Charles E. Hughes defeated William
R. Hearst for Governor of New York
yesterday by what would be under or
binary circumstances, a handsome ma
jority--a majority at least three times
that by which Theodore Roosevelt was
elected Governor in 1898.
Nevertheless the result is a disgrace
to the State of New York. the Republi-
can party, and the country at large.
Upon the issue made by himself
that property is robbery-Mr Hearst
should have been not merely defeated,
but wiped off the political map.
He is not wiped off. He is merely
defeated. And without the assistance
given to the Republican party by such
Democrats as Patrick McCarren in
Brooklyn and Timothy Sullivan in
New York, and Richard Croker from
his exile in England, no one can tell
what disaster might have swept the
State and the Nation.
Nor is the reason for this disgrace
far to seek. The Republican organiza-
ton has been demoralized 1t was
also without money-too poor to make
a campaign of education.
Mr.. Hearst had the money, and with
it organized his forces and covered the
State with his literature and speakers.
So Mr.. Hughes was left to make a
single handed campaign. He made it

The Land of Old Age.

This is one OF the bitterst things we
mothers have to bear when we get old.
We have learned then that we can't
help our children to lead their lives
one bit better. There is not one single
stone we can clear from before their
feet be our old fingers ever so willing.
With yearning hearts we see them
making the mistakes we could teach
them to avoid if only they would listen.
We see them going through one expert
ence after another, stumbling here
again hurting themselves against the
same corner you hurt yourself so long
ago, repeating all the vorld-worn mis-.
takes. while we elders watch anxiously
and may not even cry out Take care. "
Our sons repeat the follies Of their
fathers; our daughters make over again
all the mistakes of their mothers. II
is very hard to sit in silence when you
see them doing all the things that you
did and then so painfully learned bet
ter. We feel hat we could so easily
point to the f&.t open road If our chill
| dren would let us, but we are as use.
| less to them as guide-posts TO the blind.
We must watch our children lose them
selves in the tangle whose miseries we
know so well and see them at last
after long years of wandering find their
way back home heart sore and worn
| and all the time We can't help thinking
| il all needn't have been. That to us
older mothers is the heartrending part
| of it.-Harper's Bazaar.
