An Unwarranted omissIon.

Attention has been called to the
serious omission by the biographer Of
Mr.. Burke, the Democratic candidate
for the Assembly. While noting the
many public services that he has rend-
cred and is rendering to the public he
omits entirely to mention the import
ant services Of sewer commissioner,
Mr.. Burke being one Of the four com

Morris Plains, Oct. "A, 1910
EDITOR THE CHRONICLE:
Referring to your article relative to
the establishment of a tuberculosis
hospital at Morris Plains, beg leave to
say that it would certainly be impos-
ing to much on the homes and proper
ty of the people Of this section to place
an institution of this kind among us.
The location of the state asylum here
will always have more or less bad eff
feet upon property values, keeping
people away who would otherwise 10
cate. II in addition to this another
hospital for tuberculosiS patients is
established, it will kill any great de-
velopment, especially near the railroad
station where it is proposed to erect
the bu ilding. Morris Plains is now in
the midst Of well promised boom,
but this proposition will end that for
a long time to come. l am not the
only one who has this opinion as every
one has practically the same views on
the matter.

PALACE THEATRE OPENS.
Two Performances Monday Evening
Before Crowded Houses.

Two Performances Monday Evening
Before Crowded Houses.
With packed houses at both perfor-
mances and with hundreds Of people
c amoring for admittance the Palace
theatre, Morristown's ! new amusement
house, made an auspicious start, on
Monday evening. Manager Robert
Ellis had everything about the build
ing in spick and span condition and
the compliments were many that were
|showered upon him and Proprietor a.
Esposito.
During the first performance Mr..
Ellis addressed the audience explain
ing few points regarding The policy
of the house and then introduced Mr..
Esposito. The latter gentleman was
roundly applauded upon his entrance
but failed to make a speech, Mr.. Ellis
asserting that Mr.. Esposito was too
full for utterance. His honor, Mayor
Theodore Ayers, was then introduced
and in a neat address complimented
the proprietor and manager for their
success in providing fine theatre and
assured the aud ence that the build
ing was the safest building in Morris
town for amusement purposes, he con
sidering ii very nearly tirepsoof. The
mayor was given an ovation when he
stepped upon the stage and the thund-
ering applause not only pleased AMI
gratified him but assured him of the
good feeling and respect that Morris
town people bear him.
Moving pictures and vaudeville COM
prised the entertainment, the former
being of an unusually high order. OF
the vaudeville 1t can only be said that
it was the best given in Morristown
for years. Myston with his soprano
and baritone voices pleased. while the
singing of Tom Bracken of pictured
ballads was much too eurtailed, for by
its applause the audience demanded
more.
Gruet and Gruet presented clean
and really funny blackface and musi-
cal act. The big hit of the night was
Hite and Morris's production of 9 The
Eight Merry Youngsters in the Last
Day Of School" and the spectators
laughed until the tears came. Several
songs In this act we're sung well. The
orchestra worked la d and plea ed.

OGDENSBURG. n. Y, Oct. 20
John A. Dix. Democratic candidate
for governor. came in for some rather
hard knocks from eX-President Roose-
welt today. Starting in at Syracuse.
Colonel Roosevelt pushed his way
northward until he arrived tOnieht at
Ogdensburg All along the way he
kept up his attack on the head OF the
Democratic ticket With it all he
coupled praise of Mr.. Dix's Republi-
can opponent. Henry l.. Stimson.
Colonel Roosevelt carried his attack
on Mr.. Dix a point further today by
asserting that the records of the sec
rotary of state at Albany proved that
the Standard Wall Paper Company.
with which Mr. Dix is connected, was
virtually identical with the concern
of the same name which went out Of
existence in 1903, and which, it is
claimed. was a part of the wall paper
trust.
He also reiterated his charges
against Tammany Hall and Wall
street and lis denial of the assertion
that "Rooseveltism" is a menace.
The people of nine northern New
York towns gave the colonel cordial
reception today. They filled the
streets and jammed the halls in which
he spoke. His reception here tonight
was the hveliest he has had in the
campaign.
Alton b. Parker who is campaign
ing for Mr.. Dix. happened into Rich

attacking Mr.. Dix in a speech at the
