THERE are several matters of inn
portance to Morris county that will
come before the Legislature the COM
ing winter-the question Of equal tax
alton, the abandonment Of the Morris
canal, the taking Of the potable water,
etc. and it is Of the utmost import
ance that we should be represented in
the Legislature by men Of ability and
experience. The Republican party
without dissenting voice in the con
yention selected Messrs. Hillery, Bak-
|er and Mills to represent them in the
law-making body, and their special
fitness fer the duty is unquestioned.
Their election is also important from
the fact that they vote for a United
States States Senator. Hence a vote
for the Republican candidates not on
ly conserves our home interests but
also sustains the policy that has placed
our nation in the front rank Of the
nations OF the earth.

WE learn that candidate MARITIME is
doing the Absalom act, and going about
quizzing men to find II they are dissat-
istied about anything, and If SO sug-
costing that a vote for him mighttin
some way remedy the matter. This
is Characteristic Of the man, for he
has always been rabid supporter Of
All the heresies advanced by his party,
and ever ready to shift his ground to
secure success. Compared with man
OF ability like Mr.. Fowler he certainly
makes a very poor showing. This dis
trict has commanding position in
Congress because of its representative
and will not sacrifice it at the solicita
tion Of shifty politician like his or
pOnent.

SOME of Charles @. Blacks support.
ers are seeking votes for him on the
ground that he is an enthusiastic
Princeton man and has rooted hard

concede that on the same line OF
reasoning the many Jerseyman who
graduated from Yale and other rivals
of Princeton ought to vote against
him. The issue of college partisan
ship is one that cuts both ways.

STOKES QUESTIONS BLACK.


The biggest political meeting ever
held in New Brunswick took place
there Friday night under the auspices
Of the Young Mems Republican club
Of New Brunswick, when E. G. Stokes,
the Republican gubernatorial candi-
date, and Hugh Gordon Miller, Of
Virginia, spoke.
In the course of his speech Senator
Stokes asked Charles @. Black, the
Democratic nominee for governor the
following questions:
The Questions.
You are a member Of commission
to judicially determine whether the
present system of railroad taxation is
right or wrong. You are, of course,
to render a decision that is just to the
railroads and the people alike no
more, no less. You have announced
what you win do before the interested
parties have had their day in court
and have thus prejudged the case.
Do you think this is fair
You say upon a political platform
that the day Of investigation upon
railroad taxation is past. You are
member Of commission to investigate
this subject, accepted it in good faith
and still remain a member Of this
body.
Why do you remain member Of an
Investigating commission if the day of
investigation is past?
You said on May ~ last, in a lecture
upon the subject Of taxation delivered
in Jersey City, that the question of
railroad taxation should be thoroughly
investigated, that the commission
should hear the evidence and debate
upon the law as it is now written by
fall the parties in interest. You
further said that any proposed statute
upon this subject should be thorough
ly and extensively debated by all the
interests involved before it is present.
ed to the legislature, and that it
should then be again thoroughly de-
bated in the legislature.
You say that the day OF inyestigat-
ion is past.
| When did YOU change your mind?
Did you not as member of the
equal tax commission vote to adjourn
the hearings of the commission so that
the interested parties might present
their case?
If, as you say, the day of Investigate
ion has past, why did you vote fer
further investigation?
Why did you not vote for an adj
journment without date?

THE Banners informs us that Mr.
Smith, the Democratic candidate for
Senator, never sought office. That

town committee, been city clerk and
teasurer and a member of the board

happy girls since June 5th. Notwith-
standing this large number Of guests
the living expenses of the season
amounted to only 81, 800 the repairs

case il all annual subscriptions had
been paid. To cover this small de-
felt contributions will be very ac-
Iceptable.
I The fearful farewells Of many Of the
girls, especially those who had been
guests for a month or more, were
quite pathetic. Their love for the
matrons and for the Shelter seemed
real indeed, and they all said they
were going home to live for next
summer. Besides the various plea
sures Of outdoor country life they
had many diversions for rainy days
and evenings Dancing was a great
enjoyment and the piano had been

plays that were extremely amusing,

The Trenton Times sizes up the
situation in this Congressional Dis
trict when it says: tThe nomination
of James r.. MARITIME for Congress by
the Democrats Of the Fifth district
against Mr.. Fowler looks like a case of
giving up before the battle. With De
Witt Clinton Flanagan willing to ac-
[cept the nomination and spend his
money literally, it is fair to assume
that If there had been a good chance
to win the convention would not have
namedia man who has been defeated
for public office at least half a dozen
times, even though he is one of the
best campaigners in the district. Mr..
