Forts Criticism Only a
Campaign Bark, Says Stokes
Especial to the Newark star.1

TRENTON, Oct. 23-In q state
ment today former Governor Edward
C. Stokes replies to the attack OF
Franklin Fort made at Point Pleas
ant on the attitude Mr.. Stokes main
tanned toward civil service during his
administration.
Mr.. Stokes refers TO the attack as
one of the little barks" of the cam
paign. In upholding his advocacy of
the civil service law, Mr.. Stokes
said;
1T is another one of the little
barks' of the campaign. Governor
Forts statement as reported, so far
as I am concerned, is unqualifiedly
false. 1 have been an advocate of
civil service reform since I read
George William Curtis IN my boy
hood days. In three of my messages
I urged the adoption Of civil service
law and twice such an act passed
the Senate under my administration.
The act which was subsequently
passed was the result of my efforts
and the outcome of the work of my
administration.
"My attitude on civil service is a
public record and shall not be COM
PEELED to call upon the courts to sup
press any OF the evidence of the
case. I do not see that the former
Governor made any unfavorable COM
ment upon the act passed last year
BY the Democratic legislature and
signed by Governor Fielder, repeal
ing a part of the civil service law.

Buqbee Sees Tnmulty Behind
GLASS; Challenge to Stokes
Especial to the Newark star.l

TRENTON. Oct 23.-Chairman
Newton A. K. Bugbee, of the Repub-
lican State committee. today took
occasion to back up Edward c..
Stokes in refusing to meet Represent
alive Carter Glass on the platform to
debate the national currency bill.
Mr. Bugbee places responsibility for
the proposal to send Mr.. Glass here
to debate up to Joseph p. Tumulty,
secretary TO the President. While be-
lieving a debate even with Governor
Fielder would lessen the dignity of
the State campaign. Mr.. Bugbee reit-
crates the declaration of Mr.. Stokes
yesterday that such meeting could
be arranged.
Governor Stokes is entirely justi-
fled in declining to discuss New Jer-
sey problems with a Virginian. This
is not a national but State cam
paign. which Jerseymen can settle
among themselves. Governor Stokes
has not the time to enter into dis
eussion with every gentleman whom
Mr. TumultY may desire to send to
New Jersey on issues not at all rela-
tive to the campaign" said Mr. Bug
bee

League Sued for Printing
Has Since Been Incorporated

Armed with the papers Of incor-
poration of the Woodrow Wilson
League of Orange, P. Joseph Clossick,
one of the incorporators of the or
ganization, appeared in the East Or
ange District Court today prepared
to offend the suit instituted against
the league by Charles H. Ely, of Or

Mr.. Clossick was unaware the court
has closed for two weeks.
Mr.. Clossick declares Mr.. Ely can
not recover the money because the
bill was not contracted for before the
incorporation of the league. The in
corporation was filed in June and the
bill was for printing done in March.
If Mr.. Ely continues tho suit it
will be necessary for him to proceed
against the individual members of
the club previous to the incor-
poration If he does he will have to
sue himself, as he was member of
| the organization at the time.

Chairman Bugbee, of Republi-
can campaigners, Says Visit
Shows Party Weakness.

Declaring that the coming OF
speakers of national prominence to
New Jersey in the interests of the
candidacy of Acting Governor James
It. Fielder is a confession of weak
ness" Newton A. K. Bugbee, chair
man Of the Republican State cam
spaign committee, has issued state
ment in which he welcomes TO these
shores William J. Bryan and other
Democratic orators. who are sched-
uled to stump in this State. His
statement is as follows;
1.-THE Democratic leaders, fearful
of the splendid reception with which
the people of New Jersey have hailed
the nomination of Edward c. Stokes
for Governor, have sent out frantic
appeals for help, and Washington mas
responded with Democracy's great
champion, William j. Bryan.
THE Republican party welcomes
the great free silver, free trade ad-
voeate. We accept Democracy
challenge. For many years the argu-
ments of william j. Bryan Lave been
heard in our state and ever has the
Republican party grown stronger I'M
der his onslaughts. Nothing the
Democratic leaders have done thus
far in their campaign of utilization
can approach the effect on the voters
that the coming of Bryan and his
squadron of Democratic Senators VINO
are to overrun our state in their des-
perate effort to defeat the Republic
can party will have.
aFresh from their latest attack
upon American industries, with their
low tariff bill in their hands, these
gentlemen hope to do one of two
things: First, to induce the Repup-
licans to support the Democratic
ticket; second, to seek. by cunning
argument. to keep alive the fast dying
third party movement.
I'VE welcome the great orators OF
the Democratic party of New Jersey
Their coming is confession of weak
ness. and I feel sure that the des-
perate condition of the Democratic
campaign, thus proven, will be the
cause of a great rallying of the Re
publican party TO the support of its
splendid leader, Edward c. Stokes"

COLBY SHIFTS HIS
SUBJECT TO TAXES
Addresses Salem Residents
After Visits to Bridgeton
and Atlantic City.
[snecIaI 90 the Newark star.I


SALEM, Oct. 23.@Tal1ing up the
benefits which he said would accrue
from the increase of the land tax and
the decrease of the tax on buildings,
7 Everett Colby. the Progressive CUB
ernatorial candidate for Governor,
made an address here this afternoon.
Mr.. Colby came here from Bridge
ton. Cumberland county, where he
| had stayed overnight after making
an address on the subject of reduc-
| ing the expenditures of running the
State government by enabling the
Legislators to be supplied with more
detail when making up the budget
and also by gradually doing away
with supplemental appropriations.
Prior to coming to Bridgeton Mr..
Colby spent the greater part of the
day in Atlantic City at the Sea Side
Hotel The feature of his stay there
was an invitation to review the
parade of the Junior Order OF Ameri-
can Mechanics, of which he is mem
Der. The review took place in the
afternoon and Mr.. Colby was given
rousing ovation by the members of
the Juniors.
In his discussion of the land tax Mr..
Colby said "a decrease in the tax
rate on buildings is justified because
when you tax a building you tax the
energy of the builder. Land owners
therefore, have no more right to COM
plain of increased tax on the value
of their land than person has to de-
mand redress from Federal govern
ment when the tariff is reduced for
the public good on some article he
manufactures. In Europe they have
taxes on all manner of enterprises
which invariably have fallen ulti-
mately on the consumer. Taxes of
that kind mean dearer food, dearer
gas, dearer everything, and they are a
poor substitute for land taxes which
are easily collected and cannot be
shifted on the consumer. Farming
districts of course would be dealt
with only proportionately and only
as each district would adopt the law,
which would be optional"

Republicanism came Governor Field

as an oratorical effort" said the gov
ernor, "but 1 prefer to stand on my
record of eight years in the Legis-
lature as the most convincing argu-
ment to influence your votes"
Mr.. Fielder touched on the one
time election frauds in this county
and made other references to purely
local matters.
