KEYNOTE OF PLATFORM.
Republican Performance of Past a
Promise for the Future.
IBy Telegraph to The Tribune. J

Saratoga, n. Y, Sept. 2G-The platform
adopted by the convention to-day brief and to
the point. instancing deeds instead of promises
and theories was declared by many TO be one
of the strongest documents Of its kind drawn
up in this state for many years. The record Of
President Roosevelt. it says. is a platform on
which every citizen can stand. and the party
here is pledged to follow his example. The ad-
ministration of Governor Higgins is declared to
be ono OF the greatest in the history of the
state. The Insurance legislation is commended
and the legislation against political contributions
and lobbying and the abolshment of the direct
state tax are cited examples of the good
work Of the party. together with the reduction
OF the price of gas in New York The platform
favors the extension OF this policy 20 the regu-
lation of all public utility corporations
Definite indication Of the attitude 10 be taken
by the party was contained in thinly veed allu-
sions to rash experiments with socialistic the
ories, slap at the Hearst doctrines. and deca-
rations that equitable control and regulation of
corporations was favored. rather than federal
ownership Of great railroad systems, a refer
ence to the doctrine enuncated by Mr. Bryan
On his return from Europe. Protection and con-
sideration of laboring people and favoring the
punishment Of lynchers and deprecating mob
violence are other notable planks in the plat
form.

QUALITIES OF MR.. HUGHES.
In his description of Mr.. Hughes. Mr.. Hedges
declared him not only unassailable in political
integrity, unquestioned in individual honesty.
sane and safe, wholesome and human, but one
who believes that, while he has duty on earth,
the Almighty intended that some other people
should live at the same time; who has no
thought that he has a special and exclusive
providential dispensation; who is willing TO ad-
nit that the earth is peopled by others, and that
acting with them all for a common purpose
when he laws down the robes OF office his name
can be added to the rollcan without an excuse.
without a blush and without thought Of anger
or disappointment, and that the echoes OF this
convention will continue to sound until his sue
cessor is nominated, and that when that man
takes office his task will be made lighter by
virtue of what shall happen in the next course
of years"
Senator William ]. Tully. of Steuben' second
Republican member of the insurance investigat-
ing committee whom Chairman Armstrong in
troduced as his own colleague in that investiga-
tion dwelt upon Mr.. Hughes's services as counsel
10 that committee and to the Stevens committee
of 1905 which investigated New York gas and
electric lighting conditions.
II wish the delegation to this convention
could know Charles E. Hughes in the same way
that those of US who served on these committees
with him came TO know him. and predict that
the same splendid energy, the same unfaltering
ability TO work and perform the duty in hand,
the same unfinching and independent integrity
and the same unwillingness to be deviated an
inch or a fraction Of inch from the course that
he saw in front Of him will make him one of the
best one Of the ablest one of the most popular
Chief Executives we will ever have"
