candidate contributed materially to the
result. but all this would have been
unavailing had it not been for the de-
cided stand which Parsons maintained
from the time he arrived in Saratoga
until the opposition to his candidate
crumbled to dust.
1t was frequently asserted during the
early hours that the action of the up
state leaders in receding from their
opposition to Hughes had been caused
by the President insisting upon
Hughes nomination.
Congressman Cooks. representing the
Oyster Bay district, brought the most
direct word that, while the President
did not wish to interfere, he thought
Hughes was a man who met the re-
quirements of the present situation.
A telegram has been received from
Governor Higgins declaring mat he
was not opposed to Hughes
HUGHES RECEIVES NEWS.
NEW YORK. Sept 2s.-charles e.
Hughes received the notification of
his nomination for Governor at
his home in West End avenue with
his wife and two daughters. The news
came to him in the form of a telephone
message from the Associated Press and
a little later the confirmation was
found in an official telegram from the
convention itself Immediately he sent
formal message of acceptance
through Senator Alfred r. Page.
Hughes was content to allow this mes
sage TO be his only public utterance
at this time on the subject of his nom
ination, a message in which he pointed
out that he accepted without pledge
other than to do his duty according to
his conscience and in which he de-
clared that If elected il would be his
ambition to give "a sane, efficient and
honorable administration free from
taint OF bossism or of servitude."
He declined 10 discuss his candidacy
or his probable attitude on the issues
OF the campaign, but said that his
public statements during the canvass
would be confined absolutely to the
platform. q

ST. JOSEPH. Mo-. Sept 2s.-Speaker
Joseph G. Cannon spoke to an audience
here this afternoon which overf1owed
the theater in which he appeared. In
an interview given out here Cannon
said the Democrats who declared
Roosevelt to be the bset Democrat who
ever sat in the White House were like
the devil when he offered Christ all
the Kingdoms of the earth if the Savior
would do his bidding.
The devil claimed all the earth, but
he did not own - foot of it."
said Cannon.
Before he began to speak Cannon
was asked if he was going to discuss
Gompers.
"Gompersl What's he running for?-
replied the Speaker.
I am going to try to make a Re
publican speech, and If 1 refer to MI
Gompers it will be only as the deliver 5
of Republican speech demands"
How about the Cuban question:"

SAME REASONS LEAD TO
CONTRARY DECISIONS
One Preacher Concludes to Leave the
oyuh Side of Chicago and Another
Determines Stay.

Determines to Stay.
CHICAGO, Sept. 26.-The determine
tic Bl of one South Side minister to
lie sve his pastorate became known yes
ter day. His reason was the city
,Srt )blem," the changing character of
na ighborhoods and the invasion of his
pa rish by more transient and less
/ cKurchgoing population. At the same
time another South Side minister who
had decided to leave reversed his de-
| cision and elected to stay because he
saw vast work ahead in purifying
the region of which his church is the
| center.
The minister who announced his res
| ignation is Rev. Willard Brown Thorp
of South Congregational Church, Drexel
Boulevard and Fortieth street. He has
been pastor there for seven years. The
preacher who altered his decision to
leave is Rev. Johnston Myers of I'm
manuel Baptist Church, Twenty-second
| street and Michigan avenue, chief of
| the Twenty-second street "levee" He
had been offered the position of general
evangelist by the Baptist Church of

1t is the duty of Government, there
fore. to ascertain the actual cost OF
operation of all public service corpora
tions and to fix from time to time rea-
sonable rates for the service they per-
form.
The recent investigation of insurance
companies affords but faint idea of
the gross corruption which has gov
erned their administration for a long
period 1t is scandal OF unparalleled
dimensions that these shocking ex-
posures have resulted merely in the dis
charge of few officers whose fnefi-
cheney for plunder was established by
the fact that they had allowed the
enormities to be discovered. while the
more desperate culprits, who were most
adroit in plotting these villainies and
who prohted by them most extensively
have been allowed to remain in con-
troll of the vast trust funds they have
pillaged and wasted.
