The common people, so de spised by the Whig aristoeracy swept all before them. And now for a third time the same old problem rears its head. The Republican party, the party of big business of centralized government, of high tariffs, which hurt the poor man, the party which has steadfy clipped away ihe rights of the states, has been in the saddle for many years. Gov ernor Smith, who hag made New York a model of state government through his re forms, a man who is of the people and for the people, stands out as the champion of . stafe rights, of low tariffs, againgt the domination of water power by powerful pri vate interests. He is a man who is pot sectionally minded, he is an American through and through, a man who has already demonstrated trans cendent ability as administra tor, unimpeachable integrity, and a clear understanding of the most important funetion of government—which is -to se cure the happiness and well being of the masses.
