Of Gibboney for prosecuting attorney

fee is taken to mean the re-establish-
ment Of the ring in power. McNiehol,
the contracting senator, comes out Of
his temporary retirement, and Durham
will become again the acting boss. This
result Is brought about in part BY the
desertion Of Mayor Weaver from. the
standard which he himself held up to
the admiration Of the whole country
last year. Mayor Weaver bought
golden opinion from all sorts of
people, but he was weak man and
could not withstand the blandishmen ts

to win him away from the cause he
had espoused.
It cannot be believed that the cause
of decent government is lost in Phila-

We have recently taken hold Of the

allowed to rule by fair means or foul.
Judge Taft tried to explain to the
Cubans how such things are managed
1 in Anglo-Saxon countries, and whether
ne succeeded, or not, he did succeed in
bringing home very close to Americans
the fact that we are responsible not
only for the dignity and virtue Of our
government, but we are responsible for
the example we set before our neigh
bors. What he told the Cubans Ameri-
cans ought to say to themselves, not
that whatever is is best, but that the
good in all men and all measures should
be sedulously cultivated. Every man
who is elected to an office should have
credit for q determination to do his

rules OF the game and to follow the

Nc leary as a Terrible Example.

McC leary as a Terrible Example.
Congressman McCeary is probably
defeated. This fact will be regarded
by the republicans Of Minnesota with
somewhat conflicting emotions. Nc.
Cleary is an able man and occupies
conspicuous place in his party, and
In the house Of representatives. In
his defeat Minnesota sacrifices prestige
and standing which it takes years to
achieve. Mr.. Hammond, even If he
were republican, would have to serve
the apprenticeship which d every con-
gresham must serve before he is rec
ognized and begins to exert any infu-
ence Of Importance. He is also handi-
capped by mem bership in the minority
party. BE cannot be expected to cut
much figure in congress, as the second
district is republican and is pretty sure
to find some republican next time who
can command the vote Of his party, and
terminate Mr.. Hammond's congress
sional career. On the other hand the
defeat Of McUeary is not an illogical
result and not without it's possibilities
for good. He is the most radical of
standpatters, has gloried in his dis.
tinction as the leader Of the forces of
opposition to tariff reduction, and has
been Extensively arrogant in his in.
sistence that his constituents shall let
him do their thinking for them on that
subject and = accept his conclusions

The moral effect Of the defeat of

valuable to the party and the country
It Is warning which other defers Of
public sentiment and the popular will
must regard seriously, and in that re.
spect the result in the second district
is not without it's compensations ever
from a republican viewpoint. It is
evident enough that it was republican
votes that did it,.

Hughes Victory in New York

Hughes Victory in New York,
Mr.. Hughes plurality in New York
is not as wide as a church door, but
it seems to be sufficient. The multi
millionaire corporation editor, did not
win the state, tho his demogogical APP
peals won nearly all the cities. The
farmer vote stood fast enough to elect
Hughes. Mr.. Hughes victory is a per-
sonal as well as political triumph It
will not be strange If the personal side
of.it appeals more strongly than the
political, because Nh. Hughes mapped
out his own kind Of campaign. He had
had little or no previous experience in
politics. He had made few political
speeches. His first efforts were a trifle
labored and flew over the heads Of his
audiences. = Undoubtedly, when he
started out on his first campaign tour
the managers, such as he had, were
scared. They feared they had gotten
hold Of clever lawyer who was not to
the political manner born and who could
not be licked into adaptability to the
work. But Mr.. Hughes learned very
rapidly the technique of political
speaking. He dropped his mannerisms
and he struck a note for himself when
he declared that the issue of the cam
paign was political sincerity. He had
elected to fight the battle on state
rather than national issues; but it must
be apparent that the line of battle
which he drew up was neither state
nor national. It was idealistic, and,
therefore. best suited to one of Mr..
Hughes culture and education Polit-
ical sincerity did not seem very
mighty club with which to- strike the
editor Of a dozen newspapers, but when
Mr.. Hughes brought his proof that Mr..
Hearst, while attacking trusts, had in
trenched himself behind triple barri-
cade Of corporations, and when he
showed by the assessors and court rec
ords that these corporations lodged
their taxes, while Mr.. Hearst gave out
that his life work was to make other
people pay theirs, the people began to
grasp the point. It was hammered home
with such persistency and force that
Mr.. Hearst finally fairly fed from the
issue he himself had raised. -
The character of his campaign and
the character Of the man make Mr..
Hughes a marked figure in American
politics, TO. be sure his future depends
greatly upon the success Of his admin
istration Of the states affairs. If he
succeeds as well in the office and BY
the same methods as gained it for him,
Mr.. Hughes is a national figure not to
be- overlooked in any arrangements the
national republican party may be MAX
ing. ,'* zI, /
The future is unknown. It is suff-
| cient for the present that Mr.. Hughes,
by an absolutely unique method, has
administered a singing rebuke to a par
ticularly exasperating demagog. 7

johnson Governor Again.

Governor Johnson has won a marvel
GUS personal victory in his reelection
to the office Of governor of. Minnesota
on the democratic ticket. That strong
man. John Lind, was able to do the
trick once, but strong as he was, was
unable to repeat the performance. Gov
ernor johnson sets a. new style by re-
spending to an encore.
His victory is largely personal, be-
cause he has not carried any of his
associates on the ticket with him. Yet
1t Is not so largely personal as Lind Is
triumph, because johnson has helped
to bring many republican candidates
Perilously near defeat. & insofar as his
campaign has done this, it has tended
to give heart and strength to local
democratic organization, and thus make
county and legislative Victories posi-
BILE. The governor is still long way
from having an effective fighting party
behind him, but his return to the Of:
fee Of governor, with two years more
in which to distribute patronage to his
followers and capitalize his claims,
makes him just that much more men
ace to republican ascendency in the
state. - r. : a. ss = Il t-%s
The republicans will probably have
learned something before 1908. They
may have learned to respect the indie.
pendent republican vote and give it a
candidate to whom 1t can WARM. This
Is not to say that Mr.. Cole was not q
worthy and respectable nominee. He
was in every way worthy Of the honor
given him at the convention, and If
elected would have made a plain,
businesslike governor But as a can.
didate he did not fill the imae!ination.
He did not have the personality to cope
with that Of johnson.
jacobson with all his vagarAes would
have been a more equal match for
johnson. His fierce and destructive
onslaught on Buchanan showed his
fiber. A little Of that kind Of heat
applied to some Of Johnson's claims,
many Of which were prepossterous,
would have made a campaign worthy
the name.
But that is past. johnson is elected
and he will be governor for two years
more. It Is as governor and not: as a
candidate he must be viewed now. AS
governor he has done some things well
and would have done other things bet
ter, If he had not been haunted BY the
secondterm ambition. This tended to
make the governor cautious where he
should have been bold, timid where he
should have been brave. He cannot
be a candidate for a third term, and
with this handicap out Of the way, he
has an opportunity yet to realize some
Of the promise Of his first election. The
state Of Minnesota, regardless of poll
tics, Is sympathetically interested in
the governors future. II hopes he
will make good in larger measure
and more robust style than he has yet

The Election of Haynes.

Mr.. Haynes will be mayor Of Mime
apolis after the first Of January.
In a warm contest at the polls the
voters of Minneapolis have declared in
favor Of his return to office.
While The Journal believes and
has commended that, judged by their
records, Mr.. Jones has given this city
a better administration than did Mayor
Haynes, if the people Of this city want
the kind Of administration which they
have right to expect from MI. Haynes
they are entitled to it and ought to
have 1t.
This Is the way we do things in
popular government. We fight for our
ideals and our leaders, and then accept
the verdict Of the majority. If we
didn't, we couldn't have popular gov
eminent. When our ideals and prin-
oiples are rejected we concede the
supremacy Of those opposed to them
until the next time, and then we try
it out again. By this process of trial
and retrial the average and FREEDOM
mating sentiment Of the community
prevails and in the long run we have
for the most part that kind Of govern
ment and the operation Of that class
Of principles and policies which most
nearly accord with the prevailing pub
lie sentiment. ~ >,.;~.
When Mr.. Haynes takes office
the first Of January he will find the
standards considerably advanced be-
yond the point where he left them, not
only with respect to the conservation
Of public morals, but the economical
administration Of the city's business.
He will find that the office Of mayor
has been magnifed and its larger pow
ers asserted and established. He will
have better opportunities than he has
ever had before to serve the public
acceptably and well. He has made
promises which he will have the oppor-
tunity to carry out. Everybody Is 60
ing to assume at the outset that Mr..
Haynes second administration will be
good one and an Improvement in
some important particulars over his
first No one will be more ready, more
glad to recognize its merits and sup
port him in every endeavor to give
this city q clean, wholesome, high
toned, economical and efficient admin
istration than The Journal and
those who have stood with it for the
best that is to be had in the way Of
municipal administration. Mr.. Haynes
Will labor under no handicaps from his
late opponents in any efforts he may
make in that direction. On the con-
trary, he will have their hearty sup
port.
