HUGHES AS THE NEXT SECRE-
TARY OF STATE.

Authoritative announcement that
Charles Evans Hughes is to be secre.
tary of state under the Harding adj
ministration carries with ii the assur-
ance of an advanced degree of stabil-
itv and strength. Hughes is one OF
the leading Americans of his day, a
man actuated by high purpose, gifted
with unusual mental capacities and
experienced in the school of life in
many and varied forms. As special
Investigator of the insurance situa-
tion many years ago, as governor OF
New York, as a Justice of the United
States supreme court, as Republican
candidate for president four years ago
he has been more or less before the
public in the last score of years; and
in that time he has stood the test of
public opinion. The country holds as
good an opinion of him to-day as IL
did when first he came into public
notice-perhaps a better opinion by
reason of the belief that he has been
expanding in his mental viewpoint and
that he has lost nothing of that strict
integrity which characterized his en-
try into public life. Moreover, there
is certainty that Hughes viii not be a
rubber. stamp official. He has a mind
OF his own. As long as he is secretary
of state he will be secretary OF state
in fact. That frmness may lead him
into conflict now and then with the
other departments of government in
Washington, but if such differences
should arise II is quite likely to be the
case that Hughes will have taken
his stand on a high plane Of thinking
and not merely from the viewpoint of
cxpediency or the easiest course. So
she people win look with equanimity
and reinsurance on the selection Of
Hughes TO hold the premier position
in the Harding cabinet. One could
hope for nothing better than that the
other appointments would be relative
~ as good.

LETTERS TOTHE EDITOR
Washington's Birthday

Editor of the Barre Daily Times q
few DAYS ago | asked for space IN your
naror to call attention to the annlver-
sarv az Lincoln's birthday and TINS
time would ask for the same privilege
that might honor our first president
George Washington, who was born al
popes Creek, Westmoreland county
Va. on Feb. %, 1892.
A a boy he composed a set OF rules
Of conduct such as any well-mannereo
bav might Law down for his guidance
II ends however, with these Significant
words. Labor to keep alive IN your
heart that little spark OF CELESTIAL nre
called conscience"
Washington's country was his con
science. The pre- eminence OF Washlhs'
ton is founded upon his intelligence
and consistency in conducting one OF
the greatest revolutions OF this or OF
any time" From the moment that IN
denendepce was secured, no man 1T
America saw more clearly the necessity
of national union or defined more wise
" and distinctly the reasons for It. he
was felt as both an inspiring and aus
tanning power in the preliminary move
ment for union, and by natural selec
tion he was both president OF the con
veption and the head Of the govern
ment which it instituted.
History and traditions are explored
in vain for a parallel TO his character
He was the founder Of liberty, tn
friend OF man. In the annals OF moderT
greatness he stands alone. Born TIT
benefactor of mankind, he united al
the qualities necessary to an illustrlou
career. Nature made him great, h
made himself virtuous. Called by hi
country to the defense of her liberties
he vindicated the rights Of humanity.
No man ever stood for more to hi
country and to mankind than Georg
Washington. He was always the leade
Of the people. The superiority OF wash
ington's character and genius wer'
more conspicuous in the formation o
our government and in putting il on al
jndestructible foundation than in lead
ing armies TO victory and conquerinj
the independence OF his country.
"The union in any event is the cen
trail thought of his farewell address an'
all the years Of his grand life were de
voted to its formation and preserva
ton. His highest ambition was the hap
piness of mankind his noblest victor!
the conquest Of himself.
He lived the ornament Of the ISL
century; he died regretted by mourn
ing world and eternity alone will re
veal to the human race its debt o
gratitude 10 the peerless and immorta
name Of Washington.
