STILL MORE CANDIDATES..
List of Candidates to be Voted Upon
at Primary June 9TH Continues
to Grow.

A new name is added this week.
to the list of candidates for Super
visor in the Fifth District, DEBORAH
and Madison townships, that of Mr..
B. o. Bakken of Madison township.
Mr.. Bakken is web and favorably
known throughout the district, is
good farmer and business man, and
has the qualifications necessary for
this position. Besides he lives in
Madison township, which has never
had a supervisor, and many people
feel that the township is entitled to
representation on the Board. There
is no doubt that Mr.. Bakken would
make good supervisor if nominated
and elected.
Among the announcements of
candidates for office, will be found
this week that of Mr.. John P.
Bake, of Frankville township, for
Supervisor for the First District
Mr.. Bake has lived in this part of
the county since childhood, is a
man well known throughout the
district, is an honest, successful
farmer with good business ability,
and would make a good supervisor
if nominated and elected. He has
many friends who will be pleased to
support him.
We are also asked to announce
the candidacy of Mr.. P. ]. Carolan
of Bluffton for the democratic NOM
ination for Sheriff. Mr.. Carolan is
we'll known all over the county. He
is fine man in every way, and the
only thing we can say against him
is that he is democrat. He will
be loyalty supported by the men,
bers fthat party, without doubt.

HIGH TIDE OF SPRING TRADE.

There is no time of the year in
which advertising brings more i'm
mediate returns than May and
June. 1t is a time when people
hardly expect the lowest prices, and
when they expect to pay fair prices
if they are convinced that goods
are stylish and substantial. The
desire to have up-to-date goods has
spread far out into the country dis
tricts, where the people are listen
ing to hear what the merchants
have to say through the newspaper.
A good run of business now
means much to the merchant, be-
cause on the good prices prevailing
in the height of the season, he
makes the bulk of his profit. If he
can get rid now of the bulk of his
stocks, he can reduce the heavy
losses of the clearance sales of July.
Every day the women of the
households that read this newspa-
per are turning eagerly to the adj
vertising columns, to see what mer-
chants give the impression Of hav-
ing the most attractive stock at
reasonable prices. Sales lost by
failure to advertise now mean a
mo profit" sale later on.

HOmesteaders Taken Advantage Of

c. L. Culver arrived home on
Saturday from trip to Montana.
We hear that several of the DEBORAH
people who went ont there recently
and filed on government land were
swindled by the locator, who showed
them pieces Of land, and then To-
Gated them on other lands, which
they did not discover until recently,
and which causes them to take
much poorer land than they thought
they were getting. 1t is very prob
able that they will make it hot for
him. if they can do so. Misrepre-
sentation on the part of a locator
is a criminal offense, and we under
stand that the government will take
charge of the case.

indicate a queer state of affairs.
Billy Sunday said in a recent sermon
in Chicago: Hell will be so full of

sinners go then, poor things!

m~unications:
when the present Governor of this
State was urged to take a position on
the local option question, which is the
main, moral, political issue in the State,
he declared that the reason he did
not do so was because his position had
not been stated prior to his nominal
ton and election, and to take such a
position after election would be to be-
tray a large number who had voted
for him with the understanding that
his public pledge covered the extent of
his e~ndeavors on this question. To this
position most Of the party papers in
the State have said, Amen 1t is right
that an official should not be expected
to go beyond his campaign declara-
tions."

State Superintendent of the Anti-Sa-

Burke has made an innovation in his
local option crusade this year by add
ing all g~ubernatorial aspirants to the
list of legislative nominees whom he
endeavors annually to place on record
prior to election day regarding their
views on the restriction of the sale of
liquor.
Heretofore it was generally after the
primaries that Mr.. Burke appealed to
prospective legislators, but now he is
going after the would-be governors as
well, and before the primaries. too.
His apparent reason for the early start
is found in the following paragraph of

PR0bERS PRAISE
EDUCATION BOARD
IN EAST NEWARK
Trustees Congratulated by Sem
ate Investigating Committee
for Clean System.

Senator Joseph S. Frelinghuysen.
chairman of the Senate investigating
committee. at the conclusion of the
committees session in the borough of
East Newark this morning. c%ongratu-
lated the members of the Board of
Education on the remarkably clean
system of school government they were
giving the borough.
No evidence of graft or corruption
of any sort were brought to light by
the probers. The members of the
Board of Education willingly gave
their testimony to Counsel Murray, of
the investigating committee, and their
replies to his questions seemed to sat-
isfy the members of the committee.
Some trifting Irregularities. due more
to o~versights thar to intention to do
wrong, were discovered. 1t was brought
out that the school board had been in
the habit of paying bills presented by
the j. L. Hammit Company, a supply
firm, to j. r. Phillips, its treasurer, on
checks drawn in his name. Chairman
Frelinghuysen censured the members
of the board slightly for this.
Ah1dasft Mfsstng.
A BILL. also presented by the Ham
NIT Company, to which no AFFIDAVIT
was attached, was also unearthed. This,
the members of the board declared, was
caused by carelessness.
While Clerk William A. Carey was
on the stand the fact that 1t was GUS
tomary for the members of the Board
of Education to purchase for them
selves fountain pens was brought to
light.
"Doyou give up these PEN when you
leave office asked Judge Morrow, a
member of the committee.
NO" replied Carey. 1--WE usually see
to it that we lose them about that
time.'' and the members Of the com
mittee laughed heartily.
Terence H, O'Donnell, custodian OF
school moneys had been supplyins
| stationery to the board. but it was
brought out that in most cases he had
charged only the list price and had
given the Board of Education a 10 mel
cent. discount in the bargain. For some
supplies he had charged even less thai
the list price.
Averaged Cost.
A few spoilers purchased for the
schools from Mr.. O'Donnell had beer
furnished for 80 cents apiece, whereas
the list price was p cents. This, how.
ever, was evened up in the low prices
charged for other supplies.
Patrick H. Kinsella. president of the
| board. asserted on the stand that the
East Newark Board of Education was
the cleanest in the State, and he was
not ~contradicted.
The investigating committee is in
Kearny this afternoon. and tomorrow
morning will start its work Of probing
school conditions in Harrison.
