Washington Is quite accustomed to losing
its friends in Congress as a result of such

Governor Hughes Task.

When Charles f. Hughes was assured or
his election Tuesday night he said: Il am
very much gratified, of course. but what
ever the pluralities may be my feeling is
not of citation. but of responsibility"
In a way this speech may serve admirably
as an an inaugural address to the people of
New York II assures them that their next
governor is deeply impressed with the mag
nitude of the task set before him. its diff
culties and embarrassments. possibly its
dangers For IL ever a successful candidate
for office was warned by his own success
Mr.. Hughes now finds himself in that posi-
ton.
The vote cast for Mr.. Hearst throughout
the state. despite the handicap of his I'M
holy alliance with Tammany. the revolt of
McCarren, the possible treachery of Muir
ply. the open antagonism of Mayor Nc
Clellan. the effect of the Croker telegram.
and outside of the greater city. the defec-
ton of democrats who resented the manner
of his nomination, has revealed deep feel
ing of resentment against the party in
power and a demand for a change. Just
how far that vote stood for personal belief
in Hearst as a sincere worker for reform
or for a reckless desire for an overturning
regardless of results. is not especially to
the point. The fact remains that Mr..
Hughes was elected governor largely il not
wholly because of the scratching of Hearst
In New York city. and he will enter office
In company with some il not all of Mr..
Hearst's associates his state ticket.
These circumstances must be regarded as
plain indications that the people of New
York state are dissatisfied with existing
conditions and want reform. They want to
see the corporations curbed and the state
administration conducted upon an honest.
business-like basis. They are tired of the
control of legislation by few strong inter-
ests. 1t will be Mr.. Hughes task so to
direct state affairs as to give the people
chance. That he is well qualified for this
task far better qualified than MIR. Hearst,
is plain to those who merely glance at the
records of the two men. Hughes is a trained
Investigator. capable of penetrating to the
root OF question. Whether he will prove
a competent executive must remain for hfs
course to demonstrate.
The great danger confronting Mr.. Hughes
Is that those through whom he must work
To achieve results will. not have read Alright
the true meaning of Tuesdays vote. They
may interpret it as an Endorsement of the,
republican party in the state, regardless of
personalities or complications. If so, they
will seriously handicap the new governor
II they look upon their commissions In the
spirit displayed by Mr.. Hughes the5night of
election they will go far toward making his
administration a success. -.--..

Hearst.

Mr.. Hearst is said to regret his acceptance
of the democratic nomination. and to be of
the opinion that had he made the race as
the nominee of the Independence League
alone success would have been easy. He is
probably mistaken. The republicans would
not have repeated the mistake they made
in the mayoralty race last year, when many
of them deserted their candidate and sup
ported Mr.. Mcclellan. Mr.. Hughes would
still have commanded the large upstate
vote. while thousands of democrats would
still have gone to him as a means not only
of making Mr.. Hearst impossible. but of Sc
curing the state reforms so genera.-y de-
manded.
