The Republican mass meeting was

evening in Hunts theatre. d. Miles
Rigor presided and the speakers were
Senator Walter e. Edge, Of Atlantic
City; Assemblyman Stevens, of Cape
May, candidate for Senator, and Mark
Lake, Of Ocean City, the candidate for
Assembly. The latter made a good
i'm impression upon the voters. Mr.. Stew
n explained his attitude toward the
pound fishermen and the hook and line
fishermen and bis vote on a certain
labor bill, which seemed to satisfy his
hearers that his course was a proper
one. Mayor Smith was on the plat
form and being called upon said the
fishing industry of the county produced
more evenu than the products of the
farms, and that no man should vote to
destroy either industry.

Important Notice

The Cape May County Vocational
School in Agriculture will open on the
second floor of the bank building,
Court House, Monday, Nov. LIST, 1916.
The first session will begin at nine
a. m. and continue until four p. M,
subject to change subsequently if cir
cumstances seem to require it. Boys
and girls and men and women are
eligible TO admission from the age OF
IA to 20 or more.
The work will include full courses
part time courses and evening lectures
upon practical agricultural subjects.
During four or five months the theory
will be taught. After this the teacher
will continue bis work on the farms in
practical direction of each individual
student.
All who are interested should discuss
the matter with me, because the school
is to be organized in such a manner az
will meet the needs of students, rather
than by compelling students to adjust
themselves to an infiexible program.
All students should begin with the
first session of the school, but where
this is impossible admission may be
obtained later.
1t will be wise to come and arrange
about courses on first day.
A pamphlet containing complete in-
formation will be mailed upon appli.
cation.

The Wharton Estate has been re-
ceiving an annual net revenue approx
imating $21 900 from The sale Of pro-
ducts from the tract which could be
increased By the sale of matured tim
Der and other by-produets, which the
Wharton Estate has not felt at liberty
to dispose of while the state had an
option on the property.
The Conservation Commission saye:
"Unquestionably the Wharton tract
contains of great value and
of greater value to the state than any
ne else. In the course of time,
whether they realize it or not, the mu-
inequalities of the state will need addi-
tional water supply. This tract will
furnish efficient water for a popula-
ton of 2 1000, 600 people. The PROPOSE
ton should be considered from a water
supply standpoint"
Unless the Wharton Water Tract is
purchased at this time there is a strong
probability that it will be sold to private
tutElCStS unu SuO-uiNiuCu IDbO bLuhll
tracts, which will make its future pur-
chase for water supply purposes inn
practicable and at u very much en-
HANGED price, ven II acquired by con-
domination, and introduce new ele-
ments and additional population which
would endanger It's use for potable pur-
poses.
The people of New Jersey have real
lied within the last few years the inn
portance of State ownership of the pot
able waters. The State Water Supply
Commission has been making its fight
against the greatest odds. Selfish in
terests have been at work on all sides
to retard the proposition of State owner
ship aud State conservation, and the
Commission warns the people of this
fact. This is the first opportunity that
they have had TO help conserve the
water of the State and it is their duty
as citizens to look forward and protect
themselves and families, and to vote
in favor Of this referendum on Nov. 2.
New York has spent $3.50, 0OO, 900 for
water supply; Massachusetts, has spent
$91, DOC, 000, New jersey has spent
nothing.

EVERYBODY STRIKE AT ONCE.

In the last few months Chicago has
had several strikes. Few of them
have been successful, most of them
failures or miserable compromises.
The garment workers outlook does
not look very bright. What is the
reason? Is the strikebreaker the
cause of these defeats of labor or is
the power Of the employers too
great? No. The cause of labor's
defeats is to be found in the lack of
proper unity and solidarity among
the workers already organized. Each
trade fights its own battles and all
the rest are Indifferent to its strug-
giles and defeats. :
The street car strike lasted only
two days and was most successful
because the street car men occupy
a strategic position. Their strike af-
fected and paralyzed the whole COM
munity, and the city authorities were
very anxious to settle it in. salts
factory manner as soon as possible.
But after they returned to work and
the surface mems demands were ar

as far as four miles in this city seek
ing comfort stations and suffered
terribly. 1t is uncivilized and bar
berous that the present conditions
should exist.
1 try to avoid saloon closets for
various reasons. Everything is I'M
canny in these saloon closets. DR..
Somebody is always tackled up on the
walls, promising to cure, which is
disgusting. The obscene writings
and carvings on the walls are most
sickening. These places are gener-
ally filthy and dangerous from the
disease standpoint. The coarseness,
the language, barroom stories and
general atmosphere in a saloon
makes one feel rather chilly when
wishing to attend to natures require
ments.
l believe a comfort station should
be located every four blocks through
out the city. The place for ladies
should not be in the same block with
that of the men. The aldermen
could give bonus to druggists, bar

SELL AS ASSESSED.-Would the
following scheme equalize taxes?
Have law passed that all property
owners be required to sign schedule
valuing their holdings at the price
they would take for it, and be obliged
to sell at that figure. The tax would
then be assessed on their own vaIu-
atoms. Further, any property owner
could raise the value of his holding
by paying a small fee, but could not
reduce the valuation of his property
until after the current tax was paid.
Naturally, any property not sched-
Qled would revert to the state.
What do you think of this?-O. M.

can mention, and these denials lead
to more wretchedness and misery
than anything else. Saloon politics
have fought this much-needed re-
