plscRAcING NEW JERSEY.

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: As q wicked Democrat" may Be
permitted to 'butt In In your columns q
little and reply to tho letter Of Charles s.
Stockton, printed IN your fair and able
paper this morntng2
MT Stockton thinks It would be q dis
grace" TO New Jersey to send Mr.. MARITIME
to the United States Senate because Mr..
MARITIME is free trader. Now, every SEN
sible, intelligent man ought to know that
there is no moro disgrace in being free
trader than In being q protectionist; no
more than in being a Democrat instead of
Republican.
Disgrace comes when a man processes
one set Of principles before election and
then deliberately betrays those principles
after election This is precisely what James
Smith, 1r cid when he was last in the
United States Senate, and THAI Is why all
honest Democrats want to see some other
man sent there. Mr.. MARITIME may not be
q brilliant man, but there is no disgrace"
In that Mr. MARITIME Is an honest man.
and as such could never disgrace his
state as a dishonest man. no matter how
brilliant most assuredly would.
AS regards Woodrow Wilson'S efforts to
.'coerce" the Legislature. Mr.. Wilson Is
acting on practically the same lines that
Governor Hughes acted in New York State.
and, In the writer's opinion. Mr.. Wilson is
going to have just the same backing by
the people In New Jersey that Governor
Hughes received in New York. The differ
ence between men Ike Hughes and Wilson
and mon like Jim Smith and Bob
Davis IS that the former believe that tho
people should control the Legislature while
the latter think the bosses should Dc 30.

HIS MOTTO.

II I am called to service In the ma
tional Senate my motto will be, Upward
and onward, but steady, always steady.
The Hon. William F. Sheehan.
This motto inevitably suggests that
noble banner which the poet tells about:
The shades Of night were falling fast.
When through an Alpine village past
A youth who bore, mid snow and ice,
A banner with the strange device
Excelsior
with its steady, always steady" Is
stranger. However, 1t will be recalled
that the youths onward and upward
banner brought him to an unttmely end.
II 1t had had the steady, always
steady" saving clause on 1t he might
have put up overnight at the residence
OF the Alpine maiden who urged him to
stay and rest" instead Of going on to
be frozen to death. We do not fear,
therefore, for Mr.. Sheehan any such tate
as that which befell the bearer Of the
UNQUALIFIED excelsior" motto. At the
worst, after looking him over, motto and
all, Mr. Murphy will only say mot this
time" and. finding the way onward
and upward" barred, Mr.. Sheehan can
remain STEADY, always steady
Why shouldn't all our candidates be
compelled to adopt notices? How can q
man bare his bosom SO efectually as
when he discloses his private standard
Of personal virtue and efficiency, his
motto, the three or four words which
have been the guiding principle OF bis
life, to which he has been true in every
e11gency Of his career,nstunt ct tead-
Gem propos5ti 1irann, who is not moved
from adherence to his PRINCIPLES when,
say, q papier mache SKY Of ms own crea-
ton falls about him? There is the can
didate feeling his duty to expose his
secret heart in all Its whtteness to the
electorate; and how shall he do II 80
completely as when he reveals his motor
The knights Of old used to inscribe "sa'ls
peur ct sans reproche' and thousand
other equally lofty things upon their
shields and thought limo egodsm- 1t Was
good custom, which q snickehng world
laughed out Of existence. We are glad to
see that the Hon. William T. Sheehan
n going to revive II. A motto Is q very
human thing. Without his Mr.. Sheehan
might have been thought OF as mere
corporation lawyer" but who can think
that Of him after reading those noble
words, Upward and onward, but steady,
always steady? We applaud the way
he has edited that foolish and imprac-
ticable old motto, excelsior which
brought the youth to grief.
It is so sensible.
New-York tribune., 1910-12-31

original ballots and deciding whether It
showed sufficient change from the orig
inal count to alter the result OF the
election. But to this he did not in
effect conflne himself The evidence or
gross fraud somewhere was conclusive,
to him as to every fair minded observer
Either there was a mOnstrous m1scount
at first, or there was wholesale sru1-
fng Of the ballot boxes between the
original count and the recount The
justice chose to believe the latter, ana
he therefore held that the recount bad
not In fact been a mere recount OK the
ballots which were cast on Election
Day and canvassed in the original
count, but had been also count OF new
ballots which had in some way un-
known got into the boxes. Accord
ingly he refused to order the issuing or
q certificate Of election to the RepuD-
lican claimant and left the Democratic
candidate In possession OF the prtmd
tac5e title to the seat. The case Is now
being carried 10 the full bench OF the
Supreme Court, but its final settlement
will be made by the Senate itself.
Now, the loss of Republican senator
would be regretted. But still more to be
regretted is the ground which has been
given for grave suspicion concerning
the integrity Of elections or Of vote count
ing In that county. 1t is far better to
lose Senator honestly than to keep
or to win one by corrupt methods. 1t
was just such crooked work at the polls
by Democrats which powerfully con-
tAbuted to the expulsion Of that party
from power in New Jersey sixteen years
ago. Nothing could be more damaging
to the Republican party than popular
belief that even in a few places 1t was
practising the same tricks. If the lesson
conveyed In this Justices unique decision
Is taken properly to heart, it may prove
Of saving profit to the party in that
state
New-York tribune., 1910-12-31
A JUDGE OF ELECTIONS.

That was an extraordinary decision
which a justice Of the Supreme Court
of New Jersey made last week In the
case of the disputed election for state
Senator In Ocean County, and it prom
ises, If sustained on appeal, to mark OF
90 far toward making an epoch In the
history of politics and elections In that
state
Three wears ago in Ocean County oc-
Cured notable revolt Of Republica us
against an "old guard" boss, resulting
fn his defeat, and this year similar
movement was made against an unac-
ceptabie candidate. The result was
that the Democratic candidate was
elected. ON the face Of the returns, by
small majority. The defeated Repubii-
can candidate demanded a recount Id
q certain district, which was granted.
Between the time of the election and that
of the recount the ballot boxes are said
10 have been ungUarded and accessible
IN almost any one who wanted to get
at them. When the recount was made
q large number Of Republican ballots
which did not appear TO have passed
through voters hands were found
punched together at the bottom ends OF
the strings, and these In that one dis
trtct were sufficient to change the Dem
ocratic majority Of forty-si1 into a Re
publican majority Of seventy five.
Thereupon the Republican candidate
demanded a certificate Of election.
This demand the Justice denied In the
remarkable deciston TO which we have
referred He was not, OF course, sit
ting In judgment upon the validity OF
the balloting. He was debarred by law
from trying the rights OF the parties
involved or from receiving from outside
Of the ballot box evidence o: fraud in
the election or In the counting of tho
votes His duty WAS purely ministerial
and amounted 10 nothing moro than

Ill their terms. It might Be suggested
that the Tinted SfAtA6 was understood

I'll their terms. It might Be suggested
that the United States was understood
to be an exception to the rule, and that
"all nations meant all other nations but
not this, were It not that the same article
OF the treaty declares that the Suez
Canal rules are substantially adopted
and those rules do not make any such e1-
ception in favor Of any nation. 1t Is oo-
vious, therefore, that the bearings OF the
treaties upon the question OF tolls need
to be carefully considered, In order that
we may not be subjected to any imputa-
ton Of breach Of faith.
It Is manifestly desirable that the
canal shall be made n profitable as pos
eible to this country and to its com.
merce II is equally certain that every
thing In connection with 1t must be done
with scrupulous regard for our treaty

LET THE GOOD WORK GO OEf

The turning down Of Grady is only a
beginning of the good work that muse
be done IL the Democratic party Is to
put on a fair face toward the public nt
the coming legislative session In his
wrath Grady says he Will refuse ap-
pointment TO the chairmanship OF any
committee Of the Senate. So much the
better. II there is to be any such clean
up as Governor Dix Is pledged to. he
should not be permitted to be chairman
of any committee.
But Grady is only one, and there are
others not one whit better than he
There were five Democratic Senators
who voted for Aids, and there are two
or three more who are still IN Office
who voted against the antfgambi1g
leyislation. There are, therefore half q
dozen or more men who have stood be-
side Grady throughout his scandalous
leadership. who typify everything he
typifies. and who constitute the Demo
cratic "old guard" The Senate Will
wear no better aspect II Grady is simply
showed aside and his partners are made
chairmen OF ali its important CON-
mittees-
We do not know whether Governor
Dix has asserted his right as Demo
cratic leader or whether Murphy Was
impelled simply by the public protest TO
shelye his old protkge Grady; but Who
ever is responsible his task Is only just
hegrn. There should be an effective pro-
test against organizing the Senate with
the Sullivans, Cullen, Frswley, McManus
and other members Of the ''old guard
at the head Of the important commit
tees. Let the good work 60 on.
