"NEW IDEA" MEN WANT
COLBY FOR GOVERNOR.
Representatives from Hudson, Essex
and Passaic Discuss
Situation.

JERSEY CITY, Aug. 9.-Representa-
'tives of the New idea movement in
the Republican party from Hudson,
Essex and Passaic counties met yes
terday afternoon in the law office of
Corporation Counsel George L. Record,
in the Commercial building, Jersey
City and discussed the ~gubernatorial
situation With Sheriff Frank Som
mer, of Essex, out of the race, the
Passaic and Hudson men could see no
reason why the wayswas not clear for
the acceptance of Senator Everett
Colby, Of Essex, to run at the Repub-
lican primaries.
Mr.. Record thought that the matter
of a candidate should be settled soon,
so that the Republicans Who will run
for delegates to the State convention
could pledge themselves on the primary
ticket to Colby or to some other cam
didate.
AS Senator Colby is inaccessible at
the present time, but is expected home
within a week or ten days, 1t was de-
cided that nothing could be done in
regard to a Candidate until he was
consulted. If Senator Colby is obdu-
rate the delegates of the New Idea
movement ia run unpledged with a
great many of them favoring Justice
John Franklin Fort for the guberna-
torial nomination.

ONLY SLIGHTLY
FELT IN THIS CITY.
No Business Going Through the Chicago
Office Is Being Received at Local
Office of Western Union.

AT the local offices OF the Western Union
Telegraph Company today 1t was said
that the effects of the strike at Chicago
were being only slightly felt and that no
business going through the Chicago office
was being received under orders from the
general o6ces of the company in New
York.
Commercial kilograms for points west
of Chicago were also being received sub
iect to slight delays. Stock quotations, it
was said were coming in as usual, but
over the Postal Telegraph Company
lines.
Little apprehension need be felt for any
serious tie up so far east as this. city, it
was said. However, there Is a probability
of the strike becoming general This
might be easily inferred from what was
said during the interview.

BEES AND BlUEFLOWCRS.
English Naturalist Discredts a Fairy
Tale of Science.

There are few scientific theories
which have enjoyed a wider popularity
than that which ascribes the origin Of
flowers to the relative action OF in
sects. says The London Globe. In the
Origin of Species" Darwin expressed
the opinion that If insects had never
existed we should have had no beau.
tiful flowers, but only such poor flow
ers as are now borne by frs, oaks,
docks and nettles, and it was his beau
tiful theory" that the world is indebt-
ed to the bee for the blue flower Grant
Allen expressed it that flowers have
become blue because blue is the favor.
ite-color of bees" and this evolution
has become classic in the fairy tales
of science. But G. w. Bulman re-
cords in The Nineteenth Century his
experiments on the subject, and the
results of continued watching of bees
in a garden, and he comes to the con.
clusion that ii would be difficult TO
name any color which the bees do not
appreciate just as much as blue; not
that the bee despises blue flowers.
There are blue flowers much visited.
but these are neither more numerous
in species nor more frequently visited
than green, yellow or white. If the
bee is to evolve the blue flower for
man II must not only prefer blue flow
ers, and visit them rather than those
of other colors. but it must be con.
stant in its visits. But this any OBJ
server can see that II does not do,
and VIC can only conclude that the evo.
luton of the blue flower by tho bee is,
in truth, fairy tale" of science.
