Knocked Senseless by Blow.

While at work in the basement of

morning, Gerald Duncan who is en-
ployed by the Gas Company, let a
ten inch wrench slip, it flying off
and striking young Duncan in the
forehead so forcibly as to make him
unconscious. However, the gas man
was quickly revived and was again
at work. The only perceivable re-
suit of the accident is a very beau
tiful lump on his handsome forehead.

REPORT.

Those who are working for the
elimination Of bossism in politics
have every reason to feel encour-
aged by the result in Camden coun-
ty. While it is true that the Repub-
lican machine, headed by David
Baird, won a complete victory and
Baird has retained his mastery Of
the situation for the time being, yet
the fact that there are those who
have dared to challenge his suprem-
acy and vote against candidates dis
tated by him means that the begin
ming Of the end has come to the
Baird regime in South Jersey.
Heretofore it has been almost a
crime for anyone to dare oppose
David Baird in that section. He
used to claim thai his baliwick was
all of New Jersey south of the
Shrewsbury. Slowly but surely he
had been forced to fall back until
this year he has had to fight to hold
his own even in Camden. Such a
thing has not yet been heard of be-
fore in many years.
1t was hardly to be supposed that
Baird could be unseated at the first
stroke. We well remember the
struggle that took place in Middle
sex to GUST Theodore Strong from
the bossism of the Republican party
here. 1t began with the Fordyce
campaign for the nomination of SEN
ator, and Strong with his machine
won. The fight, however, opened
the eyes of the people. They realized
that there were some who were not
afraid to tackle the boss, and Strong
has been going down ever since until
at the present time. aside from his
seat in the state committee which he
will doubtless lose at the expiration
of his present term, he has no office
whatever. While there are those
who still look upon him as their
leader, the rank and file of the party
realize that Republican success is
impossible with Theodore Strong
bossing the campaign.
1t has been a long time coming in
Camden county, largely because
Baird is much more clever in play
ing the game than was Strong, yet
the signs cannot be misread. The
campaign in Camden for the recent
primary means that Baird is DOOM
ed. The people of South Jersey are
slowly arousing themselves and it is
only a question of time when the
Republican party will shake off this
as it is Kidding itself of all the
,thers.

PEOPLE ARE HEARD FROM.

Il IACL LIZ In AtC-A |
With the reports from the
primaries of Middlesex county COM
plete some idea can be had Of the
result of the election. There al
be no doubt that the new election
law is a complete success. Changes
may be made as a result of expert
ence gained, but this was to be X
pected as no such measure was ever
made perfect at it's first passage. 1t
is surprising that there are not
changes necessary than there are.
The ballot is a very simple II and
the voters readily fall into the
method of putting the X after the
names of the various ones for whom
they wish to vote.
Perhaps the greatest feature is
the great run made by ome of the
candidates not endorsed by the
county organization. Under the old
method the organization had every
thing their OWL way. A man stood
no chance whatever of receiving a
regular nomination without getting
the endorsements of the party lead
ers. Today, however, it is plain that
any citizen who desires to run for
office may do so and he stands a
good chance of becoming a regular
party nominee for the election in
November.
We have only to refer to the great
run made by Leayy for assembly,
Flynn for corone and Fallon for
freebooter. 1t shows that under the
present law, as new as it is. the
county organization cannot dictate
as it formerly did. While Flynn is
the only one of the three here men
toned who were not endorsed by the
county organization, to receive the
nomination, yet the great strength
shown by both Fallon and Leavy
proved that the people are voting
for their own choice regardless of
endorsements.
It is noticed that the lowest man
for the Democrat assembly nomina-
ton who was endorsed by the coun-
ty organization, received but 312
more votes than Leavy. For free
holder Fallon received 2,131 votes
and Flynn for coroner bested Hirner,
who was endorsed by the ~organiza-
ton, by 962 votes. AS soon as the
citizens have It thoroughly impress
ed upon them that endorsements by
county organizations r not neces-
sary to success, the sooner will indie
pendent men step forward and enter
the race. Likewise, as the voters
learn thatNN~~3 have a chance to
name their - ticket they will be
Perth Amboy evening news., 1911-09-29

inclined to go to the primary and
vote for the men they desire without
taking into consideration who has
the endorsement Of the party organi-
cation.
The result Tuesday cannot help
but encourage everyone who is look
ing for a free expression of opinion
by the voters. The people cannot
be expected to become familiar with
such radical changes as have taken
place in our politics in any one or
two years. There is a striking con-
trast between the present primary
and the old method, when a few
leaders announced that the primary
of their party would be held between
certain hours on a certain night in
some back room where a cigar box
was placed on a table, and a few of
the ward workers came in and went
through the form Of voting for the
delegates for a convention. Who
ever heard, in the old days, of hav-
ing a primary conducted along the
lines of a regular election, with bal
lot boxes and election officers in
charge? Whoever then heard of an
effort being made to get out the
voters to express their preference
for candidates? Times have changed
and a great Improvement has taken
place.
The people are not yet familiar
enough with their power to take ad-
vantage of it. Tuesdays election
shows that they are beginning to see
the light and the great run made by
those who were not endorsed by the
organization proves that the time
is rapidly approaching when such
endorsements will mean no more
than the mere announcement that a
man is seeking the nomination for
office.
