II REELIEF FUND.

The citizens of Perth Amboy have
done we'll in contributing to a fund
for the relief of the stricken city
Of San Francisco. All told, the
amount raised will go far past the
$4,000 mark. The amount received
by Treasurer Harry Conard of the
city fund, which includes the contri-
buttons through the EVENING
NEWS, has reached within a few dol
lars Of $4,000 and when it is realized
that many local lodges have con-
tributed generous sum through their
national bodies, st. Mary's church
has taken up a collection to go to
the relief fund of the city through
Catholic sources, the school children
are to contribute in their own way
and with the individual amounts sent,
it is probable that Perth Amboy's
help is nearer $4,000 than $4,000.
When 1t is considered that our cit
liens are none of them rich, that
nine-tenths of III population are la
boring men, this free-will Offering to
the sufferers on the Pacific coast
means more than 100000 from
Rockefeller and Carnegie. 1t means
that Perth Amboy is ever ready to
assist a brother in distress and that
there is nothing stingy here. Our
citizens have contributed willingly
and gladly and they rejoice at the
great good that is to be accomplished.
Today we publish the list of con
tributors for the San Francisco relief
fund raised in the new borough of
Roosevelt. There, as in Perth AM
boy, the citizens are all working peo-
pie and the total of $732.59 is a
matter of congratulation. The new
borough is starting out well to make
a reputation for herself. Middlesex
cannot help but be proud of the
youngster.

Old But Good Issue.

The chairman of the Democratic
convention of Kansas in his address
to the delegates sounded a key motto
that will have interest in Massachu-
sets and indicates that a united De-
mocracy from the East to the West
and North and South may again be
an accomplished fact. 1.-The people
of Kansas" said he, "send this slo-
gan across the Mississippi valley and
owe the Appalachian mountains to
New England. We are for free raw
material, and we are willing to give
to the laborer of the east free hides in
competition with our hides, because
the beef trust robs us even of the
hair, and then sells the balance to the
eastern manufacturer at a higher and
fixed price, so that the poor are shoe
less. Our Republican congressman
have misrepresented us long enough.
We are in favor of the old fashioned
doctrine as enunciated by Samuel j,
Tilden, of a tariff for ven only.

made. He announced last night that
the sun of t~wenty-six thousand dol
lars had already been given by the
following named persons: Charles
Evans, d. s.. White, A. H. Phillips,
Van Buren, Gifin, and Henry W..
Leeds, $4,000 each, and DR.. w. Blair
Stewart, $1,000.
He stated that the money neces-
sary for the building and ground was
to be raised in the following manner
by three committees, i.e., a young
mems committee of 100, a citizens
committee of 100 and a smaller exec
utive committee.
The work of raising the money is
to stop at 10 o'clock on the night of
i thursday, June 18th.
1t is proposed to get five more
people to give $1,000 each; five per-
sons to give $4,000 each; five per-
sons to give $4,000 each; ten persons
to give $1,000 each; 20 persons to
give $500 each; 20 persons to give
$3.50 each. This will make $4,000.
The other $4,000 is expected to be
raised by the rest of the citizens of
the city and the young men interest
ed in the work.

notify Boss Strong that they are able
to do their own debating down at
Trenton, thank you, and the boss evil
IDENTIFY knows it, for actions speak
louder than words and his action
SHOWS that he and his machine are
scared.
In our news columns today we tell
of the feeling of the people in South
Plainfield. A mass meeting has been
called and a club is to be organized.
They are to wage war on the boss.
This is a worthy object, indeed. Whe-
Their in the republican or democratic
ranks, bosses are not necessary. The
people are too intelligent to be led
about by II man, who throws them
a sop now and then and Uses his po-
litical power all the rest of the time
for his own and the corporations in
terests.
We are told that Colby is coming
into Middlesex next. We hope this
is true. The people are tired of wait
ing and are going ahead of their own
accord. Colby fresh from his
victories in Union county. His en-
thusiasm and square deal, anti-boss
issue is bound to draw a big follow
ing at once. The people are only
waiting for the chance to whoop it
up against all bosses. Perth Amboy
knows the treatment she has received
in the past from the New Brunswick
crowd and she can expect little else
until the New Brunswick boss is de-
throned as Major Lentz was in Essex.
The harvest is ready in Middlesex and

FIoUNDERlNG O

1t is really amusing to read the
New Brunswick Home News on the
Colby matter. A few days ago Boss
Strong's personal organ announced
that it had an inside tip that Colby
was coming into Middlesex at once,
having finished in Union county. But
the Home News tip was defective,
for Colby went into Burlington coun-
ty from Union. In order to square it.
self with its readers it says Colby
was frightened off, believing the time
not ripe her1. Judging from the re-
ports from South Plainfield, com
mented upon elsewhere, the ring or
gan is still ioundering about trying
to keep up appearances while doing
its boss bidding. Its latest break is
about as bad as its apology for pub
fishing the truth about Judge Run
yon, of P~lainfeld, because it hurt the
boss cause.

ELKS FOR NEXT.
YEARS CONVENTION.
Agitation In a New Number Of Cities
Whose Delegations viii Present
Their Claims at Denver in Iuly.

DENVER, Colo, May 12:-Many
of the large cities of the United
States have organized to secure the
Elks reunion for next, year. !. Efhe am
nual reunion of Elks will be held in
Denver next July, and It is expected
ma fully 100000 people will be
here. 1t is. one of the most desirable
gatherings that has ever been assem-
bled in the country. In the city OF
Buffalo last year the bank receipts
we're increased more than two million
dollars during the time the visitors
were In town. The members of the
order always come to the reunion tor
the purpose of having a good time,
and they do so regardless of expense.
Advancement have been made IN
Denver to stop the practice OF RAISING
prices when the Elks are here mold
ing their reunion. This has ben zone
in several other cities, but the CITY
council of Denver decreed that any
business house increasing its prices
while the Elks are here would be
summarilv deprived OF its license and
refused a renewal OF the same. This
annlies TO all amusement enterprises,
hack lines. hotels and places where
refreshments are served. The state
TO Colorado is yearly the recipient of
a large sum of money from tourist
travel, and the city fathers feel that
thev can not afford to have the Elks
go away and say the prices were ex-
tortionate while they were in Denver.
The sum of 100000 has been
raised to make an entertainment
fund for the E1ks while they are
here, and all the luxuries of the oc-
casion will be free. 1t will be the
most stupendous fraternal gathering
that has ever been held in the his
tory of the country.

HISTORIC JAMESTOWN.
When The First Successful Colony
in America Was Established.

A number of congressman and
Washington correspondents recently
visited the points of interest from the
jamestown Exposition grounds to the
historic Jamestown island. In the
party was Jewell H. Aubere, the WE'LL
known Washington correspondent of
the st. Louis Globe-Democrat, who
SAYS of the interesting Genes on the
trip:
Quite apart from the interesting
features of the jamestown EXPOSE
ton as an exposition will be the OPP
portunity afforded by a visit to this
portion of the country to study the
historical points in the immediate
vicinity. Recently | was afforded the
opportunity of visiting James town,
which is but a short ride by water
from the exposition site, and while
en- route listened to a most interest
ing and instructive historical lecture,
during which the points of historical
interest were pointed out 5to me as
we reached them. In a vague way |
had realized that Virginia was the
state in which some of the most in
teresting events in our early history
were laid, but the full historical in
terest of the Virginia soil had never
before been presented so forcibly.
1t appears to me that a visit to the
exposition site, the historic waters
which lie about it,and the points of
interest where the first English col
ony was established would of itself
be an educational advantage for an
American that would be well worth
his while. In addition to the oppor-
tunity for studying colonial history,
the stirring times of the Revolution
airy period found their stage and set
ting here. To look at the remnants
of the old pier where Lafayette land
Lord CORVALLIS in his last campaign
and final surrender, will impress the
mind of American youth more than
any burning of a midnight dip over
tones of historical lore. The location
of the exposition site itself is admir-
| able. Surrounded by the sea and
within such easy communication with
far-famed resorts of the Atlantic
coast, it seems certain that the at
tendance from all parts of the coun-
try will prove satisfactory. If plans
of governmental cooperation, about
which we hear much favorable talk
in Washington, are carried out, the
people of this continent will be given
an opportunity to see the greatest
naval display that has even been
given to any people and the greatest
combination of sea fighting machines
that has ever been floated in any
waters.
