Beveridge to Take Stump For Hughes.

Chicago, 111., Sept. 18.—With the state primaries out of the way both republican and democratic national campaign managers have laid plans for a combing of the middle west, mountain and coast states with the largest battery of heavyweight spellbinders ever turned loose in a presidential campaign. Practically every man of national reputation as a spokesman for either side will be put on the stump. The plans a continuous follow-up bombardment and counter attack by the “spielers” in every city of prominence in the entire section of the Allegheny mountains. With the coming of Charles Evans Hughes to Illinois on his second invasion of the west the b’g train of speakers will be given the word to get in readiness forrthe grand drive. Former U. S. Senator Albert J. Beveridge will be given the principal job of driving home the Hughes doctrine to the progressives of this section and cn the coast. He will start with a meeting at the Auditorium in Chicago on Oct. 5 and then will cover all the ground that Hughes went over in the first swing around the circle, with several additional towns thrown in. Leaving Chicago, Beveridge will go to Minneapolis and St. Paul and then will cut through the northern tier of states, down the Pacific coast, and thence into Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, Nebraska and Missouri.
