, fine-toothcomb the country for a man ideally suited, in their estfma- 1 tion, for the position. They came as near selecting such one in Hughes as it is possible for them to do. Hughes is man with quite clean record for a former Governor of the State of New York. That he had any sympathy with labor or any new | fangled radicalism was quite imposs-
 ible. He was very Superior" man.
 His family connections were all they ought to. be. As a lawyer he had l not been either Shyster or pettifogger. He had highly lucra-
 tive corporation practice. He was
 the father confessor in legal w."
 of number of great men guilty of l financial ways that were dark and commercial tricks that were vain
 He had established quite reputa-
 tion for probity and Integrity On
 the bench he had handed down | decision against labor in the Dah- bury Hatters case, but he very right.
 ly explained that on the bench he
 had to interpret the laws and if the laws were so against labor that was
 not his fault. He had opposed his
 brethren on the bench in favor of
 the Kansas Anti-Coercion act and
 his opinion is one that received la
 bor approval
 So taken on the whole he was
 known to be safe and known to be } one who was least open 10 attack. , If Hughes should be successful. and it is not impossible that he will be. his Foreign Policy will be one } country until it is known at least what it will be. The peculiar act ions of the so-called hyphenates in leaping to support Hughes to defeat 1, Wilson was no more peculiar than | it was childish and silly. Wilson's gravest mistake was to give that de-
 lection any sort of dignified recogni- ton even by an aeid reply to the note of an Irish American politician. } What Wilson was towards the Ger man policies which so frequently 5 elicited notes, that Hughes will be l and more The relation between l Morgan and Wilson were never ex- cessively cordial. The relations be- tween Hughes and Morgan have ak
 most approached the familiar . ground of master and valet. Where Hughes probed insurance, his probe only opened the way to the complete control by the House of Morgan a short time later was able according to testimony before the Pujo Com
 mittee to tell Ryan that he had bet ! ter sell his control of the Equitabb } Funds for fourteen million because
 he (Morgan) needed it himself.
 Now the House of Morgan is the
 representative of the Entente Pow
 CTS in a financial way in the United
 States. and if we did not know that
 many Jeremiah A. O'Learys were
 much more feigning than Fenian,
 we might possible wonder at the un-
 equalled stupidity of turning from
 Wilson to Hughes. It is so gro
 tesque that it is amusing
 It is quite apparent that most Of the German realized that,
 and did not support Hughes. They
 applied the yard stick to him and El found he did not measure up to 'I their standard. Whether this is to
 the credit of Hughes or not need
 not be discussed. It all tends how | ever to show why it Is this election
 was so close.
 \ On almost every question involved l there was manifest division except X on the labor vote. That was given
 to Wilson with such sincerity that I it well might have been worth l better cause. That Gompers should q yet be able to fiatter himself that inc is political Warwick makes his
 control of the American Federation
 of Labor even more undesirable I thing from the standpoint of Labor
 than ever.
 That however he can do. He can }! turn to Wilson and tell him, I whether the president is reelected
