CRIMINALS AND WEAPONS.

The New York Herald recently published an
article setting forth the large number of crimi-
nails who have been arrested in that city and
released under suspended sentence. Some OF
these were hardened criminals who have been
turned loose on the community to repeat their
deeds of robbery and murder. 1t is this leni-
ency on the part of judges that increases
crime.
While it is true that real criminals are often
made in the jails and penitentiaries and that
more harm than good is sometimes done in
sending men there, yet there should be more
enforcement of the law in order to put an end
to the outrages that seem to be growing in all
sections of the country.
In connection with this matter is the sale
of deadly weapons. 1t seems to be a very easy
matter for any man, no matter what his re-
sponsibility may be, to get hold of pistols.
The shooting Of Colonel Roosevelt by some
feeble minded person a few days ago is an in
stance. In Port Reading we have just had the
case of a man shooting down his former faith
er-in-law in a quarrel over the mans children.
Pistols are pulled in various quarrels on the
slightest provocation. Something should be
done to relieve the situation. Apparently the
laws are not efficient. The existence of gun
men, ready to do murder, evidence of which
we have just had in New York, and the at
tacks made on men in prominent life, show
the necessity of a %stricter regulation.
The Jersey Journal in discussing this mat
ter, suggests that "the right to have arms
could be regulated by requiring a permit from
the municipality to be granted by vote of
council after a hearing and due advertise
ment.
THE right to sell could be limited to one
or a few dealers in a municipality and the sale
could be limited to those who have received a
public permit.
"Householders could be called upon to make
a return of all weapons, that is, Of firearms,
and punished for failure to comply.
"The police could round up the suspected
places and collect all unlawful weapons. This
would require time, but it would make gun
toting' less frequent"
We believe that some action to carry out
such ideas as here suggested should be taken.

sponsible position, it is time for municipali-
ties to take this subject into consideration,
particularly in the matter of naming men for
a police force where they are exposed to all
kinds of temptation.
The list of robberies in this city in which
no arrests have been made is growing. Peo-
pie have reached the point where they think
it is useless to report a robbery to the police.
This is a sad state of affairs. While the po-
lice department has a good record in some
things, it must be admitted that the matters
Of robbery and protection therefrom, can
stand a big improvement.
When a big modern structure like our new
federal building can be entered by thieves and
the post office therein looted, in a city of
$4,000 population something more than a mere
expression of surprise is called for. There
should be a rigid investigation on the part Of
the authorities as to just where the policemen
were at that time and what they were doing.
If such robberies as this can take place, what
safety is there for the ordinary RESIDENT Tax
payers look to the city officials to go to the bot
tom of this matter and not stop until steps are
taken sufficient to convince the people that
such a deed cannot be repeated.
For a ! post office located in a grocery store
ON some country crossroads the looting by
thieves is to be expected occasionally. But
Perth Amboy is supposed to have .outgrown
that class and is looked upon as a real city.
What are we to say after this latest e%scapade7
The matter is up to the police committee and
the Board of Aldermen.

TAKING GARAGES.

A suggestion has been made that the state
augment its income from the automobile traf-
fc for use on road repair by placing a tax on
garages. We fail to see the justice in such a
procedure and do not believe it would be con
stitutional if imposed. Keeping a garage is
the same as any other line of business and
there is no more justice in placing a special
tax on garages because automobiles help to de-
stroy roads, than there is for placing a tax on
livery stables because horses and wagons, par
ticularly the great, heavy farmers trucks
such as are common III South Jersey, also do
much toward destroying the highways. There
is no more justice in taxing a man who sells
gasoline than the man who conducts a hay and
feed store. While something must be done to
remedy existing conditions regarding road de-
.struction, the solution cannot be found in tax
ing a mans business out of existence.

Gov. Wilson Misrepresents the
Progressives, Says johnson.

Harrisburg, Pa, Oct. 24-That Gov.
Wilson and his advocates have misrep-
resented the attitude of the Progress
sive party toward the trusts was the
charge made here, tonight, by Gov,
Johnson in speech at the auditori-
UNI. An enthusiastic crowd escorted
MIN through a rain TO a crowded hall.
The Democratic candidate for Pres
ident and his advocates persistently
repeat and widely disseminate state
ments in regard to our attitude ON
trusts that are without foundation,
and which do. not rise above mere mis-
representation" he declared.
They assert that we intend to le-
galize monopoly. This is the veriest
nonsense. We purpose to utilize every
law that exists for the repression and
suppression of the trusts and then by
other enactments supply any deficien-
cies and in the very law itself to lay
down certain requirements and then
have the industrial commission that
we propose see that the trusts live up
to this requirement.
What Mr.. Wilson intends to do, no one
knows, and thus far Mr.. Wilson has not
