Hughes Or Wilson?

(NeW York Evening POst. We have received a number of let ters asking whom the Evening Post is going to "support' for the presi- dency. Some of these inquiries are quizzica1, some are petulant. One of them demands an answer on the grounds that Wagers are being made on what the attitude Of the Evening g Post will be! But there need be no mystery about this. We are in the same boat with the great body of in dependent voters They have not yet made up their mind what ballot they will cast next November; so why pre- tend that they have? The evidence is not yet all before us; and belief, or action, without sufficient evidence is the curse of American politics. If ever there was a presidential cam- paign in which suspense of judgment was a duty-and an easy duty-it is that of the present year.
 It is not a question of the person. ality of the candidates. In that re- spect the country is singularly for tunate this year. A veteran political observer was remarking the other day that he had never known anything like it. He could recall no presi-
 
 plausibly be alleged that one of the candidates was incompetent or else dangerous. That could be asserted by no impartial man of either Presi- dent Wilson or Governor Hughes Both are personally of presidential size able, experienced, honest. Hap py the republic that has a choice be- tween two such men.
 Behind the candidates stand their parties, but party names never meant so little to Americans as at present. The numbers who will vote tho Straight ticket simply because it is labelled republican or democratic, must be less than ever before. The progressive breakup is only symptO- matic of the general obliterating of old party lines The two platforms really raise no sharp issues. One might almost be substituted for the other Both read as if written by men who held with the old English politician that 1t Is "inconvenient to have opinions'-at least, to have opinions which cannot be altered in the course of the contest. Herein lies, in truth, the great reason why inde- pendents incline to wait until they know what the casting of their vote will really mean. For the campaign is yet to be defined Today it is con- fused. Everything will depend upon the course of events, and upon the way in which MT. Hughes and Presi- dent Wilson give us the watchwords of debate and the true leading of party. ," ~- .
