highest point of hatred and excited
disgust by. the cruelty of the scene
and the horror which they knew must

The sight of their favorite Prince
Conrad raised the highest hopes, not

army of CORTLAND itself. 1t had long
been a standing toast in every guard

knight, Conrad. that hero without

PAPER TRUST PROFITS.

The international Paper Company is
the corporate name of the Paper Trust
which has seized upon the production
of white paper and is squeezing the life
out of the publishing business in the
United States. This monopoly shows
in it's annual report just published a
gross income Of nearly $22, 900, 900. There
is a surplus of nearly $1,000, 900 and
there was an increase last year in the
plant amounting to $2,S75, S96. This
trust has nearly doubled the price of
white paper and its exactions bear hard,
o only upon newspapers, but book
publishers and the printing business
generally. The cost of white paper is
beyond all reason and the trust is able
to maintain it's exorbitant rates be-
cause a tariff duty protects it from for
eign competition, which alone could
bring relief.
A supreme effort will be made at
the next session OF Congress to ave the
tariff duty on white paper repealed,
and the trust will use some of the mil
lions it has wrung from publishers to
pay a lobby at Washington to block re-
peal. The existence. of such a trust,
sheltered by a tariff duty, is more of a
threat against the general tariff system
than all the arguments and activity of
gress should wisely afford relief from
iniquities of this kind by a judicious
change in the tariff. If this is not
lone the whole tariff system may be
overthrown.

MANIPULATING THE MACHINES.

A charge by the Paterson Guardian
that Secretary of state Dickinson has
manipulated the placing of voting ma
chimes in Paterson by direction of local
POLITICAL managers to prevent the split
ting of party tickets is not extraordi-
nary. Dickinson has been doing that
selfsame thing in other places and for
the same purpose. He attempted to
place machines in certain districts in
Ocean County designated by the man
ayers Of Senator Shinn to negative the
party opposition to Shinn and was re-
strained only by threats.
Dickinson has put the machines to
the same use in the Jersey City Mayor
atty fight. They are set up in Democra-
tic districts to hut out the Democratic
vote for Pagan. New Jerseys Secre-
tary of State tramples upon the morali-
ties and decencies of life and in his
official capacity he does not hesitate to
use his opportunities to cripple popular
suffrage. But what can we him of a
voting system that is capable of being
so foully misused? And what must we
think of legislators like Wakelee, of
Bergen, who fastened this abominable
system on the State at an expense al
ready of above 5000, 900?

LAST WEEK OF THE CAMPAIGN.

On Monday will begin the last week
Of the political campaign, and the two
principal candidates, who have been
keeping up such a strenuous pace since
they were nominated, will be on the
home stretch and running neck and

If they are not physical wrecks when
the campaign closes next Saturday
night they are men of exceptionally
tough fiber.
The week will begin in uncertainty,
and much will depend upon its devel-
opments. Usually about this time in
the State campaign tables of majori-
ties that are more or less accurate are
made up. but all the political prophets
are at fault this year, and tabular esti-
mates have been postponed from day
to day pending a clearer light on the
situation in the State.
In the last week of the campaign the
efforts of party managers are mainly
directed to searching out and strength
ening the weak places that have been
developed. So while the two Governor
candidates are e~xhausting their last
reserves of nerve power the party
committees will be It work night and
day repairing fences, correcting errors
and closing the lines for the final
struggle at the polls. Probably the

tion in New Jersey will be Republican
or Democratic.

THE NEW FISH AND GAME DEAL.

All h fish and game wardens in the
State will next month go out of office
with the old Fish and Game Commission,
which has peer bounced by a legis-
lative act. Their reappointment will be
discretionary with the newly appointed
commission. Since the new law was
passed great pressure has been brought
by politicians and others upon the new
commission to retain certain wardens,
as well as Protector Stratton, and 1t is
said that several wardens who have
lone good duty and are thoroughly
capable are to be replaced by new men,
the proteges of politicians. The war
dens to be dismissed haven't got a po-
litical pull.
There is now an earnest movement
developing among the many gun and
fishing club organizations in this State
for a real and general reform in the fish
and game laws and in the system OF
administering them, and if the new
State commission abuses its authority
in the way suggested the commission
will be put on the defensive in the Leg.
lslature against a combined attack
The reappointment of Protector STRAIT
ton, who has made his department sucf
an expensive joke upon the State, would
be an outrage, and so would be the re-
tention of wardens who have not ever
made a p~retence of earning their sal.
aries or who have simply lain in wal
resident gunners after they had slaugh.
tered game in the State.
