METUCHEN, April 6.-Those politi.

pendent, of Piscataway township, last
week, are distined to have a shock
Mrs. o. r.. Winfield, owner and editor
of the paper, says although she has lost
her home, the paper cannot be beaten
to death with a club.
The Raritan Independent has lived
up to it's name, committed to woman
suffrage, and shouting the battle cry OF
freedom every week since November,
1909, it has peer against bosses. Mrs.
winfield and her daughter Hazel,
II years old, have set the paper, gath
cred the news, written the editorials.
worked the press, defied the politicians
to sue for libel when they declared they
were grafters and demanded the over
throw of the bosses of Raritan town
ship.
Last week the sheriff foreclosed on
the home of the widow-editor. The
home also sheltered the printing Office
and all went under the hammer. With
a pair of shears, q fresh bottle of ink
and a new pen Mrs. Winfield n Hazel
have gone right on.
There is no use Of crying over
spilled milk" said Mrs. Winfield, as she
pasted up the slogan she has kept
standing for years In the Independent,
reading: whats the matter with the
township government? It's all right
NIT"
"Of course I don't like the idea of
moving and hated to lose my plant.
but then 1 have arranged to have the
paper printed elsewhere" she contin-
ued, as she corrected a couple of gal
ley proofs of an editorial that poured
hot shot into the bosses.
1.-THE stand l took in politics cut
down my income and increased my
operating expenses. But I am salts

people. Gradually I ran behind until
the sheriff came along. But that does
not matter. I am right and the right
will prevail. My daughter and myself
have our health and u paper Will

In her battle for woman suffrage
Mrs. Winfield does not support the
methods of Mrs. Pankhurst. She says
the methods of Susan B. Anthony are
the ones to follow. OF course, rapping
the bosses every issue, Mrs. winfield
has come in for none Of h township

WIFE'S EXCESSIVE LOVE
GOT ON HUBBY'S NERVES

CHICAGO, April 6.-John Reckinger
told Judge Goodenow In the Court of
Domestic Relations yesterday that his
wife was not content to caress him and
listen to his repeated declarations Of
love at home, but she followed him to
his office. Not only did she interfere
with his business, but the continued
display Of affection became very tire
some to him. So he left her and their
two children. Mrs. Reckinger asked
that her husband be forced to return
home.
"Al I a do" said Judge Goodenow,
"is to see that he provides for your
support and that OF the children. No
wife ought TO interfere with her hus-
bands business by following him
around. On the other hand, a husband
ought to jolly his wife as much as
possible"

TO CHANGE THE DATE
OF THE CROP REPORT
Senate Passes Bill for Later Acreage
FigureS-TO be Issued Early
in July.

Washington, May 17.-The bill in
troduced in the house by Representa-
tive Lever, of South Carolina, and
passed by that body February 5, 1912,
changing the date of the issuance of
cotton acreage reports by the de-
partment of agriculture to the first
Monday in July of each year, was
passed in the senate today. The SEN
ate bill was introduced and cham
pioned by Senator Smith, of South
Carolina, member of the committee on
agriculture and forestry. There was
no opposition to the measure, which
provided, first, that the secretary of
agriculture be directed to cause the
bureau of statistics of the department
of agriculture to issue a report on or
about the first Monday in July of
each year, showing by States and in
total the number of acres of cotton
then in cultivation in the United
States; second, that the secretary of
agriculture shall cause the bureau of
statistics of the department of agri-
culture to issue each year Immediately
following the publication of ginning
report of census bureau, December /,
an estimate of total production of cot
ton in the United States for the cur
rent crop year.
Discussing his bill tonight, Senator |
Smith said it would accomplish two
Important results-namely, the sim
pliication of the preparation and is
suance of the cotton acreage reports
and establish accuracy of information.
This last feature seemd to be upper
most in Senator Smiths mind. He ex-
planned that every year the cotton
planters find it necessary to abandon l
approximately 100000 acres of cot
ton acreage because of inability to
cultivate it at the right time or for
other reasons of equal force. The May
and June reports, he said, did not take 4
in to account the million and a half
of abandoned cotton acreage because
the department of agriculture COM
piled it's cotton acreage data before
the abandonment had taken place.
By postponing the issuance of the II
reports to July, the actual number of
acres in cultivation could be accurate
ly ascertained.
