With reference to the spontane
Gus movement to make him the
national standard bearer of the
Democratic party in 1905, Mr.
Bryan says; - am more interested
in seeing our principles triu mph
than am in the personnel of the
ticket " No one questions the
patriotism and unselfish sincerity
of the man who uttered these words
and it is the prevailing sentiment
that no other man is so we'll fitted
to insure the triumph of Demo-
cratic principles in 1908. The ex-
preston of Tom l.. johnson, Cleve-
lands reform mayor, that
William j. Bryan is the most
inspiring example now living
Of the highest type of American
citizenship" will find universal
echo in the hearts of all true Demo-
Gratis.

can justify the saloon keeper in

with a determined man at the helm

that the saloon is not a bigger lu-

The st. Joseph saloon keepers
last Sunday revolted against the
lid and lifted the top clear off; but
Governor Folk has given them
notice that il they are hunting
trouble they will find all they want.
He has directed the police authori :
ties to arrest every saloon keeper
Just as often as he attempts to
open his place on Sunday. and to
keep right on and on arresting
him, and to seize his wares
to be held as evidence against
him. He says that orders to close
on Sunday must be obeyed and
will have to be obeyed; that the re.
calcitrapt might as well understand
that the fight has not ended, but
has just begun; that every saloon
keeper who violated the law last
Sunday would find trouble when he
attempted to renew his license.

New Brunswick Times:
No truer hero, no more real mar
tyr. ever gave up his life for a noble
motive than George Janeway Howell,
who died because he could not turn
a deaf ear to a mothers plea save to
me the life of my child" Conquer
ing his own pain, risking the conse-
queuces to himself, he rose from his
sick bed, followed the pleading moth
er and saved her little one, but for
the child's life he paid his own. Per-
haps the price RAJ too great: per-
haps the life he saved was not worth
the life that was given for it. Who
can tell? God alone, in his infinite
wisdom, can answer such questions.
But even to our finite minds it is
clear that such deeds of self forget
fulness and sel-sacrifice are the beac-
on lights that help us all to higher
levels of thought and action.

THE NEW FALL STYLES.
Some Trim Travelling Frocks De-

Nice One of Gray Alpaca.

Gowns for autumn wear show more
simplicity. both in make and trimming
but light colors are still favored. and
many of the toilets arranged for travel
ing are Of tweed and homespun in very
light mixtures, and simply relieved with
Q collar and cuffs of velvet in a bright
contrasting tone. or strapped with silk
OF a deeper tint.
Alpaca is much in vogue for the cooler
type of travelling gown, and one or two
charming frOCks for country wear have
been fashioned OF this light and durable
material. A d~ove-coloYed skirt. inno-
cent OF trimming. is set in graduated
tucks. which are quite free at the edge
and give a delightful fullness to the
skirt. There is no lining. but a daintily
frilled petticoat of emerald green alpaca
gives effect to the plain Skirt, which
lust touches the ground. and is slightly
raised for walking. The simple. loose
bolero is lined with emerald satin, and
some white merceriZed braid outlines
the outher edge and breaks into pretty
little scrolls at frequent intervals. \

A deep blue royale in alpaca is effect

with a tiny silver and black Cording

ART OF AWAY.
Modern House Marked by Simplicity
Mistress of To-Day Warned

Ivy her carefully winnowed household

Simplicity is beauty, it is sanitation;
it does away, moreover, with a multi

the things that are worth while. The
charm Of line and color is hopelessly

ones own mistakes and the aberra-

FRIDAY. 9
MACADAM ON STREETS.

The following editorial on the paw
ig question published in the Jersey
City Journal is of much local inter-
est:
Assemblyman Marelli has a bill
pending in the Assembly that pro
vides for macadam pavements in cit
les on petition of three-fOurths Of the
lineal frontage. The bill is house
No. sc and it may be a good bill for
some municipalities, but it is not d
good bill for all cities.
Macadam paVements are cheaper
than any other and are well suited
for country roads with infrequent
travel. When the weather is dry
these roads are very dusty and when
it rains they are muddy. The dust
in a city street becomes suffocating
and it percolates with the air through
every crack and Granny into the
houses, forming an annoyance and Il
source of unnecessary work for house
Keepers. When it is frequently sprin-
killed. the s%prinkIing is expensive and
the result is mud
When the pavement wears out,
which is surprisingly quick in city
streets, where wagons are so fire.
quently turned, the property owners
petition for requirement. and this is
done at the expense of the city at
large. This places an unfair burden
on some of the property, and the
measure of this unfair burden is fully
the entire cost OF the macadan.
though it might be considered that it
would be only the difference between
the cost of macadam and a proper
pavement.
The cost of maintenance and sprin-
king and the cost of the new pave
ment that must replace the macadam
come to much than a good pave
ment's initial cost and there has been
an interval of graduated poor 10 bad
pavement.
Macadam pavement should not be
permitted in cities and if this bill is
to become a law the Hudson delega-
ton should see that Hudson county
is exempt from its operation. The ex-
pertinent has been tried in Jersey
City and found unsatisfactory.
The Journal is both right and
wrong in its conclusions. Everybody
admits that macadam should not be
placed on n business thoroughfare,
the NEWS has referred to State
street many times in this particular,
but for purely residential streets
nothing is better if kept in repair
properly, this can be done at small
cost as the. present heads of the street
department will testify.
Macadam makes a p.a.," appear

One of the Wonders of Physics.

An experienced mechanic who was
asked what he regarded as the most
wonderful thing for general utility re-
piled: 1.-THE tracking of a car wheel is
the, most wonderful thing to me in the
whole range of science and invention.
Here are two rails, uphill and down
hill, round the sharp curves and along
false tangents, and upon them fly at
more than a mile 4 minute, without jar
or jostle, dozen heavy cars drawn by
an engine weighing sixty tons. Passen-
gers realize no danger, yet there is
only the little flange of a wheel be-
tween them and eternity. An inch and
half of steel turned up on the inner
side of the wheel holds up the whole
train as securely to the rails as if it
were bolted there in grooves"

NEGRO SHOT AND BEATEN
Mob Tries to Kill Man Who Assaulted
His Empover.

Pocomoke City, Md, June 13.-Ned
watson, colored, was taken from the
authorities at night by a mob and
shot and beaten. Tuesday after
noon he had murderously assaulted
MS employer, Samuel S. Barnes, near
Kings Creek, Somerset county, frac-
turing his skull and leaving him for
dead. Watson had been in the en-
ploy OF Mr.. Barnes for the past few
months. Watson was caught near
the railway station here about 8
p. NJ, and though a mob bent on
lynching him gathered very quickly
he was hustled to jail by officers.
About 1890 p. m. the officers tried to
smuggle Watson to a train, intending
to take him to Princess Anne for
safety. They were detected in the
attempt by the mob, however. and
their prisoner was, shot and badly
beaten before the officers could get
him back to jail where he is now
safe, but badly injured.
