A WISE CONCLUSION.

General Mcmahon of the Board of
Managers Of the National Soldiers
Home, speaking for the board, said to-
day "The board has decided to main
tain canteens at all the homes for the
good and sufficient reason that expert
ence has taught us that it is better for
the veteran and for the people in the
communities in which the homes are To-
Gated. The canteens are properly con,
Quoted at these homes and the result is
that the veterans do not squander their
money in cheap saloons, nor do they
drink too much. What is more, do
not believe any further pressure will be
brought to bear on us for the abolish
ment of the canteen."

PURE FOOD FOR NEW JERSEY


Operating under new law con-
trolling the investigation Of food and
drink, the state board of health will
begin an examination of drinking
water and canned goods which will
be more searching and widespread
than any heretofore made. All the
drinking water of municipalities is..to
be analysed, and SO are the SO called
curative spring waters sold in bottles
and jugs. The food law is to .be
amended SO as to compel the year of
packing to be stamped on canned
goods and to make it misdemeanor
to relabel goods outside of the can
merry, or to return any invoice of can
ned goods to cannery to be relabel-
ed. which now is the practice Of job
bers holding old stock. An additional
chemist is to be stationed at the bac-
THEOLOGICAL laboratory at Princeton
university. AS soon as the appropria-
tion is increased beers, ales and wines
will be subject to state supervision by
official analysis. Paterson Press.

ALATE APOLOGY.

The Methodist ministers of New
York city, at their regular monthly
meeting on Monday, says the Jersey
City Journal divided the time be-
tween eulogies of President Mckinley
and expressions of regret for the
bitterness with which they denounced
him two years ago. They agreed
that their remarks upon his relation to
the canteen question were mot called
for. and that they We're now salts
fed that at all times Mr.. Mckinley s
sympathies were with the anti liquor
movements. = DR.. Buckley referred
to the former "base allegations as
utterly without foundation, and
others stood up to retract their own
ISLANDERS upon the departed and
found excuses in their former ig-
norance.
If we mistake not DR.. Buckley
never favored the adjustment of the
canteen. Probably for the reason
that he viewed the matter from a
broad standpoint which came from
personal observation of the canteen
in operation.

THE ROOSEVELT WAY.

Major Llewellyn of Las Cruces, in
the land of New Mexico, was gazing
sympathetieally at the plankeds white
fish just set before him, says the
Chicago Times Herald, when he lifted
his eyes to mine and remarked:
"The colonel (meaning President
Roosevelt) was talking the other day
with one of his old boys trough rider)
who has come out into our country
to do business, and he said to him:
Get action. Do things. Be
sane. Don't fritter your time away !;
create. act, take place wherever you
are and be somebody. Get, action
"That's the colonel all over. It's
the story of his own life. It's the
advice he gave us all when we parted
with him at Montauk Point. Do you
remember that evening in the camp
when the regiment stood in front Of
him and the parting came? / can hear
him say now as he did then: Re
member when you go out into the
world, tomorrow, for nine days you
will be regarded as heroes, and then
you will have to take your places as
ordinary citizens. You will be judged
then for what you are, what you do
as men, not as to what you have
been. Don't get gay. 4"
He believes only in creative work !;
that which produces something for
the general good or that which stores
reserves for future necessity. His
face never turns backward. He looks
and works ahead
Those who know him least think
his character complex. 1t is not. He
is simplicity itself. He hates lie,
he detests moral or physical cow
ardice, he believes in sane work, he is
reticent as to his enemies, and loyal
to his friends. He has more calm,
cool headed conservatism in the fiber
of his nature than most of the public
men of the day, and the republic will
know it during the next thres years.
1t is not milk and water conserva-
tism, but the broad, high bearing
kind that works for the whole people
without thought of self.
Llewellyn rode the way that led to
death with President Roosevelt from
Siboney, through Las Gusaimas, to
San Juan and up the steel swept
slopes. over the bloody crest, and
down to beleagured Santiago. Yellow
fever laid its hand upon him and he
conquered, came back to life and the
earnest duties of clean citizenship.
He knows the man who now rules at
Washington in the name of the people.
So do some others who have watched
him under all kinds of circumstances,
have measured him as all men must
be truly measured, by daily habit and
conduct.

LOW A srRoNc CANDIDATE.

With Seth Low receiving the hearty
support of all the anti Tammany organi-
cations in New York it seems certain
that he will win the mayoralty cleo
ton over any candidate whom Loss
Croker may name.
The cordial endorsement of Lows
nomination by the Citizens Union,
which is composed of Democrats opposed
to Tammany, will give the reform can
didate backing at the polls which cam
not be beaten AT the last election,
when Low ran as candidate against
Van Wyck, the Tammany candidate,
the former and General Tracy, the
straight Republican candidate, polled
twenty thousand more votes than there
were cast for the Tammany candi-
date. There is every reason to
believe that Low will get more
votes this year than he and Tracy re-
oeived together at the last election, be-
cause he will now have the support of
many voters who were Indifferent before
on account of their belief that division
of the forces opposing Tammany would
insure the election of Van Wyck.
The Democrats, that is the Tammany-
ties as to be correct, Boss Croker, have
selected Edward M. Sheppard as the
candidate to oppose Mr.. Low.
Altogether it looks very much as if
Tammany's grip upon the metropolis
would be shaken off in November.

HOW THEY WOULD LIKE TO DO IT

The Democratic State Platform adopted
by bowling mob at Trenton on Tues
day contains several very good things
borrowed from the Republican Platform
for the sake Of appearance, and not with
any serious intention of ever carrying
them into effect. 1t contains several
paragraphs which are pure rot, designed
to tickle the ears of the groundlings,
There is, however, one pledge which we
are willing to accept in all seriousness.
That is the promise to administer the
State government on the old lines. We
presume that includes race track legis-
lations coal combines, Senate steals,
State House extravaganza and such like
just SO Same old party" "Same old
gang. Same old policy.

NEW JERSEY RANKS HIGHEST.

In the Newark Sunday News of Sept.
Goth, President John F. Dryden of the
Prudential Insurance Co., under the
caption of Americans are advancing
toward physical supremacy" has an ex-
ceedingly interesting and instructive
article from which we quote:
'Mr. Hoffman, who has made ex-
haustive investigation Of such questions
as are raised by your topic of discussion,
considers the American the best insur-
ance risk among civilized nations, e.
cepting the Swedes and Norwegians,
the longest lived people whose vital
statistics are kept.
He has prepared comparative NOR
tally table which shows that close be-
hind Norway, and ahead of Great Brit
ain, France, Germany and ahead of
other States of cur country, New Jersey
has the lowest death rate.
This is an honor of which the State
may well be proud
During recent years, the death rate
for New Jersey has considerably de-
creased. The improvement is due large
ly to the advance of public hygiene,
peUter uIdindSe anu purer water sup
plies, and, as regards the male popula-
ton over thirty, to better conditions of
factory life, especially in the potteries
of Trenton and the hat factories of Es-
sex county.
The State is very healthy, notwith-
standing the high mortality among Ital-
ian and other foreign elements of our
population. which are subject to an
excessive death rate among children
under five years.

Comment of Elwyn Waller, Phi. d.,
ON analysis of sample of Morristown
water taken ON Sept s4th. These
analyses are mad twice a month :
Gin view of recent sensational
statement in at least one of the New
York papers about malarial sickness
in Morristown, may state that the
character and quality of the water
supply shows normal conditions,
and is essentially the same as in
other years at this time of the year.
There is, therefore, no reasonable
ground imagining that disease is
being conveyed by this water. 2
