Another Mission Field

Missionary leaders, Protestant and Catholic, are already counting upon larger work in the Balkans, if political- ly the Turks are driven out, so eager are American Protestants that makers of programmes for January mission societies are considering the topic and speakers upon it, Christian people of America have already had opened to them northern Africa, including evcn Morocco and with startling suddenness they see new field opened on the other side of the Mediterranean.
 Protestahts desire to enter this Bal
 kan field, especially Methodists and Oongregatlonalists, not to reach Mos lens alone, but to bring in there what they deem a purer form of Gospel teaching than is offered by the Creek church, while Catholics desire to go there because of the. old time conten- tion between the communions east and west, or Greek and Roman. Congrega- : tionalists are encouraged to larger
 work because of the appreciation shown by Bulgar and other statesmen of their york already done, and its effect upon the conflict now raging. Robert Col lege, mentioned by the Bulgarian pre- nier, was founded by New York mer- chant.

the latest novelty. 1t Is made OF q
fancy silk with q very wide lace Dor
der. This peak sunshade Is light and

that 1t Is o convenient form Of shade

life. who go hatless In the summer.
Another sunshade owes its origin
to the direotoirs period, hence tts

which the ladies' Of the direetoirs pc
Rod affected.
This sunshade Is Of white silk with

CANDIDATES FOR CONGRESS.

While the Republican situation
this fall is about as hopeless as it
can be, especially when it m to
the candidate for congress against
Thomas J. Scully, yet if there Is any
satisfaction in winning the nomin-
alton at the primary, that honor
should go to Benjamin f. S. Brown,
of Matawan. That the Republican
organization, or what there is left
OF it, realizes that Mr.. Scully cannot
be beaten is evident from the little
interest the machine leaders, such
as "Dory" Strong and Asa Francis,
have taken in the nomination. The
only person %contesting the nomina-
ton with Mr.. Brown is w. w. Ram
sey, of Keansburg, who Is looked
upon in Monmouth as the perpetual
candidate for anything that may
turn up. Just at present he is pro-
baton officer, although he has had
ambitions. to be state senator, sur
rogate and almost everything else.
But Mr.. Brown is really worthy
of better consideration than he is
going to receive in the congressional
race this year. He is a good, clean
man-so clean that he has been
persona non grata to the bosses Of
his county for several years. Mr..
Brown is decidedly progressive and
belongs to the Colby New Idea"
school. He makes his mistake,
however, in still believing that the
Republican party can be reformed
from within. He has deceived him
self into believing that by getting
on the regular Republican ticket he
a get the organizations support.
Or would have thought that a
maj of Mr.. Browns ability would
have seen that if the organization
thought there was a ghost of a
chance to elect a Republican con-
gresham this year they would have
- e 4lAlu Nry-
choice and would have exerted every
Influence to have him nominated.
The Republican bosses such as
"Dory" Strong and asa" Francis
are not going to let a man of such

as Mr.. Brown represent the Repub-
Iican party of this district in con-
gress if they can help it.
Mr.. Brown is we'll qualified to go
to congress. He may be looked
upon upon as an expert in water
ways. He has been honored by
both Republican and Democratic
governors in this connection, having
been appointed on canal and inland
waterway commissions established
during the Roosevelt administration,
but he has refused to follow Roose-
Welt into the third party. By this
action he lost the support Of the
progressive element in the party and
he never did have the support of the
machine.
But as worthy as Mr.. Brown un-
d~oubtedly is, his chance of being
elected is nil when opposing a man
with such a record as Thomas j..
Scully, the present congressman, has
made in the two brief years that he
has been at Washington. Besides,
Mr.. Scully is a follower of Woodrow
Wilson and can be depended upon
TO WELD great influence in the
House should Wilson be elected
President, as he undoubtedly will
be. What reason can anyone find
for turning down such a man as
Scully after he has served but m
term, making such a creditable
showing? He should carry the dis
trict this fall be the greatest major
ity ever given a congressman.
But, as said before, if there is
any honor in running against Mr..
Scully this year, the Republicans
can make no mistake in giving Mr..
Brown the place on the ticket. BY
so doing they will be giving the Re-
publican party a better standing
here as far as a congressional can
didate goes than it will have in
a majority of places, and much bet
ter than the party really deserves.

lieved to be fatal, shocked the entire
community. 1t Ia a matter of con-
graduation that he is so we'll along
