nation states II il my opinion that a

, Take. for example. two ORGANIZATIONS
or slated candidates and only one in
dependent candidate who 4 running
on his merit. and not the choice OF
bosses or OF the organization. there
would be concentration OF the or
ganized force for the two slated men
and they would have the opportunity
OF voting for both men: the man that
would honestly and Conscientiously
want 10 vote for the independent can
didate. or the candidate slated against.
would have TO vote for him alone and
not vote a second choice. for by so
doing he would kill his vote BY giving
one OF the other candidates the bene-
NJ OF his second choice vote as II
would count against the vote which
he cast for his first choice. as he
would have no other person to vote
lis second choice vote for other than
either one or the other OF the slated
candidates. II he cast IL at all. This
is hut one OF the danger points. as |
view Il. I believe the people can Sc

casting OF two. good. honest and hon
orable men. and no advantage given TO
anyone that can be avoided
Minority Chosen Men.
Il call your attention 10 the fact
that the present congressman at-large
and all FIVE OF the present congress
men are minority chosen and were
not elected by a majority vote. The
commemorative was elected by a
minority vote OF over 1900 and the
congressman by minority vote
ranging down to 7Ol The same Is
true Of the election OF 1912. the con-
gresham at-large and the congress-
men from the first. second and third
districts were elected by a minority
vote and one from the fourth by a
majority vote OF $50 and from the
fifth by 2,446. Also all of the present
state Office holders. governor. secre-
tary OF state. auditor. treasurer. super
intendent OF free schools. attorney
general and commissioner of agricul-
ture. were all elected by a plurality
vote and not a majority vote and

ned With the selections that they
made and that the state has capable
and worthy men at the helm.
Lincoln Got Minority Vote.
We sing the songs OF praise TO
President Abraham Lincoln. His
name is sacred and revered by all to-
day and his record as President has
never been eXceHed and his wise
teachings are the guiding stars OF the
nation today: he. too. was elected by
a plurality vote when first chosen as
our President. he received 4Oea of the
votes cast. the Constitutional Union
Party. 1870: Mr.. Douglas. 3Ocs and
Ar. Breckenridge. 1SC. The people
made wise choice by a minority vote
upon this occasion. I might also call
your attention to the fact that our
present president Is the choice OF a
minority vote"

College and the State University is
. question that the people OF the State
are beiag called upon to decide. Il
Is being urged by the friends and sup
porters OF enforcement that this Is
strictly an educational measure, Who'll
~ free from any faint Of commercialism
and should therefore be properly
presenttd to the voters To this end
an executive committee with r. T. MIL
ner. manager. has been organized for
the purpose OF convincing the people
that II Is to their interest as II is To the
cause of education to separate these
two great educational institutions. II
is a time when the people should take
that interest that will enable them to
vote with thorough knowledge and per.
feet understanding of what they think
Is best"
We rather think that the two
schools should be granted divorce.
After that. however, each should be
given its own field OF work without
trespass. The A. a NJ. College should
be that and nothing more. and the L.
loi T. should touch agriculture and me-
chanics only theoretically. The State
Department Of Agriculture should be
abolished and It's duties given to A. &
