"CIRCLE ON SQUARE"
WINS FIGHT AT POLLS.

PLAINFIELD, March 16.-Reform
triumphed at Berkeley Heights yester-
day after the bitterest contest for the
control of the schools ever held in the
village. The victory was not gained
without the most determined sort of OPP
position, and threats of violence yer
freely made. The village constables
and Justice of the Peace Rowland
Parker prevented any outbreak.
Reform was represented by the or
ganization known as 1.-The Circle on the
Square, the opposition by the Johnson
and Bergmuller factions, which have
had things pretty much their own way
for years. The organizer of the Circle
on the Square is William Jeffrey, presi-
dent of the Board of Trade, and his COL
leagues are F. c. Schaffer, Simon G.
Debbie and Charles Springsteen. So
effective was their campaign that the
total number Of votes polled was So.
of which SO were counted for the Cir
Gle.

Mary Sullivan, Al years old, of So
Nesey street, who has been a bother to
the Third Precinct for the past few
days, was today sentenced to thirty
days in the Essex county Jail IN a

Hospital her wounds were dressed.
An investigation at her home by
Plainclothesman BreX brought out the
fact that every piece of furniture with
the exception of a stove had been sold.
Yesterday when the woman was re-
leased she sold the stove for thirty
cents.

will be unable to cave his bed for an

of a kick received while placing Will

arrest on Sunday. Kingsley was ar

In default of the bonds he was COM

charge of assault and battery preferred
by David Goldfarb, with whom he was
fighting at the time Schmidt arrested
him, and it is likely that the officer will
lay a further charge against him.

King Apples dominion is fully

To the Officers and Members of the
Farmers Union:
One of the greatest evils America is
facing today is feudalism in the
country districts-in other words the
condition which makes millions OF
farmers tenants upon the land from
which they must earn living.
Americans have fought to the last
ditch for their homes. 1t is a humor
Gus axiom that no man ever stood in
the last ditch for his boarding house,
and it is certain that no farmer is
going to discharge his duty, in times
of peace or war, if the roof that
shelters him is the property of another
man, and the acres that feed him are
simply rented for year or term
of years.
The entire nation is more or less
wrestling with the problem of tenancy.
But it is probably the southern states
is called upon to face it in its most
aggravated form.
know of, not one, but scores of
instances in which southern farmers
actually rejected proposals by which
they might easily have acquired their
own farms. They PREFER ed instead
to rent the land upon either system
of cropping" or of money payments
which. in few years would aggregate
more than the entire cost of the place.
Such a policy, and it is pursued in
the south to ruinous extent, leads
nowhere save to dependency or in
different prosperity.
So that one thing the Farmers
Union has endeavored to encourage,
has been personal ownership of the
farms of it's members against that
vicious system of cropping" by
which the tenant is little better than
slave to the land holder.
The man who does not run his own
farm is likely to be almost constantly
in debt to his landlord. From one
years. end to another his obligations
are perpetual and self renewing. He
must consult his landlord regarding

what crops and how much each crop
he shall cultivate. Often he is under
debt for the very necessities Of life
and in few cases | have known his
type to drag out hand-to- mouth ex
istence.
| sound this warning now so far as
regards the south as we'll as every
other section of the nation that at the
galloping rate lands are enhancing
owning your own farm few years
hence will be luxury. Today, only
a certain amount of enterprise, self
denial and thrift is essential. The
process is open to the humblest and
poorest farmer in America.
Hand in hand with homecoming,
should go the policy of scientific and
diversified farming.
During the panic of 1907 l know
several wise farmers in the immediate
neighborhood of my home, who raised
on their places every product neces-
sary to the sustenance of man and
beast. These men weathered the
toughest part of the panic almost in
ignorance Of the existence of such a
thing. They would not, in fact have
known of the existence of panic had
it not been for the Strengthened
circumstances of their less wide
awake friends, many of whom had to
borrow money with which to buy
food brought from outside the state
when that food should have been
raised upon their own acres.
We are not yet immune to panics in
this country. The visitation of 1907
will sooner or later be repeated.
If you raise your own food supplies
as we'll as food for cattle and stock
you will not feel the pinch of panic.
In this connection, it is hardly
necessary for me to say that diver
sihed agriculture means you shall
make cotton largely surplus crop.
The farmer who ''single shots" on
cotton is putting all his eggs in one
basket. He is paying tribute to the
western cattle and grain dealer out of
