ONE of the latest reports politically is
that President Wilson is objecting to the
managers of Governor Fielder's boom for
nomination and election to the Office which
Fielder himself admits he was elevated to
by an accident" meaning the promotion
Of Wilson to the Presidency. The latter
feels that former Senator James NJ. Smith,
James Nugent and Assemblyman Martin.
Of Hudson county, are entirely too much
interested in Fielder and unless the latter
will break away from these gentlemen the
chief executive will possibly get into tie
battle himself against his successor. Mar
tin is q newspaper man of ability and
he refused to take orders on several occas-
Ions and did not advocate the sort Of Jury
reform that the President thought was
the proper measure This, of course, was
sufficient to arouse the ire of Mr.. Wilson
and the report Is that Fielder must get rid
OF the support of Martin and all who
might Join him in aiding Fielder get the
desire of his heart The Camden Post
Telegram asks: "Will Fielder sacrifice
Martini" To those who know some OF the
acts Of Fielder there will be little hest
fancy In answering this question. If 1t is
to Fielder's benefit Martin will go over
board like sucked orange. Possibly the
acting Governor will not make final de-
cision until he has consulted Tom Birch
and Dick Hughes, and whatever they de-
eide is to be done in Burlington county
the others members of the Democratic
party will feel bound to carry out.
COLONEL Thomas HI. Birch, of Burlipg
ton, has decided not to accept the appoint.
ment of minister to Persia, rendered to
him by President Wilson. The colonel
wanted to go to Brussels, but the presi

plant his friend among the Persian mount.
aims In the city of Teheran.
To reach Teheran, one must travel half
way around the world and then drive
across range of mountains. That was
too much for the colonel. 1t would take
him too far from his dear Philadelphia and
bis sometimes dear New York.
The ministership pays an annual salary
OF ten thousand dollars year, but that is
a mere bagatelle to man possessing the
annual income that the colonel receives
from the sale of jinrikashss, top buggies
aud delivery wagons.
1t would be a shame and a severe blow
to sartorial art to isolate the extremely
courteous and well dressed colonel among
the mountains of Persia. He is deserving
of better Standardization Gazette.
Is the Gazette In earnest In its remarks
or is 1t just foolingf For a man who has
travelled and who has overcome great OBJ
stacles-politicslly and otherwise, drive

much. OF course the salary of $40, 600
was not to be taken into account, for as

CHAPTKR 269 of the laws of New Jersey,
session of'191S, provides that at least thirty
minutes in each two weeks shall be de-
voted to instructing pupils in the public
schools as to the ways and means of pre-
venting accidents. The law also provides
for a handbook on the subject, conven-
iently arranged in lessons on the subject
andlone of the books placed In the hand of
every teacher. This Is good idea but If
the handbooks do not come along any
faster than some Of the other literature the
state is supposed to furnish there will be
chance for many accidents before there
Is knowledge of how to prevent them.
Some time ago there was sent to the dis.
trict clerks of the state an order book
which had been prepared In an elaborate
manner, so elaborate that 1t was necessary
to have printed In the front of the book
chart telling how to use 1t, and 1t was
necessary nearly every time an order was
drawn for the district clerk to refer to the
instructions In order that he might keep
straight. 1t was not long, however, be
fore 1t was found that the book was not at
all practical, and district clerks were told
they were not compelled to use 1t, al
though no substitute was given. About
two weeks ago an inspector from the state
board of education went through this
section looking at the accounts of district
clerks and even he was In a quandary
what book he wanted to examine. Before
he left Mount Holly he said he had been
working on set of books which would
be sent out by the first Of July and which
would cover every point In the category
of keeping school accounts. The first Of
July came and week later there came
new order book, this time without any
chart of instructions. The companion
book which was to cure all Ills In the sys-
TEN, did not accompany the order book
and inquiry at the headquarters of the
state board at Trenton ELECTED the reply
that the other book would be along some
time between now and the first OF JAN
uary." 1t is required of custodian of
funds that he make report of his tran
sactions before the first of August. The
state department always furnishes blanks
for this purpose, but up to the present
time they have not made their appearance
and all the satisfaction that can be gained
on the subject is that ''they have been
promised by the printer every day for the
past two months" Meanwhile there is
nothing for the officials who are required
to make up the statements and who are
ready to do their work but to wait until
the blanks are sent. There seems to be 9
necessity for waking up somewhere. An
inspector is sent out to look over accounts
aud books aud to criticise if the work Is
not up to the standard set by the state,
but If the proper books and papers are not
furnished there should not be any COM

ready to show everything In complete

man who has declined a SO, 900 position.
But there may be other things connected
with this declination. The political situa-
ton in New Jersey is growing more and
more interesting daily and there Is need
for strong hand and wise head In Bur-
lington county to keep the Democrats
straight. Perhaps Tommy, who sees far
In advance, has figured all this out and
was willing to sacrifice the great honor Of
being a Persian lamb and to give up the
meagre pittance of SO, 900 year, in order
that he might stay here and keep In line
some OF those Democrats who have been
showing signs of discomfort OF course,
Dick Hughes would be left, and he is an
able assistant to his worthy chief, but two
heads are better than one at any time, and
with wise and sagacious leader to plan
and fearless lieutenant to carry out the
ideas much can be done. And 1t Is easier
to command right ON the spot than 1t
would be by cable over the Persian mount
aims which makes the distance between
here and the city of Teheran so apparent
ly impenetrable.
Commenting on, this subject theNewark
Star says:
Colonel Thomas H. Birch, of Burling-
ton, booked for the ministry to Persia, has
looked up the situation of Teheran. the
Persian capital, the means of getting there
and its distance from Paris, and has de-
cided. on the whole, that he doesn't want
the SO. 900 job. 1t looked too much like
Punishment. He would prefer Belgium.
as Brussels is a short reach from Paris and
London, and these towns are In close COM
munication with the Atlantic liners. But
Colonel Birch has had no diplomatic ex-
perience, and as no important compiled

The best thing about this new tariff, says an exchange, is that it squarely challenges a condition that has four ished practically without interruption and without effective challenge for half a century.

 A CHICAGO gentleman "whO has A been coming to Alaska for ten

He takes this position because there are saloons in Alaska and oth- CT places of questionable resort, and the authorities wink at the violations of law Saloons, he says, are open on Sunday while all other places of business are compelled to close.

 No. there is not so much winking at law violations in Alaska as in Chicago. The temptations which beset the path of the young man in Alaska are not nearly so many nor so varied as in Chicago. or Illinois. There are enough, to be sure, in Alaska, but the pitfalls of the North are as a rule, open, plain and palpable; but that cannot be said of Chicago; there they are con cealed, devious and devilish as we'll as glaringly inviting.
