SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 2.
OUR FOURTH ANNIVERSARY.

-Four years ago today the EVEN
ING NEWS, then the Perth Amboy
Republican, first appeared under the
present management. At that time
\ the newspaper was little siX-column
four-page daily with about 1900 cir
culation. II was printed in small
building in King street and one lit
tie typesetting machine set all the
type and an old-fashioned slow cylin-
der press printed the edition. Today
the NEWS occupies a comfortable
home, built especially for it's business
in State street. 1t has grown to a
seven-column eight-page, paper with
from fourteen to sixteen pages Fri
day, and the circulation has jumped
from 1900 until it is now crowdlng
the 1000 mark The one little Sim
plex typcsetting machine has given
way to two thoroughly modern Limo
type machines and in the place of the
old Scott press is an up-to-date Cox
duplex flat-bed web perfecting press,
printing, pasting and folding papers
at the rate of 5000 an hour. The
growth of the NEWS has even sur
passed the fondest expectations of its
owners. 1t started out with the mot
to of being independent but not neu-
trail. II is allied with no party or
faction and will always be found
fighting on the side of the people
against all rings and special in
terests. Its aim has been to boom

the fact that it has won the conf

WILL SPEND MILLIONS
RECLAIMINC DESERT SOIL

Great American Desert. His name Is
attached to many of the original maps
of Arizonia, New Mexico and Califor.
MIA. The reports OF his investigations
are valuable contributions to the
knowledge of the arid country and its
possibilities, and have been Of espe-
cial value in the preliminary work Of
the reclamation service.
In 1S9S-1900 Mr.. Davis had charge
OF the photographic work on the
Nicaragua and Panama canal routes,
and his reports furnished much need
ed and important information con-
cerning both plans. He joined the
reclamation service Immediately after
the passage Of the reclamation act,
and since that time has taken part in
all the engineering work connected
Herewith.
Mr.. Davis is man of great indus
try and is enthusiastic in developing
efficient and businesslike methods in
the operation of the service. His
characteristics are clear judgment
and sound common sense, and these,
combined with thorough understand
ing of the principles Of engineering
design, fit him for the responsible
post to which he has been appointed.
His promotion meets with the un.
qualified approval of all the engineers
OF the service, and Is regarded by
them as reward for faithfulness and
efficiency.

politicians and lobbyists to guessing.
When members of the senate and
house call to see him on official busi-

In whispers, but makes them talk out
loud so that everybody within earshot
can hear what Is going on. Western
senators and representative are es-
pecially displeased with this new dis

go there to confer with him usually
have business that they do not want
everybody to know about, at least un-
til they have secured what they want,
but Judge Ballinger is proceeding
upon the hypothesis that public busi-
ness is everybody's business, and so
he insists upon all classes Of visitors
speaking in tones that plainly convey
the meaning of their words to all
parts of the room he occupies. To

who have objected to his tactics the

PRIVATE CAR GUESTS
FEAR LAWS IRON HAND

n UT in the city of st. Paul, Mimi,
" there is a company of estimable
young persons who are sitting up
nights wondering whether they are
going to get into the clutches of the
interstate commerce commission.
They have violated the rate law, and
stand to be fined from 500 to $4,000
apiece IL they should have the bad
luck to be convicted. It is case Of
accepting free transportation, and un-
der circumstances which were de-
lightful when the breach of the law
was committed, but have lost some
thing of their glamor since 1t has been
discovered that 1t was misdemeanor.
AS the interstate commerce COM
missioner has heard 1t, a prominent
official Of the st. Paul got up a private
car party for some of his friends
among the younger set of st. Paul
society. The law exempts from the
prohibition of free transportation rail-
road men and their families. This
