WANT WARD
OUSTED FROM OFFICE.

Trenton, N. j., August 19.-The
New Jersey State Federation of Labor
to-day unanimously adopted resolu-
tion calling upon Governor Murphy
to remove from Office State Factory
Inspector John Q. Ward, on the
ground that he had been negligent in
performing the duties of his office.
particularly as relate to the enforce
ment of child labor laws.
Mr.. Ward appeared before the con-
vention and denied the charges con-
tanned in the resolution, after which
he was subjected to a cross-fre of
questions by various delegates. Mr..
Ward said that while the child labor
laws might be violated in some in
stances, he was not aware of any par
ticular cases. He insisted that his
department was doing all in its power
to abolish child labor in the State.
Mr.. Ward was followed by William
Q. Doughty, vice president of the Ma
tional Glass Blowers Association of
the United States and Canada. Mr..
Doughty narrated many instances in
which the laws had been violated
dwelling particularly upon the situa-
tion at Minotola. He charged Mr.
Ward with purposely neglecting to
enforce the law.
Numerous resolutions were adopted.
Among those provoking discussion
was one condemning the militia, and
providing that all union men belong
ing to the National Guard should be
expelled from the union. This reso-
luton was defeated after bitter
fight. The following officers were
elected for the ensuing year: Presi-
dent, Cornelius Ford, Hoboken; first
vice president, Frank J. McNulty,
Newark second vice president, Cor
don R. Levake, Millville; secretary,
Henry J. Gottlob, Newark executive
board, Henry s. Hilfers, Newark !;
James G. Leigh, Trenton B. Frank
Dumphy, Camden; Philip Hartman,
Newark. Delegate to national con-
vention, Thomas J. McHugh, New
ark. 1t was decided to hold the next
congress at Bridgeton.

ANOTHER RUNAWAY
CAUSES EXCITEMENT.

A horse driven by Mayor Weldon
went through the central part of the
city late yesterday afternoon, appar-
emily running away. The animal
came up Laurel from Jefferson, past
Commerce and on to Washington
street at lively clip before the driver
could get control of it. Several wag-
ons were cleared by narrow margin
and the affair made some excitement.
In front of Williams lumber yard
men were engaged laying a pipe in
the ground and the street was open
ed half way across, with quite a
wide trench. Luckily, the horse was
guided safey past this or there would
have been serious results.

the altar without invitations and were
converted. Evangelist Hyde, who has
so successfully conducted these and
the Young Peoples Meeting has been
called to the work next camp meeting

There was more than ordinary large

exceedingly popular meetings was
Holiness. +" The morning sermon

meeting to about 5000 people.
The noon altar service was the last

The scenes this afternoon at the
holiness and children's meetings were
as thrilling as they were beautiful.
After the general rejoicing the shout

Lizzie Smith, Lidie Kenny. Clara

from that holy building where many

to the auditorium, singing the hymns
that are so popular here.
At $50 O'Clock the children, several
hundred singing, marched from the
tabernacle to the auditorium and
three times around the circle singing
" Marching to Zion.
There were little girls dressed in
pink and white and lads in knicker-

in spite of their religious training.
After the sermon by Rev. Joseph H.
Smith came the reports of the work

converts made at the auditorium but
they are estimated at nearly hun

HIGH SCHOOL ORATORS
ANNUAL CONTEST TO BE HELD AT
COLUMBUS IN A SHORT TINE.
A Special Train Will Carry the Short
ridge DeIegatiOn-News of
the Schools.

The annual state oratorical contest at
Columbus a week from next Friday night
now occupies the attention Of Shortridge
High School students and is the topic Of
conversation IN the corridors OF the school.
The school organ, the Daily Echo. is boom
ing the contest like any partisan newspaper
and overhows with glaring headlines and
articles telling Of certain victory for the
blue and white. The fair supporters Of
the schools colors are busy making ban
ners for the boys to carry into the enemy's
camp. and meetings are held every after
noon for the purpose of discussing the best
recipe for making fudge to take on the
trip. All sorts OF eatables will be taken
by the young women Of the school. so that
there Will be something doing on the
train going down and also at the contest.
However, the reputation Of the Shortridge
students for being able 10 cause articles
of food to disappear is so well known that
there need be no fear that the girls will
go well prepared.
A special train will take the Shortridge
delegation to Columbus. and it will In all
probability leave here a. Has. For those
who desire to return that night the train
will likely leave Columbus at midnight. 1t
is estimated that about 400 "rooters'' will
compose the Shortridge delegation. while
the next largest crowd will be from the
Madison High School. which viii send 80
followers. The hosts for the occasion
promise the visitors an excellent time. The
principal attraction in the afternoon will
be a double-header ball game. Shortridge
will cross bats with the high schools from
Madison and Columbus. OF course, the
main event in the evening will be the con-
test in the opera house. After the contest
a large reception for the visiting schools
will be given in the City Hall. which is one
of the finest buildings in Columbus An or
ches;ra OF nine pieces will furnish music
for the dancers.
The local school feels that it has an ex-
csllent chance Of winning the contest, as
Coburn Allen. who will represent the blue
and white. is considered one of the best
orators that ever won the primary, and
has the best Grafton ever written by a
Shortridge student. He was given six
frsts in the contest to select a representa-
tive.
Many social organizations In the school
will attend the contest in a body. Among
these are the Delta Phi Senior Boys Club,
High School Cinch Club, DO DO Girls Club.
s. s. S.'ers. O. d. p. Club. the junior frat"
OF Indians and a number OF private parties

STAINS GROWING PAINS

Surely it is a new Spain which has bloody fights between riotOus strikers, influenced largely by anarchists and socialists and the royal troops of the kingdom. Still more is it a different Spain from the country of that name in history in which mobs attack mon asteries and pillage the buildings Of religious orders. Such troubles appear to be the price which all nations must pay for industrial and commercial de velopment. If a country is kept so old fashioned in it's ways of life that it pre- sents little opportunity for aSitators against civic and industrial institutions and conditions it is certain to be weak and stunted. It cannot grow like other nations, nor can it compete success fully with them in business. The old Spain was backward, sleepy, misled by antiquated ideals and false pride. The new Spain may be thrown into fer ment now and then by industrial trou- bles. but it will doubtless De far richer. stronger and more progressive as well as happier in the end than the Spain of former days ever was or could become Cleveland Leader.

A MASTERLY DOCUMENT.

The statement issued by President Roosevelt. embodying his decision in the Schley case. has important educa- tional value. It is as instructive as 1t is forcible. The average citizen, after reading it. has a more lucid and com prehensive idea of the merits of the questions in dispute than he obtained from all his previous reading on the subject.
 The presidents grasp of the whole controversy is perfect. He first in- formed himself thoroughly, examining and digesting all the facts, circum- stances and testimony bearing on the case. He then formed his decision and presented it in a clear. concise, logical review. which left nothing to the i'm agination. The justice of his conclu- sions is unassailable. It seems impos- sibie, in view of the facts presented, that any one could come to q contrary conclusion.
 The statement. in form and substanCe is a handsome testimonial of the presi- dents powers of analysis and expres- sion. It is the most useful Contribu- ton to the literature of the naval quar- rel yet made public.-Kansas City Journal.
