in the cultivation of the crops. A
clutivator with very narrow teeth
will be found a most satisfactory tool
for garden work, since it can be run
close to the rows of even delicate
plants without covering or uprooting
them. In order that horse cultivation
may be practiced, it will of course be
necessary to plant the vegetables in
long rows not less than two half
feet apart.

AN EDUCATION
Edward King, of New York, Spoke
in the High School Auditorium
Last Night.

Although the auditorium of the
high school was not filled last night
when Edward King, of New York,
gave his lecture under the auspices
of the Raritan Club. the members are
moi discouraged and blame it TO the
storm
MIR. King took for his subject:
Young Men, and the Evils of Our
Day" He pointed out the fact that
most of the existing evils of the pres
ent time are due to the ignorance on
the people who DO not seem TO want
TO study and educate themselves. He
spoke of the moral evils, the great
political evils, and drew his ideas
from New York and Philadelphia. He
told of the ruttenness OF politics. In
both these places, and said that if the
people would but awaken and educate
themselves TO the fact that they were
power they could help eliminate
the evils
The speaker urged every one TO get
an education and said that if all could
not go to either day or night schools
they should go to the different librar-
les and get books.

GIVES BRUNSWICK
A BIG ADVANT
Assembly District Bill As Introduced
DECIDEDLY Unfair to Perth Amboy.

The bill introduced in the assembly
Wednesday afternoon by Leader Per-
kins providing for the division of the
state into districts for the election of
assemblymen, as told in Yesterday S
NEWS, is manifestly unfair to this
city in the way it provides for Mid
dleseX county's division.
According to its provisions the
county of MiddleseX would constitute
three assembly districts to be COM
psed as follows:
The first district to be composed of
the city of Perth Amboy, the town
ships of Woodbridge, Raritan and
Piscataway and the boroughs of Me-
tuchen, Highland Park and Dunellen.
The second district to be composed
of the city of New Brunswick.
The third district to be composed
of the townships of North Brunswick,
East Brunswick, Cranbury, Monroe,
South Amboy, Madison, South Bruins
wick, Sayreville and the boroughs Of
Milltown, South River, Helmetta and
Jamesburg.
According to this, New Brunswick
would have a man in the assembly ev-
cry year, while this city, with a lar
ger number OF inhabitants and cov-
ering more territory, would only, in
the natural course of political events,
have a local man as candidate about
every three or four years.
The bill was referred to the judi
ciarY committee.

home some time ago and that they
had not often heard of her since.

When Assemblyman Crowther was
asked, this morning, how he viewed
the bill, he said that he could not dis
cuss it as he had not attended the
legislative sessions for the last two
weeks and had thus been unable to
keep in close touch with affairs.
A supreme court decision of sew
eral years ago declared the assembly
districts unconstitutional, but the
court Of errors and appeals has never
passed upon that decision

JERSEY LEADS
IN ALL REFORM
Governor Stokes in Jersey City
Address Declares Honest
Government Has FIOuriShed.

JERSEY CITY, Mar. 16.-Gover-
nor Stokes made a political address
here before the Minnetonka Club,
representing the Republican organi-
zation of Hudson county, last night.
The speech is intended to offset the
one made in this county some Time
ago by Everett Colby, the reformer.
Governor Stokes said:
we are all familiar with the re-
cent disclosure of official corruption,
and how public Office has been made
the means of private gain. No such
scadals have disgraced our state un-
der Republican rule. We fought and
won the battle for honest government
and reforms in this connection which
others sections are today just inaugu-
rating. In the work of reform the
State of New Jersey, under the lead
ership of the Republican party, is
ten years ahead of her sister states.
Nor has this reform been spas
modic or pyrotechnic. 1t has been con-
tinuous. consistent and sincere. 1t has
been progressive as well as remedial.
Every interest of our state has felt
the helping hand.
Every farmer who drives to mar
ket over our good roads realizes that
he is receiving some of the benefits of
good and economic government.
Every institution in the state that
cares for the feeble-minded or the
epileptic or the insane, calls down
the blessings of enlightened charity
upon the humanity of our principles.
Every tenement house inmate
who receives more sunshine, more
air. who has better sanitary arrange
ments and greater comforts through
The wise legislation of our party
knows he is living under good gov
ernment.
Every family in the state whose
children attend the public schools,
whicn are dedicated to education and
are free from partisan control, knows
that the Republican party is giving
the state the best school system at
tAe last cost to the taxpayer,
They are getting daily dividends
from good government.
We drove the gamblers from our
borders and pledged our constitution
to their perpetual Punishment. We
partisanship from our couts,
from our schools, from our state in
and from our state boards.
We make public Office a public trust.
I'VE inaugurated a system of pub
licity in appropriations so that every
citizen may have the books open be-
fore him and know just what his
state spends and for what purpose the
is made.
I'VE have increased the revenues
of the state from S1,962,S19 to $4,-
59S,075, until today, instead of being
to call upon the school
fund to make up deficiencies, we are
able to appropriate out of the state
treasury million dollars a year for
the benefit of our school system and
help to educate every child in the
state.
I'VE are going on and when this
legislature shall have adjourned mea-
sures will have been enacted that will
