Request Early Trial.
Mr. O'DeH who is a former state
treasurer. requested an early trial
and issued a statement denying
charges that ne had anything TO do
with the Newberry campaign. 1t is
understood that O'Deli was charged
with urging James ". Helme, form
er dairy and food commissioner, to
enter the primary race against Henry
Ford presumably for the purpose
of splitting the democratic ranks. In
his statement O'DeIl declares he did
suggest that Helme seek the nomin-
alton. but without intention of aid
ing the Newberry campaign. Helme
has also declared in a statement that
his candidacy was not for the pur-
pose of aiding Newberry but 10 give
the people a choice Of candidates as

THE BIG STRIKE.

To the man who takes a liberal view
of matters of public interest, the re-
cent strike in New York does not ap-
peal as an action worthy of a great
deal of praise to those who instigated
it. Both parties to the affair aimed at
the heart of New York, the most pa
tient and long-suffering city in the
world. The brotherhood, composing the
employees who went on strike, were
pledged not to strike before arbitrat-
ing. The railway people were pledged
to serve the public at all hazards to the
best of their abilities. What happened
was that the brotherhood struck, and
the railway management laid down on
the job. At least some semblance of
running trains might have been tried.
But not an effort. Not motion, But
the public took its medicine like it al
ways does And more's the pity of it
that such things can happen in civil
lied land

Also Job H. Lippincott of Essex is MI
Edwards manager for that county, as

the success of BlakeSlee and Lippin-

looks bad, very bad, and, no matter
how strong denial is made of collu-
sion, the thing is liable to do Senator
Edwards lot of harm. He has been
making fine impression, and his
chances looked genuinely good in the
face of the great opposition that has
developed in connection with the State

publicans The public cannot be easily
fooled when it places its estimate upon
the facts of an embryotic scandal like
