Christening the Arkansas

Come, gentle reader, along with ME,
To the shores of Jersey Sea.

AS she strrted it on its first trip,
Waters parted it took its first dip
Bright as a trivet. true as line,
Into its cradle of Jersey brine.
What was in thai bottle? tagain ex-
Hope from its throttle nothing was
boozed.
From November til October,
MAY our baby lie IN its cradle sober.
Nav each October as she comes aud
goes
Find her sober and ready to go.
From lever to wheel bridge. to guu,
Turret to Keel and make the run.

pride
Here draw the line. keep it outside,
For if old Bachus gets hold of the
rocker,
Down he will whack us to Jon,es'
locker.
We are proud of our ship she is a

And never nag in doing it right.

The Millyille Republican said yes
terday:
This is Bridgeton's Buiness Mems
Association Outing, and they, were out
in thirty-three automobiles, touring
the county with view of advertising
their city. A band and 150 men, ac-
companied the excursion, blowing the
merits of Bridgeton
On nearly every car could be seen
souvenir, Buy in Bridgeton".
All along the line they scattered
advertisements of their various indus
tries. They also distributed small tin
horns, on which were the words,
BLOW for Bridgeton"
They were scheduled to arrive in
Millville at 9.24. but they reached this
city little ahead of time. After go
ing through the principal streets of
this city. they stopped at the Wealth
erby House for about Is minutes,
hading out souvenirs and advertising
matter.
They left here at $40 with a view
of continuing their journey through
the county to Greenwich, from which
place they returned to their home city.
The committee who had the matter
in charge consisted of J. NJ. Laning.
F. L. Ingles, r. S. Blew. Walter S.
Cummings and George d. Loper
This outing shows that the business
people of Cumberland cOunty's capi-
tai are enterprising and that they are
determined to prove it to the citizens
of the county and community.

to the coalition with Mr.. White, the
backing of a. considerable portion of
the Machine in the Third Ward and
the fight that ensued was the bitterest
that the city has ever known.
The Peoples Republican Organiza-
tion was organized with the earnest
support of many of the beach-front
hotel owners to manage the campaign
and the forces back of White and
Mathis have been credited with spend
ing $4,000 during the eight or nine
weeks of the campaign Barlow, JEFF
fries and Doctor Terry were three of
the most aggressive supporters of the
fight against the Machine.
White and Mathis were defeated and
the resulting breach in the party has
never been fully closed, although
Mathis and many of his followers have
since returned to the Organization
Some of the latter are said to have
furnished room rent receipts and 9TH
er evidence upon which the indict-
ments returned today by the Grand
Jury are recorded
The proprietor of one of the lodg-
ing houses alleged to have been used
for the colonized voters is already I'M
der indictment and may testify for
the prosecution. One of the counts
alleges the purchase of 800 votes.
Former Councilman Whit eentered
into fusion arrangement during the
summer with. the Democratic organi-
zation, the agreement being that the
Democrats would vote for White for
Mayor and DR.. J. 3. Thompson for
president of City Council in return for
the support of Independent Republi-
cans for the Democratic county ticket
I White was defeated for the Repub-
lican mayoralty nomination by Post
master Bacharach and the next day, a
bill of Indictment was recorded
against Mr.. Bacharach in the county
court. Subsequently Mr.. White filed
papers as an Independent Republican
candidate for Mayor and is conducting
an aggressive campaign.

LEADER OF
SENATE TO SPEAK
Will Address Mass Meeting
Tonight.
ELOQUENT L|NGU|ST.
With Him Comes w. H. Brewster
of Essex, Who Will Speak
on National Topics.

The Fourth Ward Republican Mass
Meeting tonight in the Majestic the
atre will take on an Importance that
was not deemed possible until the ar
rival last night of a telegram from
Republican State Chairman Frank o.
Briggs. The telegram was addressed
to Frank S. Mckee, Jr., and an
nounced that two distinguished speak
ers would be here. They are W. H.
Brewster, of Orange, Essex County,
who will talk upon national affairs,
and DR.. John A. Prince, Senator from
Passaic, this year the majority leader
of the Senate, and next years Senate
President should the Republicans
control that body.
The Fourth Ward Republicans had
week ago appealed to State Chair
man Briggs for speakers, and the re-
quest was complied with late by tele-
graph last night.
Mr. Brewster is prominent in poll
tics in Essex County and is said to
be very forceful speaker upon ma
tional topics.
Senator Prince is one of the most
cultured men of the state and has been
prominent in legislative politics. Sen
ator Prince was first member of the
Assembly and was speaker of the
House. Last winter he was the Re-
publican leader of the Senate, and
undoubtedly will be chosen President
in January if his party retains control
of that body.
Senator Prince is a professor of
Columbia College, New York City, and
is a most distinguished linguist. 1t is
said that he can speak twenty-three
different languages fiuently.
Senator Prince will discuss state
policies.
In addition to these speakers there
will be short addresses by the Repub-
lican County candidates and a recep-
tion will be rendered the nominees.
There will also be shown moving pic
lures, and stereoptican pictures of
the Republican candidates here.
The public is urged to be present.
The meeting is entirely free.

tlantic City Indicted for
Election Fraud.

Atlantic City, October 25.-Political
circles, already deeply stirred by the
wholesale indictments returned by the
Reform Grand Jury drawn by Justice
Kalisch's elisors were thrown into a
ferment today when the new Grand
Jury, of which A. H. Darnell, lawyer
and hotel man, is foreman, presented
for election corruption Daniel S.
White, the fusion mayoralty opponent
of Postmaster Harry Bacharach, who
is also under indictment; Overseer of
the Poor Risley Barlow, an active
White adherent; Councilman Walter
j. Buby, owner of the Hotel Dennis,
who retires from Council this year;
Samuel Jeffries, contractor; ex-
Councilman Charles Mathis and DIR.
Edward B. Terry, negro physician.
The October jury was drawn by
Sheriff Johnson and the indictments
were presented to Judge Higbee in the
absence of Justice Kalisch. u
Inc CndTS5S upOu WHICH tuS lnuFSl-
ment were based grew out of the bit
ter councilmanic contest in the Third
Ward in 1909, when White, who had
been refused reelection by the Re-
publican organization, and former
Councilman Mathis opposed Victor
Freisinger, proprietor of Old Vienna,
a boardwalk resort, and William
Malta. license holder.
Mathis also, although formerly an
active Machine man, had also been re-
fused place, upon the regular Repub-
lican ticket. He resigned his seat in
Council during the furry that led to
the appointment of Daniel S. White
by the late Mayor Stoy to fill another
enforced vacancy in the councilmanic
body. Mathis demanded an opportun-
ity to vindicate himself. He carried

DR.. Addison Moore, superintendent
of the famous Rockefeller Bible Glass
when asked by New York World"
writer what was the best rule for sue
ceeding in business, replied:
"If I were to formulate single rule
for succeeding in business l should
say, Find the work you like best, and
then do it with all your might"
Finding the work one likes best is
simple matter, but doing that work
with all ones might is what counts.
This rule applies to all alike-the

Waged on rubber tired wheels bv the
Bridgeton Merchants Association was
all and more than the success hoped
Ior. Everywhere throughout the entire
county the Merchants Run was warm
ly welcomed, and the merchants given
the glad hand. The enterprise of the
business men was impressive and
most fayorably commended.
The thirty-fiye machines, including
the band truck, went over the line
without a mishap and the mechanics
were not once called upon to aid any
fellow in distress.
The nearly one hundred and fifty
afefchants, bankers, professional men
and others who made the trip had
most delightful time.
Weather conditions were ideal. 1t
was a beautiful, crisp October day,
with the bright, warm sunshine tenn
pering the atmosphere delightfully."-.
The first stop was at Millville at
$50 o'clock, and fifteen minute stop
was made on Main street, and crowds
OF people We're gathered by the band
music and there was a big demand
for the printed matters and souvenirs
that We're lavishly distributed by the
enterprising stOrekeepers.
A short stop was made at Maurice
town, which was reached by going
over the Buckshutem road. Follow
ing the Mauricetown stop, the process
sion going over the i'll fated and much
abused Mauricetown bridge, going
through Dorchester to Leesburg and
returning to Dorchester by counter
march
returning the run went through
Mauricetown to Haleyville and then
on to Port Norris, the big oyster town
being reached shortly before noon.
The automobiles were parked in
front of the Davis Hotel, where they
made an impressive picture.
The entire party dined at the Davis
Hotel, where an excellent dinner was
served, and everyone who had been
riding in the cool, crisp air had been
given a splendid appetite. The big
party taxed the hotel capacity to the
utmost
The run through Dividing Creek,
Newport, Cedarville and Fairton, was
the same big event it had been since
the start. Crowds of people were all
along the line of the run and there
was an eager demand for the many
souvenirs and excellent printed mat
ter furnished. The band concerts
were also much enjoyed
No sooner had the horns been dis
tributed along the line of run, than
there was immediate blowing for
Bridgeton.
The party went on to Deerfield and
then swung into Roadstown, Shiloh
and Greenwich, and the run ended
about o'clock here.
The Merchants Association were de-
lighted with the reception given them
by the people and there is no doubt
but that the business of Bridgeton
will increase as a result of the smart
advertising campaign.
