some OF GOVERNORS APPOINTMENTS.

Al It'll the selection of a successor to Judge Thomas a. DAVIS,
WV of Essex, resigned, whose term ends in 1913, the Governor
will have the appointment of law judges in five counties
aud district court judges in three counties. He will have no other
appointments to the bench until 1913, when a judge of the Errors
Court and seven Common Pleas judges, and a successor to
Judge Malcolm MacLear, of Newark, will be appointed. The most
important appointment next winter will be that OF a secretary of
state IN place of Samuel d. Dickinson, while Supreme Court Clerk
William Riker. jr. will also give place to d Democratic successor.
State Banking and INSURANCE. Commissioner Vivian NJ. Lewis Will
likewise retire. These and other appointments by the Governor vii.
be watched for with great interest to see how near they correspond
TO the recent change in the presidency of the State Fish and Game
Commission, which was taken from a nonpartisan expert in fish
and game, who had greatly benefited the State, to give to a political
convert.

Blame for Bad Prison Food.

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
A severe reflection on the penal ad-
mjnistration of New Jersey is seen in
the admission of a State officer thai the
food served to convicts in the State
prison at Trenton was sour on several
occasions. There are several modes
of punishment provided for criminals
in confinement, but impure food is not
among them. AS human beings they
are entitled to humane treatment, and
Furthermore ample provision is made
to supply wholesome food to the con-
victs.
The same official who makes the ad-
mission declares that state of affairs
was due to the fact hat the refrigerator
and other kitchen appliances were out
of order. 1t is the duty of the off,
Gals in charge to see that adequate
equipment replaces that which is worn

10 the Editor of the Evening Star:
Here is something / would like to see
discussed in the wspapers Is a total
abstainer from anything a person to be
admired or pitied? Let me be specific.
1 know a man who does not drink, has
never touched a drop of liquor. Re-
Gently l met a man who does not
smoke. has never smoked, l know
another man who does not play cards
for money, has never done SO. These
men do not drink, smoke or gamble be-
cause they are afraid that once they
start they will fast go down hill.
These men are often called strong
willed and courageous. Many persons
admire this type. What | want to
know is this: If a man is never
tempted can he be considered strong
for not falling? If a man never tasted
a thing he has no desire for it. If
he does not know the delight of a
smoke, the pleasure of a friendly game
of cards or the soothing effect of a
cordial after dinner, or a glass of wine
with his meals, how can he be con-
sidered strong and courageous for not
desiring these things?
Another thing. 1t seems to me thai
a man who is. afraid that he cannot
control his appetite is a weak man. A
strong-minded man, it seems to me, car
curb his passions and know when to
stop. / believe that the man that is
moderate in all things is the desirable
man. What do the readers think?

sETBAck EoR THE WILSON cANDIDAcY.

NJ ONEMBER Is was the date and Atlanta, Ga, the place for
NW the first of a series of demonstrations to boom Woodrow
Wilson for the Democratic presidential nomination. Emf
nent party speakers from various States were invited to take part
ard o had consented. The announcement is now made that the
demonstration has been indefinitely postponed, owing to the failure
of Wilson boomers to secure important speakers from other States
who had agreed to attend and who subsequently sent their regrets.
The 4us ascribed for this change of mind is the dampening effect
of tbe recent election in New Jersey upon the Wilson candidacy.
The road of Il presidential candidate is always strewn with thorns.
There is nj primrose path of dalliance to a presidential nomination
and TO the White House. The prospects born in dowery May may
bo ycubered in bleak November. The sudden chill for the Wilson
boom on November I apparently has developed into more pro
nonnced symptoms even in Il climate as mild and salubrious as that
of Georgia.

cLAM EoR A STATE NORMAL SCHOOL.

TTA OR several years the journal of Jersey City has been obsessed
with the notion that the State should pay the cost of the
establishing of a normal school for the training of teachers
in Hudson county. The Journal speaks mainly for Jersey City.
This plea was urged before the State erected the normal school
at Upper Montcar for the benefit of all of Northern New Jersey.
That school, which the Journal declared to have been established
lin the woods" is now oyercrowded with pupils and must be en-
larged, showing it is located in the right spot. Ii would be bad
enough policy for the State to place Il normal school at Il railroad
terminus and within a ferryboat distance from the metropolis, with
all its distractions and temptations. That would be one fatal OBJ
lection to such a location. But, again, a normal school on the Hud-
son would be almost exclusively for the benefit of the vicinage. 1t
would relieve Jersey City of the expense of its teachers training
school. But that local consideration should not outweigh every
thing else with the Legislature.

Praises Moving Pictures.

10 the Editor of the Evening Star
Apropos to all the talk about the
evils of moving pictures, allow me the
following: Generally, the evil does not
lie in the picture, but in the environ
ments. To entertain the eye is Il
greater delight than to entertain the
ear. Good, wholesome pictures SHOULD
be encouraged, not discouraged, and
the surroundings where they are ex-
hibited should be made and kept free
from the very possibility of evil.
1 would like to add that for Christ
mas entertainments in the churches
and Sunday schools, where the old
time-worn programs r no longer at
tractive, and a change is desired.
there is no more pleasing way to en-
terrain the children and satisfy them
than to give them some good moving
pictures of Santa Claus and films bear
ing on the Christmastide.

DAMAGE COST TO THE RAILROADS.

m CONSIDERING the cost to the railroad companies of killing
" and manning people in the damages they pay and the ex-
pense of lawyers and claims adjusters, they might well
afford to expend many millions in safeguarding travel. In the last
three years it cost the railroads about 1900 for every person
killed, over 81, 400 for every person permanently disabled in part
and about 81, 200 for every person permanently and totally disabled.
This only represents the actual damages. During the last three
wears $50 railroads paid ~$3,S33,979 in death claims and more than
$26O0,O00 in injury claims. Simply from a business point of view
this big expense is inexcusable. 1t should be remembered also that
HE laws of MANY of the States favor the railroads in damage suits.
The doctrine of contributory negligence in New Jersey has saved
them millions and permitted them to operate trains without the
least protection to the public at dangerous grade crossings. AS big
as the annual damage bill is, therefore, it might be doubled or
trebled by stricter laws and to a point where the railroad com
rany would be compelled to abolish its grade crossings.

GOVERNMENT-PAID CANAL RATES.

@ ECRETARY OF WAR STIMSON'S suggestion that Congress
% appropriate the money to pay the tolls of American mer-
chant ships through the Panama canal means no more than
what seven great commercial nations now do in respect to their
own commerce passing through the Suez canal. These govern
ments will inevitably reimburse their merchant marine in the
same way in the use of the Panama canal, and obviously American
commerce will be at IA greater disadvantage than it now is if our
government does not adopt the same policy. The primary pur-
pose of the Panama canal is use by American ships, and they
should at least be ON equal terms with the ships of foreign nations.

who enjoyed the privilege, and he
thought they never ought to be allowed
