If Edge WHY Not COLGATE ?


y The News had not intended to cast
r any stones at Senator Austen Colgate in
t the present campaign but he and his
e hackers have been so assiduousIy attack
S ing Senator Edge because he halls from
5 wicked Atlantic City," hence must be
J very wicked himself, thatthere are some
, people who really think that Senator
Edge must have hoofs and horns. The
American Issue, a paper published in
the interests of the anti-saloon league.
has this to say:
Senator Austen Colgate was an hon
ored guest of the Home Brewing Com
Ipany on a beer-fest excursion of the
steamer Ajax to Witzel's Grove, College
Point, Staten Island, August 2. The
Home Brewing Company controls a
Hudson counties. In the Senator's ret
inue were his campaign manager
Frank ]. Brock, who, while postmaster
permitted employees to arrange with the
brewers to supply carload of beer for a
Sunday excursion; and Sheriff Ralph B.
Schmidt, who has been repeatedly fur
nished with lists of keepers of saloons
and dives in Newark that f1agrantly
violate the laws, and who permits SUM-
day booze selling and protected COM
mercialized vice to continue.
"Other honored guests of the brewers
were ex-Mayor Jake Haussling, who
readers of the American Issue will re-
member, received "call.do from
Governor Woodrow Wilson for his pro-
lection of disorderly houses in the city
of Newark, and ex-Sherrff John F.
Monahan. who shared with HaussIing in
the responsibility and in the 'call-down'
and who replied to the Governor that
the charges were 'unwarranted and in
essence false A rebuke from the Chief
Justice followed, and these protectors of
vice had to see every one of the gang
whom they guarded go to the peniten-
tiary
This is the bunch that Austen Col
gate consorts with in search for votes to
elect him Governor Of New Jersey AS
State Senator he cast in his lot with the
brewers and did their bidding in oppos-
ing the Gaunt local option bill. A word
from him as citizen of Essex county B
sustaining the fight waged by church
forces to compel saloons to obey the law,
and to close disreputable resorts, would {
have made him persona non grata with /
the brewers and the birds-of a-feather 7 7
with whom he hobnobbed on the steam !
or Ajax. He did not speak the word,
and is therefore worthy of their highest :
highest esteem and the support that he !
seeks" E
Senator Edge and his friends have !
kept quiet under the lashings that he
has received by those who want to see :
him defeated at any cost, but it seems :
proper to print the above. It =
nay not be to the discredit of Senator t
Colgate but it is to be regretted that such 8
IN effort has been made to make Sena- i
or Edge such terribly wicked man 3
While his opponent is held up as the z
model of perfection. If any further 3
proof of the coalitions that Senator Col v
gate is forming is needed all one has to 2

Criminal Court.

Several criminal matters, of minor i'm
portance, were disposed Of by Judge Lip
pincott, on Thursday.
William Mitchell pleaded not guilty
to charge of assault preferred by Re-
becca Lowden, of Texas, in Mount
Laurel township. Clifford r. Powell
represented the defendant.
The trouble was aboue a shirt which
Mrs. Lowden was laundrying and to
which Mitchell claimed ownership. She
said it belonged to her brother-in-law
Mitchell walked into her kitchen, picked
up the shirt and left the house. She
followed him and demanded the shirt.
She testified that he picked up an axe,
and threatened to strike her, SO she
grabbed broom with which to defend
herself.
The defendant denied threatening her
in any manner, and told quite clearly
about his ownership of the shirt.
The Court adjudged Mitchell not
guilty.
William j. Morrison, whose case had
been partly heard the previous Thurs
day, was next given attention. He waE
charged with threatening to iniure his
wife with hammer The defendant
was intoxicated when the trouble oc
Cured.
After his two sons had given thei
testimony, Judge Lippincott asked Nor
rison what he had to. say "The Who'll,
family is against me, so there is no us,
in my saying anything" he replied.
AS the prisoner had spent IA days il
Jail awaiting trial, the Court suspende,
sentence and placed Morrison on proba
ton.
Herbert Farmer and Elmer Arthur
both eolored, pleaded guilty to stealin
few cantaloupes from Mount Laure
farmer. Sentence was suspended an

guilty to assault and battery on Ell
Reeves, his sweetheart He said he ha
e been paying attention to the girl an
had proposed to her and had been a,
: cepted. He suggested that they elope |
Elkton, Md, and get married. Sh
i agreed to this, but afterward change
a her mind. The assault, he said, COZ
sisted Of his grabbing her by the shoul'
Il er and tearing her shirt waist.

the costs Of prosecution, and also W,
II placed under probation.

Milk Probably Caused Tvphoid.

AS a result of Investigations made las
week by DR.. r. H. Parsons, health off
Ger, and an inspector from the stat,
board of health, relative to the cause O
typhoid fever in this section, one dairy
man on the Jacksonville road has beer
prohibited from distributing or selling
any more milk from his farm.
This action was not taken because any
infection had as yet been definitely dis
covered on the farm, but for the reason
that typhoid had broken out in a num-
Der of NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. families that
had been served with milk from this
dairy. These families were located at
Beach Haven Seaside Park and Laval
lette, and no other cases, it is reported,
except those receiving milk from this
dairy, shipped to them daily, have de-
veloped the disease in those commune
| ties.
Mrs. Raymond S. Clarke, who has
been spending the summer in her cot
tage at Lavallette; Mrs. Budd Harmon,
a servant in cottage at Seaside Park;
Mrs. Chapman's child, who had been at
Seaside Park and is now at Cape MAY;
John Boyer's child, who had been at
the seashore and is now at home in
Riverton, and Rev. N. P. Lewis son, at
Beach Haven, are suffering with the dis
ease, and all of them have been using
milk that came from the farm in ques-
ton. This furnished quite conclusive
proof that the dairy should not be per-
mitted to send out any more milk, and
the health officers therefore notified the
farmer 60 that effect The farm is still
under investiga ton.
There are other cases of the disease in
this town and vicinity that did not get
milk from this source, but most OF them
contracted the infection elsewhere and
were taken i'll either while away OF soon
after arriving home.
An analysis of Mount Holly's filtered
water supply, of a sample taken on Au-
gust 10Th, showed no pollution, which |
has been the uniform report of the !
monthly analyses for long time past. |
The other cases Of typhoid reported |
for several weeks past are as follows:
Mrs. l. Biddle Black and daughter, Gar
den street; Christina, daughter of Albert
Ridgway, King street; Ida, daughter of
Frank Pratt, Water street; Ruth, daugh
ter of Harold B. Hornor, near Mount
Holly.
Mrs. Clarke, Miss Pratt and Mrs. Har-
mon are receiving treatment at the Bur-
lington County Hospital. There are also
several other cases at the hospital-John
Linton, farmer on the Jacksonville
road; Viola Hamilton, of Florence, and
Sarah Rommel, of Red Lion.
Linton's three children are also suffer
ing with typhoid. They are at their
home on the Jacksonville road. There is
a possibility that the two Linton cases
may have received infection indirectly
from the dairy farm that has been quar-
antined. Clarence, son of John Strad-
ling, of Mount Holly, has developed
symptoms of the disease. He has been
on the Linton farm, picking up
potatoes.
Mrs. Harmon died at the hospital this
morning.

McCue played at great disadvantage
in the afternoon. He turned his ankle
in the morning game and was quite
lame, but he played in great shape, al
though suffering from pain, but he was
not able to run the bases with his usual
success. He got two hits and base on
balls.
When Lumberton was ahead one OF
Its supporters remarked, You fellows
are sore because you are getting beat,
But he discovered that the game is never
over until the ninth inning is played.
Foulks made circus catch Saturday
A foul fly was knocked to the fence neal
first base. Foulks ran for it, jumped on
bench, reached over the fence and
caught the ball with one hand.
Delanco will play here on Saturday.

Mount Holly kept up its good work
Saturday and shut out the White Hill
team. Forbes allowed the visitors but
three hits. There was some little anxiety
over this game as it was reported that
White Hill was coming down strength
ened for the occasion: They thought
Mount Holly had been winning long
enough, but they were not able to stop
the rush. Following is the score:

terday morning and had hard propo.
sltion with the team of that place. Nc
Cue, brother to Mount Holly's catcher,
was the pitcher in the first inning and it
was soon seen that he would not do as
Lumberton hit him at ease. Chance
was substituted and from that time on
the game was more of contest. At the
end of the eleventh inning the score was
a tie-three to three, and as the clubs
were to play in the afternoon it was de.
cided to call halt. Cooney, the will
lage blacksmith" was the umpire be-
hind the bat and he gave another ex-
hibition of his utter ignorance of the
rules or else he had determined to de-
liberately rule in favor Of the home club
whenever he got a chance, and he got
the opportunity very often. 1t is won
der that the Lumberton people. who GER
tainly want to see fair play, will tolerate
such man to ofdciate as umpire. All
men in that position are liable to make
mistakes but the decisions by Cooney
were SO palpable and his actions were of
such nature that it ought to make the
hackers Of Lumberton blush. In the
ninth inning when Lumberton scored
run Cocney jumped up and down with
glee and in another inning he showed
his feeling when fielder failed to catch
A ball. But with all of this in their
favor Lumberton failed to break Mount
Holly's winning streak. This is the
score:
