GOVERNOR HUGHES on HIS CAN
DIDACY

IL Is the opinion of many good OBJ
servers that, in all probability, Cover
nor Hughes has lost the opportunity
that the situation undoubtedly pre-
scented TO him some months ago. that
of becoming a formidable rival of Sec
rotary Taft as a candidate for the Re-
publican presidential nomination, says
the Chicago Record Herald. Certainly
the Taft movement has steadily been
gaining strength and momentum. and
not only do most progressive Repub-
licans recognize in the secretary the
natural representative of the forces
that have stood behind Roosevelt. but
there is widespread feeling that his
domination IS almost a foregone cons
clusion.
Yet the Hughes letter on the in
dorsement of his candidacy by the
New York Republican club is an i'm
portant incident in the campaign now
in progress. 1t clears the atmos-
phere for the friends as well as the
opponents of the governor. Ii makes
his attitude, so long matter of con-
lecture and speculation, plain and GER
tain. 1t will stimulate activity and
silence those at least in New York
who have been asked how they"can be
for man who does not know whether
he is for himself"
Governor Hughes so far satisfies
the, demands for light as to declare
that hA ic IN ahiHn hr no do
cision of his party in the state. He
insists, however, on honest, free and
full expression of party sentiment,
and on harmony of effort" He will
be a candidate if the party. or con-
trolling majority of it, shall deter
mine to urge his nomination.
But he also serves notice that he
will not attempt to influence in the flu
ture any more than he has attempted
TO do so in the past, the selection or
vote of any delegate. He will not
make his office tributary to any
candidacy" for II must remain 'im-
partial"
This is consistent and has the
Hughes ring. 1t is impossible to take
any exception TO the statement as a
whole or to any part of it. 1t ac-
cords with the expectations of Mr..
Hughes sincere admirers.
We may repeat what we have said
before on the significance of the
Hughes candidacy-that, while certain
reactionaries are unduly interested in
it, 1t is not candidacy that progress
sive elements will resent or fear. Be-
tween the position of Roosevelt, or Of
Taft, and that of Hughes on the great
questions of the day there is no vital
difference. 1t is not to be doubted
that Hughes would make an honest
Independent, able, enlightened presi-
dent and that the reactionaries would
be sadly disillusionized in the event
of his nomination and election. But
circumstances have made Taft the
leading and popular Republican can
didate, and the cause of constructive,
rational reform will be safe with him

quite an orator, and seemingly likes
it. He was one of the principal speak
ers at the dinner given the men and
pastor of the Broadway Methodist
church last night and occupied the
seat of honor. at the toastmaster's
right. His friends who heard his plea
for the denial of the Boyle license the
other night contend the city won't
need to employ additional legal talent
during his administration to take
care of the city's interest, as the
mayor will soon be able to take the
measure Of the most gifted orator in
