Topeka, Kas., July 24.-The State
Board of Railroad Commissioners is
sending out notices to all the railroad
companies operating in Kansas to be-
gin the enforcement of the law which
prohibits drinking intoxicating liquors
on passenger trains in Kansas.
The law was passed by the recent
Legislature but none of the companies

Its provisions, railroads are required to
post notices in all passenger coaches
that 1t is unlawful to drink liquors on
the trains.
The law provides that any conductor
who finds anyone drinking on the train
may arrest the guilty party and hold
him until the next station is reached
when the guilty party is to be turned

WANTED; A SENATOR!
New Jersey wants a change in
United States Senators, at least needs
a change in that line. In the great
battles which have been going on at
Washington of late, New Jersey has
hardly been heard of. Little Rhode

men from other sections have helped to
mould legislation, but New Jersey ap.

1T is year before the pot will be
boiling hot on the question of the
United States Senatorship from New
Jersey but it is not too early for the
people to think about candidate.
Ex- Governor Stokes, of Millville, has
been mentioned as probable can
didate, and when questioned by friends
when he returned from his recent trip
to Europe, heAansWered something like
this. IF you want me, I want it. -
That is Stokes out and out and
means unequivocally that if the people
want him to take the United States
senatorship, he wants it,. If they don t
want him, he don't want it.
There is not a men in New Jesrey
to-day who has made gocl in as many
public positions as Ex Governor Stokes.
He made Cumberland County some.

assemblyman and senator. He has al

and has shown broadness of view, in

MASKELL rs UNDER ARREST

John Maskell, of Camden, was ar.
rested in this city Tuesday and-.held
in bail which was procured. Officer
John Woodruff made the arrest on a
warrant sworn out by Henry G. Dare,
before Mayor Hampton a day or two
ago and thereby hangs tale.
John Maskell is the SON -in-law of
Mr.. Dare, and Mrs. .Maskell and her
husband, it appears, do not live to-
gether, on account of a woman who
has red hair and whose first name is
Edna. Mr.. and Mrs. Maskell have two
children, Della and Ethel Marguerite.
The two children have been with their
grandparents, Mr.. and Mrs. Dare.
Last week Mr.. Maskell sent word to
the grandparents that he was coming
down to get the children, but Mr.. and
Mrs. Dare took the children away and
sent word back to Maskell that he
need not come, for the children we're
not at their home.
On Sunday Maskell sent dispatch
to Mr.. Dare stating that he would come
down after Ethel and if he (Dare) did
not surrender her. he would ''swipe up
the city of Bridgeton with him"
Yesterday female detective came
down and got off the train at Irving
avenue station and asked a man stand
ing there (who happened to be Mr..
Dare himself) where Henry Dare re-
sided. On learning who Mr. Dare was
she served upon him formal demand
for the child, Ethel. Mr., Dare went
home and brought the child down
town, putting her in place of safety,
and then he waited for the arrival of
Maskell When he alighteI from the
train he wrs taken in custody by Officer
Woodruff.
The Mayor being out of town State
Attorney Fithian appeared for him and
entered bail for the man, and he left
without taking the little girl.
The child is an exceedingly bright
one. not yet four years old. To the
person with whom she was staying
during this time, she said: ct don't
want to go back to old Camden. l
rather stay here with my grandma and
grandpa. If I could 1 would just
drown my papa. That woman, nv
papa's Edna, has got red hair; well if
it amt rcd, its light -
Maslsell does not seem to care about
the oldest child, Della, but is deter.
mined to get possession of Ethel.
The end is not yet.

BOY IS OUT OF JAIL NOW.

Willie Bullard, the alleged Juvenile
horse thief" is out of Jail. Bail was
Tuesday, reduced from $500 to $50,
bonds were furnished and the boy is at
liberty.
Yesterday an officer came here from
Philadelphia looking into the case. The
officer said the boy was but child, full
of mischief and had not stolen the
horse.of Jonathan Carter but merely
taken it for lark. Mr.. Carter was
glad. the officer said, not to press the
charge against the boy, and after the
youngster was liberated he was taken
back to the home of Mr.. Mills, where
he had been living, and Mr.. Mills was
glad to have the lad returned.
The Pennsylvania officer said he was
astonished when he came to Bridgeton
and found the little fellow locked up
in the county Jail with hardened
criminals, In Pennsylvania, he said,
children are never sent to the prison
pens.
There is law in this State requiring
children to be kept separate from other
prisoners in the county jails, but the
prison management here does not
enforce the law,

A Suggestion.

To j. Ward Richardson, President CT
the Evening News Co.
Among the charges made against
Isaac I. Nichols Of grating and accent.
ing money for his vote and influence
are some in which you name figures.
Now, as you seem to have taken the
contract to defend his name, and he
appears too busy dispensing the need
full among the poor voters, suppose
you furnish an affidavit that you never
gave to Mr.. Nichols, or caused to be
given to him, directly or indirectly any
money or valuable consideration for
his vote or influence. You know
whether the charges are true or not,
and under the law, If guilty, you are
equally culpable.
Don't let the vision of a term in
State Prison deter you from doing
right. Besides if you can say positively
that these charges are false, and back
them up with an affidavit, The articles
which you are printing in the News
from day to day in favor of Mr..
Nichols will have more force and effect.
If you are tco modest to print the af-
fiidavit in the News, send it over we
will be pleased to print it for you in
the Pioneer.
Think carefully of this matter Wardy.

worth two in the BUSH" Not always.

THOUSANDS OF
LICENSES OUT.

Although the cunning season in New
Jersey has not fairly opened, the State
has thus far issued over 5000 licenses
to gunners in all parts of the State.
And it is expected that when the season
is on in full swing the most roseate ex-
pectations of those who framed the law
whjch went into effect last July will
be fulfilled.
Under the law, which is in effect
this year for the first time, residents of
the State are not permitted to take or
shoot game until they have first OBJ
tanned license from the clerk of the
county In which they reside. A person
is permitted to go cunning on his own
property, but when he goes into other
territory he must have his permit.
This is done that there may be less in
discriminate slaughter of game, and
and that the use of the guns may be
prohibited those who are not competent
to handle them.
From South Jersey shores the greatest
number of applicants have come, and
the people there who have contributed
their dollar for the privilege, represent
the best people in that section, During
the last month nearly $500 was received
by the State Treasurer from Atlantic
county alone, and other sections of the
State where there is good cunning are
showing up in similar manner.
One of the purposes of the law was
to prevent people who have either a
slight disregard or knowledge of the
game laws cf New Jersey from killing
off birds or game that are protc cted by
the State. Unnaturalized foreign born
people were those whom the trainers of
the law feared most in that respect.
An examination OF the record shows
that but So licenses have been requested
by such people, and with such small
proportion it is sargued that there will
little danger of indiscriminate
slaughter.
Ii is the general opinion that this
year there will te an abundance of
sport for those who wish to try their
luck at shooting deer without going
out of the confines of their own State.
This year the law will be off each of
the four Wednesdays in November for
the first time in long time. And it
is believed from the many reports
which have been received from all
parts of the State that there will be
many opportunities to bring down a
buck or doe. In some sections of the
State the farmers report that they see
deer daily, and in some sections the
animals are called an unmitigated
nuisance, because Of the damage they
do to crops.

State Council of New Jersey, Jr. 0
U. A. M.
Office of State S. 3retary.
Trenton, N. j., Sept. 90 1909.
To the members Of the Jr. o. U. A,
M. of Cumberland County, New
Jersey.
Greeting:
Your attention has already teon
called by former letters to the impor,
tance of protecting the school moneys
of the State from the attempts to di-
vert them from school uses. With the
successful fight that the Order made
on this subject, with which you are
familiar, it is important that the
nominees for Assembly this fall should
be right On this question, as the same
parties who made the attacks last
winter will renew it next WINTER.
We can only judge q man by bis
utterauces and record. Assemblyman
Nichols, Of your county, has declared
in public statement that he is going
back to the Assembly to carry out the
policies of Governor Fort. The most
prominent policy of Governor Fort is
t. take from the schc Dis the school
moneys that are at present derived
from the tax on the main stem of rail
roads.
Upon the floor Of the Assembly last
spring, when discussion upon this
question was on and the Order was
lighting for the schools Assemblyman
Nichols snoered at our efforts and at
tackled the Order in public utt9rance.
We give an extract from the State
Gazette, of the city of Trenton, on the
morning of April g. 1909:
''Mr. Nichols, Cumberland, got the
floor and cracked the Junior Order
United American Mechanics. He said
rtain parties have used this fund as
basis to work up a great fraternal
order sufficient to make itself felt now. y
The above quotation was made in a
speech by Assemblyman Nichols on the
passage of the school measures, and
his remarks are an insult to this
Order.
The attention of every member of
the Order in Cumberland county is
called to the necessity Of supporting
some loyal friend of the Order, and not
a man who attacks as and whose
associates are those who publicly de
clares that they will divert the rail-
road taxes from schc u to general
State uses.
Yours fraternally

CONTRIBUTION OF LABOR.

The Millville Courier in its issue of
last week prints the following COM
munication:
A WORKINGMAN'S LETTER.
Editor of The Courier:
In your issue of last week. you called
attention to the record of Assemblyman
Nichols and showed that since 1866 he
had no occupation other than that of
holding or Of seeking office; that he
had been a candidate on the Demo.
cratic ticket; that he had st1mped the
county for the Democrats AID that dur
ing all that time be had refused to
work and earn livelihood as does the
ordinary citizen. II every man in the
community insisted upon living as
Nichols has lived since his defeat for q
third term as Senator, there would be
no factories or mills in operation, no
workshops, no production, no industry
and no wages. There would be no
workingman, because there would be
no men who worked.
Isaac T. Nichols life for the last
twenty years has been the life of an
idler-an unfortunate example to the
young men Of our community. In the
meantime. age.earners of Cumberland
County have earned their bread from
day to day. have built homes, have
contributed to churches, have educated
their children and have helped to
bring prosperity to this section.
What has Assemblyman Nichols
done to this end? He has not worked
except as government or state Off
cial. He has lived in idleness at the
expense either of his family, or his
friends when he had health ard strength
to work if he had so desired. What
right has the idler to pose as the friend
of the workingman or to ask the votes
of those who labor and work when he
has ''toiled not, neither has he spun. !"

Used to II.

Mr.. Nichols is so adverse to ex.
Governor Stokes that we are surprised
that he would even use a familiar
phrase of the ex-Governor-''D Deadly
Parallel But then Nichols is 50
used to borrowing from the ex.Gover-
nor and others that he does not mind a
little thing like that,
