Mir. Hughes is denouncing President Wilson because there is extravagance in the government of the United States. But MT. Hughes gave New York the most extravagant Admin istration 1t had ever known.
 During the four. years previous to Mir Hughes the total appropriations made by the Legislature and signed by the governor aggregated 112,318,- 126.15. During the four years of MT. Hughes the total appropriations made by the Legislature and signed by the governor aggregated $150, 0,393,066.53. This was an increase of $SS.074,940.3S. The Governor of New York has power not vested in the President of the United States. He can veto sepa- rate items in an appropriation bill. Yet MT. Hughes exercised this power to so little effect that the appropria- tfons fer the last year of his Ad-
 ministration exceeded those of the last year of the Higgins Administration by
 more than $10,000,000.
 The present demoralization of the State finances began with the Hughes Administration, and when MT Hughes attacks the Wilson Adminis- tration for extravagance he inevit- ably calls attention to one of the weakest points in his own political career.
 MT. Hughes invites the same kind of an answer when he attacks the lPresident's appointments to office. MT
 Hughes is a good man and was q good governor. but his appointments
 on the whole were nothing to brae
 about. His political manager was
 Frederick c. Stevens, the Superinten- dent of Public Works. Mir. Stevens constructed for. MT. Hughes one o1 the tightest private political machines
 that New York has ever known, and l this weapon was. used freely in MT
 Hughes's warfare with the regular Re- publican organization.
 Most of MT. Hughes's appointees were Republicans of a mediocre type The World is by no means satisfied
