FOR THE SAKE OF THE PARTY

1t has been apparent for some time that Congressman
Scully would have to get a move on if he was to make any i'm
preston whatever at the Democratic primaries this fall for the
gubernatorial nomination. The formal announcement Of his
withdrawal yesterday was what was to be expected from him
In the light of recent events The field is now free for loyal
Democrats to unite on the one candidate who alone is able to
show the unspeakable Jim" Nugent what the rank and file
think of him.
When Nugent became a candidate there was but one thing
for the better element in the Democratic party to do and that
was to get together and administer to him such a licking that
he will not be able to show his head in party councils again. 1t
has been apparent from the beginning that Senator Edwards
had the inside track for the Democratic nomination. Mr.. Scully
put up a good fight at the start, but it has not made much head
way of late due, doubtless, to the congressmans duties at
Washington.
But Mr.. scully has a great many friends, especially in
Middlesex and Monmouth counties and were he to remain in
the race he would poll q great many votes, but not enough to
nominate him. The votes for Mr.. Scully would naturally be
taken from Senator Edwards and this would only tend to help
Nugent get the nomination.
When it became apparent that the one great task before
the Democrats of the state was to defeat Nugent the logical
thing for any man in MI. ScuHys position to do was to step
aside and leave the field clear for Senator Edwards. With the
choice narrowed down to Nugent and Edwards there is little
doubt as to the outcome. McDermit, who has filed a petition
for the nomination., can hardly be figured in the reckoning, but
what few votes he does get will be taken from Nugent in Es-
sex.
1t is pretty generally understood that Nugent's game is to
prevent Haig, the Democratic leader in Hudson, from climbing
But the Democratic party at large is not interested in the fight
between Nugent and Haig, the one object is to get rid OF Nu-
gent who has brought disgrace enough upon the party. Mr..
Scully has greatly aided in accomplishing this by getting out OF
hyface and throwing all of his strength to Nugent's strongest
opponent, Senator Edwards. ea4ae.u

AS IT SHOULD BE

That the chief of police is every bit on the job and has the
full confidence of the police committee of the Board of Alder
men is apparent from the statement made today by Alderman
Wilson, chairman of the police committee. We are very glad
to get this direct assurance from no less an authority than the
chairman himself. 1t will go a long way toward clearing up
the situation and will tend to restore confidence in the de-
partment.
Let us hope that the farce that has brought the police de-
partment into such a ridiculous position before the people will
end here and that the determination so forcibly expressed by
both Alderman Wilson and Mayor Dorsey that it is to be the
cleanest department in the state will be carried out. Chief
Burke has spent a lifetime on the police force of this city and
ought to know something about police affairs as well as being
pretty familiar with the city itself. Perth Amboys police
force may not be all that it should be, and doubtless everyone
can pick some flaws somewhere, but taking the police force as
a whole and comparing it with what other cities have, Perth
Amboy hasn't much to complain of. For a large industrial city
with a cosmopolitan population, crimes, disorders and lawless-
ness Of every sort are comparatively few. The city never has
had a fred light district; there is no particularly tough sec
ton of the city; in short, Perth Amboy is as clean, if not clean
or, morally, as any city of equal size in the country.
The present farce in connection with the police depart
ment started when the dispute arose over whether the chief,
the mayor or the chairman of the police committee of the
Board of Aldermen was the actual head of the department.
Opinions began to flow from the office of the city attorney at
that time and they have been increasing in volume ever since
reaching the climax during the past week when there has been
on an average of an opinion a day ever since the travesty at the
council meeting Monday night.
With the kind of cooperation that the police committee,
through its chairman now primises, conditions ought to greatly
Improve from now on. Perhaps one good purpose has been
served in attracting public attention to the department so that
every move from now on will be closely followed by those who
foot the bill.

ELIMINATING SMOKE NUISANCE

Here's hoping that the invention of Thomas F. Greve, of
this city, for arresting smoke and dust as they come from the
stacks, is al. that is claimed for it and that a practical demon
stration of the effectiveness of the idea will soon be put to
work in Perth Amboy. Imam industrial city a great many in
conveniences have to be commended with that would not be ex-
pected in a strictly residential district, but when there are
means of removing some of the nuisances that exist they should
be fat into operation. Mr.. Grieves invention ought to be given
the serIous consideration that it deserves.

They are having an epidemic OF
snakes in Kansas. But we are inciin-
ed to believe that the snakes are
merely the reptiles that have been
turned out of their comfortable
homes In the back DON of Kansas
drugstores. Under the old order Of
things every w~ell-regulated drugstore
kept a snake In the back room. A
druggist was permitted to sell whisky
to cure a snake bite. So you paid a
dime to get the snake to bite you,
and then you handed over two bits for
the snake bite cure. But nowadays
the supply of bite cure has petered
out and the poor snakes have been
turned out into the cold world to hunt
a living.

MADISON ROOSEVELT SMITH

The death of this we'll known, pop
ular and valuable citizen occurred at
his home in this city at $3.50 o'clock
Wednesday evening, June 18th, after
q lingering illness, of perniclous
anemia. Deceased was in his 69th
year. He was born in Bollinger coun-
ty, this State. In 1889 he was elected
to the State Senate, and afterwards
served one term in Congress-; served
as reporter of the st. Louis Court OF
appeals for four years, and was APP
pointed Minister to Hayti by Presi-
dent Wilson, which position he was
forced to resign, owing to ill health
He was a lawyer of splendid ability
and attainments.
Deceased is survived by his splen-
did wife and five children, three girls
and two boys. The daughters are
Alma, Bunny and Bah; the sons are
Taylor and Melbourne, the latter being
in England as special correspondent
for a New York paper. He is also
survived by two brothers and one sis
ter.
Funeral services will be held at 8
O'Clock this afternoon, at the home of
Taylor Smith, and interment will be

joins with many friends in extending
heartfelt condolences and best wishes
to the sorely afflicted family.

IF THEN, WHY NOT NOW?

Senator Lodge has been bowling
himself hoarse because the peace
treaty was not furnished members of
the United States Senate Immediately
after the draft was handed over to
the German plenipotentiaries.
We don't know whether he is right
in, this matter or not. For several
years our mind has been befuddled
BY "bunk" in some newspapers to the
effect that Lodge is the worlds great
living man.
He may be but we are willing to
hazard the guess that in addition to
all that is claimed for him by friends
and friendly political papers that HE
rs NOT CONSISTENT. ,s M.
When a request was made in the
Senate in 1906, for information con-
corning foreign negotiations that were
being made by the late former Presi-'
dent Roosevelt, Senator Lodge, in ops
posing the resolution, said:
eve have no possible right to break
suddenly into the middle Of a negotia
ton and demand from the President
what instructions he has given to his
representative. That part Of the
treaty making is no concern of ours"

GERMANY MAY COME IN

Reports from Paris indicate that
there has been a considerable change
Of opinion since the time when it was
said that Germany would not be ad-
mitted to the League of Nations until
after period of years, and sentiment
is veering toward an early admission
of the country. 1t is even said that
the Peace Council has decided upon
this course.
One reason for this position is, no
doubt, the fact that the new German
Government has maintained itself and
functioned as government for six
months. 1t has weathered the Bolshe-
vik storm in Prussia and Bavaria, it
has survived serious labor troubles, it
squelched the Rhine Republic in few
days, it is maintaining order, and, ap-
parently, the great majority of the
German people are content to live un-
der it's rule.
Assuming that the government is
permanent and that it is sincere in it's
expressed wish to maintain a repubil-
can form, then it may be said that
Germany should be admitted. Ad-
mission implies no weak forgiveness
and no compromise with justice. The
terms of the treaty will be enforced
with Germany in as they would be
with Germany out. The purpose of
admitting Germany would be the same
as the purpose for admitting any other
country-to make the league complete
and to avoid opposing leagues and al
liances.
