COMES BACK HARD.

Boss Strong, being afraid to face
the issues in the present campaign,
lodges the questions Col. Fordyce
has put to him and has instructed
his press bureau to indulge in per-
sonalities about those who are taking
an active part in the reform move
ment in this county. One of the fa-
vorite attacks is upon the Prickett
brothers, who publish the New Bruins
wick Press, and whose father is re-
corder in the borough of Metuchen.
In reply to one of these attacks the
New Brunswick Times comes back
at Boss Strong like this:
why does the republican machine
newspaper waste its time in such tri-
vial questionings az to whether Edi-
tor Prickett's father voted for the re-
publican mayor of Metuchen, when
it might ask some such interesting
query as this:
:" Is Daniel Smith, who has been
appointed by favor of Dory Strong's
machine to the position of automo-
bile Inspector, the same Daniel Smith
who was for many years a we'll known
democratic ward worker in the Sixth
and who, meeting Dory n morning
on Bayard street, damned Dory
against the fence of the First Baptist
church, pounded his face to a pulp.
~blackened both his eyes and gave him
a cash over the nose, the scar of
which the republican leader still
earliest
Such a question would revive a
little bit of local history that seems
to be pertinent now, when the worst
thing the boss newspaper can say
about an opponent is that he has
democratic Affiliations"

Time was not long ago when the
mosquito was regarded as a fixture
of nature, a providential visitation, a
natural order of things, that could
not be changed and must be endured.
The only relief was to go to some
place where the mosquito was UNI
known, as mosquito bars and pungent
essences were merely alternatives. A
few years ago the mosquitoes were
blown into Newark by countless mil
lions and could be killed on the walls
of an exposed apartment by the thou
sands. A horse wandering into the
meadows was stung to death by the
insects.
A wonderful change has now been
effected, and when the plans of the
state entomologist shall have been
carried out the change will be made
complete. New Jersey will be freed
from its immemorial curse, and the
long reproach upon her fair fame will
be lifted forever. 1t will then be
necessary only for local authorities
to enforce ordinances in respect to
drainage and the covering of deposit
taries of still water. In this great
result of incalculable benefit to New
Jersey the people of the state will
have cheaply purchased with the leg
i~slative appropriation of last winter
a blessing beyond all compare.-New-
ark Advertiser.

THE PASSING OF THE MOSQUITO

THE PASSING OF THE MOSQUITO.
There can be no doubt in the mind
of any Newarker as to the utility of
the methods adopted for the extirpa-
ton of the mosquito. Ever since the
work was done on the meadows to de-
stroy the breeding places of the pest
Newark has enjoyed comparative
freedom from mosquitoes. The few
that come to buzz and annoy are not
the product of the meadow, but of
the neglected pool and rain barrel, or
are waited on the winds from the
Elizabeth meadows, whikh have not

Winston Churchill, who has ac-
cepted the invitation of the Lincoln
Republican party of New Hampshire
to be it's candidate for Governor, is
perhaps better known as a novelist
than as a statesman, or eve as a pol
itician. And yet we think that one
thing which he has said in his letter
of acceptance of this nomination may
be worth all the novels he has writ
ten, good as they are.
81 have a heart with you," he
said, the perpetuation of the prin-
ciples of American government, and
take the liberty of suggesting that
the broad issue and general platform
should be the non-interference of the
Boston and Maine railroad, or of any
other corporation, in the politics and
government of the state"
Mr.. Churchill may have given more
attention to literature and the arts
than he has to politics. No doubt the
professional politicians of his state,
which is a small one, and therefore,
easily controlled by the professionals,
will jeer alike at his candidacy and
his %utterance. But he has, with the
unfailing instainct of a man who
cares more for the right than for any
political organization, put his finger
on the crying evil in American gov
eminent today.
What he complains of in New
Hampshire is equally true in Ver-
mont. In the other states of New
England, the New York, New Haven
and Hartford railroad is dominant
not only in transportation, but in
political power. In Pennsylvania the
battle for the right centres on the
power of the Pennsylvania railroad
company, and it's allied corporations.
In Kentucky and Tennessee Bel
mont's Louisville and Nashville rail-
road is the political factor. In Geor-
gia, Alabama and Mississippi the
Southern railroad, controlled by Pier
pont Morgan, is the force to which
machine politicians defer. Florida
is divided between the Plant Sys-
tenn and the East Coast Railway,
owned by Flagler, of the Standard
Oil Company. AS for the unhappy
condition of California, under the
hard hand of the Southern Pacific,
that is a matter of common notori-1
ETY..
To go into detail concerning these
railroads would lea a series of
chapters. 1t is enough now to say
that any wise observer of political
affairs in the United States who has
sources of ever ordinary knowledge
must see that the railroad corpora
tons are rapidly proceeding to the
point of owning the government.
This being the case, does DIT seem
an extreme proposition to say that
to aver such a danger 1t would even
be better that the government should
own the railroads.? Mr.. Churchill
steps into the political arena as one
of the new type of public men not so
closely welded to a party name but
that they a put an issue far above
the party which might antagonize it.

1t is really amusing to see the way
the machine newspapers are trying
to explain and belittle the Colby-For-
dyce meetings in this county Tues
day night. But all their attempts
only make them the more ridiculous
for every man, who does not know
from personal observation, has heard
from his n~eighbor that both meetings

FRIDAY, JULY 1s.
THE RISING TIDE OF REFORM.

Following the Colby-Reform meet
ings in this city and New Brunswick
the Newark Evening News, under the
above heading, sized up the situation
as follows:
A wayfaring politician, though a
"regular," can hardly fail to appre-
ciate such evidences of the strength
of the reform sentiment as were man
ifested in Middlesex county last night.
There were two meetings, one in the
city of New Brunswick, "the enemy's
country" the home and the fighting
ground of the "boss." The other was
in Perth Amboy, now the most popu-
lous city in Middlesex county, and
much more intolerant Of boss !
than the county seat.
Both meetings were largely at
tended, that at Perth Amboy being
unprecedented in any campaign. New
er before, at this season OF the year,
have the citizens of that city turned
out in such numbers to attend a po-
Macal gathering; and even when
Speakec Cannon delivered a straight
republican address in New Brunswick
two wears ago in the height of the
uresidelfial campaign, he a but lit
lie larger audience than that which
gathered last night in the same hall
to hear Colby, Record and Fordyce.
Moreover, the enthusiasm was un-
bounded and the spirit of the meet
ipgg could not be misinterpreted.
from S:15 to II pm, the voters,
who were largely wage %earners, lis
tened to the speakers and applauded
their telling points intelligently and
heartily.
The e is no mistaking public opin-
ion when it manifests itself thus
strongly so far in advance of the reg
Hlar political campaign season. Tax
PAYERS and wage earners do not leave
their homes on midsummer nights
and crowd into public halls out of
mere curiosity to hear public speak
ers discuss politics four months be-
fore election day. They do not con-
gregate eagerly and enthusiastically
to hear bosses and bossism denounced
unless they have suffered from both
these evils. They do not throng pub
lie halls with midsummer madness to
listen to the advocates of reform un-
less they feel and know that reforms
are absolutely essential to both pub
lie and individual welfare.
Middlesex is one of the worst boss
ed counties in this state, and it is lit
tie wonder that two large meetings
could be held in one night, in each of
which hundreds of voters welcomed
reform and denounced the boss and
the machine. But Middlesex affords
only a more emphatic example of
what has already occurred in Union,
in Bergen, in Burlington and in Pas
sale counties; only an earnest OF what
will happen in other counties within
the mex. few weeks. Monmouth coun-
fv. h-oney-combed with political cor
ruption and so boss ridden that a
candidate actually elected to office Is
not permitted to serve, is ripe for the
reform movement. Next week Sena-
tor Colby and his associates will move
on Monmouth, and there is every rea-
son to believe that their reception will
be quite as enthusiastic as that which
was given them in Middlesex.
The tide of reform is rolling on,
