VNiAN NJ. LEWIS.
IIIE SUPERIOR PLATFORM.

We heartily endorse the policy in
augurated by the Republican party of
using all revenue from automobile
licenses for the repair and mainten-
ance of our splendid system of i'm
proved roads, and we advocate such
legislation with respect to automo-
biles as shall be just, alike to the au-
tomobillsts and to the taxpayers of
the state, and, also, properly promo tie
the reciprocal relations between this
and other states with respect to the
use of their respective highways by
nonresident automobilists.
We favor the wise and beneficial de-
state, and to that end we pledge our
selves to the continuance of the policy
of the construction and maintenance
of our public highways and inland
waterways, and we approve the policy
of federal aid in the Improvement of
our adjacent Interstate waters.
Fifteen years ago the Republicans
of this state, appalled, by the wide
spread corruption under Democratic
administration, placed the Republican
party in control, and have continued
it in power since that time. The re-
suits have been greatly to the advan-
tage of the state, in administrative
and legislative accomplishment, and
demonstrates tho wisdom of further
continuance of Republican power and
responsibility.
The Lambertville record. [volume] (Lambertville, N.J.) 1872-1968, 1910-09-23

the principles which govern that poll
cy for the administration of the ma
ton should apply to the state.
We believe in the principle that an
industry ought to bear the cost of per-
sonal injuries sustained in the bust
ness. A Republican legislature and
governor placed the first employers
liability law on the statute books of
New Je sey, and they have also pro-
vided for additional legislation on
this subject by the creation of an ac-
tive and efficient commission, to re-
port by bill at the next session of the
legislature.
We believe in the enactment of a
civil service law, that shall provide
for the permanent employment OF
officials so long as they discharge the
duties of their positions in credit
able manner, to the satisfaction of
their immediate superiors in Office.
We favor such election and primary
laws as will make the decision of the
people at the elections and primaries
easy of expression and sure of execu-
ton, and that the election machinery
created shall be such that at the prim-
aries all contesting candidates shall
be represented fairly and Impartially
and that by enrolment or otherwise
the primaries Of each party shall be
conf ned to the membership thereof.
We favor the election of all delegates
to conventions under the primary
laws of the state.

The Lambertville record. [volume] (Lambertville, N.J.) 1872-1968, 1910-09-23

The Republican party, in conven-
ton assembled, heartily approves the
administration of William Fl. Taft and
we affirm our loyalty to the president,
who has brought to the discharge Of
the duties of his great Office the high
est ability and loftiest patriotism.
We commend to the people of this
state the results of the labors of the
congress just adjourned, which has
passed more measures which contrib
ute to the benefit and development
of the country than any other con-
gress since the organization of the
republic.
We especially commend the tariff.
The tariff question involves three
great principles-the development OF
American industries and the protec-
ton of American labor; revenue to
provide for the expenses of the gov
eminent, and the making of the
United States Independent as against
the world for the provision of every
thing that enters into the question of
national defense. The tariff law of
the last congress provides for all these
in ample way, and, as one of the I'M
mediate results. it has changed a de-
felt of $58, O0O,OO into a surplus of
$2S, 900, 900.
We endorse the action of President
Taft and a Republican congress IN
providing an expert and impartial

Senator Briggs to Run
Campaign.
Relieved He Will Be the Choice OF
Vivian M. Lewis.
STOKES LEADS for SENATE

1t is limited here that United States
Senator Frank o. Briggs will succeed
former Governor Franklin Murphy as
chairman of the Republican state COM
mittee to run the campaign for Candi-
date Vivian M. Lewis. The party al
WAYS recognized the right of the can
didate to select whomsoever he choos-
es to manage his campaign. 1t was
on that plan that Senator Briggs retir-
ed as head of the state committee to
let Governor Murphy run the CAM
paien for John Franklin Fort.
The reasons for the selection of Sena-
tor Briggs are said to be because he al
WAYS insisted on the nomination OF
Lewis as the correct type of man to
run for governor, and because he bet
ter represents the temper of the whole
people as to men and measures. Moth
ing can be gotten officially, but it is
believed that Briggs will be the next
chairman.
The only matter of politics OF the
day is the announcement that both
Democratic Nominee Woodrow Will
son and Republican Nominee Vivian
M. Lewis will visit the Interstate
fair which opens in Trenton nexl
week. They will attend on "Big
Thursday which for many years has
been "Politicians' Day. at the mon
ster annual exhibition.
The figures on the choice OF the peo-
nile for United States senator have not
as vet been officially received by the
secretary of state. They show as far
as telephoned in, that former Govern
or Stokes is 1927 votes ahead of Congress
man Charles N. Fowler, and that
Fowler has plurality of 1852 over
former Governor Murphy.
The Local Optionists have ordered q
meeting to see what they will do this
campaign.
