The duties Of judge of the Supreme
Court are of the most delicate and
responsible character-too delicate
and responsible to be exposed to a
compromising personal campaign for
votes. The Office has never been
pulled down to that level, and no one
has ever before thought he could
pull himself up to the Office by such
methods.

YOur Duty Next Tuesday.

Il ought not to BE- necessary to re-
mind the Republicans Of PennsyIvan-
ia Of their duty on November 2d.
Bat the largo mslorities this State
has recorded for the Republican tick.
ct have made thousands Of voteS
carless. They are stalwart Republi.
cans and when they go to the polls
they vote straight ticket. They
are not Indifferent to party success;
they merely take the election Of the
Republican ticket for granted and
do not go to the trouble of voting
State Chairman Andrews a few days
ago warned Republicans against
over-cOnfidence He referred to the
axiom Of warfare that an army con.
stantly must be on guard and ap.
peaied TO every Republican to cast
his vote.
The voters should respond to this
appeal. No better candidates have
ever been presented to the people of
this State than A. e. Sisson, ]. A.
Stober and Robert Won Moschzisker.
They possess exceptional quaIifica.
tions for the offices for which they
we're nominated. They should not
merely be elected; they should re.
ceive an overwhelming majority, for
they are worthy Of such a majority.
The Democrats will endeavor to
poll their full party vote. A reduced
majority for the Republican ticket
will encourage the Democracy In its
hope of electing Democrat the sue
cessor Of Governor Stuart next year,
and an increased representation In
the Legislature and in Congress.
Pennsylvania should take no back.
ward step. Last year it gave the
Republican national ticket a larger
majority than any other State. That
majority should be followed by an
other Overwhelming majority this
year. The keystone States title to
the position at the head of the Re.
publican column should remain un-
questlonably.
There Is another reason why the
Republican ticket this year should
be elected by . record breaking Off
year majority. Within the past few
days the newspapers have printed
dispatches from the West, telling Of
the plans Of the low-tariff advocates
to renew vigorously at the next sess-
ion Of Congress their agitation for
"prOgressiven tariff revision. That
is precisely the sort Of tariff revision
Pennsylvania doet not want. The
people Of this State win have little
patience with. the effort of the La
Toilette school of statesmen to keep
alive tariff agitation. The Payne
law re-establishes the protective sys
tenn and 1t is restoring prosperity.
Every voter who believesfn It should
join in an ihdOrsenent Of the party
that enacted it. By electng the Re
publican ticket By an Impressive ma
jority Pennsylvania will emphasize
the fact thnt it demands the main
tenanee of the tariff policy, which
has made it the greatest industrial
State in the Union.

MUZZLE FOR MINORITY
j. d. Moore Says Building Code
Majority Should Hare Used 1t.

John D. Moore one Of the signers of the majority
report Of the Building Code Revision Commission.
said yesterday that if the majority had realized
that the minority would make such a fuss they
would have prevented them from making report.
I'VE would have taken vote on every provi-
sion,' he said. II supposed that our deliberations
were confidential until the minority began 10 issue
statements They have had a press agent and
have circulated reports which have entirely mis-
represented the code provisions in the majority re-
port"
Regarding the assertion that cndeT concrete
arches would be practically eliminated from build
ing construction If the majority report were adopt
ed, Mr.. Moore said that IT entirely untrue
The provisions he added. ARE the same as
they IN the present code Three materials FOR
hreproof floor arches mentioned-brick. hoilo"
tile and stone gravel concrete Such otheE IoriS
of freproofng as may pass the prescribed tests are
allowed. These tests are conducted at Colurhbla
University. to avoid the responsibility OF 4 oecl-
sion being placed on the Superintendent or Buhd-
ings. The only reason that cinder concrete Is not
mentioned is that it Is not marketable artlcle IN
the sense that brick and hollow tile are marketao'e
The latter definitely prescribed materlaIs anu
may be inspected readily at the building
"Once arch is accepted. it may be used attef-
ward without further examination. The RoeDhns
type Of cinde- concrete arch, for example, Is d
definite thing. and it takes its place with hoio"
tile and brick arches. What We wish 70 eudru
against is the worthless arch made Of cinders air
and refuse Too builders take the contents OF
ashcans and dump them into cement and water
without taking the trouble TO wash or screen 'lie
cinders Such concrete is to an extent conouStlDie
and therefore undesirab bile"
Theodore starrett a contractor, Of No 1o2 Park
avenue said that he believed the new code WOULD
be improvement over the old one The 1891 COM
mission. of which he q member, he said, Daseo
many OF it's provisions on the recommendations OF

said that he had noticed the same tendency in the
present commission. The underwriters. he SAID
had caused more improvements TO be made IN tle
building code than any other body Of men IN the
city.
In discussing the provisions for hreproof con-
structon in the proposed code, he said that t1ere
was absolutely no chance for the National Fire

The discussion about the Roebliug CONSTRUCTION

companies IN this city building concrete arches.
As TO the relative merits Of concrete and terra

place. Properly made, he said. cinder concrete
