EVERYONE PLEASED
WITH APPOINTMENT

WASHINGTON. u. c.. April 20
A canvass of the situation to-day In
dictated that the recommendation by
the judiciary committee and the con-
firmation by the Senate Of the APP
potntment of Governor Hughes to the
supreme bench will be unanimous. Not
a discord has sounded here in the
chcrus Of approval and probably no
official act OF President Taft has re-
ceived such general appreciation.
Chairman Clark republican, Wyo-
ming. OF the Judiciary committee.
said to-day that IL there had been any
occasion for II. he would have called
q special meeting to pass upon the
nomination. The next regular meet
ing OF the committee viii be held on
Monday. is possible that the senate
will act as soon az the recommen-
dation IL made.
Mr.. Hughes ability is so generally
recognized and confidence in his fair
ness so strong that his appointment
ia commended by many WHO disap-
prove some OF his acts as governor.
His veto OF the twc-cent fare bill
and his condemnation OF the income
tax amendment to the constitution are
in direct opposition to the views OF
many of the senators. but they -rould
not on that account deprive the peo-
pie OF his service on the bench. The
senators Of the West felt that their
section. should provide the successor
OF Justice Brewer. but to this time
they have made no complaint. An
indication of the general sentiment
Is shown in the fact that Senator
Borah Republican. daho). q member

Democratic leaders profess to be
