TWENTY YEARS AFTER.

1t was twenty years ago that the
Populists bolted the Republican par
ty. In the election of 1892 they polled
1,041, 02S votes. Why should Mr..
Roosevelt hesitate to follow where
Populism has led?
The Roosevelt platform of 1912 and
the Populist platform of 1892 are
strikingly alike. The Populists de-
cIared:
That I'VE meet In the midst of a
Nation brought to the verge of moral,
political and material ruin
That Corruption dominates the bal
ot-box, the Legislatures, the Congress
and touches even the ermine on the
bench"
That "the people are demoralized.
That 1.-The newspapers are largely
subsidized or muzzled, public opinion
silenced."
That ''the fruits Of the toll Of mil
lions are boldly stolen to build UP
colossal fortunes for few"
That the possessors of thees for
tunes ''despise the Republic and en-
danger liberty"
That "a vast conspiracy against
mankind has been organized on two
continents and is rapidly taking pos

expressions of the usurers may all be
lost sight of"
Theodore Roosevelt himself could
not have expressed his own thoughts
in more felicitous language than the
Populists chose twenty years ago. and
like him they had infallible remedies
for the diseased body polite. One of
these remedies was the free and un-
limited coinage of silver at the ratio
! of .16 to 1. Another was Government
ownership of railroads. Another was
Government ownership of telegraph
and telephone lines. Another was the
initiative and referendum.
But what stamped the Populists as
lreactionaries in comparison with Mr.
Roosevelt was their moderate atti
tude toward the courts and their de
mand that the President be limited te
one term. They were against a sec
ond term, to say nothing of third

WILSON APPEALS
HON 7 . ]. VOTERS
Criticizes Methods Of Opponents In
the Campaign in His Home
State.

Trenton, N. j., May 25.-Governor
Woodrow Wilson issued an address
to the voters of New Jesrey," in which
he explained why he did not take the
stump to ask for their votes at the
coming primaries, and attacked his
opponents who have organized against
him and placed ON the primary ticket
full set of uninstructed delegates
to the national convention. The New
Jersey governor is the only candidate
for the Democratic presidential nomi-
nation, openly seeking votes at the
state primaries.
After announcing his candidacy the
governor says:
81 was unwilling to canvass the
frequently in the past few months in
the other states, because my friends
thought l ought to make myself per-
sonally known there; but that should
not be urged as reason in New
Jersey. You know me. For IS months
I have sought to serve you as COVER
nor of the state with full sense of
the responsibilities you have impos-
ed upon me and my record all the
state knows. Nothing that | could
say upon the public platform could
alter it, either for better or for
worse. 1t would be unbecoming in
ME to commend it to you or to seek
to give it color by my own exposition
of it.
What is happening within the Re
publican party is obvious to the whole
country, and a very modifying spec
tacle it is. But what is happening in
this state within the Democratic par
| ty is not so obvious. 1t is indeed be-
ing done very quietly and very secret
ly, because it is being done by Mr.
James Smith, Jr., (former United
States SENATOR, who knows no other
way of acting in politics, and he has
no suggestion to make to the voters
of the state which he can quite ven
ture to make in public. He does not,
I understand, avow himself as in ia
vor of any particular candidate for
the Democratic nomination he is only
opposed to me; and the men he has
induced to offer themselves as candi-
dates to represent New Jersey in
the national Democratic convention
wish to be sent without instruction.
1t is interesting to note how large a
proportion of them are men who were
candidates for appointment office, and
whom l did not appoint. What con-
Germs us and makes the matter very
much larger and more serious than
the more incidental question OF
whether l am to be nominated at Bal
timore or not is the fact that this is

his control over the Democratic par
ty, and put himself once more in 6

machine an adjunct and partner o

sey. 1t is the last desperate attemp

stroy and supplant the new"

PARLoR OUT OF DATE
NEARLY EVERYBODY NOW HAS
A LIVING ROOM.
How This Apartment should'ee Deco
rated and Furnished - Down
Stairs Front Room or Dutch
Hall the Best Choice.

Today almost every n has a Nv
ing room, and any house Is incom'
plete without one. Some people are
10th to let 60 Of the old-fashioned and
h~opelessly out-of-date parlor. with It's
set of plush furniture, its what-not
and its lace curtains.
Still, every one would like to be up
to date, II possible; and in this arti,
Gle 1t will be tho endeavor to shoW
how a parlor can be turned into a Hv
ing room and how a living room
should be furnished.
The room to choose for the purpose
would, of course. depend on the con-
venience Of tho family; but In the
average house tho downstairs front
room or the Dutch hall would be the
best choice. Should this be imprso'
tioal, either tho front OF back room on
the second floor could be made to an
swer.
Except in the case Of the Dutch hall,
where the woodwork Is stained to
blend we'll with the surroundings, or

sidered best to leave 1t the way 1t ls,
1t ia usually advisable to change the
color of the woodwork to white or
cream. Even in the hall this has been
worked out most successfully by paint
ing all the wood white with the ex-
ception of the staircase, where the
tread of the stairs and the handra1l
are Of mahogany.
As to the wallpaper, 1t Is best to
choose a plain color or q dull two
toned stripe, which gives the same ef-
feet. 1t is kinder to the pictures, n
one is not apt to tire of 1t so easily. A
light. rich tan in an imitation weave
is an inexpensive and effective selec-
ton, and when this or any other neu-
trail tone is chosen, 1t leaves n more
free to use touches Of color In differ
ent parts Of the room. 1t is also well
to bear In mind that tan paper I'M
proves any furniture.
Other colors suitable for the living
room are old blue, old rose and a
medium green. Brown might be In
cludsd In the list, but 1t is rather a
somber color unless the room Is very
sunny. Red Is to be avoided. 1t is
very rarely successful, and unless n

THE MUELLER ORDINANCE.

The first arrest for the violation
of the mufler ordinance was made
Saturday. Let US hope that this
will not be the last if the nuisance
continues.
In a great many towns throughout
the state signs are posted stating
that the muf1er ordinance is strictly
enforced. These notices are taking
the place of the signs that formerly
fixed the speed limit at eight or ten
miles an hour, a limit which is ridic-
ulous on the face Of 1t to everyone
who has ever ridden In an automo-
bile.
There Is no excuse for the muller
being used these days. There
is not an automobile or motorcycle
that will not take any grade that
can be found in this section with the
exhaust closed. After the arrival of
every boat In this city, particularly
on Saturday and Sunday when hun
dreds of automobiles cross the fer
nv, it is customary for these ma
chimes to swing into High street out
of Smith street and throw wide open
the exhaust in running the short
block from Smith street to the City
Hall park, then very often the ex-
haust Is thrown open while the ma
chine speeds out Market street. This
is extremely annoying to the people
living anywhere within a block of
these streets and must cause a great
deal of suffering to any one who
may be sick in the vicinity.
Let the automobile owners once
understand that they must use their
mut1ers while passing throuSn tnls
city and 1t will not be long before
the practice will be abolished and
the unearthly noise that Is now
made will soon cas- The New
York muller ordinance gose into eff
feet today and Police Commissioner
Waldo has determined to have 1t
strictly enforced. AS most of the
automobiles that pass through this
city come from New York, the en-
forcement of the muffler ordinance
there may have a salutary enect
here. The autoists should be given
to understand that having escaped
from Commissioner Waldo's jurls-
diction they cannot do as they
please. Perth Amboy authorities
can enforce such rules as well as
New York. Let 1t be done.

the people should not know exactly

the people should not know exactly
how the campaign is carried on.
1t is noticeable that the Governor
has chosen a number of expert bus
inessmen to play the leading part in
the management Of his campaign.
Some of these men have never ap-
peared prominently in politics be-
fore. That they have made a sue
cess in business, however, is reason
enough for believing that they will
make a success in politics, provided
straight business principles are used
in running politics.
Take such a mar as William G..
McAdoo, the builder of the Hudson
tubes, and the man who originated
the public be pleased" policy In
conducting a public utility corpora
ton. 1t is understood that the gov
ernor will have Mr.. Adoo at his ell
bow to advise him on the manne of
conducting the campaign along bust
ness lines and 1t Is also reported that
Mr.. McAdoo will become a promin-
ent member of the advisory commit
tee. With william F. McCombs,
chairman of the national committee
and men of this calibre holding the
prominent positions, there is no
doubt that the people will sit up and
take notice when the campaign gets
under way.
Governor Wilson Is simply intro
ducing a new kind of politics In ma
tional affairs, just as he introduced
1t into state affairs when he was
elected governor. This is just exact
ly what the country wants and Is
only a sample of what can be expect
ed Of a businesslike administration
should the governor be elected
president.
Perth Amboy evening news., 1912-07-16
A BUSINESS

Governor Wilson's business plan
for running his campaign cannot
help but meet the approval Of the
country. There Is nothing two
faced about Governor Wilson. When
means just what he says. When he
takes the reins of leadership he be-
comes the leader and not a mere
f%gurehead. Under his leadership a
political campaign will be organized
and conducted along business lines,
Just as any other respectable busi-
ness will be conducted. In this the
governor will establish a precedent.
Heretofore 1t has been the Idea
that a political campaign Is some
thing different. Those who man
age 1t do SO with a great deal Of
secretiveness, surrounded more or
less by an air of mystery. Orders
are given to the various workers
with the intention that they be obey
ed without asking any questions.
The whole thing savors the worst
kind OF bossism.
Governor Wilson plans to do
things on a new line. Whether or
not be succeeds remains to be seen.
We believe, however, that he will.
His Ideas can hardly be called those
of a typical politician and it Is like
ly that the old time party workers
will not approve Of the plan. The
governor, however, has decided to
side-track these old liners and carry
out his determination to put new
blood and new leaders in hat par
ty.
There is no reason why a political
campaign should not be conducted
In the open,s- in a businesslike man
ner. Every one knows that to con-
duct a presidential campaign in a
country as large as this, requires a
great deal of business ability and no
little capital. There should be
nothing secret about the matter of
raising this capital, or the way in
which the money is spent. 1t is the
peoples campaign to put a repre-
sentative OF the people In the White
House and there Is no reason why

WHAT TO DO WITH LEFTOVER
BJTs OF CHEESE.

Cheese is such q valuable food and 10
10 particularly good in combination
with starchy foods. and those lacking
fats and favor, that It should be found
more often upon our tables.
When buying cheese It Is best not
to get II In too large quantities, ~ 1t
drys and molds. To keep 1t from mold
ing, wrap 1t in a cloth wruns out OF
vinegar. Crate all the ANAL pieces
before they get too dry and keep them
in a jar with a tight cover.
In cooking cheese 1t is we'll to re-
member that o~verheating IT makes It
tndigestible. When possible, add the
cheese to a hot dish only long enough
to melt 1t. A tablespoonful OF cheese
will flavor a dish, and not even a scrap
should be thrown away.
Butter crackers and sprinkle with
grated cheese and a dash OF cayenne
place in a hot oven and serve when
the cheese is melted.
Cheese She'll Filled With Cabbage.
Boil until tender a small head OF
young cabbage. Drain, chop and sea-
son we'll. There should be about two
cupfuls. Put it In an empty edam or
pineapple cheese shell, in alternate
layers, with one cup OF white sauce.
Heat In the oven until the sauce bub-
bles; this will give the cabbage a
delicate cheese flavor. Boiled maca-
roni or rice may be substituted for the
cheese II preferred.
Cheese Macaroons.-Spread Macar
rooms together with any tart Jelly and
press together with a layer OF snappy
cheese between.
Cream Cheese Crackers.-Take un-
sweetened crackers. II not crisp set
them In the oven for a few moments.
Spreak with plum or currant jelly ana
drop a tsaspoonful of cream cheese IN
tho center Of each cracker.
~ Cheese BaIls.-Add a dash OF ta-
basco sauce to cream cheese, a pinch
of salt, paprika to make 1t pink. and
cream to make a paste. Form into
balls and roll In finely chopped black
walnuts. Serve on lettuce with French
dressing.
Pack cream cheese, well seasoned
into red or green peppers; then serve
cut In slices. Very pretty.
