The assertion has been frequent
ly made in the Topeka Capital
and was also made by one of the
speakers at the Kansas Day Club,
that there were several hundred
more employees on the strife payro |
under the Hodges administration
than under the Stubs administra-
ton. This Statement was in line
with the Capitals consistent
course of misrepresentation.
Last week, the Governor had the
figures compiled as to the number
of state employees on the payrolls
for December, 1912, under the
Stubs administration, and those
on the state payrolls in December.
1913, undcr the Hodges administra-
ton. These figures taken from the
books in the Auditors office,
show that there are 1917 less
employees under the Hodges ad-
ministration than under the Stubs
administration. And this count
includes large number of persons
in departments which cost the
state nothing, but are paid wholly
from fees paid by persons for
whom the services are rendered.
The fact is that figures given

TRENTON, Jan. 2S.-Fdward G.
Stokes was the principal speaker at
a Mercer County Republican rally In
Masonic Temple last night. The hall
was filled to its capacity and the Re
publican Gubernatorial standard
bearer in the last campaign was well
received by his hearers. Mr.. Stokes
in part said:
IF you had rallied around the bal
lot box last November as you have
here tonight you could have marched
in the inaugural parade last Tuesday
We fought a good fight and will soon
come back to our honors. The fact
that the Democratic vote last Noven4
Der was smaller than in any campaign
since 1901 shows that the majority
is still with the great thinking peo-
pie"
Mr.. Stokes maintained there was
only room for two great political
parties-the Republican and Demo-
cratic. Referring to national politics,
he said:
1.-THE Democratic party of today is
q small unit contained in the hat of g.
single individual and he halls from
New Jersey. He makes Joe Cannon
look like a pilter when the Mexican
situation is discussed in the Gulf OF
Mexico, where the wireless does not
reach and the newspaper boys cannot
hear.
1--WE must recognize the right of
industry to exist without getting
permit from Washington. The Re-
publican party does recognize this
right and will soon come back to its
own"

AS TO SCHOOL SITE
NutIey Superintendent to Make
Survey to Determine Prop

To help the Nutley Board of Edu-

proposed new school John R. Beach
Ter, superintendent of schools, will
make a survey of the town. He will
prepare a map showing the number
of school children in each block He
is to have the work completed by
Saturday for submission to the board.
The need of the new school and its
location provided a lengthy discus
sion last night Although the matter
has been considered by the board for
a long time, little progress has been
made. 1T is necessary that something
is to be put in the annual budget in
March.
Commissioner William J. i<insley
made q motion that an expert in
school affairs be engaged to make
u survey of the town to aid the
board in selecting a site for the
building. Richard x. Booth, presi-
dent of the board. said that with the
data which would have to be fur
nished such a person. the members
could work out the problem for
themselves. The motion was lost by
a vote Of FIVE to three.

tho board had taken the matter Of
selecting the site of the present
Washington School in its own hands
and had made a serious mistake. He
said the location of that school was
in a more dangerous place than that
of any school building he nows Of
in the State. being directly adjacent
to steam and trolley railroads,
duarries. and widely-used thor
aughfare. Furthermore, he said. the
building is not in the centre of popu-
lation. He remarked that if the
members had shut their eyes they
could not have struck a worse
locality.
It vas then decided to have the
superintendent of schools make the
survey.
