"Widen E. orange Registration Probe"
To the Editor Of the Evening Star:
Let us hope that the Democratic or
ganization of Essex county will push
to a finish the inquiry into the regis
tration frauds in East Orange. AS 1
understand it, the local committee is
already busy on the probe, but the
matter is Of such intense interest on
the eve of n e of the most important
elections ever held in this State that
l think it ought to take a wider scope
and be investigated most thoroughly
by the county organization.
My theory is that there has been
a lot of fraudulent registration, which
is to be backed up by crooked work
at the polls in East Orange, then look
out for like breakers in, other parts
of the county! East Orange, you know,
Mr.. Editor, is n of those commune
ties which can do no wrong, even if it
Is in the interest of the Republican
party! ANTI-FRAUD.

THE PRICE OF BACON.

cA HE price of bacon is controlled by the meat trust. Not long
ago bacon sold at fifteen cents a pound. 1t is now up to
forty cents, an increase of nearly 200 per cent. The foreign
born miners in the anthracite coal region like bacon. In fact, thou
sands of them seldom have any other kind of meat. Trust prices
hit these men severely. The coal trust has their wages screwed
down to the limit and the meat trust steps in and virtually con-
fscates a large percentage of their wages. Indignation meetings
are being held, but--whats the use? And, moreover, we are all in
the same boat, though the conditions are harder for the miner and
his family than for the average victim.

ncnlorc. violence in strike..

To the Editor OF the Evening Star:
Every right-minded citizen, whether
he be a union man or not, is opposed
to that violence which has become a
fixed institution in all strikes and labor
disputes. We all depiore the fact that
violence is resorted to, and lin most
cases lose our sympathy for the strikers
because of their unlawful methods
However, do we ever stop to realize
that the union men have no other
means of winning their strike? Unless
they can prevent others from taking
their places they are sure to lose. In
Jersey City just now it is certain that

Verify, the way of the transgressor,

s~pecializes in burglary, is becoming
harder and harder every night in New
ark. Time was when an industrious
key or second-story man could arise
about $3.50 p. MATER a refreshing

ing in almost any section of our fair
city without fear Of molestation. But
those were the happy days of burglary,
and they've changed lamentably from
an under world standpoint. The late
summer and early autumn house-rob-
ber-catching record OF the Newark po-
lice Is perhaps unexcelied by any city
constabulary in the country. To bpr-

not need until next spring, Newark po-
licemen, in so far as burglars are con-
cerned, have been batting 1000 this

Aeneas, and called New Troy or Troy
