Why Vote for Brucker !?

From the st. Johns Republican
Is there republican in Clinton
county who would restore the Wilson
bill, or similar free trade measure
If so good way to do it is to vote fol-
Ferdinand Brucker for congress.
If you want to to make less work and
less wages for work, put democratic
congress in power.
If you want to reduce the value of
farm products, there is no way in which
it can be done so quickly and thorough
ly as to elect men like Brucker to con-
gress.
This country tried that experiment in
1892, and every intelligent man knows
it was disastrous. Is there any sane
man who wants to go through the con-
ditions that existed while the Wilson
bill was in force?
Brucker is also champion of the 16
to silver idiocy, which if put into law
would do twice as much damage to the
country as the Wilson bill. That alone
ought to prevent any republican from
casting his vote for him.
Brucker claims to be friend of the
soldiers of the civil war. He is friend
of the soldier for votes only, and can do
no more, or as much for them as re-
publican member of congress.
Not only should every republican
vote against Brucker, but every other
man who believes in protective tar
if, who wants the greatest good to our
farmers, laborers and manufacturers,
and who wants the greatest degree of
prosperity for all our people vote
against Ferdinand Brucker.
The Republican has no unkind words
for Mr.. Brucker personally, but he rep
resents views and would vote for meas
ures which would injure the value of
every mans labor. A vote for Bruck-
er will be vote against prosperity.

Fred Edwards is gaining ground daily III
the very fields where the combination party
people expected to iDjure him by exaggerat-
ing and classifying about his personal habits
and methods. The fact that his opponents
were not telling the truth about him has
settled the question of their votes, and Mr..
Edwards will receive so large proportion
of them that the method used will be rel
egated to the rear. Being unable to COM
bat the fact that the republican candidate is
qualified, while the other is absolutely with
out experience-being unable to say that
their candidate was old enough or had any
training for such place, some other meth
DDS had to be used, but they are availing
nothing and even some of the most promi-
nent silver men say that 1t was mistake to
nominate the young soldier at this time.

Monroe l.. ScOugale is one of the few
men who makes no enemies and who has
straight republican record. These entitle
him to the respect of the people, to the sup.
port of every republican and to a continu-
ance of the position as sheriff in recognition
of a clean and economical administration of
the affairs of his office.

Representative Splitter. "--Shiawasse Re-
porter. The TIMES desires every republi-
can in the county to carefully consider the
above statement from the organ of the
silver party. No republican can afford to
take any chances by voting against Chas.
B. ColliDgwood or Geo. T. Mason, both of
whom will vote for republican u. s.
Senator, both Of whom will respect the
wishes of their constituents as to a choice

r. F. Kay is one of those unselfsh men
who have given time and money foK the
help of others for years and years without
asking any return, and is not now. His
nomination was the unanimous wish of the
republicans of the county and without
solicitation on his part. His known ability,
his scrupulous honesty, his undoubted
claims on hundreds of the men of all par
ties whom he has assisted by sympathy and
with money In the past, should MAKE his
majority one of the largest of any received.

There seems to be reasonable certainty
that the entire republican county ticket " Ill

should.be no over. confidence, however,
every republican voter should get to the

two offices-but they can not do it If repub-
licans turn out and vote the ticket.

Chas. B. Collingwood Believes in At
tending to Public Duties.
Very much to his own regret and
more so to large number of persons
who desired to meet and hear him dis
cuss the issues of the present campaign,
G. b. Collingwood, republican candi-
date for state senator in this district, was
obliged to cancel his appointments in
this county. This was made necessary
by his duties as attorney for the city of
Lansing Mr., Collingwood believed
his first duty was to the people of Lam
sing, who had entrusted their legal In
terests in his hands and true to his ma
ture he cast aside his own personal am
billions and wishes to do his duty The
Lansing Republican editorially refers
to the matter as follows.
1.-THE action of the council today in
cutting down number of Bell tele-
phone poles in the northern part of the
city was the most heroic act yet per-
formed by that body. And the wonder
is the ak was not brought into play
long ago. Indeed, the council should
not stop the good work until every pole
belonging to the Bell junta within the
corporate limits of the city be leveled
to the ground, unless it complies with
the ordinance in such cases made and
provided. The company wanted to
begin friendly suit with the city re-
garding the matter, but the evident OBJ
ject of this was to tie up the question
in the courts for years-a favorite
method of warfare with the Bell people
and other equally grasping corpora
tons. City Attorney Collingwood
would not have it this way, however,
and advised the action taken today,
showing that he has nerve and spinal
columns man with the courage of his
convictions-just such a man as will
represent the interests of the people in
fearless manner in the state senate.
The council did well in following Mr.
Collingwood's advice and the State Re-
publican applauds all concerned"
In view of the existing facts we be.
lieve those who were disappointed that
Mr.. Collingwood could not meet his
will say he did just right
by attending to his official duties. Fur
Their, that such a man can be depended
upon to stand for honest legislation and
equal taxation.

Statement.

Camden, n. j.. Jan. 6.-The sudden
and sensational ending Of the trial of
Eli Shaw for the murder Of his grand
mother has aroused the entire bar Of
Camden county to the highest pitch in
view of the charges that have been
made to the effect that the mistrial was
ordered after evidence had been placed
in Judge Garrison's possession that
some one had tampered with the panel
of As talesmen from whom the ~ We're
to be selected to try young Shaw. 1t
is now believed that Juror Cox, who
was said to belong to the same secret
society as Shaw, had nothing to do with
the termination of the case. On the
other hand, it is definitely stated that
one of the jurors on the panel was Wis
tied and was told if he should be one
of the - drawn and would hold out
| against a conviction he would receive
a certain amount of money
EX-Judge Hugg, one Of the oldest
Jurists in the county, said he would en-
deavor to have an early meeting of
the Bar association and urge a thor
ough investigation of the charges.
Judge Garrison would neither affirm
nor deny the circulated statements to
the above effect. He said the matter
was not for the public at present.
Prosecutor Jenkins was absent from
his office most of the day, and when
asked about the matter said: THE

ONE OF THEM HAS RESIGNED

on Account Of Removal From the
Town-The Vacancy Will be
Filled at the Next
Meeting

The first regular meeting of the School
Board for the new year was held in the Drec.
tors room in the West street school building
last night. Ten of the Directors were in at
tendance, Messrs. Dewitt Hanna, Edwards.
Higgins, Dove, Sullivan. Britt, Breslin,
Coughlin and Connors.
The most important development of the
meeting was the reading of the resignation of
William T Trezise, the School Director from
the Third ward, who has become a resident
of Brooklyn, N. Y. The resignation was
dated at that place and read as follows:
II hereby tender my resignation as a mem

be found in. the front rank of the state
educational department and that you, as a
body, will lend your aid in the future, as
you have in the past, to keep them there.
remain, Yours respectfully,
WILLIAM r. TREzIsE"
The resignation was accepted on motion of
Mr.. Britt and the filling of the vacancy laid
over until the next regular meeting.
The committee on heating and fuel
through Mr.. Higgins, reported that it had
been found necessary to use stove coal in
stead Of pea coal in the new White street
building, and recommended that the con-
tractor be allowed s125 extra per ton. The
recommendation was adopted
Mr.. Sullivan said that the committee on
building and repairs was keeping the
plumbers busy and the Board need not be
surprised when the bills come in.
Mr. Breslin handed in a written report
from the exoneration committee which dealt
at length with the 1894 duplicate of Tax
Collector Scanlsn. According to previous
settlement the Board held Mr.. Scanlan for
81, 26l 05 as balance of the exonerations on
that duplicate. In its report last night the
committee said it was evident that an in
justice had been done the collector and he
should be exonerated from the balance.
The report of the committee was accepted,
and the recommendations adopted.
Mr.. Coughlin reported progress on the
movement to establish penny savings banks

In securing the hotel Mr. Scott purchased

Mr. j. G.. Metz, who managed the hotel after
Mr. Stcmpson resigned and up to the time
the deal was made, will be continued in the
position. Mr. Scott and his wife will move
to town at once. Two Of his daughters teach
school in Mt. Carmel and one of his sons is
employed in a bank there. They will not
move to town.
In speaking of his new venture to day
Mr.. Scott said he would make no alterations
in the hotel, as its present condition is ex-
celently adapted for all demands that may
be made upon it. 1t has ffty-four well
heated and lighted sleeping apartments and
the lower part of the house is equally well
arranged. The new proprietor is evidently a
man who thoroughly understands the hotel
business and the Frauey should be successful
in his hands.

the Organization of the House.
Annapolis, Jan. 6-The split in the
ranks of the Republican members of
the house of delegates, which devel-
oped at Tuesday nights caucus, con-
tinued yesterday, with the result that
the house was compelled to adjourn
without having organized, and there
seems to be no immediate prospect Of
a settlement of the difficulty The
trouble arises from the position as
sumed by II of the members of the
Baltimore city delegation who say they
are in rebellion against the rule of
United States Senator Wellington, Gov
ernor Lowndcs and other party lead
eTs, and do not propose to be governed
by them. Without the aid of seven of
the seceders the Republican majority
cannot elect a speaker, and with four
of them the Democrats would have the
number necessary unuer the constitu-
tion to effect an organization.
The recaIcitrant Republicans have a
! candidate for the speakership in the
| person of Mr. Schaefer, a member OF
! the Baltimore city delegation, and as
| yet nothing has been done to indicate
a fusion between them and the Dem
