Nearly 100 Per Cent. Aldrich

United States Senator John Kean, of
New jersey, whose term expires March
4th, 1911, is a candidate for reelection,
but is ~encountering heavy opposition.
And one of the grounds OF opposition is
his subserviency to the dictation to Sem
ator Aldrich during the consideration
of the new Tariff law in the Senate.
The record IS quoted 10 show that on
the 1919 decisive roll calls on the Tariff
bill in the Senate, MI. Kean answered
nearly every time and voted against
Aldrich only once. This makes him
very nearly 100 pei cent Aldrich.
This record is higher than that of
Senator DUPONT, Of Delaware. The
latter voted with Aldrich LOG times and
against him eight times, making his
record about SO per cent Aldrich.
There is not a great deal of difference,
no viewer, between nearly 100 per cent
Aldrich and SO per cent Aldrich. If
Senator Kean, of New Jersey, deserves
defeat for his subserviency to the dicta-
tion of 'Aldrich, SO does Senator DUPONT
of Delaware. One is only a little more
than 6 per cent worse than the other.-

The Mccall Campaign Publicity bill
has been so amended as to provide Tor
the publication ofcampaign contributions
AFTER election, instead OF BEFORE N
AErER election. Publicity OF contrlbu-
lion after-electlons is regarded by Demo-
Gratis as something like locking the door
of the stable after the horse has been
stolen. Senator Burrows, of Michigan,
Chairman of the Senate Committee ON
Privileges and Elections very kindly ex-
planned why the provision for publicity
II contributions before election had been
stricken from the Mccall bill. eli" said
Senator Burrows, eve were to give out
the list of contributors prior to an cleo
ton it would mean that INSCRIPTIONS
newspapers and persons would take ad-
vantage of the information thus dis
closed and proceed to denounce the
candidate on the strength ofthecharacter
of the contributions made to his cam
paign." In other words, if the voters
were permitted to know who was putting
up the money for the candidates COM
paign they might defeat him. Could a
stronger argument be presented for pub
licity BEFORE election as well as after
election? Think it over.

Shad for New York

With the purpose of stocking local
waters the Aquarium is Matching 1,000,-
600 shad eggs brought here from the Gov
eminent hatchery at Havre de Grace, Md.
No reflection is intended upon the North
River shad by introducing fry of foreign
origin, New York has got ever that kind
of local pride, 1t takes its shad-like
most other foods-where it can get them
and wishes for more.
The activity OF the fishermen, the pol
luton OF the river waters and disturbance
of the spawning beds have all helped of
recent years to reduce the catch of this
delectable fish. For any act of paternal-
istic government that will replenish the
supply a grateful people will return de-
vout thanks. Prolific as they are by
nature, it is only by artificial incubation
that Atlantic coast rivers from Florida
north are enabled in season to produce
the shad for which the city markets
clamor.
But why hatch only 1000, 900 shad
eggs? After the little fishes are cast upon
the waters and return after many days in
grown-up sizes, how many will have sur
vived and Melted to be served up to New
York's growing population? What will
200, 900 or 400,0 600 shad be four years
hence among 1880, 600 people. Forum
ately the Government is Matching millions
more of shad eggs elsewhere, and does it
every year.-New York World.

CLIFF VEIN GROWS
 RICHER
AS DEPTH IS OBTAINED VEIN WlOeNS AND ORE STEADILY
 INCREASES IN VALUE.

VALDEZ, Nov. 17.-That the ore of he Valdez district goes down and increases in richness with depth is assured if the Cliff mine may be taken as a standard by which to judge other properties of this vi cinity, practically all of which are tdentiCal in character with that of the now famous property.
 The shaft now being sunk on this property has reached depth of more than 70 feet and the vein in the bottom of the shaft has wid- med to more than three feet. Not only has the vein widened, but the ore carries values far in excess of . hose found on the surface, running in places to thousands of dollars per ton, and to this fact is due the steadily increasing amounts of the weekly cleanups.
 At a meeting of the directors of the Cliff Mining company a dividend of 20 cents a share was declared on he capital stock of the company, November 15.
 This is the sixth dividend declar- ed by the company since the mill was put in operation April 26 of his year. The first dividend, de clared in June was 9 cents per share. The July dividend was 10 cents per share, while the August September and October dividends were 15 cents share.
 The November dividend of 20 cents share makes the total amount of dividends declared s1OO,- 900 or equal to the par value of the capital stock
