Hughes is being congratulated upon
his splendid race. He has been fight
ing the fight of the people accord
ing to those claiming to be independ-

the gambling and saloon element al

by the gamblers primarily because of
his attitude on betting at the race
tracks and is regarded by some turf
followers as having killed the sport.
A more liberal man has been wanted
for the governors chair. Hughes has

of the old ring Of the republican party
and this has made his struggle the
more interesting as he was recognized
as being opposed by men who super
fically appeared as favoring him. His
victory is signal triumph.
