Barnes. "Mr. Collin," continued Mr. Fas-sett, "I have known all my life. He is a graduate of Yale, a former law professor of Cornell, an accomplished jurist, a man of high tone and one of the best qualified men for the position It has ever been my pleasure to know.

I think his nomination and election would be an honor to the party and to the State.

GOES TO SYRACUSE. Alexander MacBain. who has teen with the Commercial Envelope and Box Company for the last zo years, has severed his connection with the above firm to accept a position with laree Svracuse box concern.

Mr. MacBain left for that city last week to take up his new duties at once. ft In favor of the substitute plank proposed by Speaker Wadsworth. Some of the members of the committee expressed surprise today at Mr. Prentice's selection by the Progressive leaders because of this fact.

In a brief speech accepting the chairmanship, Mr. Prentice, however, declared his determination to uphold and support every plank In the platform. "I am a little overwhelmed by the honor that you have done me," ha said, "and I want to express in a moat heartfelt way my thanks and my appreciation for the confidence that you have reposed in me by electing me chairman of this committee. "I can only say that I am not afraid of hard work and I intend to turn in and do all the work I can between now and then for the State ticket, "You all know that I have not agreed with every plank that was proposed to be put In the platform, but the Republican convention adopted that platform by a substantial majority and I shall uphold and support every plank in it. I think the party in good faith can do nothing else.

"Our success depends not bo much upon what I can do, but upon the help that each of you give to me, I hope and expect from each one of you tne support wnicn vm enaoie me to make my administration a success, and enable us to elect the ticket we have nominated, on election day, as I firmlv believe we will. In Dlacmir Mr. Prentice in nomina tion, Mr. Griscom said he had been' a worker In the Republican ranks in this city for many years. He began as an election district captain and had risen steadily in the estimation of his colleagues until he had won their re snect and admiration.

"He has a thorough knowledge of the affairs of the State," concluded Mr. Oriscom, "and is a man of the highest integrity and greatest ability." Chairman Woodruff, although present, did not preside at today's meeting, which was called to order by Lafayette B. Gleason, secretary of the committee, at the Republican Club. Mr. Gleason was made temporary chairman and later was re-elected secretary of the committee.

Mr. Prentice will appoint a treasurer later. Charles W. Anderson of New York was re-elected as member-at-large. A committee appointed by United States Elihu Root, who was permanent chairman of the Saratoga convention, met today following the meeting of the State Committee, and endorsed Frederick Collin of Elmira, who was nominated by the Democratic State convention as Associate Justice of the Court of Appeals.

The committee was named and Mr. Collins' nomination endorsed after William, Barnes, had voiced his opposition to the proposed nomination at the State committee meeting. Rising to a question of personal privilege, Mr. Barnes said: "It has been customary for a long time for the State committee to fill all vacancies on the ticket, when any nominations were to be made. In the wisdom of the State committee it determined that the permanent chairman should select a committee of one from each judicial district to make the nomination to the Court of Ap peals which was not made by the convention.

"That action was without precedent. Why it was done I don't know. "I had supposed, in fact, having forgotten that such a committee had been appointed by the permanent chairman, that aetlon on candidates for Judge of the Court of Appeals would come before the committee, and therefore I wish, simply as a matter of privilege, to state that It has not been the custom, whenever nominations have been made by both parties, that a selection should be made entirely from the ranks of lawyers. But such combination between the two political parties is only defensible on the ground that It was to put upon the bench men who have already served and who have shown their capacity, integrity and legal ability as judges. "If the Republican party In the State puts Itself In the position of making no nomination for Judge of the 'Court of Appeals so that the Democratic convention has now in itself the right, apparently, to nominate a man not on the bench at all, Mr, Collin of Elmira, a gentleman, who, I understand, is a lawyer of ability, but who, nevertheless.

Is the law partner of Mr. John B. Stanchfleld, I do not believe it would be well for the tunity to put him on the ticket." The committee which decided to endorse Mr. Collin's nomination In eluded the following: General Stewart L. Woodford, New York; Borough President George Cromwell of Richmond: Philip j-jit ing, Kingston: Assemblyman Edward Merntt, potsdamj Ray smitn, Clerk of the Assembly, Syracuse: George W.
