'''Charles Evans Hughes''' (1862-1948) was Governor of New York (1907-1910), Associate Justice of the Supreme Court (1910-1916), Republican Presidential candidate (1916), Secretary of State (1921-25), and Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court during the 1930s. He became a leader of the [[Progressive movement]] by calls for reform and by modernizing state government by enhancing the powers of the governor and the experts in its administrative bureaucracy.  He served as a [[Republican]] Governor of New York (1907-1910) after defeating leftist newspaper publisher [[William Randolph Hearst]]. Running as a middle-of-the-road Republican, Hughes was narrowly defeated for President by liberal Democrat [[Woodrow Wilson]] in 1916.
