New Jersey did not make much of a
display in the Inauguration parade at
Washington Saturday. Governor Stokes
was missed from the head of the pro-
eession. He was indisposed and did not
feel that he ought to/take the risk of
riding at the head of the New Jersey
delegation. What was lacking in dis
play was made up, though, III enthusi-
asm. The Republicans, big and little,
who were in Washington as spectators
did not forget to lei the whole country
know thar New Jersey gave Roosevelt
the biggest majority ever recorded for
a Presidential candidate.

Even the Republican press of the State
is protesting against the prospective re-
tirement of Charles G. Black from the
State Board Of Taxation. The bill abol-
ishing the board is slated for passage,
and it. is said that on the new board
that is to take its place some Democrat
other than Mr. Black is to be the mi
nority representative. Republicans as
well as Democrats regard this action as
unworthy a political party and tlfat Gov
elnor Stokes will lose many friends if
he persists in carrying out the programme
is evident from the attitude of the Re
publican newspapers. Major Carl Lentz,
Republican boss of Essex county, will,
it Is said, be the president Of the Board
of Adjustment OH Taxes.

Mayor Pagan and Corporation Conn-

the legislative committee that has the
equal taxation bin in charge that the
one submitted by Mr.. Record in behalf
of the Mayor be agreed upon for pass
age. The Democrats viii insist on the
Hamill bin being reported, and Mr..
Duffeld, who has bill Of his own, will
probably point ont its good features and
ask all interested TO support It. Persons
who know the feelings of the legislators
are certain Of one thing, and that is
that Mayor Pagan and Mr.. Record will
not receive much consideration at the
hands of the committee

There is talk among Democrats that
should it be deemed wise in order to
promote harmony in the party to drop
all the aspirants for the nomination for
Sheriff ROW in the field. Charles Car

ferries, will be urged as a compromise
candidate Mr.. Carroll is an organiza-
tion Democrat and has many friends
among Republicans, who would not hesi-
tate TO vote for him. His selection, it is
believed, would be a happy solution of
the situation.

Robert Davis. Democratic leader of
Hudson county, was 81 years old yester-
day. His friends remembered the fact.
and this morning many of them called
at his office in Mercer street and CON
graduated him on thesevent. Mr.. Davis
was in unusually good spirits: and had a
pleasant word for all. Several aspi-
rants for appointments and nominations
accepted the opportunity Of pushing their
claims, and there is no doubt that they
received more consideration than they
would under ordinary circumstances.

EDITORIAL

Other matters of greater moment
and importance having claimed our
attention, we have not commented
before on the last utteranceS OF DIR.
Lindsay.
An American paper of great import
ance-The New York Sun-published
lin this connection a timely article,
whose appearance we heartily appla-
uded.
The gideonic theory of DR. Lindsay
one Of the imported pedagogues-
was successfully combatted by the
above paper in the article to which
we refer.
DR.. Lindsay seriously proposes,
among other things. that instead of
spending, as at present, twenty five
percent of the Insular revenues for
educational purposes, the Insular aut
horities spend 6fty percent, That,
and other absurdities expressed by
the ex-commissioner are exploded
with telling effect by the New York
SUM-.
In contradicting the arguments adv
anced by DR. Lindsay, the "Sun" makes
use of phrss Sc put in the form of
question.
Full heads or full stomachs?' And
with this question it annihilates the
surprising theory which the re-pat
rated functionary proclaims as the
latest conquest of pedagogy.
DR.. Lindsay's theories manifest a
qideonic excess ridiculous in all their
aspects.
The Sun has stated the case clear
|ly. What is needed in Porto Rico is
industrial prosperity. 1t continues:
"Dr. Lindsay begins at the wrong
end. What he calls the success of
Our governmental experiment in Porto
Rico" depends upon the measure of
economic prosperity which we confer
on the people of our forgotten island.
If we get them busy and make them
prosperous they will have money to
spend for all the schools they want or
need. They can then fill their heads
without robbing their stomachs. For
the island and for us a population of
we'll fed workers, earning money to
pay for the education of their children,
is vastly better than herd of over
educated starvellings. Porto Rsco's first
need is industrial fy0spersty. EdHcatasn
aVill felloa0 as q natural sequence.
What does DR.. Lindsay want? Does
he wish us to devote our energies and
substance to the maintenance of de-
partment in which he committed so
many and glaring blunders, contribu
ting our resources SO that hundreds
of thousands of books may be thrown
away and wasted as is other school
material?
1t would be infinitely better fer the
|impenitent ex-funtionary to reconcile
himself to leaving things as they are,
and to mediate on the bitter meaning
embodied in the question: FmH Heads
or Full StoMacAs?
We have seen here the failure of
the rural schools, that they have been
completely abandoned by the country
children and the unfortunate youthful
