FOR t

According to one of the candidates
nominated at the republican city con-
vention Thursday night, the placing
of Jens X. Jensen at the head of the
ticket was a bid for the Danish vote.
In a special dispatch to the Newark
Evening News, published under 4
Perth Amboy date line, last night, is
found the following brief description
of the nominee for mayor: "Jensen
is an architect, who was named to
harmonic the Danish voters" AS
the local correspondent for the New
ark News is a nominee on the same
ticket with Mr.. Jensen, he would con-
fer a favor upon the voters if he
would point out any other candidate
who is placed on the ticket for the
purpose of catching any particula"
kind of vote. If this sthe kind of a
campaign the republicans are carry
ing on, they may wake up to the fact
that the, people are not going to be
caught by any such bait.

EDITORIAL CONN ENT.
Do Not Favor Evangelists.

The recent action of the Minister
ial Union of Trenton will cause in
telligent and conscientious church
members throughout the state to do
considerable serioussf thinking II
was proposed to have Torrey and Al
exander, the revivalists, come to
Trenton to hold a series of meetings.
The ministers gathered to discuss the
proposition and it was decided that
the scheme was not advisable. The
cost oil the necessary buildings would
be too great, and the expenses in
Cured in maintaining the meetings
would be very large. Further than
this, the local clergymen concluded
that they could do as good work
themselves as the e~vangelists, with
out the attendant excitement and eX-
pense.
A series of revival services were
held in several of the cities OF this
state in the winter of 1908. Las
winter. it will be recalled, a great re-
vival work was planned and carried
on in Newark, Paterson, Elizabeth,
New Brunswick and other cities, I'M
der the leadership of Chapman, Bed
erwolf and men of great evangellstic
powers. In point of attendance tney
were remarkably successful, and the
membership of a number of churches
appeared to be greatly enlarged
through their influence.
But the Trenton ministers, a body
of men as earnest, as pious and as
intelligent as any similar body in the
state. do not favor Torrey-Alexandef
meetings. They have undoubtedly
received from minister's elsewhere a
careful and conscientious summary OF
the lasting results of the revival ser
vices of the past three years, ana
their conclusion is that by steadfast,
earnest work they can do just as Wen
as the professional ~revivalists.
Undoubtedly this will coincide with
the views of not a few ministers u
side of Trenton. Without wishing 10
| disparage genuine evangelistic WORK
or true re vivals, they have Deen
forced to the conclusion that tn aver
age of morality and religious sent
ment has not been permanently
saised in their respective clues
through such services as have peer
held and but few of the churcnes
have reaped the reward of a larger
nermanent membership. If there Is
anv general conclusion to be reached
in view of the decision of the Irenton
ministers, it is that, in the decene anu
orderly pursuance Of their enosea
work, churches and pastors usslIIy
obtain more satisfactory results tnah
|lare likely to follow preconcerted ar
ranaements with evangeiisfs; Y !

It is now up to the people to decide
Both political parties have held their
congressional, county and city con

field and the two sides are lined up
ready for the battle of the ballots the
sixth of November.
The usual campaign arguments

each party will tell why they are the
only ones who will properly serve the
people, but they are only fishing for
your vote.
All the Offices to be filled, from con-
gresham down to excise commission
er and coroner, belong to you. 1t is
for you to say who shall fill these po-
sitions.
No man can be congressman, state

jority of the voters say so. This is
where you play your part.

OCTOBER 20.
ELECTIVE OR APPoINTIvE?

The interviews with some of the
prominent men of this city regarding
an appointiye pr elective school
board, upon which the people are to
vote this fall, which are now being
published in the EVENING NEWS,
gives an idea of the popular opinion
on this subject.
At present one school commission
er is elected from each ward, makiT
a board of six members. UndFsthe
appointive system the co%mYhssion-
ers are appointed by the pSayor and
there will be nine of them.
Under ordinary ffcumstance it is
doubtful if hs@eople would vote to
deprive tho9selves of selecting their
own scho91board, but the manner in
which t1e school affairs have been
carried on, the petty quarrels, the
deadlDeks and the numerous Other
hi9ffrances in school work in this city,
bas so disguised the great majority of
veitizens that it is probable that they
Will vote for an appointive board by
a large majority.
N this is done greater care than
ever\must be taken in choosing a
mayoN Under the appointive system
a good mayor means a good school
board and a poor mayor means even
worse than we now have. This means
that the mayor must be independent
ep5ugh to choose the best men for
the school board regardless of party;
he must be a man who is not likely
y to be under any obligations to the
school board in his business pursuits.
If the people vote to change from
the elective to the appointive method
they do SO in order to lift the school
board to a higher plane and place 1t
above petty politics. They will ex-
pect only men of the higher standing
in the community to be named. Perth
Amboy needs such a change, and it is
to be hoped the citizens will not fail
to express their opinion on the sub
ject at the approaching election.
