Governor Hughes declaration in favor
of the Roosevelt policies is regarded as
excellent politics, in Washington, the
only defect being in the lack of force with
which the Governor expresses his views
which leaves the reader wondering if he
really believes what he says. 1t is prob
able that Mr.. Hughes does believe in the
views he expresses, although he is not
specific, but be is not man of force or of
very decided opinions, and that naturally
robs his remarks of that ring which the
public has come to look for in the
speeches OF public men.

tain laws and ordinances are now in

These have been the result of many
years experience and are now deemed
to d large extent sufficient to furnish

the city can be properly governed is
to enforce all laws fairly and impair

No officer has any power or right
