4 RECORD Of
/. C.E. HUGHES
VETOED BILLS IN FAVOR OF LA
BORING CLASSES AND FARM
ERS WHILE HE WAS GOVERNOR
OF NEW YORK.

: Inventigation of the veto record Of
Charles Evans Hughes, republican
nominee for president, while he was
governor of New York in 1907, 1908,
1909 and 1910, indicates to political
annalists that the distinguished can.
didate's recently earned pseudonym
OF "The Great Pathfinder might fit,
tingly be supplemented by that of
"The Great Eyader." They suggest
the latter appelation in the sense
that his vto record is remarkable
for his failure to declare his attitude
Specifically on the fundamental prln-
ciples involved in numerous impor-
Slant bills and the frequency with
which he took refuge behind tech
nical objections or transferred re-
sponsblity to a commission uncon.
trolled by the legislature or the peo-
pie, thereby incurring the danger Of
giving autocratic legislative power to
bureaucracy which might easily be.
come dangerous.
They further emphasize that he
denied the right of the legislature to
define public policy, made Of the leg
islature "a rubber stamp" and as
sumed an equiyocal attitude on giving
women school teachers in New York
City equal pay with men, and lodged
the eight-hour labor principle in his
veto of bills providing for the three
platoon system of police service
which is now largely in effect in the
larger municipalities of the United
States. Investigators also find that
Hughes was prone to anticipate the
rulings of courts by assuming what
their decisions would be and by his
veto to deny courts the opportunity
to pass upon legislative measures.
Following are some of the interest
ing vetoes by Hughes while governor

reasons he ascribed for refusing his
official approval:

Alarm grows at the suction Of low

not the question. II 1t is a desirable
method there is nothing which pre-
vents any one Of the cities affected b.
this bill from adopting it. They have
ample authority for this purpose un-
der the present law.
"The feature of this bill which re-
quires consideration and the only rea-
son for its passage is, that by man
datory act of the legislature it would
compel these cities to adopt par
ticular method of dividing the police
force and of arranging tours of duty
without regard to the wishes Of the
citizens or the judgment ~ the local
officers who are responsible to the
citizens for the efficiency and proper
conduct of their departments.
This is unjustfiable Unless we
are to give up local government or
remove police administration entirely
from local control, the matters dealt
with by this bill should be left to
the regulation of the local authori-

point made by the annalists, after

ATTENTION, REPUBLICANS.

Kansas R yublicans, including the
standpatters who have reached the
conclusion, as so many of them have,
that Theodore Roosevelt is the man of
the hour for the Republican party, can
still play a part = bringing about his
nomination, even if they are at home
All that they need to do is to ac-
quaint the members of the Kansas
delegation to the Chicago convention
with the sentiment for Roosevelt that
pubicans in Kansas.
This can be done through the me-
dunn of might letters by wire or
special delivery letters through the
mails addressed to the Kansas dele
gates individually or collectively
These communications should be ad-
dressed to the headquarters of the
delegation, the Auditorium hotel, Chi
cago.
And the Kansas Republicans who
are alive to the necessities of the
party and their country can surely do
no less than to communicate in this
fashion to their representatives in the
Chicago convention; and request of
DaIlOIlnR.
they vote for Roosevelt and thereby
express the present sentiment of Kan
sas in respect to the Republican presi-
Dental nomination.
Stories in certain Kansas newspa-
pers from Chicago to the effect that
Roosevelt is already entirely out of
the running are fathered by wishes
and made out of whole cloth, as the
better informed dispatches of the re-
liable press associations and other and
more expert political newspaper men,
indicate.
Roosevelt is more in the running for
the Republican presidential nominal
tion than ever before. All that is
needed to make his nomination almost
certainty is that the delegates to the
convention be informed rightly of the
preponderance of the sentiment for
him among the rank and file of the
voters in the party

to inform their representatives ct Chi
