FATE OF MAIN
GOLF TROPHY TO
Be DECIDED TO-DAY
Belongs to Wallace if He Wins;
Will Still Be Open if
Sylvester Wins.
Especial to the Newark start

VAN CORTLANDT PARK, N. Y,
Sept. S.-Great interest was taken this
morning in the semi-flnals for the
Chief cup in the greater New York
amateur championship, which is being
decided today over the public golf
course at Van Cortlandt Park. Quite
a large gallery followed the match be-
tween the ex-caddy boy, Joseph Syl-
vester, unattached, and d. P. Healey,
unattached, while an almost equally
large gallery followed the other match,
between William Wallace, unattached.
and w. c. w. Becker, New York Golf
Club.
The favorites were Sylvester and
Wallace, although of the two the golf
enthusiasts rather favored Sylvester,
owing to the fact that Wallace has
already won a leg on the cup and an
other win will make the valuable
trophy his personal property, while II
Sylvester should win this afternoon the
trophy will continue in competition for
at least another year
A steady rain has started that looks
as though it would continue through
out the day. AT the finish of the FIRST
six hill holes Sylvester led Healey by
l up and Wallace led Becker by 2 up.
The match between Sylvester and
Healey was very close from start to
finish, the ex-caddy boy only saving
himself by the narrow margin of 1 up,
doing the round in Is to his opponents
70. In the O'Connell cup semi-f1nals
l.. F. Rockwell, New York Golf Club,
beat c.. M. H. Atherton. unattached, by
4 and 2. and P. T. Haber, Scottish
American, beat j. p. Downey, New
York Golf Club. by 2 and L.
Wallace played a steady game and
beat Becker by 8 and 2, which leaves
Wallace and Sylvester for the final this
afternoon.

ECONOMY AND
REFORM, HARR|GAN
PLATFORM SLOGAN
Demands Also r. R. Rate Control
and Law to Prevent Smother
ing of Good Bills.

A platform big enough for all the
William Harrigan Association candi-
dates for Democratic nominations at
the primaries to be held one week from
next Tuesday was formally approved
today by Sheriff Harrigan, candidate
for governor; Owen F. Conlon, who is
indorsed for county register: John A
Mof1t, candidate for supervisor, and
the ten aspirants for Assembly.
Summarized, the platform declares
for adequate control Of railroad freight
and passenger rates, extension of the
direct primary system to all elective
officers, adoption of the Oregon plan
for selecting United States senators,
taxation of railroad, Is well as other
property, at true value, economy in
public expenditures, abolition of county
boards of taxation, denunciation OF
government by commission and of the
enormous increase in State expendi-
lures during the Republican control OF
seventeen years. A synopsis of the
various planks follows:
Rate Regulation Pledge.
First-We pledge ourselves to favor a
rate regulating provision In the law
creating a public utilities commission
If it be determined that rate-making
power can be constitutionally con-
ferred upon this body. But il the courts
decide that such rate-making power is
unconstitutional then we favor the es-
tablishment of a maximum rate per
mile for steam railroads, whereby the
Legislature can directly and effectively
enforce the regulation of passenger
rates.
Second-We are in favor of the ex-
tension of direct primary act to the
selection Of candidates for governor
and representatives in Congress.
Third-We also favor the election of
United States senators by popular vote
and believe that this s%alutary reform
can be virtually accomplished by the
adoption of the Oregon popular primary
| plan in the nomination and election
| of Legislators pledged to vote o United
States senator receiving the greatest
popular suffrage.
Employers Liability Bill.
Fourth-We pledge ourselves for 9
fair and equitable employers liability
bill, so that the rights of employer and
employee may be judiciously safe
guarded and that the employee may
not be made to suffer by accidents be-
You'd his control and not resulting from
his own personal negligence.
Five-We believe that railroad prop
erty should be assessed it's true value
Six-The enormous net earnings Of
railroad corporations being a matter Of
common knowledge, we demand that
legislation be enacted to prohibit any
increase, not only In passenger rates
but also in freight tariffs. unless and
until sufficient proof of the reasonable
ness Of such proposed advances be le'
gally demonstrated.
Seven-We believe in such reform o.
the rules of procedure in Senate ane
Assembly as will prevent the smother
ing or killing in committee of bills de-
signed to benefit the people.

RECEIVER DEMANDED FOR
NEWTON GAS AND ELEC. co.
Plant Built on Quicksand, Conn
pany Cannot Get Extension

I "
TRENTON. Sept. S.--Because it has
been impossible to get unanimous con-
sent of the bondholders to an ex-
tension from 1924 to 1884 in which to
redeem the bonds, and because the
present plant is likely to be ruined by
the foundations, which are built OF a
quicksand soil, n not being able to
obtain enough money to remove the
plant to a place where a good founda-
ton can be built, Vice-Chancellor
Walker has granted an order to show
cause why a receiver should not be ap-
pointed for the Newton Gas and Elec-
trio Company of Newton.
The application, which was made by
Lewis S.. Iliff. practically shows that
because of the condition of affairs, the
company is OF will be insolvent.
The order to show cause Is return
able at Newark on September 10.

WILL EVENTUALLY SUFFER.

Whether or not United States SEN
ator Lorlmer won his toga by bribery
Of Democratic and Republican legisla-
tive members, is q matter no one this
far distant can well say. It Is now
somewhat dark for Lorimer, who once
boasted public sentiment WIS easily
made, were the maker possessed of a
stiff bank account.
But the incident started by a dis
solute East st. Louis member of the
legislature, whose source of income Is
at this time matter of mystery, only
adds to the demand that the people
elect their United States senator's di-
rect.
Illinois is the second state in the
Union as to Republican majorities,
third in population.
II is represented in congress by a
large number of men-Cannon. Rainey
and Mann are the only three with
even statewide fame, Cannon's fame
being of a questionable sort at this
moment.
Illinois has no senator-has not had
for almost two decades

States, fourth in the world, ihas but

CATION as to how they do things there
start at once.

messes-let Us pray such will happen
But II is safe to affirm those who II
they did, purchase power, will event
ually suffer for their acts.
