DOES NOT BOOM HIMSELF.
Hughes Makes Declaration Of Attitude
Toward Nomination.

Governor Hughes has made a dec
laration of his attitude toward the
presidential nomination, when in the
course of an address at a dinner given
in his honor by the republican club, he
said:
Il do not seek any public office.
have not sought, nor shall | seek, di-
rectly or indirectly, the selection or
the vote of any delegate to any con
vention, and with reference to the
election of any delegate to any con-
vention, there will be no suggestion or
thought of influence, protest or re-
prisal in the executive chamber"
Additional significance was given
his speech by reason of the fact that
ton in regard to the fusion of the re-
publicans and the independence league
on the New York county ticket.
In this particular he said:
Talking in this personal vein may
say that | have steadfastly refrained
from becoming associated in any man
ner with factiOnal controversies. |
have no connection or interest in the
ambitions or efforts of revivals for
political preferment or political lead
ership in any locality or in the state
at large. | desire to see party activi-
ties conducted honorably, the free eX-
preston of popular choice, and to have
the party organization represent the
untrammeled wish of the members of
the party, without any interference on
the part of the executive. To this end
| have favored the adoption of plan
for direct nominations and have ia
vored a permissive bill so that the
plan could have a fair trial in the
communities where it has the support
Of public sentiment. 1t is of great
Importance, in my judgment, that the
discharge of the duties of the govern
orship should not be embarrassed by
attempts at political management.
81 do not aim to be party boss. |
want simply to be governor during my
term"

WILL SUCCEED MRS. EDDY.
Mrs. Augusta Stetson of New York
Has Been Selected.

Has Been Selected.
Concord, N. H., Oct. 23.-Mrs. Au-
Gusta e. Stetson, first reader of the
Christian Science church IN New York.
has been selected as understudy Of
Mrs. Mary Baker G. Eddy, founder
of and high priestess Of the cult.
This fact leaked out here and in
cidentaily explains the presence during
the last six weeks of the countess Of
Dunmore, the most prominent of lead
ers of the church in England, and of
other Christian Scientists who have
the confidence of the aged reader at
her home in Pleasant View. At the
conferences held here a policy of alb
solute secrecy was decided on. There
fore, when inquiry is made at the mag
nifcent home of Mrs. Eddy, or other
places, no information is vouchsafed.
When the caro- of a prominent mem
Der of the faith was scent to the lead
er, asking for a momentary interview
to present important matters, he was
referred to page AGA of Science and
Health, which reads:
1T has been said TO the author, The
world is benefited by you, but it feels
your influence without seeing you.
Why do you not make yourself more
widely known" Could her friends
know how little tine the author has
to make herself outwardly known,
excepting through her publications
and how much time and toll are still
required to establish The stately opera
tons Of Christian Science-1hey would
understand why she is so secluded"
Mrs. Eddy will publish within three
months an addition to her Science and
Health which, it il understood here,
will deal at great length with the OPP
position of the medical fraternity to
the science movement and advise her
followers just what to do in hostile
communities.
