half dozen gam bier suspects, arrested
aeveral months ago in raids conducted
by Chief of Police Woodruff, and who
we're believed to be protected by po-
lftioal friends, are again to be placed
on the rack through an order issued
bS Supreme COURT Justice Trenchard

assemble at Mays Landing next Sat-
urday morning.
"a score of witnesses, who appeared
before the grand jury last month. have

pected to order re-hesring of the

The recalling of the grand jury was
made possible by the order given by

May be New Chancellor.

jersey City, Nov. What seemed a
pretty definite rumor among the nu-
merous lawyers who appeared in
chancery chambers to-day was that
Chief Justice William S Gummere
would be appointed by Governor Fort
as chancellor to succeed William j.
Magic, whose term expires in May,
1903. and who will retire, it is said,
on account of advancing years. Chief
ustice Gnmmere's term also expires
next year.
The chancellorship is the highest
judicial honor in the state. 1t our
ranks the chief justieeship. although
the salary is the same, $ll, ZOO in each
case. Chancellor Magic was chief
Justice from March /, 1897, until he
was appointed on May 2, 1900. by Gov
ernor Voorhees, to succeed the late
chancellor McGill.
Another rumor current among the
lawyers to-day was that either ex-Jus.
tice Gilbert Collins or Justice Francis
j. Swayze would be appointed chan
cellor, but it Is doubted whether Mr..
Collins, who resigned from the su-
preme court bench only three years ago
could be tempted to resume judicial
life even by the highest honor within
the gift ef governor Fort.

Malicious Story,

The its which are being published
in various papers as news emanating
from Easson, Pennsylvania, stating
that it has been discovered that Pay
Checks of The Central Railroad Co.,
have been counterfeited, and that the
Company is taking steps to recall the
checks, are absolutely without foun-
dation.
1t is surmised this report was started
for some malicious reason. but its only
effect can be to bring unnecessary an.
noyance upon those people who are
least Informed as to the use of checks
in business.

Big Test,

Clayton, N. j., Nov. 10. To-day
the tests of the electric engine were
probably the most satisfactory OF any
yet. Electric engine No. 10000, de-
signed to pull heavy freight cars, was
given her first trial to-dsv. She de-
veloped speed of seveuty six miles
an hour. at which rate. il is claimed,
she can easily pull fifty freight cars

The interest of the puhic is now
centered in a test to ak place soon,

WILL THERE BE
ELECTION IN MARCH.

81 The consensus of opinion seems to
Il be that the SO O-called Meeker act which
consolidated Spring and Fall elections.
will be repealed by the Legislature
y which convenes in January next.
Those who study political situations
CLOSELY declare that there is no reason
to doubt the repeal of the act. and
Sthat as result municipal elections
will in the future be held in the early
spring.
# The experiment of doing away with
Spring elections has in no wise been
Esucoesstul taking she State as whole.
The complaint has been general that
no good results have followed in elect
ing municipal officers at the same time
bounty and State officials are chosen
The demand is for absolute indepen-
rlence in municipal affairs, and the
next Legislature will undoubtedly
give the people what they want
The bill repeating the Meeker act
will be among the earliest of those
Introduced. Its passage will likely
Ocour early in the session. Should she
Governor sign the act, and he will.
N md the measure takes effect immedi-
ately, there will be an election in all
Of the municipalities in March.
| This makes section two of the new
charter act which has been approved
hU MT
At the first municipal election held
In such cities next after the adoption
of the provisions of this act, there
ehail be elected in such cities, by the
duly authorized voters therein. seven
persons to be members of the City
4 Council of such city" "
@ That means that If the Meeker act
is repealed, BridRetou will select its
new Council in March Instead of No
MEMBER following. But unless the
pharter was amended by the Legisla-
fure, the CouuciImen so elected would
not Immediately take Office. The
oharter says: 1.-The term of office CT
d member of said City Council shall
begin at twelve O'Clock noon, on the
frst day of January next succeeding
bis election, which shall he the date
of the annual neetilg.''
1t is quite likely that if the Meeker
act is repealed d. and BridReton is called
upon to elect its Couucilmen in March,
the Legislature will be called upon to
nmend the charter, making the terms
of Office for Oounoilmen begin on the
first day of April or May following.
Should this be done the government
0f Bridgeton will be under the provi-
sion of the new charter many months
earlier than was at first anticipated.

Thugs Terrorize Women.

Woodbury.. N. j., Nov. 19.-Wide-
spread Indignation to-day followed
news OF the attack by negro upon
Miss Emma Duffield elose to her home
last night. It was one of many recent
similar attacks in the city, and Mayor
Ladd and Prosecutor Rogers have re-
doubled their efforts to land the viii
lains responsible for the crimes. The
attack last night was particularly
bold, as it was made just after dark
ness had fallen and in one of the best
parts of the city. Miss Duffisld suffers
severely from her experience and was
confined to her room all day.
This is the third attack of the same
sort within three weeks in the heart
of the city, and women ale SO timid
that they are afraid to venture out of
their home at night.

EMPLOYMENT OF
THE ITALIANS.

lta'iaps ars not satisfactory in many
respects 10 the manufacturers employ.
Ing them. They are not given prefer
ence. and are not hired at all because
they are especially desirable. Their
employment is recessity. There is
not suff1c ent small felp to man th9
big factories Eere, tence the importa-
tion OF the foreign element.
manufacturer was speaking of the
situation one day this week. without
the Italians. he said, great part of
the big factories here would neoessar-
lily be closed. Every effort had been
made to get American and negro help,
but the supply did not equal the de-
mand and the necessity for bringing
in the Italians was apparent.
The Sicilians we're not at all salts
factory to the employers. They are
bright in their own way; they are
active and energetic, but they cannot
understand single word of English.
They must be informed of the methods
of work. what they ars supposed to
do. and the way to do it, through an
interpreter They have trouble with
settlem ents because they do not under
stand American bookkeeping.
The Italians are paid 81 and $3.50.
The manufacturer referred to declares
that THESE wages were open 70 all
Americans and negroes who would
accept employment. From what the
gentleman said there would be no
Italian kept who could be replaced by
an American.
AS TO the desirability of the Italians
the manufacturer disolaimed respon-
sibility. Disorders, small riots, con-
duct offensive upon the part of the
foreigners, was matter wholly up to
the authorities. The Italians who buy
bear and drink, become disorderly, in
the view of the manufacturer, occu-
pied the same position as any other
violator of tine law and should be sum-
marily dsalt with.
1t is quite tne fact that most people
agree with the manufacturer In the
views expressed. There is no criti.
cism because these men are employed.
Most observing people feel that the
glass companies are up against diff
cult problem in securing small help.
The various methods and experiments
employed by the manufacturers in
securing small help have been watched
with interest, and the great expense
incurred In securing boys is generally
understood. But there ara many who
do not quite understand why these
Ignorant Italians should have privi-
leges that would be quickly denied
American citizens. 5
Americans would not be permitted
to carry firearms in the City Park.
Americans would not be permitted
to live in shs unsanitary, hlthy man
ner these Italians do.
Americans would not be permitted
to buy bser by the case or other quan.
titles on the city streets.
Americans, non residents, would not
be permitted to gun and hunt for
game without license.
Americans would not be permitted
to parade the public streets on Sun
days and make all sorts of hideous and
distraCtipg noises.
Americans would not be permitted
to be carrying concealed deadly wea-
pons, all the time.
just why the Italians ale permitted
to do all these things without him
drance. cannot be conjectnred by the
good people of Bridgeton,

SOME SAYINGS OF
EVANGELIST MORRISON.

How truly Christ has said, "No
man can serve two masters. Many
professed Christians of to-day seem to
have overlooked the teaching of our
Lord. They act as If they oonld serve
Goth the sinful world and the holy
Christ at one and the same time I'm
possible! Those who would be the
Disciples Of Christ must first of all
foIsake all sin, and taxing up their
cross, daily: ~must follow Him in
humbls, efficient service. At the very
beIgnning of true Christian expert
ence, there must be separation from
the world.
The eyes of this generation are
blinded by tile god OF this world.
Seltishness, the love of money, and
reckless pleasure seeking has reached
high tide.
God is forgotten by great multitudes
of our fellow beings, in their mad
rush after the things which can never
satisfy the soul and even if secured,
must soon perish.
I sometimes fear that many OF our
preachers are net fully awake to the
exceeding sinfnlness of our times
Has your atIeu tion been called to
the fact that comparatively few OF the
young men of your beautiful little
city ara devout and earnest Christians?
There is great need of company of
young men devoted to Christ and the
spread of His kingdom. standing In
the marts of business, and in the
churches, living witness of the power
of our Lord to save and keep from sin
We beg that the Christian people Of
Bridgeton unite in earnest prayer 90
God that His Spirit may come in great
power upon large company of young
men, nightly convioting, and regen-
Grating them, and filling them with
His Spirit for His service. God is
able, and willing If we will but con-
stantiy offer TO Him the prayer of
faith. Come and help.
