CARDINAL SHOCKED
BY USE OF LETTER

Newark. = That Cardinal Gibbons
was so shocked at the use to which
James r. Nugent put a letter from the
prelate expressing his views against
woman suffrage that he has deter
mined to refrain from any further
comment for or against suffrage is the
declaration of Mrs. B. j. Byrne, a
Maryland suffragist and close friend
of the cardinal. Mr.. Nugent, through
his press agent, Mr.. Handley, publish
ed the cardinals letter on June %.
Mrs. Byrne, who came to this city
at the instance of the Women's Polit-
zeal Union of New Jersey, based her
allegation upon an interview she had
with Cardinal Gibbons Sept. % in
Baltimore.
Il called by appointment on his en-
inence Cardinal Gibbons at his resi-
dence in Baltimore and at the time
drew his attention to a letter he had
written to a Mr.. Nugent of New Jer-
sey, who was using this letter, as |
felt sure, In a his eminence
would disapprove. The cardinal said
be had no intention of having his opin-
ion on woman suffrage used in q po-
litlcal fight. He had expressed his
opinion as an American citizen. 1t
had no bearing whatever on his posi-
ton as a priest of the Catholic church.
"He declared that the members of
the Catholic faith had an entire right
to act as they saw fit on the question
of woman suffrage, as it was purely a
civic question and had nothing to do
with religious teachings. He did not
know Mr.. Nugent and disclaimed any
responsibility for the use he has been
making of the prelate's letter.

MRS. COLVIN HAS
TRAINED SUFFRAGE
WATCHERS.
Says Fake Suffrage Literature
Is to Be- Circulated In
New Jersey.
WARNS SUFFRAGISTS TO Be
YIGILANT.

Don't ret go until the last moment?'
Is the first and last instruction of Mrs.
Fred II. Colvin, who has been prepar-
ing an army Of suffrage watchers all
over the state of New Jersey for the
polls on Oct. 10. THE women OF
Michigan were counted out" explained
Mrs. Colvin. ""They left the polls
without a signed record on their cards
Of the votes. No suffrage watcher
must leave on Oct. 10 without carry
Ing away a record of the votes, for we
are not going to spoil the result of our
long years of toll by carelessness at
the last moment, and we believe that
our work on election day will largely
decide the issue. We have the rules
of the special election carefully drawn
up and printed and now In the hands
Of thousands Of ~suffragists In the state.
but everywhere I go I find it is not
only necessary to talk about watching
at the polls. but also to keep the SUI
fragists informed of the tricks which
they may expect some elements Of the
opposition to woman suffrage to play
In the last weeks Of the campaign.
Already the enemies of suffrage In
Pennsylvania and New Jersey have
shown that there are no lengths to
which they Will not go. No sooner did
President Wilson come out for suf-
frage than he was the recipient of
forged kilograms of protest, signed
with the names of some highly respect
ed citizens of New Jersey who deny
having sent them. In Pennsylvania
in the past two weeks women have
been employed to damage not only
suffrage, but the characters of well
known supporters of suffrage. They
have disguised themselves as suffrage
workers, but fortunately have been
discovered. In a number OF campaigns
In recent years ONE of our enemies
have resorted to tricks 50 mean as to
bride the lowest type of women to go
down the main streets of the large
towns waving suffrage pennants.
Most important of all, perhaps it Is
necessary to warn the public that all
suffrage literature recommends suf-
frage only. | have received informa-
ton from some reliable sources that q
vast amount of fake suffrage litera-
ture has been prepared for distribu-
ton In our state. This so called 'suf--
frage' literature will recommend meas
ures of different kinds offensive to-
the moral and law abiding voters
of the state. 1t is very difficult to-
prevent its circulation. and all that we
can do is to inform the public that
suffrage literature recommends suf.
frage only and ask them to scrutinize
with suspicion any literature distribut-
ed as suffrage which recommends any
thing but equal suffrage"
Mrs. Colvin, whose husband and two
son are almost as active as she is In
the work. has been specializing in the
election law and is said to know as
much about 1t as any lawyer In New
Jersey.

 CAMBRIDGE, Nov. 21.-The Harvard crimson triumphed over the Yale blue by the remarkable score of forty one to nothing on Cambridge Field this afternoon. Harvard played rings around old Eli from the kickoff until the umpires whistle sounded the close of the last half.
 The Cambridge team seemed to have a jinx on their opponents and obtain ed the best of every play that might have favored their old rivals. Gains of fifty and sixty yards were common and the Yale backs seemed unable to hold the Harvard ends until their own goal was in danger. When the ball was brought up to the line the Yale players would line up like adamant until the opposing players beat their way through by succession of short smashes.

THE UNITED STATES BREWERS

The fifth annual Brewers Conven-
tion report has arrived and contains
several interesting papers which WEI,
read at the recent convention at St.
Louis before the brewers of the Unit
ed States. The principal argument
against national prohibition seems to
be that the loss of the revenue will in
crease the direct taxation. Granting
that this is true, our. brewers fail to
take into consideration that under the
present arrangement part of the
United States is paying this revenue,
the dry territory being free Of the
whiskey revenue burden and the wet
territory paying a double share. The
arguments in favor of booze are
mighty slimsy and it is amusing to
read the alleged reasons why this
country should continue to, allow the
sale Of beer.

THE MEANEsT SINNER ON EARTH

1t is admitted by press and pulpit
alike that the meanest sinner on earth
is the man or woman who live beyond
their means and buy things that they
cannot pay for, AMI leave the merchant
or tradesman to bear the loss. It is
dishonest, dishonorable and is in mo-
sense better than taking money nv
breaking locks. The new proposed
law making it misdemeanor to write
checks where there are no funds will
be welcomed also as this is anothe:
form Of credit abuse that is about on
a par with borrowing cash without per
mission. The fellow who goes to
church on Sunday and worships in a.
suit that his tailor has not been paid
for and spends the week lodging Gre
ldtors is an object of pity, usually
found in every community, shyster
in every sense that is really very little.
better than the man behind the bars
for plain stealing. Of all the unfortr-
nate creatures or families on earth
the most to be pitied and the one that
ought to be Stunned is those that live
beyond their means and force the
merchant to take the loss.

THE TAX COMMISSION.

Recent developments as given to the
press would indicate that the state
tax commission had over estimated
their own work and that the facts
would not warrant their extravagant
claims. There is a growing DISPOSE
ton to consider a five man tax COM
mission a useless extravaganza. Tn.
doubleday a special officer to cover
the state with the same power as the
present tax commission would be USE
full, but in new state such as North
Dakota is and where there is no man.
ufacturing, if we are to have tax
commission at all it should consist Of
one man with secretary at about the
same salary as it paid stenographers
in other occupations. The farmers of
this state are paying the taxes, this
lis an agricultural state and while
there may be many instances where
taxes are being evaded by outsiders,
still they are not so numerous that
they night not be looked after by one
man with the assistance of the local
officers. It will be move in the right
direction for this session of the legis-
lature to cut down the tax commission
to one man, or to dispense with them
altogether, by changing the present
assessing system so as to have a.
county assessor who would be held
responsible.

CIVILIZED WARFARE.

There is one item in this boosted
civilized age that seems to have been

that is the poisonous instruments Of

popular form of displaying great

can Indian was not more cruel in his
ugliest mood than the armies Of to.
day with civilization, humanity and
all the better impulses of the human
heart seems to have been lost sight
of in the struggle of the crowned
heads of Europe for supremacy.
Worst Of all our peace organizations,
our women's organizations and our
churches in America are standing idly
by and permitting the material of war
to be manufactured in this country
and shipped to Europe to deal de.
struction, death and untold suffering
and perhaps in time to be used against
this country and to shoot down our
young American manhood. War is all
that was claimed for it but the pres.
ent uncivilized warfare in Europe Is
very much worse than anything ever
before known in the world and each
day the disregard of civilization il
growing stronger. The toll of starva.

GRAIN ADULTERATION.

Seventy-five carloads of oats intend
ed for export have recently been seiz-
ed by the federal authorities because
they were found to be adulterated
within the meaning Of the Food and
Drugs Act. The adulteration charged
| is the addition of feed barley or water
or both. Under certain circumstances
adulteration in these ways may be SO
profitable that it is believed to be at
times a common practice among grain
shippers. The government, however,
is determined that the practice shall
cease at once, and field representatives
Of the Department of Agriculture have
all been instructed to exercise the ut
most vigilance in detecting future
shipments adulterated in this way.
Low grade barley which is known to
the trade as feed barley" is some
times mixed with oats when there is
sufficient difference between the prices
of the two grains to make this profit
able. This feed barley is the pro-
duct which remains after the best
grade of the grain has been separated
! and removed for mailing purposes. It
contains material percentage of weed
seeds, foreign grains and dust, and
/ the addition to oats of such a product
is held to be a violation Of the Food
and Drugs Act. The addition of wa
ter to oats arises from the fact that
the grain is sold by weight. Investi-
bations of the department of agricul.
ture have revealed the fact that water
is sometimes added in the amount of
from 2 to per cent.
In the opinion of the Government of.
ficials there is no reason why either
OF these practices should be tolerated.
