LET HONEST VOTERS
DECIDE NOMINATION
No Sharp Legal Tricks to
Be Employed by Judge
Robinson.

CHARLESTON, June 1s.-Absolutely
convinced that Judge Robinson is
nominated by safe majority on the
face OF the returns, the friends Of the
Grafton man are resting on their oars
content to await such time until all
the official returns had come into the
Secretary of States Office, while the
counsel for Mr.. Lilly, on the other
hand, who have served notice OF re-
counts In practically every county car.
ried by Judge Robinson, stated that
they expected to rely upon all legal
technicalities that would gain any ad.
vantage for them.
Judge Robinson declared today that
he did not desire any nomination
brought about by technical legal
points,. He expressed desire to abide
by the result as indicated by the face
OF the returns or as shown by proper
recounts. To reporter he said that
Il do not want to deprive any honest
voter by his vote merely through some
legal subterfuge for which he was not
responsible and which perhaps was
due to some failure on the part OF
election officers to properly instruct
him." The position taken by Judge
Robinson is open and fair and from
the beginning OF the fight he has In.
dictated that his only desire was to
abide by decision OF the honest ma.
jority.
Judge Robinson has emphasized the
fact that the only reason prompting
him to demand recount in any coun.
ty was due to the fact that Mr.. Lilly
has demanded recounts In practical
ly every county that the latter lost
He has been compelled to protect his
own interests by insisting upon re.

majorities appeared on the canvassed

label to either candidate. Yet many who would not
think Of doing SO in Mr. Wilson's incline to
pect Mr. Hughes Of affiliations with the "standpa" ele-
ment Of his party. There could hardly be futile
misconception The record of Mr.. Hughes Governor
Of New York is sufficient to dispel It. No man ever
showed himself more heatily In sympathy with wise
reforms. None ever less subservent to the
bosses" or the Interests" The voters have short
memories but they must recall this fact. At all events
Mr. Hughes Is certain to make plain where he stands
the issues to which the Progressyes lay especial
claim. He will longer be hampered by the restraint

tribunal No argument in favor Of Progressive vote
for Mr. Wilson does not apply equally well to Mr.
Hughes.
But this is not the main point There are other arti
ces in the Progressive creed than those on which both
candidates agree One is preparedness The President
has no more bitter critic this question than Mr.
Roosevelt Another is foreign policy. Here too the
Progressves have taken strong stand against him.
third is the tariff Protection is much part Of the
Progressive faith of the Republican. If there are
members of the party who still doubt which candidate
