The Colonel repeatedly arose .and (bowed in response to the cheers for fim and the shouts of “Teddy!” “Ted-|!: 4qy!” “Hurrah for Teddy!”, and when |}: the meeting, adjourned he made. ;th following statement: “It i3 an admirable &pedch and 1 ~wish t0.call attention to the followlng ! “l am particularly pleased with the ‘exposure of the folly, end worwe thiah [€olly, of Mr. Wilson's Memxican; polcy.) 4 'and of the way in which this polcy |bas brought humiliation to the United {Btates and disaster to Mexico itwelf, “Moreover, I am very glad of the -tnlght,torwud manner in ‘which Mr, |Hughes has shown the: ridicule with jwhich Mr. Wilson has covered this na- ,‘on by -the manner in which he- al- ‘Sowed foreign powers to gain the im- pression : that although he usd the were not to be taken, seriously. Not Words Which Count. “As Mr. Hughes said, it is not words but the strength and resolution behind fthe words which count.. As ,Mr, Mfughes pointed out, there is no doubt M it Mr. Wilson’s conduct and ac- #lon had been such as to make the foreign nations beligve that he meant md.mw whit he eaid in his ‘strict lmwmbmty' there wonld have beén Io destruction of American lives by the sinking of the Lusitania ' “When Mr. Hughes uses etrong his record shows that they ere slways backed by strong deeds, and icroaore in the emormous majority of cases the use of efrong words renders fit unnecessary ever to have recourse ¢o strong deeds. “Again, Mr. Hughes speaks in char- acteristically straightforward dash- fon of the outrages committed on mu- mitions plants, and all men, whether citizens of foreign hations or nominal citizens of our owa land, who had in any shape or way abetted or condoned those actions can understand that Mr. Hughes, if President, will protect these domestic Amertcan interests and punish offenders against them with khe dfearfessmess and thoroughness that he showed in dealing with the powers of evil at Albany. Brought Nation to Ignominy. “Just before coming in to Hsten to Mr. Hughes’ just characterization of ‘Mr., Wilson’s failure to protect the Hves and property of Americans in Mexico and on the high seas, I hap- pened to pick up John Fiske's “Critioal Period of American History,” and was struck by the following two sentences: “'A government touches the lowest point of ignominy when #t confesses its inability to protect the lives and mpwmeyotimscmzm A gov- srnment which hes come to this has fatled in discharging the pflmry func- tion of government and forthwith ipeases to have any reason for exist- fng.’ “Mr. Hughes has pointed out in his ppeech with self-restraint, but with emphasis, that it is precisely this rdmm function which Mr. Wilson’s Administration has failed to discharge I‘ndtmntltdsvradflalymhpr:idnmot jgnominy to which he has luced mation over which he is Preai- lent.” e e K A rather chic effect can be impart- ed to the country chateau by parting the lawn neatly in the center. You can borrow the neighbor’s comb and brush for this, but be careful not to part the grass against the nap.
