UP TO MIR. HANEY.

Well, well, Charles A. Bloomfield
came into town again Saturday night
and repeated his charges against
George j. Haney. He told the crowd
which attended the meeting that Mr..
Haney offered him a salary of any
sum he might name up to $4,000,
with the empty title of Inspector, if
he would assist the freeholders in
their effort to spend 100000 more
of the peoples money. Mr.. Bloom
field said Mr.. Haney took good care
that no n could hear, and said that
the proof was only his word against
Mr.. Haney's.
He then went on to state that any
one wishing to reach a decision this
way could do SO by investigating the
records of both him and Mr.. Haney.
Mr.. Bloomfield invited the fullest in.
vestigation as to himself. He said
he had never been a member of the
Board of Freeholders; had never
been On the finance committee of that
body; had never been closely associ-
ated with Asbury Fountain, and had
V been on the bridge committee
as Mr.. Haney had. He further said
he had never Soaked" the city of
Perth Amboy $6.25 a ton for 500
tons of coal; had neve been a mem
Der of the water board and urged the
payment of $15,500 for a few acres
of worthless land, and had never
been a lieutenant in a political ring.
He declared that these things would
have to be taken into consideration
in pitting George J. Haney against
himself.
Up to the present it looks as if Mr..
Bloomfield has the better of the ar
gument. All Mr.. Haney has done is
to offer $1,000 if Mr.. Bloomfield
proves his statement, well knowing
that direct proof is impossible. Mr..
Haney's public record therefore
comes out boldly before the people.

PLOT FOR THE PRIMARIES?

(From the Newark Evening News.)
Desperate efforts are to be made
at the coming, primaries to prevent
the followers of the Colby movement
from casting their ballots in the re-
publican boxes. Just how widespread
is this plan is not known, but it has
been openly announced in at least
two counties-Passaic and Bergen.
The following statement has been
made in Paterson and has been COM
mented upon at length in the news
papers, the regular" organs COM
mending it highly:
ut is the intention of the Colbyites
to vote in the republican box at the
coming primaries, notwithstanding
that faction is in the interest of the
democrats. Now under the primary
law any citizen has the right to chal-
lenge a Colbyite and make him take
an oath that he intends to vote for
the regular candidates of the repub-
vote in the republican box"
This move in Passaic county has
been followed by the announcement
in Bergen that zone feature of the
primary law should not be lost sight
ONO person can legally vote in the
ballot box of any other than his own
party. Enforce this law, as all others,
rigidly. Election officers are especial
ly charged with its enforcement
This latter statement causes the Pat
erson Call to declare that ''the 'regu-
lars are not likely to lose sight of
that fact" There is no trying to
conceal the fact that all this talk is

More interesting light was shed
upon the new grand jury at the For

Saturday night when it was stated
that a prominent man in this county
went to Sheriff Church when he was

suggested that Hon. George ]. Cor.

EDITORIAL COMMENT.
1t Is u Profession.


The members of the New Jersey
State Funeral Directors Association,
broke the monotony of regular bust
ness by a jolly shore dinner last
night, at Bayonne, and this morning,
refreshed and in Industrious mood,
resumed the consideration of grave
affairs affecting their profession.
Profession" indeed, for no long
er is the calling of the undertaken a
mere occupation. Hear the words of
the president of the association in
addressing the members: THE I'M
dertakers of New Jersey have ecur-
ed the passage of a law which now
protects the efficient funeral director,
giving him a standing and dignity in
the community which he v before
enjoyed in this state. His work is
now recognized as a profession de-
handing skill, intelligence and in
tegrity."
There is force in this view of the
status of funeral directors. That
they are fully appreciative of the
standing and dignity" of the pro-
fession is evidenced by the gravity

aimed at the new idea men. Moth
ing is being said about efforts to pre-
vent the democrats from voting in
{ the republican boxes. The regulars
are not worrying on that score in the
least. There is no ground, however,
for their claim that they can keep the
Colby men from participating in the
republican primaries. The amended
primary law, in the section provid-
ing for challenges, provides that any
voter challenged shall make oath
that he is a member of the said po-
litical party; that at the last election
for members of assembly at which
he voted he voted for a majority of
the candidates whose names were
printed upon the party ticket of the
said party, and intends to support the
candidates of the said party at the
ensuing election"
No Colby follower need be afraid
OF subscribing to such an oath in case
he is challenged. The new idea
movement is one within the party,
and not outside Of it. The only ex-
pectation of regulars" who have ar
ranged for wholesale challenges of
men known to be in favor of reform
II against boss rule and corpora
ton dictation is to SO delay the reg
lstering of the will of the people at
the primaries. This scheme can be
frustrated, however, by the men who
are working for reform getting out
% the polls early and forcing the
election officers to accept their bal
iots. Underhanded work will not
