With their energies refreshed by
the delightful Pensacola outing the
legislators ought to take a look at
the calendar, reconsecrate them
selves to the service Of the State and
so to it, Some of the newspaper
criticism on their sins of omission
and commission may be undeserved,
but where there is so much smoke
there must be some fire, and GER
tainly some OF the newspaper COM
plant has just provocation. Com
Elenting on remarks of this char
acter in a recent issue of the Tele-
gram the Times-Union says:
This is not very complimentary,
but from the number of State news
papers calling for action on impor-
ta1t matters and begging the legis-
lators to stop arguing over trivial
things, there must be some excuse
for the roasting that Is being done
ell over Florida"

G|LL'S SWITCH IS
PUZZLE TO COLBY
Declares Former Assemblyman
Had Pledged Him His Sup
port Before Primaries.

Former State Senator Everett Colby,
Progressive nominee for governor, to-
day announced that he was unable
to account for the sudden change of
front by former Assemblyman James
e. Gill, of Trenton, who first Endorsed
Colby and later switched to Stokes,
the regular Republican nominee for
the same office.
Its one of those things that can
only be explained by the nature OF
the man." said Mr.. Colby. "Still, there
is no great reason for the Progress
sives to worry, because the damage
to our cause, should Mr.. Gill stand
by his latest choice, would not be
very material"
On June II last Mr.. Gill, who is
credited with being the leader of Pro-
gressives in Mercer county, wrote a
letter to former Senator Colby In
which he promised his hearty support
in the event that the Essex man was
nominated and announced that moth
ing would please me better than to
see you our nominee for governor"
Last week Gill wrote to Candidate
Stokes announcing that he favored
the former governors candidacy over
that of Colby. Now Progressives OF
Mercer, Essex and other counties are
wondering just where Gill stands and
whom he stands for.

Socialist Leader Answers
Criticism of Bishop O'ConnOf

Readers of the Union Labor Bull
letin will be particularly interested
in the October issue of that periodical
in an article from the pen of George
M. Strobell, a Socialist leader. en-
titled Socialism a Remedy
This article is an answer to the one
written by Rt. Rev. John j. O'Con-
nor, bishop of the Newark diocese.
In it Mr.. Strobell shows genuine ap-
probation of the bishops dissenta-
ton.
Mr.. Strobell, in speaking of the
bishops article, says:
"One piece of advice was excellent
and should be remembered: The
workingmen are in the majority and
they have it in their power to elect
only such representatives as will en-
act the remedial laws which present
conditions require. But work
ingmen can not expect to obtain this
remedial legislation until they unite
their forces for the selection of repre-
sentatives who are sincerely devoted
to the promotion of the true welfare
of the laboring classes in accord with
principles of right and justice.
Other articles in the October num-
Der are by Mrs. Minnie ]. Reynolds
and Rev Z. A. WATSON, of st.
Stephens Episcopal Church.

Boys Confess to Theft
of S285 from Home;
Got Only $40 fer Loot

Thomas Noone, of 9 Linden avenue,
and John Moore, of 270 South Twelfth
street, the two youths arrested on
suspicion of having burglarized the
home of Mrs. Florence l. Merkle, at
81 Fairview avenue, South Orange,
made a complete confession of their
crime to Acting Captain Ebert, of the
detective bureau, and most of the
stolen property, valued at $2S5.31, has
been recovered by the local detectives.
The boys, both IS years old, told
of the various places at which they
had disposed of the goods and how
some of it was mutilated in order
that it might more readily be sold.
Through sales and pawning not more
than $40 was realized on the entire
amount of loot.
Marshal of Police Thomas f.
Mcguire, of South Orange, is endeav-
oring to connect the youths with sew
eral other burglaries which occurred
recently in the village. On the night
of the Merkel robbery five other resi-
dences were entered in South Orange,
those of Alfred Leeb and Ludwig
Charden, of Ralston avenue; William
A. Brewer, of South Orange avenue
and Grove road; e. c. Rossmassler,
Warwick avenue, and Charles F..
Weisker, of Tillou road.
The booty obtained at these homes
was similar to that which was taken
from the Merkel house. Jewelry and
silverware only was taken. In South
Orange township Chief Arthur j..
Boyle believes that the burglars VINO
entered three Maplewood homes about
two weeks ago are the same persons
that made the raids on the South Or
ange village homes. The young men
under arrest will be held pending a
further investigation.

RAISE IN PAY FOR J
OFFICERS VETOED
Mayor Gregory Opposed TO In
creases for Fire Chief
and Assistant.

Apprised by City Counsel Borden
D. Whiting that the action of the
Fire Commission in granting an in
crease in pay to officers of the fire de-
partment in May to date from Janu-
airy l was Illegal, Mayor Julian A.
Gregory, of East Orange, has vetoed
the resolution calling for the raise.
He informed the commissioners OF
his action at a conference with them
last night, but told them If they
passed another resolution having the
increase of captains and lieutenants
date from October ! he would ap-
prove the action. The executive
frankly told the commissioners he
would not favor an increase for Chief
Markwith and Assistant Chief Flynn
If the commission grants an in
crease to the captains and 1ieutenants
to date from October ! the captains
pay will be advanced from 81 ,240 to
$1,000 and the lieutenants from 81 900
to s1,100.
Mr.. Whiting submitted his ruling to
the executive yesterday. The resolu-
ton called for an increase of 500 for
Chief Markwith and $50 for Assistant
Chief Flynn. Two years ago the
mayor also blocked a raise given
VI lel MdThWllD Dy the commission
Other than to say he Is opposed
to a raise for Chief Markwith the
executive would not discuss his re-
fusal to grant the fire head an in
crease this morning. His reason for
refusing him a larger salary two
years ago was that discipline did not
seem to be existing in the ranks of
the department at the time
Earlier in the month officers and
members of the department requested
, the City Council to allow them 10
submit the question of an increase to
the voters at the November election,
under the provisions of a law estab-
lished by the last Legislature, but
nothing further has been heard OF
the application.
The commission last night was also
quizzed by the executive concerning
the appropriation of $13 900 for motor
driven apparatus for fire hcadquar-
ters, which has been granted by the
City Council. The commissioners
convinced the mayor that automobile
rigs will mean a saving OF about
$1,000 year and he told them he
would place his stamp Of approval
on the resolution calling for the APP
preparation.
