Head of Cities Committee.

George Cromwell, for sixteen years
Borough President of Richmond, is a
candidate for chairman OF the Cities
Committee OF the state Senate. TO
which he was elected recently.
Although this is his first term in
the Senate. Mr.. Cromwell wears arc

Der Of the Cities Committee of that

Estimate and the Board Of Aldermen
for so many years qualify him par

Will Pass Up Thanksgiving
for Christmas Trade.

Burlington, y. j.. Nov. 14.-Lean and

VII be the Thanksgiving turkeys that
tome out Of New Jersey this fall
Weather conditions have consDired TO
give the festal birds a months COM
mutation Of the death sentence, &C
cOrding to Burlington County poultry
men, and nine-tenths Of the birds
raised on farms in this section will
be held for the Christmas trade.
Farmers say the warm fall is re-
'pons.ble in two ways for the thinness
Of the turkeys this year. In the first
pace, the birds will not put on fat
until frost is in the air. Second, the
farmers say. turkeys are great for
ayers during mild weather, and can
not be kept within feeding distance Of
me farmhouse. hence the heavy corn
feeding 20 which the birds are sub
ieeted for several weeks before mar
ketlng has been impossible this year.
This is the poorest turkey season 1
Rave ever known" said Philip Haines,
Of Jacksonville Road, heretofore an eX-
iensive grower and shipper Of big
thanksgiving birds. "For some reason
the eggs did not hatch well, and only
about 8 per cent Of the young turkeys
lived after leaving the she'll. This con-
ditlon prevails throughout New Jersey.
The dry summer has been hard on
ne foraging birds, because it cut down
heir supply Of insects, which form a
og part OF their food while growing
Even with these drawbacks we might
have had a good number Of birds for
The Thanksgiving market but for the
warm weather Of the last month. 1t
ass been impossible to fatten turkey
during such moderate days, and to XII
Them for the Thanksgiving market
would be TO disappoint the customers
and sustain a big loss On the flock our
selves, so the public will have to get
along as best il can with the lew
Northern turkeys that come into mar
Se,' and supply the deficiency with
chickens, ducks. geese and rabbits

Cattle Dealers Charge of In
competence Denied by Secre-
tary of Agriculture.

Washington, Nov. i4.-The foot and
mouth disease epidemic assumed a new
aspect to-day. when word was received
here from Chicago that the cattle
dealers in that and other cities were
planning to ask for Congressional in
vestigation of the Bureau of Animal In
dustry. They charge that the federal
authorities permitted the disease to
assume the proportions Of an cpl
dcmic through neglect properly to di-
agnOse the first case and failure to
take the most effective measures to
stamp out the epidemic.
The disease spread 10 thirteen more
counties to-day in the states under
quarantine. These were Schuylklll
and Beaver counties, in Pennsylvania;
Davies and Pulaski counties, Indiana;
Huron and Cuyahoga counties, ONO;
De Kalb, Henderson, Henry, Mclean
ard McDonough counties, Illinois, and
Suffolk and Norfolk counties, Massa-

SIMPLIFYING STATE GOVERN. MENT.

The question of simplifying the ma chinery of state government is engag- ing some attention in the West, where new ideas receive greater con- sideration than in the more conserv- ative East.
 The state of Oregon is to vote in November on plan to establish a legislature composed of a single house of fifty members. It is pop ularly referred to as plan to abolish the senate, though why the senate should be abolished in preference to the house, in case a smaller and better selected legislative body is desired, is not apparent.
 Governor Hodges of Kansas is in favor of what he calls shortened legislature" and has advocated the idea energetically since he has occu- pied the executive office. His legis- lature would be smaller in number than the proposed house in Oregon T. "OuAu UC SoAlQOoCu OA ANpA OoSA tatives from the various congression- al districts, according to outlines of the plan that have been published and would be in continuous session.
 In Colorado a vote will be taken in November on plan of commits sion state government, said to have been originated by Judge Ben Lind: sey, of Denver. The short ballot is one feature of this plan. The gov ernor would be the only elective state officer and would appoint cabinet somewhat similar to that named by the president of the United States. The laws would be made by sen ate composed of eighteen or twenty members. The governor would have vastly greater power, but would be subject to recall.
 Legislative bodies as at present constituted are unwieldly and the outcome in legislation is generally unsatisfactory. They are made up largely of inexperienced men and the sessions are so short that new member scarcely gets his bearings
