REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES

ALL QUALIFIED FOR OFFICE

Men on the Several Tickets Chosen For their Energy, Integrity and Experience - Two Justices Will Be Elected in This Judicial District.
 

Next Tuesday from six a.m. to six p.m. the Republican electorate of this section will have an opportunity to go to the polls and cast their ballots for a splendid group of eminent candidates on county, assembly, district and town tickets, as well as to aid in the election of a judge of the Court of Appeals and two Justices of the Supreme Court.

The Republicans, in choosing candidates on the several tickets, selected men of energy, integrity, and experience. That they all are well qualified for the offices which they seek is known to every man and woman in this community. 

Judge William S. Andrews seeks the office of Judge of the Court of Appeals. He now occupies the bench by appointment. Ellis J. Staley and Joseph Rosch are candidates for the Supreme Court bench. The former is a life long resident of Albany county and one of whom residents of the county are proud. He is a lawyer of attainment, having occupied several important positions. For several years he was chairman of the Albany County Republican Committee, later becoming Surrogate. He is now Conservation Commissioner. Judge Rosch, whose home is in Liberty, is also a candidate for the Supreme Court bench. As this is the third judicial district, they will elect two justices this fall. 

Electors should remember that in order to vote the entire Republican ticket they should vote for two Justices of the Supreme Court.

The assembly district candidates nominated by the Republican party at the primary include Edgar C. Campbell for the first assembly district and James M. Gaffers for the third assembly district. Both Mr. Campbell and Mr. Gaffers are candidates for re-election. Both have served with great credit, having been members of important committees and having introduced important measures.

That their constituents hold them in high regard is shown by the  many messages of congratulation and letters promising support at the polls next Tuesday. Mr. Campbell’s district includes several wards in the city of Albany and the towns of Bethlehem., Coeymans, Rensselaerville, and Westerlo. Mr. Gaffers’ district includes the cities of Watervliet and Cohoes and the towns of Berne, Colonie, Knox.

A CORRECTION

Editor of the Enterprise:

Through an unfortunate error of the typesetter or proof-reader, the second paragraph of my letter on Rural Schools attributes to the editor fo the Knickerbocker-Press, a statement, which is entirely my own and omits the quotation which was submitted in the original text.

The printed paragraph in the Enterprise reads:

“The Knickerbocker-Press says editorially: ‘Rural residents are sufficiently intelligent to shift a third of the burden of their school taxation on the cities, and a study of the country birth rate would indicate that rural resident parents are not sufficiently numerous to consolidate their own schools.’”

The paragraph as written reads: The Knickerbocker-Press says editorially: “Rural residents are sufficiently intelligent to take care of the consolidation of their own schools.” (My comment which should not have been included in quotation marks followed.)” It is generally conceded that rural residents are sufficiently intelligent to shift a third of the burden of their school taxation on the cities and a study of the country bith rate would indicate that rural resident-arents are not sufficiently numerous to consolidate their own schools.

Please give this correction space in your next issue.
