AND CONGRTSS LAUGHED.

If the reports from Washington are
TO be believed. congress did not get ex-
cited about the presidents les males
lie message yesterday. The United
Press report has it that "the senate
enjoyed as huge joke a part of the
message. and that Vice President
Fairbanks somewhat ''lessened the
merriment in some degree by rapping
for order" The Associated Press. or
dinarily more conservative declares
that repeated peals of laughter
greeted the reading of the message
1t is little wonder that congress
laugher-iti is a healthy sign that con-
gress should laugh when the president
OF the United States proposed that
newspapers which criticize his action
should be muzzled by placing the pro-
prietor in Jail.
The World aptly states Mr.. Roose-
velts position when it says:
This is the first time a president
ever asserted the doctrine of les ma
jeste or proposed, in the absence of
specific legislation. the criminal pros
ecution by the government of citizens
who criticised the conduct of individu-
ais, who may have had dealings with
the government. eNither the king of
Great Britain nor the German emperor
would venture to arrogate such power
TO himself. John Adams attempt to
enforce the sedition law DESTROYED the
federalist party in America. Yet, Mr..
Roosevelt, in the absence of law. Off
cially proposes to use all the powers
OF the greatest government on earth
10 cripDle the freedom of fhe nreSS on
the pretext that the government itself
has been libelled-and he is the gov
eminent"
Rack of all this, however. is the
fact that Mr.. Roosevelt retorts with
personal abuse and cries OF "stop
thief" when at the outset all that was

HAY WILL GET THE JOB.

It seems that NJ. Hay spent a lot of
money advertising himself as repub.
lican aspirant for the lieutenant-gover-
nor's job and now there are some
people who would interpret the pri
mary election law, which is one of it's
haziest passages prohibits candidates
from playing the advertising game,
as disqualifying Mr. Hay from holding
the office to which he was elected. If
Hay can't have the job why, it is reas-
oned, Mr.. Coon, the present incumbent,
will hold on.
| OF course, anyone with half an eye
can see that this is but a Skirmish in
the big fight which is soon to be pulled
off for the governors chair. 1t is now
realized that Cosgrove, whom the
people named as governor, cannot live
to serve his term. even if he lives to
be inaugurated. If Cosgrove dies be-
fore inauguration day. it is generally
believed that the present governor, AL
bert E. Mead, who was defeated at the
primaries, will continue in the position,
unless the legislature should call
special election.
But if Cosgrove lives TO be inaugu-
rated, and Hay is inaugurated. the
Wilbur man will stand an excellent
show of inheriting the governorship
before his term expires. Just now, the
lieutenant governorship is a big prize.
and if Hay can be disqualified, Coon
will hold on. That Coon hopes to fall
heir to the executive Office is undeni-
ably true.
But back of 1t all remains the cold
hard fact that the people chose Co.'S
grove for governor. knowing the
probable Importance of the position,
they chose Hay, for lieutenant COVER
nor. If Cosgrove fails 10 serve out
his term, the succession, by all the
rules of common decency, belongs to
Mr.. Hay.
And The Evening Statesman VEN
lures the guess that in such an event,
Mr.. Hay will get the job.
