The popular demand for the abolition of the voting machine
found no expression in the Republican platform, as it found no
favor in the Republican Senate. The Democratic House tried to
effect this, but the Republican Senate was obstinate. and the
lobby that had a corps of experts at Trenton held the Senators
up to the mark. What is behind this combination Already
more than a quarter of a million of dollars has been expended
in the purchase of these worse than useless machines, and unless
the Legislature acts promptly the spoliation of the State Treasury
will c-ontnue.-Hoboken Observer.
If the Assembly Investigating Committee could only get at
somebody familiar with the inside history of the lob which
fosted the voting machines on the State of New Jersey it might
turn UP a lot of very illuminating information.

The public curiosity as to the attitude of both candidates
ON this liquor problem is justifable. Voters want to know ex-
actly what they may expect from either when the fight is re-
Inewed before the Legislature. To say that this is a legislative
matter solely is no answer.
How many questions of State government have we that are
not primarily Legislative business ~ Three years ago did either
Gubernatorial candidate take refuge behind the plea that Equal
Taxation wasn't for them to discuss, but that it should be put
up to the legislative candidates. OF course not. The Guberna-
torial candidate is the standard-bearer of his party, and it is pre-
eninenty his place to expound and debate all the Issues.
We are all waiting with more. or less patience to hear
Candidate Katzenbach on the excise question.

Where is that 10000 Democratic majority in Hudson County
going to come from? There is no such honest majority in the
county on the issues as they are now framed and presented to
the voters. Until Candidate Katzenbach enightens them to the
contrary voters of Hudson assume that Democratic triumph means
the ratification of wide-open Sundays. And the f'Jersey City
Journal y is authority for the statement that a majority of the
voters in the county are hostile to such a policy.

Since the people of New Jersey, through the newspapers,
began calling upon the Legislature to make good now the Con
vention promises of both parties, some of the politicians have
developed a great yearning for final adjournment of the law
making body. Possibly it may be true, as Assemb1yman Barber
has said, that the solons are making themselves ridiculous and
ought to pack up and go home. He is one of them, and
what he says might be regarded as expert testimony. But now
that they have tarned so long the public will forgive a little
further delay if the time be utilized to make good on the cam
paign pledges. Turn the promises into acts

Pictures of the nine Governors of States that are in attend
on President Roosevelt in his Western trip show a good
looking body of men. But none are handsomer or suggest a
finer type of manhood than New Jerseys present Governor, nor
than the one who will succeed him when Judge Fort takes the
executive chair.-Paterson Press.
Governor Stokes is clever and amiable he is the pink of
courtesy and cheerfu1ness personihed. He is always ready to
his own comfort to oblige others. But this is the first
time it has ever been suggested that he would have even the
ghost of a chance in a beauty contest. He isn't built
that way. In fact he is very much more useful than orna.
mental and has the consolation of knowing that pretty men are
poor sticks as a rule.

Somehow we can't agree with the New York "G1obe' edi
torial demanding the impeachment of our city recorder for his
extrajudicial conduct i'll ordering the inficton of corporal pun
ishment last Friday upon a wife-beating defendant. A CITY
recorder who can reverse the Court of Errors without submitting
a brief and amend the Constitution without burdening the po-
pie with the expense of a special election is not to be i'm
peached for trifes. In addition to which we have his own
testimony that he is the best city recorder Bayonne evei
had ."-Bayonne Democrat.
That sounds sarcastic, but it really isn't meant to be. New
Jersey is proud of its numerous magistrates who can reverse
the Supreme Court without the tremor of an eyelash, and who
cheerfuny assume jurisdiction and authority beyond anything
given TO them by the statutes or the Constitution. IN.
