port that he had decided not to be
candidate for reelection, Director
Walter A. Evans. of the County Board
of Freeholders, announced today that
he had filed a petition with County
Clerk Joseph McDonough and would
again make the race at the coming
election on the Republican ticket
"A report has gained circulation to
the effect that l had decided not to
run; that l had given way to former
Mayor William Cardwell, of East Or
ange This is not so,'' said the South
Orange man at his home today. Mr..
Cardwell is a candidate, but he will
take the place of Seymour p. Gilbert,
of Bloomfield" he added e. e, Ry-
man, of Newark, present member of
the board, will be the third Repub-
lican candidate

and with a most appealing blat,
wouldn't 1t make you disconnected If
even before it's horns were started
some blamed cuss should come along
and mess up its brains with an axe?
But, of course that doesn't happen

"In one other respect the high price
of beef has added much to my own
personal happiness, You see, I'm
getting old. l don't give down the
milk the way used to and am to be
killed this fall for beef. Under the
old order 1t wouldn't pay to fatten
me. I'd be sold mostly for my hide,
glue and bones; but now see what
they're doing! I'm getting grain
twice every day and just look at this
lovely pasture. I'm so fat that even
Bill Taft envies me, and l can't tell
you how happy 1t makes me to re-
fleet that when some hungry man
puts my tenderloin in his mouth this
winter 1t will be with a due sense of
appreciation of my true worth; be-
cause you can bet 1t will cost him
enough.
"In conclusion let me say that
there's one more pleasant aspect to
this high cost of meat question. 1t
makes the yegetarians happy. With
meat luxury within the reach only
of successful pugilists and other
millionaires, vegetarians will find it
much easier to cling to their faith"

Mr.. MQUADE CAME AND
SAW ANOTHER LIGHT

John McQuade. of $40 High street,
who was defeated for alderman of the
Second ward on the Republican ticket
last year, is in the class of Governor
Foss, of Massachusetts, when 1t
comes to Hopping" Mr.. MeQuade is
expected to file a petition today for
alderman on the Republican ticket,

ment as well as that of the Progress
siVes.
lt is less than two weeks ago that
McQuade walked into the headquar-
tiers of the Original Third Ward
Guards and announced himself as a
Democrat. Someone handed out an
Endorsement for McQuade for alder
man on the Democratic ticket and the
latter was apparently very much sat
isfied and attended the Joel Parker
outing the next day like all good
Democrats.
Whether it was the fresh air or the
people he met, it is said that the
young mans ambitions scared heav-
onward on the "Joels" and alderman
did not suit him. So, now he is back
in the Republican ranks again.

sion of the matter in which both
sides were heard. Only ten of the
twenty-one municipalities were rep
resented at the meeting. County
Clerk James McDonough was pres
ent. in addition to the three members
of the finance committee.
1t was explained that following the
last election numerous snarls &C.
Cured when bills for printing the
payment. The municipal clerks
awarded contracts for printing the
ballots to printers for sums ranging
from $11 a thousand to about $40 a
thousand with the result that consid-
cradle friction arose. A year ago 1t
was contemplated to call all the
municipal clerks into conference to
see IL uniform price could not be
set, but last night was the first time
the plan could be tried.
Several of the municipal clerks were
heard. They all agreed that there
was a great difference between a
large printing firm carrying out the
contract and a small one. The large
firm has more men, time and less
trouble in filling the contract than
the small printer. who practically has
to give up his entire attention and
time to the contract. as. If a mistake
is made in the printing. according to
law, the whole lot of ballots has to be
destroyed and correct ones gotten out
1t was generally agreed that the main
difficulty lay in getting ready and
setting up the ballots.
The matter of giving the clerks OF
the municipalities a large allowance
was also brought up, but nothing was
done in the matter. 1t was argued
that. although the clerks received SIC
for each district some time ago. they
only receive half that amount at the
present time.

Dern 1t all, anyway Being a re.
porter is a hard life. This morning
the managing editor called one of
his staff to his desk and said: Get
up nice, humorous story about the
high price of beef-something that
will make people laugh"
A nice, humorous story, indeed
Why not suggest writing something
funny about the death of Cleopatra
or the funeral of Marc Antonyl
Fancy a reporter going to interview
children. all crying for meat, and
three dogs. "Mr. Consumer, tell us
what you think about the high price
of beef. Please make your remarks
as pleasant and funny as possible"
What would happen to the reporter
is too painful to be put in words.
OF course an interview might be
sought with the butcher. But he's
blamed by some for the high prices,
SO the situation doesn't seem at all
funny to him. Butchers have been
known to hurl meat-axes while under
stress of great feeling; so the re-
porter didn't care to pay him a
visit.
There was nothing left to do but
to seek an interview with old Mrs.
Cow herself The reporter found her
reclining contentedly in a field of
clover, chewing a fragrant cud.
"Brindle, tell US what you think
about the high price of beef. Be
pleasant, anyway, and be funny il
you can"
'In view of recent developments,
that is to say. the increased cost of
beef, 1t is not at all difficult to be
pleasant" said the interviewed one,
with a most engaging smile, "but it
is not my desire to detract from the
dignity which should attach to this
interview by attempting to be COM
ical.
''The abused COW is about to come
into her own. Hitherto we have been
shamefully mistreated. We have not
received the credit which is our due.
The difficulty has been that We have
