"RINGERs" FOR NOTED MEN
There Are a Number of Servitors in

There are any number of servitors
in this town who are "ringers" for
men who are constantly in the pub
hes eye, writes a New York corre-
spondents of the Pittsburgh Dis
patch. For instance, there is a
waiter at one of the Fifth avenue ho-
tells who is frequently mistaken for
Champ Clark, speaker of the house
of representatives. Across the street
from the hotel is a footman who is
employed by department store, who
resembles Chauncey NJ. Depew so
much that passers-by often stop and
take a second glance to convince
themselves that it is not the we'll
known peach" as the Bowery
termed the after-dinner speaker.
And on the McAlpin hotel roof a
waiter who is "ringer" for Oscar,
the well-known maitre d'hotel, was
mistaken for the "real' person.
'Why, good evening, Oscar" said a
visitor who was entertaining some
friends at dinner. 81 had no idea
you were here now" eyes, for sew
eral years, sir" was the reply. The
visitor then saw his mistake. "You
are a dead ringer for Oscar

waiter. "My name is Oscar, also

reached the prominence of the other
Oscar-yet."

wholesome and life-giving, so we
have purged our native land, not
with flame or sword or the steel

FIGHT ON FOR
SHERIFF'S JOB

that the people are entitled to know
who he is, and what he believes or
disbelieves, in the person of A. W.
England, of QuakertoWn, who an
nounces himself as an independent
candidate for the Republican nomi-
nation for sheriff.
He is expected to run especially
good in the city of Lambertville,
where there are lot of people who
have been waiting to get crack at
the regular Republican organization,
fand should he secure the nomina-
ton, he will run still better at the
polls in November, because it is
most refreshing to find man who
does not intend running upon some
body else's record, but prefers to
stand upon his own. Even if you
may not agree with all his views,
you can, at least, admire his indie
|
pendence.
Mr.. England's statement, given to
the public this week, follows:
To THE VOTERS OF HUNTERDoN
COUNTY:
AS an independent Republican
candidate for Sheriff of Hunterdon
County | wish to clearly state. my
platform to the voters of the county.
Not long ago three hundred Demo-
Gratis met in Pennington, called to-
gether by written invitation. This
was supposed to be for the purpose
of bringing the warning factional
voters together to harmonic on
county candidates. At the dictation
of the bosses the leaders met in Sc
cret and passed out boss-picked can
didates, just as if satisfied leaders,
who only wanted to line their own
nests would satisfy the voters who
would have to pay for the gasoline
and the upkeep of the machines for
the bosses joy rides.
Then a handful of Republican
bosses met in secret and passed out
their candidates for the Republican
voters to vote for.
Over in New York City there is a
large building where the public SER
vice corporations maintain an organ
ization that seeks to control the
politics of our nation for their per-
sonal gain. The railroads of the
country, in the same manner, seek
to control tbs laws of our country.
Both maintain high-priced lobbyists
in the halls of our legislatures, and
thev are the machines that the con-
sumers of gas and light and high
rates are up against. All these self
ish interests are interlocking, and
seek to control the peoples public
service and commerce commissions
both national and state, so that
when each member is put on the
commission his decisions are known
to the secret government before
they are given. That is the reason
that the different office-holders of
all PARTIES look alike while in office,
because, by the same process, the
political bosses try to pick candi-
dates who serve the interests they
represent instead of the voters.
In proof of this we do not have to
90 outside of Hunterdon County to
find Democrat and Republican office
holders working together, so that
their clothes seem stuffed the same
wav. and the voters do not know
whether they are coming or going.
The best blood of America is being
freely offered for liberty and de-
mocracy. To this end there must
| s-~---N~---~----~
be no kaisers, kings nor czars, ex-
cept the voters at the polls with
clear minds and free ballots. There
can be no turning back now. When
