Local Political Nagging.

The present campaign in the bor-
ough of Fort Lee has descended into
singing affair This is to be
regretted, and it should not exist. In
the present form of borough govern
ment, there is no pay for any of
the officers except few where the
time demanded of the office makes a
small compensation necessary.
What is it, then, that causes promi-
nent citizens who are urged to run
for the elective offices to use the per-
sonal attack SO strenuously? 1t is
always case of the pot calling the
kettle black. 1t isn't a question OF
provable efficiency on either side,
but largely personal abuse.
Now "The Palisadian" knows the
respective party candidates in the
borough; all are men of character
and high standing in the community,
yet we find a scramble for office as
intense as though the position sought
were worth thousands of dollars.
What is it these gentlemen want;
to serve the people or themselves?
Is political campaign made for
defamation of mems characters
1t would seem so.

much is militarism, and that is bad
bad, bad, as the Germans are teach
ing us. They are the great teachers
of peace, and, be sure, Henry, they
shall learn that lesson themselves
down to the last line. Leave peace
propaganda to them; but you, if you

"The Palisadian" would feel safe
under ordinary conditions in the
hands of either party, so far as a
question of capacity to run the local
government is concerned.
The trouble is that even in little
bit of a municipal government like
Fort Lee, political obligations, nc
matter what the smallness of the
case, must be looked after, and this
is always the cause of questionings
gossip and doubt.
1t becomes question, therefore, il
the wisest type of government is not
really the business manager form
under a small commission in whom
responsibility should rest. Certainly
it is nerve racking to go through the
present system of party politics il
which vituperation and slurring are
hurled like hot shot or old shoes ovel
the back fence at invading cats. Any
man who values his reputation neeC
not enter political campaign with
the hope of lettering it.
There really isn't any sense tt
much of the criticism one sees in 6
campaign in small municipalities, anc
many of the things one reads or hears
were better unsaid. Nobody wants
to be mollycoddle, but neither is
there justice in forcing the belief
that one is the "foulest fend in al
Florence" as Shakespeare says, OF
"the mildest hammered gentleman
that ever cut throat or scuttled q
ship"

The Freebooter Candidates.

"The Palisadian" stated several
weeks ago in an editorial touching
upon the Freebooter issue, and the
concentration that was at that time
centering upon the county engineer,
that it was going to be no easy going
to get rid of that well-entrenched
official.
Subsequent events have verified
that prediction. The first fruits OF
his fighting back are now found in
the seven bracketed nominees on the
Democratic ticket. These gentle
men were all solemnly pledged be-
fore the voters of Bergen to put out
the county engineer. But just at the
time when the situation was begin
ming to inspire bit of hope that
perhaps there would be an honest
and capable administration, the
Democrats announce their platform,
fair enough in all it's promises, but
not a syllable on the engineer issue.
Now, what was all the rumpus
kicked up over the engineer for in
the first place? Clearly the politi
clans of all parties realized that the
engineer was the greatest load the
county was carrying. To this end,
therefore, every party pledge was
conferred upon the one big perform
ance of getting rid of him. That was
the slogan, the cry, the campaign
determination The Republicans
shouted "Down with the Engineer"
The Democrats echoed the sentiment.
But just as soon as the primary is
over, the situation cools off little.
The first evidence of this waver-
ing comes with the engineer dropped
as an issue. True, two of the Demo-
cratic Freebooter nominees have re-
fused to accept or sign the platform,
but five have actually swallowed the
document bodily. To the credit of
Messrs. Alderman and Mahoney, they
stand pat on the original engineer
clause and refuse to accept the plat
form.
There is this conclusion to be
drawn from this situation: That the
county engineers office must be
either a crime upon the body polite,
or else it is the most all-powerful
and autocratic pile-driving bludgeon
that was ever put into one mans
hands.

Mayor Neumann brought up again
the question of installing a telephone
in the borough hall, for the use of the
police force, and the adding of one or
two men to the force. Councilman
Sammis believed that first of all the
police ordinance regulations should be
remodelled. A head should be pro-
vided for at good salary, secured
as the result of a fair competitive ex-
animation. Without the proper head
the force would be harmed by the ad-
dition of more men. The mayor sug-
gested that the matter be referred to
the police committee and Attorney
Agnew who should remodel the ordi-
nance to fit changed conditions in the
borough. This should be done by
January l.. This did not mean that

An Enterprise of The Human

This Nation was from the begin
ming a spiritual enterprise, and you
have seen the spirits of the two
once-diyided sections of this country
absOluted united. Some wars
are to be regretted, some wars mar
the annals of history, but some wars
show that the spirit of man springs
to great enterprises that are even
greater than his own mind had con-
ceived.
You set the nation free for That
great career of development which
the world has witnessed since the
Civil War. But, for my part, l would
not be proud of the extraordinary
physical development of this country
of its extraordinary development in
in material wealth and financial
mower. did l not believe that the
people of the United States wish all
of this power devoted to ideal ends.
The United States were founded,
not to provide free homes, but to
assert human rights.-FrOm the
