CONGRESSIONAL CANDIDATES

Comparisons are not always pleasant
and it may seem ungracious when a
man asks for the suffrages Of his fel-
low citizens TO turn the search-light
full upon his record, revealing his mo-
tives to his own disadvantage. But
the voter has no option, and the hon
est newspaper has no option but to
give the facts as they present them
selves. 1t is also true that the man
who offers himself as a candidate for
office may expect to have his life, his
record and his political character held
up for close scrutiny; and when this is
oone he has no cause for complaint
Candidates for office should be lik,

In this campaign there are three can
didates for Congress. All l'of them hav
borne good regulations as far as thei

concerned. This we have right to ex

Some Effecrs of the Strike

From the Chicago Record Herald.
It is not possible no estimate at this
time the effect of the strike in the an
thracite coal fields upon the domestic or
Industrial economies of the people It
is very certain, however, that had it
continued into the winter the methods
Of heating and cooking would have been
so completely revolutiOnized as to
make a return to former processes de-
cidedly improbable.
AS it was the strike lasted long
enough to demonstrate in many homes
the possibility OF heating and cooking
successfully without hard coal. The
campaign OF education" had already
progressed far enough to enable many
housel1eepers to see the advantages OF
cooking with gas and the possibility ol
using soft coal in furnaces without

CARPING CRITICISM

The New York sun has been so
strenuous in its denunciation of the
Sinking miners that il fails 10 see the

The President has been severely ar

his duties occur daily. and they are

Roosevelt, as the Chief Executive, may
have had no direct powers in the prem

position 1t was eminently fitting and
proper that he should use his good Of

differences. This he succeeded N do

cease their unlawful demonstrations

NEWSPAPER OPINION
Election Predictions
From the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
Predictions Of the result Of an cleo
tion week OFF are never wcrthy of con-
sideration. except when as in 1900, the
drift Of political sentiment was so OBJ
vious that an upward movement in
Wall street had already begun before
the election took place.
This year no such drift is manifest
Apparently, the majorities will not be
great, sweeping" either way. But the
absence Of any unmistakable manifes-
tation of public sentiment must be re-
garded as favorable to the party in
power. The very apathy" of which
we hear so much is an indication OF the
same sort. for it seems to be in both
parties and to the same extent. If there
was going to be a Democratic tidal
wave" next Tuesday, a condition of
feeling very different from apathy
would be plainly observable every
where.
IT, for instance, the New York Demo-
cratic experiment Of Socialism was
working satisfactorily to those who
went into it, the whole country would
be wild over the innovation. Actually,
however, even Mr.. Hill and his candi-
date are trying to sidetrack the issue
by turning the campaign into personal
criticism of the Republican candidate.
Outside Of New York too, the Demo-
cratic heant has refused to be fired by
Socialism.
The registration all over the Union
indicates, however, that the poll will
be large, and nowhere is there any-sign
that the people will not vote coolly.

Apples
From the washlngton Star.

ftlt w 0ldis
There is no good reason why every
apple lover should not have his I'LL of
his fayorite fruit this coming season.
According to a Boston agricultural
journal the country's crop of apples this
year will be 100000 barrels, as
against 27O00, 900 barrels in 1901. This
is not quoted as a record crop, that Of
1896 marking the top notch. But it is
an enormous yield nevertheless, and
sufficient to give the fruit growers a
happy prospect with only the fear Of
insufficient transportation to trouble
them If they can market their fruit
they will make many millions. If,
however, the freight lines are congested
with grain and coal. as some railroad
authorities have predicted, the apple
growers will find 1t difficult to ship TO
the limit of the crop, and there may
be some losses. But in the best apple
growing sections of the country the
farmers have learned from experience
and have co-operated in the construc-
tion Of cold storage plants. where the
apples can be preserved until the mar
ket is attainable or favorable. In an
exceptionally good fruit region, the
storage warehouse is a conspicuous fea-
ture OF the landscape.

The Brunswick Riflemen held a
well attended meeting at the armory
last night and the first steps looking
to complete reorganization were ta-
ken. Capt RoDinson's commission hav-
ing arrived he assumed command of
the company and in a short speech
he outlined his future policy. He
gave the members to understand that
it would be military organization in
every sense of the word, and he was
heartily applauded
Capt. Robinson asked that all the
non-commissioned officers resign. This
was not requested, however, because
of any lack of ability but for the reas-
on that the captain desires a com,
plete reorganization, number OF
applications for membership were re,
ceived and it is safe to say that the
required number, forty, will soon be
enlisted. Regular drills will be held
after the Jewish fair is over, whicn
will be early in next month.
