f" .r that their policy had engendered among the people of this country. It was the Republican measure that took us through that critical period." Reverting to the tarifT. Mr. Hughes asked why the Democratic party want ed a tariff commission. "Do they want a tariff commission for the purpose of carrying out the protective principle, not block, it?" The antidumping provision of the pending revenue bill was discussed by Mr. Hughes. "I have had some experience with statutes," he said, "and if that statute works it will be a tremendous surprise to me." REPUBLICAN CHAIRMAN BELIEVES PARTY WII.L CARRY' MAINE Sfecial to the Tele graph New York. Aug. 16.—William R. Will cox, Republican national chairman, speaking about the election in Maine, said: "From information coming direct from the State the situation may be said to be encouraging. There are side issues in the campaign not entirely political. One of these is State-wide prohibition versus local option. It will be a factor in this year's right. "Of course, there are other issues. The sectionalism of the present national Administration does not set well in Maine, and I am told that the Mexi can ar.d foreign polfcies of the Presi dent are regarded with little respect. "As to the outcome, Maine is nor mally Republican and seldom elects Democratic electors. Now the Pro gressive vote, I am told, is practically merged with the Republican, and if this information is correct we may reasonably expect to carry the State all along the line." WHITE HOUSE DENIES REPORT Special to tiie Telegraph Washington, D. C., Aug. 16. The White House has made public a letter from Charles M.
