Elect u. 8. Senators BY Direct Vote
"There is a growing public sentiment
in New Jersey in favor of the election
of United States Senators by direct vote
of the people," says the Trenton cores
pondent of the New York Herald. eff
the proposition were submitted to a re-
ferendum there is no doubt that it
would be adopted by an overwhelming
majority" MI. Cloke is right. The
people of New Jersey are tired of the
present method of electing United
States Senators. 1t offers too good an
opportunity for barter and sale, in
which neither the popular will nor the
public interest is considered in the
slightest degree. Pending an amend
ment to the Federal Constitution
which now seems remote--the best that
can be done is to enact a statue provid-
ing for the nomination of United States
Senators by popular vote, as is now done
in quite a number of States. 1t may be
difficulty to get the Legislature to take
that step, but it can be accomplished if
the people will put on the screws. Agi-
tation will bring it about, as has al
ready been shown by the recent resolu-
ton adopted by the Essex County Re-
publican Committee. West Jersey Press

FORESTRY IN NEW JERSEY.
Commission Appointed by Governor
Stokes About Ready to Begin
it's Work.

New Jersey is about to begin it first
real work as a State in practical forestry.
At.the suggestion of Governor Stokes, the
last Legislature passed ali act for the es-
Enlistment of forest park reservation
and created a State Board of Forest Park
Reservation Commissioners Under the
provisions of the law creating the board
(Chapter AZ, Laws of 1905) the Commiss-
toner's W ere authorized to acquire a fee
estate in any lands to be taken for the
purposes OF forest park reservations, the
acquisition to be accomplished either by
deed, gift or device; or, if necessary, by
condemnation proceedings; and when
the land for this purpose is once acquired
it is to be held for the benefit of the peo-
pie of New Jersey. To the Commission
was given the care, management and pre-
s%eryation of the reserves, and it was also
directed, to quote the exact wording of
the law, ito keep in view, and SO far as
1t can, put in operation, the best method
to re-forest c~ut-over and denuded lands,
to forest waste and other lands, to pre-
vent injury of forests by fire, the admin
lsterlng and care of forests on forestry
principles, the encouragement of private
owners i'll preserving and growing timber
for commercial and manufacturing pur-
poses, and the general conservation of
forest tracts around the headwaters and
on the water sheds of all water courses of
the State"
From the foregoing extract it will be
seen that the law contemplates rendering
thier service to the timber land owners
of New Jersey, and it is to be the aim of
the Commission to carry out the provis-
ions of the statue as fully as tits possible
to do SO. To this end, therefore, the
Commission is asking the newspapers Of
each county to put before their readers
just what the new law is. In this way
it is hoped to reach the owners of forest
or timer facts who would settle their prop
erty to the State for forest reserves or who
would hke to have the aid of practical
forestry in the development oftheir tracts
The information desired would greatly
facilitate the work of the Commission bv
saving the preliminary investigation
necessary to ascertain who have forest
lands to sell. If all such owners to whom
this notice comes will communicate with
the Secretary of the Commission. Will
liam H. Chew, Camden, N. j., giving
the size, character, location and price
per acre at which they would sell their
tracts, the information will be filed with
the Commission, to be taken up at an
early meeting. 1t is to be hoped that all
timber land owners, as we'll as others in
terested in forestry in New Jersey, will
cooperate with the Commission in this
matter.

Discard Your Guns.

There are thousands of young men in
this State who are violating the law and
$ubjecting themselves to the penalty OF
$500 fine or two years. Imprisonment by
carrying pistols and other deadly weapons.
The last Legislature passed an act pro-
viding that "any person who shall carry
any revolver, pistol or other deadly
weapon or frearm or any s%tiletto, dagger
or razor or any knife with a blade five
inches in length or over concealed in or
about his clothes or person shall be
guilty of a misdemeanor, end upon con-
vlction Thereof shall be punished by a
fine not exceeding 5000 or Imprisonment
at hard labor, not exceeding two years,
or BOTH" The young men who are fool
ishly carrying pistols concealed on their
persons and negroes who carry razors in
their pockets would be wise to disarm.

For years past it has been the custom
for st. Louis to have w~ide-open Sundays
ir~regardless of the Sunday laws, but
Missouri elected a Governor last fall,
who not only believes in the morality
Of Sunday observance, but has the cour-
age to enforce the law. The Mayor of
that city and the Sheriff of that county
who were elected by the lawless ele-
ment made no effort to enforce the
law, but Gov. Folk has given them to
understand that the law must be en-
forced. Several arrests were made
last Sunday. Several towns in New
Jersey might be made better if the
state had a Gov. Folk, and Mayors like
MI. Ellis in Camden.

In another column we publish the law
ana purpose of the Forest Park Reser-
walton Commission created by the last
legislature. To a man up a tree it looks
as if the hidden reason for it's creation
is for the owners of thousands of acres
OF pines and scrub oaks to find a pur-
chaser in the state. New Jersey has
lots of forest reserve without the State
purchasing any for a park. The best
way for the United States to pre-
serve its forests is to abolish the
tariff on lumber, so that Canadian lum-
Der a come in free. That will do
much to preserve Jul forests. 1t will
Will break up the lumber trust and per-
NIT all to build homes cheaper, When
homes are built cheaper rents are low

every one who hopes to be a home own

tariff on lumber.

NEXT WINTERS SUPPLY OF FISH

1t may interest those who have not the
opportunity to see for themselves how
it is done to read an account of the way
the summer''catch" is made to supply
our winter wants in the way of sea food
and the following description will supply
the information: Thousands of pounds
of fine fish," writes a summer resident Oh
Point Pleasant, " are daily being stored
in the ~freezers along the Jersey coast for
use in the large cities next winter. The
catch of fish OH the grounds has been
prodigious and many tons of them have
been stored. The fish, frozen solid, are
covered with a glaze of ice to protect them
against the air are packed away until
needed for the market. There is a freez-
er at Point Pleast that holds a million
pounds, and another at Seabright, belong
ing to the same company, of equal capac-
ity. The big freezer at Manasquan that
that was burned, with two million
pounds of fish, last year, has been rebuilt
and is being filled again. There is an
other great freezer at Long Branch.
The fish principally used for storage
at this season of the year are sea bass and
tiuke. Later on weakfish, blue fish, whit
ing and some other kinds are stored.
If it were not for these refrigerator store
house the fish market would be badly
demoralized. At times there would be
such a glut of fish that it would
spoil, while at other times there would
be a fish famine, with famine prices"
By the system pursued the supply and
prices are maintained at an equabfe figure
the year round, and that is a controlling
reason for with holding legislative active
at the behest of " of sportsmen'' which
would sacrifice the interest of the year.
round consumer to oblige the hook and
line fishermen whether for pleasure or
or profit. 1t is claimed that the fish
come out of the ~freezers in winter and
sweet as when first caught. But even it
there were an appreciate deterioration,
the result seems to be the best attainable,
and that regulation, and not repression of
pound fishing is practically all that is
needed to ensure a proper supply of food
fish at reasonable prides during the sea-
son when the meat butcher might other

The killing Of hundreds of men in
battle is wal. 1t is horrible death and

which fifty-six were killed and fifty

1t has been the boast in Camden City
that the census would show a popula-
ton of 100, 600. The claim was based
upon the fact that $4,000 names were
voted last fall. AS the proportion of
voters is about l to 81 of population
Camden should have over 100, 0O0. The
fact that the names voted number l to
about 81 shows that Camden's voting
list needs as much purging as that of
Philadelphia.
