You may recall that there were some very important investigations in the city of New York. The first of these had relation to the charge to be made for gas. I was requested by a legislative committee to undertake that investigation. I had no desire to undertake any inquiries which could have possibly any political re- cannot repeal what has been done b_v! this abdication of authority,” Mr.| Hughes continued, “and, further, your| question shows that you do not fully| ;!\I‘I!crsrand the terms of the Adamson | 1l “Under the Adamson bill—it goes| into effect the Ist of January—then there is a provision that for six| months or nine months there shall| ihen the wages, which are to be upou'! this new basis, shall continue to he| peid until thirty days after the report of the commission. “Now, sir, this will have been in operation for a very long time be- | fore I should even take the executive | chair, if elected, and will have com- pleted its purpose before congress would have its session in the follow- ing December. To Act According to Justice. “I do 'not suppose that any ques-| tion of repeal would be involved, but | I do say that when that questior arises, if it does arise, if I am elected. | I will follow the principle that I now state and have just stated of ascer- taining the exact facts and what jus- tice would dictate ought to be done at that time.” How Labor Has Won. “I think that labor, when it takes account of the whole matter, will realize that it has won its victories in the past representing the plain peo- ple of the country by the processes of reason. Those are the processes which count in the long run, We can have disturbances; we can have agitation | but;we won't have stability in that way. We wont’ have a basis {or Amer- lation or any other purpose than to ascertain exactly what was fair and just. ¢ “The assurance was given me that 1 would have a free hand for that ;)urpoue. We went ahead on that ine, and as a result, the city of New York had legislation in its favor by which the consumers of gas paid a rate as fixed by law and sustained by the courts, of 80 cents Life Insurance Probe. “Then followed an investigation of much wider concern. It related to the security of the homes of America. It related to the security of those who, through life insurance, had en- deavored to protect their wives and their children against the hazard of ,untimely death, We had in that a very laboriqus inquiry. It brought t¢ my attention a great variety of mat- ters deeply affecting the interests of the community. “We endeavored to safeguard the licy holders of the nation by wise egislation, regulating our life insur- ance enterprise. We endeavored to gee to it that public supervision should be entirely impartial and wholly efficient in the interest of those concerned in this great enter- prise. Called to Governorship. “I was called from this to the gov- ernorship of the state. I went with a great deal of information with re- spect to the conduct of public busi- ness.

You cannot find a man in New York state who would stand up and honestly say that dur- ing my term, there was a suggestion of any secret or improper influence with respect to executive action at all times. “At the same time we had legisla- tion dealing with the great subj of the regulation of the public utili- ties. There were men who did not at that umwe the importance of that action. 'We thought that it was time to vindicate the supremacy of the public interest. We did not buy otr way through the legislature; we did not compromise with principle. We went straight to the people of the state, and the people sustained our policies and they were enacted into law. i Against Invisible Government, “I desire to say to my fellow citi- zens that no one more than I, stands determinedly against every influence of the invisible government, against < every alliance of business and poli- tics, against every subversion 6f the machinery of government to any private purpose, against every means of corruption in our public [ife. “And [ should not want to occu the highest station in the gift of u{ people excert upon the terms upon which I shall occupy it if called; and that is that there is no promise or obligation to any man, and that we will stand there with visible govern- ment, according to our constitutional system, in the interest of all the people of this land.” The nominee had just about con- cluded his attack on the administra- tion for the enactment of the Adam- son bill when he was asked if he would repeal the measure if elected.

It is more | important that we have stability for the working man than for anybody else in the country. That is the very foundation of the bright prosperity that we hope to enjoy, and I 'desire to say this, that I know of but one way of dealing with those problems. We have education, we have schools, we have newspapets, we have every variety of instrumentalities for learn- ing what is going on in the world, and what ought to be done, Let us have confidence in organized public judg- ment. Let .us have confidence in the processes of reason. At any rate, I think it now ought to be demon- strated in this country that that is what the majority of our people in- sist upon.

A Friend of Labor, The stenographic record of the pro- ceedings showed Governor Hughes had been enumerating the many laws for labor enacted by the republican vice. streaked and party while in power. This the re- port showed: “Now that Governor Hughes has retired from politics and ascended to o place on the highest judicial tribunal | in the world, the fact can be acknowl- edged without hurting anybody's po- litical corns that he was the greatest friend of labor laws that ever occupied the governor's chair at Albany.” (Ap- plause.) “During his two terms he has signed fifty-six labor laws, including among them the best labor laws eves enacted in this or any other state. He has vrged the enactment of labor laws in his messages to the legislature, even going so far as to place the demand for a labor law in one of his mes- sages to an extra session of the leg lature. Only 162 labor laws have been enacted in this state since its erection in 1777—in 133 years. One third of these, exceeding in quality all of the others, have been enacted and signed during Governor Hughes' term of three years and nine months.” {Applause.) Social Legislation. Mr. Hughes said: “We had social legislation of great importance. The reorganization of our labor department and one act after another was passed through the cupport of the people of the state. T desire to say to my fellow citizens that no one more tfmn 1 stands de- termined against every influence of the invisible government, against every alliance of business and politics, chinery of government to any private purpose, against every means of cor- ruption in our public life.

Nowadays, though, we, don't have the troublesome task of gathering the sage and the mussy mixing at home. All drug. stores sell the ready-to-use product, improved by the addition of other ingredients, called “Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound,” for about 50 cents a bottle. It is very opular because nobody can discover it has been applied. Simply moisten your comb or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morn- ing the gray hair disappears, but what delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound is that, be- sides benutifullf darkening the hair after a few applications, it also pro- duces that soft luster and ‘appearance of abundance which is so attractive. This ready-to-use preparation is a delightful "toilet requisite for those who desire a more youthful appear- snce.

This decision reverses a recent order of the federal district court. The case was considered a test of the application of the new law upon which disposition of similar cases in other states will depend.
