I min rT Two Decisions about two judicial decisions. Governor Hay violated the direct primary law four years ago by spending thousands of dollars il- legally in his race for lieutenant governor. Charles Coon, one of his opponents, brought action against him. The supreme court found Hay guilty of the charge made against him. The facts were beyond estion against Hay. Was Hay removed from office? No, indeed not. For the supreme court suspended Hay’s sentence. It announced that-“the penalty of removing him from office would be too great.” In other words, Hay was given another chance. And Hay has taken the other chance. He spent twice as much this year in his primary campaign only. Together with his final elec- tion expenses, he will have paid out for another term an interview iy a THE STAR—MONDAY, OCTOBER o UR Rs es ~ Wa U | “Pred, dear, your safety ra the beat thing | ever used fo “Robb's father and mother fought @ach other for years.” Yeu; he says that he thinks he fs eligible to membership in the Sons of Veterans.” Kitty—Mise Searing ta going to) th Pow ‘ marry @ struggling ng man | ping up facings.

The Republicans have nominated Job Hedges, a man with a clean, honorable record, politicaJly and personally. The essives have put up Oscar Straus—humanitarian, phil- anthropist, an ideal type of American citizenship. The Demo- crats have chosen William Sulzer. He has been a party man, and a Tammany man, but ‘not of the corruptive type. He stands for principles as well as party, and disdains personal advantage No matter whom the voters of New York state elect, they scem destined to have an honest governor and a good administration What a situation! What's this country coming to, any- way? Observations OUR little secretary of state will leave the golf links long enough to make a Taft speech while he’s in town.

They must have expected an in crease in dividends, poor things! a wail IT’S really funny. On the one hand, the standpatters are spending all kinds of sums in newspaper, billboard, and street car advertising in an effort to stop the tide against them.
