HUGHES, PRESIDENTIAL BOON.

THE Hughes boom for the Republican Presi-
Dental nomination is persisting Behind
the New York governor are influential friends
who are determined that he shall make good
showing at the National Republican Presidential
Convention. Strong hopes have they that he
may win the nomination.
The boom for Hughes has made much head
way in New York, and it is slowly spreading
throughout the country. 1t is now proposed to
send special commissioners in the interest Of
Hughes TO the Western and Northwestern
States to tell the people there what kind of a
man the governor of New York really is, and
what sort Of President they believe he would
make
II has been suggested that the governor him
self will visit the Western and Pacific States, but
it is not probable that the journey will be made.
There is little magnetic about Hughes. Nomi-
mated for chief magistrate of the Empire State,
when he started his campaigning up through
New York State against Hearst, long and loud
were complaints that his personality would not
win votes and that his campaign would therefore
prove failure. Unless he has learned more of
the arts of the good mixer" the governor,
should he make trip West, would create an un-
favorable impression.
But even if this is true, the personality of the
candidate matters little in times like these.
Hughes won his election as governor OF New
York because of certain existing conditions. He
was the man to fill the bill and, therefore, he
was chosen, and not because OF personal popu-
larity. For the same reason Hughes may be
nominated for President. 1t is true that Presi-
dent Roosevelt gained much by his personal
popularity, which enabled him to secure tight
hold upon the affections Of the people. But aside
from this the people believed in the Presidents
sincerity and determination of purpose, and for
the same reason the people of New York believe
in the governor. Throughout the West the Fair
banks, the Taft, the Cannon and the shouters for
the lesser lights are in evidence, and the Hughes
men believe some one should be on the ground
applauding their favorite.

GOVERNMENT AND THE BROKERS.

A TTORNEY-GENERAL BONAPARTE has
4 relieved the minds Of some Of those who
feared that the government is planning a whole
sale destruction of the business interests of the
country. That Wall Street has been alarmed by
the recent action Of the department of justice is
evident by the decline in the value of stocks, ad-
versely affecting spectators, who forced values
beyond their normal level Genuine investors
have also been crippled, but those who deal on
the boards know the risks they are taking when
they invest their money in these securities. How
ever, it is we'll that the Attorney General has
somewhat relieved the situation. No sensible
man, for a moment, can believe that it is the
desire of the government to cripple the industries
Of the country. As Mr.. Bonaparte says, the gov
eminent is simply after the yiolators of the law.
And this being true it does not follow, by any
means, that the corporations and individuals that
may be accused in the government raids are

guilty Of the charges against them. Some Of
these charges in all probability are in

revenge on the part of some one. The side of
some of the accused corporations has not yet been
heard, and it is folly to assume that corporation,
for instance, that has had long and honorable

W sion the British improved the opportun-
ity to announce that they are planning to build a
battleship 10000 tons larger than the Dread
naught or the Delaware, which our own govern
ment proposes to construct.
This is the answer OF England to President

Of the world will go on equippng themselves
with engines of destruction for a conflict which,
should it come would cause such loss in life and
property that war would have to be abandoned
because of its very fury.

about it, but il was not long before

amount to nothing, and it didn't; and
is now in the scrap heap and more than
one hundred thousand dollars wasted. [

to proceed deliberately in spending
money which may be uselessly spent, as
was the case of the former filter.
