After stating that the whole Fire

sponsible for one day off in eight and
thai the Mayor was responsible for one
day off in six, he ridiculed the idea
that Mr. Gnichtel gave the fremen the
increase in pay. He declared that this
was done by the referendum vote of
the people and that former Assembly

the bill in the Legislature and that he
was presented with a silver loving cup

LIFELONG REPUBLICAN
OUT FOR DIR. WILSON.

PLAINFIELD. Nov. 5.-At the Negro
Democratic mass-meeting last night,
called by 4. %. Norwood. a New Idea
man, former Mayor L. V. Randolph, a
veteran of tne CiviF War and a life
long Republican, declared he Moull
vote for Woodrow Wilson. He urged
his hearers to vote the local Demo
cratic ticket. headed by G. w. V.
Moy, Republican candidate for Mayor.
He said he had voted the Republican
ticket all his life, but found the party
had resorted to methods that he could
not support.
James E.. MARITIME in an open letter
last night announced that he would
support the Democratic local ticket
from the top down. This is not unusual
for him, except for the fact that a Re-
publican heads this ticket this time
for Mayor. 1t is said to be the first
time for him to vote for a Republican,
and he says he does so because this
Republican has come out from the
party because of its ring rule.

GN|CHTEL HELD
Up AS POLITICAL
ACROBAT|C STAR
Was Good Democrat Until Re-
publicans Took Lead, Is
--latest Allegation.
.A>
"a
.NM

Edward f. Gnichtel, Republican can
didate for mayor, according to the
speakers at the various Democratic
mass-meetings last night, is a "politi-
cal topper" DIR. Charles T. Kraemer
told the audiences at five gatherings
that Mr.. GnichteI was a Democrat and
a member Of the Jeffersonian Club, but
Topped into the Republican band
wagon when that party came into
power. 1t was not long thereafter, said
the doctor, that Mr.. Gnichtel got the
contract with the State to be furnished
with prison-made brushes. John Fl.
Mclean, at the several meetings,
brought out more of Mr.. Gnichteis
business and political career
Mr.. Mclean went over the record Of
Mr.. Gnichtel while he was a member
of the Fire Board. He also had some
revelations to make concerning the
work lone by the w. II. Drummond
Company, a plumbing concern, of
which Mr.. Gnichtel. is president, for the
fire department, and reiterated his dec
laration that the Republican candidate
was a dealer in prison-made goods.
DIR. Kraemer tated that the records
of the Jeffersonian Club proved that
Mr.. Gnichtel was a member from June
20, 1891, until March 20. 1894. and that
to become a member he had signed an
application blank stating that he be-
lieved in the principles and doctrines
of Democracy. He said that former
Senator Michael II. Barrett acted as
chairman in the place of President
John r. Hardin, who was absent when
Mr.. Gnichtel was voted a member of
the club. and that at the same time
DIR. William P. Eagleton and Fire Chief
William C. Ashley became members of
the club.
In the fall OF 1898 the Republicans
Newark evening star and Newark advertiser. [volume] (Newark, N.J.) 1909-1916, 1910-11-05

got into power DR.. Kraemer con-
tinued, land in the spring of 1894 Mr..
Gnichtel resigned from the club to get
on the Republican band wagon. A man
who takes a step of this kind must
have a reason; by and by we find that
reason when we hear that Mr.. Gnichtel
got the contract with the State to be
furnished with prison-made brushes"
DR.. Kraemer drew a comparison be-
tween the two candidates for Mayor
and the parties which they represent.
"The Republican party" he said, has
made pledges Inc promises. but has
never kept them. That the tax rate
has been low during the Democratic
administration in this city is well
known. but our Republican friends
have boosted ii up again, and if it had
not been for the Mayor ard the law
/ department they would be $2.15 this
year instead of $1.93. When the tracks
Of the Lackawanna were to be elevated
and depressed the Republicans gave
the rich railroad $1,000, 600 toward that
work, the expense of which ought to
rave been carried alone by that cor
poration.
Now let us see what the Mayor has
done. The Prudential Insurance Com
pany has a large fund of nearly $780,
900, 900 which never had been taxed.
The Mayor and the law department
thought that this fund should be taxed.
and only recently the Supreme Court
decided that the tax must be PAID, n
the city will receive, interest and all
included, nearly $1,000 900 as tax. For
many years the Republicans had a
chance to do the same thing; why
haven't they lone it?"
Mr.. Mclean laid stress upon the fact
that the Republican party, in defending
the high tariff, used the argument that
the tariff was to protect the working
men in this country from the pauper
labor of Europe,
Competition of Prison Labor.
"If that argument is good-which it
Is not-wh good will it do us if Mr.
Gnichtel places prison labor in compe-
tition with us? l have documentary
proof for everything l am going to
say. When Mr.. Gnichtel was a mem

roof of engine house No. 5 was leaking,
and the Drummond Company, of which
Mr.. Gnichtel is president, was ordered
to repair the roof of the comparatively
new building. They took off the slate
roof and put a new tin roof on it.
That is a matter of record.

Health on the Farm,
(Greenville NeWs.)

(Greenville News.)
According to statistics complied by
the government, it would seem that
life on the farm is little safer than
life in the city. 1t is shown thai liv-
ing next to nature wards off disease
and death, although probably a lit
tie more conducive to suicide than
living in cities.
The principal factor in favor of
the farmer is his freedom from tu-
berculosis, due undoubtedly to his
outdoor life. In 1908, for instance;
IN the eighteen States covered by the
hgures. the white plague was respon-
Sible for 1913 per cent OF the total
deaths, while only 1876 per cent of
the farmers who died that year were
victims of the disease.
Even more marked was the dis
parity in the case of Bright's disease.
Only 512 per cent Of the farmers
deaths resulted from it, while it
claimed some per cent Of the total
deaths. In the case Of heart dis
case and penumonia. there was also
a difference in the death rate favor
ing the farmer. On the other hand,
owing probably to insanitary condi-
tlons on many farms, and without q
aouDt IN many cases due to improper
location OF water supply, typhoid fe-
yer claimed more victims among the
farmers than among city folks. Can
Ger, too, made greater inrOads among
me farmers than among the city res
ldents, the figures being 5.%25 per
cent and 4.95 per cent, respectively.
The most startling fact arrived at,
however, by the compilation, is that
farmers seem to have been more
prone to suicide than other people,
lor ".I23 per cent Of their deaths
were self-inficted, while 3.5 per cent
or the complete mortality list COM
prlsed deaths by suicide.
