The Mosquito Campaign


Although there was no quorum pres
ent at the meeting of the State Con-
ference Committee on mosquito exter-
mInation at the Board of Health rooms
Friday night, the discussion of AS
semblyman Hildreth's bill for State
aid in the great work that has been
undertaken left no doubt as to where
the committee stands on the question.
And there should be no doubt about
the stand of every one interested in
the welfare of the State OH the matter.
The time has gone by when thinking
people laugh at either the object or
the method of those pioneers who have
for several years now fought the mos
quito pest.
In many localities, especially in Els
sex County, they have zone about the
task in a rational, logical way, not by
impossible schemes of driving away
the insects, but by attacking the breed
ing places and destroying them. 1t
stands to reason that if the pests can
not breed they must disappear, and by
the draining and %filling-in of the mea-
dow pools and other stagnant waters
the breeding-places are eliminated.
Very noticeable progress has been
made in this work by Newark and
other municipalities, under the direc-
ton of Professor John B. Smith, the
State Entomologist, and by authority
of the Duf1ield Act, passed last year,
which empowered local health author
tiles to spend money for abating the
nuisance.
MIR. Hildreth's bill goes a step fur
ther, as is shown in the title; "An act
to provide a method of locating and
destroying notwithstanding areas,
authorizing appropriations for said
purpose and providing State aid for
freeing salt marsh areas from mosqui-
toes" The bill provides for investiga-
ton and recommendation as to mo-
squito-breeding areas under the direc-
ton of the State Agricultural Expert
ment Station upon application of
municipal authorities, and for State
aid, to the extent of 20 per cent. in
first and second-class cities, and 40 per
cent. in other municipalities, of the a
mounts appropriated by them for the
work of destroying the breeding places.
The bill carries a total appropriation
of SIC, 600 for the work of investigation
and for State aid.
In view of the enormous importance
OF the work, the necessity of mosquito
determination from a sanitary point of
view and the material value of the
elimination of this summer scourge,
coupled with the demonstrated prac-
ticabillty of the method of eXtermina-
ton, the Hildreth bill should pass
both houses of the Legislature and be-
come a law without a dissenting vote.
When mosquitoes can no longer breed
in New Jersey they will no longer live
in New Jersey. Their disappearance
would be worth untold millions to the
State. 1t is entirely proper that the
State should take a hand in the
warfare -NeUdrk advertiser.

views on railroads and other corpora
tons seem to have carried Mr.. Roose-
welt.
Mr.. Roosevelt will have four years
more in the Presidency, and is under a
voluntary and absolute promise not to
seek it again. A majority of the SEN
ate of the United States will be Repub-
llcan, no matter what may politically
happen in the country, longer than Mr..
Roosevelt will be President. That ma
Jority, if it can be mustered for Mr..
Roosevelt, will enable his views on cor
porations to be made into law. If that
majority can be brought to act against
those as a unit under caucus agreement
and the caucus is the traditional
method of registering Senatorial action
then Mr.. Roosevelt's views will not
he made into law during Mr.. Roose-
velt's occupancy of the Presidency. Re-
publican union on his views is unlikely.
Democratic union in both Houses of
Congress m them is certain. The Re-
puhlicans, by refusing to support his
views, may give n or two Houses of
Representatives to the Democracy.
But if the Senate can be held against
those Houses, the Democratic support
of Mr.. Roosevelt, at one end of the
capitol, will not overcome Republican
opposition to him, at the other end.
MIR. Bryan's views, shared by Mr..
Roosevelt, are resulting IN a Bryanized
Democracy. They are also resulting in
a Rooseveltian Democracy. They have
not yet resulted in or secured the Re-
publican support of the Republican
President. And that is a very signif-
ant fact.
There are two ways in which a Presi-
dent can strengthen his views. One is
by argument and the other is by patron
age. Mr.. Roosevelt's arguments and
Mr.. Bryan's arguments, for corporation
regulation and for Federal control of
them, have not yet favorably impressed
Republican Senators and Republican
representatives MI. IeDDSeNGli Is
pledged to 10 use of the patronage at
variance with the wishes of Republican
Representatives and Republican Sena-
tors from the several states. His argu-
ments have not yet prevailed. He has
voluntarily tied his own hands by his
public promises hat Republican Rep
resentatives and Republican Senators
shall suggest, if moi prescribe, shall
limit, if not control, his use of the
patronage. The Democrats are giving
to him on the subjects which separate
him from his party a unanimous sup
port in both Houses of Congress and
throughout the country and are moi ask
ing him for any patronage whatever.
The whole situation is interesting-and
is mixed. The only facts that can be
distinctly seen comprise the substantial
agreement in views and in tempera-
ment of Mr.. Bryan and Mr.. Roosevelt
on important propositions-with liabili-
ties which the administrations of John
Tyler, Willard Fillmore and Andrew
Johnson wildly suggest. - Brooklyn

Former Deputy Treasurer of Stearns
County Pleads Guilty to
Embezzlement.

St. Cloud, Mimi, Dec 1S.-Another
bomb was exploded in this city when
Charles A. Bernick, for several years
deputy treasurer of Stearns county
who last spring was indicted by grand
jury on seven counts for falsifying
accounts and embezzling county funds
to extent of four thousand dollars,
plead guilty and received sentence of
fine of $500 from Judge Baxter.
Bernick paid the fine at once. The
whole proceedings of the Berniclz case
are said by many to have been ira
vesty of justice in which skilful attor-
neys and influential friends were en-
ployed.
The city is wrought up over the out
come of Bernick's case Bernick is
said to have been able to reimburse the
loss.
It is claimed that the case was rushed
through before return of Judge Searles
who is in Moorhead.
A demonstration of the case is

TROUBLE AHEAD
FOR government
NEW POWERS ARE CONFERRED
ON RUSSIAN PROVINCIAL
AUTHORITIES.
The Action is Tantamount to Dec

Regarded by Many Citizens.

st. Petersburg, Dec. 1S.-A shudder
of horror has convulsed Russia.
The government claims it has given
battle only to the ''red' revolutionists,
but the populace generally believes
that the white terror" has returned.
Already the leaders of the proletariat
organization, who escaped capture
Saturday night at the Economic So
ciety, and even men of the rank of
Professor Milukoff, are in hiding from
the pol ce who are ting them down.
The govern ment evidently antici-
pates battle oval and has made its
dispo sition according
1t fully understands that the prole-
tariat Will give blow for blow in an
swer 10 the wholesale arrests.
The workmen's council and the
League of Leagues, Saturday night,
issued declaration of a general strike
to begin Immediately, and consequent
ly by an imperial ukase, published
yesterday morning, all governors gen.
eral, governors and projects through
out the empire who are cut off by tele-
graph are clothed with almost dicta-
torial powers, being authorized, with
out consulting St Petersburg, to de-
clare a state of siege and, if necessary,
even martial law.
AS most of the provincial authorities
are reactionary officials of the old re-
gime the advantage they will take of
such power to terrorize the populace
can be easily imagined, they being in
position to become petty tyrauts and
wage war each in his particular fashion

state legislatures.
Closely related to this subject will

dent. Zeno M. Host insurance COM

Paying the School Debt.

We are glad that the school board
is paying the debt, which is legiti-
mate one, and had to be contracted to
build our excellent school houses
The school board believes that if a
man is in debt and has money he
shouldpay his debts before he buys a
new suit of clothes, unless he needs
clothes very badly; and the school
board will pay its debt and furnish the
schools with everything really nee
essary to secure as good education as
is given in any of the public schools
of this state or any other state.
When This debt is paid it wipes out
the payment of $500 interest annually
and, $500 every year will purchase
about all the extras" the school will
need. We believe Plymouth has Z
good school board.
