there will be general sigh of relief when

This trip may serve now as a precedent.
The tradition which has for many years
kept the presidential feet upon American
soil has been broken. That which hereto
fore forbade extended journeys from the
seat of government lest mishaps might
wreck the administration of affairs has
been smashed. The President has gone a
long way from home and Is now returning
in good health. and the government here at
Washington still lives. Such demonstra-

Murphy of New York.

The New York political vaudeville pro-
ceeds. But for that matter. the perform
ance Is continuous.
When Mr.. Hearst last summer found that
Mr. Murphy was essential to his scheme he
eased up both In the way of cartoons and
OF editorials on the leader Of Tammany
Hall. The striped suit was Withdrawn and
laid away In moth balls. Furious fulmina-

An Optimistic Governor-Elect.

One paragraph of Governor-eiect Hughes
speech in New York Friday night is deserv-
ing of special consideration, as throwing
light upon the character of the man whom
the people of the state have chosen to ad-
minister their affairs:
"Snce the election 1 have been over
whelmed with messages of felicitation OF
have been congratulated, counseled and ad-
jured. Optimist and pessimist, the timid
and the courageous, the Sangufne and the
bilious have made me the repository or
forebodings and their triumphant exulta-
tons. Out of it all spell opportunity, re-
sponsibility and godspeed."
This Is the outlook of the optimist. the
progressive philosopher, who has faith In
the people and in himself, who believes he
has a chance to do good, end who proposes
to rise superior to obstacles and difficulties
and master them. He recognizes the dan
gers, but does not allow them to deter
him or discourage him.
A half-hearted entrance upon the duties
at Albany would be the worst possible
start for the new governor. His task Is
perhaps the most important ever assigned
to the head of the commonwealth. Condi-
lions there are not only complex. but they
have aroused the people to high pitch OF
restlessness and protest. The recent cam
paign was unusual in that each side con-
tended that reform was necessary, d1ner-
ing In the means proposed. Mr.. Hearst
lambasted everything and everybody with
out discrimination and without assurance
of a constructive reorganization. MI.
Hughes promised to meet the needs OF the
situation with conservative remedies. Per-
haps the more will be expected of him be-
cause of his very mildness of prescription.
Mr. Hughes puts behind him the pessi-
mists who would have him believe he is
doomed to failure. In these days OF prep
aration he needs helpful suggestions not
deterrent A man with his inquisitorfal
his faculty for boring into mud
die and finding the truth, may be relied
upon to see for himself all there Is of error
and evil. The only question Is whether he

feat of his candidate for governor. They
reproduced the old Hearst cartoons and
quoted from the old Hearst editorials about
the Tammany boss.
Now the laugh is on these men. Although
Mr.. Hearst was beaten. Mr.. Murphy's local
ticket was elected, and he comes out OF
the scrimmage with some power. If Rich
ard Croker does not return and dispute the
way. Mr.. Murphy may hold his place as
leader Of Tammany Hall. and thus become
a factor to be reckoned with in shaping
things for 1908. New York, as usual. wants
to play a prominent part at the democratic
national convention, and In large measure
on such occasions she speaks through Tam
many. So there are other people now
easing up on Mr.. Murphy and getting ready
to march by his side again. They are with
drawing their animadversions, and trying
to forget it, After taking the ground
that he was an unfit man to figure prom
inently in the campaign for a governor and
bench of local judges. they are preparing
to consult him in the matter of writing
national platform and nominating a candi-
date for President Of the United States!
Never such another place for politics as
New York. and never such politics as New
York politics found in any other place.
Even the home folks are mystifled at times,
and deplore their own fog.
