THE CANDIDATE OF BOSSES
CANNOT BE THE CHOICE
OF VOTERS

Mr.. Richie accepted the nomina-
ton rendered him by the political
bosses and shackled himself to the
machine and the boss within the ma
chine. Upon the Democratic throne,
exalted high above all, is Senator
John Walter Smith. Behind him lies
all the potential machinery of state
control The living exponent of that
machinery in action is Governor Har-
rington. The Governor is an estim-
able gentleman and no one would seek
to asperse his devotion to the state.
But Governor Harrington is an out
and-out devotee of the old practice
of politice that will not allow the state
to advance further than the cable
length of boss control. There would
be no virtue in displacing Governor
Harrington and substituting someone
who has the same attachments and
commitments and control. Nor does
this control need to be in the form of
thug rule. Senator Smith is a man of
high excellence and of public service.
There is nothing in the mere person
atty of the Democratic senator to be
taken into account. 1t is the fact
that the state is under and has long,
been under the rule of system that
at the top is least obvious objec-
tionable but that as it goes down the
line becomes offensive. No one for
a moment would think of voting for
THE" Kelly for an important public
office. Then why vote for "The"
Kelly's man? Mr.. Mahon, the other

THURSDAY, OCTOBER Q. 1919.
Five Mile Beach weekly journal., 1919-01-03

discussing the matter before taking the
vote, Mr.. Hendee asked that Harry
Weir, the engineer, be given o leave of
absence for six months longer, without
pay. Up 10 this time, Mr.. Weir has
been receiving his pay, as usual. at the
rate Of $25 per month or at $500 per an
mum; and v per cent. additional on
al contracts or city work. In publish
ing the annual salary list some time
ago, the engineers annual income was
not given us by the commissioners.
Prior to January 1st, 1918, the city en-
gIneer received five per cent. on all the
big and little contracts.
On motion Of MI. Ryan, seconded by
Mr.. Hendee, a resolution was passed fix.
ing the salaries Of the following clerks
at $50 each per month, to take effect
January 1st, 1919: Martha Geisenber-
ger, Mary Sheppard and Dorothy
Finn. John Harris, of Camden, at
torney for the Capitol Decorating Co.,
of Philadelphia, now appeared befor6
the commissioners and presented q bill
of $40 against the city, for the work OF
decorating city hall in 1916 at the time
the Red Mems national convention
was held here. Payment was refused
on the ground that the city authorities
had not requested nor granted permis-
sion to the Capitol Decorating Co. to
do the work for which pay Is deman-
ded. Nick Holmes, the city attendant
at first ward fire house came before the
commissioners next, as did also Oak
ford Cobb, the city attendant at third
ward fire house, to protest against the
charges made in the letter OF Chosen
Freebooter John w. Young In his let
ter to the commissioners and which
was read two weeks ago. Mr.. Holmes
said that if he could make as much
money as MI. Young had figured out
for the repair of automobiles at fire
houses, that he (Holmes) would resign
bis position. Both Holmes and Cobb
denied ever sending out any bills on
regular printed bill heads as alleged in
Mr.. Young's letter. Mr.. Cobb said he
never made a charge. If any one cared
to give him any money for work done
that was a different matter. Mr..
Holmes told of a certain physician
thrusting a SIS bill into his coat pocket.
"Of course" he remarked, "when the
doctor in question wouldn't take it
back, I didn't throw the bill away. L
just kept it." The mayor stated that
he had investigated the com plants
made about repair work claimed to be
done in the city fire houses, and has
arrived at the conclusion that the
amount of work said 10 be done there
is grossly exaggerated. The mayor
added that it looks to him as If some
persons sdream about it," and then
tell their dreams for realities. Mr..
Ryan and the mayor both said they
did not see much wrong about the

The patriotic public meeting an
nounced for Friday night, December
OF, 1918, in the auditorium Of the Wild
wood High school building, was held
on the date mentioned and resulted In
the appointment of six committees to
plan and to carry out the purposes for
which the meeting was called.
S~enator-elect William H: Bright, of
Wild wood, Cape May county's new
member Of the State Senate, acted as
chairman Of the meeting. Ways and
means Of providing for a suitable re-
ception to our soldier boys, upon their
return from the %"far-fung" battle-fields
of France, and Of effecting a permanent
testimonial or memorial to them In
some concrete form, had been under
consideration for a long time. At two
regular monthly meetings OF the Wild
wood Board Of Trade the subject was
preached and the importance of begin
ming such a movement early, strongly
EN- phasized, but the Board OF Trade
failed to act in the matter. The initial
demonstration, therefore, last Friday
night, was timely and appropriate.
The guest of honor was State Senator
Harold B. Wells, of Bordentown, Bur
lington county, who came to Wild
wood by special request Of his new col
league In the State Senate, William H..
Bright, who will begin his term of
office on January Il, 1919, at which
time Senator Wells will enter upon
bis second term. Senator Wells is con-
sidered one of the ablest debators on
the floor of the New Jersey Senate, and
is a candidate for the presidency of that
body at the coming session of the State
legislature. His opponent for this
prominent position is Senator William
B. Mackay, Of Bergen county.
In referring to the deadlock existing
among the Republican Senators of the
State, regarding this candidacy, Sena-
tor Wells humorously characterized
the nature Of the situation by remark
ing: "We are seven"-thus uniquely
adapting the title of Wordsworth's
tender poem to describe the tenacity
with which his little group Of faithful
adherents is holding out for his nomi-
nation. UP to and including Monday
last, December Both, over forty ballots
had been taken in Republican caucu-
SEES, resulting finally In a tie-seven for
Wells and seven for Mackay.
Unusual importance attaches to the
presidency Of the state senate for the
seseion OF 1919, for the reason that the
successful candidate will become auto
matically acting governor of the state.
when the latter Office becomes vacant
by the resignation Of Governor Edge
which is looked for about March 4th,
of this year, at which tune it Is expec-
ted that the present Governor, Hon.
Walter e. Edge will take his seat in
be United States Senate, to which he
vas recently elected.
So the Wells slogan, may, we are
en-" firmly and constantly main
fd, assumes great significance at
period in the states history. The
knt composition of the New Jersey
mate is fourteen Republicans and six
emocrats. Atlantic county lie tempo

BITTER THAN CALO|IEL
Thousands Have Discovered Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets ars
 a Harmless Substitute.

Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets-t;ae s;.bsti. ute for calolnel -- are mild but sure laxative, and their effect CT the liver is almost instantaneous. They are the result of Dr. Edwards determination not to treat liver and bowel complaints with calomel. His efforts to harish 1t brought out these little olive-colored tablets.
 These pleasant little tablets do the good that caIornei does, but have no bad after effects. They don's iniure the teeth ike strong liquids or calor2el. They take hold of the trouble and quickly correct 1t. Why cure the liver st the expense of the teeth? Calornel sometimes plays havoc with the gums. So do strong liquids. Itis best not to take calonel but to let Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets take it's place.
 Most headaches, stdullness" and that lazy feeling come from constipation an1 disordered liver. Take Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets when you feel '1oggy' and heavy" Note how they "clear" clouded brain and how they ''perk up" the spirits. 1oc and 25c a box. An druggists

CROSS BEARING IS TOPIC
 FOR LENTEN SERMON

Learn to bear your cross as Christ
 bore his. It is the will of God said
 Rev. Father Benjamin of St. Gabriers
 monastery of Boston Sunday evening
 at St. Patrick's church in the last of
 the Sunday evening Lenten services. Rev. Fr. Benjamin said in part: Any
 one wishing to journey first considers the place or destination, then the best way to get there. and lastly the means Of getting there. We may have money
 but if we do not take the right road we never gain our destination. So it is in life, Our destination is heaven and we ask ourselves how will we get there. Christ showed us the way; he is our guide and pilot.
 Christ said to his Heavenly Father. l have done thy will. After the scoufg- l ing by the Jews and Romans, his bear 1 ing of the cross upon which he was cruclfied, he suffered the utmost dis grace and humiliation but after it all l he said, Gods will be done Not every 1 one enters the kingdom of heaven, but ] he who does enters by the will of God. As Christ carried his cross, you also
 must bear yours. We must learn what 1 it means to carry the cross and Christ i by his example shows us the way.
 ! It does not mean that you must bear
 a cross of wood through the streets of your city, but you must do the will of 1 God, and the will of God is the com mandments. Suppress the oath in anger, forgive your enemies. deny
 yourself unlawful pleasure. get down
 on your knees and confess your sins i this is what it means to carry the 1 cross. This is the way, and the only ! way. You have your worries, in the family, in business, in your profession you suffer many trials and tribulations but remember they are the will of Goo and your crosses that you must bear Good and evil, life and death. riches and poverty, all come from God. Al example is the experience of Job. Jot
 was rich. he owned vast estates ant suddenly he lost all and suffered grea
 humiliations. Did he complain? No
 he said, The Lord hath given and tht Lord hath taken away. Blest be tht !, name of the Lord.
 ) Always bear in mind the Savior ana the cross. If you suffer fatigue ant . worry, think of Christ. In him yol , will find peace. St. Augustine sait
 that the three who died upon the eros at Calvary were, first. Christ, second l the good thief, and, third, the bat
 thief. Christ bore his cross with pa
 tienee for our salvation. The goo
 thief bore his in penitence, but tn . third bore his with despair and CUTS ing, and he was doomed to hell. Tn three crosses are symbolic of mankind Christ represents the innocent, tn good thief the repentant and the ba thier represents the unrepentant an the hardened sinner. Ask yourselve what the way for you will be, salva : tiOn or condemna tion.
