Reform in Dem Jersey


ence to mischievous influences at
work. in our Legislative and municipal
circles. There was no m~ud-slinging.
There was no attempt to be spiteful
in narrative. There was n 70 effort On
the part of either Mr.. Colby or MI.
Record to deny the fact that they,
too, at one time, had been pawns up
on the political chess board con-
trolled by corporations; on the con-
trary, they frankly admitted this to
be the case, and by doing so con-
vinced the audience of the accuracy
of their arraignment of the bosses.
The speakers massed their facts,
drew their conclusions and pointed
out the remedy in simple, yet force
full language, hewing absolutely to
the line of truth and the spirit of the
square deal. All in all it was a meet
ing to warm the cookie of the hearts
of citizens bent upon a righteous
cause
Such attendance and enthusiasm
at a political meeting in an off"
year, months before election day, is
tangible evidence of the awakening
of the people to a realization of the
need of reform. 1t augurs success
for the Colbyites in Plaintield-a tri-
umph for the principles of good gov
eminent.

THE NEW IDEA ExEMPLIFIED.

(From the Pla1nheld COurler-NeWS.)
What a terrible shock it must have
been to the regulars" the men
versed in the intricacies of sub-cellar
and backstair political deals which
have abounded in the past, to wit
ness the temerity of Judge Runyon
in appealing direct from the hastings
for support of republicans in his can
didacy for the regular nomination as
member of assembly.
Imagine, if you can, the horror
that such contravention of party ira
dition and custom must have caused
the old guard of the destinies of the
state. this appealing to the voters di-
rect instead of salaaming secretly to
the bosses.
Truly, it was revolutionary, and
yet how simple, effective and pleas
ing in this era of open-and-above-
board dealing with voters.

operate. They often follow such

$1,000 SEA cow.
One Purchased 10y the New York
aquarium l. Dead

New York, Aug. l0-rhe aquarium s
$4,000 sea-cow died Yesterday Of blood
poisoning, due 20 the rifle bullet that
some Floridans fired into her back some
time before the agent OF the New York
aquarium purchased her az Miami Fla,
a little less than two weeks ago.
When the sea-cow arrived at New
York a week ago last Monday she was
taken at once TO the aquarium and put
In one OF the biggest Of the marble lined
pools IN the building Il was while
feeding her that an employe first dis
covered the hole In her back The OH
cials Of the New York Geological So
ciety were notified and three doctors
made haste TO perform an operation.
The manatee was manacled and nearly
a foot underneath the outer hide the
doctors found a 3S-calliber rife bullet.
Death from bloodpoisoning followed.
Although the exact price paid for the
manatee has never been made public,
the figure was reported at 5000. As
she was on exhibition not quite eight
days, the sea-cow. therefore. cost the
city Of New York about 1915 day. The
hide OF the see-cow will b. mounted and
presented 10 the museum OF natural
history. Whether the aquarium will
buy another is nor known. but II one Is
procured, II is certain that Il will not
have a bullet hole IN It's back II the
aquarium can help It.
