OlQ before, Out the people OF New Jer-
sey. who had evidently expected more
grew tired Of his utterances. and
at the recent election manifested their
disappointment by electing a republi-
can legislature. To cap the climax.
the New England Society Of Orange
held q meeting the other night. and
after an acrimonious discussion which
lasted until after midnight. passed n
resolution with nine preambles. CALL
ing upon Governor Wilson to drive out
or exterminate the mosquitoes which.
as the resolution states, "cast reproach
upon the fair name Of the state" The
resolution does not suggest any meth
cd and does not indicate whether tho
members OF the n. E. S. expect the
governor to talk the mosquitoes out
Of the state or dispose Of them in
some other way. Those intimately
acquainted with the character, size
and number Of the New Jersey mo
squitoes fully realize what a hercuiean
task 1t Is which the members Of the
society mentioned go nonchalently
saddle upon the governors shoulders.
This ~suffragette agitation seems t o
have a demoralizing effect upon wo-
men OF all sorts and conditions. The
other day n Of these rampant suf-
fragettes was the complainant in an
assault and battery case before a po-

to everybody, including the Judge, tina,
IF you insist with your impudence iii
put you in jail"
Il just guess you won't, and I'd like
to see you try it, was the militant
sufragette's retort. whereupon the
Judge sentenced her to thirty minutes
in jail and ordered a police officer to
remove her from the court room. The
assault and battery charge was
promptly dismissed. as the judge evil
IDENTIFY considered the woman's SASH
ness a sufficient provocation.

outvote her. had it not been for her
aEeressiveness and her o~bstreperous
tactics, which made all progress i'm
possible and threatened to wear the
dHu endurance OF the other
members to a fragile.
In their despair the mule members
OF the board came together and unani-
