HAS BECOME MATTER OF JEST
Woman's Promise to "obey" Husband,
In Marriage Service, Perfunctory
and Without Meaning.

With the advent of the female sui.
trage movement (the teaching of
which cult may, when the movement
gets somewhat stronger, be introduced
into the common school system of the
country the word obey In the ordi
nary marriage service, already in dis,

milton this word receives after the

Opinion-in England the revolt against
the word obey has already reached for
mldaole proportions-says that the use
and abuse of the word Is continual and
unblushing perjury in the courts Of
heaVen-where marriages are made
10 This he adds: And nobody; worries
over 1t. 1t Is taken for granted. Arch
ueacons wink at 1t. bishops chuckle
over 1t, deans crack Jokes over It.
And with good reason, for their own
wives break the vow Of obedience as
gayly as the wives Of laymen. Is there
one clergyman who will venture to
proclaim from the pulpit that his wife
Invariably and Internationally obeys
MIN all the year round? We know
there Is not. How, then, can the clergy
expect from laywomen what they dare
not expect from their own helpmeets?
AS rule, the wears wife is a mas.

DEMOCRATIC PROSPECTS
IN MAINE

Maine holds its state election
today. The prospects for a demo-
cratic victory are bright. The
situation is sized up as follows by
the National committee:
Vermont's more than salts
factory election, from the Demo-
cratic standpoint, having passed
into history, the attention of the
country is now directed towards
Maine.
Information received daily at
the Democratic National Head
quarters in New York indicates
strongly that the voters of Maine
will not only re-elect Governor
Plaisted, but will elect a number
Of Democratic Congressm IN.
The betting odds. as quoted in
the various leading cities of Maine,
are as high as three to one in favor
of the Democratic success. The
odds in New York are lower and
q number Of wagers have been
recorded at two to one in favor of
the Democratic ticket.
An analysis of the Vermont
returns. by even the partisan
Roosevelt papers fails to find any
ray Of hope for the third term
ticket.
Leading Democratic papers
throughout the country have an
nounced in glowing editorial terms
that the Roosevelt movement
received a decided back set Such
papers as the New York Press and
the New York Tribune. that are
supporting Taft, ackno wledged
that the Democrats made greater
gain than Republicans leaders bad
anticipated.
Democratic leaders were careful
not to make any claim as to the
Vermont results, but the speakers
who have been touring Maine are
openly declaring that there is but
light chance of the Democrats
receiving set back in the Pine
Tree State.

WOMEN IN THICK
OF POLITICAL Fight

Tor the nrSt time IN the history
of the country professional women
are 20 be real factors in the
political situation this fall. The
latest addition to the ranks of
women's political activities is the
recently organized professional
jWomen's Wilson and Marshall
League" an organization national
in its scope, with headquarters in
the Fifth Avenue Building, New
York. .....
The organization was founded by
Miss Willette Kershaw, the actress
who did so much for the women's
suffrage cause while touring the
country two years ago as the lead
ing woman in the "Tne Country
Boy" Last year George Bronson
Howard wrote for her the suffrage
play "Snob" IN which she assayed
the leading role.
Miss Kershaw is also chairman
Of the organization committee
which is composed of ten women
drafted from the following pro.
LESSONS. two law, two stage, two
medical, two newspaper, one re-
preventative from Child's Welfare
Association, and one woman
thoroughly familiar with factory
and shop conditions throughout TIE
country where women and Children
are employed.
This committee is in turn assisted
by an Advisory Board composed of
National Committeeman from each
state. Upon Miss Allyne E.
Sheerer Of Chicago. the National
Secretary, has fallen the task of
organization. The New York
Headquarters under her leadership
has developed into a political bee.
hive in the past week.
Miss Kershaw is the first woman
of the League to take the stump
She and Mrs. Borden Hartman,
the New York society leader, are
in fact the only two women wko
have thus far addressed outdoor
mass meetings on behali Of the
Wilson campaign. Mrs. H arriman
has spoken to several large meetings
in New York and on Labor Day
Miss Kershaw addressed three
thousand factory employees in
Philadelphia, where she ppened her

CLOSE THE POLLS EARLIER.

The greatest reform needed in our present
election laws is the closing of the polls at an
earlier hour at night. New Jersey is one of
the few states in the Union that allows men
to vote as late as Z o'clock. In New York
state the polls close at 5 o'clock. This hour is
becoming more and more popular throughout
the union and New Jersey should get in line.
When the suggestion is made that the polls
close at S o'clock the cry is Immediately
raised that the man who is compelled to work
on election day will not have an opportunity
to cast his ballot. This argument fails from

WILSON'S VICTORY.

The election of Woodrow Wilson as Presi-
dent of the United States, yesterday, was not
unexpected. Figure as one might, it was i'm
possible OF see how the result could be other
wise. Mr.. Wilson has had everything in his
favor from the time the Baltimore convention
made him the Democratic candidate. The Re
publican national leaders, in their blind an
tagonism to Theodore Roosevelt, seemed to
prefer defeat, and even invited it, rather than
enjoy the fruits of victory with Roosevelt as
their leader.
The high handed methods of the Repub.
lican national committee disguised loyal Re
publicans IN all sections of the country, and
they readily fell in behind the movement
backed by Roosevelt to organize an entirely
new party. While the appeal has been made by
thus new partX-1 both Democrats and Repub-
leans, the fact remains that little if any i'm
preston has been made on the Democratic
party. The Progressive party is recognized
everywhere as a split in the Republican ranks.
1t stands to reason that With two great parties,
it is impossible to divide one in half and ex-
pect the fraction to defeat the whole Of the OPP
posite party. Even though Roosevelt could
draw some support from the Democrats, it was
impossible for him to poll enough votes from
this source to offset the Republicans who
would stick to Taft and the regular Repub-
lican ticket. Therefore, to the student Of po-
litical affairs, it was evident that Woodrow
Wilson would be the next President Of the
United States.
His whole campaign has been conducted in
a clean and manly fashion and has tended to
attract those who have h~esitated to back him.
His excellent record in New Jersey and his high
standing as a man won confidence among the
great mass Of people who knew the country
needed a complete change. AS Wilson had
not been involved in any of the political at
fairs of one side or the other, as far as the ma
ton is concerned, he was naturally consid-
cred the ideal man to tackle the problem that
now confronts the country and bring about a
new order of things. This we believe he will
succeed in doing.
Mr.. Wilson is to be congratulated upon his
success, but even more are the people of the
country to be congratulated upon their choice
for chief executive of the nation for the next
four years. Mr.. Wilson will enter the White
House absolutely free and independent to
serve the people, just as he has served them as
governor of New Jersey. We believe he will
make one of the greatest presidents this coun-
try has ever seen.

Perth Amboy evening news., 1912-11-06

the fact that the polls are opened at 6 O'Clock
in the morning, which gives men who are COM
PEELED to work one hour and in many cases two
hours to cast their ballots before they must re-
port for duty. Besides, it is folly to plead the
cause of the laboring man in this particular
when New York state, Immediately across the
border from us, with thousands more laborers
than New Jersey, is fully satisfied with the
conditions as they exist there. If it is possible
for the men who have to work on election day
to vote before 5 O'Clock at night in New York
state, it surely must be possible for all to vote
before that hour in New Jersey.
Besides, election day is a legal holiday in
most instances. The men have all day to do
as they please. It requires but a few minutes
to vote and the rest of the time they can spend
for amusement. There is no excuse, therefore,
for" keeping the polls open until 7 o'clock at
night.
It is a we'll known fact that most Of the cor
ruption that occurs at election takes place af-
ter dark. It is between the hours of five and
seven that votes are bought, if at any time, and
the foaters and colonizers are brought in.
True, our present election laws make corrup-
ton Of this kind next to impossible, yet it
would be a double safeguard if we could close
the polls at shutdown, as is lone in New York
and allow the election officers to get busy on
the count.
The fact that the polls do not close here I'm
til 7 O'Clock throws the election well into the
night and when the election officers get their
supper after the polls close, as is the custom in
many polling districts, the count is not started
sometimes before s o'clock or after, and it is
well into the morning, sometimes daylight, be
fore the returns are completed.
There is no excuse for this long night count
ing. The election officers should have the ex-
ira two hours in the early evening in which to
get in their best work. By closing the polls
at 5 O'Clock the returns could be almost COM
pleted by midnight. This is as it should be
and the next legislature should see to 1t that
an amendment is made to the election law
making this change.
One thing or the other is certain, either Ec
polls should close at 5 o'clock, as is done III
most of the other states, or the farce of making
election day a holiday should be abolished.
Nine-tenths of the men do not work on cleo
ton day anyway because it is a holiday and
the other one-tenth who are compelled to
work could easily find time before reporting
for duty in the morning as has already been
stated.
Let New Jersey get in line with her sister
states and close the polls at a seasonable hour.
