Editorial Comment
The Rising Of the voters Against Re
peal.
washington Post.)

wv lOil tpSl.t
The advocates of repeal of the tolls
exemption law are naturally doing
their utmost to minimize the effect
of the heavy blows which popular dis
approval of that policy has dealt them
these past few days.
II the gag law had not been invoked
in the House of Representatives: If
full discussion of the repeal bill had
been allowed; IL the people of the con-
gressional districts Of the country had
been given the time to voice their SEN
timents to their representatives In the
House, the repeal might have been de-
feated there, but the administration
would have been stronger, the Demo-
cratic party more united, and the
Democratic representation in the next
Congress much greater than now looks
possible.
1t is fortunate for the Democratic
senator's that they have taken time for
consideration and deliberation of this
proposed repeal-and it is fortunate
for the country as weil-for they can
not fail to note that their votes for re-
peal will but continue in force and
emphasize In action the political ava
candidate in the Seventh congressional
district Of New Jersey on Tuesday last.
The letter Of the President in which he
said to Candidate O'Byrne, Il hope
sincerely that the people Of your dis
trict will elect you to the House and
in this way not only do you honor,
but also show their Judgment with re-
gard to the present administration"
is in itself an estoppel to any pleas
as to the potential influence of the
verdict rendered against the repeal
candidate.
The constant demand Of the man
ayers In the district for the services Of
the Secretary of State as speaker In
the campaign; the personal attention
and unsparing efforts of Senator
Hughes to the contest-these accent
tuated the great desire for a tolls re-
peal endorsement.
The call to such orators as Senator
Lewis, of Illinois, and Representatives
Carter Glass and ]. III. Covington In
formed the country as to the impor-
lance of this election and as to the
efforts brought to bear upon the vot-
ers to secure an Endorsement for the
repeal Of the tolls exemption law.
The eloquent words Of Senator Lewis
addressed to the voters Of the dis
trict on Monday remain with the coun-
try and are deserving Of reproduction:
THE real question to be decided to-
morrow Is whether the people want
to uphold the President or give to ev-
cry newspaper in the country the OPP
portunity on Wednesday morning to
say that New Jersey. the home of the
President, has repudiated him at the
end Of fourteen months Of admins
tration.'
That Senators Lewis and Hughes,
Representatives Glass and Covington,
and all the other allied forces for re-
peal did everything possible to gain
victory for repeal or to stem the
tide of defeat against 1t goes without
saying. They were faithful to repeal,
il not to the Democratic platform.
They read the districts opinion as
to repeal on Wednesday morning.
Drukker, against repeal. received TO-
$40 votes. O'Byrne. for repeal. 5240
votes.

GET MONEY To AID
HOME TRADE PLAN
Summit Trade Board President
Induces Colleagues to Agree
With Him.
Special to tho Evening star.

SUMMIT, Nov. 11.-President c.
H. c. Jagels. of the Board of Trade,
succeeded last night in securing the
financial support of the Trade Board
for the home trade movement, which
is under way here. Mr.. Jagels found
some opposition to the proposition
among the members, some Of whom
expressed opposition to having the
Trade Board assist in financing
the cost of an advertising campaign
to induce people ito buy in Summit"
The Trade Board president, however.
declared that the proposition is q le
ultimate function of the board, and
he did not PROPOSE at least while he
is president of the board, to have it
charged, as in the past, with being
unconcerned in the business affairs
of the city. Mr.. Jagels said there are
thousands of dollars spent out Of this
city which ought better be discussed
here, and he believed 1t to be the
duty of every member Of the Trade
Board to assist in supporting local
business houses, to the end that the
city may have better and bigger
mercantile institutions.
Mr.. Jagels's views were Endorsed
by other members of the board, and
finally a motion prevailed referring
the matter to the trustees, with au-
thority to spend such money as they
deem necessary to aid the home
trade movement.
The business men are endeavoring
to secure $1,000 for a campaign of
advertising to attract buyers to this
city. Among the DIRECTORS to the
Trade Board lending its assistance was
william Scofeld Day. who held the
office of president of the board prior
to the election of Mr.. Jagels. Mr..
Day didn't believe he should be asked
to contribute to advertising cost to
direct him where to spend his money.
This expense should be borne by the
local business men alone, was Mr..
Days opinion. Walter Hess saio
that while there is plenty Of milk
purchased herea bouts, Summit resi-
dents pay fifteen cents quart for
milk, while in New York the price is
ten cents. Dr. d. f. English declared
the milk sold here to be the best on

mittee, but to take over its funds.
