Gov. Hughes is proving highly un- satisfactory to the Democrats on his ‘western tour. Charles Murphy, head of Tammany Hall, has given an interview .de- nouncing Mr. Hughes as lacking con- structive ability and Secretary Mc- Adoo accuses the Republican candi- date of the crime of “pettifogging.” For some strang reason the Re- publican managers accept these criti- cisms of their hero with - extraor- dinary complacency. The Republi- cans insist that Mr. Wilson received thousands of votes from people who believed him to be a-peculiarly high- minded man and who had accepted his repeated commendation of civil service reform as sincere and that these are bound ‘to be alienated by the evidence Mr. Hughes -is present- ing of flagrant violations by Mr. Wil- son’s personal direction, of both the spirit and-the letter of civil service } reform. ‘When Mr. Hughes said at Fargo, i “I’d like to have authority- to-inves- tigate this:'administration for six months,” everybody cheered. Why? Because Mr. Hughes’ reputation us an efficient and merciless investaga- tor had gone before Him. His audi- dence remémbered the thorough and merciless investigation to which he subjected the insurance companies and they recalled, too, that it made not the ‘slightest difference to him whether it was corrupt contributions to the Republican or to the Demo- cratic campaign funds that he was exposing. People who have been paying spe- cial taxes, stamp taxes, income taxes, corporation taxes, etc., for the last three years, with the prospect of pay- ing moré when the pending revenue bill is passed, would like a Hughes investigation, not only of the pres- ent administration but of all previops administrations, that there may be some check on the gross extravagan- ces of public expenditures, the crim- inal waste of the people’s money. T The state game and fish commission has set aside 91,000 acres of land in Polk county for a game refuge. The refuges dre located near Crookston. Game refuges are necessary to save the state from the experience of a closed season of three or more years. “Wets ‘in lead,” “Drys in lead,” “Wets in lead,” etc., that is the way the Pioneer bulletins read this morn- ing when county option election re- turns were ~received. The vote switched from side to side as late re- turns were received. “It is more in- teresting than watching the score of the world’s’ series baseball games,” said one ‘of the bulletin watchers. But the big question was and is, “Who is going to win?” THE RAILWAY STRIKE. The .entire country is anxious re- garding. the railway strike which threatens to tie up the entire coun- try. New. York is especially anxious as that city is peculiarly isolated, and with its vast population, would be immediately menaced by a food fam- ine were its normal supply, shipped in daily, cut off. There is no city in the world that lives from hand to mouth as does New York, so that anx- ety regarding the strike in that city is personal aside from the terrible in- jury to the business conducted and represented there. President Wilson took a spectac- ular step when, after having received assurances that the railway employes would not order a’ strike until they had conferred with him, he digpatch- ed his secretary, Joe Tumulty, to New York, to. ask’ them to ‘do so, widely héralding his departure from Wash- ington and arranging to have Tu- multy met' by a host of newspaper men on his’ arrival in New - York, where he gave out Mr. Wilson's let- ter to the heads of the unions and the railways. ‘The unexplainéd ordering of an ad- ditlonal 25,000 militia men to the Mexican ‘border has created: an un- fortunate suspicion among:the rail- way workers. Many of them, in the absence of any good reason for this order, believe that it was specifically designed to afford the president an excuse for enjoining the railway em- ployes on the ground-that their strike was interfering with the military op- erations of the government. Inasmuch as conciliation is the chief requisite to any success which Mr. Wilson may have in the role of mediator, it is generally regretted that he should -have done -anything which so greatly arouses the.antag- onism of the railway men on the eve of his effort to settle the difficulty.
