Col Roosevelt says the people are not willing to accept prosperity as the price of dishonesty dishonesty. of course, meaning according to the con servative program. The latest esti- mate places Col Roosevelts recent earnings at something in excess of a million dollars. and in addition he has. as contributing editor of the Outlook, presumably a comfortable salary. So, it is not impossible that he is not fully advised as to the value which the man, who has never en- ioyed $50,000 year salary. places upon the chance to earn a livelihood It may sound like iconoclasm but it is the conviction of The Republican that d majority of the people of the United States would prefer comfort under the conservative program to penury under the insurgent program.

When similar appropri- ation is made for a western city, il is called dipping into the pork barrel" The trouble is that these eastern edit ors don't know their own country.

WEDNESDAY. 3. 1gl.

Two events which have just taken place in widely separated parts of this country mark the carly demise of the wildcat corporation. One in the introduction in the legislature of bill regulating the method of in- cooperating companies under the laws of Arizona. and the other is a deci- also just handed down by the sup reme court of the United States The decision. in brief is to the effect that judgments obtained against stockholders in one state may be filed in other states and made a lien against property in the state in which they are filed.
 IL has been known for some time that with the attainment of statehood there would be d radical revision Of the incorporation laws of Ari
 Zona While vast numbers of lcgit- innate conccrns$ have obtained their charters from this state the further fact remains that thousands of fly by-night corporations. those of the wildcat variety have also come into existence under the liberal laws of the territory. In probably a majority Of cases these companies never had any right to exist Their principal. if not their sole. object has been the exploitation of the public. They Were designed for the purpose of paying salaries 10 their officers and promoters. They were. in the main. promotion schemes, pure and simple Their assets consisted of certain amount of cunning, an office equip salesmen. That they filched. in the aggregate millions Of dollars from ignorant investors is known to be a I fact. The promise Of vast returns on stock that was fully paid and n-assessable" was the bait that | thousands of customers swallowed | 10 tnclr after regret.
 But this has been changed by the ! decision of the supreme court and | will be changed still further by the almost certain revision of the Ari- | zona incorporation laws. If it be ! enacted that the blanket form of i charter shall no longer be used by this state, a hard blow will have been struck at the incorporating business. And when the investor un- dcrstands that his stock is no longer "non-assessable" for the debts of the corporation, but that assessment lives. regardless of the promises of the salesman, another nail will be driven in the coffin of the get-rich- quick scheme.
 IL is believed the proposed bill now before the Arizona legislature will do no harm to any legitimate enterprise Its significant feature is the clause providing that the name of the company shall indicate the bus mess in which it purposes to engage. Heretofore. an Arizona charter per mtted the corporation to do almost anything from selling patent medicine to drilling oil wells. The change is healthful one and will go long way toward eliminating wildcat con cerns.

Concert Singer Will Fight
if Wilson Will Is Attacked

CINCINNATI. May 27.-Mrs. blanche
Berndt Meha0ey. the concert singer, to
whom Horace W. Wilson, the prominent
horseman, left his entire estate OF about
Sis. 900. is going to fight the efforts of
Charles G.. Wilson, a brother from Brook
Ign, to break the Will.
"If there is a contest | shall certainly
fight it." Mrs. Mehafey said. She was
with her husband. He made no comment
upon the large gift bequeathed by an
other man TO his wife. Il knew that Mr..
Wilson had a brother" she added, but
he always gave me to understand they
hadn't anything TO do with each other
for years.
MIR. Wilson was merely a friend and
an admirer of mine, whom ] met In my
public career. We did exchange letters,
NJ course. but they we're merely friendly
ones. | wish to deny that he ever gave
me an automobile or other valuable pres
ents."
Charles O.. Wilson, who Is connected
with A chemical company In Brooklyn,
declared that It was only the belief of
his brother Horace that he tCharles) was
dead that prompted Horace to cave his
money to Mrs. Mehaffey. He returned To
Brooklyn last night after engaging at
torneys TO try to break the Will.

COURT HOUSE
TRIAL DRAGGING

JERSEY CITY. May 27.-The trial of
nine men indicted for conspiracy In COLI
nection with the building of the new
Hudson County Court House was con-
tinued this morning before Supreme Court
Justice Swayze and Common Pleas JUS
tices Blair and Carey In Special Sessions
Court.
Prosecutor Garven and former Attor-
ney-General McCarter, who is assisting
the prosecutor, have about atty more
and from the present outlook there is
little likelihood of the trial ending much
before June 10.
The trial was in session until ? O'Clock
Saturday afternoon, and most of this
time was given over to the taking of
testimony of experts In the building line.
John ]. Mulvaney. who was the counsel
TO the Court House Commission when
most Of the contracts for the new build
Ing were awarded, was also a witness in
the morning. Mr.. Mulvancy testified that
he had found among some papers In his
office the bid and contract award to the
Art Metal Construction Company for fur
piture for the office of the county clerk.
The bid was $25, 900.
This bid and contract have been miss
ing for n long time and were frequently
referred to during the investigation by
Inc citizens committee Into the building
of the Court House.
The find is deemed important because
the unit figures In the bid were low and
are said to have been 'juggled' since
last submitted.
This bid and contract will be taken
up in detail today. Those who have
watched the progress of this trial are of
the opinion that nothing more has been
shown than came out during tho Court
House Investigation, when it was prac-
tically agreed that the only thing discoy-
cred was that extravaganza had been the
rule where probably a cheaper grade OF
material may have been put into the
building,
II is expected that Hugh Roberts, the
architect OF the Court House, may be
called to testify today.

FIGHT IN UNION
IS ALMOST OVER
Wilson Statement in Favor OF
Russell Thought Ridiculous
in Elizabeth.

ELIZABETH, May 27.-The campaign
is practically closed in Union County. 1t
was featured by trips of the three Repub-
liean candidates for President, Colonel
Roosevelt, President Taft and Senator
La Toilette, all of whom appeared in this
city last week. Governor Wilson, New
jerseys ambitious candidate for the
Presidency. gave this county a wide berth,
evidently being afraid that he would
than has already been stirred up by the
contest between L. II. Russell and James
J. Potts for Wilson delegates. Notwith-
standing the Governors absence from the
county a statement made by him and
published Saturday in Russell's newspa-
per showed an attempt on his part to
Influence voters in favor of Russell. He
is quoted as saying:
lowing to Mr.. Russell's wide ae-
quaintance with Southern and Western
delegates he can render more effective
service to our cause than any man in
New Jersey with the possible exception
of National Comitteenan Nudge Hude
speth,'
This statement is considered little
short Of ridiculous by hundreds of voters
aud its publication has unquestionabiy
resulted in further weakening the already
shattered forces of the Governor. The
executives show of preference in the
contest here Is generally considered con
trary to all political precedent and has
served to strengthen the opinion that his
political sagacity falls far short of that
required by even the average statesman.
Consequently many Union County
voters will, no doubt, vote tomorrow
for former councilman Peter J. McGurk,
the anti-Wilson candidate for delegate.
Mr.. McGurk has conducted a clean, care
full campaign and by his own efforts has
secured the support of many prominent
Democrats, He has also prohted greatly
by the mistakes of his opponents, and in
dieatlons are that he will carry this city
aud county by a good margin.
There is now little doubt that Edgar
A. Knapp, candidate for Roosevelt dole
gate from Union, will be elected over
Hamilton L. Kean. the Taft candidate.
His success was generally conceded even
before Colonel I,oosevelt's triumphant
visit to Elizabeth Saturday. The colonel
spoke to 10, 200 people, who cheered until
they were hoarse. His first speech was
made in the armory, where every inch of
space was jammed by enthusiastic voters.
The crowd was so great that the colonel
was compelled to address an overflow
meeting of several thousand.
