Mayor White and Health Officer Wyler
Take Action in Compliance With
Orders From State Board, as
Precautionary Measure.

At three o'clock Tuesday afternoon,
in compliance with orders from the
State Board, Dr. Max Wyler, health
officer of the Fort Lee Board, issued
the following order:
"In order to prevent further spread
of influenza, for the duration of this
epidemic, all churches, schools, the
aters, moving picture theaters, dance
halls, saloons, lodges, soda fountains
and all other places where people
congregate must be closed until fur
ther notice."
In compliance with this order the
regular communication of Wakefield
Lodge No. 211, f. and A. NJ, was called
off on Tuesday evening by the master.
Supervising Principal Chase closed
the public schools of the borough, and
on Wednesday morning none of the
public places in the borough opened
their doors.
Several deaths have been reported
in the borough as result of the epi-
demic, and Fort Lee physicians report
a large number of cases.-Fort Lee

N. ]. DEMOCRATS
IN HARD CAMPAIGN
FOR U. s. SENATOR

Trenton, Oct. 16.-PreparatiOns have
just been completed at the Demo-
cratic state headquarters here for a
short and sharp fall campaign which
will be put into effect at the cOnclu-
sion of the Liberty Loan drive. 1t
was the feeling of State Chairman Nc
Donald and his associates that nothing
should be done in a political way to
interfere with bond sales. Next week
an active canvass will be made, and if
the state health authorities lift the
ban on outdoor gatherings vigOr-
Gus speechmaking campaign will be
launched
George NJ La Monte, candidate for
the long term nomination for the
United States senate, has received
word from Charles O'Connor Hennessy
and Alexander Simpson, his erstwhile
opponents for the long term nOmina-
ton, that they will take the stump
with him, and Mr.. La Monte has ac-
cordingly arranged that they tour the
state together.

reports from the various counties of
the state show that there is strong
Democratic trend among the voters.
In the counties in which the cent
fare was put into effect this week Mr..
Mcdonald finds that there is deep re-
sentiment against Governor Edge for
his refusal, at the request of George l..
Record and some of the state news
papers, to call a special session of the
legislature for the purpose of passing
remedial legislation that would have
prevented the Public Utility Commits
sion from overriding existing car fare
contracts and ordering increased fares.
This resentment against Governor
Edge, Mr.. Mcdonald finds, is especial
ly marked in Hudson, Essex and Pas
sale counties, where the Public Service
Company's lines operate, and in Mer-
Ger county, where strip tickets at the
rate of six for quarter have been
supplanted by a straight 6 cent fare
over the lines of the Trenton and
Mercer County Traction Corporation.

ST. JOHNS LYCEUM.

A regular meeting was held at the
Lyceum on Monday evening.
1t was decided to postpone the dance
that was to be given on Friday eve
ming, October IL, until an indefinite
period on account of the prevailing
epidemic and in that way comply with
the government orders and help to put
a stop to the further spread of the dis
ease.
All tickets now held by persons are
good and should be held for the later
date, which will be announced in The
Palisadian.
The members have not received any
notice to take this action, but consider
it patriotic duty to do so.
No meeting shall be held by the club
until further date for the same rea-
sons as the postponement of the dance.

BIG BOND RALLY
At CRANTWOOD IN
THE HIGH SCHOOL

There was great Liberty bond rally
Thursday night at the Cliffside High
School in Grantwood. There was a
large crowd out, and the enthusiasm
was intense. Many speeches were
made, and the sum subscribed was $14,-
600. This brought the grand total up
to over $4,000, and the work will go
on to the final minute. The local work
ers have done great deed in all the
circumstances.

The Workingman

Whoever else may evade the payment OF his
taxes, the workingman must pay every cent OF
his. He pays them when he buys groceries or
meat or shoes or clothing, or when he pays his
rent.
Ordinarily he does not pay his taxes direct,
and so he does not see in exact figures just how
much the saloon is actually costing him-but ne
can make up his mind that for the most part he
is taking care of the wreckage of the saloon.
How long will the workingman be the goat"
of the liquor business?
The interests of the saloon are always opposed
to the interests of the workingman.

does more harm than good-Help Stop 1t!

THE WORKINGMAN
PAYS THE PRICE!

The liquor men are telling us that if saloons
are abolished the city and the county will lose
all the money now being paid by the liquor bust
ness in the form of taxes.
If it could be said that the liquor business
resulted only in good, first to those who are
engaged in it, and second to those who are con
sumers of liquor, the money received through the
taxation of the liquor business might be regarded
as a blessing to the community
But we are compelled to pay out in return
many times more than the taxes received, because
of the evils which follow the consumption of
Intoxicating liquor.
Liquor is responsible for 10 per cent. of the
divorces, Is per cent. of the poverty, rs per cent
of the insanity, 81 per cent. of the paupersm, As
per cent. of the child desertion, and SO per cent
of the crime in this country. And this is very
conservative statement.
If you were to add the expense of maintaining
the police departments, the cost of penitentiares
and asylums of various kinds that the state is
compelled to support to take care of the wreck
age of the liquor business, the comparatively
small amount obtained from the liquor tax would
seem very slight indeed.
Who makes up the most of this extra amount
for which the liquor men do not pay through their
taxes?

Does This Mean You?

We have received through the cour-
tesy of a friend letter from an officer
in the Medical Corps who is regimental
surgeon in camp that happens to be
located in the South We ask our read
ers to read it carefully and make sure
before they answer just how far its criti-
cisms apply to themselves and their sew
eral communities:
This place has now awakened to the
fact that their prosperity is at its flood
if they only stick the soldiers. SO prices
for everything are going up. 1t is only
necessary to wear the uniform to be
waited on negligently and charged exor-
bitantly. 1t should not be so, but it is.
The churches feed the men on Sunday
and the people rob the men through the
week. There should be government
commission to protect the men from this
greedy American avarice, as an outgrowth
of an opportunity this unfortunate war
has given them. The lightning must
strike this country as whole. We need
a revolution-a rebellion against the sor-
did and Indifferent
A rebellion against the sordid and the
Indifferent! 1t is easy enough to sit by
if your own community does not happen
to contain a cantonment and be Mortified
at such active, petty profteering. You
may not be actively sordid But how
about the accusation of indifference? Are
you pulling your full weight in the great
national test now on?
We know there is another side to the
picture. Other communities, longer in
the field of service, have awakened to
their responsibilities and done splendid
service in crushing local profiteers, in
keeping open house for visiting soldiers
But how much more remains to be done.
A new spirit must enter into the souls
of most Americans before we can Justify
our lives to those miles of men who are
giving their all.

spirit Of the Prussian masses. They or

which is anti-national, ti-patriotic and

The War Finance Bill-and the
Alternative

With but three dissenting votes, two
that, the "War Imitation Corporation"
bill has passed the Senate. SO far as
we have seen, there was not one Repub-
lican Senator to protest against the
colossal power over the currency and
finances of the country which this bill
confers on board of four unnamed men.
Senator Penrose, ranking member of
the Finance Committee, made no protest
Mr.. Henry Cabot Lodge, from the
rock-ribbed sound money State of Mas
sachusetts, made none.
Mr.. Reed Smoot, who has taken a
prominent part in the discussions, had
little or nothing to say of this phase of
the bill.
The Tribune believes that this is
needless and most dangerous measure.
Mr. Thomas W. Lamont and others,
in replying to The Tribune's criticisms,
have said in substance that though the
measure may be regrettable, yet what
have we to offer in it's stead? There
seem to US at least two very safe and
obvious alternatives.
The chief avowed object Of the bill is
to give aid to the great number of
public service corporations whose earn
ings and financial position have been
seriously impaired by the sudden rise in
coal, steel and other commodities, the
great general increase in wages and the
consequent loss in earnings, due to the
fact that these companies are chiefly
under the control of public service com
missions and arc not permitted to raise
the price Of the commodities they have to
sell-gas, or car service, or electric light
and power, and the like.
We believe, first Of all, there should be
q considerable increase in freight rates.
If the average Of all commodities goes
up 80 or 30 per cent, as it has, and
wages corrcspondngly, in a little over
two years, you cannot maintain freight
rates at the old level 1t would simply
wreck our transportation system, and
this just at a time when we have need
for it's functloning at the highest pitch
of efficiency and capacity
AS war measure, both to raise
