How win You Vote, Senator?

The voters of Monmouth county
are anxious to know If Senator Brown
can be depended on to vote with them
when the issue is brought up in the
senate next winter or if he is going
to side with the corporations. AL
though it is a little early to be ask
ing pledges from the peoples repre-
sentatives, Monmouth voters who
Oppose machine politics have a right
to know where their senators and
assemblymen stand on the question
of a successor to Senator Dryden.
We are of the opinion that most of
the senator's and assemblymen who
will represent the people at Trenton
next winter will be peremptorily ask
ed this question a long time before
the primaries are held.
Senator Brown and other senator's
attached to the machine have an OPP
portunity, meantime, to make good
by coming voluntarily out into the
open.
What the people want to know Is
whether Senator Brown, If the pri-
maries reject the machine in New
Jersey, will stand by the people or
vote with the corporations. The is
sue is not Colby. The point is, Who
shall rule in New Jersey, the people

EDITORIAL COMMENT.
RECORD PropcrIy Rcbukcd.

When all the circumstances are
considered, it must be admitted that
Senator John f. Dryden was not only
justified in declining to meet George
l.. Record in joint debate on the
stump, but also in sharply rebuktng
the corporation counsel of Jersey
City for challenging him in typewrit-
ing and permitting an operator to
afix his own initials to the document
under the Record signature.
Such plebian methods, Mr.. Record
has been in politics long enough to
know, may be good enough for his
ordinary correspondence, but not for
his communications to a member of
the American House of Lords.
Gentlemen of distinction so rare
that they are obliged to address the
common people by proxy through
their s~ons-in-law must be approached
with fitting formality.
Unquestionably the challenge
should have been engrossed in let
tiers of pure gold on white vellum,
undefiled by the vulgar signature of
some common %scrivener.
When it was ready it should have
been entrusted to a squad of retain
ers and, preceded by a herald, borne
in state to the national capitol and
read with due formality in the aug
ust presence of the senator.
That any answer was returned at
all is amazing. Senator Dryden
would have been justified in paying
no attention whatever to the YER
common looking letter that was mail
ed to him. Many of his colleagues
would have had a page thrust 1t into
the waste basket, especially when
they saw that it came from a subject
who not later than the day before
had had the audacity to say of a pub
lie meeting at Asbury Park:
WHY do not the state house ring
give us a law which will permit us to
say whether or not we want John F.
Dryden back in the senate? They
are afraid of the people. II there
was such a law | don't believe John
F. Dryden or any other corporation
candidate would get a dozen votes
outside of his W family"
Observation-Disclosures Kean would
have had the postman dismissed from
office, too, very likely, If he had been
in Senator Dryden's place. Was it
any wonder then that the reply from
Washington was %querelous, thai the
challenge was declined and that in
lieu of the favor. prayed for the SEN
ator returned a useful lecture?
Instead of presenting evidence OF
lapsing dignity, as some have claim
ed, the reply of Senator Dryden's is
new testimony to his magnanimity
and condescension. Only a really
great man would have taken the
| trouble 10 teach a laundering subject
the ethics of communication with the
high and mighty.-Hoboken Obser-

FRIDAY, JUNE 10.
(AN0THER LIE NAILED.

An example Of the dirty politics to
which some of Dory Strong's machine
men are STOPPING in their frantic eff
fort to find something to smirch the
excellent character of Alexander r.
Fordyce, Jr., is shown in the MALL
CIOUS REPORT which is being cir
culated by them.
They refer to him as a '~lusher."
They tell their friends that Fordyce
would be a much stronger candidate
IL he did not bend his elbow so often.
( BY all this they intend to imply
that Mr.. Fordyce drinks heavily.
Some of these low heelers have even
gone SO far as to accuse Mr.. Fordyce
Of being a common drunkard, declar-
ing that he was often unable to keep
appointments during his campaign
for the assembly because he was
sleeping off a stupor.
ALL SUCH STATEMENTS AND
INVITATIONS fAAIsE MALICIOUS,
CONTEMPTIBLE LIES.
They only go to show how hard up
the machine is to find something to
say against him.
The EVENING NEWS has invcsti-
gated these reports and find that Mr..
Fordyce's character is of STERLING
QUALITY. His acquaintance say he
is one of the most temperate and lev
OIL headed men they have ever seen.
Mr.. Fordyce's associates in the Leg
islature at Trenton say thai instead
of being a heavy drinker, he was
Just the other way, and they express
ed their surprise thar a nan in such
a position and with the temptations
placed before him that an assembly
man always has, could CONTROL
HIMSELF IN SUCH AN AELE MAN
NER AS DID MIR. FORDYCE.
Even some of the ring men, who
although obeying the boss, like to see
a clean fight, STAMP THE STORY
BEING CIRCULATED AS AN OUT
RAGE.
Such malicious attempts to injure
Mr.. Fordyce will act as a boomerang
and will do tbs 4 bose cause more
harm than it will injure Mr.. For
dyce's character. This is a year
when the people are investigating for
themselves and they will not have to
90 far to learn the truth as to the
integrity of Mr.. Fordyce.
