Mr.. Heavey all along has insisted that

Frederick Stuhr. of the Twelfth WARD.

The Democratic organiza ton can af=
ford to be magnanimous. The indica
tions are that Mr.. Heavey will not have
more than a handful of the AS delegates
that will make up the county convention.
1t is doubtful if he will have rebresen-
tative from Jersey City. This is not h.
cause he is unpopular. 1t is due to the
fact that while he made thorough cam
yass, he did not advance any good reason
why he should receive the votes of the
Democratic masses in preference to Mr.
Seymour. The organizationafayo Mr..
Seymour Two-thirds of the men who
are back of the Heavey movement are
discredited Democrats who would stand
for any man whose purpose was to de-
feat the party organiza tion or make trou-
Bile for its leader. Mr.. Davis has made
enemies. Alexander Simpson and Dam
iel Y Lewis don't like him. They at
tached themselves to the Heavey move
ment and instantly Mr. Heavey's candi-
dacy began to lose caste. This is what
one hears: 'Heavey is all right, but we
can't stand for the men who are back of
his candidacy Mr.. Heavey win be
beaten at the primaries. His fight was
ashalf-hearted one at most.

AS a consequence of the crusade the
State Banking Department has been
making against the so-called private
banks, which made a speciality of
business with nom English-speaking
residents, particularly the Italian inn
migrants, a law providing more
string mt regulation of such institu-
tions is almost certain to be enacted
by the next Legislature. State Bank
ing Commissioner Watkins and GoyeT-
nor Stokes have been appealed to by
representative Italians and they have
promised to aid in any legislation that
win provide a proper safeguard for the
people. The greatest frauds have
been perpetrated BY the private
bankers in the transmission OF
moneys to families Of the Italians in
the old country According to repre-
sensations made BY the State officials
upward of $00,OoO0O0 is annually sent
home by the thrifty sons of Italy.
The Italian government, because OF
the wholesale manner in which the
people are being robbed passed law to
regulate this transmission OF moneys,
and Cesare Consiglio has come over to
solicit the cooperation Of the Amer
lean States.

The next Legislature in New Jersey
will have but seven Democrats on
joint ballot. Only once before in the
history Of the State was there such a
defeat OF Democratic legislative can
didates as took place on Tuesday. At
ter the exposure of the race track and
other legislative frauds, the Republi-
cans in 1896 elected seventy-four legis-
lators. In that year, however, the
Democrats had but three Senators and
four AssembIymen, while the numbers
are just reversed this time, there be-
ing four Democratic Senators, and
three Democratic Assemblymen in the
Legislature of 1906. There were eight
Senators to elect Tuesday and seven
of the Republicans were elected. The
only survivor of the Democratic list is
Johnston Cornish, Of Warren county.
The Democrats elected only three can
didates. These will represent War
rem, Sussex and Hunterdon counties.
The new members will be in the ma
jority in the House, as there will be
forty-one Of them. One of the great
est surprises of Tuesday was the cleo
tion of the entire Hudson county AS

ONE Of the most important of the
reform movements inaugurated in the
State this year, if not the most inn
portant, is that of Rev. Mr.. Wishart,
OF Trenton, to do away with vote buy

tion with this end in view and has re-
ceived assurances from other parts Of
the State that he will find plenty of
cooperation Nearly everything that
is Objectionable in politics can be
traced to the use of money in Influence
ing votes, both parties are equally cul-
pable and under the general prevail

special advantage. The average voter
loses his interest in politics for this
reason and men who otherwise would
be glad to accept local nominations re-
fuse because they do not care to pay
for votes or take advantage of others
doing SO. This applies not particular
ly to locals elections but extends even
to presidential contests, where mil

The question Of bedding down the
dairy cows during the winter season.
when the cows are 50 closely confined,
is a serious problem recognized By ev-
cry dairy cow owner, The Maryland
station reports carefully conducted
tests with various bedding material,
such as hay, sawdust, straw, shavings,

bedding stun sawdust stands first and
shavings second. 1t recommends the
use OF hay and straw ON farms when
they are to be had conveniently and

purchased 1t is well to buy shavings
