Yarmouth has never "been a naval base, but played a strange part in a sort of civil war with the barons of the Cinque porta during the middle ages. The barons attempted to annex the great herring metropolis, but Yar mouth, with characteristic independ ence. fiercely and continuously resisted their control by force of arms. A des perate sea fight took place off the har bor between a Yarmouth squadron and a fleet from the Cinque ports, in which twenty-five ships were sunk and thir ty-seven damaged.—London Mail. HUGHES DODGESISSDE ON EIGHT HOUR LAW Attacks Wilson's Plan, but Won't Say What He Would Have Done. ONLY WAY TO AVERT STRIKE. Republican Nominee Is Asked to De clare if He Would Have Vetoed the Bill With the Certain Assurance of Industrial Disaster to the Country. So busy kas been Charles E. Hughes criticising the deeds of the Wilson ad ministration that he has had little time to tell or has purposely evaded telling the public what he would have done had he been president under sim ilar circumstances. Lately Mr. Hughes has turned his attacks upon President Wilson's suc cessful settlement of the crisis in the railroad world by causing to be passed by congress the Adamson eight hour bill. Mr. Hughes has characterized ttds action as a "surrender to force;" he is "opposed to being dictated to by any power on earth before the facts are known," and he would not act un til he had had a "fair investigation and candid treatment" Taking issue with the Republican candidate's attitude, the New York Times in an editorial asks: "What would Mr. Hughes have done?" "Well, what way would Mr. Hughes have taken?" continues the Times. "What would he have done? Here was Mr. Wilson's position: The broth erhoods refused arbitration; the rail road presidents would not accept the settlement Mr. Wilson proposed, grant ing the eight hour standard day, with provision for an impartial inquiry into its working. There was no law on the statute books to enforce arbitra tion. "The president knew, knew with cer tainty and beyond question, that he could not get such a law from the congress now in session. The sure and inevitable alternative to his ac ceptance of the eight hour standard day measure was a strike, the suspen sion of railway service, freight and passenger, all over the country, begin ning on the morning of Sept. 4. Would Hughes Have Done It? "Mr. Hughes would not surrender to anybody in the country. Then he would have surrendered the country to the disturbance, immeasurable loss and peril of a strike. Would be, in fact have done that? Had he been presi dent confronted by that situation, would Mr. Hughes have brought on a' strike by refusing to sign the bill granting a wage increase? "There was the strike in plain eight, a few hours away, sure to come. Would Mr. Hughes have vetoed *the bill? On the contrary, would he not have done just what Mr. Wilson did, sign it? "The Republican candidate stands for two things—'first, for the principle of fair, impartial, thorough, candid arbitration, and, second, for legislation on facts according to the necessities of the case.' Mr. Wilson stands for those two things and, muoh more, has pledged himself to use all his influence to secure them. "What more could Mr. Hughes do? Would it be too much to ask the Re publican candidate to put a little com mon fairness into his speeches? Is he afraid to tell his audiences what the president actually did urge upon con gress? "As a true champion of arbitration President Wilson recommended that arbitration judgments be made records of a court of law in order that their interpretation and enforcement may not lie with the parties to the dispute, but 'with an impartial and authorita tive tribunal.' It was his purpose to provide against future emergencies to what he nearly succeeded in doing in the White House conferences would put such a face upon the matter that prevent the recurrence of such dangers as then confronted him and the coun try. "The people of the United States are not going to be put off with the mis information as to what the president did to avert a strike and to prevent the threat of future strikes. We have rea son to believe that the full revelation of what he did, what he tried to do and Republican efforts to make an isste of it would fall entirely flat. Advice to Railroads. "But the people do know, for it was before them in the president's address to congress, that he proposed, not a single emergeucy act, but a broad pro gram of legislation to meet a public need and T ermanently remove a public danger. It was a program which we are convinced the railroads would be very wise to accept in its entirety. "Certainly it seems to us that they are ill advisedto pray for the election of Mr. Hughes, who, if we take him at his wox*d, would have brought on tho strike, with all its irreparable injuries to the country's business and peril for the country's peace."

Convincing testimony to the wisdom and justice of President Wilson's Mex ican policy is given by Luis Cabrera, one of Mexico's commissioners at the joint Mexican-American conference in session at New Loudon, Conn. —)>|n.|.| tl< r j I Facts Versus. f ~>- | 1 F aliacie s I FACT Is 8 rati state 0/ t/tmffs.

Benefits Under Wilson Set Forth In Official Pamphlet. The Democratic platform of 1912 made this promise to the farmers of America: s "Of equal importance with the ques tion of currency reform is the question of rural credits or agricultural finance. Therefore we recommend that an in vestigation of agricultural credit socie ties in foreign countries be made, so that it may be ascertained whether a system of rural credits may" be suitable to conditions in the United States, and we also favor legislation permitting national banks to loan a reasonable proportion of their funds on real estate security. "We recognize the value of vocation al education and urge federal api ro priations for such training and exten- ' sion teaching in agriculture in co-op eration with the several states." These pledges, with many other serv- •! ices to tho farmer, have been • ora pletely fulfilled in the legislation of the present administration. The rec 6rd Of Democratic Performance is offered in comparison with the Republican record of broken promises to the farm er in an attractive pamphlet issued by » the Democratic national committee.
