Fully Indorscs Hughes.
MIR. Hughes has shown In his ca
recr the instinct Of efficiency which
will guarantee that under him the
government will once more work with
yigor and force. lie possesses that
habit OF straightforward thinking
which means that his words will be
correlated with his deeds and trans
lated into facts Ills past career is
the warrant for our belief that he will
be the unfaltcring opponent OF that
system OF invisible government which
finds expression in the domination or
the party boss and the party machine.
His past career II a guarantee that
whatever he says before election will
be made good by his acts after elec-
ton. Morally. his public record
shows him TO be a man OF unbendlng
integrity: intellectually u shows him
20 be a man OF original and trained
ability.
We have the alternative OF contlnu-
ing In office an administration which
has proved a lamentablc failure, or
Of putting into office an administra-

for the interest and honor OF all our
