Mr. HUGHES was successful in sponsoring the erection of more public buildings in West Virginia and securing more waterway improvement than any other Member from our State. His life was a remarkable one and illustrates the achievements. the honors which are obtainable by the laudably ambitious young men in this great country. whether immigrant or native born. under our beneficent systems of governmentState and national. But while such opportunities are placed within the reach of all. it is only the industrious. the energetic. and the persevering who succeed. The spirit of democracy is exacting and has no patience with the negligent and the indolent.
