THE RIGHT KIND OFGOvERNOl

Gov. Hughes. of New York, i one
of those Republicans who believes in
serving his State first and then his
party and as such public men are
very scarce these days, it is not re-
markable that his administration
should have attracted widespread
attention. That New York made no
mistake in electing him governor in
stead of William II. Hearst has been
satisfactorily demonstrated by the
non-partisan course pursued by
Hughes. From the first he has been
out of accord with what is commonly
known as the New York machine.
which has opposed him at every step
in the Legislature, but the governor
in his State occupies a position very
similar to President Roosevelt in the
country at large in that he has the
people behind him. In all of his ef-
forts for better system of govern
ment in the Empire State Gov.
Hughes has been backed up and sup
ported by public sentiment regard
less of party or faction. and though
the politicians have opposed his
every move. things are so now that
they must stand aside or suffer the
inevitable consequences. which con-
sequences spell defeat. The COVER
nor is just such public man as
every State needs in the chief execu-
tive's chair. He sees the right and
he does it regardless Of everything
else. If New York is saved TO the
Republican party next year it will be
because of Gov. Hughes and his ad-
ministration.

The New York World in "a recent
editorial pays deserving tribute 10
the political morality of Virginia
as compared to New York. but falls
into the grievous error Of assuming
that the charges, or any part OF
them, lodged against Senator Mar
tin, during the primary campaign
which resulted in his denomination
for United States Senator. had
something OF truth in them.
In Virginia no man went into pub
lie life Co make money for himself.
Washington. jefferson. Madison.
Monroe, Randolph and their associ-
ates were the poorer for their public
service. They never looked upon
government as a means OF fattening
their pocketboOks. They would
have scorned to capitalize their olit-
zeal fame. The standards they e.
tablished are still more than mem
cries. In spite of the Civil War. in
spite OF the iniquities Of reconstruc-
tion,in spite Of the brood of damage
suit lawyers and corporation attor-
neys Matched out in the last two dec
AIDES, the people of Virginia have
chung instinctively TO these old ideals
OF service and sacrifice.
They have not been altogether sue
cessful, on account OF the political
activities of Mr.. Ryan's and Mr.. Nor
gan's railroads, bur they still have
one Senator in the Congress of the
United States who is scholar and a
gentleman, eloquent and-poor.
They may tolerate a Martin with a
Daniel, but is it conceivable that the
standards Of the fathers will ever fall
into such contempt that Virginia
will be represented in the Senate by
both Martin and Ryan?
The people of Virginia, in ID primary
election, nominated Senator Martin
by more than 10000 majority. in a
contest with one of Yirginia's most
distinguished and able citizens, one
who held the prestige of Governor OF
the State, during which all the ru-
mors the World seems to have credit
ed, were thrashed out to the bottom
and the people passed upon the
charges with the result that Senator
Martin was Observation-Disclosures. Vir-
ginians have no reason to regret their
decision. They regard Senator Mar
tin as the equal in integrity and
honor of any Senator from Virginia
who has gone before him. The cry
against Senator Martin was only the
cry OF the outs in an effort to get in.
1t has been efectually silenced in Vir-
ginia, and we wonder that the World
with the facilities for information il
enjoys, should still give credence t.
these discredited stories.

 Carriages were in waiting for the visitors on the opposite side of the river on what is known as the Boyd place. The engineers and the local committee were driven to the point known as the "clt-of. ses'- eral miles up the river and it was inspected by the government off, ciais.
