Testimonial dinners are in the air.
THE EXCISE SITUATION.

The decision of the court, placing,Daniel W.
Boehm in the newly elected excise board in
stead of Tracy d. Waring, is not surprising
since it became known that, in copying off the
figures of the election sheet, a cipher was mis-
taken for a six, thereby making it appear that
Mr.. Waring had the majority over Mr.. Boehm.
1t is to be regretted that the city is to lose
the services of either one of these men as We
are confident that both would have made ex-
cellent excise commissioners. Both are mem
bers of the Civic Union and pledged to carry
out the principles of that organization so that,
regardless Of which one takes the seat, a ma
iority is still assured in the body for cleaning
up Perth Amboy in excise matters.
There is no doubt that such a cleaning up
is sadly needed. The wholesale manner in
which new licenses are now being granted
need not be commented upon at this time. The
present excise board knows what the people
think Of them, therefore, do not seem to care
what they do. 1t is a pity, however, that the
city should be burdened in the manner that
this board is now loading up the people with
drinking places that are not needed and that
the people in the vicinities in which they are
located do not want. The Chesebrough Vase
line Works is doing a great public good in car
rying one of the transfers into the courts. 1t
is time the excise board was shown that it's
high handed methods are resented and that
there is a limit to what it can do.
The new excise board can do it's part by tax
ing note of the licenses that have been granted
since election, when the people showed their
preference for fewer saloons than then ex-
listed, and refuse to renew any of the licenses
that have been granted since that time. In
the meantime, they should watch such places
closely for the slightest violation of the law so
as to revoke the license forthwith if possible.
AS has been clearly stated by the voters of
this city, Perth Amboy wants fewer saloons,
not more.

HOLY NAME PARADE.

The proposition to hold a parade of the
Holy Name societies in Perth Amboy next fall
is received with a great deal of pleasure by the
people of this city. The Holy Name parades
are a decided feature in the larger cities of the
state, and Perth Amboy is to be congratulated
upon having men with enterprise enough to
bring such a demonstration here.
To see thousands of men marching through
the streets under such a banner as the Holy
Name is most inspiring. 1t cannot help but do
a great deal of good and make an impression
upon the coming generation that will have a
lasting effect. Every assistance should be
given those who have the matter in charge to
make the parade an assured fact and to have
it as great a demonstration as possible.

PRAISE WHERE IT IS DUE.

The EVENING NEWS desires to add its
praise to that of the State Superintendent of
the Department of Weights and Measures for
the manner in which Henry w. loft, the local
sealer of weights and measures, is administer
ing the affairs of his office In this city. 1t is
pleasing to find a public official so conscien-
tious in his work.
People making purchases today, no matter
whether by weight or measure, are assured OF
a square deal. This was not true before Mr..
loft went into office. The letter published In
the EVENING NEWS, Tuesday, containing
tn congratulations of the state department for
the excellent work done by Mr.. loft, should
be a matter of qualification to every citizen OF
Perth Amboy. 1t is another way Of showing
the people Of the state what we are doing here

WE WANT LIGHT!

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

REPUBLICANS IN MIDDLESEX.

Our esteemed contemporary, the New Bruins
wick Home/News, has had a dream. 1t has
had presented before it a great plan for the
reorganization of the Republican party in
Middlesex county. The dream terminates in
a regular nightmare, declaring that in any
event there is practically no doubt that the
Republicans will get together next year and
present a determined front to the enemy. Evi-
IDENTIFY by Republicans" is her: included that
great number of voters who withdrew from
the Republican party last fall and formed a
new organization which is making great
Roadway as the Progressive party. The Home
News nightmare winds up as follows:
at will be a case of give and take with the
Progressives, but as both factions have all to
gain and nothing to lose, the healing Of the
old split will be accomplished" About this
time the Home News must have woke up, for
seat contemporary are left to understand that
everything is now settled.
Evidently, the Home News fails to realize
the true meaning of the Progressive move
ment. 1t does not take the declaration of the
leaders of the new party seriously. 1t can
not understand what these earnest men mean
when they say they have cut loose from both
old parties completely and are fighting a new
fight for principle, regardless of the outcome.
Part of the dream which is recorded in the
Home News is very pretty. 1t says that the
reorganization of the Republican party will
center about the mayors of the three cities
New Brunswick, Perth Amboy and South Am
boy. It seems that all three of these men
are known as Republicans. But the Home
News forgets that last fall, as far as the local
tickets are concerned, there were no Progress
sive candidates, in a strict sense of the word.
the Progressives agreeing to keep hands of
In local affairs allowing the members of the
party to vote for whomsoever they desired,
The result was that the Republican local can
dldates received a much larger vote than they
otherwise would; also it may be found that
some Of the candidates were more Progress
i've than Republican, and that when the time
come to choose with which party they will
: affiliate, they will not be found among those
who are recognizing the Republican party.
But this dream of the Home News is too
interesting to be overlooked It includaa q
Perth Amboy evening news., 1912-12-12
tentative slate for the Republican Board of

tentative slate for the Republican Board of
Freeholders next year. This slate includes
j. F. Ten Brock, of this city, who was de-
feated as the Republican candidate for SEN
ator, last fall; W. S. Dey, the successful can
didate for mayor of South Amboy, and a
former freeholder; Alderman Joseph F. Feast
er, of New Brunswick; Walter Green, of Madi-
son, and William Hamilton, of South Plain
field. Then, to mark the point where
the nightmare starts, the Home News has
Mayor Garretson as a candidate for
sheriff, next year or for county clerk, the year
following. All this, it should be understood,
is a part of the reorganization of the Repub-
lican party, with such names as Theodore
Strong, Robert Carson and others entirely
eliminated.
What a pity that the Home News woke up.
1t would be interesting to know what was
coming next.
