HOOSIER CAPITAL, IN FESTAL SPIRIT, HOST T0 HUGHES Republican - Candidate Given| One Joyous Welcome by | Thousands Amid Bunt- | ing, Noise and Fire. ¢HEER HIM ALONG THE WAY Streets Around Station and Line of March Thronged by Multitudes. HIS VOICE ALMOST GONE Indianapolis, Ind., Sept, 24.—In- dianapolis put on a red and yellow dress to welcome Charles E. Hughes. His/ special rolled into the station an hour ahead of schedule time and the celebration upon which republi- cans here have spent days of pre- paration was on. They met him with a bedlam of cheers, yells, factory whistles and au- tomobile sirens. They lighted their fireworks and plastered a patch of flaming red on the Indiana sky. They stood by the tens of thousands in the streets and cheered him along the way. Most of the {ime they couldn’t see him for the smoke, but they knew banks, his running mate, in one of the | first automobiles and they shot up | more rockets and burned more red fire and made more smoke and L‘!IBCX’(‘(] some more. Line Over Two Miles, { Scores of flags bedecked automé- biles swung into lne behind the nomi- nee’s car for the parade throngh the city to Tomlinson hall. Behind the cars came the men on foot, thousands of torch-bearing marchers, - Republi- can leaders, who staged the big dem- onstration said thak the line of march- ers extended for more than two miles. The streets around the,station and along the line of march were choked by throngs the like of which the nomi- nee has not met anywhere since the day he starfed on his presidential campaign. Bluecoats by the hundred kept the way clear. = Noise and Fire a Tonic. The red fire, the cheers of the crowds, the marching thousands, how- ever, acted as a tonic. Mr. Hughes was smiling from the time he left the train, He spent most of the ti during “the parade standing up i his car waving his hat in acknowl- edgment. The speech which Mr, Hughes de- livered here tonight wound up his Indiana campaign so far as this trip is concerned. Mr. Hughes will re- main here as the guest of Mr, Fair- banks till early Monday, when he will leave for Dayton, O. Yo When introducing Mr, Hughes, | Charles W. Fairbanks, the chairman of the meeting, said of him: “We recognize in him a man who is in | sympathy with our highest ideals— the advocate of every good cause; the sincere and helpful friend of the great body of wage carners in America, He stands for policies which mean better wages for more people and for more of the time, than do the policies of the democratic party. ~ Enemy of Grafters, “Able, straightforward, unafraid in | every responsibility, able as governor of the great empire state; the enemy of graft and grafters everywhere, 1 present to you a man who is a pro- found student of the problems of our government, who will act in every exigency when he has mastered the truth.” It was 8:40 o'clock before Mr. Hughes addressed the crowd. The bix audience had waited patiently from 7 o’clock. Many had stood the entire wmeé. Thousands were turned away unable to get inte the hall, 1 “This great demanstration seems to | me,” Mr. Hughes said, “a_sincere, | cordial and enthusiastic manifestation | of an intense desire for the success ! of the republican tick:t in November, i I consider it a happy augury of stic- | cess in state and nation.” ; Refers ¢o 1907, i “How about 1907?"” asked a man in the balcony, when Mr, Hughes as- sailed the democratic party for the business depression of 1913 “How about 1907?" the nominee quickly repeated, pointing his fingerat the questioner. “We had a monetary condition in 1907, which the republi- can party the very next year recti- fied by the Aldrich-Vreeland bill which saved this country from panic in 1913.” The crowd yelled.

Through the Big Sixth Vogers A ' Strong for Republican'C Week Spent in Rock, Boyd, Keya Paha and Holt Coun- ties Shows How Public Sentiment Trends. By HARRY O. PALMER. Campaigning with Moses P. Kin- kaid and John L. Kennedy is alwa; refreshing and has from the beginning been interesting to me, but 1 want to say that it sometimes becomes pretty strerfuous, Since the first week in September I have been following in the foot steps of statesmen, gathes-| ing data from the differént communi- ties visited as to the condition of the public pulse, and at the same time i forming myself as to the needs of Ne- braska. During this time I have spent some very interesting and instructive hours with Congressman Moses P. OMAHA, MOM MY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 25, 3} :0\‘ S el o~ | 1\“"' | s"‘@«ulates‘ "a\ forded Boyd and Keya Paha counties that day. Bill is one of those serious minded drivers, apparently, but in fact | full of surpr We drove over sand roads with a vengeance and oc-| casionally Bill found it necessary to | ask the distance to the next habita- | tion. Over near Burton he asked a| | wayfarer the distande to Springview | and was told some figure which was | | larger than the distance we had been | given some mileg back. Bill looked atvme without ady show of humour | | and remarked, “Harry (you know in | politics you always call a fellow by his first name) we aren't gaining a | damned bit.” | We spent a night in Bassett, near| | the old homestead of Judge A. L. Sut- | | .on, republican candidate for gov-| | ernpr. Now let me tell you they are | certainly for the judge up here. Both | ;rcpublirans and democrats are for | | him. I learned that they were very *(inkaid and John L. Kennedy, repub-y much put out because of an attempt ican candidate for United States sen- ator. Last week we have visited Boyd, Keya Pahay Rock and Holt counties, and I now feel safe in prognosticating that Moses P. Kinkaid will be re- elected from the Sixth district. Some days ago I read aloud, from an Omaha paper, a bit of political gossip to the eifect that some young fellow out at Kearney was going to give Mr. Kinkaid a merry run for his political life. This happened in a barber shop. The barber was then shaving a Kin- kaider who laughed outright with such violence that he almost lost his life in the chair, { humorous bits of democratic political h he was there with Charles W. Fair-{bunk are dangerous to life and limb | whose names 1 am not at liberty to and should be used only with abun- dant caution. “Kennedy and Kinkaid” is the slogan of the Sixth district re- publicans. They tell me that they want a man like John L. Kennedy to co-operate with Mr, Kinkaid in the great work that can be done for the Sixth district at Washington. This is a country of magnificent distances, sure enough. I am writing from Bassett, up in Rock county. Ob- serving that the voters are not -as numerous here, as elsewhere in the staté, I asked Mr. Kenfiedy why he was spending so much time here. He quickly put me right on this, saying, “It is my opipion that too many men have pretended to represent a state or a district without being familiar with : its needs and possibilities. Before this campaign is over I am going to know Nebraska familiarity from one’end to the other’.” Now Mr. Kennedy is right in this and the people up here ap- preciate it, too,I want to tell you. We Ief(. Lynch the other day, piloted by Bill Hum: of that place, and we I would suggest that these | | by liguor people to spread a story to | | the effect that jthe judge was not making this campaign in good faith | so far as the dry anfendment was con- eerned. Jf the opinion of a man's| homesteader friends may be relied on as the true test bf his strength, Judge | Sutton will be elected governor. Mr, | Kennedy has been giving the assur- ance all along the-line that if Judge | Sutton is elected there will be no un-| seen power or boss of any interest di- | | recting his arm as governor, .l am | convinced that if Judge Sutton is not embarrassed by ths overzealous activity of certain of his supporters he will be elected. I talked with sev- | eral Bryan democrats in Newport, disclose, and they assured me lhat( they would not vote for Mr. Hitch-| cock for the reason that he had never been a democrat to begin with, and that he had been a stumbling block for Mr. Bryan and the Wilson ad- ministration and at the last minute had begun to talk Wilson as the issue | |'in the hope that he might thereby | make amends, Now in short the voters all through | the state are doing a lot of quiet| thinking about politics. The world | war and the sufferipgs of mankind | have softened hearts everywhere, | This is one thing which is going to] make the anti-liquor vote so heavy this fall. It ig this that is going to elect John L. Kennedy and Judge Sut- | ton. The people can’t stand the sus-| pense much longer, and ‘the uncer-| tainty of the attitude of the demo- cratic administration is going to cause voters to vote the republican ticket as ,a means of getting relief. These] are the views of the people up in these | parts as I find them. Bassett, Neb.
