proper way of disposing of the case.
Political Notes.
Vote the Republican ticket all the
way through. There is no need to
scratch any name and do not trade.
The last cards have been played, the
shouting on both sides has been done
and now remains the report of whether
the voters have done their duty.
Vote for DIR. Priclxitt for member of
the Township Committee of Northamp-
ton. He has made an efficient official
and with his knowledge of local affairs
will be able to work for the towns bene-
fit.
Not much to talk about this week.
Before The News reaches all ofits readers
the result of the election will be known.
There are those who will read this item
before the polls close. If they have not
voted, let them do so at once. Delays
are dangerous.
Sheriff Jordan and prosecutor Atkin-
son have given fair warning what will
happen to those who use money at the
polls today or even before the voting be-
gins. Those who take money for vote
are given warning. If they are caught
it will be their own fault.
Howard E. Alcott has made a fine
member of the Township Committee.
He is young man who has made it his
business to study township affairs and
has been careful in the way he has cast
his vote on all questions. He deserves
reelection and should be given hearty
support.
than one quarter. Former President
Roosevelt let himself loose in Pennsyl-
vania in an attempt to aid in the defeat
of the Republican candidate for United
States Senator. Then he stepped over
the river into New Jersey and dashed the
Democratic party for the manner in
which it has conducted business.
In THE News last week there was an
item which said the receipts for searches
in the County Clerks Office for nine
months reached the sum of $40, .66,
when the item should have read -four
years and nine months" This mistake
was grabbed with delight by some who
are willing to believe anything that will
aid their cause in this campaign, but the
fair-minded people at once saw that
mistake had been made and were willing
to so admit.
Sleeper, of the Palmyra Nea0s, says he
is used to being lied about by the Mirror
and Mount Holly News but he never
mentions the lies he has told at various
times, and says what has peen flung at
him has been as so much water on
ducks back. He might have said as so
many pebbles on the hide of rhinocer-
Gus. We are glad to see that there is
one absolutely pure newspaper man in
this county, which is Sleeper, for he
himself hath said it. lie does not, after
villifying Harry l.. Knight to the ut
most of his feeble power, refuse to ac-
cept an advertisement favoring knight
for which he will probably make charge.
The Herald refused to publish this adj
vertisement on the grounds that it was
principles, not money" with tina
paper. What was it with Sleeper?
Not much use in paying attention to
some of the political stuff handed out at
this late day, but we cannot help MOTTO
ing a little fling in the Bordentown
Register, edited by one James Magee,
who was given sound clicking" last
fall by Assemblyman Peacock. So severe
was the defeat that the Democratic
party would not listen to Jim Magee's
desire to again enter the race, but switch
ed him off with the promise to give him
the Bordentown post Office. Magee says
the Republican organs fatty refused to
advertise the Democratic candidates.
Whether he meant this for the truth OF
sent it out for what it really is,w do not
know. So far as THE NEWS is concerned
it has never refused to take the advertise
ment of a Democratic candidate. In
1911, we had in our columns the adver.
tisement of Joseph b. Lamson, Harrison
G. Wright, Samuel Nj. Roberts and
Elwood Hart, all that were offered
This year we have two advertise
ments-all that have been offered. Sc
much for that part of the affair. Mage
has not yet recovered from the sting O
the defeat administered to him, much
: of which came from his own party anC
he has tried to belittle Asssmblymar
Peacock, one of the things he has tried
to put over being the failure of Peacock
, to secure the passage of bible bill.
Well, if Jim Magee had gone to tn,
