Chicago.—Charles Evans Hughes,
former governor of New York and un-

ated for the presidency by the repub-
lican national convention.

His Identity.
We met a man with the most as-
toundingly lugubrious cast of counte-
nance that we had ever seen. Gloom
sat on his brow like a brooding con-
dor on her nest and an abysmal Bad-
ness seemed devouring him.
"Ah!" said we, "we perceive that
you are a celebrated wag, for, in Booth,
we have never before In all of woe's
appointed ways beheld such a personi-
fication of wretchedness."
"No," he replied, "I am not a humor-
ist. I feel as Bad as I look. I am a
pacifist, and believe that preparedness
will inevitably bring on war."
"You do well to mourn your awful
condition," we returned. "If you wore
a humorist you might get over it. But j
you are a dad-burned fool, and there
is no help for you!"

ed this count: Fairbanks 863, Burkett

Almost at the same moment that
Hughes was named, Theodore Roose-
velt was nominated by the progressive
national convention and John M. Par-
ker, of Louisiana, was named as his
running mate.
Mr. Roosevelt's provisional refusal
to accept the progressive nomination
is believed by the politically wise to
leave the door ajar, if not wide open,
for the eventual withdrawal of the
third ticket in the event Mr. Hughes'
position on what the progressives
feel to be the vital Issues of the cam-
paign meets their approval. To this
extent at least the leaders In both
parties feel that the efTorts at har-
mony, even if not directly fruitful of
results, may yet be realized.
Hughes Resigns Supreme Bench
Washington.—An hour after he had
been nominated for the presidency by
the republican party, Charles Evans
Hughes had discarded the judicial
robes of the supreme court and is-
sued his creed of candidacy, robbing
Theodore Roosevelt of every vestige
of a third party platform with the
possible exception of universal mill
tary training.
He's For Preparedness
While Mr. Hughes comes out flat-
footedly for a big army, big navy and
thorough preparedness "industrially
itnd economically," he dodges the uni-
versal military service idea which Mr.
Roosevcelt demands.
"Virile Americanism that knows no
ulterior purpose," is the keynote of
Hughes' pronouncement, which was
jssued in the form of a telegram of ac-
ceptance to the convention immedi
rtely after he sent his resignation as
an associate justice of the supreme
court to President Wilson.
Mexican Policy Weak
Mr. Hughes terms President Wil-
son's "watchful waiting" In Mexico as
"weak and vacillating" and "lament-
ably wrong." Speaking of the Euro-
pean attitude of the administration,
Hughes indicates that he thinks Wil-
son should have cried out in behalf
of outraged Belgium at the beginning
of the war. "Brave words have been
stripped of their force by Indecision,"
he writes, referring to the diplomatic
correspondence.
