{EW. BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 1916. REPUBLICANS HAPPY N MIDDLE WEST Believe Hughes Has Stirred Up ‘ Great Enthusiasm Indianapolls, Ind., Sept. 25.—The three days of political revelry in which Indiana indulged during the campalign tour in the state just fin- ished by Charles E. Hughes has left tic frame of mind. The intense in- the republican leaders in an op(imis-i | } terest in things political exhibited in‘ this state has raised their hopes and | has started them talking about . .“republican trend” in the middle west which they predicted will sweep the country. The nominee and the leaders took stock of the situation, and it was apparent from the statements given out that they were more than satisfied s- with the results obtained. They built their convictions on the large erowds which had turned out and the “punch” which had been put into the fight. The predominant feeling among the leaders was that the republicans in Illinois, Wisconsin and Indiana “*had stolen a march on the democrats by staging a political show which had stirred the people and left a situa- tion favoring republican victory in the sectlons covered by the nominee. _In the three states named Mr. Hughes fdrew large and cordiai crowds. In Milwaukee the crowd, which moved him to say that it was the finest spec- tacle he had witnessed, was not so large or nolsy as that which greeted a) President Wilson on his preparedness tour early in the year, but it left Ilit- tle to be desired. And in South Bend .and in this city Saturday night, the demonstrations were of a nature to stir one’s blood. Hert Predicts Victory, Albert T. Hert, western manager of the national campaign, who was with Mr. Hughes throughout the trip, “had this to say, representing pretty much the public utterances of other leaders on the train: “At the close of a week of travel through Illinois, Wisconsin, and Indi- pna with the republican presidential rominee I do not hesitate to predict that Mr. Hughes will carry each of these states by a large majority. On his second trip through the middle west Mr. Hughes discussed all the is- sues of the campaign, and every speech won applause and often the cheers of the crowds when he por- frayed frankly the line of action he will follow when he becomes presi- dent.” Will H. Hays, republican chairman of Indiana, said: “Governor Hughes trip to northern Indiana became a triumphant proces- sion. It can mean bpt one thing— Indiana voters, regardless of party, trust him and are with him in his fight. Indiana republicans, moved by the magnetism of his presence and fired with the enthusiasm of his sincere purpose, are ready to put into the struggle all the energy and labor necessary to conclude a stiff cam- paign. Governor Hughes ,rst visit to Indiana has started the big move- ,ment.” " Mr. Hays later issued a statement sayiny that Mr. Hughes would spend two days campaigning in southern Indiana late in October. During the first week of the pres- ent trip Mr. Hughes in many ways has presented a picture different from fhat when he campaigned in August In the west. The organizers of the campaign of Illinois, Wisconsin and Indiana developed the field before his arrival and presented a setting which urged him to his best efforts, placing before him crowds which cheered In a way that acted as an Inspiration. Where there were fractional troubles $hey ironed them out as far as pos- sible in advance and, while Mr. Hughes showed no desire to give out- ward support to local candidates, fol- lowing his course in the past, they ar- zanged matters so that local candi- dates should get as much glory as possible out of proximity to the nom- inee. In fact, they did everything this time which was left undone in the early swing west. They got Mr. Hughes into a fighting spirit which kept him hammering away after his volce had failed. 3 Democrats Spurred on. The Hughes tour of Indlana has spurred the democrats of this state to renewed efforts. Some of the democratic leaders here are express- | .ing the wish that President Wilson | 'would get more actlvely into the fight. In this state there is a strong democratic organization, and it has been fighting to discount the effect of the Hughes tour. The democrats were not inactive Saturday night, when 75,000 people from all over sthis sectlon clogged the streets here to witness the Hughes parade. There was cheering for President Wilson at points along the line of march, and men with megaphones shouted defiantly as the candidate’s automo- | bile went by: “What would you have one, Mr. Hughes, if you had been president?” Little groups of labor agitators circulated in the crowds, and, pointing at Mr. Hughes, made references to the Danbury hat case decision. Here, as in most of the other cities he has visited, the people seemed to like the appearance of Mr. Hughes. Comments about his being “a fine looking man” and a ‘“dependable man’ were heard on every side. The -people liked the way, too, that he ~_Atruggled to keep fighting when his voice was failing him. Mrs. Hughes, as in the past, won the hearts of all. Criticisms of the candidate’s speeches, which were frequent on the Far West- state republicans, came this time entirely from democrats. There was apparent a feeling of Injury on the part of some workers because Mr. Hughes did not refer frequently to local nominees. Some of the followers of James E. Watson, one of the republican nominees for senator, were a bit peeved because Mr. Watson was not permitted to pre- side at any of the meetings especially in view of the fact that the big meet- ing last night was turned over to Harry S. New, also a senatorial nom- inee, and to Vice President Fair- banks, while Mr. Watson was forcnd to take a back seat. But there were other republican leaders who were very well satisfied, leaders who do not want Mr. Watson to gain any prom- inence in the national fight. Mr. Hughes’ voice was in somewhat better condition yesterday. By the elimination of outdoor meetings wherever possible it is hoped to keep him in fair trim for the remainder of this tour. Mr. Huglies spent the day at the home of Mr. Fairbanks, his running mate. He slept last night on his private car, in the railroad vards. almost ——— GET THIS DIET BOOK Food is as important to the sick per- gon as medicine, more 8o in most cases, A badly chosen diet may retard re- covery. o 2 Inrgenlth the natural appetite is the ‘best guide to follow, in gickness the ap= petite is often fickle and depraved.
