NEW, BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, TUESDAY, JUNE 13, 1916. LIBERTY is all silky Long Cut like Contains no loose, hard stems like LIBERTY comes only in long, silky shreds, be- gause only long, unbroken leaf is used in making it. That means LIBERTY . is a real long cut. ~And LIBERTY is ab- solutely free from loose, hard stems—they’re picked out by hand. »That means LIBERTY is real tobacco. LIBERTY packs right down igto your pipe for a cool, slow- burning smoke. Or rolls into a wad of juicy sweetness for a husky, lasting, man-size chew. , LIBERTY is made of full- bodied, full-flavored Kentucky tobacco. And the ageing we give this rich leaf —up to five years — puts a satisfying relish into LIBERTY that just suits hearty chewers and smokers from the ground up.

Mr. | Stone said he favored a constitutional | amendment that would incapacitate | justices of the federal supreme court | from becoming candidates for office | within five years after their service on | the bench. Mr. Stone asserted that the repub- lican platform promised chiefly either things already enacted by the demo- cratic congress or put into effect by executive order, or things now pend- ing in congress and well on the way | to enactment. The platform’s criti of President Wilson, he said, was a | “remarkable partisan fulmination.” The progressive platform, he contin- ued, was equally remarkable, in that, instead of proposing to do battle for issues, it made Colonel Roosevelt its platform, and now he declined to do battle for his followers. The secretary was particularly caus- rding Mr. Hughes. He said the republican nominee was “so reserved | | and exclusive” as to suggest that he had come from the north pole” with frost in his whiskers not yet by any | means dissolved.” He exonerated hirn, however, from all suspicion of having used his judicial office for political manoeuvring, by saying that some of decisions have been the subject sm The senator’s statement follows: The Republican Platform. “The regular republican platfori | adopted at Chicago is remarkable par- | tisan fulmination. It is without a prec- edent in party platforms. About one- already adequately provided €or by | laws enacted during the present ad- ministration, or have been already ac- complished by administrative action under the president’s immediate super- vision and direction. The greater and better part of the remainder of the things declared for at Chicago are now in process of being worked out and formulated into statutory enact- ments. ““I refer, of course, to such policies, rural credit bill, designed to aid the agricultural interests; the bills enlarg- ing the navy, to make it an adequate arm of first defense, for a ‘large in- | in aerial strength, and also defens also a bill to rehabilitate the merchant ma- rine, and so forth. All these meas- ures will be enacted into law during the present session of congress, unless republicans prevent action in the sen- action on some of these measures by that means during the last previous congress. “The Chicago platform is largely devoted to a rabid partisan criticism ot the president. This in- dictment, however, is general in terms, carefully avoiding particularly specifications. As a pleading it could be demurred out of a court as not stating a cause of action It merely vacillation, lack of courage and being unpatriotic and as un-American. around the president’s head and seek- ing to make of him a vicarious sacri- fice, the distinguished gentlemen who framed this wonderful document stultify themselves by practically in- dorsing all the things accomplished | and to be accomplished under the | Wilson administration; and in so far | as they venture to declare any aflir- | ive program of their own that of that hitherto followed and now | being followed by the president and democratic congres This plat- is indeed the most wonderful | production of its kind klown to our history. Discussed Justice Hughes. “As to the candidates, T have only to say that Judge Hughes is a gentle- man of good ability and good char- acter. He is so reserved and exclu- sive as to leave the impression that | he emanated from the North Pole and came to the temperate zone with frost in his whiskers which is not | vet by any means dissolved His | only public service prior to his ap- | pointment to the supreme court is | confined, first, to gas and insurance | frauds in the City of New York, which | brought him into such prominence | as to make him the republican can- | didate for governor. | “The politicians and the republi- | can organization of that state were inot for him, but, being then, as at Chicago hard-pressed for a candi- | date, they reluctantly nominated Mr. Hughes as a bright light in the werld of reform and heralded him for#a in that character. He served two terms as governor and became the cham- pion of various radical so-called re- form measures, a number of which he succeeded in forcing through a re- luctant legislature. Subsequently, President Tat appointed him to the supreme bench. “It was a matter of general com- ment at the time that this appoint- ! i \ Wilgons | | judicial position they hold. low that great tribunal will hecome more or less the subject of will G. 0.

As Justice of the supreme court he has deported himself with dignity and ability, al- though some of his decisions have been the subject of more or less pop- ular criticism. Iy objection to the nomination of . Hughes lies in the fact that I re- gard it as bad in every way, even vicious, for a great political party, hard pressed and on its uppers, in- vading the supreme court of the United States and taking down from that bench of its Justice to make of him a party candidate or a political office to meet and serve a party ex- | igency. The experiment is full of menace and danger. Hereafter it is more than probable that men ap- pointed to the supreme court will begin to regard it, not as the hon- | orable and final goal of their ambi- tions, but as a stepping stone to what they will, @ Hughes does, regard as a political advancement beyond the “In that view of things it will fol- that the decisions of Judges of suspicion surmise People begin to whether de- ons on questions of wide or general interest have behind them some sin- ister political design.

The Progressive Platform. “The platform adopted by the pro- gressive party is, if possible, even more remarkable than the republican. “It certainly does malke cooking easy”’ Complete Gas Range attached to the end of Coal Range. i | i CABINET | | GLENWOOD | ) ik } GLENWOOD Glenwoods are Brim Full of Good Things The Glenwood Balanced Baking Damper is far ahead of any other—it is as positive as the turning of a rail- road switch—open to start the fire, closed to bake— just this one damper for kindling or baking and best of all, it can’t warp or stick. The Glenwood Revolving Coal Grate is easy to shake at all times, and simply fine for remoying clinkers. It is triangular in shape, with three different sides for wear.

The clos declares, in substance, that the prin- ciples it sets forth are not new; that most men agree with them; that any man may well propose them. It de- clares that the progressives are tired of promises, of words and ‘the bitter taste of words retracted.’ “It declares that the great need of the hour is to ‘choose a man not alone by words, but by past deeds, The Glenwood Shelf Under Oven Door is not station- ary—it automatically raises and lowers as oven door is opened or closed.
