GOVERNOR WAKEFIELD again places himself
on record as being in favor of fair elections in
Maryland and every honest citizen will hear
tiIy approve his last utterances on this subject.
In an interview on Tuesday the Governor
said: II shall insist upon an absolutely fair
election, honest ballot and an honest count.
Since / have been Governor there has been
nothing in which have taken firmer stand
than on the subject of fair elections. My posi-
ton in this respect has been pretty well I'M
derstood and it has not changed. l shall ex-
meet every election official in this State to DO
his duty conscientiously. If it should he
shown at any time that any election supervisor
permitted wrong doing, Iwould promptly turn
him out. whether be be Democrat or Re-
publican. For the welfair of the State it is
necessary for the rights of franchise to be pro-
tected. Istand for honest methods in elections
and 1 will countenance neither cheating nor
bribery in any form, and should such viola
tons of the law be brought to my attention
would not hesitate to prosecute the offenders"
Il is now said that the Governor will, in few
days, announce his candidacy for the United
States Senate,

SENATOR WILLIAM B. BAKER, of Hartford
county, warmly endorses the Republican State
ticket In an interview few days ago he
said 1.-THE Republicans have nominated
splendid ticket. Gathers name is synonym
for honesty and jnstice. His record is such as
to guarantee an ideal administration. The
platform will favorably appeal to every lover
Of justice and right, particularly the plank de-
manding a change in our election laws, so that
every voter, irrespective of party, can easily
mark bis ticket and make trick ballots impos-
sible. During this campaign the Republicans
will not have to make any apologies for their

THE New JERSEY Forest Commission has
just bought 5, 400 acres of forest on the Kitta-
tinny Mountain to add to the State reserves.
This purchase is subject to a cutting lease hav-
ing six Years TO run. During that time the
Contractor has the right to cut all trees over
ten inches in diameter on the stump, but all
smaller ones are to be preserved and fire is to
be kept out The land is rough and very rocky,
entirely unfit for agriculture or for any other
use than that of growing trees. The forest is
chiefly of oak and chestnut with few pines
on the ridges and some ash, tulip poplar,
birch, hemlock, etc., in the swales. II has all
been cut over several times and there are
many ragged old trees as well as thrifty sap
lings and poles. The present cut is mainly for
railroad ties and will doubtless be closer than
any former one, yet that is an advantage to
the forest, since it will leave less slash. How
to rid the forest of this slash of that left by
the former cuttings, and of the old trees that
are in the way, is problem that the State
forester hopes to solve by the time the contract
expires. Fl

THERE IS one element in education that is
overlooked wherein farm life has the advan-
tage over city life. and that is in developing
humane and considerate feeling for animal
life. The dependence Of helpless animal ap-
peals to the youth on the farm and helps to
make good hearted men and women of them.
Boys who are brought up on the streets of
large cities without any personal interest in
domestic animals and accustomed to seeing
horses whipped and abused. have little regard
for the suffsrings of animals, but the farm boy
who has charge of young lambs, calves and
colts, who has a personal interest in seeing
them grow and develop. receives a lesson in
kindness that is never forgotten.

thusiastic support l have been acquainted
with Mr. Gather for number of years and
kaow that he possesses all the qualifications
requisite to make an ideal Governor. Messrs.
Baker and Parran have already proven their
worth as public servants. 1 have no doubt
that Mr.. Urnsr will measure up to the Office of
Attorney General. While 1 like the platform
think this il day when men, and not words,
count. The Republican ticket is platform
In itself and it spells good government and
progress in civic government. 1 feel sure the
ticket will be successful and 1 believe that
Hartford county, as in 1895, will be found in
the Republican column"
