The campaign of impertinence, intern
rerance and Misrepresentation started
locally by Rev. John L. Ecudder, Of Jer
sey City, during the discussion of the loca
option bill In the Legislature, isnow being
extended by him in a effort to make il
national in its scope. Mr.. Scudder's writ.
ten threat to politically kill Governor
Fort if the latter did not use all his in
huence to pass the local option measure
has now been followed by q letter from
the Jersey City pastor to President Roose-
welt, in which it is made to appear that
the Republican party will sound its death
knell IL the Governor of New Jersey is
made the Presidential nominee at
Chicago next June. II give this note of
warning in ample time, writes Mr.. Scud-
der to the President. "With Governor
Fort In the race the Republican party
will invite defeat"
1t would be mild to refer to the state
ments on which this warning" is based
as exaggerstions The minister tells the
Chief Executive of the nation In effect
that Governor Fort outraged the feelings
of a great majority of the people of the
State of New Jersey by his stand on the
local option question. that he acted un-
wisely; that the overwhelming sentiment
of the Republicans of the State is for
the wiping out of the saloons, and that as
a consequence the Governor has complete
ly discredited himself with his constitu-
ents. Yet no one familiar with the stu
alton, and honest enough to state it with
out bias, will dare to say that these
statements are facts. Governor Fort de-
clared openly that he favored the local
option principle, but that he was not con-
WINGED that the time was ripe to put it
in effect in this State He quoted from
the election returns to show that the
sentiment of the majority of the people
of the State had not been recorded in
favor of local option, but has been en-
phatically shown to be favorable to the
enforcement of the .'bishops' act" and
the enactment of legislation that would
make that stringent excise law enforce
able in every community in the State. He
boldly went before the New Jersey Meth
odist Conference and gave these views,
as he had previously set them forth be-
fore other religious and civic organiza-
tions. and he was publicly thanked for
the unequivocal stand he thus took. He
has demonstrated that he Is friend of
real temperance, and as such has endear-
ed himself to thousands Of people who
are,stsnch believers In the efficient regu-
lation of liquor. traffic and In the lelin-

WHILE the local option bill was not ex-
pected to get through the Legislature this
year, despite the assurances of its advo-
Gates that they only needed few more
votes" for 1t. nobody was looking for its
defeat by the very decisive vote cast on
Tuesday. There were A votes against 1t
and 10 In favor. Assemblyman Buck, who
was attending the NJ. E. Conference, was
absent. and was allowed to cast an affirm
alive vote the next day. making the total
In favor 49, The action of the Assembly
was in accord with the inaugural speech
Of Governor Fort and reflected the desires
of the people as shown by their ballots in
November. The last campaign was not
fought on local option lines. The people
who were so ardent in support Of the
measure have themselves to blame, in a
great measure, for the result. The
threats and bulldozing tactics that they
used made them opposition where they
should have had support. Local option Is
not dead. 1t is bound to come and may

rolls around. Probably candidates for
Legislative Office will be called upon to
define their position on the subject. but 1t
will be free and open field to all and
and there will not be any occasion for q
number OF men, many of them from
outside the state, paid for their work
here, TO tell candidates what they must
do. The man who wants to be a member
of the Senate or Assembly, will, of his
own accord. state openly whether he will
or will not support a local option bill, and
on that statement be nominated and
elected or defeated. And there should
not be any going around the point of what
the term local option" means. The right
to vote for or against saloons by munich
palities is all there is to it. Local option,
with as little verbiags as possible. is what
should be the pledge to be made or re-
fused.

SO, was proven beyond doubt at the NJ E.
conference which closed its sessions on
Tuesday. Local option, of course, was
one of the topics for discussion and the
subject was entered into with more zeal
than prudence. Governor Fort was
quoted, or rather misquoted to such an
extent that he stepped down from the
gubernatorial chair and gave the Christian
gentlemen talking to that set many OF
them to thinking. There are some who
think that Governor Fort acted slightly
beneath his dignity in paying any stten-

Of the ministers, but what he said and the
way he said 1t has won for him the appro-
val OF all classes the state over. Among
those who seemed to take delight In De
