e A sign of the somewhat waning awe OF
Theodore Roosevelt is given by the heck
ling which was accorded the former pres
ident as he made a speech while passing
through Kentucky. No sooner had
Roosevelt opened his mouth to favor the
candidacy of Charles f. Hughes than the
hecklers began with shouts of "Wilson.
Woodrow Wilson" A few years ago few
men would have had the hardihood to
arouse Roosevelt's ire or to break the
spell which his presence cast, even
though they may have been his political
opponents. Now they dare it and some
times get away with it. Yet Roosevelt
is no better or no worse man than he
was when president of the United States;
he simply is reduced from super man
in the minds of practically all the people
of the nation.

The suit brought by Secretary of State
Bailey and State Treasurer Scott, as
state creamery commissioners, against a
Boston milk concern on the ground that
the company did not live up to the stip-
ulations of the bond given at the time of
the company's entry into Vermont bus
mess will no doubt prove of great i'm
portance in determining just what meas
ure of control the state has over the
somewhat unsatisfactory conditions sur
rounding the shipment of Vermont milk
to outside concerns. The state of Yer
mont has no desire to ride" the outside
concerns but wishes merely to protect
the interests of the people of Vermont.

ENDEAVORING TO SAVE
ATLANTIC co. OYSTERMEN.

bill, revolutionizing the oyster laws
of the State, will affect the leasing
privileges in Atlantic County, Burris

er, had an amendment drawn which
will make it doubly sure that Allan
tic County is not injured. Senator
Edge will offer this amendment to the
bill when it comes up in the Senate.

Every qualified voter in this COM

should know ALL candidates thor
oughly before deciding for whom he
will vote. Every candidate for public
office has certain traits of character
which should receive the spotlight of
scrutiny before he receives even a sin

that he is honest, that he is intelli-
gent, that he is energetic and progress
sive, that he is competent to fill the
position he seeks, and this knowledge
can only be acquired by a careful
study of the man and his deeds. The

WHAT A PROPRIETOR OF A
MOVING PICTURE THEATRE
WRITES TO THE
LABOR UNION ADVOCATE,

Your paper came to hand to-day
and l read it with great satisfaction
where the members of the Motion
Picture Operators Union were get
ting after the Scab Operators who
were employed at my Theatre in
Pleasantville. Now, dear friends, as
l lease my theatre to different par
ties, l have had no control owe who
they did employ, but | give you my
word the next lessee of my theatre
will have inserted in his lease of
Hubin's Theatre, Pleasantville, that
he must employ only a Union Opera
tor. l have invested over $4,000 in
my Pleasantville Theatre, have in
stalled all the latest appliances for
the safety of my patrons, have an
Asbestos Booth, costing me over 5000,
fire hoses, safety bolts, Extinguish-
ers, ETC., but with all these the diff
lferent lessees have allowed operators
or would-be ones, to smoke in the
| Picture Booth, but under the lease |
was powerless to offer any objection,
but l did request the various lessees
of my theatre to employ Union OPP
orators, but they did otherwise, and
| am more than pleased to see the
Union get after these Cigarette
Dopes and would-be operators. What
is the use of building fire-proof the
aires and equipping your Theatre
with all kinds of Safety appliances
when these dopes come along and
break every rule laid down for the
protection of lives and property? l
will cheerfully say my Theatre is
open at any time for members of the
Motion Picture Operators to inspect
every minute detail in connection
with it, and l am glad to see their
Union take this step to rid Atlantic
City and Pleasantville of these dope
and cigarette fiends, and see that the
different Moving Picture Managers
will get Responsible Operators in,
their employ, and I know that the
Union will see that they do their
work or out they will go. Consider
me at all times a supporter of the
Union and you a count on me do
ing all I can to uphold the high
standard of the different Operators
who are members of Motion Picture
Operators Local, No. 80, of Allan
tic City, N. ]. Believe me,

Owner of Hubin's New Theatre,

GOOD WORK OF FIREMEN
AT EARLY MORNING BLAZE
Greatly Handicapped at First by
Darkness of Streets.

Prompt service on the part of the
local fire department prevented the
total destruction of the home of Ed
ward Weller at Main street and Bay
view avenue, around 1890 o'clock
Sunday morning.
Isaac Lee, an uncle of Mr.. Weller
living with him, first detected the fire
from the smell of smoke as it rose to
the second floor where he and Mrs.
Weller and their three children occu-
pied rooms, and running in the direc-
ton of the kitchen and finding it en-
veloped in flames, he gave the family
the alarm. Mrs. Weller, who was ill,
was removed to a neighbours, and two
of the children were rescued from
their bed directly over the kitchen
without much trouble. In reaching
the third child, however, Mr.. Weller,
choking from his trips through the
smoke, became exhausted and about
reached the door of the room when
the timely arrival of neighbors, who
assisted him and the little child out,
saved the child and himself from the
smoke and flames.
Hose streams were played On the
rear of the building which was en-
tirely in flames and a line vas taken
into the top floor of the house and
played on the interior, subduing the
flames within fifteen minutes after
the water was directed on the fire.
Citizens are loud in their praise of the
fremen who, handicapped as they
were in the darkness for the first fif-
teen minutes, Systematically fed wat
err into the heart of the flames. The
darkness was the result of the mid
night turning off of lights in the city,
and while the electric light company
responded cou~rteously in starting
their dynamos and furnishing lights
in the street, the darkness in the early
part of the fire greatly Handicapped
the connecting of hose and caused the
driver of the large automobile appa-
ratus to collide with the fire hydrant
at Wright street and Main street in
his efforts to find it in the dark. 1t
damaged the apparatus to such an ex-
tent that it could not be used in pump
ing the water.
Origin of the fire was an overheated
stove, and the damage is thought to
be about $500.
