All will commend tne judgment ot P'csident Wilson in selecting judge Charles Even Hughes as an assistant; to. the attorney-general in the offi cial probe in the aircraft protluction. At the same time Judge Hughes is to be equally commended in taking on the job, which he is no doubt actuated lo do as u matter of patriotic citizen ship. With such a man behind the .rube there will be no uneasiness throughout the country that the in vestigation will not bo rapid and thorough and that nothing will be co vered up or whitewashed, no matter from what source the dereliction may come. Judge Hughes already has ; record in such affairs and his work was without spectacular appendages and for no other purpose than tbat ol , seeing equal and exact justice p." .vail, ' .. ' When the insolence of "big busi- nesr ," as - fostered and practiced by the Insurance companies of Nov. j York and elsewhere, descended to the level of brigandage. It was Judge liughes of New York, who stripper the masks from the robbers and made them scatter to the woods That was a feat accomplished when . it was not only a man's job, but in reality a job for several men, at the insurance transactions which pre ceded the final exposure were hand ltd with the adroitness that is t 'necessary accomplishment of the ptv ished crook. Moreover, a high qual ity of courage was required to set nt defiance the well-entrenched syn dicate of swindlers composing the in surance ring. Judge Hughes is probably better qualified In the way of experience tt 1 bundle yie big probe thnii any other man in the United States, and the chief executive is right in advising the quick-triggered critics to hold ofr nnd let a man do the job who knows how to do It. which preceded the catastrophe at! docile children, going over the top Brest-Litovsk, nnd these five reels' to a Gorman trench less than 00 see these finei before hail 1st! trnus in llliuier. ,..u:-u !..-..! .1 4:-.. ri . .... . . . . ... i organization, and - Ml6s Iva Cunlilln. wn0 Jllst l', Petroi d and Urn i f ?' 8 V T "rT r "i .

Unless there is a pronounced speeding up during the lutor hours! ft0rk grips him. of the day a small vote will be cast in the primary nominating election. The main reason for this apparent lack of interest is without doubt the overshadowing issue that is at stake lx-tween Prussian autocracy mid world-wide freedom. Tho voter who I'us relatives or friends nnd those who huve neither arc mighty seurci who are involved directly in the conflict, or who are liable at nny time to go across, has but small in terest in political candidates.
