Mr.. Howell,s Statement.

NEW BRUNSWICK, Mar. 23:-
Congressman Howell, when seen at
his home last night said that he has
no personal objection to the reap
pointment of Theodore Strong as a
member of the State Board of AS
SCISSORS. Il only returned from
Washington Thursday night, where
| was on business pertaining to the
immigration commission. was
called up on the phone and asked il
/ would go over with some gentle
men to call on Governor Stokes and
| gladly consented. We talked oye1
conditions in MiddleseX in a general
way and also discussed Mr.. Strong's
disappointment. We did not ask any
assurances of the governor and he
did not make any.
The delegation is not opposed tC
Mr.. Strong personally, but is opposed
to his methods: to his dictation with
out consulting the leading men of the
party. | believe that they desire that
the local policy of the county should
be decided upon by a committee
rather than II man. The governor
seems favorable to Strong. | believe
You can't say that we went to Tren-
ton to have Mr.. Strong ousted, but
to discuss the situation
AS to the plans of the immigra-
ton commission the congressman
said that President Roosevelt has
not yet named his member of the
commission, and that the commits
sion has organized.
Some of those who went from this
city said today that they thought the
outlook favorable to the turn-down
of Strong. The governor is under
stood to have asked whether the
delegation merely wanted Strong de-
posed as leader or whether they OPP
posed his disappointment on the
State Board of Assessors. The dele
cation is declared to have told the
governor they wanted both.
Later, it was put to the governor
this way: The delegation had no OBJ
lection to the governor giving Strong
the job If he wanted to, but if he
did re-appoint him the people would
think it was an official endorsement
of Strong's methods and it would be
impossible to carry the county this
fall. 10 sl1Ys
1t is said that the governor gave
the delegation a little encourage
ment just as they were leaving when
he asked that If he should refuse to
re-appoint Strong whether it would
be received with a great blare of
trumpets, fireworks and brass bands.
The governor was assured that there
would be no undue celebration and
that the word would be received
quietly.

CHARGE BY OVERSTREtT
MADE AGAINST THE PRESS
Indiana Congressman Declares News
papers and Other Periodicals Have
Combined with Railroads to Defeat
Postal Legislation.
Publishers Press.1

Washington. Feb. 16.-Charging a
portion of the press of the country
with seeking an alliance with the
railroads to defeat the proposed postal
reforms, Mr.. Overstreet, (Rep. Ind.,)
chairman OF the house committee on
postoffices and post roads, today
brought to a climax two hours
speech in support of the postoffice bill.
IF l had time," he explained, Il
would be glad TO inform this house
upon some methods which have been
adopted by some periodicals, daily and
otherwise, which have stimulated and
started upon their hellish methods for
the purpose of defeating action pur-
posed by the postal commission.
Il think the great volume of the
Anne rican press should be exonerated
from any criticism which l have just
made in reference to some. | believe
in the intelligence, the influence and
the high purposes of the press. But
until that press as a whole, can give
ear, at least, to fair and reasonable eff
forts, we can never hope for final ac-
ton upon this great problem.
