CLAMBAkE OF
THE EBLUECOATS

The members Of the police force
enjoyed a clambake in Mckinley
hall, in Elm street, yesterday after
noon, which was about the finest of
any ever held in this city. 1t was
a genuine Rhode Island affair, pre-
ceded by an Indian clambake.
The latter was prepared by piling
the clans on the ground and build
ing a fire on top of them, while the
Rhode Island part consisted of
steamed clans, blue fish, chicken,
corn. onions and potatoes. There
were liquid refreshments in abund-
ance and, after everyone had dined
to his capacity, cigars were passed.
Charles Dietzman and JUnn Cluney
prepared the feast. The committee
Of police proved very efficient. Be
sides the night and day patrolmen,
Chief Burke, Detective Huff, Ser
geants Durham, Mulligan and Nc
Dermott, and Aldermen Dalton, Lar
son, Schultz and Garland were pres
ent.
Piano selections were enjoyed, and
the affair lasted from 8 until s
o'clock.

GOV. FORT GETS
INTO HARNESS
Opens the Republican Campaign
In Hudson County and Makes
a Hit With a Biz Crowd.
THE FIGHT IN THIS STATE

Jersey City, Oct. 9:-Governor
Fort, of New Jersey opened the re-
publican campaign in that state last
night with an hours speech at Elks'
Hall, York and Henderson streets,
Jersey City. The hall was crowded
1T has been said that there Is
apathy in this campaign" he began.
1T didn't look much like apathy, did
it, when the people of New York got
aroused and renominated Charles E..
Hughes for governor? The people
OF this nation have made up their
minds what they are going to do, and
so they are keeping quiet. They
turned down Bryan and don't see the
use now of getting excited"
Governor Fort fell into rhyme in
discussing the democratic candidate
for president. He said:
Bryan is like lightning bug, he
hasn't and mind;
He 'ambles through creation with his
headlight on behind"
THE trouble with Bryan Is that
he sees things backwards" he went
on. 1--WE don't want any lightning
bugs as President Of the United
States. We want a man who sees
ahead and who Is safe and sane at
all times.
THE only argument that the dem
ocrats are using against the republi-
can party is that the government is
expensive. They say it has cost one
billion dollars per year to run it. So
far as | am concerned I am glad of
it. This is a billion dollar govern
ment. This is no kindergarten that
this great United States is running.
We are the richest nation in the
world and we ought to thank God.
Every dollar has been properly ex-
pended and honestly in the running
of this great government"
Governor Fort sounded the keynote
of the republican campaign in the
state as follows;
I'VE have got to meet this excise
question whether we want to or not.
One year ago our state republican
convention declared in its platform
that the republican party had ac-
complished needed reform In excise
Legislation and pledged itself to the
maintenance of 1t. They ran me on
tnat platform. Everybody knew what
the so-called Bishops excise act
meant. 1t was the law, and when the
people get law there are two things
to be done. First, while it is a law
it should be obeyed. Second, if you
don't like it, repeal it. But so long
as it is on the statute books there is
only one thing for an honest man to
do and that is to obey it.

suggested to come within the appro-
priation; and have plans approved
by the State Board ready to submit
at the next meeting" And
That the engineer be authorized
to act in conjunction with the archi-
itect and take up with the lowest
bidders for heating and ventilating
the question of reduction; and Sc
cure revised prices for reductions ac-
cording to plans and specifications. +"

school. When the first motion was
read for the first time Commissioner

reasons. When President Bradley
put it to vote Mr.. Seaman asked for
roll call, which resulted as follows
President Bradley, Commissioner
Arner, Commissioner Moore and
Commissioner Larsenq yes; Com mis-
sioners Seaman and ack, no.

ed to the second motion relative to

ity. He stands ready to meet any

many personal enemies, but lie is too
alert to enable them TO yet together
in the form OF a South American revo-
iujioHary movement.
There are two sides to the Dutch in
ciisnt. 1t appears that while Mr.. De
Reus WAS the representative of the
Netherlands at Caracao a letter from
him was published assniling Venezula.
because OF this publication President
Castro sent him his passports. De
Reus claims the publication complain

his consentto its publication was never
asked.
Venezuela complains that when the
Duteh cruiser Gelderland went to La
