speech of Governor Hughes.

The governor began by thanking the peo-
pie for the honor and renewed the pledges
he made two years ago. Then he said:
This is a critical period In nation ard
In state. In the nation we are threatened
by dangerous and flighty schemes which
would halt the advance Of prosperity, close
factories and demoralize honest trade. In
the state we are faced by the forces OF
reaction, who seek to destroy the reforms
already gained and to Tebuke those who
have labored to secure them.
Under the leadership Of Theodore Roose-
welt, the moral purpose of the people has
been Intensified and in response to an in
sistent demand important remedial legisla-
ton has been enacted, That We may have
genuine progress, that We may not pro-
strate the country by laundering efforts
Al reform, that We may conserve honest
enterprise by the wholesome application OF
remedies prudently devised, we need both
honesty Of purpose and discriminating
judgment, both generous impulse and ana
lytical power, both humanity and steadi-
ness. In order that the vast concerns Of
the executive department of the federal
government may be suitably administered,
that our resources may be conserved and
developed, that the interests of our insular
possessions may be properly cared for,
that we may maintain the high level Of
achievement in the conduct OF our foreign
affairs and in Internal administration;
that the vacancies about to occur In the SUI
preme court may most worthIly be filled;
that recommendations for legislation may
be practical and interviewer with activities
Of our people, Of woTkin gmen, farmers and
businessmen, OF all those engaged in the
les. innate enterprises OF our varied com
mprce. may be safeguarded, We need high
capacity. proved fidelity, the trained mind
and experienced hand, a man who is we'll

%viction, and such a man we present in tha
