EDITORIAL COMMENT.

Paterson Guardian:
On every hand there is evidence
that the politicians intend TO use a
large Doodle fund for the corruption
of the voters on election day. to in
sure the success of the machine-made
ticket in this county.
From the republican county com
mittee daily goes forth an agonizing
cry for more money! Every can
didate on the machine-made ticket
has been touched to the limit, the
argument being used by the polite
ians that the people are aroused this
year, and that The ticket will surely
be defeated unless votes enough can
be bought on election day to Over
throw the public sentiment which
demands government free from the
control of the machine politicians
and other influences which have
brought Passaic county into djsre-
pute.
Camden Post-Telegram:
\ large and creditable turnout
was marshaled by the regular repub-
lican organization in Philadelphia
Saturday night, but as a vote winner
the parade was not worth the S
and trouble. Quaker City voters
have their minds made up and some
thing more than a spectacular street
pageant is needed 10 affect any con
siderable number Of them between
now and election day.
Jersey City journal:
Many Il ship has sailed from a port
and never again been seen or heard
from and friends and relatives OF
those who have passed into the un-
known would give much to have
heard from them, II only to announce
the disaster. Now comes Marconi
and says that $4,000 viii pay for
a long distance transmitter that will
keep any ship in communication with
the shores of the Atlantic. In time
ships will have their telegraph Office
for sending and receiving dispatches
and these may do a profitable bust
ness.
Newark Advertiser.
After the election in New York
city, If, as seems reasonably certain
Hearst shall be beaten, the leading
men OF the republican and democrat
ic parties will confess that they had
serious misgivings as TO the Hearst
candidacy.
What voting strength there really
is back of Hearst cannot be definite
ly ~ascertained. The vote he will get
will come from all political elements
and much of it is unsupported. Nun
icipal ownership is attractive to many
voters, who have eel the enormous
values represented in the public
utility franchises pass into the pos
session of the few. The life insur-
ance revelations will have their eff
feet.

themselves to vote q republican tic
ket will 30 to Hearst. All the dis

Water is not flowing freely during

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 3.
INVITED DEFEAT.

fTSs democrats held a rally in the
FOURTH yard last night and whooped
things ~ for their ticket but that
Jonah, the freebooter, has killed it
from the start. The county wants a
cleaning out and we care not how
good a man Mr.. DUNCAN may be per-
sonally, he is not the II for Il mem
Der of the county commission. Five
new mon are desired and a better lot
could not be picked than those On the
republican ticket. Send the freehold
ors away back and make them set
down.
The fact is, the democratic ticket
offers the only opportunity there is
for the people to show their disap-
proyal of the frecholders' methods.
Mr.. DUNCAN is a member of the pres
emit board and Mr.. QUAD is a former
member. Both are candidates for
commissioners. The people are apt
10 take advantage of their presence
on a ticket this fail to soak ii. The
democrats bid for defeat from the
time they nominated these men.

Hoboken Observer:
A conservative estimate of the
number Of visitors attracted to New
ark Halloween night by the big earn
ival is 200, coo. According to the
railroad returns, $4,000 of these
came from New York and the bal
ance was made up of spectators from
the various cities and towns of the
state and from Philadelphia. All the
roads were compelled to run scores
of extra ears to handle the throngs
and trains were dispatched as fast as
they could be with regard to safety
with all the cars iammed to the
platforms. The trolleys did an equal
ly large business.
Altogether it was a strenuous night
for the railroad people, and yet with
all the rush and crush not a single
fatal accident has been reported. The
most trouble e%xperiencer was that oc-
casioned by the people themselves in
their mad rush for the cars when
nearly similar disgraceful scenes eX-
hibited nightly at the Brooklyn
Bridge terminal in Manhattan were
re-enacted every few minutes at ev-
cry railroad station and trolley APP
proach--
The one conspicuous feature of the
great function was the utter Inability
of the, police TO regulate or in any
way control the crowds. The inca
pacity OF this department, notorious
for its shortcomings, was so glazing
that il is admitted by it's own officers
with but feeble attempt ut excuse.

has Just been instructed by the coro-
ner hat there is IA wide difference
between Il dissection of a body and an
inquest or a view. But no matter
what kind of an examination was
made, there is no warrant for a pros
ecuior interfering with a and
there is doubt of the constitutional
ity Of the law which authorizes a
county physician to act in cases OF
violent or sudden death. The prose-
cutor can have his innings later in
the game, if he is dissatisfied with
the c%oroner's action.
