FROM POST TO PILLAR.

N the wobbfng support given to DR. Wilson in his crusade on
majority rights In this State and on democratic principles
~e 1t is now contended that DIR. Wilson "is not the special adyo
cate of James E. MARITIME" He is only "upholding the principle
of the Democracy" This silly remark is significant at least of one
thing, namely, a realization of the farcical character of DR.. Wilson's
candidate as an aspirant for the United States Senate. DR.. Wilson
has all along been appIauded by the same oracle as the special
champion of New jerseys exponent of freetrade and free-suver
doctrines, and the candidate himself was held up as the ideal
senator until he made his speech at the Wilson meeting in Jersey
City. Eulogy of the candidate himself ceased then, and there is
an obvious desire to separate the Governor elect from his protege,
to shift DR.. Wilson's grounds and make him appear TO be cham
pionfng a Democratic principle not a candidate. But where and
how and under what circumstances was this Democratic principle
promulgated? Who was responsible for 1t? Where and when was
it Endorsed by, the Democratic party, or by any other party, in
these United States? There has been much downright drfvel on
the DIR. Wilson side of the senatorial question, but it has been
mostly hysterical and lackadaisical. But here we find pratng
about a "principle" that nobody ever heard of or imagined and
that no sane voter in the land could indorse. But this is merely
shifting from post to pillar. DR.. Wilson is committed to his can
didate. There is no getting away from that. The candidate is not
toEbe turned into a nebulous principle" to hide his identity.

HOW THE STATE FINANCES STAND.

NV EW JERSEY has large financial resources, and therefore there
Am should always be ample funds provided for all the necessary
expenses of State government. The two principal sources OF
State income are the railroads and the miscellaneous corporations.
Ofthe grand total of receipts by the State treasury, amounting to
$3.50. 1855. &c, no less than 6315, 63217 was contributed from these
two sources. The collateral inheritance tax of this State is a mild
and several other States the inheritance taxes figure to a much
larger extent in the States revenues. In former years, when the
large corporations and trusts were gathering under the protecting
wing of New Jerseys laws, the fees for incorporation received by
the secretary of state ran up as high as 100000 a year. Last year
the total received was $157, 90S.15, showing a considerable falling off
in the industry. There is noted this year, also, some decrease in the
taxes paid by the miscellaneous corporations, and the outlook is for
much larger decreases in the near future. The ordinary disburse-
ments of the State treasury last year were 81, 7994 Al. 80, showing an
in the extraordinary expenses, but it is significant that the ordinary
disbursements should show this increase. Comptroller West est
mates S5,2O537O as the amount of receipts from all sources by the
state treasury for the present fiscal year. This is only a rough
guess. The Legislature last winter appropriated $5O725927l for
expenses this year, s. the comptrollerst estimate of receipts for the
wear exceeds the statutory appropriations for the year by $132,
7772 "a. There was a clear cash balance of ST. ,043SO in the treas,
on October 81, making a total of $1,741,s21, upon which the
present Legislature can draw for supplemental appropriations to be
expended during the present year. II the Legislature shall make
anse of S7OO 600 of this available money there will still be in the
lion dollars, and in all probability a much greater amount. But
there r. urgent demands upon the State treasury, and the legisla-
ture can better be engaged in supplying all reasonable demands
than in nursing a big treasury surplus. Half a million dollars clear
balance is amply sufficient for treasury purposes.

= TRUST CASES IN II SUPREME COURT.

6ma HE hearings by the United States Supreme Court at Washing
ron in the tobacco trust and Standard Oil cases, appealed to
the court and long pending, are the most important that
have been given by the court in years. Upon the courts decisions
in these cases depends the future policy of the government in re
spect to trusts and combinations in restraint of trade. If these two
giant corporations are not trusts within the meaning of the Sher
man at then there is no such thing as a trust, and the government
must, perforce, abandon it's prosecutions. But the pointed queries
by the justices addressed to the counsel in their pleadings have a
significance. In the tobacco trust hearing yesterday they cut under
the elaborate pleas addressed to the court and in several instances
stripped them of their sophistry. The business world has waited
for more than a year for these trust cases to be definitely decided,
and the prevailing belief in the money centres has been that the
Judgment of the court would sustain the government. To a large
extent the effect of such a decision has already been discounted.

4Doe. wilson Want to seat a Joker

"DOes Wilson Want to Seat a Joker
To the Editor of the Evening Star;
AS a resident of this city for thirty
Ave years and n who feels that all
public questions here are somewhat
personal, | wish TO express my views
on the present senatorial controversy.
The fight by this time has narrowed
down to the question: VIII the Demo
cratic legislators seriously consider the
walls of some Republican and pro
gressive" editorial writer's? Those are
the men who are really leading the
fight, and many of my business asso-
ciates agree with me that these papers
are certainly fanatical, judging from
the news columns as well.
DR.. Wilson made a foolish pledge be-
fore his election. He promised to do all
in his power to put the primary candi-
date in the United States Senate. Why
should DR.. Wilson promise to change
of the United States? He could have
promised to work to bring about a
change. Evidently the governor-elect
has taken and still continues to take
himself too seriously. He does not
comprise the entire lawmaking body Of
the United States by any means, and
recent speeches of his show that he Is
beginning to realize this fact, though
he is slow in admitting 1t.
Unless they possessed absolutely posi-
tive evidence a number of gentlemen
would not put into the doctors mouth,
"the primary Is a farce" MARITIME Is a
joke "the Democratic party played a
joke on itself by nominating James e.
MARITIME, n it is up to us to swallow
the joke Undoubtedly the men who
say that Doctor Wilson made these as
sertions know full we'll that the Gov
ernor-elect cannot truthfully deny
them.
A careful. cool analysis of thu situa-
ton reveals the fact that Governor
elect Woodrow Wilson, realizing what
a white elephant MARITIME is, has been
trying to square himself with his
friends who wanted 10 know how he
could declare himself for MARITIME, "the
joke of the State"

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
False alarm fiends who are perform
ing in Newark should be dealt with
in a n to make them realize the
seriousness of the offense.
They should be taught a lesson that
they will remember. and the fact that
the fire alarm system is no mans
plaything should be impressed upon
them.
The answering Of a false alarm might
bring about an accident. It's bad
enough when there is fire for the en-
gines and trucks to go tearing through
the street, but TO make the run to
satisfy some idiot, whose sense of hui
nor consists of this sort of a joke, !
say something should be done.

B~oettner,s Mistake.

To the Editor OF the Evening Star:
A~ssemblyman Frank Boettner in ms
letter to former Senator Smith said
that he (Boettner) had written many
of his supporters and from them had
received answers which influenced him
in changing his opinion on the sena-
torial question. l worked and voted
for Mr.. Boettner, and thought that my
vote would aid in electing a man to
the Assembly who would vote for
James Smith, jr., 70" the United States
Senate. Republican campaign orators
declared that If you elect Wilson you
put the two 'Jims' In control OF the
Democratic party" This statement
was never refuted by the hen presi-
dent of Princeton. Wilson was elect
ed. and I, like thousands of others, ex-
peoted to see Mr.. Smith elected senator
without opposition. Mr.. Boettner has
made a grave political mistake and he
will fully realize It some day.

FORTyFYING THE ISTHMIAN CANAL.

IN I least seveneighths of the people of the United States believe
EA that the Panama Canal should be fortified against attack.
0 The canal will extend our coast line by uniting the Atlantic
and Pacific at the isthmus, and why WI should leave this vital point
Of our coasts unprotected and exposed to any enemy, while fortify-
ing all the rest of our coast, is beyond comprehension. For our
small navy. which must protect both the Atlantic and the Pacific
frontier. there must be quick communication between the two oceans
and in time of war 1T would be suicidal to leave that waterway open
to an enemy or permit it to be closed by a hostile feet. Every
consideration of national policy, every reason of national defense,
dictates that we must have exclusive control of the canal In time Of
" and that we cannot have unless the canal Is fortified. The
enormously expensive work that the nation is now engaged in may
at any time, if not protected by Notifications, be the means of our
national undoing.

Another Police Precinct Needed.


To the Editor of the Evening Star:
The need of a new police precinct in
Newark is evident. The record of the
First precinct during the past year,
showing that the precinct made $50
more arrests than the year before,
shows that that precinct is burdened
with too much work.
A police station in a large city
should be limited to at least seventy
five men. In New York city there are
only forty men to a precinct. In his
city the First precinct has around 1870
men. With this large number 1t is i'm
possible for the men to be properly
handled. More precincts, with fewer
men to a precinct, would work wonders
in bringing about the needed reform in
the protection OF this city and her
citizens. POLICE.
