TO FACE EXCISE
CAMPAIGN TO BE MADE ON
LIQUOR QUESTION.
At Least That Is the Way the Situation
Is Shaping Itself According
to Trenton View.

TRENTON, Sept. s0.-with cleo
ton day five weeks away the general
feeling here is that the lineup for the
campaign will resolve itself during the
next four days into a division of those
who are for legalizing the sale of liquor
during, certain hours on Sunday and
those who are opposed to it. Neither
gubernatorial candidate a committed
himself on the liquor issue.
John Franklin Fort, the Republican
standard bearer, has promised that in
his initial discussion of the questions
that are to be considered in the present
contest mex Friday night in Newark
he will do no lodging. Some voters
are waiting to see what he will have
to say on the liquor question, but
others have taken it for granted that
he will support the State convention
platforms Endorsement of recent ex-
else legislation" taken to mean the
Bishops law and have acted accord
ingly.
The word is being passed through the
State hat If the Democrats are sue
cessful In their fight to carry New Jer-
sey this year they will endeavor to en-
act laws that will permit the sale Of
lquor on sunday, eltner ny Iepeaiihs
the sections OF the Bishops law nat
require the enforcement of the Sunday
closing excise statute or by passing new
laws that will enable saloon-keepers to
sell during certain hours on Sunday.

JOKE THIS TIME
W. U. IS CRIPPLED BY A
REAL STRIKE.

One arrest, a request for further po-
lice protection for the Broad street Of
fees of the company and the mailing
| of much n-bound business of the com
pany with special delivery stamps at
fixed to the envelopes, are a Few or
the developments of the beginning OF
the third day of the strike of the mes
senger boys and clerks in the main and
branch offices of the Western Union
in this city.
Every one of the twenty messenger
bows attached to the main office are out.
These include the day and night forces
The day and night clerks are also out,
and Assistant superintendent John A.
Hill. of the New York office of the com
pany. is now in charge of the local
office.
The district about the Four Corners Is
being well picketed by the striking mes
senger boys, and II q boy is seen to enter
the Office he is watched and when he
| comes out several strikers approach him
and If he has been put to work they usual
ly win him over to their side.
The arrest was made early this morning.
Asboy. employed as a messenger in the
place of one of the strikers, had oeeh
sent out to deliver q telegram, and was
met at the corner. he claims, by Ameto
Mattolo, 16 years old. Of ia Garside street,
who attacked MIN anu tore up u ieic5lohi
he was delivering. On complaint of Mr..
Hill Mattolo was arrested and locked up
at the First Precinct police station. on a
charge of malicious mischief. The ar
rest was made by Plainclothesman Nc

sent out with several MESA ges last night

He was given forty-five cents in change

stood. were not delivered. .
The messenger boys, since the operators
strike began August IA, have been maxi
ing smaller wages than they should get,
they say. They are paid two cents a
message and often delivered less than
| fifteen messages in a day. They demand
2S cents instead of two cents for each
message. The clerks went out when they
learned that the operators now working
for the company have been receiving
double pay. They demand the same
recognition.
II was said by the strikers this morning
that one of the women operators at the
Broad street Office of the company volnn-
teered her services as a Mercury" and de-
livered a number of messages yesterday
afternoon and last night. Thu cashier of
the Broad street office also delivered tele-
grams yesterday and this morning.

been employed TO fill the places of the
strikers, hut he had not secured any clerks
to fiji vacancies. He admitted that the
business of the company was badly crippled
and that special delivery boys at the post
office are being pressed into service.

FORT TRYING TO HEAL
HUDSON COUNTY BREACH.
Wishes to Establish Harmony Between
the Faganites and the Dickin-
sonites.

JERSEY CITY, Sept. 30.-Gubernatoriai
Candidate Fort is still at work trying to
bring together, for the present campaign
at least, the rival Republican factions in
Hudson County. He has had conferences
with both the Dickinson and Pagan lead
ers, ana Is thoroughly familiar with the
situation. Mr.. Fort expressed himself to
a friend as hopeful of harmonizing the
two factions.
The convention to nominate a candidate
for Mayor will be held next Saturday
night at Elks' Hall. and the gubernatorial
candidate is DESTROYS that the county con-
vention shall be held on the same night
and in the same hall. He has promised
Mayor Pagan and George L. Record to
attend the city convention and make a
speech in Endorsement of Mayor Faganss
candidacy for a fourth term. He would
also willingly address the county owen
ton. which will be controlled by the Reg
uiars, and thus show that he is not playing
into the hands of either faction.
Thus far the Regulars have shown no
disposition to bury the Ratchet and let
hvpones be bygones. They express their
LOYALTY to the ~gubernatorf6l candidate, but
saw IL would be asking too much to have
them Join with the Faganites, who, they
insist, have been doing everything in their
power to disrupt the local Republican
party. II there is to be harmony. the
Regulars say, it should be brought about
by concessions from the Faganites.
Let Mayor Pagan step down and u
md give some other Republican a chance
for that office" said a prominent Dickin-
sonite tonight. THAT will show that the
FaganItes are sincere and have the interest
in their party they profess. The Regulars
are for Frank Fort to a man, and we viii
support him loyalty, harmony or no har-
mony. That is more thar can be said OF
the Faganites. Their fight is for the
Mavoraity. and they will slaughter the
g,Ibernatorial candidate If necessary 10
attain their end.
The Regulars nave not yet announced a
date for the county convention. One thing
Is certain, and that is that II 1t is held next
Saturday night it will not be in Elks Hall

admirable choice"

In colder climates, where shelter

with the slanting roof; and an open
ventilator should be placed in front,
close to the roof, and never be closed
except in cold weather. The roost
should be placed on a level in the
front Of the house, with sliding or
rolling door in the rear. Only light
enough Is needed for the turkeys to see
the way to and from the roosts. The

Weeds of Value,

American. This fax, the strongest
known, grows wild In marshes. When
1t is cultivated it dwlndles and its fibers
become brittle and valueless.
Indian hemp grows Wild and out Of
1t hasheesh, or keef, is made. Keef
looks like fakes of chopped straw. 1t

Shoes and Spectacles for Animals.
In Bohemia when geese are to be
driven long distances to market they
are shod for the Journey. The method
Of shoelng Is as simple as 1t Is effective
The geese are made to walk repeatedly
over patches OF tar mixed with sand.
This forms hard crust on their feet,
which enables them to walk long dis
tances without becoming footsore.
Even more useful than shoes for
geese are the spectacles worn by the
cows that feed on the Russian steppes,
region where the snow lies for six
months Of the year.
These cattle pick up a living from
the tufts of grass that crop up above
the snow. The sun shines so daZzingly
upon the white surface that many OF
the animals suffered formerly from
snow-blindness. 1t occurred to an in
genious and humane individual that
this situation might be remedied; so he
at once experimental in the manufac-
ture Of smoke-colored spectacles that
might be adjusted to cattle. The re-
suit was successful and the animals
were saved much suffering.
