How to Keep the Streets Tidy

The following in the Philade lphia H.
quirer may be applied to Penns Grove:
1t may he news to Il great many per-
sOns in this city that there is a new law
which applies directly to them and holds
them responsible for the tidiness of the
streets. 1t is found in the act of June
II, 1915, creating a housing and SANTA
ton bureau. A squad OF inspectors sent
by Chief Council, of the Highway Bn-
reau, is e~ndeavoring to instruct citizens
in their dntles, taking a section of the
city at a time.
1t would be well for every householder
to enter heartily into the requirements OF
the act. Ii he is a good and law-ahiding
citizen, with any idpa of cleanliness and
tidlness, he will do this willingly. If he
is not. it will still be to his interest to
obey the law, for it is mandatory. The
word ''shalr' is used, and among the
things that the householder '~'sl,all' do
is to put all garbage in unleakable cans,
put ashes in receptacles OF an approved
kind aud so safeguard all drv waste that
it cannot be picked up by the winds and
carried in every direction, Waste must
not be swept into the streets. And waste
includes papers and rags and the like,
1t is the carelessness in handling scraps
OF paper that is accountable for much OF
the untidy condition of streets. FIRE.
quently they are thrown in with the
ashes to become a plaything of every
breeze that blows. Sometimes they ale
put out for the collector in uncovered
boxes-and the collector collects only
what is lett after the breazes have work
ed their will for several hours. In the
transfer from box to wagon there is a
further dispersal and more clutteIing up
OF the streets.
Now there is a law on this subi"ct.
Loose papers must be tied into bundles.
The inspectors should impress that fact
upon every householder. Tie the paptr,
and they cannot take wings and fly every
which way. Tie them, and streets that
now become scrap-of-paper ridden upon
every collection day will no longer be-
come q curse to % neighborhood other
wise neat and pleasing TO the eye.
The time will come when unsightly
cans and boxes will no longer fringe the
sidewalks, but until that hour strikes,
the best that can he done is to prevent
the leakage of garbage leceptacles, cover
ash receivers aud so tightly bind
papers together that they cannot litter a
highway.
The inspectors have Il duty to perform
in making these things plain, and the
householder has a duty to perform in
obeying the law. 1t is easier to obey
them than to face a magistrate and be
fined. -Philadelphia Inquirer.

The Sword And The Pen

Candidate Hughes says that President
Wilson's foreign policy has been weak.
1t is generally heralded abroad that Mr.,
Hughes was nominated by the Republi-
cans at the behest OF the Commandment
can Alliance, ~ organization of alleged
Americans who consider that Mr.. Will
sons foreign policy has been too strong.
There ls an IncOngrnity here that Mr..
Roosevelt should explain Elk.
President Wilson's battles have been
with the pen, backed by the moral and
physical force of the nation. The fact
that he humbled the Kaiser to forbid the
sinking OF merchant ships by submarines
without force OF iron and blood and
brought OH the enmity of the German
Americans who purpose on furnishing
him at the ballot box by voting for
Charles K. Hughes, has proven that the
pen III President Wilson's hands is
mightier than the sword
The fact that Huerta, the actor, il not
the lnstigatoT, but surely the beneficiary
OF the murder of President Madero, after
being protected by President Taft. walk
ed the plank at President Wilson's word,
also proves that the pen in Mexican
diplomacy WAS mightier than the sword,
Not only the taxpayers, but all who
do not care to offer their lives nor the
lives OF their relatives and friends as a
sacrifice Tor the settlement of interna-
tional questions, should he thankful that
these United States has a President who
can handle Il pen with the moral force
behind it that lumbles kings and usurp-
ing rnlers whose positions are kept by
cannon balls and bayonets.
President Wilson's pen is mightier
than a sword, because the greatness of
his mind and moral force is hey 0nd the
memtal comprehension Of those who can
see nothing but dollars in diplomacy.

teal occasion, however, and ex-senator
Frelinghuysen has invited all the candi-
dates for Governor and United States
Senator. The list of guests includes Gov
ernor Fielder, Ex-Governor Stokes, Frank
lin Murphy, of Newark; Senators Aus
ten Colgate, of Newark and Walter E.
Edge, of Atlantic City George L. Record
of Jersey City and many others. More
than 1000 attended this field day at the
Frelinghuysen home last year.
Friends of Senator Edge are taking ex-
ception to the way the Colgate campaign
managers are trying to make it appear
that Senator Colgate's campaign for the
Gubernatorial nomination suffered because
of his being an officer for the National
Guard when the Jersey troops were call
ed out. Edge men at the State House
yesterday claimed that Colgate managers
were overworking this argument.
The facts are, it was was pointed out,
that Col. Colgate did go to Sea Girt as
an officer of the Guard, but went no fur
ther.. Col. Edge, who is connected with
the ordnance department, the moment
mobilization orders were received, from
Washington, te~legraphed Adjutant Cen
eral Sadler Offering his services in any
capacity. Neither Col. Colgate nor Col.
Edge enlisted for service in Mexico. At
ter the troops were sent from Sea Girt
to the Mexican border, which was about
one week after they were called out, Col.
colgate was relieved and meantime Col.
Edges services were not needed.
The lively contests in the Republican
ranks for the nomination for Governor
and United States Senator has led Lin
ton Satterthwait, a we'll known Repub-
hcan lawyer of Trenton, to suggest that
the system of preferential voting be an
pied to the selection of these high Of
Ulcers. He thinks that hot primary
nights are not good for a party and saws
they would be entirely eliminated by the
preferential voting. He may nave a bill
drafted for introduction into the Legis-
lature next winter. If such a system
were IN use the primary election would
be abolished, candidates would all be
nominated by petition and at the cleo
