Makes Us ALI Happy.

The immense crops this year and
the high prices generally prevailing
mean prosperity for the farmer and
for everybody else. That fact will
help us realize how true 1t Is that
agriculture Is the backbone Of this
country's wealth even as it is OF most
countries. When crops are poor and
prices low all the nation suffers with
the farmer, and when there is the
fortunate combination Of large crops
and good prices the whole nation
rejoices with him because it shares
in his prosperity. 1t means more
engines and cars to move the crops,
and that means greater ACTIVITY and
more employment in railroad shops.
1t also means an increased purchas-
ing power for the farmer and that
again means the employment of
many thousands Of extra hands to
manufacture the machines, carriag-
es and other commodities the farm
er wants.

Long DAYS and Nights.

The News and Courier says there
is no sunrise at the North Pole in
the sense in which We use the word.
Daylight Is in no wise dependent on
the turning of the earth, and there
is really no night and day in the
sense that darkness Is caused by the
earth getting between US and the
sun through rotation. In his jour-
ney from Capricorn to Cancer, the
sun eventually reached & point where
his rays penetrate even to the Polar
region. The sun then rises in the
south instead Of the east, and it

Should Be Continued.

The irrigation question like that
of the deep waterways, is fortunate
Iy not one of party. Every discern
ing person at all conVersant with
natural conditions Of the West
knows full we'll that so fertile nat
urally is the soil that it only needs
the application Of water to make
immense tracts of land remarkably
productive and capable Of support
ing a large and fourishing popula-
ton. So vast, however, is the pro-
ject that it is generally felt that
to secure best results federal as
well as State and private aid should
be continued. That economy IN
national expenditure is most deslr-
able is true. but it would be poor
economy to stop or curtail work on
projects which if carried out would
not only benefit particular lcalities
but also the whole country, and
that is what would probably hap
pen if federal aid is withdrawn.
There are other ways, such as frank
ing and congressional privileges, in
which the desired reduction might
we'll be made. So by all means let
the work Of irrigation go on, backed
by national and State aid.

Welcome, MIR. President.

That President Taft may have a
pleasant time on his Western and
Southern trip is the wish of every
one. Wherever he goes people Of
all shades of political belief will
give him a cordial and sincere well
come. But we want to warn the
distinguished visitor not to think
that the generous hospitality that
will be extended to him from one
end Of the South to the other when
he comes means that this section is
about to flop politically to his way
of thinking. The South will honor
its Republican President but will
remain solidly Democratic. Being
thoroughly Democratic, to the South
the contrast afforded by man elect
ed by the free suffrages of his fell
lows travelling about in Democratic
ways, simply dressed, coming into
direct contact with the people, fra
ternizing with them and addressing
them in set or informal speech as
the case may be; and that presented
by the pomp, ceremony and official
ism with which most Europen rulers
travel, is suggestive. 1t is sugges-
tive, for instance, of the vast diff
ference between the social and po-
litical conditions of this country and
those that prevail in most other
lands. So come along, Mr. Presi-
dent. The South will give you a
warm welcome, but will continue
to worship at the shrine of Democ-
raCY

Every member of this party OF
artists is chosen for his Individual
merit and for his value to the program
as whole. There is no star and there
are no supporting members.
The universal verdict of the best
critics in over five hundred appearances,
in twenty two states and Canada, has
been that The Ernest Gamble Com
pany is the most evenly balanced con-
cert party extant.
The Gamble Concert Company pre-
sents a series of four page, de luxe

FREIGHT WRECK
ON CENTRAL
Trains Piled up at Landis-
vile.
6 CARS OFF TRACK
Caused by the Ice and Snow Upon
the Tracks at Grade
Crossing.

After three days of hard fighting to
open the Central Railroad from under
the drifts of snow, more trouble was
encountered yesterday and the road
was tied up by a train wreck.
Yesterday morning freight train of
six cars and caboose was sent out. AT
Landisville the engine and six cars
ran off the rails upon the ground, the
accident being caused by ice clinging
to the rails at grade crossing.
The passenger train that operates
from Landisville to Bridgston, was
upon the other side of the freight
wreck, and could not operate. The
passenger train from Greenwich ran to
Landisville and the traffic was trans
ferred around the wreck.
Last night the engine was gotten on
the track, and it is expected that the
entire line will be open to-day.

TO ORGANIZE
Not Many Changes in the
Organization.
OGDEN FOR DIRECTOR

Will Again be Chosen For the Posi-.
tion He Has Filled With
Satisfaction.

When the annua meeting of the
Board of Chosen Freeholders is held or
the first day of January, in the rooms
of the Bridgeton Commercial League,
there will be little division of senti
ment among the members. Politics
play but a very little part in the
proceedings of this organization, and
the representative men comprising the
body have but one object in view
that of serving the county to the best
possible advantage.
Many of the members -of the Board
have already expressed themselves as
to the organization for the ensuing
year, land it is practically certain that
there will be little change in the
officials of the Freeholders. The indi-
cations are that Capt. Jere. N. Ogden
will again be elected Director of the
Board without the slightest opposition.
Capt. Ogden, as director, has been
eminently fair, is a good presiding
officer and has the confidence of all
those with whom he has served. He
is qualified to preside over the deliber-
ations of the Board, and will be chosen
by reason of his popularity with the
members.
1t is also certain that County Solici-
tor Roscoe G. Ward will be reelected
as the legal officer of the Board and
Edward EP. Bacon will continue as
County Collector. Both men have
been efficient and served the Board
most satisfactorily.
The Board will also select bridge
managers, bridge tenders, trustees .-of
the Aims House and Managers of the
County Hospital for the Insane. 1t
seems probable that there will be very
few changes among any of these
officers

The meeting Of City Council on
Saturday. January first, will be
interesting aside from the matter of
organization.
Little is known of the matter of
officers for the ensuing year. None of
the members of Council of 1910 are
willing to say what they are likely to
DO In the matter of selecting officers.
1t is quite certain that President John
N. Glaspell will continue as presiding
officer Who will succeed City Clerk
Frank l.. Hewitt, if he should resign
remains matter of conjecture All of
the various Commissioners are elected
for one year terms and these places
will be filled on Saturday. 1t is not
believed that there will be many
changes in the Commissionership.
The annual reports of the various
commissioners will present to City
Council annual reports. These papers
will cover in detail the work of the
year in each department, and there
may be some recommendations
The first annual message of the
Mayor will also probably carry some
suggestions
The annual reports OF the financial
officers will probably be presented in
full at the meeting of Council on Tues.
day OF next week, which will be- the
