NEWARK. Oct. l. lssS.-The Democrats
OF Essex are much pleased with the nomi-.
nation Of Elvin w. Crane for Governor,
and are confident that they can give him
such majority as will land him in the
Gnberna torial chair, and once more re-
store thf State to beneficial Democratic
rule They are also very proud of the
record Mr.. Crane has made while in the
Prosecutors Office When a young man,
Mr.. Crane entered the Office of Bradley
and AbeeI, where he studied law and,
while still quite young he was admitted
Bradley was made a United States Su-
prenae Court Judge and Mr.. Abeel was
appointed Prosecutor for Essex county
During the greater part of the latter's
term of office Mr.. Crane acted as his as
sistant, and he continued to serve in the
same capacity under Prosecutor Keen
The training received under Messrs
Abeel and Keen proved valuable to him
when, shortly after his term as Assem-
b1yman expired, Mr.. Crane was appointed
Prosecutor for this county by Governor
Green. In 1894 he was reappointed for an
other five years by Governor Werts. Dur
ing his incumbency in this important Of
lie, admired by lawyers and dreaded by
criminals. In his unostentatious manner
he has conducted his office with high
sense of justice to all. Many an innocent
man. unfortunate enough to be mixed up
IN some trouble, owes his liberty to Prose
cutor Crane. The same feeling makes
him relentless in cases of hardened often
ders, and well they know It, particularly
the class known as wife-beaters.
Mr.. Crane is frequently called upon to
advise the Grand Jury on the law gov
erning the various cases and then he also
has people visiting him from all parts of
the county to make various complaints.
He treats all with courtesy, and directs
them to the proper officials, so that their
troubles may be speedily ended. Two de-
tectives, Nilliam F. Nclk and John
Casale, are assigned for duty under Mr..
Cranes directions and they are generally
kept busy. They hunt up missing witt
nesses and do a lot of hrst-class detective
work which enables the Prosecutor in
many cases to present strong case. Mr..

Annie Kmetz which she was asleep. His
counsel tried hard to save their clieft
from the gallows, but they were met at
every point of vantage by the wide
awake Prosecutor, who secured the pris-
oner's conviction. Malinak was hanged
One of the greatest legal battles ever
fought in this county was that which
ended in the conviction Of Henry Kohl
who was charged with the murder OF his
cousin His trial lasted the greater part
of two weeks. The defence tried to
prove an abb and to show that the al
legged victim, Joseph Preinel, had really
committed suicide. Ii was said by law
yers that never was criminal case bes-
ter prepared than Mr.. Cranes, and never
was "a more skillfully presented. The
Prosecutor. with two lawyers opposing
him. displayed his usual skill in the cross
examination of the witnesses and lie hac
plenty of them to listen to. Seven hours
and half was the time he took TO sum
up tllG case AQi tliC toe<ANS pAASie Atf~ -
dence was all in. 1t was great speech.
Nothing was missed; nothing was slight
ed. It was then that those in the court
room marveled at the wonderful memory
of the Prosecutor Almost hundred
witnesses had testified on both sides, and
yet he referred in detail to their testi-'
nony without referring to notes or the
stenographers copy of evidence, ex-
cept to prove that he was right
when the defendants counsel said he was
wrong in quoting something. The speech
was at once eloquent and logical. The
was out several hours and then his coun-
sci began the task of fighting for delay
in the various courts The Federal Courts
upheld the Prosecutors contentious for
a long time, until the Court Of Errors and
Appeals decided, on technical point,
that Kohl was entitled to a new trial
But two of the principal witnesses being
then unavailable, one having died and

we are filed with somewhat

We are filled with somewhat
dismal forebodings with regard
to our annexation of the Philip
pines, for 1t seems that annexa-
ton means either the establish
ment of q bureaucracy or the
erection of an alien oligarchy and
under the rule of either the des-
poilment of the people to our
lasting disgrace, to the degrade
ton Of the rulers and the infinite
injury and loss of our people
though all the while that we may
be suffering loss from lassitude
bred of revelling in unearned
gains we may delude ourself into
the belief that we are growing
richer through preying upon our
fellow men, something that is
for a nation, that leads to decay,
not to upbuilding.
If we had TO consult our own
material welfare only, we should
throw over the Philippines, dis.
miss them from the range of our
thoughts. But as by the fate of
war we have been instrumental
in freeing the people Of the Phil
ippines from Spanish thralldom,
as at the present time they are
in certain sense our wards, as
we have been placed in posi-
ton where the duty falls upon
us of protecting them from OPP
preston, we cannot, with clear
conscience, abandon them to
Spanish tyranny, hand them
over to the Spanish to wreak
vengence upon them as rebels,
but we must take the Philippine
es and having taken them we
should for our own good, as well
as that of the islanders, encour-
age them to rule themselves after
the manner that they judge will
rebound to their benefit and take
our hands off, save so far as to
insure them exemption from ag-
gressions at the hands of for.
eign powers.
But it is only too evident that
President Mckinley is set on the
reverse of this policy, is set on
annexing the Philippines. But
suppose the Filipinos object, sup
pose they refuse to become par
ties to annexation, suppose they
affirm their independence with
their lives ? Are we going to
send American troops and shed
American blood to force an I'M
willing people to become part Of
the United States, to subjugate q
people fighting for their liberties?
