EDITORIAL COMMENT.

Politicians and candidates for office
are beginning to better appreciate
The newspaper asa powerful factor in
vote-getting. Voters nowadays crave
for argument. Mass meetings are
all right in their way, but how many
people attend them? The hide
bound p%artisans, of course, are there,
but they vote the ticket anyway.
Therefore, the object should be to
breach the man who remains at home
in the evening after his day of toll
in office or factory-the thinking
man who reads his evening paper
carefully, who carefully weighs each
argument, who recognizes it's force,
ifNit has any, Dr. can point out a fall
lacy wherever il exists. 1t is this
class of voters that not infrequently
decides elections in these days when
hide7bound ~partisanship Is the excep-
ton rather than the rule. There are
always enough such voters in a COM
munity to hold the balance of power.
There are only two ways of reach
ing this desirable, discriminating ele.
ment of our voting population
either by personal interview or
through the medium of the press.
The first named would be a physical
impossibility, which leaves the Jews
paper as the only agency which
brings candidate and voter together.

SHOULD DROP THE MATTER.

While the vice chancellor has not
yet decided whether or not the court
of chancery has jurisdiction in the
matter of preventing the local water
board from paying Asbury and James
Fountain $4,000 for about thirty
acres of land at Runyon, the fact
that such a price is entirely too high
has been clearly established. In fact
Vice Chancellor Pitney had some
very plain words for the men who
would thus hand over the peoples
cash.
The citizens of this city have KEEP
posted on the whole affair and there
is hardly a person but who feels thai
to close the deal at the price quoted
would be an outrage. 1t hardly seems
possible that even should the vice
chancellor decide that the court of
chancery has no jurisdiction, the wa
ter board would continue the fight
in the face of popular disapproval.
While it is not known how the
question of jurisdiction is to be de-
cided, it is known that should the
case go against the citizens who have
brought this action, Judge Lyon,
their attorney, is ready to carry the
matter higher, for the people are
thoroughly satisfied that the price
of $15,500 is too high for this city
to pay into the pockets of the Foun-
tains when the actual value of the
land is anywhere from $500 to So
900. Once the case goes into the
supreme court it will hang fire for
a long time awaiting It's turn and that
means that just so long will the mat
ter be kept before the public.
1t would seem as if the best policy
for the water board is to drop the
case no matter which way the decis-
ion is given on the question of jur-
isdiction. 1t is the peoples money
and the people are determined that
1t shall not be spent in this way.
If the land is really needed by the
water department the proper course
is to commence condemnation pro-
ceedings. A commission can fix a
fair valuation on the land and it is
doubtful if any one will raise an OBJ
lection to buying the land under such
conditions. AS for the present deal
It is out of the question as long as
there a%re-courts to fight it in. Vice
Chancellor Pitney has said enough to
decide anyone in doubt about it.

THE HOUSEHOLD.

The automobile has become such a
common. everyday convenience that.
the question of automobile subslst-
ence is a matter of interest. An
Epicure'' writes in Good H~ousekeep-
ing:
Perhaps one may say, why au-
tomobile sandwiches" on reading
the above title. "How do they diff
fer from Sunday school picnic or gar
den-party sandwiches" But 1t is
easy for II who autos and gets hun
CRY and likes sandwiches to answer
the question. The automobile sand
wish differs from its ancestors, or
predecessors, as you will, in that 1T
needs to be more live; it must smack
Of raciness in its flavor, and the
things that make for this element
must be reckoned in making it. Pos
sibly one might say they should hint
| of speed; that would not be so far out
of the way. Tame chicken and ham
sandwiches that we knew in our
| childhood will not do at all for an
automobile jaunt.
In preparing sandwiches for auto
trips, unless they are to be of the
sweet variety. there should always
be a lettuce leaf, thin and crisp, next
to the bread to prevent the dressing
from soaking into the bread and max
ing it heavy. And in this connection
it may be said that romaine is be-
ginnig to be popular for use in place
of lettuce for sandwiches, just as II
has superseded lettuce for salad use:
with a good many.
To make corned beef sandwiches
have the beef cut in very thin slices
and cut in slices of equal thickness
and shape some large sweet pickles
Just a touch of mustard, either tn
French or English, should be sprea,
on the beef.
And since we have spoken hereil
slightingly of a tame" chicken sane
witch, 1t seems to behoove us to sug
gest n of chicken that shall not b
tame, for chicken is a favorite mate
rial for sandwiches with many pee
pie. Have, then, the chicken meal
and after rubbing the chopping bow
with an onion, chop in it the chicke
meat. Season with paprika we'll, sti
into 1t a little chicken stock, and the
a sufficient amount of mayonnaise.
Lobster sandwiches are much bel
ter for having the lobster chopped
Chop it till pretty fine too, quite t
a paste. Stir into 1t mayonnaise,
few drops of sherry, add to 1T a hir
of onion and then spread on the le
tuce leaves. Brandy may be use
instead of the sherry, If liked, an
1t may also be used in making th
chicken sandwiches. Only do not us
too much. A few drops will do jus
what you want.
Chicken livers may be prepared |
this way for sandwiches: Fry in bu'
ter a sliced onion, take out the ohio
and fry, till lightly Drowned, som
