To the Editor of the Evening Star:
In view of the fact that the Newark
police have made several important
captures Of burglars within the past
week, a word of praise in their behalf
would not be amiss. The capture OF
two criminals with records while at
work armed shows the bravery of VI
bluecoats.
The records of robberies for the
summer show them to be less this year
than ever, before. Dur police depart
ment at the present time ranks second
to none, and we might we'll be proud
of it. The suspicious characters who
have been picked up on the streets
were always found to be either per
sons with a record or a criminal who
was wanted in another State. This
alone proves that the men hired to pro-
tect our homes and lives are always
about and doing.
The Police Board should be congratu-
lated on the fine work of the men and
complimented on picking such good
men for the department.

The Lack of Money.

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
If the word wealth meant exactly
what the world says it does, we would
have no more trouble. The farmer
might raise all he could, the manufac-
turer could simply revel in extrava-
gance of wealth and labor could swing
Indian clubs and everything would be
lovely.
But, alas, as variety is the spice of
life, such things cannot be. The farm
er would get tired of eating potatoes
alone, the manufacturer would die for
lack of potatoes, and the laborer could
not digest Indian clubs. On h prin-
ciple of everybody wanting what he
hasn't got, so the different occupations
of the world appear to need the most
what they do not produce themselves;
consequently, we must have a medium
of exchange, which we call money.
In our country there is enough to
make the interchange of commodities
fairly we'll, but not near enough. In
most countries it is so scarce that 1t
checks nearly all interchange and trade
with other countries and keeps the peo-
pie in a state of misery and sometimes
famine; some countries attract foreign

1Ta HE "Old Guard in New York is booked for a Waterloo de-
feat at Saratoga tomorrow because the revolt against the
Republican State regime was differed and led by strong
and influential men. The "Old Guard" has controlled its last State
convention and nominated its last candidate, unless a great reaction
shall set in in the future, and even then there will be new leaders.
Woodruff and Barnes will follow Plat and Odell into retirement,
no matter what the future shall bring. The "Old Guard" In New
Jersey. which has been uninterruptedly in power for fifteen years,
was confronted this year by a determined and growing hostility in
the party to the continuance of its control, but this opposition was
poorly organized, and except IN two II three counties a no aoie
and aggressive leaders. But there is a difference in the Republican
sentiment in the two States. In New York the Republican voters
generally want to GUST certain men from the leadership and make
te State platform conform to their ideals. In New Jersey the
large body of Republican voters who want a change are content
to wait until November, to then knock out the "Old Guard" alto
