Ralph M. Easley shares with William Loeb the sentiments that a “very important labor man” expressed to him, feelings purportedly shared among all of the labor advocates who support Republican gubernatorial candidate Charles Evans Hughes of New York. These men hope that Representative Joseph Gurney Cannon will not be brought into the campaign. Those Cannon would influence already oppose Democratic candidate William Randolph Hearst and, because of his conflict with Samuel Gompers, Cannon could do more harm than good.
