THEODORE b. BooRAEM

In the death Of Prosecutor Theo-
dore B.. Booraem Middlesex county
loses a valuable official. Both while
on the bench and as Prosecutor of
the Pleas Mr.. Booraem rendered ex-
~cellent service to the people and
brought about a respect for the law
among certain elements which was
/ sadly needed at the time of his APP
pointment as county Judge.
His career on the bench was an
admirable one. He presided at trials
In a fair and impartial manner and
dealt out justice with an even hand.
When be gave up his judicial posi-
ton to accept the appointment as
prosecutor there were many who
thought he was lowering his posi-
ton. He proceeded at once to show
that this was not true. 1t Ia plain
from his conduct of the prosecutors
office that this position lis every bit
as influential and powerful as the
judgship.
AS prosecutor, Mr.. Booraem at
once started an effective campaign
against all violators Of the law, and
put an end. to a large extent, to the
promiscuous shootings and murders
that were becoming so common. He
! always was on the aggressive and
has acted promptly In all cases that
have been placed In his charge. He
has shown what q prosecutor can do
when he determines to accomplish
something and in66fsrespect he has
set q xhAdg5s<sSample for those who
succeed him.
Mr.. Booraem's death III regretted
on ail sides. Even those whom he
has prosecuted have no grudge
against him. Middlesex county is
decidedly better for him having
served it on the bench and as pros
%ecutor. We can express u appre-
citation OF his great service to the
public in no better way than to wish
that his successor viii follow along
the same lines in fulfilling the duties
of this office.

ROOSEVELT IN THE RING.

Former President Roosevelt has
Mt last broken his silence In regard
to his nomination for the presiden-
cy. He declares In a letter to the
governors who put the question to
him, that he will accept the nomina-
ton If it is rendered him. There is
no denying the fact that Mr.. Roose-
welt has a great following among
the masses of the people. In a
great many states, however, the peo-
pie win have little to say as to who
the candidate of the Republican par
ty Will be.
New Jersey is M OF the very
few states In the union that will
have a presidential primary at which
the people themselves will name the
delegates to the national conven-
tions and insist that they be pledged
to the mar preferred by the major
ity. In all other states . state con-
Yention will be held at which dele
gates, pledged or unpledged. Will be
ehosen. These state conventions. as
se all know. are dominated largely
BY political bosses and office holders
Id their respective commonwealths.
Most OF the leaders at the present
time are sticking to the administers
ton and are doing what they can to
secure the denomination OF Presi-
dent Taft. II the people themselves
had the say, Mr.. Roosevelt would
stand an excellent chance Of being
nominated. But under present con-
siitions, ne mas a nard nght on mis-
hands and the outlook is that he will
not be named.
MI. Roosevelt promises that, In
regard TO the recall of Judges and
the revision by the people Of deeis-
tons on constitutional points. he viii
make himself clear as to what he
can Il he should make any

SENDING rELEGRAMs AT NIGHT

SENDING TELEGRAMs AT NIGHT.
1t Is interesting to read of the
various experiences people are hay
Ing In an effort to send kilograms
from this city after 5 o'clock at
night. 1t Is not surprising that peo-
pie, after being lured to the tele-
phone booth In the exchange office
in Smith street by an elaborate sign
stating that all night telegraph SER
vice is obtained there, absolutely re-
fuse to run the risk of having their
message garbled by trying to dictate
it to a telegraph operator eighteen
or twenty miles away. The instance
|recited to I. C. Moore, president OF
the Board OF Trade. and published In
Saturdays EVENING NEWS shows
plainly what sonic outsiders think OF
this so-called all night service.
Yesterday the NEWS told Of the
enorts Of a local newspaper corres-
pendent to carry out an order from
his paper In New York. by telephon-
ing hts press dispatch to the New
Brunswick ONCE. For a city OF s5,-
600 Inhabitants in these modern
times. such a service is a disgrace.
In fact. it can be called no service
at all.
People Of Perth Amboy want a
telegraph ofice and protest against
being forced to use the telephone In
stead, II il plain that something
better than the slot machine booth
at the telephone exchange Is needed
in order TO satisfy the wants Of this
city.

struction, City Health Officer DR..
Thos. Tetreau is planning vigorous
campaign against rats, with a view to
preventing the spread of bubonic
plague in case it should be intro
duced into the. cities on Puget Sound.
DIR. Tetreau says that although
there is no plague now, there are
many rats, where a few years ago
there were practically none. He pro-
poses to get rid of the rodents by re-
moving many of their breeding
places and narbors, such as wooden
sidewalks, rubbish piles. and by en-
couraging their destruction. He
thinks the offering of small bounty
would help in the campaign.

WOMEN'S CLUBS WILL

Yakima.
Clubs Cutgrow Homes
The Wo,nan's club has already
agreed with Mr.. Hitchings, it is un-
derstood, regarding its tenancy and

will do SO at an early date. The first
mentioned organization has been
meeting for some time in the rooms
Of the Commercial club, or did until
the club removed to new quarters. The
Portia club. has outgrown the private

that they Will be needed before Sep
TENDER 1, but some will be available
before that If necessary. The fourth
floor has been finished off practically

late these agencies out of business but
the senate amended the bill to pre-
