D. WILLIAM n. BAWDtN.

ESONoNllO
Among the axioms recited in the
Declaration of Independence none
has been more frequently repeated
than the one which reads: "An men
are created equal that they are en-
dowed by their Creator with certain
inalienable rights; that among these
are life, liberty, and the pursuit of
happiness" We have said it so
many times that we have long b%eliev-
ed that it is true. Just like hat ex-
preston of the pious ~Israelite of old.
Il have been young, and now am old;
yet have / not seen the righteous for
saken, nor his seed begging bread"
1t is easy to generalize, especially
when the eyes are shut to facts. For
two facts are patent, unless, of
course, we shut u eyes thereto.
namely: All men are not created
equal and good men suffer as well
as bad.
1t is altogether likely that the
Creator intends hat all men shall
have equal opportunities and rights.
But it is a fact that they have not.
Too long men have chung to the ira
dition that every thing was lovely
and beautiful and perfect in the be-
ginning, and that man is struggling
to regain his lost estate. Me shall
make better progress when we rec
ognize that while primeval man may
have been innocent, he was by no
means perfect and that the interven-
ing centuries have witnessed one
long struggle upward, with God help
ing at every turn of the road.
II So n4,%oi-1y oroa+ ros, for
men to believe that the Almighty in
tended that they should have equal
rights and opportunities for then
they may work intelligently with
him toward that end. How slow the
progress seems to have been yet
how surely the onward movement
has swept is revealed by a cursory
glance at history. If we shall, now
~perceiving the goal, seek to hasten
matters unduly, calling to our aid
revolutionary measures, we shall
show our lack of appreciation of the
methods of God. But if we shall
work intelligently to that end, seek
ing to prepare the way for its recep-
ton on the part of men, the day will
be upon us before we are aware.
No apostle of the square deal can
promise too much without arousing
suspicion of a zeal without knowl-
edge. But a more equitable distri-
button of the products of labor is
something that any people may we'll
carefully consider. No system can
be considered to be just that permits
the rich to become richer and the
poor to become poorer, whatever are
the opportunities afforded of passing
from the latter to the former class.
Not the life, liberty and the pursuit
of happiness on the part of many,
but the life, liberty and the pursuit
of happiness on the part of all
these are the things for which gov-
ernments are instituted among men,
deriving their just powers from the
consent of all the governed. And
God is on the side of such a govern
|ment .

the architect being to give that part
of the building the effect of lace
work. On some of the ornamentary
features of the tower true ceramic
gold glaze is used, made of actual
gold. This is a remarkable color to
be used commercially and the At
lantic concern In this city is declar-
ed to be the only terra Gotta COM
pany that makes it.
Truly, Perth Amboyans have a
right to feel proud of this colossal
building that is being reared into
the heart of the business section of
the greatest city on the continent.
1t is only another instance of the
part which we take in all the great
events Of the world.
That we excel In clay products
along this line, has long been
known, and the fact that this Wool
worth building Is constructed en-
tirely Of terra Gotta manufactured
here gives us all an opportunity to
talk Perth Amboy where the great
est number can see and hear.

GUARD OUR WATER FRONT.

Perth Amboy should not let a
small amount like three or four
thousand dollars prevent her from
controlling the water front on any
of her streets. Harbor facilities
must be guarded ~zealously. Perth
Amboy when it reaches the size of
Jersey City, does not want to be in
the same condition that that city
now is. AS far as water facilities
are concerned Jeresy City might as
well be in the middle of the west
ern prairie. Every foot Of water
front, including street ends, has
been gobbled up by the railroads
and other large corporations so that
the city itself is isolated from its
own harbor. Doubtless at the time
this water front was disposed of to
these corporations, Jersey City was
very glad to sell the rights so as to
have the interests located there.
Today, however, we find that Jer-
sey City is rapidly falling behind as
a municipality, becoming a mere
jumping-off place for the many
trans-continental railroads.
Today it may seem like a big
thing for Perth Amboy to have the
various industries located along our
water front, building up the city as
far as population is concerned, but
we must look to the future and con-
slider Perth Amboy as it will he. A
great change will take place during
the next twenty five years and we
iingteRo flaw whatever in our title
to the little land we still have left
on the water front.
What might look like saving
three or four thousand dollars today
may mean a loss to the city OF
many thousands of dollars a few
years hence. The aldermen cannot
afford to be penny wise and pound
foolish in handling the municipal
affairs of this kind. Anything that
effects our harbors effects the great
est asset a city has.

MADE IN PERTH AMBOY.

A great deal of interest was ak
en- a few days ago in the fact that
"old Glory" was unfurled to the
breeze on the top of the tallest tow
er In the world. We refer to the
Woolworth building, which is now
nearing completion in New York.
All who visit the metropolis can
not help but be impressed with the
loftiness of the building, and to the
European traveller coming up the
harbor the sight must indeed be
marvellous. The Woolworth build
ing will, for some time, be one Of
the show places Of the world. 1t
will be pointed out to all visitors In
New York. 1t will be pictured in
magazines throughout the world and
written about in many languages.
The structure is a great monument,
not only to the owner whose name 1t
bears, but the engineering skill of
the twentieth century.
But to the people of Perth Amboy
Nd vicinity this wonderful building
INF more than ordinary interest.
a detls, from this city, gaze upon it

can say with pride and no little
disqualification that its towering
walls are composed Of material hat
has been made exclusively In Perth
Amboy. With the exception Of the
first few floors, the building is con-
structed entirely of terra Gotta.
This material is furnished by the
Atlantic Terra Gotta Company and
comes exclusively from the Perth
Amboy plant of that concern. Perth
An1Doy material has gone into it
and Perth Amboy labor has
moulded and manufactured it. Thus,
while the Woolworth building is a
great monument to it's owner and
to engineering skill, 1t is also a tes-
timonial to the Atlantic Terra Gotta
Company and a striking example of
what can be done in the industries
of Perth Amboy.
