THE fact that George Wildes had filed a
petition to be placed on an independent
ticket seemed to have great weight with
Arthur Collins in aiding him to accept the
Democratic nomination for State Senator,
and he thought he saw ray of light. So
he shut his eyes, crowded the memory Of
his promise to Samuel K Robbins from
his vision and signed his name.

DEMOCRATS do not relish the idea of hav-
ing to vote for an avowed Prohibitionist
in the person of Arthur ]. Collins, and
are trying hard to show that he is not of
that faith. 1t is hard work, however.
The young man will not openly say that
he is not a prohibitionist.

ONE OF the Democratic papers has a
great deal to say about machine" candi-
dates and methods on the Republican side,
and then hoists at the top of its columns a
ticket formed by the shrewdist machine"
manipulators the Democratic party ever
possessed. The ticket referred to was
made and pushed on the convention by
the big five" which the organ says is
carrying the party to destruction. Yet
the organ is hurrahing with all its might
for the candidates and swallowing at one
gulp the one who is Democratic on one
side and Prohibition on the other.

JUDGE GAsKILL was in somewhat of a
quandary on Saturday. He had before
him some men who had pleaded guilty to
charges of illegally selling liquor from
wagons. While he felt that these men
should be punished, he also felt that the
owners of the ''beer arks" should not es
cape. But he did not happen to have the
latter before him, so he fined those who
had acknowledged their transgressions.
In his remarks he said he considered the
beer wagon business a menace to good
government and he hoped all officials
would watch 1t so that 1t would be COM
PEELED to keep strictly within its limits
He sees no reason why the keeper of a
hotel or saloon should be made to paw a
license to sell liquors and also be made to
keep within the law and these wagons be
allowed to traverse the country and sell
whiskey and beer In any quantity In direct
violation of the law. The fact of seven
wagons of this character going In one
week to little village like Marlton gives
some idea of the extent of this illegal
trade. Efforts will be made to secure the
owners of these wagons and if they come
before Judge Gaskill they may make up
their minds in advance that something
will happen.

REGARDLESS of the slurs cast upon
Griffith w. Lewis, Republican candidate
for Assembly. with the intention of show
ing him to be man without mind of
his own, the people with whom he is
meeting for the first time in parts of the
county remote from his home, are dis
covering him to be gentleman of intel
ligence and ability. He is perfectly quail
flied for the position he is seeking and
will be credit to his county. He may
be counted upon to keep his pledges. AS
a manufacturer he has reputation among
his employees and with the trade in gener-
al that is as at least equal to that of those
who would traduce him.

AFTER being nurtured by Republican
office holders for ten years and allowed to
gain livelihood at the expense of men In
the party just as competent and as able as
himself, Joseph Huff has accepted the
Democratic nomination for Surrogate and
and will endeavor to bring defeat upon
the heads of those who have acquiesced in
his being retained in the position of
Deputy Surrogate. 1t is not a case of
beating simply one man but the election
of Mr.. Huff means Democratic exaltation
and will give that party foothold in eff
forts to secure other offices In the county.
It may be all right for Mr.. HUFF to lend

COMMENTING on the statement that Ar
thur ]. Collins, Democratic candidate for
State Senator, pledged support (before the
Democrats caught him with the rosy bait),
to Samuel K. Robbins. a Democratic
paper says that the latter must be scared
if he feels there are not enough Republi-
can votes to elect him. Mr.. Robbins has
no fears on that subject. He will get the
Republican vote and many others. There
are plenty of people who, after making
pledges, after solicitation, not to say any
thing about making them voluntarily,
who have such sense of honor that they
will not disregard their word.

TUESDAY, November 6, will be election
day. 1t is not far off.
Republicans may contribute to Demo
cratic success either by voting the Demo
cratic ticket or by staying away from the
polls.
The Democrats in Burlington county
are making hard fight this year. Success
now would intrench them for terrific
effort next year to elect Governor.
Ask yourself these questions:
How many Republicans are there here
abouts who wish to contribute towards
the resumption of Democratic rule In this
State?
How mauy Republicans are there who
put personal pique or disappointment
above party principles, loyalty and obli-
gations2
How many Republicans are there who
wish to help in the election of a Demo
cratic United States Senator andlthus tie
the hands of President ROOSEVELT
How many Republicans are there who
wish to aid, directly or indirectly, in the
election of Democratic Congressman
and thus swell the number of those who
are now obstructing the plans and policies
of President ROOSEVELT

SOMETIME soon there will be dedicated
on one of the battle. fields of Virginia, a
monument to the bravery of the Twenty
third regiment of New Jersey Volunteers
who took part in the fight at the spot
where the shaft is to be erected. Samuel K.
Robbins is entitled to the credit of getting
aid from this state for defraying some of
the cost to be incurred in this movement.
MIR. Colby. who sought to create such pol
itical changes In this county, tried to
amend the bill SO that 1t would not reach
the desired end, but Mr.. Robbins success
fully carried the project through the House
and Senator Horner fought for 1t in the
Senate. At a meeting of the members OF
the regiment at his home Gen. Grubb
publicly thanked Assemblyman Robbins
for the success of his efforts and alluded
to him as ''the next Senator" with assur-
ances OF hearty support for that position.
Then the serpent came and Gen. Grubb
did eat of the apple, George Wildes took
bite of the fruit and Robbins, his good
work and the promise of support, were all
forgotten. Another instance Of pledges
easily broken.

FOUGHT FLAMES WITH WINE
Italians Used Liquor When Water

WHILE The Frisco FIRE WAS RAGInG
ITALIANS IN LATIN QUARTER
TRIED TO STOP PROGRESS OF
THE FLAMES.
WHILE THE Frisco FIRE WAS RAGING

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, May Am
incident of the fire in the Latin quarter
on the slope of Telegraph hill is worthy
of note. The only available water sup
ply was found in a we'll dug in the
early days. At a critical moment the
pump suddenly sucked dry and the
water in the we'll was exhausted.
One who was not on that hill in the
circle of flame cannot even imagine the
situation. There is a last chance,
boys was shouted, and Italian resi-
dents crashed in their cellar doors
with axes, and calling for assistance,
began rolling out barrels of red wine.
The cellars gave forth barrel after
barrel until there was fully 500 gallons
ready for use. Then barrel heads were
smashed in and the bucket brigade
turned from water to wine. Sacks
were dipped in the wine and used for
beating out the fire. Beds were strip
ped of their blankets and these were
soaked in the wine and hung over the
exposed portions Of the cottages and
men on the roofs drenched the shin
giles and sides of the houses with wine.
And the wine won. All Friday after
noon and until 4 o'clock Saturday
morning those lads of the hill carried
on the fight, much Of the time using
wine instead of water. They saved
their homes.
