TUESDAY MAY 90.
THE FoRDYCE CAMPAIGN.

AT the Dryden shad dinner Satur-
day Col. Fordyce made a statement to
the Newark News man concerning his
campaign in Middlesex. He believes
1t too early to begin active work, but
wshts- auk>shergetio and u~nrelenting
war when the batteries are once OPP
ened. The Newark News quotes Col.
Fprdyce as follows:
"Former Assemblyman Fordyce
spoke freely of the campaign which
he proposes to wage this fall against
Boss Theodore Strong in Middlesex
by seeking the nomination for state
senator against Senator William
Howard Crosby Jackson. He was
ready, he said, to go to work when
the proper time arrived. The condi-
lions in his county were of such a
character that he did not think it
wise to open his campaign until la
ter, but when he did open he was pre-
pared to wage an energetic and unre-
lenting war upon the county machine.
The chances for the reform move
ment in MiddleseX he considered ex-
c%ellent, and thought that the county
would be found in the columns of
the new idea after the primaries"
Naturally Boss Strong puts on a
brave front and says everything is
lovely. He and Senator Jackson are
quoted as follows:
"Mr. Strong and Senator Jackson,
when asked about the situation in
Middlesex, said that all indications at
present pointed to a victory for the
regulars and the denomination of
Senator Jackson"

The citizens of Roosevelt are at it
today in as strenuous a manner as
the president himself could wish. The
beautiful example of the citizens
uniting in one harmonious gathering
and naming a citizens ticket has
been smashed. A rival ticket is in
the field and the fight is on. The
harmonious feeling was too good to
last, but such is human nature.
Here's hoping the best men win. No
matter who is victorious we firmly
believe that the new borough will
prosper and be a credit to the coun-
ty. 1t would not have been true to
its name had it not had a fight on its
hands.

as a certainty. Skirts are very wide
and long, trimmed with lace, or broad
plain or undulating folds of the ma
terial. Where one has an heirloom
in the way of a lace veil, that takes
precedence of all else, but the major
ity of brides wear the tulle veil fas-
tened by a small tiara or orange
blossoms. The Du Barry veil does
not cover the face, but is arranged in
a broad effect at each side of the
head, with a few orange blossoms.
a Fluffs and FurbelOwS.
The popular liking for all sorts of
fiuffs and furbelows is illustrated in
the quantities of light, fluffy mater
ials used. Chiffon and maline vie
with n another in all sorts of fas-
cinating accessories from throw
overs to fichus and Directoire scarfs.
The very prettiest is the full, wide
ruche of maline to match the hat
that makes q pretty face fascinating
and a plain one pretty. A new form
of maline has recently been intro
duced with is actually waterproof,
hence not, at all affected by damp
ness. This is called Malinette, and
wise women are buying 1t and having
their ruches made up. 1t looks ex-
actly like the ordinary maine, costs
about thirty cents a yard, and out
lasts many times anything else of the
sort.

EDITORIAL COMMENT.
Pollution of the Bay.

Governor Stokes will be asked by
the New York authorities to appoint
a commission to cooperate with a
New York commission of five experts
to Investigate a plan of protecting
the waters of New York bay from pol
luton. Mayor Mcclellan has just
approved a Legislative bill for the APP
pointment of the New York COM
mission.
This act was evidently inspired by
the project to build a trunk sewer
along the Passaic, with an outlet ir
the bay. New Jersey has the rights
to- the waters. of the. state, and tho
projected outlet will be in New Jer,
sey waters. AS the sewage will be
treated to remove the solid matter be
fore it is discharged into the bay
there can be no nuisance and nc
filing up of the bay.
A more serious problem is present
ed on the other side of the Hudson
Manhattan sewers are all connected
with the East and North rivers, and
vast quantities of sewage containing
solid matter pour into the rivers ev-
cry day. The sewage from the west
shore is a trife comparatively. In the
matter of Passaic sewage all of it
from Paterson down to Newark bay
that is not deposited in the river bed
is carried through the Kill Vol Kull
into New York bay, which is now
more contaminated by Passaic sew
age than it can ever be from a trunk
sewer.-Newark Advertiser.

The Moderate Blouse Front

,eing so, a heavy fine should be i'm

being SO, a heavy fine should be i'm
posed and the amount doubled for
the second offense.
Arrests should be made on sight.
IT is too late to wait until a shot has
been fired. A rifle in the hands of a
boy is likely to go off any time and
the mere sight of a lad with such a
weapon in his hands should mean his
prompt arrest and heavy fine. 1t is
the only way to prevent such acct
dents as occurred here Friday after
noon.
Recorder Pickersgill has done good
work in clearing the city of the carry
ing of concealed weapons among
grown people, and it is noticeable
that brawls and fights, in which wea-
pons are used, are becoming very
rare. The recorder can be depended
upon to carry out his part. If par
ents would do their duty there would
be little danger. AT any rate. Mr..
Clark's letter is timely and every eff
fort should be made to break up the
practice.

BOYS WITH RIFLES.

The NEWS heartily agrees with
Mr.. A. Clayton Clark, who, in a COM
munication to this paper yesterday,
condemned the practice of boys be-
ing allowed to carry rifles, and sug-
gested that the Board of Aldermen
should take action to prohibit it or,
If it is already prohibited, to have
the ordinance strictly enforced. Fire
arms are too dangerous for boys to
play with. OF course no one is shot
on purpose, but accidents will occur
and they often mean a young life
blotted out and untold sorrow in
some home. One death thus caused
is enough to condemn the practice.
Every parent should realize the dan
ger. No one knows whose boy will
go next.
There should be no letting off cas-
lily the first time, nor anything of the
sort. The lesson has been taught and
any parent who now allows his boy
to handle a gun or rife does so not
only without regard for his W child,
buk for all the childreh his boy is
likely to. c9lie in eontad with. This
