money into the MiddleseX campaign
in Mr.. Silzer's interests (why they
should do so is inexplicable), that
money was sen there to buy votes.
Were any votes bought by the demo-
Gratis of M~iddlesex? If so, it is up to
the News to tell where. Mr.. Silzer,
on the other hand, specifies cases of
republican wrong-doing.
The News chagrin and disap-
pointment are probably the cause of
its charges, for there has been a star
Ting variation in those charges.
Wednesday it said that Silzer was
elected as the result of a trade. Next
day it said that the breweries put
$4,000 into the county. Now it says
that $4,000 was the brewery contri-
button to Silzer's campaign fund.
Had there been any brewery money
put into the election it is beyond rea-
son that New Brunswick should have
gotten none of it. New Brunswick has
a saloon for every 100 inhabitants,
and it wouldn't have so many if they
were not well ~patronized. On the 9TH
er hand, much of the opposition to
Boss Strong's rule in MiddleseX has
been due to the free rein that he has
given to the liquor interests. Why
should those interests want to depose
him when they enjoy so many bene-
fits as the result of his power?
The fact is, that Perth Amboy,
where the. Perth Amboy News Yields
an immense and wholesome influence,
sentiment was
strongest, turned the tide against
Jackson. The Perth Amboy News has
| shown the corruption, particularly in
excise matters, that has obtained in
that city,. 1t fought Senator Jackson
before the primaries. It fought him
after the primaries: and the returns
from Perth Amboy are an index to its
power of a moulder of public senti-
ment. 81 i
Facts are facts. These are we'll
known facts. The only grounds.so
far disclosed for charges of brewery
interest in the election are the New
Brunswick News say-so, and the New
Brunswick papers reputation is not
such that that sort of evidence will
have any weight. even in the court
of public opinion.-Trenton True
American.

New Brunswick is sore because she
has no representative in the state leg
i%slature. She should not feel so. All
the small towns should take turns
nominating the candidates. That's
what New Brunswick used to say ia
Perth Amboy a few years ago. But il
doesn't sseem half so satisfactory
when the rule applies. right at home

In spite of reports to the contrary,
there is not likely to be a contest

Senator Ackerman's announce
ment that he will favor Governor
Stokes for United States senator in
