Protests Against Quinn's
Anti-Injunction Measure
Especial to the Newark star.1

TRENTON, Feb. 1.-THE anti
injunction bill, known as Assembly
bill No. IA, which aims at the proven
ton of enjoining of striking workmen
by municipalities, came up for a
hearing in the Assembly today. The
bill was introduced by Arthur A.
Quinn, of Middlesex county. and is
receiving the vigorous support of the
labor unions. This is the third time
that a bill of this nature has ap-
peared In the Legislature.
The bill was opposed by James A.
Emery, of Washington, D. c., repre-
sentative of the New Jersey Manu-
facturers' Association, who objected
to it because it would abolish certain
rights of property, which he said are
inalienable under the constitution and
cannot be taken away by the Legisla-
ture. In support of the bill appeared
J. F. Summer a lawyer, of Salem.
representing Branch No. 6, of the
Glass Bottle Blowers of the United
States and Canada, who pointed out
that the bill would not in any way in
terfere or prevent the equal protection
of any person or corporation.
He cited as an instance of the effect
of injunctions, the case of the Jonas
Glass Company against the officers
and ninety men of the Bottle Blowers
Association, in which the company
restrained the association so effectu-
ally that whether we were right or
not in refusing to work under the con-
ditions offered by the Jonas Glass
Company, we had no right to say sc
nor to submit our case to anyone

Sunday Liquor and Lotteries
Are Under Fire in Wharton

DOVER, Feb. 17.-That an investi-
cation of alleged Illegal selling and
places where lotteries are in opera
ton should be commenced at once
was the sentiment of the mayor and
Council at Wharton at meeting held
in the Borough Hall last night. The
decision was caused by the numerous
reports that illegal selling was opera
tive in the borough and that men
were seen staggering through the
streets on Sunday. The marshal was
instructed to commence an investiga-
ton.
The police committee reported that
an arrangement had been made with
the Board of Education to have the
marshal perform the duties of truant
officer, as has been customary hereto
fore, but the new attendance officer
law orders that the appointee report
each month and give several days a
week to school work. The committee
was instructed to complete the ar
rangement with the board in accord
ance with the law regulating the
work

= Your point may be well taken. We

against such condition of affairs

part, conduct our contests honestly

the great American spirit of fair
play would govern the actions of
our contestants. To absolutely guard
against combinations" assumed

ample: Three for tree and vice-versa,
pail for pale, sun for son and so on.
Because, if you do, that will make it

a book or song. In the Proverb Con-
test it would be quite different
thing / think, this not being a con-
test exclusively among the school

Either award cash of the similar

MADISON. Feb. 17.-John Edward
clarey, editor and publisher Of the
Madison Eagle, died in his home In
Green avenue early today of pneu-
monia. after an illness of ten days

Mr.. Clarey was editor and publisher
of newspapers and magazines in many
States at various times. He was born
in Franklin county, Vermont, Janul
ary 7, 1855. He left home at the age
of nine years and worked on farm
until he was thirteen. Then he be-
came a clerk in a drygoods store in
