Five Bandits Loot Train.

Five masked men held up the Rock
Island passenger train No. 43 at the
Mississippi river bridge near Mem
phis, Tenn.
The engineer was bound and gagged
and kicked into a ditch. At gun point
the fireman was then forced to run
the train several miles to a wayside
camp.
Here the outlaws detached the com
bination baggage and express car and
mail car and ran them to near Huri
bert. Ark, where the express safe was
dynamited and the mails robbed.
It is said that the bandits got ex-
tremely valuable booty It was, in fact,
that part of the loot was be-
tween 100000 and $4,000 cash con.
signed to a bank in Oklahoma. Com.
pany officials, however, declare that
one pouch of registered mail was all
that was taken.

MANCAU RULE
ENDS IN CHINA
Huan al Last Publishes the
AhdiCatiOn EdiCt.
ACCEPT new GOVERNMENT

After three centuries of absolute
rule the Manchu dynasty yielded up
it's power and abdicated the throne OF
China in favor Of a representative
form of government.
This was proclaimed in three stimuli
taneous edicts, the first announcing
Rbdication, the second declaring the
throne accepted the republic, while the
third approved all the conditions tina
had been agreed upon by Premier
Yuan Shi Kai and the republicans.
This edict, approving OF all the con
ditions agreed upon between Yuan Sai
Kai and the republican represent
tives, created much astonishment
has been expected that the Manchu
would demand conditions which Wo 10
safeguard many of their privileges.
but according to the proclamation, t4e
surrender is unconditional.
The third edict informed the vice
roys and provincial governors of The
retirement OF the throne from polii
cal power and instructed them to con
tinue doing their duty and to preserve
order throughout the land. 1t declared
that the step taken by the throne
was in order to meet the wishes OF
the people
The Mongolian princes, who have
been leaders in the naturalization agi
tation at the court have cabied to
Dr. Sun Vat Sen, insis ing that unles
Yuan Shi Kai gets the presidency they
will consider themselves enti led to
take further measures against the es
tablishment CT the republic.
The imperialist army, under the
command Of General Chang HsIn
which has been in contact with the
Republican troops for some days, was
routed with serious loss by the Re
publicans in the neighborhood of Su
Chow An. in the province of Anhwei.
According TO accounts the Republi-
can troops mined the ground in front
of their entertainments. Then. by
feinting a retreat, they inveigled, h
imperialists into following them over
the mined ground, and when a large
body of them was assembled the Re
publicans exploded the mines. The
imperialist army sustained heavy cas-
ualties and lost many of their fell
guns. General Chang Hsun. their com
mander, took refuge in a railroad ca
and escaped toward Su Chow Flu.

COLBY GOES HALE WAY.

Former Senator Everett Colby, of
| Essex, has resigned from the Repub-
lican organization Of that county,
| declaring he is no longer in sympa-
| thy with the Republican party, and
therefore cannot continue as a
member of the organization affiili-
ated with it. Senator Colby goes
over to the new progressive party,
casting his lot with the followers of
Roosevelt. Mr.. Colby has had a
great many things to commend him
to the people in the past and-this
action, whether one agrees with him
or not, cannot help but strengthen
the favorable opinion the people
have of him.
1t was Senator Colby who broke
up the famous Carl LEM machine
in Essex county a few years ago and
he has been a daring crusader in
the cause of the people ever since.
Mr.. Colby is a progressive in every
sence Of the word, being at the head
Of what has been known as the
New Idea" movement in this state
.;,oo - Was IN IratnH
1t is to be regretted that Mr., Col
by annot follow his principles a
little further and fall in behind
such a man as Woodrow Wilson, in
advocating the progressive policies
now before the country. Only the
fact that Governor Wilson is a
Democrat, we believe, keeps Mr..
Colby from joining him. 1t Is well
known that the former senator Is a
great admirer of the governor and
has stated his admiration from the
public platform. What a pity that
mere party name will keep two such
champions of the people apart.
Governor Wilson, by turning
down the old time party bosses In
the Democratic, ranks and surround
ing himself with such men as NC
Combs, McAdoo and others, shows
the country that he believes In h
thorough reorganization Of his par
ty along popular lines. This Is ex-
actly what Mr.. Colby has advocated
for the Republican party. With
such men as Wilson, Colby and 9TH
er genuine progressives, who are la
boring In the peoples interests,
strongly united in one party the
ticket would be invincible. 1t Is to
be regretted that Mr.. Colby, having
formally withdrawn from the Re
| publican party, cannot see his way
| clear to take a hand with Wilson in
| recognizing the Democratic party
| along the very same lines that the
p~rogressives would like to have done
for the Republican party, but fall
ed. We do not believe Mr.. Colby
would have felt the need OF a new
third party If the progressives had
won at Chicago. Why, then, does
Mr.. Colby feel the need of a third
party since the progresslves nave
won at Baltimore?

ATLANTIC CITY GOVERNMENT

ATLANTIC CITY GOVERNMENT.
Atlantic City, where the commits
sioner form of government was
adopted, has had an election and
five commissioners chosen to run
the city government in place OF the
former mayor and Board of Alder
MEN.
7 At the election In which tn five
commissioners were chosen three of
those who were successful are rec
ognized machine men, backed by the
corrupt organization which has
brought such disgrace on this sea-
side resort in the past. The fact
that these three commissioners were
successful, thus giving the old ma
chine control of the city. proves con-
clusively that the mere adoption of
the commission form of government
Is not sufficient to restore the gov
eminent to the people. 1t is Just as
essential to see that the right kind
of men are election commissioners
as 1t is to have the right kind of
mep for members Of the Board Of
Aldermen or common, council of
any city. 1t must be admitted. how
ever, that it is easier for the peo-
pie to elect five men who will serve
them honestly when these five men
are chosen at large from the city,
than 1t Is to elect a large number
Of men, each n from a separate
district, to make up a Board of AL
dermen. Then. too, the commission
form Of government law has fea-
lures which keeps the five commits
s~ioners close to the people at all
times, which places in the hands of
the people the right to recall any
member who is ~unfaithful to his
trust.
Atlantic City was toe firmly held
IN the grip of the corrupt machine
TO be wrested from it's control all
at once. While it may be discour-
aging to the advocates of the COM
mission form Of government to
know that the machine still has
control, even after the change has
BEEN made, yet it will be a great
Zeal Of service to those wholare, \
Perth Amboy evening news., 1912-07-19

watch developments In Atlantic City
and see just how far a political
machine that Is known to be as
corrupt as the Atlantic City organi-
cation is. will go in carrying out its
program.
There is no doubt that the peo-
pie have a closer hold on the gov
eminent in Atlantic City today. even
with the machine men in control,
than they had under the old sys-
TIN. 1t remains to be seen wheth-
err or not they will use hat control
to force honest government from
men who might be inclined to go
back to their old tactics. The com
mission form Of government is on
trial more than ever before at At
lantic City.
