NEW Y0RK'S REPUBLICAN cANDI.
DATE.

For governor the Republicans OF New
York have named an admirable eandi-
date. probably the strongest that could
have been put in the field at this par
ticular time. Besides being the per
sortal choice Of the President, Mr..
Hughes has united the Republican fac
tions, and viii draw to his support the
Independents and dissatisfied Demo
Gratis. Mr.. Hughes is lawyer OF great
ability and has made his mark in the
legislature He applied the probe du-
ring the famous insurance inrestiga-
tions which revealed 20 many scandals
in the world of finance. During that
investigation Mr. Hughes displayed
qualities which attracted favorable at
tention all over the country. He at
once stamped himself upon the public
mind as a man worthy Of the highest
honors, fitted to fill any official posi-
tion in the land. He comes to take
command Of the Republican forces in
the Empire State at time when a
young, clean, aggressive and optimistic
leadership is an imperative necessity
If New York is TO be saved to the Re-
publican party in this election, and the
party itself held from breaking into
ipeconcileable factions. There is no
taint of Platt, Depew, and 0dell about
him; none of the rank odors OF the old
machine or the miasmatic exhalations
of the Erie Canal administration. If |
any Republican can win New York |
this year Hughes is the man. He starts
with a united and enthusiastic party |
behind him, and the betting two to one
is in his favor. II he carries the state
by good majority he will probably
be the Republican standard bearer in
the Reublican Presidential election two
