MANY ALIENS
ARE LEAVING
COUNTRY
of Them Sail With
$40, 900, 600. Philadelphia
Adds TO Exodus.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 4.-Out of the
army of nearly 10o.0 600 foreigners that
migrated to their native lands last
month, Philadelphia sent 5000. 1t is
estimated thai before the present ex-
odus ends about 100000 people will have
returned to Europe, virtually forced out
of the country by the recent financial
situation. Assuming these emigrants
AXE 500 each, they will carry from
the country $40, 900, 600.
November was a big month for the
steamship passenger lines of this city,
for the outgoing business was double
that done in 1906 during the same pc
Rod. Last Saturday there went on he
Friesland 800 steerage passengers from
Philadelphia. Earlier i'll the day 400
were sent on their way from Broad
street station; they sailed Sunday.
1t was stated at nj different book
ing stations hat the agents were or
dered last Thursday to stop booking
steerage passengers, since the capacity
of the boats had been exceeded. This
great exodus of fortune" seekers has
never been equaled even in the clos
ing months of the year. The rush from
the mines swelled the number.
When the President Lincoln, of he
Hamburg-American Line, sails out Of
New York harbor tomorrow a new rec
ord for transporting Storage passen-
gers will be established. There will be
on board $500 steerage passengers, 500
above her capacity, and 800 more than
the record breaking load which tina
boat carried away last week.
Beside the money that these foreign
ers send home to their families from
time to time, they carry an immense
amount with them OF the trip. The
army of 49, 900 that left New York Sun
day took no less than 81, $50, 900 to the
old country.

0 COAL AT MINES.
Independent Operators in Pennsylvania
Do It After Vain Wait for others.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Dec. 4~.-Several
OF the Independent coal operators, after
attempts to induce the Reading and some
OF the other big coal companies to take
the initiative In further advancing the
prices of steam sizes Of hard coal, have
raised the prices from fifteen to twenty
five cents a ton at the mines,
The Reading, so far, has declined to
make any further advance in the price
of these sizes, one OF the reasons assigned
being that the last advance of twenty
five cents a ton, made some weeks ago,
had not yet become operative in many in
stances where previous contracts were con-
cerned. With the expiration of most of
these contracts. January !, this advance
will become general, and unless some fall
Ing Off IN the demand is Indicated by thst

COMMUNICATED.

To Whom 1t May Concern: The
undersigned wishes by this means to
make public and emphatic protest
against the practices of certain
young men of Morristown who take
the liberty evenings, and especially
Sundays, to congregate in the lower
hallway of the Parker Building, %
Park Place, and fill the air with
smoke and cover the floor with spit
deliberately turning off the electric
light, that they may have the cover OF
darkness. On one occasion | found
the hallway blocked by the presence
of no less than three ladies CD and
their escorts, who thought it no i'm.
propriety to assemble there. And on
the Sunday just passed, during the
early afternoon a young man whose

On my return from lunch the young
man had departed, leaving cud OF

contained smoking tobacco, and the
floor copiously wet with the liquid his

That that young man was not lodg-

dition was, l confess, due to the fact

FTzGERALD's Legislative Manual
gives some interesting figures in re-
gard to the election last fall, which
are not calculated to inspire the Dem
ocrats with any great amount of con-
fidence in electing Governor next
FALL. The Republican total vote for
the last Governor was 23l, 1868. Last
year the Republican total was 10, 24S,
showing that 81, lis Republicans did
not vote the Republican ticket. The
Democrats have been claiming that
these Republicans voted Democratic
tickets, but that this is not fact is
easily demonstrated Democrats
buoyed by hope in the gubernatorial
campaign, got out the greatest posi-
BILE Democratic vote and showed to-
tai OF 1918. Last year the total
Democratic vote was l66,Sl6 or l0,903
less than in the last preceding Guber-
Material election. Tine truth is that
large number of the Republican
voters felt little or no interest in the
election and therefore refrained from
voting. If the full vote on each side
had been cast the Democrats would
have been beaten by about $4,000 ma
jority as usual. 1t is true that the
Republicans had a majority of 5l,644
in the Gubernatorial election and that
the Republican majority last year was
but ,432, but it was not the Demo-
Gratis who cut down that majority.
There are not Democrats enough in
the State to do this. Ordinary poll
tica prudence and good candidates
should give the Republicans a major
ity above SO, 900 in the State next fall.

also called attention to the fact that
there are not enough chairs in the
counsel chamber for citizens who at
tend. Mayor Bennell offered to- look
after the matter.
Counsel e. X Mills read an opinion
on the Trimmer property situation to
the effect that under present ordi-
nances nothing can be done, but sug-
gested that an ordinance might be
drawn which might secure the re-
moyaI of portion of the unsightly
walls as dangerous, but feared that
even if passed, such an ordinance
would involve the town in law suit.
Alderman Mowery moved that the
counsel prepare such an ordinance.
Alderman Twining objected on the
ground that certiorari proceedings
would Immediately follow and involve
expense. Even if successful only so
much of the walls as the court decided
might be unsafe would be removed
and the unsightlyness continue.
Alderman Mowery thought there
might be an even chance of avoiding
expense and suggested that conference
might be had with the owner. Alder
man Twining declarded that the prop
er time to confer is before an ordi-
dance is drawn or other expense in

SENATOR DRYDEN AS He IS

In all the partisan criticism of SEN
ator Dryden as a candidate. for re-
election there has not been one single
fact presented to affect his character
as a citizen or as a national legislator.
Not one charge has been pinned to
his Senatorial skirts and there has
been nothing except some unfounded
assertions that were disposed of with
in twenty-four hours of their utter
ances. Senator Dryden's record un-
der this friction shines out as bright
as the Shield of Hector.
No Senator from this State has
been more attentive to his public
duties, none has more closely studied
public problems, none has done more
for this State, and the record shows
that none supported as great measur-
es intended for the welfare of the
people.
As citizen of New Jersey he has
done more than any other man for
upbuilding it's material interests and
the City OF Newark is deeply indebted
to his great creative and administers
tive. abilities, which have given to
Newark its best architecture, added
millions to its assessed valuation,
converted the City into an important
financial centre and given remuner-
alive employment for thousands of
people.
AS Republican, Senator Dryden
has been mainstay of the party
organization and the great manufac-
turing intcrestsof New Jersey, en-
ploying 100000 hands, look to him as
their special champion against the
forces that work for their undong. A
patron of art Senator Dryden is one Of
the few men who have given encour-
agement to American artistic talent.
His public spirit and philanthropy
are we'll known. In his private rela-
tions he is gentle, kindly and unas-
Stunning.
In the Senate Mr.. Dryden has won
the highest regards of his associates
and the influence he exerts at Wash
ington is due to the respect and con-
fidence SO well and warmly expressed
by Secretary Taft in his letter TO AS
semblyman Barber. Such a man
stands far above his detractors and he
is conspicuously the man to represent
New Jersey in the Senate for the
next six years.

Those familiar with the thoroughly
efficient ana systemtic manner in
which the affairs of the Morris Coun-
ty Clerks Office have been managed
under the present Clerk need no as
surance that the appointment of
Daniel S. Voorhees, as State Treasurer
will secure to the commonwealth a
thoroughly efficient officer who will
give his time and attention to the
duties of the Office at all times with
an ambition to improve the service in
every possible way. His practical ex-

pre-eminently the right man for the

Clear Havana cigars are made in

Domestic cigars are manufactured
from cUmbinablonS of various kinds of

OUR TRENTON LETTER.


The house of assembly Monday night
defeated the plan Of Assemblyman
Alexander of Union county to permit
% per cent of the members to compel
committee to surrender bill after
the bill had been in the committees
hands for three weeks.
An important measure was introduce
ed by Assemblyman Baker of Hud-
son forbidding foreign banks, saving
societies and like financial institutions
from doing business in this state. He
also introduced a bill providing for
pensions to soldiers, sailors and ma
rines' widows who serve twenty-five
years in any public office.
Assemblyman Wright of Essex con-
tinued his railroad reform movement
by introducing three more bills, one
of which puts trolley roads under con-
troll of the state railroad commission,
another regulates demurrage and stor-
age charges, and the third requires
railroad companies to make reasonable
train connections at their connective
points.
"Open Sunday" Bill.
"The open Sunday bill, which was
presented to serve as substitute to
the bishops bill repeater recently in
troduced, made its appearance Monday
night and was introduced by Assem-
blyman Daab of Hudson. Another
measure was introduced which aims to
authorize Sunday baseball games and
similar amusements now barred by
law on the Sabbath. Mr.. Daab's bill
is in reality a local option measure,
inasmuch as it provides that munich
palities may vote on the question of an
"open Sunday and so authorize it. If
majority vote in this respect is re-
corded, the bill puts the question of
Sunday opening directly up to the
people, and if they vote for such an
innovation it is to be authorized by the
excise board.
1t is thought that the passage of this
bill will be urged by the Democratic
majority in place of the bishops law
repeater. The assemblymen from Pas
sale, Hudson and Essex counties are
expected to make hard fight for this
measure, as the "open Sunday" is said
to be desired in the large cities Of these
counties. 1t will be strenuously OPP
posed by the church and temperance
people, VINO desire no change in the
bishops bill which was enacted by
last winters Republican legislature to
abolish Sunday selling, back rooms
and other abuses of the liquor traffic.
Assemblyman Alexander introduced
bill providing for the building of
women's reformatory. Another bill in
troduced provides for stricter regula-
tons concerning the sale of cocaine.
Petitions from the New Jersey branch
of the Women's Christian Temperance
union were filed in both houses pray
ing against the enactment of any re-
peal of the bishops law.
