est have behind them some sinister political design. The tendency will be to undermine public confidence in that great court-a thing that would be full of evil consequences, if not dis astrous.
 Some State Constitutions, I am told, contain provisions which make the Judges of their Supreme Courts ineligible to a political office during the term for which they were elected or appointed. I am inclined to the opinion that it would be wise to so amend the Constitution of the United States as to make ajustice of the Supreme Court ineligible to any political office while a member of that court or for a period of five years following his retirement or sep aration therefrom.
 The Progressive Platform.
 ''The platform adopted by the Pro- gressfve party is, if possible, even more remarkable than the Republican The closing paragraph of that DOT tion declares, in substance, that the principles it, sets forth are not knew; that most men agree with them; that man may well propose them. It de- clares that the Progressives are tired of promises, of words and the bitter taste of wards retracted.
 "It declares that the great need of the hour is to choose a man who,
 
 gives a guarantee that he can and will make his words and promises good.'' Therefore, the platform sends forth this bJ gle blast: The issue is one of men,. The issue or issues are not to be based on great differences about principles and policies of Govern ment, but the whole struggle for supremacy is to gather about a, man; i; and Roosevelt was the man in mind.
 ''I will not now comment upon this remarkable declaration; I am content merely to call sharp attention to it. Four years ago this same man called his countrymen to rally around the by hundreds of thousands, singing, Tramp, Tramp, Tramp, the Boys are Marching" This year this same rallying host, instinct with the spirit of ''Americanisn, have called for this same man to come forth and lea d them again. But he sulks in his tent at Oyster Bay, while his loyal follow ing waits uncertain and dispirited. Will he lresI ond and lead them, sing ing, "Onwar I. Christian Soldier or will he shrink before the uplifted swords of the Old Guard and thus leave his ready and sta1wart adher- ents victims of one of the most pitt full and tragic betraya1s ever recorded d in American history.

 Hartley Davis. who has recently been making a study of economic con- ditions here described the need for housing, demanded the casting aside of isolated residents,'' men who kept to themselves with lack of sympathy for others.

F. H. Nicholson Will Devote Whole Time to Investigat-
 ing Automatic Devices.

The New Haven railroad, to better handle it's investigation of automat- ic train control, has appointed F. H. Nicholson assistant engineer and MT. Nicholson will devote his whole time to this important subject. The appointment is to come under the Jurisdiction of Signal engineer Nor rison's office,
 It is the intention of the New Ha- ven management to conduct further experiments and tests on it's own lines: to make thorough investiga- ton of trial installations on other roads. and to continue the exanina- tion of train control devices to it's attention by inventors and others. The investi gation will be directed in an effort to determine the degree of practicability of each scheme mea- sured by conditions on the New Ha- ney road.
 During the past four years the New Haven has thoroughly examined a large number of plans or auto matic stops. and has convinced Its that automatic train control has not reached a degree of development that. would eliminate introduction of other and greater hazards, and war rant either universal or limited adoption by the New Haven. It is recognized however, that a great deal of persistent and intel Hgent effort is being directed to the solution of the problem involved. in the automatic control of trains, and the appointment of MT. Nicholson to follow this work is in line with the purpose of the management to keep itself thoroughly and promptly informed of progress in the develop Inerit of automatic train control
