strength Of the party IN the coming cam
paign. His legal and legislative training
nc him especially well for the duties
Of his Office, and his good Judgment, his
strength as a man in the prime Of life
and Bis study Of state problems are all
valuable assets 20 the Republican party
at this time. We shall expect that Mr.
Stacks vigorous work in the campaign
from now on will make itself felt IN
rolling up a good vote NJ the September
election.
An aid to the candidates win be the
progressive platform the party has
adopted The committee wisely decided
to drop the plank relating to q public
health department. The committee
found that the people as a whole were
not ready TO commit themselves to a
primary law, 80 that plank was made
less definite and the plank on labor was
somewhat strengthened Taken as a
whole, the platform represents all the
progress the whole people are ready e
stand for and in no instance has It de-
elared for anything inimical to the pub
lies welfare. The changes made show
that the party had seriously considered
what It was pledgng itself to do and
that the pledges are made in good faith.
Standing for these principles and with
its long record Of efficiency the Repub.
liean party certainly deserves a great
victory IN September. Johnshury
