DON'T Be TOO PREVIOUS.

In it's editorial on the governors
message the Trenton Times says:
The position taken by Governor
Stokes on these two important ques-
lions. supplementing the recent state
mont of Chairman Briggs, who spoke
for the New Jersey republicans,
leaves the Pagan fac
zion without a reasonable eXcus for
existence, and ought to force the agi-
tators into a declaration that their
thinly disguised purpose has been TO
advance the political fortunes of a
few ambitious Individuals :
Perhaps the Times had better wait
until OF sees what the Legislature will
do with the governors suggestions"
It is one thing for II man to sug-
gest and quite another for a body of
men like the New Jersey legislature
to carry out those suggestions.

COlumbia's Attitude
Toward Sports
By NICHOLAS MURRAY Blu

BY NICHOLAS MURRAY BUTLER. President OF Columbia University
HmAS HE students of Columbia have been cruelty misled in the
matter of the recent action of the university council by the
differences drawn in the public press. The council has
simply made recommendations which it believes will help
the present situation. The resolutions did not say Intercollegiate sport
was to be ABOLISHED. None of my colleagues is opposed to sport,
but wants sport more general and participated in by more of the stu
dents. 1t should be chiefly for exercise, amusement and recreation.
Why should it not be the case that we have three or four hundred
students playing football INSTEAD OF THE FEW who make up
our teams? H .a AWE
/ have appointed two committees. one of representative graduates
and the other composed of members of the faculty, who are equally
representative, to see what steps should be taken toward the ends of
which I have spoken, to study the situation and to determine whether
the step has been wise or unwse.
There has been no attack on student liberties, and we will take no
constructive steps WITHOUT THE SUPPORT OF THE
STUDENTS.
1T is UNFORTUNATE THAT THE PRESENT ACT WAS CON.
sTRUED AS REPREssIvE WHEN 1T WAS MEANT TO BE AIMED
TOWARD EXPANSION.

that in such cases as the famous
Philippine decision the Judges have
been impressed emphaticallv with The

theory OF our government is that ex-
ccutive, Legislature, and judiciary
are separate and independent.
One Of the hardest arguments made
by those who believe ia an elective
judiciary is that if the executive APP
points judges il will influence them.
10 the debit side OF Mr.. Rooseyelt's
record lie his many bad judicial ap-
p%ointments and his firm belief that
his business includes dictation to the
bench. One might suppose that once
he put the Santa Fe case into legal
hands he might allow the law to take
its course. That in theory is the
kind of government under which we

REORGANlzlNG DEMOCRACY.

The Elizabeth Times believes that
the democratic party in New Jersey
is to be re-organized throughout. The
Times thinks so because the Union
county democracy has endorsed the
statement of John Moody, of Cram
ford, by electing him chairman of the
committee.
It is probable that the party
throughout the state will have to
have something more than this to
arouse it. The Times says.
The Union County Democratic
Committee last night placed itself
on record, the first political %organiza-
ton to formally do so. so entirely and
enthusiastically in sympathy with the
plan to reorganiZe tho democratic
party in the state. The election of
John Moody as chairman, the en-
dorsement of the principles enunci-
ated in the latest county platform,
and the general spirit Of. the meeting
last night, all pointed to the exist
ence among the leading democrats of
Union county of a determination to
make the most of the opportunities
now afforded the democrats of New
Jersey to strengthen the influence of
the party organization in this com
monwealth.
ut is highly creditable TO the mem
bers of the county committee to have
shown such independence, such fear
lessness and foresight. As this paper
stated a few days ago there was abb
.solutely no evidence of any personal
differences. There was never more
harmony in the committee than there
is just now. The selection of its
various officers was in each instance
unanimous, and while the county
committeeman appreciate that they
have an enormous task ahead Of
them. they also re1l.&a Thai they

A NEW CHARTER.

A few days ago we quoted the
Bayonne Times as stating that the
new common council of that city
started the new year by taking ac-
ton toward getting a new city char
ter. We recommended the same ac-
lion for the local Board of Aldermen.
Now comes Paterson with the same
movement on foot. The following is
a part of an editorial which, under
the heading Push 1t Along" appear
ed in the Paterson Guardian last
night:
The Guardian is glad that the Tax
PAYERS association went on record
last evening as being in favor of a
new charter for Paterson, and the
tone of the discussion shows that the
guiding spirits of this civic %organiza-
ton appreciate the necessity of Sc
curing legislation that will make it
possible for Paterson to get better
government.
Now that the initiative has been
taken. the movement should be fol-
lowed up with vigor. Considerable
work is involved in the preparation
of the amendments which are neces-
sary to give Paterson a proper char
ter, and in those amendments the
dominant note, of course, will be gov
eminent by commissions. 1t will be
wasted effort to secure legislation for
a few commissions; the idea should
be embodied in charter provisions,
which will be binding in the future,
and not subject to frequent change
by legislative enactment"
Why not Perth Amboy get in line?
This city is growing as fast, if not
faster, than any other city in the
state. In 1910 we expect to have a
population of $4,000. The charter
this city now has was made for a
country town. Perth Amboy cannot
afford to be held back by this dead
weight. Let's have a new charter
along with other progressive cities.

When Wealth Costs Too Much

By M. JU5SERAND. French Ambassador to the United States
MODEST competency is necessary for a fully developed life,
f% but a very modest and, especially in this rich and immense
Il country, a very ACCESSIBLE one. Happy those who do
not inherit ready made wealth. Those who do lack at start
ing a most useful training; they miss AN important pleasure, which is
TO RISE. 1t is difficult to rise when you start from the top.
If in your hfes journey wealth comes in your way, do not spurn
it., All 1 mean is, don't cramp your better self, and especially don't
spurn your neighbor to get at it. 1t is not worth so much trouble
certainly not worth the slightest particle of remorse. So far back as
the time of Alexander, Aristotle observed: THE man who makes
wealth THE OBJECT OF HIS LIFE must resign himself to a life
of ceaseless trouble and struggle"
Anyhow, if wealth comes honorably to you, have it; to the honora-
BILE mind it will be profitable. He will dominate it, NOT BE DOM
MATED BY IT. But never forget that it is not the thing which de-
cdes either the happiness or the usefulness of a life. Washington
was rich and Lincoln was poor. Both were equally useful to their
country.
The possession of wealth had nothing to do with the result for the
result was due to the nature of their souls and the quality of their
hearts.

THURSDAY, JANUARY IL.
"A GRANn-nPP0RIUNlIY.'

AT the meeting of the Chamber of
Commerce Tuesday night there were
read the names of several manufac-
turing concerns contemplating chang
ing their location. These NJ were
SEN to the Chamber of Commerce
with the idea of getting these con-
Germs to come to Perth Amboy. Here
is a big opportunity that should not
be lost. No stone should be left I'M
turned to get all and at least one, of
these plants for this city.
We hope every member of the
Chamber of Commerce is a member
of the Perth Amboy $4,000 League"
They should be and in that case
something more than a letter will go
TO these concerns which are contem-
plating moving. unless they are too
far away.
If a determined effort was made to
bring every industry here hat is
thinking of moving, there would be
no doubt but that the population of
this city would be $4,000 when the
census is taken in 1910.
Charles Macmillan, the secretary
of the Chamber OF Commerce, is en-
thusiastic in the work and it is GER
tain that if the matter is left in his
hands the advantages of Perth Am
boy will be Ven set forth by letter,
and two or three of them, if neces-
sary. seIsss
But tleae is lfothing like a person
al interview ard II any of these firms
can be reached at anywhere within
a reasonable time and expense. a
committee of one, two or three men
should, by all means. wait upon the
heads of these concerns and endeavor
to persuade them to locate here. Get
them to visit Perth Amboy and look
over the ground.
Work. Talk Perth Amboy. They
are the ~watchword and motto Of the
Perth Amboy $4,000 League" and
they will bring the $4,000 if they are
lived up to.
The Chamber of Commerce should
have a fund set aside for the eXclus-
i've use of an industrial committee to
pay the expenses of such committee
in its efforts to bring factories here.
Some good, live hustling is needed
and that is what the Perth Amboy
$4,000 Leagae is fer.

noble ends, and an object which is
becoming more popular each day.
The reorganization spirit has

marvellous rapidity. 1t is manifest
that the true democrats of New Jer-

Perth Amboy evening news., 1906-01-11

The following from the Jersey
City Journal regarding the hydrant
tax proposed in this city is interest
ing:
The Perth Amboy Water Board
proposes by ordinance to charge wa
ter rents against every house owner
on streets provided with water mains
whether the water is used or not and
the board is relying on the act of
1872 for its authority. Perhaps if
the board were to consult the town
counsel he might tell them that a
court decision practically wiped that
law out of existence years ago. If the
local Board of Health passed an or
dinaDce f%orbidding the use of wells
it would be acting within its power
and the householderS would have to
connect with the water main. In a
town that sees 10000 as Il possibility
before the national census of 1910
the ground is probably so contain
mated that well water is not safe.
An ANALYSIS would soon settle the
question and clear the way for the
Board of Health"
