The Great Thaw

In somewhat excited manner, at
times tinged with slight symptoms
OF hysteria. the Sun voices it's Joy
over what IL calls THE Great Thaw
In the West" II seems that Mr.
Hughes's opponents have been ma.
liciously disseminating a myth" 20
the effect that he Is devoid OF sym
patty with his fellow-Americsns."
No more damning charge" could
be circulated than this cunning
falsehood." because 'the people
want no man Of forbidding person
atty in the white house" The peo-
pie. however. had been informed
that his heart was as cold as his
exterior" and. If we understand the
Sun. they had believed this Gun
ming falsehood" until he went west.
Then the great thaw began"
Everybody will participate to
some extent in the Suns rapture
over the great thaw. II cites IAN
old fellow at San Diego" who ex-
pressed his approval OF Mr. Hughes's
demeanor. and certifes that, though
anonymous, "the old man was a
shrewd Judge OF human nature" But
test the judgment OF the shrewd but
anonymous old fellow of San Diego
be thought insufficient evidence, the
Sun clinches II by undeniable proof
| At the Detroit baseball game, when
Mr., Hughes "let the players shake
hands with him" the sight so pow
eFfHily- affected maH-whe- wac
| present that he exclaimed "By
golly. there's nothing cold about
him, He IL a modest man, but he
is all right"
To these verdicts by the old fel
low at San Diego and the man a
Detroit the Sun adds it's own testi
mony that at was the same unaf
fected, manly Hughes who went
dswn the shaft at Butte in miners
oilskins," and the opinion OF Fred
erick M. Davenport, that he is "a
real human being with. red blood
and a knowledge OF his kind" The
Suns manner Is trifie lyrical, but
little ecstasy may be forgiven In
one still shivering on the brink OF
an escaped peril. For II the great
thaw had not taken place just when
q did, Mr.. Hughes would surely have
Deen defeated: "the people want no
man OF forbidding personality in the
White House"
The great thaw at San Diego, al
the Detroit baseball grounds. and in
the shaft at Butte has melted a
peril. and the campaign can now
go on. Mr.. Hughes Is not a man
whose heart is as cold as his ex
terror" the exterior hides a warn,
and palpitating inside; the libel Is
as foul and dainnable as the same
libel against his warm and palpitat
ing colleague, Cheerful Charles Fair
banks Despite their exteriors, they
are constantly pulsating with love
OF their kind. and II they have tC
wear oilskins to prove II, they will
wear oilskins all the way from Butte
TO Boston-New York Times.
