out of Nassau county politics forever, I meant every word of that statement without mental quallflcatlon or reser¬ vation, and I still mean every word of It. I am not backing or belping in any way any candidate, either for the postmastership or for election to the county committee. In as much as State Committeeman Gardner is re¬ sponsible for the political results ob¬ tained by the Democratic party In Nassau county, I assume that whoever Is recommended by him will be en¬ dorsed by Congressman Brown and appointed. I bave not sought to in¬ fluence either of them in regard to this appolntmentor any other appolnt-
Speaklng of the task that con- trontetf the Legislature of 1916, Speaker Sweet said: "The neglect to gira attention to the legitimate buai¬ neas of the state, the failure to pro¬ vide appropriations absolutely requir¬ ed, while incurring tremendous flnancial obligations, had driven the state almost to the verge of bank¬ ruptcy." The Legislature of 1915 was strongly Republican in botb branches and, before it finished its labors, the muddle in which four years of Demo- oratic administration had left the state's finances was cleaned up. It required courage and hard work. The Legislature of 1916 has an equally hard task before It. The new con¬ stitution reconstructs the entire fabric ot state government and new statutory laws must be enacted to make the constitutional provisions operative. Tha^ will be the work of the coming session of the Legislature. The Importance of this work makes Imperative the election of a Republi¬ can majority in the Assembly if the work of restoring honest, orderly and efficient government begun this year Is to go forward to completion.
WAR SAVING FACTOR.
In the thirteen months ending Au- svst 31, 1915, the exports from this country were >606,711,288 greater than for tbe preceding thirteen months, while tbe Imports were 1256,010,879 leas. As a result of the Buropean war our exports to Eng land have Increased 1173,685,372; to France, 1181,553, 931; to Russia, 114,294,580; to'Italy, $49,649,062; to Scotland, 114,448,995, and to Ire¬ land. 16,033,024. While exports t^o Germany and Austria-Hungry have decreased, exports to Sweden, Nor¬ way, Denmark and The Netherlands, countries thiV>ugh which Germany has received supplies, have increased enough to nearly offset the decrease. In the face of these flgures, to state that the European war bas hurt busl- aass in this country Is to state an ab¬ surdity. The trouble with business in tbis country is not due to the war wbiclr Is decidedly a saving factor.
For the eleven months ending Au¬ gust 31, the State's receipts from direct taxes were 17,006,479.21 less tban they were for the corresponding eleven months of 1914. Eacb suc¬ ceeding month shows the absolute ne¬ cessity for tbe direct state tax which Oovernor Qlynn vetoed last year.
The votera can thank tbe Repub¬ lican Legislature for removing from the election law the provision which designated a voter's residence as "any plaoe of stay" which put a premium on colonization and was particularly desired by Tammany Hall.

GOMHUMIGATIONS
Editor The Uassau Post,
Freeport, N. Y.
Sir.—It having come to my atten tion, both from articles in the news-
gresslve Committee in supporting Ste plien J. Cailaghan as Supreme Court Judge. Before tiling the petitions of designation, our County Committee met and after a thorough investiga¬ tion of the (luallflcations of Judge ^ I Cailaghan, unanimously signed his QI petition for Supreme Court Judge. Therefore, the articles appearing In the newspapers, and certain circular letters sent out from Brooklyn, stat¬ ing that Judge Cailaghan was put upon the Progressive ticket through a misunderstanding, are absolutely false as far as Nassau County is con¬ cerned.
The reason weare supporting Judge Cailaghan are these; judge Cailaghan has all the qualifications for a Su¬ preme Court Justice, has had consid¬ erable judicial experience, and has shown Independence and proper ju¬ dicial poise during his rareer as jue¬ tice, both in the Municipal Court and in the Supreme Court. On the other hand, neither of his opponents have had any experience In this line, al¬ though nothing can be said against them individually.
I shall vote for Judge Cailaghan and shall do all in my power to urge my fellow Progressives between now and primary Day to unite on him as our candidate. I shall vote for him on Election Day, and shall get all the friends I can to do likewise.
I hope this letter wlll clearly in¬ dicate to those people who are trying to defeat Judge Cailaghan for nom¬ ination on the Progressive ticket.

GEORGE BENNETT SMITH, East Merrick Road, Freeport, L. I.
This is that new $885 Studebaker! The new car that has been so much talked of as the best car that Studebaker ever built. And if thie picture that we show here ever began to do justice to the car itself, it would be more than enough merely to say: '$885 buys THAT car,"
But no picture can ever adequately illustrate the car's lines, let alone its quality. And so we are forced to fall back on the old, time-worn "see it with your own eyes." However, "seeing it" will be surpris¬ ing, we know. For
It has GREATLY INCR!EASED POWER!
The new motor, enlarged to 3% inchen in bore and dUpluyirif^ notal>l<' ii,()'"<ivpnient i.i oeMlf,r, develop? 40-15 lujrM'.pow»T. Mor>- POWRII for Ihat unexpected twist In the hlU, for the tjuick Ks'taway In city trHfllc, for steady mili'-eatlnff speed on the opon road.
It has INCREASED CAPACITY AND COMFORT!
The bodies of the new cars are larner than ever. lonK'r and roomier ev¬ erywhere. Doors open wider. Cushions are deeper and softer and built up on iongrer coll springs—wider, too. Driver's seat Is divided. And In the tonneau arc two extra seats that fold down Into recesses in the floor, coinpret<-ly disappearing when not In use, by means of which thi' car can speedily be made Into a most commodious T-passenK'^r car.
It giret HIGHER QUALITY!
Difflcult you will admit, romemberins? that Studebakers hav»- always been <^iuallty cars—hut none the less true. This new %SS6 Studobaker In spite of the reduction In Its price le far better than any car even Studebaker ever built before. The upholater y Is the flnest grade of genuine, hand-
bulTcd straiKlit grained leather on tli<- mark«t Shafts, g.-nrs. sti'orinit knuckles and all the vital parts of the car arr- of b<-tter stiilo than over Higher standards of accuracy In manufacturing. lnsp<ctloti and flnish have been introduced. '
And yet you PAY LESS!
.\nd here It Is worhty of mention that thla year's prices on .Studebaker oars are nut the result of our building smaller, lower priced cars to sell purely on a price basis, but they are the result of our resources and r.-icllltles that few manufacturer.-i ran rival, the result of i years' study of Just two rhas.ses and the great manufacturing ecf>nomleH of concen¬ trating on but two designs.
That is the sum and substance of what is to be said for this new Forty H. P. Studebaker. It is not only the best car that Studebaker ever built—^but one of the greatest values any maker ever offered at any price. It gives more for each dollar of its price than ever before. And any man who intends to buy a car at any price, will make a grave mistake if he fails to see this new car that represents the best efforts and the price-economieg of one of the world's largest pro¬ ducers of motor cars.
