Democratic Candidates Here.
The voters of Cheyenne Wells
and vicinity gathered at the court
house last Friday night to listen
to the PRONUNCIATION of democrat
ic doctrine by state and district
candidates and to get acquainted
with these gentlemen.
The court room was filled with
voters, both women and men,
when H. Y. Tarwater called the
house to order and introduced M.
w. Purcell, candidate for district
attorney. After a few remarks,
Mr.. Purcell introduced Henry C.
Cassidy, candidate for district
judge, who outlined the policies
of the three democratic candi-
dates for district judges. Clyde
L. Starrett and Clarence Hawkins
the other candidates were intro
duced and made brief talks.
These three gentlemen made a
good impression on the audience
and left a belief among our peo-
pie that they were all we'll quail
fled for the duties of the district
judgeship.
Judge Tully Scott of the court
of appeals, candidate for supreme
Judge, made a short but interest
ing talk. Judge Scott is one of
the big men of the state. a man
of large judicial mind and man
who, to know him is to admire
him for his frankness, his homes
ty and his open friendliness to
all. None of the visitors made a
more favorable impression on our
people than did Judge Tully Scott.
State Treasurer Roady Kenehan,
candidate for state auditor, gave
facts and figures that made every
voter sit up and take notice. He
reviewed republican administra-
tions of the past. gave names of
republican state Office holders
who had been sent to the peni-
tentiary and others who were in
foreign lands for stealing public
funds. He showed where hum
dreds of thousands of dollars of
the tax payers money had been
stolen and the guilty ones es-
capped punishment by the law of
limitation. His plain and unvar-
nished way of telling the truth
brought conviction to his hearers.
Ex-Governor Chas. S. Thomas
candidate for the short term for
United States Senator was then
introduced and for more than an
hour held the close attention of
those present while he discussed
issues of national importance.
Gov. Thomas will be elected, and
his close alliance with the inter-
ests of the people is assurance
that the people will have a true
friend in the senate instead of a
plutocrat and trust magnate in
the person of Simon Guggenheim
who has misrepresented this state
for the past six years.

GIVE INDEPENDENTS A CHANCE.

The main point gained in the coal trust
decision, as handed down by the United States
supreme court, is the abolition of the sixty
five per cent. contract with the Independent
operators. This practically throws the indie
pendent man on his own resources. He is
left to get his coal to the market as best he
can. Under present conditions the only pos
sible way for him to reach the market is by
using the railroads. Thus the coal combi-
nation, while not having direct power over
him by contract as heretofore, can completely
dominate the Independent mans business
through the matter Of transportation.
While the decision of the supreme court
is insignificant, as far as benefiting the people
is concerned, in order to take advantage of
the little that is given the public, some method
of competition for carrying coal should be
provided. This is where canals come in. By
throttling the canal traffic the railroads have
gained complete control Of the output from
the coal fields. With these waterways in in
dependent hands and made up to date, COM
petition with railroads would be established
and the independent dealer would be indepen-
dent in fact as we'll as name.
1t has been shown that the difference in
rates on coal is thirty cents a ton by canal
and $1.75 a ton by rail. This is decidedly in
favor of the waterways and is one of the
strongest arguments against any scheme to
abandon any Of the canals that now exist. It
is useless to declare a coal operator indepen-
dent of the coal combine, which is made up
of the railroads, if he has no means of get
ting his coal to the market except by rail.
What damage has been deliberately done
the canals by the railroads in order to pre-
vent competition by water should be repaired
at the railroads. expense. Then steps should
be taken to place the canals in the hands of
the people so that the benefit can be derived
The secret of breaking a coal combine at pres
ent seems to lie in the opening of the artifi-
cial waterways leading from the coal fields
to tidewater.

NEW BRUNSWICK GETS BUSY.

The recently appointed harbor board in
New Brunswick is starting along the right
line. An effort is being made now to deter
mine what right the Pennsylvania railroad
has to the lower canal basin. As is customary
every year, the Pennsylvania has announced
that the canal will be closed to navigation
December 20. This is lone regardless of
whether weather conditions would permit the
use of the canal throughout the winter of not.
This waterway extends along the entire
shore front of New Brunswick and once it is
closed navigation at that city ceases. The
harbor board in New Brunswick is starting at
the beginning and is taking steps to have the
canal kept open continuously; at least that
part of it which permits boats to dock at
that city.
With this accomplished the board can pro-
ceed toward other developments along the
waterfront which is bound to greatly increase
the prosperity Of the county seat. New Bruins
wick is to be congratulated on this first step.
Perth Amboy will join in the movement the
first of the year when an active harbor board
will start work, looking after the interests
along our shore FIN vesci of Ksasbey So
Perth Amboy evening news., 1912-12-23

1t is fitting that we should begin at the be-
ginning. The present night schools cover,
perhaps, the greatest want and as the Board
Of Education finds a way these classes will
be increased until mechanical departments are
taken up.
Our cities are meeting with great success
lin this line and with our diversified industries
there is no doubt that such classes would be
of great benefit here.
Our correspondent refers to the technical
local industries. 1t is not so long ago that
the Atlantic Terra Gotta Company desired to
open a school for modelers in Perth Amboy,
but was given little encouragement by the
authorities from whom it sought permission
to use a public building for the purpose.
Consequently the idea was abandoned.
Every yearning for education on the part
of the young man and young woman should
be gratifed, as far as possible. There is moth
ing upon which the future of this nation can
depend more than the education Of the citiz-
ems who will have control Of the government
in the future. There are young men and
young women who are forced to leave school
early in order to go to work but who would
be glad of the opportunity to continue their
studies along special lines. 1t will be an ex-
cellent thing for Perth Amboy when this
desire for increased knowledge can be graft
fed.

WE WANT LIGHTi

Perth Amboy demands sufficient light at the
Central railroad station at night and along the
pathway leading to the station. These lights
must be kept burning continuously all the
evening. This is a small thing for a city of
this size to ask. We are ashamed to ask it,
thus letting our sister cities know that we are
so far behind the times and allow the railroad
to thus ignore us. But to remain silent longer
IS only playing into the hands of this parsi
monious corporation that now turns the lights
at the station off after the departure Of every
train to turn them on again only when the
next train approaches. PERTH AMBOY IN
