snalIoox in Scattered Cases

Several cases of smallpox are to be found in and colse to Mesa. The dis ease is reported by Dr. J. E. Drane, city health officer, to be of mild type but nevertheless he is out with a warning for all people with any indication of the disease to promptly notify a physi elan and be thoroughly examined. Re gently a milkman had several cases in his family. and being unaware of the nature of the disease he distributed milk for several mornings to his custo- mers. Dr. Drane expects development from these exposures, though in his opinion there is no need for alarm as prompt quarantine measures are being taken in each instance.

 MENT ASSOCIATION

Middlesex and the Highways

We think that Middlesex county has not been given fair treat
ment by the State Highway Commission. The rebuke given this
county in the recent allotment of state moneys was entirely unjusti-
fed.
The commission does not seem to realize that Middlesex lies di
rectly in the middle of the state where it catches the heaviest traffic
paratively small, catches this, and even in Union this through traffic
is all concentrated on one road, the Lincoln Highway. Whereas, in
Middlesex the two main arteries of traffic separate at the Union
county line, the one continuing on through Woodbridge, Perth and
South Amboy to the coast resorts, while the other turns off to New
Brunswick and continues for the entire length of the county as far as
Cranbury.
Besides this. there are the bridges over the Rartan river, the one
here between the Amboys and the one at New Brunswick, the largest
of their find in the state that have to be maintained by local tax
payers.
Because of the enormous nonresident traffic, the upkeep of the
highways of this county is enormous; instead of being criticized
Mddlesex should receive an extra share of the state moneys in order
to keep in decent shape the roads SO freely used by the rest of the
state and by thousands who are not residents of the state at all.
As it is now, all the money that the taxpayers can possibly put up
is needed to keep up these main arteries of traffic so that the local
roads, roads used by the residents who pay the taxes, have to be
ignored and are fast going to pieces.
If the state would keep the roads that are really state highways
more than county roads, in shape, it would be comparatively easy for
Middlesex to give attention to other roads so that the residents of
the county could get some real benefit.
Middlesex county has bonded herself to the limit in order to-.
permanently improve roads that the state promised to take over, but
thus far the state has refused to do so. Then, as a result of this false
attitude by the state when the county finds itself struggling under a
burden almost nbearable the highway commission has nothing but
abuse for il.
their roads at their own expense, but have waited for the state to act,
are patted on the back by the state commission. If Middlesex had the
money that it spend paving state highways for the benefit of nom
residents, believing that the state would act in good faith, it, too,
could fix up It's many local roads and have a county road system to be
proud Of.
Let the State Highway Commission treat Middlesex county with
some degree of fairness and then if our roads are not as they should
be there will be some ground for the criticism offered.

Hungarian Loyalty

The loyalty shown by the Hungarians of this community is a matter
of great satisfaction to the people of Perth Amboy. The mass meet
ing and demonstration held Sunday could not be mistaken in its
meaning.
These men are loyal to the United States not only because OF
their love for their adopted country, but because they know that the
principles for which the United States is fighting in this great war
are the principles of liberty and justice, and these principles, they
realize, are as much for the benefit of their mother country and the
friends and relatives that they left behind there as they are for us.
Hungary has nothing to gain by a Teuton victory. By being
linked up with Austria, Hungary has had some degree of independ-
ence and self government; but with Austria practically annexed to
Germany, Hungary must become a vassal along with her partner or
she must fight German domination.
But that is Just what the democracies of the world are doing
now, and as they fight their own battles they are fighting Hungary
battles, too.
A German victory means a "miteluropa" completely under the
control of the kaiser and held down by Prussan miItarBm.
An allied victory means liberty for all races and freedom for
little nations as well as great. 1t means that different natonaites
shan have a right to work out their own destinies according to their
own standards as long as they do not bother any other race or nation.
To he sure, this policy is going to mean the liberation of the
glovaks, the Roumanans and the Poles in Hungary, but the true lib
erytloving Hungarian surely does not want to deny to other races
that freedom that he demands for himself.
That is not according to the spirit of democracy. 1t is contrary
to the principles for which we are fighting.
The slogan freedom for all, forever, % means just what it says
and while the Sloyak will have a right to enjoy 'life, liberty ad. the
pursuit of happiness so will the Hungarian. 1t means a little less
territory for Hungary, perhaps, but what is mere territory compared
TO liberty and justicef >
By ignoring those who would lead falsely and by sticking close to
Uncle Sam the Hungarians of this city are following a course that
not only safety and liberty for themselves here in America, but
It means the freedom and safety of those they have left behind in the
old country.
Perth Amboy has reason to feel proud of the showing made here
Sunday. 1t proves that the great mass of Hungarans in this city are
able to think for themselves.

Many Russian Rulers Victims of
AssaSsins.
The recently reported assassination
of the former Czar of Russia, Mich
olas Romanoff, recalls the fact that
this is the anniversary of the assas-
sination, in 1852, of Peter III, one of
the many Muscovite rulers who have
been murdered. Since the foundation
of the house of Romanoff as the ruiz
ing power of Russia, and even be-
fore that, many of the Russian rulers
have died with their boots on" and
the lives of all have been Swallowed
by the constant fear of sudden and
violent death.
OF the Cars of old Muscovy, who
ruled over Russia from 1852 to 1859,
not one escaped attacks on his life.
Ivan the Terrible, who reigned from
1888 to~1584, escaped the assassins
knife which he so richly deserved.
He perpetrated the most terrible
cruelties, and. in a fit of a muir

the throne. Feodor II was muir

Demetrius, the Impostor, a young
Polish monk who pretended t be the
murdered Prince Demetrius. He was
also put to death.
The mouse OF homanon attained the
throne in 1913, and under Peter I, the

Luke McInke Says.
Life is round of ups and downs. But

Many a man who hal good sight and

deaf to his conscience.
The man who sits down n clings
to his belief that all things come to

that when they do come he lets them
pass him and waits for them to come

trouble in keeping late hours.
A man would get mad IL you asked
him to make a wife of his cook. And

We honestly believe tina the aver

After some men have been married
for six months they get the idea that
their wives accepted them so they
could have a listener who couldn't get
