Whose Candidate is Gwynnee

Salem, n. j., October 4, 1893.
William a.. SummcrW,
DEAR SIR.-It is easy for people 10
jump at conclusions upon very slender
premises and with due respect TO your
zeal and candor, l do think you are
making an unjustilfable attack upon
the junior Editor of the Sunbeam, by
suggesting that his prospective Senator
ial candidacy has been brought about
by a. track advocates. 1t was prob.
ably / who first urged his nomination
by the democratic party of Salem Coun-
ty, ! urged his nomination from the
fact l have known him from bOy.hood.
Our school days were spent together,
and later since we have both become
identified with public affairs in our
county, l have seen him much through
intercourse, and fldtter myself, know
him intimately.
This intimate acquaintance lead me
to urge his candidacy, because l know
him to be honest, capable, and pre-
emiently fitted in every way to credit
ably represent II county in the State
Senate. lie is allied to no faction, is
clean in his public and private life, and
no act of his can be pointed to of which
/ have ever heard that bears a faint. l
have written you this on the impulse
of the moment, without having seen OF
consulted with Mr.. Gwynne, but 1 am
certain if he can be induced to become
the democratic candidate, and be elect
ed, his course will be a source of pride
and admiration TO his constituents.
viii you kindly publish this letter. 1
am sir, Yours Very Truly,
J. W. ACTON.
We acknowledge it is easy to be mis-.
led and deceived by circumstantial evil
dence and have heard of men having
been hung on such testimony who were
innocent. We said the candidacy of
Mr.. Gwynne ''may be only a co.inci-
dencen and am glad it probably was
on Mr.. ActOn's part, notwithstanding
the evidence pointed the other way. The
people have been deceived so much that
they feel like telling Bro. Gwynne, who
is about to woo them what Priscilla
told John Alden in the "Courtship of
Miles Standish;" ''Speak for yourself
Bob"

SHORT STOPS.
What the People are Saying.

, The publication of the proposition oil
the WaterwOrkS company has thoroughly
aroused the people to the necessity of
putting an end TO this private monopoly
as soon as possible.
The financial OF the WatarworkS COM
pany was rapidly expiring: the people
had grown restless under the monopoly
and have ON several occasions, aud no.
Lably at the last city election, declared in
ff'or Of the city owning It's "aterworks.
Under the original and amended con-
tracts the city had the right of purchase
at the termination Of the contract; this
stipulation was valuable to the city and
rulnouS to the WaterwOrkS company.
The policy of the water works company
has been to increase the value of their
works so as to place 1t beyond the power
OF the city to purchase, but this plan has
been abandoned.
1t was very sharp trick to do away
with the old contract and thereby rob the
city OF the power to purchase But the
power is with the city.
The stock holders of the Watcrworks |
the life of their corporation Is limited. |
They have amasSed wealth, let them be |
satisfied to quit at an early date. and |
treat the city and people fairly.
The twenty-five years contract is
simply out of the question. II it is fact
that the city has no contract with the
WaterWOrkS company, and must beg in
over again. then let us DIT eide whether we
will own the works or turn the people
over to private corporation. III 1T Is to
be private concern give the world a
chance at us. and let us see what the
franchise is worth.
The franchise is the most valuable now
on the American market, let us see what
it will bring.
Mr. Gray. the eminent engineer, is rap,
id,v preparing plan of sewerage and
water works. the people will have the

No city on the continent has such
splendid supply of water, so easily .
utilized. and capable of being furnished (
at a minimum cost. Why should the peO- ,
ole throw away their most valuable
property?
If it will pay the Waterwerks company
.watered stock and all. to furnish the
city water. IL will pay the city to do so.
Let MS not tie our hands now that they
are free.
