Address to Voters by Representa-
tive Clergymen.

We, the undersigned ministers Of re-
ligion. declare our deep conviction that
the war against the Filipi nos is not right
We regard it as war of conquest and
directly within Mr.. McKinley's defini-
ton OF "criminal aggression"
We refuse to accept the undemoeratlc
conclusion that because the American
people can by might govern colonies,
they ought to do so. We deny that either
the President or Congress may rightfully
govern any man anywhere outside the
protecting restraints of the Constitution.
We agree with Benjamin Franklin THAT
neither the obtaining nor the retaining
of any trade, is an object for which men
may justly shed each others blood.n We
feel bound to withhold our approval of the
immoral use Of the public authority even
to accomplish an assumed moral end.
We bold that what is immoral for men
to do acting singly is immoral for them
to do acting collectively as a nation.
Each step in course of action must be

immortality. No end can justify immoral
means to secure it. 1t is too late to main.
tain the doctrine that in the sacred name
of religion we may kill some men in order
to convert those who survive. "Love not
force, was the weapon of the Nazarene;
sacrifice for others, not exploitation of
them, was His method of reaching the
human heart"
We desire to see America exercise her
influence as ''world power" in new
rather than in the old way. We view
with grave apprehension the tendency to
make her what other nations are. We
moral factor in the worlds progress. Any
great and permanent increase of her mil
itary establishment, with the cultivation
of the military spirit among US, will in
dicate moral deterioration.

Campaign Meetings.

The Cranbury Republicans held mass
meeting ON Tueday night which was
largely attended and very enthusias-
tic. They were addressed by Lawyer
George L. Record, of Jersey City, and
Lawyer Geo. Berdine, of New BruDs-
wick. Both are eloquent and forceful
speakers and left their hearers in high
state of enthusiasm.
The Cranbury Democrats also held a
fine mass meeting on Wednesday even
ing when they listened to the addresses
of .Assemblyma Allen Benny, of
Bayonne, and Lawyer Peter F. DAILY, of
New Brunswick. Both these covered
all the issues very ably and made great
impressions. Mr.. Daily has rendered ex-
celent service to his party in this cam
paign, while Mr.. Benny has been equally
effective.
Mr.. Jas. H. Mount, of Jamesburg
sang his campaign song. "When Bryan
Takes Command" and was cbeered to
the echo. Mr. Mount sent copy to Mr..
Bryan and received from him signed
acknowledgment which he read to the
meeting.
There were delegates present from
Jamesburg and Dayton, forty being from
the latter place.
Senator VanCleef, DR.. Loblein. Editor
O'Harra and others made sho rt speeches,
the Senator being particularly effective.
He makes friends every where and already
is considered as good as elected.
The Democrats of Jamesburg enjoyed
a rousing political meeting on Monday
evening. st. James Hal, was packed
with fine audience of ladies and gentle
men, who gave the most respectful and
enthusiastic attention. Lawyer Peter
Francis DAILY, of New Brunswick, made
the longest address and perhaps the finest
effort of his career. He was most eloqu,
ent, quoting literally from Mr.. Bryan
and Mr.. Cochran without the aid of note
and giving most convincing argument
for the faitn that is in him. He made
mastery plea for the sup port of our old
and time-honored standards of govern
mentor still further love and esteem
for the Declaration of Independence and
of the Cons titution, and an avoidance OF
such entangling alliances and wars as
have been consequent upon the acts of the
present Administration.
The Rev, A. Kennedy Duff, of Ho-
boken, N. J., also made an address in
which he declared that the present Adj
ministration is on the defensive because
its acts have been un-American and
dangerous to our form of government and
tending toward the destruction of free
governments in the world. The latter
speaker was very funny and made con-
siderable merriment. Senator VanCleef,
DR., Riva and DR.. Loblein, the other can.
didates, all made short speeches and were
literally applauded. Senator VanCleef
received an ovation from his many friends
here and was cheered by large crowds
outside the hall, when he left for bis
train.
Mr.. James H. Mount sang his cam
paign song aud was cheered at the end of
every verse. 1t is good song and is ap =
preciated wherever sung. A large num-
ber of them were distributed at Trenton
when Mr.. Bryan spoke there and they
were eagerly sought. The speakers de-
clared the Jamesburg meeting one of the
best they had seen.
