Statement by the Governor

III ANNOUNCING lue appointment OF MT.
Glass, the governor said:
Il am still of opinion that the pro-
visions of the seventeenth amendment did
not deprive me of power to fill by ap-
pointment the vacancy in the Senate of
the United States caused by the death of
Hon. Joseph f. Johnston.
In the exercise, therefore, of my con-
stitutional power and duty | have this
day appointed Hon. Fl. p Glass of Bir-
mingham, United States senator from
Alabama to fill the unexrired term of
the late Senator Joseph f. Johnston
MIR. Glass has been for many years
one of the leading journalists of the state.
He has been bold and courageo in the
advocacy of every issue or cause that he
espoused,, and he is justly recognized as
one of the most brilliant editorial writer's
in Alabama, yet in the conduct of every
newspaper he has conducted he has been
guided by the highest ethics of his pro-
fession. Like every man who is bold and
aggressive he has made enemies, yet he
has never sought to win favors by ques-
tionable methods or by substituting abuse
and misrepresentation for logic or argu-
ment. lie has for long years rendered
valued services to the party. and while
he has never held public office no one
doubts, by reason of his long study of
economic and governmental questions-his
wide range of information, his ability to
represent creditably the state in the fed
eral Senate. He is in full accord and
sympathy with the wise and progressive
policies of the President of the United
States, whose personal friendship and con-
fidence he enjoys.
by reason of his long and valuable
services to the party in the state his
high character and recognized ability, l
believe he has justly earned this evidence
of confidence and esteem.
Il attach as part of this statement the
brief recently prepared by Hon r. b.
Evins, my legal advisor answering the
argument against my power to appoint,
and which in my judgment is convincing
and conclusive
II regret that in reaching conclusion
on the proper construction of the seven
teenth amendment have felt constrained
to follow the opinions of able and dis
tinguished lawyers rather than be guided
by the advice of certain gentlemeH OF
the press who have recently denied my
power to appoint, and whose views on IL
grave constitutional question may be
somewhat biased by partisan zeal"
