Yarmouth's Naval History.
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."
"WATCHFUL WAITING" HAS
SAVED A NATION'S LIFE
Mexican Envoy's Tribute to President
Wiison's.Policy.
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.

circles of Mexico President Wilson is
looked upon as one of the greatest men

DEMOCRATIC PROMISES
TO FARMERS FULFILLED.
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.
Copies have been furnished to every ;
Democratic state committee for free i
