WARRINGTON, June 21-The Re- publican convention gave us a can didate Uut, what is more gratifying, it gave the Republicans a leader, sometniug We have not had since Colonel roosevelt shook The dust of' ais feet and departed four years ago.

Picked By The Voters

It was the voter who instinctive- ly selected Lincoln in 1860, and it was the voter who Tenominted him in 1884 at a time when practically all the prominent men in his party were against him. It is a histor- ic fact that had the renomination of Lincoln depended on tha so-called, he would have been defeated ill the convention. But public Opin- ion drove the so-called leaders to cover.
 l venture to prophecy that
 time, and brief time, will dem
 onstrate Hughes to be in every
 sense of the term a leader of
 his party. No one doubted that
 whGp his reply came into the
 COi VentiOn. In moral purpose,
 in intellectual power, in the
 right conception of the true
 aims and obligations and duties
 Of the American democracy he
 measures up to the require
 nGRts of true leadership.
