STATE PRIMARY.

If the State Committee Of the
Democratic party had undertaken
to please every man in the party
it would have made bad Job.
Democratic as the members Of that
committee are, they undertook to
give the people the right as well as
power to select their own caDdi-
dates and while we would have
added some provisions. we approve
the action Of the committee and
heartily commend it to the party.
A few would-be bosses are not
pleased and denounce the action
of the committee. Imbued with
that Democratic principle: The
voice Of the people in all meas
ures, such party actions would
soon adjust differences existing be-
tween the mighty money forces
and the great common people.

WHAT CAPITALISTS THINK

A vast scheme to develop Ken
lucky by foreign capital is on foot
and ere long, Kentucky with her
hospitable ways will have gone
with the summer sun, and the
horses, beautiful women and gal
lant men will be turned leaf in
history. The Associated Press is
authority for the following state
ment:
"A syndicate composed Of
Chicago, Duluth and Eastern cap
italists, closed a deal for hundred
thousand acres Of mineral and tim
Der lands in the border counties OF
Eastern Kentucky and has options
on four hundred thousand acres
more.
This is included in scheme for
the development of vast mineral
wealth and the extension Of three
large railroad systems into the Big
Sandy region. These roads are
the Cincinnati, Hamilton and Day
ton, Chesapeake and Ohio, and
Sea Board Airline.

Kentucky. Another reason why
he should be nominated is because
he is an unhinching Democrat, one
who never asked in Democratic
service. Another reason why he
should be nominated is because
his sphere is that of the great COM
mon people, never arrogating to
himself more that what he is.
Another reason why he should
be preferred is because he is the
choice Of his district, solid back
ing here that will ask for his nom

WHO SHALL IT BE?

The Democratic papers of Ken
tucky are beginning to show a
preference among the announced
candidates for Governor, and
many are they who prefer Gov.
Beckham. AS for the ADVOCATE,
whe are down here among the
people and its Editor has one vote
just like all other Democrats, but
we are as journalist prepared to
consider the men offering their
abilities. their morals, their dem
ocracy, (are they sound in the
faith3 their energies.
Gov. Beckham has proven him
self equal to the requirements OF
his office. He has made a peo-
pies Governor. He is literally
eligible and we believe his exper
fences, his continual study Of
greater questions ofState have bet
ter prepared him to fill out a full
term. There are other men offer
ing equally as we'll qualified, none
closer to the hearts of the Demo.

Barbourville He would make an
acceptable official, and there are
others.

tanned, give the Offices to the 9TH

some Democrats to learn a few

SYPHON FOR GAS.
Difficulty Overcome in Laying
Main Pipes Down Newark
Avenue Hill.

For weeks past small army of men
has been busy working in trenches above
and below the Newark avenue bridge
laying an iron pipe. Each length weighs
over $500 pounds and has to be lowered
into the trenches by means of a derrick
The men are laying a gas main down the
hill to connect the mains on the
Heights, from the intersection of Pavonia
avenue, with that which leads from the
head of Sixth street to the Hudson Coun-
ty Gas Company's works at the foot of
that thoroughfare
The problem of getting across the
bridged cut was a tough one to solve.
The bridge would not stand the extra
weight of pipe. The problem was solved
by the erection of a cast-iron riyeted
tank, which while looking like a guard
rail for the bridge, acts as a syphon that
will convey gas from the main at the top
of the bridge to that at the lower end and
thus connect it with the Sixth street
main.
1t was an engineering feat the COM
pany was obliged to solve preparatory to
moving its plant at the foot of Sixth
street to st. Paurs avenue at West
End.

Robert Davis's Kindly Efforts
Distribution of Mr.. Young's
Supply.

For several weeks City Collector
Robert Davis has been trying to get
1000 tons of coal at cost price for dis
tribution free among the poor of the city.
He wrote to the D., L. & W., Erie and
z. r. r., asking them if they would sup
ply him with the desired supply and ex-
spla ming the purposes to which be *.
peeted to put it.
None of the roads could accommodate
him. President w. Fl. Truesdale of the
D.. l.. & w. r. r. wrote that his COM
pany was doing what they could to fur
nish enough coal to hospitals and schools
to prevent them from shutting down.
Mr., Truesdale felt that the road could
not spare Mr.. Davis any.
Williams & Peters, of No. 1 Broad
way, New York, wrote that they were
doing their best to take care of schools,
churches, hospitals, water works and gas
companies.
Then Mr.. Davis saw e. F. G. Young.
who succeeded in getting possession OF
200 tons, which ne will have distributed
free among the poor of the city.
MIR. Davis and Poormaster Hewitt
will constitute the committee on distri-
button. The coal is expected to arrive
in Jersey City in a few days. The plans
for the distribution have not been de-

WON'T BURN OIL JUST YET
FreehoIders Think Strike Will
Be Settled Before Their
Coal Supply Runs
Out.

The Freholders in caucus yesterday af-
ternoon decided to await developments in
the coal strike situation before inaugural
ing the contemplated oil fuel plant.
This decision was reached because of
the favorable reports as to the probable
early settlement of the strike received
from the Pennsylvania coal fields. A
supply of coal sufficient for Snake Hill
institutions until November Is is on hand
and the general belief is that by the time
that is exhausted there will be plenty of
coal in the market.
In view of these facts it was deemed
advisable not to resort to a system which
must at the best be an experiment
