THE "tERl E. Of HtLii H+lf I''
Mula Hafig. the wOuld-be usurper OF the
throne of Morocco, has been winning some VIC
tories over the troops of the rightful Sultan ana
getting himself proclaimed Sultan, at various
pluces by various authorities, and now sends a
circular letter to the members of the diplomatic
CORDS in that delectable country asking them TO
recognize him as the sole and lawful sovereign.
At the same time he has been saying to his
followers and TO the MorOCcans generally that
he purposes to drive out the impure foreign
ers" to throw the French into the sea, TO
'"annihilate the French and to 'cut off the In
fideIs' heads" and it Is we'll known that he be-
ran his insllreent career with the avOwed in
tenti0n of organizing holy war against all
foreigners and-in case he succeeded in win.
ming the Shereeian throne-of repudiating all
treaties and other foreign obligations which his
predecessors had made.
In view of such amiabe purposes on his part
his request for recognition would seem to indi-
cate that Mulai Hafg carries his nerve with
him wherever he goes, from Atlas to the Riff,
and that that indispensable portion of his eth
zeal makeup is in robust health and athletic
training 1t will be interesting to observe the
reply which the powers will make to request
which being interpreted substantially reads:
Come. recognize as Sultan in order that
may have your authority for driving you out
of the country and repudiating all engagements

PLAIN AND UNAVOIDABLE"
From The Boston Advertiser.


Governor Hughes declined to allow himself to be
considered candidate for Vice President. That
his right, although there is nothing in the
position to justify the noteworthy repugnance OF
statesmen to accepting II. But Governor Hughes
might fairly claim that his duty to his country Law
elsewhere, II 1t be his purpose TO accept renomi-
ma ton as Governor. For any man who has studied
that the duty of Hughes to for one more
Is plain and unavoidable. 1t Is quite possible
that when he accepted the nomina tion Mr. Hughes
had determined that he would but the one
term. 1t is quite probable that his one term has
given him such distaste for politics that he would
he has had enough of politics to satisfy him for
the of his lifetime. But those considera-
tions do not justify Governor Hughes in refusing
the nomination If II should be offered to him
THE PEOPLE WANT HIM"
From The Watertown Times.
Now that the Republican National Convention is a
matter of history and Governor Hughes comes out
of the contest with dignity and honor in spite of
the action of the few bitter partisans on the New
York delegation who did their utmost to discredit
him in the convention. the question OF renomina-
tion OF the Governor again comes for consider
alton. Certain 1t is that the people who have SO
Loyalty supported him In his magnificent fight for
higher standard OF political life and for the cor
rection of the wrongs under which the people have
been suffering so long will not be satisfied unless
the Governor consents to continue the work so well
begun. 1t Is true that the men whose policies he
ministratlon OF Governor Hughes was TO end with
the present term But If the politicians do nor
want MIN the people do. He is too vaiuable a pub
lie servant and too strong moral leader to Ina
allowed to return TO private life now that he has
