STONE FIGHTS
TO Be STOPPED
Police Breaking Up Gangs
One Arrest Made.

Misunderstanding boys who may be
organized in gangs in certain sections
OF the city had better disband for
their own interests, for the police
and Recorder Kehoe are after them.
The first Of a number Of arrests
planned to break up the practice of
fights with sticks and stones by
gangs has been made. The defend
ant, Sylvester WalicAy, Jr., fourteen
years old, of Hall avenue and Penn
street, was arraigned last night and
released under suspended sentence,
after he had been told hat the next
offense would mean confinement at
Jamesburg for eve years.
The boy was arrested by Mounted
Patrolman Hartmann and taken to
police headquarters on the police
horse, sitting in front of the officer.
His testimony to the court last night
was amusing. He reluctantly said he
belonged to the Hall avenue gang"
but had gone en- reserve duty for the
penn streeters," when the latter be-
came engaged in stony combat with
another gang. The officer caught
him in the act of throwing a stone.
The policeman testified hat the boys
held fierce fights with sticks and
stones at times, placing washboilers
owe their heads to shield their
faces.

LAST PLAY BY
MILLER STOCK
"The Cenvict's Sweetheart
at Bijou This Week.

The farewell play by the Miller
Stock Company opened to a good
house last night. This play is a
melodrama of the best type, the
story of a gentleman who became a
convict through the maehination OF
an evil disposed rival. The hobo
who is grateful to the conytcts
sweetheart for a past kindness at
her hands, secures the evidence
which vindicates her lover and frees
him from being a criminal. The play
possesses deep heart interest,
abounds in delightful comedy, is in
tensely interesting and thoroughly
pleasing. 1t is most admirably han
died by the Miller Stock Company.
and the mansion scene made espec-
tally for this play Is a ereditable
piece of stage craft.
Next week Kovacs new stock COM
pany will make their debut in the
Sign of the Four" a well known
and popular play. incidentally some
new features will be introduced.
Manager Kovacs states that q day
light moving picture curtain, show
ing pictures in the light, which is
the latest idea In moving picture
circles, will be installed, also that
moving pictures will be shown be-
fore the rise OF the curtain and be-
tween the acts foul reels In all OF
the best up-to-date films obtainable.
Matinees Wednesday and at Sat
urday's matinee the members of the
Miller Stock Company will hold a
farewell reception on the stage after
the play. Refreshments will be
served and the company hope to
have the pleasure of giving q person
al goodbye to their friends.

LOCAL FIGHT INTERESTS
NEW BRUNSWICK VOTERS
speciuI BY United Press wfrs.

tpeciu7 By United Press Wfss.
New Brunswick, Sept. PA
bitter fight is on at the primary here
today in the Sixth ward over the
Democratic nomination for alder
man. Alderman Peter Kinney, who
broke the deadlock over the election
of city officers in common council by
voting with the Republicans, thus
ousting Street Commissioner Abra-
ham Jelin and securing the place for
his uncle, Cornelius McCrellis, is
seeking a reelection. James Multi
gan, who has the backing of the
younger element in the party, Is OPP
posing him and both sides will work
hard to win.
There Is another contest on this
year in the Democratic ranks over
the nomination of a tax collector.
Joseph Rooney Is opposing George
Weigel, who is seeking a reelection.
The indications are hat Weigel will
get the nomination.
Not very much interest is being
manifested In the fight between Con-
gresham William Hughes and For
mer Senator James Smith, Jr., as it
Is generally believed that Hughes
will carry Middlesex.

was frst to challenge the free trade
declaration IN the Democratic plat
form. and since that utterance he
has continuously taken exception to
Governor Wilson's attacks upon the
tariff. He undoubtedly voices the
views of a majority of the American
people on this question.
The practical, the statesmanlike
and ethical duty Of all who believe
In protection, is to unite In opposing
the forces of free trade, A division
of those forces into Republicans and
~Progressives, if maintained to the
end of the campaign, u a free
trade victory.
This Is but one issue. There are
many Others before the country upon
which Republicans and Progressives
agree that Democracy is wrong but
they will fail t. make their cOnvic-
lions effective at the polls il they
persist in dividing the house against
Itself.
The protective policy cannot be
maintained by the election of a
Democratic free trade congress, and
there are other important policies
whose settlement cannot be safely
entrusted to their hands.
Republicans, therefore, have a
duty to perform in the election of
men who hold right views on protee-
ton and other issues, to the United
States Senate, House of Representa-
tives and the legislature; and l pro-
pose to work to that end primarily,
regardless of the presidential situa-
tinn nhioh Shnn1d hn fa Eon cara nf
by a duplicate electoral ticket.
There never was a time when
the Republican party needed the
loyal and disinterested efforts of It's
members more than today to lead ii
In the right direction.
/ believe that before the campaign
closes an honorable adjustment can
be made between Republicans and
Progressives upon state and com
g~ressional issues. This is already
agreed upon In some substantially
i'm Idaho and Pennsylvania. The
only fruit of their quarrel will be
ruin and disaster to both. Maine
shows the result of their unity. Yer
mont prophesies the result of their
antagonism.
There Is no effective line of cleav-
age between the two. The Republf-
cans in the West, though Progress
sive, I not leaving the Republican
party. The Republicans and Pro-
gressives in Maine worked together
at the recent election, and they are
working together in at least one
county in this state.
Many Roosevelt Republicans are
still maintaining their party connec-
lions and do not propose to leave it's
ranks.
These + not Arguments; they
are facts. 1t is folly to quarrel with
facts.
If loyal Republicans will cease to
quarrel with the situation that con-
fronts them and work for it's solu-
ton, they will render faithful and
more efficient service for the preser-
walton Of their party and the adjust
ment of differences that threaten it.
Republicans and Progressives are
both fighting Democracy in this cam
paign. Let us cease to fight each
other!

pointed ambitions and selfish de-
signs, but in so far as that move
ment represents the rank and file, 1t
is largely a protest against incapable
Republican leadership, and 1t never
would have started had the party
leadership been rational and needed
public sentiment.
Third. What the Republican party
needs is an infusion of new blood in
its counsels, and a thorough rejuve-
nation in its organization, and 1 I'M
going to do my part 10 help bring
about that necessary change. Z
think / see evidences that that beav-
en- is already working. Indeed in
the primaries last Spring the party
said to many of its undesirable lead
ers that their retirement was re-
speetfully requested. ! believe in
working out reforms within the
party itself, and l believe that a
party housecleanfng evtnces more
moral courage and is a better regen-.
erative process than a party separa-.
ton.
Fourth. The leaders on both sides
may find excuses for a quarrel, but
the division between the rank and
file, whether they call themselves
Republicans or Progressives, cannot
be permanent. They would still be
together but for differences concern
ing contested delegations in the ma
tional convention. They have much
in common. They are a unit against
the danger of Democratic success.
Then division makes that success
more certain and helps no cause but
the cause of Democracy.
