A Foreign Sovereign Responsible For
This English Official.
So long as the sovereign himself pre-
sided at the meetings of the cabinet
there was no obvious necessity for Civ
ing any member of it precedence over
the others. But from the accession of
the house of Hanover the king ceased
to take part in the deliberations of the
cabinet. 1t has been said. indeed. by
modern statesman that. with q doubt
full exception in the time of George
ILL.,, no sovereign has been present at
a meeting of the cabinet since Anne"
The change. like so many other mod
itications which have been introduced
into the British constitution. was the
result of u purely accidental circum-
stance George l. could not speak the
English language. 1t was clearly use
meetings of his councillors when he
did not understand the language in
which their deliberations were carried
on. But when the sovereign was thus
necessarily and habitually absent from
the cabinet 1t became requisite that
some minister should be chosen who
should preside at the meetings and
report its decisions to the king. Thus
the accession of foreigner who could
not converse in English led to one OF
the most momentous changes In the
constitution. The act of settlement
had given England foreign sover-
eign: the presence of a foreign sover-

risk what he might have to say on the
floor of the Senate, although no Sena
tor seemed to pay more than passing
attention to what be might say on any
bill that was pending. 1t would be
stating an untruth TO say that. even as

all. For the other Democratic Sena-

No EOulVOCATlON.

There is neither eQuivocation
nor one grain of comfort for
eq0ivocatloo past, present or flu
tare In the NEST important plank
OF the Republican party in Hun
terdon County which reads as fol-
lows
We declare that. without regard
to political eNpediency. the Re
publican party Of Hunterdon
County favors. as political history
shows it has always favored, the
adoption of a Local Option Law.
The last Republican Senator of
this county voted for the law,
which gave the people the privi-
lege to determine whether or not
they wanted the legalized sale of
intoxicating liquor in this county
and this same law was repealed
by a Democratic Legislature, af-
ter the people of the county had
indicated by large majority that
they did not favor the sale of Ii
quor; and We pledge our legisla-
tive candidates, DR.. William w.
Hawke, for Senator, and Archi-
bald G Smith, for Assembly, to
vote and do all in their power, if
elected, to secure the adoption of
a Local Option Law.
Wasn't Senator Gebhardt en-
tirely familiar with this plank
when he held a conference with
we'll known liquor men, or per-
mitted them to hold a conference
| with him-men who, as every
body knows, have no more use
for Local Option than the pro-
verbal cat has for hot soap :?
Candidates are scarce in New
Jersey who would dare to invite
even so much as the semblance of
playing double.

THEN AND NOW

1t is not at all probable that the
voters Of Hunterdon County have for
gotten that Senator Gebhardt was the
Democratic leader of the Senate in
the session of 1908, or that he was
made the leader by and with the con-
sent of his Democratic colleag ues

cratic leaders of the State, every one
of whom was as earnestly opposed to
Local Option then as he is now. As
the leader of the Senate for his party,
Senator Gebhardt was the chairman
OF the party caucus; but has any voter
in this county ever heard that he ven
tured to offer vote in the Senate in
opposition to the majority vote of that
caucus. II he did no member of the
press or the Legislature, however as.

HIS WORD IS GOOD.

If the editor of the Hunterdon
Democrat had been disposed to
be truthful by assertion and fair

who are interested in the welfare of
the coming as we II as that OF the pres
ent generation, did not see the record,
enough of it is herein reproduced to
enable sensible people to get line on
the kind of man Mr.. Matthews is
and was.
In the second year of his term in
the Assembly-he didn't get busy

intoxicating liquors. Mr. Matthews
voted for il.

while member OF the House, is the
most conspicuous and offensive in SO
far as the Local Option question was
concerned. When the motion was
made to reconsider the vote by which

DON'T BE BOssED.

For more years than some men
of middle-age can remember, it
has been the custom of the Dem
ocratic newspapers to be boss
ridden. So true is this that these
newspapers, it would seem, have
not only become used to it. but
rather like to be bossed. In pri-
vate life, their editors would re-
sent by both word and blow the
dictation of Jim Pidcock. If
there is anything for which the
people are indebted to this boss,
it isn't his gratitude for past ia
vors. He didn't give them the
right of suffrage and they should
not permit him the right to con-
troll their right to vote as they
please and for the public good,
and not for the perpetuation of
