IN SENATE RACE
Principles of America’s Foreign
Policy Outlined by State
Secretary.
’united STATES ALWAYS
FOR WHAT IS FAIR WAY
Wishes to Protect All Ameri
cans at All Times and Any
where and Seeks no Special
Privileges.
Cleveland, 0., Nov. 4.—Principles
of American foreign policy wer e des
cribed as “simple and really stated,’’
here tonight by Secretary Hughes,
speaking before an election mass
meeting in support of the candidacy
of Representative Fes s for the senate.
“We do not cbvet any territory
anywhere in God’s broad earth,” Mr.
Hughes declared. “We are not
seeking a sphere of special economic
influence and endeavoring to control
others for our aggrandizement. We
are not seeking special privileges
anywhere at the expense of others.
We wish to Protect the just and
equal rights of Americans every
where in the world. We wish to
maintain equality of commerical op
portunity; as we call it the open
door. That is not a derogation of
anybody else; the door is just as
open to others a s it is us. Equality
means equality. It doesn’t mean
privilege. We desir e to see peace-
ful settlements. We are most de
sirous to see the world starting
again on a sound economic basis,
with every people inspired by hope
and girded to the highest achieve
ments in the interest of their pros
perity. Wherever we have had a
cllance to promote peaceful settle
ments in this troubled world we have
take n it.”
Mr. Hughes colled attention to
the arbitral adjustment between Pan
ama and Costa Rica; the ratifica
tion of the treatv with Colombia;
the Chile and Peru negotiations, “in
the friendly atmosphere of Wash
ington,” and the f 'lietiming Cen
tral American arms 1 i.r'tatio n con
ference in Washington as illustra
tive of the American purpose and ef
fort. At more length h e drew the
Picture of the Washington, D. C.
conference on limitation of arma
ment and the paralleling far eastern
adjustments.
Asa esult of th e genreral atmos
phere of the Washington conference,
Mr. Hughe s said, China and Japan
had found it Possible “to settle the
Shantung controversy,” although that
question was not a part of conference
proceedings.
"That statement,.’.’ ”’MT HMTTH
“That statement,” he added, “is
now being carried into effect.’’ No
“cry of the afflicted” from any quart
er of the globe had gone unheeded in
America. Aid In European economics
recuperation had been “lavishly ex
tended,” Mr. Hughes said, adding:
“But we cannot change the cherish
ed policies of European states. 'These
policies have their backgrounds in
history and have their explanation in
national convictions. There is now
Intense feeling of Nationalism in
Europe which is readily explained
and this in each case gives aim to
national endeavor and determines
national policies as to European srtes
tions.
“The American policies to Which
I have will gain nothing by
being confused with others. Our po
tential helpfulness will be dimished
and not increased by maintanined in
maters that are no* our concern and
becoming parties to controversies and
partisans of interest and ambitions
that are not ours. MV have a great
influence for peace and helpfulness
in this world, and we propose to pre
serve it and the best way to preserve
It is to maintain our definite Amer!
can position unconfused and unob
scured.”
Mr. Hughes reviewed th e twenty
months of President ad
ministration, saying h e thought it
“fair to say NO one would have sup
posed that as much could be accom
plished under the present adminis
tration.” h e added that he was glad
of the opportunity of attributing the
gain made to the “wise, highminded
indefatigble and statesman —lik e en
deavor of the President of the United
States.” The President he said, had
given us effective and coiistitutional
leadership.
“What the American people want
ed has been done,” Mr. Hughes de
clared, “and they know that the cred
‘.l not due to those who have ob
structed but to those who have help
ed.”

There is Great Doubt. About
Some of the Constitutional
Amendments.
CREATION PEACH COUNTY
HAS BEEN LIVELY CONTEST
Governor Hardwick Has Sent
Out Ballots to Each Ordinary
in State—There is no Of
ficial Ballot.
Atlanta, Nov. 4.—-That all the Dem
ocratic candidates will win I n the
general election on Tuesday is the
prevailing opinion here in political
circles and while a number of the
regular party nominees are opposed,
it is thought that there w'll he suf
ficient votes in the party to elect its
candidates.
As to proposed constitutional
amendments to be voted on, there
was considerable doubt and specula
tion for various reasons. The amend
ment creating the Proposed county of
Peach, with Fort Valley a s th e coun
ty seat, has been subjected in the past
ten days to an aggressive campaign
of opposition by citizens of Houston
and Macon counties, from which the
Proposed new county is to be created.
Another proposed amendment,
which semed to be in doubt is the one
creating the new Fifty-second state
senatorial district composed of Ber
rien, Cook and Lanier counties. In
various counties in Southeast Geor
gia in the neighborhood of this pro
posed new district there have been
put i n circulation so-called “official
ballots” which contain no mention of
this proposed amendment.
More than usual confusion concern
ing thd” so-called “official ballot’’ for
use i n the general election has pre
vailed in advance of this election. As
a matter of fact, as pointed out by
Governor Hardwick, there i s no real
ly “official ballot.” The law makes
it the duty of the governor to Place
on the ballot the proposed consti
tutional amendment previously pass
ed up by the legislature. Custom of
years standing makes it incumbent
! upon the governor to furnish the
county ordinaries, who are i n charge
of the general eelction, a list °f the
Democratic nominees, and this is
called the “official Democratic bal
lot.”
As matters now stand, a voter has
the right to deposit in the ballot box
in a general election any sort of
ballot h e wishes to deposit. He can
write his choice o n a blotter if he
want s to and put it in the box and
the managers in charge are required
to count it. Or he can vote for some
of the nominees of his party and
scratch the names of others.
Candidates running in opposition
to the Democratic nominees have no
way of getting their names on the
“official” ballot. There is what is
“official” ballot. There i s whafc is
called an “official Democratic ballot”
sent cut in specimen form by the
governor to the ordinaries, and con
taining the names of the Democratic
nominees and also the proposed con
stitutional amendments. The inde
pendent candidates must depend upon
the voters to remember their names
and writg them on the ballots. Oth
erwise, the independent candidates
must print and distribute ballots at
their expense, containing their
name's.

Wedding Day of Foromer Emperor William
(By Associated Press.)
Doom, Holland, Nov. 3.—Painfully
impressed with the marked disap

Empress Augusta and by monarchist
circles toward his coming marriage
to the Princess Hermine, of Reuss,
former Emperor William has decided
to eliminate certain featux-es of the
festivities planned in connection with
the wedding here Sunday.
The changes from the original pro
gram have considerably simplified it.
One of the plans abandoned by the
ex-Kaiser is that of engaging an or
chestra to play the wedding music.
He has decided to content himself
with strains from the family organ.
The musical program includes Men
delssohn’s wedding march and the
bridal chorus from Lohengren.
No guests will be allowed at the
civil ceremony, to be performed in
the lodge at the entrance -to Doom
house, with the exception of Count
Von Moltke, marshal of the ex-
Kaiser’s “court,” and the official wit-

DOUBLE MURDERER
ELLIOTT PADRICK HAS
BEEN SENT TO PRISON
(By 'Associated Press.)
Statesboro, Ga., Nov. 4.—Al
though it wa s intended to keep
it a secret, it was learned here
thi s afternoon that Elliott Pad
rick, young Methodist Preach
er, who was convipted in Su
perior court here this week for
the murder of his mother-in-law,
Mrs. Mamie Lou Dixon, on the
bridge spanning the Ogeechee
River last June, had been sent to
the State prison at Milledge
ville. Officers left here with
him last night at 11 o’clock and
the young minister was in Mill
edgeville before day thi s morn
ing to begin his life sentence.
Should he seek and obtain a
pardo n here is another murder
charge hanging over him, he
having killed his wife at the
same time he killed his mother
in-law. He was tried only for the
latter murder.
ALBERT HOWELL WILL
BE IN CANDLER CASE
Atlanta, Nov. 4-.—Albert Howell,
prominent Atlanta lawyer, will be
associated with Harry Gamble, the
New Orleans ateorney representing
Mrs. Onezima Debouchelle in her
controversy with Asa G. Candler, ac
cording to current report here today.
Mr. Howell denied the report, ex
plaining that he has been kept at
home for the past two weeks on ac
count of the flu and knows nothing
of the case except what lie has read
in the newspapers.
On what appeared to be reliable
authority it was reported that Attor
neygamble consulted with Attorney
Howell on his visit here this week
and that Attorney Howell was the
one referred to in his statement on
leaving Thursday night, that he “had
consulted Atlanta counsel equal to
the most eminent in the country.”

'aw. The mayor of Doom will con

News of the lavish expenditure of
money for presents for the bride of
ex-Kaiser Wilhelm of Germany by
the former war lord and German roy
alty, coming as it does with the news
of the constant plunging of the na
tion toward bankruptcy has aroused
the ire of German leaders. The ob
jection of many members of the ex
kaiser’s family to the marriage of the
former emperor to Princess' Hermine
of Reuss, mother of several children,
and the constantly growing sentiment
against the ex-ruler indicate that Lie
new “empress’’ has a difficult role to
fill.

DETECTIVE TELLS
HOW TRAIN ROBBERS
WERE CAUGHT IN NET
SLEUTHS HAD BEEN ALMOST
WITHIN SPEAKING DISTANCE
ROBBERS FOR TEN DAYS.
(By Associated Press.)
Memphis, Tenn., Nov. 4.—The rob
bery of a St. Louis & San* Fran
cisco mail train at Seventy-Sit, Mo.,
early Friday, i n which Jack Ken
nedy, the “Quail Hunter,” and Har
vey Logan, two of the bandits met
their death at the hands of a posse
of railroad special agents and postal
inspectors, was the nineteenth train
robbery in which Kennedy claimed to
have participated, according to Ed
Munroe, ‘Frisco Railroad special
agent, leader of the posse.
From th e time that Kennedy and
Logan left Memphis te n days ago in
the automobile in which they planned
to escape after tli e robbery, Munroe
said he had been almost within
speaking distance of the pair every
moment of the time. Following them
from Memphis to CaPe Girardeau,
Mo., Munroe secured an adjoining
room to them at a hotel.
“On the morning before the rob
bery I watched them cleaning their
guns,” Munroe said. “When they
left for Seventy-Six we knew the
time had come to act. We gave them
plenty of time, and then followed
them. We threw up a little breast
works of rock at a point we knew
they would have to Pas s in getting
back to their car, and then waited.
“When they slowed the engine
down at the bridge at Wittenberg,
Kennedy, an old engineer, was at
the throttle, As they jumped, Ken
nedy threw the throttle wid e open.
“As they approached the spot
where we were waiting I yelled to
them to throw up their hands. Lo
gan fired in reply. Then th e men
turned loose their shotguns. Both
bandits were killed almost instantly.”
The bandits, in their hurry to
escape left a large quantity of dyna
mite, purchased in Memphis in the
mail car. They had evidently plan
ned to blow the car open if neces
sary.
