EDITORIAL

In a chapel talk Monday, Mr.. Smith
said that many people study in an I'M
conscious frame of mind and although
they may be able to repeat part of
what has been read are totally una
ware of what it is all about. For ex-
ample, a pupil writing up an expert
ment in chemistry. joined the first part
of one and the last part of another
all as one experiment.
How can we remedy this bad condi-
ton of things? By being sure that
we know how to study, by asking our
sevles continually if we are studying
or only dreaming.
This is good advice. Let's try it.

DEMOCRATIC FOLLY

Has the Democratic party become so intoxi-
Gated with power that it can afford to ignore
past history and treat the public with abso-
lutte indifference 1t seems that as soon as
Woodrow Wilson resigned as governor and
went to Washington, the same element that
has kept the Democratic party out of Office
for the past seventeen years, until Woodrow
Wilson swept the state, renewed its energies
in an apparent effort to place the party back
where it was before.
Not only are efforts being made to discredit
the party platform and ignore the pledges
bossism, whereby the popular will is throttled
by padded roll calls and other methods well
known to the political boss, are being adopted.
Of course, we all know the unspeakable James
Nugent is back of this. We fnd also, just
as we feared at the beginning Of the legisla-
tive session, that Speaker Taylor is Nugent' s
willing tool. Assemblyman Martin, another
lieutenant Of the Smith-Nugent machine is
playing the part on the floor of the House and
altogether they seem to be riding over their
Iel1OW rough SnOQ.
Evidently, these men care absolutely moth
ing about the Democratic party or the well
fare of the state at large as long as their own
personal interests are served. Perhaps it is
not so much their own personal interests eth
er, as it is the personal interests of James
Nugent, who is always looking out for him
self and who is using all the political power
he possesses to strengthen his hold on the
public. By continuing the course that has
been followed since President Wilson left
Trenton the Democratic party will go before
the public at the fall election thoroughly dis
credited and giving their opponents every op-
portunlty to point out that the cold guard" ;"
is once more in the saddle and that the party
can no longer be trusted.
With Nugent holding the controlling power
there seems to be nothing left for the indie
pendent progressive voters to do but to join
the Progressive party, for there is little to be
hoped for from the Republicans as long as
such men as Franklin Murphy and Edmund
Wakelee are head of that organization There
are few days left whereby the Democrats
can beat the old machine and show the people
that they are determined to follow out the
policies SO well established by Woodrow Will
son. Failure to do this only invites defeat in
November. ~-~~H

COAL COMPANY DIVIDENDS.


I'm view of the recent exposure of the man
ner in which the price of coal is kept up, pub
lished in the EVENING NEWS, the news sent
out from New York last Thursday to the effect
tha the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western
Coal Company had issued an unexpectedly
fat dividend, is of particular interest.
1t seems the stockholders of this concern,
which is, as was shown in the NEWS articles,
subsidiary Of the Delaware, Lackawanna &
Western Railroad Company, were surprised
when the directors announced an extra dis
bursement OF twenty per cent, in addition to
the regular quarterly two and-a half per cent.
dividend At this time last year the company
paid an extra dividend of ten per cent. The
fact that the extra dividend is double this year
shows more conclusively than anything else
Just how unnecessary was the increase in the
price Of coal which the people have been
forced to pay during the past winter
The news from New York goes on to say
that Wall street was surprised at the announ-
cement of the extra dividend. The anthracite
coal roads have been pleading poverty since
the great strike of last year, when they were
compelled to advance wages. Early last sum-
mer all Of the coal roads increased the price
of anthracite coal by from twenty FIVE to fifty
cents ton
The coal concern was formed by the Lacka-
wanna Railroad in June, 1909, because of the
Hepburn commodity law The railroad de-
elared fifty per cent. cash dividend in order
to allow it's stockholders to buy the 6,590,000
stock of the coal concern. Now the stock
holders of the Lackawanna Railroad not only
receive twenty per cent, from their railroad
stock with an occasional extra dividend
thrown in, but ten per cent. regularly from
their coal stocks and an extra dividend of
twenty per cent. this year.
AT this rate the stockholders of the various
coal companies must certainly welcome the
strikes that take place in the coal regions, as
it gives them an excuse for gorging the people
out of few more dollars
dividend of six per cent, which was the
amount figured on in the estimates made by
the EVENING NEWS in its investig cation,
without any extra dividends would make the
stock Of any coal company "gilt edged" But
the regular dividend of the Lackawanna coal
company is ten per cent. year, and then to
cut an extra melon" of twenty per cent, in
addition, makes thirty per cent. income on
the stock. Yet the people were forced to pay
from 1913 to 81 ton for coal and the rail
;,l che
was iusti6able because of hte slight raise in
wages for the miners which had been granted
The EVENING NEWS claims that coal can
be sold IN Perth Amboy with legitimate
profit to all concerned for $5.35. The figures
that have just been brought in the Lacka-
wanna dividend substantates the ENENING
NEWS claim. We wonder how much longer
the public will be at the mercy of this coal
monopoly.
