FIGHT IN PROSPECT
OVER NEW JERSEYS
BANK COMMISSIONER
Republican Senator'S May Seek
to Prevent Confirmation
of LaMonte for
Rich Job
BUSINESS AND POLITICS

TRENTON, n. J. Feb. s.-There has
been much adverse criticism over the re-
fusal Of the Republican majority In the
New Jersey Senate to confirm some of
the nominations Of Governor James F.
Fielder for important state offices.
II has been alleged, as In the case OF
the nomination OF william II. Richmond.
to he Prosecutor of the Pleas Of Gloucester
County that the appointment Is being held
up for purely political reasons, There Is
one nomination, however, that OF George
NJ. Lamonte to succeed himself as Com
missioner of Banking and Insurance for
another term of three years, which the
Republican majority IN the Senate may
hold up without being charged with do
ing so for partisan reasons only.
Republicans in the Senate ere In pos
session Of information which indicates
that Commissioner LaMonte. while act
ing as supervisor Of all the state banking
and trust companies as well as insurance
companies and building and loan associa.
tions. has been very active in endeavor-
ing to have these companies use a partiC.
ular brand of safety paper made by the
firm of George NJ. La Monte & Sons with
mills at Nutley, y. J.. of which company
Commissioner LaMonte is the president.
Under ordinary circumstances Mr.. La
Monte. like any other business man,
would have the right to advertise his
wares in any manner he felt disposed
soner of Banking and Insurance, some
bankers think il is at least "indclicate,"
on his part, to send them circulars over
his own signature lauding the virtues of
HIS safety paper" in the manner in
whi III he is alleged t. have done 1t. But
few of them care to discuss 1t; some, pre-
sumably because they think their insti-
tutions may be subject to Commissioner
LaMontes supervision for another three
years, and others for the reason that
they consider 1t an incident too small for
consideration Nevertheless the banks |
may bring sufficient pressure on the Re-
publican majority in the Senate TO with
hold confirmation of Commissioners La
Montes appointment for another term.
The commissioner does not deny having !
attempted to boost his business nor does |
he deny having sent out circular letters |
over his own signature as president or |
the company, but 1t Is said that he has |
recently discontinued the practice.

STOMACH TROUBLES
The Great Woman's Medi-
cine Often Just What
Is Needed.

We are so used to thinking Of Lydia
T.. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound as
remedy exclusively for female ills that
we are apt to overlook the fact that it
is one of the best remedies for disorders
of the stomach.
For stomach trouble of women it is
especially adapted, as it works in COM
plete harmony with the female organ
ism, since it contains the extracts of the
best tonic roots and herbs. 1t tones up
the digestive system, and increases the
appetite and strength. Here is what
one woman writes showing what this
medicine does:-
Newfield, N. Y.-"I am so pleased
TO say can recommend Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound as an eco
nomical and beneficial remedy in most
ailments pertaining to women. At
least l found it so by only taking two
bottles. / had indigestion in a bad
form and l am now feeling in the best
of health and owe it all to Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. -
Mrs. BURR WILLIAMS, r. ID. No. 20, New
field, NY.
Many women suffer from that cal
gone feeling" and "feel 80 faint, -
while doing their work. Ten chances
to one their digestive system is all out
of order. A tablespoonful of Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound afte,
each meal should completely remedy this
condition in few days.
