State Senator Nichols Scores
Former Governor in Passing

RRIDGETON, \. J., April o.
State Senator Isaac T. Nichols, Re-
publican.. of Cumberland County, has
come out with rather Earring state
nent characterized chiefly by frank
ness The statement gains import
ance when it is borne in mind that
with Senator George c. Low, of
Ocean. out of the Senate, and SEN
ator Munson, of Sussex, in Europe,
the Democrats are left without the
eleven votes necessary to pass bill.
and no jury measure can pass the
Senate unless with at least one Re-
publican vote. Senator Low resigned
to accept a State job this month.
Governor Fielder may resume his
seat in the Senate, but even with his
vote the Democrats will only have ten
votes in all.
Senator Nichols says:
Governor Fielder will call a special
session of the Legislature for the
first week In May. The subjects Will
be Jury reform and constitutional
convention. Doesn't the Governor
know that both those subjects are
dead as door nail so far as this
Legislature is concerned? President
Wilson closed the door when he took
from Jim the last piece of patronage
to be given from the Gubernatorial
office this year. Notwithstanding
former Governors Wilson's active
campaign against the bosses, he never
would have won if he had not had tho
giving of SO many fat plums in the
way of office during the two years of
his State House incumbency. Wood.
row Wilson was q saint on the stump
but he used the patronage in the
same way as the bosses did. Forcible
illustration of this is seen in the fact
that fifteen members of the past two
Legislatures who did the Wilson will
now occupy lucrative jobs under the
gilded dome at Trenton"

from the Hudson County jail be-
tween midnight last night and early
this morning. They were Harry

from an eighteen months sentence to
the county penitentiary for grand
larceny, and two brothers, Bert and
George Ellis, whose case on a charge
of atrocious assault and battery was
to be heard by the Grand Jury to-
morrow.
They escaped by saving away two
iron bars from a window in q bath
room on the third floor In a rear
extension. 1t is presumed that With
the aid of accomplices they slid
down, rope to a shed, the roof of
which is even with the ceiling of the
ward ON the ground floor of the jail.

WOMEN oFFTCEHoLDERs.
tThe Philadelphia Ledger

tThe Philadelphia Ledger.)
Since women began to take part in
politics and hold office they have
shown ability in campaigning and ad-
ministration. Especially marked has
been the aggressive honesty of the
woman in office; she has fought graft
of all kinds and put the services on
a higher plane.
But in woman's merits in politics
is found her most serious defect She
cannot stand the hardships of the role.
She gives way under attack. She flies
from abuse. She goes to pieces amid
the plots and counterplots. This is
natural-it is instructive and it is in
her favor, but it prevents her from
holding on as men would do.
There are scores of recent instan-
ces in which women retired from Of
fices because they could not endure
the contentious and criticisms. Such
an unusual woman as Mrs. Ella Flagg
Young. who received $4,000 a year
as superintendent of public schools
in Chicago, has resigned because of
lack Of harmony with the board of
education.
Fancy a Chicago man giving up
$4,000 place because it was not as
harmonious as he wished, The may

by one all have withdrawn and the
reason for the Withdrawals seems to
have been that they were tired of be-
