HALLOWEEN COMING

Halloween will be here Octo. Der 31 and here are some new and old suggestions for the pas time at the festivities which will be sure to enliven the occasion in this city.
 Halloween, as we all know, is essentially paganistic. On this night, above all others, spirits were supposed to walk tEe earth, strange dreams foretold pros perity or diversity, lovers were tested by various charms, future marriages were arranged and the wilder the superstition the more current it's belief.
 According to the ancient tra- dition that which is human is en- dowed on All Halloween with the wonderous power of detaching Itself from the visible and allow ing the spirit individuality to leave it's house of flesh and blood and soar away to the realms of the immortal. Out of this union of spirits came the belief in the great power of divination on that night to obtain whatever was wished or longed for.
 In modern times Hallowe 'en has always been enjoyable be. cause of the popular superstition attaching to it. There is some.

HAS GREAT FAITH
 IN THE SOUTH

l would rather invest in the southern part of our country than elsewhere, for, in my opin- lon, that is the section that is to share more than the North, East or West in the future enhance. ment of values" 7" said Frank Jay Gould of New York, who has al- ready proven his faith by his works, as he has of late years put some millions of dollars in- to Southorn 1ey
 prlses. In the days when the Andhciat WG44le AaQ ut IlGUle ldlUh Tn the South, Jay Gould invested heavily in timber properties in the Southwest, as we'll as in the building of railroads and so there may perchance be an inherited tendency in the family which found expression in the great street railway and electrical power development work in Nor. folk and Richmond and in hydro electric operations in the neigh borhood, by the son.
 In discussing the outlook for the South Mr, Gould expressed his enthusiastic belief in the flu ture of that section in the state. ment tLat he would rather invest money there under the present conditions than anywhere else in the United States.

lOHiulliOu party Leaders nave
raised the question whether under the
Gefan election law their party Will be
entitled to participate in the primary
election May %, for the election of
delegates to their National Conven-
ton. Under the old primary election
act the Prohibitionists were barred
from participating in the primary
election, because they did not poll
enough votes to be denominated a
political party within the meaning of
the act. The Geran act provides that
delegates and alternates to the Nat
ional Convention shall be chosen at
primary elections. The question is
whether this general provision includ-
es the Prohibition party, the old law
referring to the September primary,
and there seems to be some doubt as
to whether the provision in the Geran
law is broad enough to include the
Prohibitionists. The matter has been
referred to the Secretary of State, and
+ a decision is expected soons

New Jersey Farmers.

There are in New Jersey 80, 487
farmers, of whom 24,133 own their
farms. The total value of the farm
property in the State is 1854, 1882, sos.
In 1900 the average value of farm
was $5,470, and last year it was ST.
$40. The land rose in value from
1926 per acre in 1900 to $4S.23 in
1910.
There was a decrease of 1,163 in the
number of farms, or "a per cent.
during the decade, and a falling off in
the farm acreage of 267,109 acres, or
"a per cent. of the acreage.
The increase in land value during
the decade was $50, 7s2, 900, in build
ings, $23, 761 900 and in live stock and
farm machinery $65, 299,000.
The lot of the farmer in New Jer-
sey, as we'll as his wealth, has i'm
proved materially, and if there were
more persons who understood farm
work and management the showing
would be much better. Farming pays
better now than ever before, and for
this section of the country the out
look is for betterment and ready
markets for another generation.

John Brown: I am really surprised

way they have in regards to that

Mr.. Brown talked for over an hour
and then gave way to C. G. Thomp-
son, who, after a brief talk on the
same subject, gave way to w. Scott
Thompson, who, like G.. C. Thomp-
son, wanted straight meters. Harry
then took the floor as we'll
as several scalps, and saying that
Harry took down the house is mild,
as Mr.. Wilkerson let them all know
he was for slot meters only and that
he, as landlord, would see that ev-
cry one of his houses contained slot

TAFT OR ROOSEVELT.

Theo. Roosevelt's campaign against
VIM. H. Taft is without parallel in
American politics.
jefferson named Madison for Presi-
dent and Jackson named VanBuren
as absolutely as Roosevelt named
Taft, but both Jefferson and Jackson
were as loyal to their successors as
Roosevelt has been disloyal to his
successor.
Roosevelt's support of Taft ended
with the election of 1908. Since Taft
was inaugurated, Roosevelt has been
the inspiration of every movement
and every intrigue within the Re
publican party to prevent Taft's re-
nomination. in Theo. Roosevelt the
anti-Taft insurgents found their NOR
leader In Theo. Roosevelt Wall
Get now finds it's most powerful
mpion against the Administration.
an he now defeat Taft for re-
4mation? 1t is not impossible; it
not improbable. Thus far he has
played the game with considerable
Kill, while Taft by his innumerable
tunders has made himself an easy
Seiim of Roosevelt's superior politi-
al talents.
The opinion is widespread among
Republicans politicians that Taft, if
re-nominated, is doomed to defeat.
Many of the Western States will send
anti-Taft delegations to the Republi-
can national convention. Some of
these delegates will be instructed for
LaF gillette; others will be unpledged.
The Southern mercenaries are usually
controlled by the Administration but
they would not hesitate to desert Taft
for Roosevelt if they thought Roose-
welt had a better chance of election
They are always for the candidate
that can keep them in office. If New
York can swing for Roosevelt the
convention can be stampeded. Taft
would fail of nomination and Roose-
welt would be the logical choice.
The issue reduces itself to a ques-
tion of whether Roosevelt can get the
New York delegation. This in turn
hinges largely upon the attitude of
Big Business, which is in sympathetic
relationship with the Republican State
machine. Roosevelt is ready to play
Wall streets game, but is Wall street
ready to play RooseveIt's game? He
has made the most audacious bid for
Wall streets support that any candi-
date for Presidency ever made, but is
Wall street willing to accept him at
par? No doubt he is prepared to
give further assurances if further as
surances are desired.
OF one thing we may be certain
Roosevelt is a candidate for the Re-
publican nomination for President.
He will lend all his extraordinary po-
litical talents to further that ambi-
ton, and president Taft might as we'll
understand first as last that he is de-
feated for a denomination if his
friend Roosevelt can defeat him.
Theo. Roosevelt will be just as
scrupulous in his methods of gaining
a third term as he was in his meth
DDS of gaining a second term in 1904

THE P.-L. SEES
THE BIG LIGHT

| Last week we copied an article
from the P-I. How Bank Deposits
Shrink" and this week we give an
other on "Morgan's Mastery of Capt.
tai" Both are SO good that we can
not refrain from reproducing them
and commencing the P.-I. on begin
ming to see the light. Just what is
bringing this reformation about we
, know not but the dope" is good and
intelligent class of readers which the
Press prides itself on having. Now
II we can just get peep at the list
of the stockholders of the P.-I. we
would be in much better position to
judge of it's motives
The following article in the P.-I.
of February 90. entitled, "Morgan's
Mastery of Capital" is here repro
duced:
Few sober Americans can con-
slider the amount of capital con-
trolled either directly or indirectly,
by J. p. Morgan without feeling that
the mighty captain may have more
power than any one man ought to be
allowed to have.
Companies actually controlled by
Morgan, including four national
banks. seven trust companies. one
insurance company and several rail-
roads and industrial organizations.
have assets valued at $4,000, 900, 900.
Railroads partly financed by him,
and hence largely under his control,
have assets worth S3,5O0,0 900
and he controls other interests hav-
ing assets worth $1,000, 000,0 900,
bringing the total amount of capital
under the control of this man up to
9.3OO.OO0.OOO. Recently the Wall
Street Journal summarized MOrgan's
interests. and in order to emphasize
what Morgan's mastery of capital
means. called attention to the fact
that the total assets of all the ma
tiOnal banks in the United States
amount to $3.50, 3 S,635 in a word
Morgan's power, so far as the con-
troll of capital is concerned, is nearly
as great as the combined power of all
the national banks of the country.
Napoleon was a weakling in COM
garrison with J. p. Morgan, and it
may be question whether Morgan's
mastery of capital in America is not
well-being of the American people
than was the Corsican's ambition to
France and to Europe.-Douglas
