There are $4,000 tobacco ralsers in
Kentucky. They raise possibly AGO..
100000 pounds of tobacco. The differ
ence between 6 cents and IL cents a
pound is s24,000,O00 a year to the
farmers Of Kentucky. II | am elected
Governor Of Kentucky and you have
any 12-cent tobacco to sell, you won't
have to take cents for 1t II you don't
want to. do not mean to say that
any lawless act will be resorted to.
would rather never see another leaf
of tobacco raised In Kentucky than
for a lawless act to deprive a citizen
of his life or property or his liberty.
(Applause.) do not mean to say
that you shall compel your -peighbor
to sign any pooling contract in any
kind Of a society. It should not, IL
shall not be done. They will be free

say is that there is power enough in
the law. and know that | know how
to use 1t so that the American To-

and break up the farmers pools and
injure them financially.-O'Rear. at

1t Is illogical and futile to confuse
our local policies by the intersection
of National issues when the vote in
this State this year can have but the
slightest bearing upon the former. Il
is a reflection on the intelligence of

cision of the local issues, by appeals

MIR. sCUILY BUSY

Congressman seully is making
himself heard at Washington. He
has no doubt set out to make a rec
ord for himself and 1t looks as If he
would succeed. Mr.. soully Is an ex-
pert on waterways and shipping. 1t
Is particularly fortunate that he
should be appointed a member Of the
river and harbors committee, 1t is
along this line that he can do his
best work and by improving and car
ing for the waterways he can best
serve his constituents.
Perhaps the most important act Of
Mr., scully's thus far-and the ses-
sion has only beguu-is the bill he
has introduced amending the inter-
state commerce act of 1887, so as to
place all waterways which are owned,
leased or under the control of a COM
mon carrier, such as a railroad or
any other transportation company,
within the jurisdiction of the Inter
state Commerce Commission. While
Mr.. Scully's amendment applies to
all waterways on which interstate
commerce is carried, he doubtless
had in mind the Delaware and Rari-
tan canal, the facts about which he
knows so well.
With the legislature thoroughly
aroused as to the neglect of the
waterway. and with the federal gov
eminent also taking a hand, some
thing ought to be done pretty soon
toward reyiying traffic on the water
way. Mr.. Seully's prompt action
proves that he can be depended upon
to do his part in the fight. 1t is evil
dent that the third district has a live
man as a representative IN congress,
one who can be depended upon to
render valuable assistance when the
people need help.

THE NEED OF PARKS.

We recently commented on the
fact that Trenton invested $4,000
in a park site a few years ago and
today II is valued at $%S50,000.
Trenton is a great manufacturing
center like Perth Amboy and what
applies to that city in the matter of
recreation and amusement, can very
easily be made to apply locally, We
quote the following on Small Public
Parks" from the Trenton Timesi
The plan Of President Leuckel, of
the Park Commission, to extend
Tr~euton's park system by the~pur-
chase Of a number OF small sites in
different sections of the city. is a
popular one. As Mr.. Leuckel says
1t is difficult for women and chill
dren to get from their homes to a
central park, whereas almost every,
body can and VIII go to a park or
square close at hand. This Is espe-
cially true of children, and children
are the ones who are most blessed
by park sites, particularly the little
jewellers in the closely populated dis
tricts. 1t was in recognition Of this
that the city bought lands for public
uses in half a dozen different sec
tiOns.
"Mr. LeuckeI would continue the
policy, and buy eight more plots,
which he says can be obtained for
about $4,000 or $4,000 now, and
held for future use. He shows that
| the park lands of the city have cost
us but $4,000, the purchases ex-
tending over a period Of about TWEEN
ty-three years, making an investment
Of a little more than $4,000 a year.
When the proposition to buy the
Farlee farm for park purposes was
first made, there was strong opposi-
tion to spending $4,000 for ninety
acres of land. Today the tract could
readily be sold for $350,000.
But cities do not invest in lands
for speculative purposes. The lives.
health, comfort and pleasure Of the
citizens is considered; and that is
why the small local park or square
is TO be preferred-one that can be
easily reached in a few minutes,
where the mother and small chill
dren may spend an hour or two daily
in hot weather, when the cost Of a
trip to Cadwalader Park by trolley
would be prohibitive, even II the
time could be spent.
Trenton las made great progress
in the matter of Fairgrounds and rec
~reatiou centers, during recent years.
1t will continue to progress until
every neighborhOod has its play
ground for the smaller children. and
every section its park for the use of
all the people. This does not mean
that the city should be held up by
speculators-but merely that it shall
take advantage Of opportunities when
patriotic and unselhsh citizens offer
them.
"Cadwalader Park and the River
side Drive will be Trenton's princi-
pal outdoor recreation places Of the
future. To supplement them, small

er parks and public sQuares will be
needed. 1t will be wise to make pro-
vision for these now, when they can
be obtained at low prices; the
$4,000 which MI, Leuokei says will
be required, need not all be spent In
a single year" d
Perth Amboy Is much further be-
hind Trenton In the matter of parks
and recreation centers than in popu-
lation. 1t will not be many years
before this city has as large a popu-
Iation as Trenton now has and unless
Perth Amboy begins at once to build
up a park system it will find itself
left entirely Trenton did not get It's
present magnificent park system all
at once. When that city began to es-
tablish such centers It was much
smaller than 1t Is now.
It Is all well enough for US to
point to a few empty lots here and
there throughout the city as evidence
that we still have plenty of breathing
places, but stop for a moment and
consider how the vacant places have
been built up during the past ten
years; then imagine how much space
there will be left ten years hence.
Take into consideration also the
value OF the land today to what it
will be ten years from now and we
have ample argument for getting
busy with a park system at once.
Surely the working mans family
living in Perth Amboy is as worthy
of consideration as the family living
in Trenton, OF any other city.

THE LINCOLN MEMORIAL.

There is no opposing vote in the
senate to Senator CuIiom's project
authorizing Lincoln memorial
worthy of the great president and in
keeping with high ideals OF archi-
tecturaI grandeur. The form of the
memorial has not been decided upon.
II is left to the judgment and taste
OF commission who il is hoped will
make wide and appropriate selec-
ton. There have been suggestions
of boulevard connecting Washing
ton and Gettysburg. also a project
for triumphal arch like the Arch
of Triumph in Paris or It's prototype
In Rome. There is also a project to
have the memorial occupy the center
Of the great plaza stretching from
the capitol to the union station. The
appropriation for this monument Is
two millions, but II is possible that
this sim will be added 20 before the
memorial is completed.
