An article in The Sun reports on an event at Carnegie Hall featuring Supreme Court Justice David J. Brewer and New York Governor Charles Evans Hughes as speakers. While Hughes briefly spoke on public officials’ duty being towards the people rather than their own ambitions, Brewer caused a stir by harshly criticizing President Theodore Roosevelt’s time in office, demanding that he not be given a third term, and calling Hughes a superior politician.
