THE LOGIC OFT.

When Senator Gebhardt held a Sc
cret conference at Pennington with
"Jim" Pidcock, the political boss, +. A.
Dalrymple. whiskey salesman, Joseph
l.. Chamberlain, proprietor of the
town, a representative of the State Ii
quor Dealers Association and a Lam
bertville bartender, whose sickness in
politics is better known than his public
spirit, what was the aforesaid Senator
object
There is no better rule for sizing up
am individual and his intentions than
the one which says, ga man is known
by the company he keeps"
1t is a matter of common report and
general belief that the so-called Liquor
Men of New Jersey have for years been
large contributors TO campaign funds in
most Of the counties of New Jersey.
If Hunterdon Is not one OF them, it has
escaped by the skin of its teeth J.; and
nobody In his right mind believes that
it has entirely escaped, Notwithstanding
the grandstand play made by Senator
Gcbhardt when he returned that $500
check to the Liquor Man who sent it
to him after keeping ii for an almost
suspiciously long time. Not that he
intended to use the check directly for
campaign uses, but what pretty little
trick in politics it was to save it until
he needed it to flaunt as an exhibition
of his honesty and integrity in cam
paign in which he was candidate.
Almost any simpleton, to say nothing
of an intelligent man would see through
the purpose ofretaining and returning
that liquor check as easy as man can
see through milestone. Among bust
ness men of honor and all men of SIN
centy such a palpable trick would be
rebuked with startling emphasis Why
not in politics.
Are the voters of this county willing
and ready to support any political can
didate who, by implication even, i'm
poses upon their intelligence by secret
ly comforting with liquor dealers and
distributors when he is pledged to vote
for Local Option. and who holds for
four months Liquor Mans check to
impress them with an honesty of which
no public man or private citizen should
have need or cause to do?
That is the cold logic of Mr.. Geb-
hardt's political standing in this cam
paign. No man can attempt to carry
liquor on one shoulder and water on
the other and be above suspicion, can

Losing Local Option Vote Fast. Gebhardt
Turns to Pidcock to Save Himself Neither
Local Optonsts Nor Liquor Men
Trust Him


Senator Gebharlt was in Fleming
ton on Saturday last aud met in secret
conference Boss Pidcock, +. Dalrym-
pie, a whIskey statesmen, Lambert
vile bartender, JOS. l.. Cham berlaiu,
proprietor of the Union Hotel, pro-
minent hotel man of Frenchtown and
a representative of the Liquor Dealers
Association.
The voters who are in earnest in
their support of Local Option are fast
leaving MIR. Gebhardt and he has turn
ed to Boss Pidcock and the liquor men
to save himself. Local Optionists
learn that Gebhardt is in league with
bartender of Lambertville as shown
by the primary vote in the first ward
OF that city, consequently he seeks
the support of Pidcock and the liquor
interests. Mr.. Gebhardt Is the great
est exhibition of DIR. Jeckyl and Mr..
Hyde proposition ever seen IN Hunter
don county. It's anything to get votes
with him. Because tho Republicans
came out fairly and squarely for Local
Option last fall and elected part of
their ticket on that platform, Gebhardt
is now desperately trying to appropri-
ate for his own personal advantage,
principles of the opposition party. He
asks the support of certain clergymen,
he asks the support of the liquor men,
his best worker and most ardent sup
porter is bartender and yet he pro-
fesses to be consistent and with COM
placent egotism expects to be taken by
all classes of men as the only exponent
of what they stand for. -Hunterdon

ONLY ONE WAY.

When any particular Objects the de-
sire of the people of any county or State
it is often necessary to ignore party
lines and party nominees. All over the
Southern States where democracy is
absolutely in the ascendant, the people
who wanted Local Option, ignored
party lines, joined hands in common
cause and won. If the people of this
county want to make sure OF Local OPP
ton here they will vote for DIR. William
+. Hawke for Senator and Archibald
G. Smith for Assemblyman. Why ?
For the reason that the Republicans Of
the several counties did not, because
they dared not, place any restrictions
on the liquor questions upon their can
didates for the Legislature.
There is some talk now Of paying
equal honor to the soldiers who wore
the gray because they too were brave,
selfsacrihcing and so on. That may
be we'll enough for those who think so,
but according to my limited under
standing, there is some difference be-
tween fighting for the brotherhood OF
man, and fighting for the perpetual
slavery of one part Of the human family.

ON REFEREE AS YET.

Has Charlie Riley gone up against
too fast a game in Dick Cullen is the
question when Is DoUherlng his hackers
IN this city. Everyone here connect
ed with the fighting game who has seen
Riley in action is strong to see him
out, but from the looks to the dope
winch is to be found he is going TO
have the hardest time he has ever
experienced when he gets into the ring
at Aloha Park on Saturday night Gull
len is a willing fighter with a punch
in both mits and with foot work which
is not only fast but bewildering to his
opponent. He has combination of
shift and side step which leaves him in
a position to bore in with either hand
and which is bound to make Riley sit
up and take notice before the fight has
gone many rounds.
One thing which makes Cullen's
hackers feel that they have a good
thing is the fact that their man had
very little difficulty in gaining a deci-
sion over frankie Edwards, one of the
cleverest little men on the Pacific
Coast, and whom Riley has met three
times, with a draw being the best deci-
sion that he could get. Cullen went
in with Edwards in a six round go and
came out with a clear decision in his
favor and hardly a mark of the con-
flict, though he was hardly in cond1-
ton, being substituted for another man
at the last moment.
Another big feather in Cullen's cap
which must be recognized as showing
his class is the fact that he was able to
beat Malone the well known Australian
who is the only man who has succeeded
in putting AL Wolgast out for the
count. Wolgast has risen to the top
notch in fighting and is the man who
show Battling Nelson a few new
points in the game when they met a
few months ago. He is now matched
to meet Nelson in a As round go on
Thanksgiving Day, when he will have
another chance at the championship.
That training is not all play and
that Charlie Riley is not fooling his
time away has been shown by mis-
hap which befeu Sarconi, the bugier
from Camp Very, who was to take part
in a 10 round go with Kid Terry on
Saturday night When trying Riley
out the other day Sarconi got in the
way of a savage smash over his heart
which caused him good deal of pain.
He was finally so much bothered with
this that he went to the Marine Camp
doctor who gave him the disturbing
news that there was no more fighting
for him for some weeks to comes, as
Riley's blow mad fractured a rib over
his heart
This, of course leaves the promoters
of the fight in a bad place, for, with
Sarconi out of the way new oppon-
ent must be found for Terry. Wahi-
lani has been suggested but the act that
he is about five pounds over Terry in
weight may destroy this chance of a
