There was a large crowd to greet the nominee at the station when he arrived on the ferry from Oakland and he received the most enthusiastic welcome of the tour. For the first time he found crowds which followed his automobile through the streets and cheered him as crowds cheer in the middle of a presidential cam- paign. The lobbies at tel were also thronged with men and women voters. The Palm room, where scheduled to speak at 3:30, was already partly filled. Surrounded on every side by the republican-picked reception commit- tee, he went to his room, forgetful at the moment of everything except the cordiality displayed. Mr. Hughes appeared promptly at 3:30 o'clock, still In charge of the reception committee, the personnel of which has stirred some Johnson pro- gressives even to the point of threat- cning to support President Wilson. At the meeting there was every evidence of harmony and enthusiasm, but while the republican women cheered his words some of the republican and progressive leaders were expressing themselves without restraint just out- side the doors of the meeting room. “Hands Of" Warning for IuZhe nk C.

Any recognition of Johnson will wuse no end of trouble among us republicans. If Johnson gets the re- publican nomination for senator over Booth we are all going to vote the democratic ticket. We are going to clect a republican on a republican ocrat. We will not accept Johnson under any circumstances. We are go- ing to bury him. He was a traitor to Jordan said a lot more along the same lines and made it quite evi- dent that he would rather have the democrats carry the state for every candidate than have Johnson get back in power. He was bitterly opposed to a meeting between Johnson and Hughes, which he considered a sur- render of principle not to be thought of, no matter what the cost might bo to either state or national ticket. He hinted at a situation where the repub- licans would support President Wil- Mr. a tendency to lean toward the pro- gressives in this state. For the progressives Chester H. Rowell, spokesman in the absence of Governor Johnson, in discussing the situation said: “We'll try to bury the hatchet for the next three davs while Mr. Hughes is here. After that it is a fight to the finish whether we win this time or it takes ten years. Mr. Hughes in my opinion cannot afford to ignore Gov- ernor Johnson. The governor is the higgest man in the progressive party, not only in this state but in the na- tion, excepting, of course, Colonel Roosevelt. He also has a very power- ful grip on the lahor interests. “There are 300,000 progressives who are not registered with any party who will control the Tesult in the | state. Mr. Hughes can have them if | he takes the correct attitude. If he does mnothing other leaders and my- self will still support him and try to get as many of the voters as possible | to back him, but I don’t know how saccessful we will be, T don’t say that Mr. Hughes will lose the state under those circumstances, but the majority which he should obtain will be cut down materially, and T am afraid that the situation here will have a very | important effect on the progressives in cther states, which under normal con- ditions are considered in the doubtful column, “Weo progressives truce, but the republicans The only recourse, therefore, and we will fight to the end.” o Mr. Rowell said also that Chairman iCeesling of the republican state com- mittee, who has taken full charge of the Hughes campaign here to the ex- clusion of Governor Johnson and Rowell, had intimated that some re- publicanis might not give Mr. Hughes their whole-hearted support if he fa- vored the progressive party here. Mr. Keesling, he said, was firm in his de- termination to have Mr. Hughes keep his hands off. The attitude of Mr. | Keesling toward the progressives, said My, Rowell, an attitude which irri- | tated and inflaimed them " that are ready for a are not. a fight Johnson | they should have no volee in what to be done, although a few of | them might be persuaded to sit on tho | platform at meetings. ! The only thing which might in any way be looked upon as a concession an the part of the old line republi- was an invitation extended to ir. Rowell by Chairman Keesling to | | o with him to the Auditorium night and sit on the platform as his guest. Mr. Rowell read about it first in a newspaper, and later received the Jersonal invitation from Mr. Kees- ling. He decided to go, because he wanted to do what he could to make | it appear that there was some har- | mony while Mr. Hughes is here. Tlo| realized, he said, that it meant noth- ing to him, any more that it did to five other progressive leaders of the real progressive type, who had receiv- | cd similar invitations, Tt was directly after telling about the invitation that | Mr. Rowell announced that, when Mr. Flughes left the city the fight would | be corried on to a finish, | Johnson Favoring Tfughes. | Governor Johnson is now advos ing the clection of Mr. Hughes in | campaign addresses in the southern part of the state, and this s heing put forward reason why Mr. Hughes should meet him and indorse him. Tt id by some leaders that the gov- ernor will continue to indorse Hughes whether the nominee recog- nizes him ar not. Among other charges made, however, Is the one that many of the Johnson followers £re not enthusiastic for Hughes, and that they will trade votes with the | democrats and help to elect Wilson in | turn for support for Johnson as nator. The situation is one of the most complicated the state has faced and it is admitted that the bitter sato at- | is fight will have an important effect on | the national ticket. ! To add to all the other troubles | | there is a strike amang the waiters here over the open shop issue. The | @elicacy of the situation was empha- sized while Mr. Hughes was on the way from the station to the Palace | hotel in the afternoon. A man in the | | erawd shouted so that his derlsive | voice was heard above the cheerdr | “Be sure and take him to mn open | | shop.
