THESE ARE ON MIDDLE X.

The Newark Evening News, the
most influential, independent and fair
newspaper in the State, is taking an
unusual interest in Middlesex county
this fall. 1t is doing a good work too,
and the people who are trying to give
the s5unty a house cleaning are glad
to- have such an able ally. Here is
one of the editorials in the Newark
News of last night:
Every time a voter in Perth Am
boy takes a drink of the city water he
sion in the place of the Board of
F~reeholders, because the board will
not allow the needed pure water
mains to be laid. But every time
voters in other parts in the county
take q drink of something else, at the
~freehold"rs' expense, they register q
VOW to vote to keep the old board in
power. When these VOWS are all
summed up on election day water may
win for once in Middlesex.
Then our genial friend, the Estate
Etching man of the same paper Inns
this to say:
1.-THE present campaign isn't the
most vigorous n ever waged in New
Jersey. but it doesn't lack for humor
The funniest thing SO far, however,
occurred in Miidlesex county, where
the Democrats nominated a former
member of tile Board of Freeholderi
for county clerk and then adopted 9
platform declaring that graft hat
reached high-wator mark in the county
of Ocean," There was nothing near
sighted about that convention"

running forty miles an hour. The big
freight locomotive, with the heavy
train behind it, demolished the light
passenger locomotive and then plowed
through the baggage and smoking
cars.
Most of the killed were in the smok-
ing ear. Nearly all the passengers
were asleep when the crash came, and
many of them knew nothing of the
wreck until they returned to conscious
ness lying along the right of way,
where they had been thrown by the
force of the collision.
The teen of the wreck was a fearful
one. The two big locomotives We're
torn almost to scraps. The smoking
| ear and several of the freight cars were
smashed beyond all recognition, and
the dead and injured were scattered
for 100 feet around.
The scene of the wreck was in a dip,
on either side of which there was a
| steep rise. Both trains had put on
| extra steam to carry them up the op-
posite hill. and when they met at the
| curve at the lowest point they were
running at a terrific rate. The pas
| senger train was made up of three
coaches and a Pullman.
T. c. Dressed, postmaster at Easton-
vile, Kan, was taken out from under
a heap of seven bodies, suffering only
a broken leg.
The conductor Of the freight train
says he was doing while his train was
f, at Montserrat, and when the local
train passed Engineer Horton believed
it was the second section Of the Wichi-
Ia train and, thinking the track clear,
pulled out on the main line.
The injured were taken to Sedalia
and the dead to Warrensburg. AT

KANSAS CITY, Mo-. Oct. II. =
Twenty-nine persons were killed, sew
eral are dying and sixty were Sc
riously injured in n head-on collision
between the second section of the Mis-
souri, Pacific worlds fair special and a
westbound extra freight train near
Montserrat, Mo The wreck was due
to a misunderstanding Of orders on
the part of the freight crew.
The forward coach of the passenger
train was ~telescoped, and the other
cars of both trains were badly dam
aged.
Travel to the worlds fair has been
so heavy that all roads recently have
been sending out their trains in two or
more sections. The train wrecked was
made up at Wichita, and, as is the
custom, it picked up additional coach
cs. The last coach taken up was at
Pleasant Hill, Mo. All the coaches
were crowded.
The first section of the passenger
train went through Montserrat, accord
ing to local officers of the road, carry
ing the usual signals denoting a train
following; but, overlooking this, the
freight pulled out.

stretch of track. it collided with the

small books find their way into every

is spent in this manner that there is
not enough for spectacular effect.
The real reason for so much apathy,
however, is the wonderful increase in
the independent vote. The voters have
ceased to follow a party bIindly. They
no longer vote a certain ticket because
their fathers did. So independent have

It is this feeling which now exists
throughout the country that has
deadened enthusiasm. There are no
m onster parades, because enough men
will not consent to march. While
this eliminates much of the pictures
queness OF a presidential campaign, it
speaks we'll for the country and is
a sign that politics may eventually be
