One Thread Running Through All the
Elections, Says the Governor.
Topeka. Nov. s.-There Is one
elections Of yesterday" said Governor
Hoch this morning. The color may
be different in spots, but IL IS the same
thread It is the thread OF RoOse-
Teltism: the thread Of q square deal;
the thread OF higher ideals and the
thread Of auti-machine. not so much
on account OF the machine Itself, but
because Of what the machine repre-
sents- In the election OF jerome and
Weaver, the anti-machine idea Is ac-
centuated.
so far as party issues are concern
ed, the election Of yesterday has no
significance It means nothing 50 far
as the election Of the ngxL president
is concerned But Il does show that
the American people have arrived at
that point OF intelligence to do the
right thing at one time without fndi-
eating what they VIII do the next
time But above all continued Gov
ernor Hoeh impressively, ''the cleo
ton OF yesterday Is a tremendous les
son IN this the next United States sen
ate had better read the handwriting
on the vail and respect the over
whelming demand OF the people as
voiced BY President Roosevelt The
members Of the house viii be al
right because they are elected direct
Is by the people, but the members Of
the senate had better take warning by
what vas said at the polls yesterday. "
