Democrats Active. Firm in Faith
Continued from page l

A meeting of Democrats was held
last Monday evening in the h~eadquart-
ers on North Broad Street. Some OF
the old war horses from Salem were
present and expressed their hrm al
legiance to the party.
Eugene A. McAdams, chairman
started the enthusiasm by stating the
Democrats had a good chance OF VIM
ming with young, active candidates.
Harry Burt Ware, was the leading
orator who said the party had a great
opportunity to serve the people as
they had done in the past. The high
cost of living and the move to increase
the cost of travel need men in state
authority, and especially on the Jun
ties Commission, who would repre-
sent the people. The problems OF
taxation need careful watching and he
believed a Democratic administration
IN Trenton could best solve it. The
eXtravapance of the present admins
tration of Gov. Edge was commented
upon He said there must be a limit
somewhere. With a live active Dem
ocrat the party should sweep the
county.
A former Republican leader was
present and said he had seen a new
iight and believed the Democratic
party was the party of the common
people. He had talked with Edward
j. Edwards and believed him to be
the man whom the people Of New
Jersey needed in the Governors char
at Trenton, because he was a solid,
sensible business man who had man
aged the financial administration While
he was State Comptroller.
President Wilson had done so much
for foreign people elsewhere that they
should look to him at home and help
his party to continue his good work.
Others recited the great legislation
done under Woodrow Wilson as Coy
ernor and President. No others will
compare with it in the history Of the
nation. Tariff reform, currency re-
form by creating the Federal Reserve
law, postal savings, parcel post, IN
come tax ard inheritance tax, eX.
tension Of rural deliveries, unrestricted
currency for business expansion, re-
duction of interest rates in the South
and West never before known, dl-
vorce of the L. S. Treasury from Wall
Streets control, financing and carry
ing on of a great world val with the
least graft of any, maintaining all the
money at q uniform level and at a low
rate of interest. extension of Amerl-
can Democracy to the old world, a
world wide peace treaty and League
of Nations to maintain peace among
all mankind are something for all to
think about ard wonder why they are
not Woodrow Wilson Democrats, will

master.
All present believed in an active
campaign next fall.

Our All-Stars took another fall out
af Repauno last Saturday afternoon,
2 to >. Grant started the game for
our bunch and after allowing the enc
INV two runs in the first inning tight
eaed up and held them ~scoreless until
the fifth inning when he retired on ac-
count of a sore arm and allowed
Goosetree to finish the game. Goose
came through and held the opposition
sccreIess for the rest Of the afternoon.
The main feature of the game was the
batting of Goslin, who was responsible
for five Of the eve runs, batting the
ball to all corners of the lot.
Earl Nack's Merchant Ship team
visited us Wednesday afternoon and
took a game away from US after a
hard battle. The fans were greatly
surprised to see Goosetree mount the
pitching peak but were more than
pleased with the game Goose twirled.
Had things broken better for him, he
might have gotten away with a 1 to 0
decision over "Mule'' Watson, recent
ay released by the Philadelphia Ma
tional League Club, but there's no use
coming across with a hard luck story
over a game we lost by a 2 to l score.
The Shipbuilders We're out there play
inc all the time and making the best
thev could out of the few hits they
were able to collect from our newly
discovered pitcher and deserved to
win. Our lone run was scored as a
result of Lugar's double to left, Nay
ler's out at first and Earl Mack's er-
ror on a peg to first in an attempt to
head off Goosetree.
The features of the game were the
all-round playing of Lugar, the field
ing Of Hoffman and the pitching Of
Watson.

zeal Yesterday afternoon on the Dye
Works Athletic field, Mechanical win

which there was no kicking among the
PLAYERS, although 4 number in the
grand stand were very unappreciatlve
in their applause and made bitter re-
marks to the players
Clouser took the batting lead in the
