nIsAPPolNTEp euT MEEK.

rDHE Milford News is disappointed.
OF course there is nothing par
ticularly astonishing about that,
for certain policies lead to disappoint-
ment just as certainly as the state road
leads to the town Of Milford. II had
a great scheme; and it didn't work.
Many a great scheme has failed to
work. and when that happens it is like
a tramp with the same failing good for
nothing.
The News has been the champion OF
tho plain, everyday people. II did
not want to see any boss or any coli
lection Of bosses get together and name
a ticket for the everyday Republican "a
vote. So it suggested that prior to tn,
Republican convention there should he
an agreement on a ticket mutually sat
isfactory to both factions, and that the
conventions should both ratify it. il
this way. st figured out, the voters
would have a ticket perfectly satisfac
tory to them. harmony would pitch OF
our banners and the plain voter woul'
someway feel that he had done thI
business.
But our contemporary-it may hav
been an oversight-failed TO state how
q ticket agreed upon in advance Of tn
conventions by a few leaders on eithe
side could be regarded as a ticket o
their own selection, one that they them
selves had made.
But genius does not halt in the fac'
of one failure; it persists. even though
another failure is all that it can antici'
pate. The Republicans Of all factions
are urged to get together before Tho
Union Republican convention. patch NJ
their differences, name an acceptable
ticket and have the Union Republican
convention ratify It. OF course they
would do IT, ,and yet that thought is not
in harmony with the idea expressed by
The News. namely: that the average
voter wants o help sgAet a ticket.

experimenting with the idea for the
last eight years, but never reached a
point where success was certain until
about three weeks ago. The process is
simple and costs no more than the or
binary way of handling steel.

MR.. BYRNE TO STUMP.

"HE announcement comes from
New York that William Michael
Byrne will take the stump in
the approaching campaign. There are
two ways I'm which man appointed
to office can attempt to Justify his Sc
lection. One is TO buckle down to busi-
ness and perform the duties Of his po-
sition to the best Of his ability, and
the other is TO regard mis- appointment
as in the nature Of personal gift, and
attempt to make a return In kind.
But we doubt very much whether
Mr. Ryrne's services will be accepted,
for recently the President issued "a
warning to the effect that Federal Of
fce-holders must keep out OF active
politics, even II the party shall lose
votes thereby.
Mr.. Byrne is an eloquent speaker
but we do not think the vote for the
President win be materially affected
by the decision of this friend as to
whether he shall take the stump or de-
vote his energies to the work Of the
Office for which a draws a salary from
the government. We are inclined tC
think that the truest way for Mr.
Byrne to show his friendship for IN,
President is for him to perform tn,
duties OF his office with fidelity.

A YOUNG CANDIDATE.

" HE man whose name Is not men,
toned in connection with the Of
flee Of governor these days must
not feel slighted. Indeed. not to have
ones name mentioned i'm that connec-
tion is likely TO be regarded as dis
tinctlon. The latest candidate TO be
brought forward is a young man of %,
if we are not mistaken; certainly one
who has never cast a vote for Presl-
dent
The Dover correspondent Of the sun
day Star is responsible for the story OF
the latest candidates aspirations. In
speaking Of the Democratic candidates
this writer says: "The most likely one
and which 0O IS taken for granted all
can agree upon is John p. Holland. Of
Milford" The article continues with
words Of eulogy, saying that Mr.. Hol-
land would receive the entire vote Of
his party and draw from the opposition
as he is man of sterling qualities.
Possibly that is correct. but is not
Mr. Holland a little young? Would not
his father, Joseph L. Holland who has
been spoken Of make a more acceptable
candidate on account Of his more ma
ture age. 1t would certainly be a
ticket representing extremes, contain
ing the name of a vice-presidential can
didte aged 81 and candidate for gov
ernor aged %. Anyway it promises to
be an interesting contest when father
and son are rival aspirants for the
gubernatorial nomination.
