Y., Aug. 14— Telephone and telegraph lines buzzed | vesterday with “rush” messages for | Edgar T. Brackett following the re- | port In a New York that | Mr. Brackett would support Seabury for the governorship as | against Governor Whitman. Senator | Brackett lost no time in making his position clear. He denied that he | would support Judge Seabury by say- | ing such a step would not be neces- sar ‘T shall not decide the question of support of Governor Whitman or | Judge Seabury until it arises, and it | is not likely to arise, for Mr. Whit- | man will hardly be renominated,” | said Mr. Brackett. “To name him | would simply be making a present of | the state government to the demo- | crats for the next two years. He | may continue his wobblings that he can defeat Judge Seabury, but in do- | ing so he is about as near the truth as when, a week before election last | fall, he cheeped out the prediction that the constitution was going to be | adopted by a large majority. Within ten davs it was defeated by half a million votes Judge Seabury will defeat the governor by about the same majority if he is named. “Do not think that any question of | party regularity will elect Mr. Whit- man. He has absolved every repub- lican from such duty. “Almost his first official act was to name a democrat to the great office | of highway commissioner, and his whole course has been an attempt to build up a little personal machine to further his political fortunes, irre- spective of his party’s good. “The voters will have none of him. “It may as well be recognized that in naming Judge Seabury the demo- | crats have selected a splendid equipped | candidate, one of the great men. of the state, and any attempt to defeat | him by any man of the calibre of Mr. Whitman will only excite derision and invite sure defeat.” Senator Brackett’s enmity Governor Whitman is well hereabouts, but the report would openly support a democrat caused a sensation Mr. Brackett was one of a group of influential republi- cans who dropped a bomb into the Whitman camp by calling for an in- quiry into the “booze” bills contract- ed by officials of the governor's party to the Panama-Pacific exposition Governor Whitman earned Brackett's enmity when he with Senator George H.

This fight now centers around Senator Whitney's endeavors to be renominated He is opposed by Frederick W. Kz ord, who was ackett forces. Senator Brackett recently ed his sixty-third birthday anniver- sary and intended to retire. His po- litical machinery was attacked, and now he is putting up the most active and sensational political battle seen in northern New York in two decades.

To declare his foreign policy futile is idle, it says. "he conclusive answer is contained | in the bitter protests of the radical | faction In Germany that the German submarines ‘have been caught in a net of notes.’ The outstanding fact is that Mr. Wilson, without bringing the Unit- ed States into war, has forced a ognition of neutral rights,” the torial continues. “With relation to Mexico, son has grs ciple that | racy amous has reviewed rec- edi- Mr. Wil- sped the underlying prin- we shall not have a per- manently peaceful neighbor to the gouth of us until the most patent wrongs under which the masses of the Mexican people have suffered are righted through their own efforts, AT Saturday THE GOLF LINKS, afternoon’s play at the | Maple Hill Golf grounds was featured with a medal play handicap, each play- club.

To hold “its place in the sun,” 1is the object of every business in the great fight for industrial and commercial supremacy. To be able to hold ‘its place in the sun,”’ is the supreme test of -an asphalt roof. It is the sun, not rain or snow, that plays havoc with a roof. If it can resist the drying out process of the sun beating down upon it, day after day, the rain or snow will not affect it except to wash it clean and keep it sanitary. Certain-teed Roofing takes “‘its place in the sun’ and holds it longer than other similar roofing, because it is made of the very best quality roofing felt, thoroughly saturated with the correct blend of soft asphalts, and coated with a blend of harder asphalts. Thig outer coating keeps the inner saturation soft, and prevents the drying out process so destructive to the ordinary roof. The blend of asphelts used by “The General” is the result of long experience. It produces a roofing more pliable than those which have less saturation, and which are, therefore, harder and drier. At each of the General’s big mills, expert chemists are constandy' emyloyed to refine, test and blend the asphalts used; also to experiment for possible improve- ments. Their constant endeavor is to make the best roofing still better. The quality of CERTAIN-TEED is such that it is guaranteed for 5, IQ or 15 years, according to thickness (1, 2 or 3 ply). Experience proves that it lasts longer. Behind this guarantee is the responsibility of the world’s largest manu- facturer of roofings and building papers. Look for this guar- antee, which is your rotection against inferior quality roll roofing. It is placed on every roll of CERTAIN-TEED The General makes one third of Ameri- ca’s supply of as- phalt roll roofing. His facilities are un- equaled, and he is able to produce the highest quality roof- ing at the lowest manufacturing cost, CERTAIN-TEED is made in rolls; also in slate covered shingles. There is a type of CERTAIN- TEED for every kind of building,with flat or pitched roofs, from the largest sky- scraper down to the smallest residenee or out-building. CERTAIN-TEED is sold by responsible dealers all over the world, at reasonable prices. Inwestigate it before you decide on any type of soof.
