ON BOTH TICKETS,

Thanks to a few of the indepen-
lent republicans of this city, the
voters of that party will have an
opportunity to assist in naming a
n~on-partisan Board of Education at
the coming primary. The present
board, which is as nearly equally
divided as possible between the two
parties and which has done such
good work, will now appear on both
party primary ballots. Anyone has
until tonight to circulate other petit
lions for school commissioner, but
the voters of both parties can make
ssheir own choice and there is reason
70 believe that the board as 1t now
stands will be nominated on both
tickets. thus making the election of
the present members certain.
Some strictly partisan republicans
oppose the present makeup of the
BOARD because there are five demo
oats and but four republicans.

We read much of the benefit of re-
Taxing, which is true as far as con-
Germs the nerves and temper; there is
another kind OF relaxing-that Of mus
cles, that is dangerous II made a life
habit.
1t is all right not to keep oneself
tense, to let everything go occasionally
and just flop. The trouble lies in max
ing this Topping permanent.
If a girl or boy gets into the habit Of
dropping his shoulders, lelling, sprawl
ing over a table, c%rouching over books
or games, do you know what happens?
The ligaments are weakened, the mus
cles lose tone, sometimes wen the
bones grow distorted If the habit is ac-
quired while young bones are still soft.
1T is not pleasant to be continually
nagging at children, 'Stand up" Keep
your elbows off the tablei' Hold your
shoulders upt' but keep up the good
work though 1t daily rows.
Such things are more than a ques-
ton Of good manners; they mean good
health. 1t Is a big, temptation to let
things 60, but remember that rocked
backs, cramped lungs, distorted hips
and shoulders, badly poised necks, all
the organ Of our body out Of place,
follow muscles that are not kept
stretched to their natural position.

EDITORIAL COMMENT

posed of business men who are
willing to give their services to the
city, but who will not enter into any
cheap political fight. They are
above the quarrels of the petty
politicians. They have no interests
to serve except the interest of the
taxpayers. They are the kind Of
men we want at the head of our
school system and we believe that
the people will return them by a
lareg majority.
Republicans and democrats alike
will have the opportunity of placing
these nine men on their regular
party ticket for the November cleo
ton. At the primary September 10
the voters will go to the polls and,
by crossing out the names of the
men they do not want nominated,
will express their preference as to
who shall be the candidates on their
respective tickets. Only nine men
can be nominated on each ticket for
the school board. 1t is for the voters
themselves to express their conf
dence in the present board by going
to the polls the second Tuesday in
and nominating the same
nine men on both the democratic
and republican tickets, thus entirely
removing the schools from politics.
Do this much for Perth Amboy.

THE MAYOR AND THE POLICE.

When Mayor Bollschweiler makes
an attack on the police department
OF this city he is only bringing dis
credit upon himself. He takes pride
in the fact that he is at the head of
the department, and 1t Is safe to say
that no mayor ever took more ad-
vantage of the power thus conferred
upon him by the city charter than
the present executive. A few years
ago the Perth Amboy police force
and Chief Burke had a statewide
reputation for efficiency and good
work. This cannot be said of it to-
day. What has brought about the
changer Who is responsible?
The mayor himself is now criti-
cising the department in the sever
est terms, but 1t seems that his fault
findings are all with officers who are
doing their duty and enforcing the
law. What are the police for, NY
way? And what does the mayor
mean by being liberal?
When the mayor talks about get
ting himself soaking wet looking for
q policeman he only makes himself
Ridiculous. If there was a robbery
at the public market, as the mayor
says, why not spend the time look
ing for the thief instead of an
officer? But as it was raining, and
as the dampness seems to have
caused the mayor some discontinue,
why spend an hour running round
and round a block when ten min
utes would take one to police head
Tdarters-where every policeman on
duty is within easy reach?
But what has an alleged robbery
at the public market got to, do with
the way Patrolman Andrew Jensen
is enforcing the traffic ordinance?
Judging from the mayors interview,
the attack on Jensen was more his
object than finding the alleged thief.
Jensen is known as an efficient
officer. He believes the policemen
have something to do besides stand
around and look pretty. No one
can enforce the law and ordinances
without making enemies. When one
is a candidate for reelection it might
seem good policy to try to placate
those who have become offended be
cause they have been forced to obey
thel law, but we doubt if 1t is.
The mayor boasts of being a
liberal minded man. 1t would be
interesting to know how far that
liberality extends. 1t has already
brought the city into the limeiight
as a wide-open city, and has brought
discredit upon the police depart
ment. Where is it going to end?

WOODROW WILSON AND LABOR.

On another page today will be
found a communication from Henry
Hilfers, secretary of the state FEEDER
alton of Labor. Mr.. Hilfers explains
the stand organized labor has taken
In regard to the nomination OF
Woodrow Wilson, of Princeton, for
governor DR.. Wilson is opposed by
the federation because, In the course
of one of his addresses, he criticised
labor unions on the ground that
they forced the employer to pay as
much to the inferior workman al he
paid the best men. DR.. Wilson call
ed these "~unproftable servants"
Mr.. Hilfers says that DR.. Wilson
insults the honest laborer. He de-
clares that if the employer was not
compelled to pay the high wages to
inferior men there would soon be a
glut of cheap labor In the market
and thus the good man would be
forced to the level of the poorer
worker.
We think it is Mr.. Hilfers who
does labor an injustice. He init
mates that the poor mechanic will
control the good one. We think he
is mistaken, believing that the
superior workmanship and %intelli-
gence of the good workman will put
him on top every time. A few en-
ployers, who are Indifferent to the
kind of work they produce at their
shops, may be willing to employ in
ferior help, attracted by the cheaper
wages; but the great majority of
employers want the very best mel
they can get and are willing to pay
the difference in price, realizing that
the products of their factory or mill
will stand all the better competition,
and will give more satisfaction to
customers. This is proven by the
willingness of the employers to pay
wages even above the scale fixed by
the labor unions in order to hold the
good men.
But no matter which view one
takes on this question, 1t has little
to do with the selection Of a cover.
nor. DR.. Wilson is a man big enough
and broad enough to represent The
whole people. He would recognize
neither organized nor unorganizet
labor. He would give a government
according to law. What more cal
any man ask?

A Hsrnhardt Trick.

Nine. Sarah Bernhard, who is sup
posed to be something Of an artist as
well as an actress, was recently called
upon in n of her marvellous creations
to enact the role Of a sculptor and to
model a certain bust In view of the au-
dience.
This fairly electrified the critics, but
when going into rhapsodies over the
technical skill in handling the clay
which Nine. Bernhardt exhibited they
showed that they knew little of the
artistic tricks Of actors and actresses.
AS a matter of fact, she does nothing
of the kind. The bust is modelled and
baked, and over 1t Is placed damp clay
of the same color. This the actress
merely pulls Off. leaving the beautifully
modelled head underneath.
