Cole for governor fades away and will
soon be confined to the opposing par

! Aitkin Republican: Candidate Cole
IL a good, clean man. No objection
can be raised to him. He. Is clean
morally, has had a successful ,bust
ness career. showing that he. has first
class executive ability; he succeeded
in the last two sessions Of the legis:
lature in getting legislation enacted
which is Of great Importance to the
people now, showing his genius and
good Judgment in advocating right
measures at the right time; and his
nomination came. to him so fairly
carrying with it no promises to any
man or interest" instrumental IN Sc
curing it, that even his political op-
ponents had no cause for criticism.
On the whole the Republicans Of the
state have no reason to vote for the
Democratic candidate for governor;
they have a candidate OF their own in
whom there is no fault to be found
and If they vote for the Democratic
candidate it will mean that their
fealty to the principles of the Rspub-
ucan party is very weak indeed.

Dryden not in politics in the senate so much
10 advance the interests of all of the people of
New Jersey as he was TO advance certain interests
now generally admitted to be nimica to the real
good of New Jersey and the rest OF the Union.
The efforts OF such men as Mayor Pagan AMI
Senator Colby to secure reform through the Re-
publican party do not appear to have met with any
more than a few local successes. This is matter
for regret, because the Republican leaders were
bad lot Corporations in New Jersey. as in some
other states, have not always tied themselves to
one party but just at present they appear in New
Jersey to be satisfied with taking chances with the
Republican machine
That this is generally recognized is shown by
the Democrats obtaining control OF the lower house
Of the assembly There are only three more
Republican votes in the joint convention that will
elect a senator than the iorty-one necessary for
choice Some Republicans claim Dryden cannot
get forty-onc votes, but there arc machine men
who declare that he will have the votes of all the
Republicans except those of Colby and Fake.
AT any rate the situation is an interesting one
and the outcome will be watched with keen inter
est by Rhode Islanders. The belief here is that
the Republican machine here is dominated by the
same dangerous interests the machine in New
Jersey that Senator Colby and Mayor Pagan are
fighting

A QUESTION FOR MR.. PERRY.

Where did Marsden J. Perry get it
Dispatches say the Rhode Island trolley, cleo
trio light and banking magnate, with an associate
has acquired control OF a S4o,oooooo corporation
Has he disposed OF his interests in the Rhode
Island company is half interest in the new
purchase but a small part OF the fortune he has
acquired since he began his OF exploitation
in this Brayton- controlled state?
Then there is another question. May it not be
that Mr. Thorne is a much bigger element in this
tremendous deal than Mr.. Perry has allowed the
people OF this state TO know?
Mr.. Perry has been wonderfully successful in
most of his financial undertakings. He has both
marked capacity for finance in its latter day de-
velopment and an unusual ability in executive COR
troll
Admitting all that, it does not seem that Mr.
Perry has been frank with the people OF Rhode
Island, who have aided his rise to wealth and
financial power.
He should in fairness, have let them know they
had among them fellow citizen capable of such
splendid performance as that contemplated in
his recent railroad victory.
1t is probably because they were not given
this information that these same fellow citizens
are asking where did you get it?'

ANIMALS FOR BOYS.

The man who would have his son love
the farm and appreciate country life can
give his son no better training than to
give him an animal or two for his very
own.
The boy will unconsciously learn more
from his contact with his pet animals
than he would ever learn otherwise. a
whom lambs and colts and calves follow
will develop into n man who will not only
be able TO care for animals In n compre-
hensive manner. but his character Will
be stronger and sweeter
The father who beats his animals and
yells around the barnyard can only ex-
pect his son TO do likewise. But son
TO such n father will find no pleasure In
whacking animals. He will seek pleasure
In the nearest town.

MAYOR SCHMITZ.

Soon after Eugene T.. Schmitz was elect

tcally unknown, his only fame rested
on the fact that his preparation for tha
office TO which he had been chosen had
been acquired while playing n cornet m
4 theatre orchestra. His official conduct
never attracted particular attention away
from the Pacific coast. When he ran foy
office again q little was heard OF him.
'hu 1t was because of the fact that he
represented organized labor aud tho clos

cred worthy OF mention.

There is now no doubt that the Pullman Car
