Hoosrvtlt Not Friendly lo Hughes
Hughes Does Not Like Roosevelt
and Would Not Accept His For-Got'-and-Country
Platform G. 0.
P. Not Really for Hughes.
fllr Ollion Gardner.)
WASHINGTON, March 80. There
nro four rotiiong why Justlco Charloa
K. IIiirIios will not be nominated at
the republican national convention ns
the imrty'H republlcan-proRroMlvc
liuriuoiiy candidate for prouldont.
They are:
( 1 ) KooiovpU does not 11k
Iluglict and would not support lilni.
(2) Iluplies does not like Hoosc
volt and would not accept tho ltitter'8
for-C!od-niid-country platform.
(.1) HtiRhes would not Hko to
lonvo u life Job as Justlco of tho
miprcmo court on tho chance of Ret
ting tho presidency or defeut unless
tho ehiuico of Retting tho presidency
can be niado inoro attractive than It
In likely to bo ninde.
( t ) The roputfllcan contention
"Hrrnni'.em" are probably not really
for HukIioh. but nro using him ns a
stullUnn horso In the belief that they
can trade and dicker for some "emin
ently satisfactory" man of tholr own
brand of statesmanship.
There are soverul other seasons
why Hughes will not be nominated,
but these will accomplish the insult.
Pnigirftsho Itcconl
Ouo of tho most rcmarkablo things
nlHjut the Hughos boom Is tho fact
that it has gone aliowl on tho as
HUinptlini that Hughos would have
tho jitip.iort of the progrosslvos. That
Hughes lias no claim on progressive
ronfldmico Is Indicated by tho fol
lowing facts:
(1) Ho was appointed to the
supreme court by President Taft,
who Ik not famod for appointing pro
grewilvp to rosponslblo Judicial Jobs.
(2) Ho was nomlnatod to the po
sition of attorney In the Insurance
Investigation by Strong. Cudwallader
ft Co., from which firm Taft took his
uttornoy-gonerHl, (leorgo W. Wlckor
shani. 13) Tho Insurance Invsstlgatlon
which made Hughes famous, was
subsoqumitly discovered to bo moro-
ly an Incident in a battlo royal be
tween two financial groups each
Mking possession of the vast cap
ital of the insurance companies. The
oxuos In tho public Interest was a
weapon used against the Harrlman
group. Tho Ilyan group won.
Itwnnl (lotontor
( l As n reform governor of New
York. Hughes mado popular primar
ies his ono slogan, and wont out of
office with no primary law enacted,
and the Harnos-Murphy bl-purtlsan
control still all-powerful.
(.1) During tho years when the
progreislvos of tho country were
flghtliiK for such things as popular
elmtlnn of senators, regulation of
rllwnj rule, restraints on ovnrcap
Utilization. Income-tax amendment,
strengthening the anti-trust law, and
all tho program of labor legislation.
Charles 1C. Hughes was not hoard to
endow or otherwise aid In any way
any of these isuses.
() As Justice of the siipremx
court Hughes handed dowu derls
lous "dissolving" the Standard Oil
and Tobacco trusts. These decrees
were einpt) forms as the court must
have known and might have sinre
discovered by their operation on the
retail prices of Standard Oil products
and thu profits and stock values of
that concern. In the case of the
Tobacco trust, the emptlnoss of the
Ueree wag pointed out to the court
in a brief by ex-Altornoy Genera)
(mow mii Associate Justice) James ('
MfKyno!ds, and by Louis I). Ilran
dels; but Mr. Justice Hughes decllu
m1 to act on the suggestion of the
brief, and has shown no evidence or
h desire to make the Standard Oil de
vision anything more than a vm-U-souudinx
legal theory.
l'lnal Iiis4iii fin- itefusiil.
Tor these reasons Mr Justice
Hughes would fall to poll the Notes
wf the forward-looking wlug of the
republican party.
A flaal reason why the nomination
oaaaet be made attractive te Jutic
HugliM Is the avtliorlMd sanounie
wtfiit that the progresalTc ware ation
will be h"ld In Chicaxa June 7. and
the equally authoritative announie
weut that his body will name T
Koosevelt as the party's candidate
far the presidential office with
lto.ivelt In the ruaniag and Hughes
put forward on an unwritten plat
form aa the choice of Penrose, Crane,
Mantes and HMIea. the prospect would
hardly be one to tempt the honorable
Justice from his wore obscure bur.

the bill on which the commlltco has
agreed, and ns soon ns printed this
bill will bo referred to tho nttornoy
general, secretary of the Interior and
secretary of agriculture for comment
and suggestions. It Is not oxpectcd
thoy will now propose material
changes of policy, but the committee
before reporting tho bill to tho house
wants the approval of tho three de
partments. Tho committee, first votod down an
amendment giving 10-10 to state and
counties; then 30-30, then 2."-2r.
Mr. Slnnott then offerod an amend
ment requiring the reclamation sharo
to bo used on Oregon projects.
This was defeated, and a like fntc
met an amondmont requiring that
half the reclamation share be spent
In the state.
It wns the general opinion of thu
committee that the bill Is prlvllogod
In character, but If tho speaker holds
otherwise a special Yulo will bo asked
to expcdlto Its consideration In tho
houso.

If tho American consul should leave,
