Statement by HON. WILBUR F. STONE
Chairman Of Judiciary Committee of
the Convention Which Framed the
Colorado Constitution in 1876.

The Non.Partisan Judiciary Party is
founded to remove the courts from po-
litical strife, and to restore the conf
dence OF the people in the administra-
ton OF justice. 1t is not political. A
Democrat Republican or Progressive
can vote for John r Dixon, the Non
Partisan candidate for Justice OF the
Supreme Court, without lmpairing his
or her political standing.
The judiciary is the keystone OF the
social fabric. Upon 1t rests the per
sonal safety Of the citizen and the Sc
curity OF his civil and property rights.
Its efficiency for the purposes for which
it exists depends upon the judges-not
only upon their learning and ability,
but upon their courage, integrity and
independence.
The most dangerous condition that
exists with us is the feeling OF disre.
spect Tor the courts. Nothing has done
more to cause the people to lose con
tidence in their institutions, IN their
laws and in themselves
In no party can any candidate re-
ceive the nomination, whatever his
virtues, his learning or his ability unless
he be regarded as SAFE,-that is, un.
less it is believed that he will in the
discharge OF his official duties reflect
the views OF those who are responsible
for his nomination. There can be no
greater peril to free people than this
condition, and the only remedy is an
absolutely independent non partisan
judiciary. The Constitution should be
amended 30 AZ to require the election Of
all judges to be held at time other
than that for the election Of other Off.
GERS, and nominations by political par,
ties should not be permitted. We hope
To see such an amendment submitted at
the general election uf 1914.

THE TARIFF

The tariff question is simply
this: Shall the big interests con-
tinue to determine the schedules
or shall the people be consulted?
The talk about free trade is simply
to blind the unthoughtful. So
long as is requires 81 900, 100000
year to run the government there
cannot be any material reduction
of the tariff. The only issue is
whether or not the protected in
dustries shall share in the burdens
of taxation in such way as to
foster monopolies or whether the
interests of the people shall be
conserved.
There are no longer any infant
industries in this country that
need to be fostered at the expense
of the great consuming public.
