to cram q certain candidate down the
threats of the people whether they
want him or not.
The boomers Of General Wood who
are so active in this state should con-
fine their efforts to seeing that the
generals name Is placed on the pri-
mary ballot and then do all In their
power to persuade the voters to vote
for him as their preference, thus In
.structing the delegates. This would be
legitimate campaigning and no doubt
would meet with much favor. But to
attempt to sew up the delegates be-
fore they are even elected is an at
tempt at dictation that the people are
likely to resent. The closer the politi-
cal leaders can get to the people the
better. 1t should always be kept in
mind that the delegates represent tho
people as a whole. not any particular
club or faction. Any instructions that
the delegates receive should come
from the people themselves and not
from the partisans of any particular
candidate,

A WINDY DAY

dure TO the plains: they r the

the air with gladness throbs, and

The wild wind pushed me through
a fence, 1t ragged as though it had
no sense. it dumped me In a

ONE THING OR THE OTHER.

Regarding the awful mixup hat is

save an hour daylight on Monday the
New York Evening Telegram ex-
presses the sentiment SO often ex-
pressed by the EVENING NEWS. as
follows:
1.-THE impending muddle over day
light saving is alarming to contem-
plate.
LAS matters stand. most large cities,
including New York. win be on a day
light saving basis mex Sunday at two
A. NJ. Also several States have passed
daylight saving measures or will do
SO. Naturally the differences In time.
unless romedied by general action.
are going to cause much confusion
and annoyance. especially in the vital
matter of train schedules.
LAS matters stand, the country
seems to be arrayed against the city,
with neither inclined to give In. The
business of the nation cannot be run
on any such helter-skelter time basis.
Let the whole country be put one
basis or another. either by national
action or the unanimous action OF
Estate Legislatures. The mixed con-
ditions that are impending would be Q
disgrace to q lot of Russian soviets."

THAT NEWARK BAY BRIDGE.

Tho Jersey Journal seems to think
that Newark has taken q selfish atti-
tude in regard to the e.opnlent of
Newark bay. The Newark News con-
siders the Central railroad bridge be-
tween Elizabethport and Bayonne as
the greatest obstacle to the improve
ment. Concerning this the Jersey
Journal says;
''The Newark Evening News is look
ing for a Moses that will lead the
municipalities surrounding Newark
bay out of the darkness of Disagree
ment. make them rorget the selfish In
~terests which the News seems inclined
to ascrlbe to all but Newark. and de-
! wise sono scheme for the development
of Newark bay, and securing federal
aid therefor that will harmonic with
IDEAS of all and sacrifice the interests
of none.
Tho thing of transcendant i'm
Iportance In the matter at present, as
the News sees it, is the proposed new
Central bridge over the bay between
Bayonne and Elizabethport. Newark
Is emphatically opposed to that bridge
or any other in the bay Or kills that
she fears may nave a tendency to
interfere with Port Newark. and the
News Is rather inclined to scold other
municipalities for not readily falling
in with that idea.
1.-THE opposition which other
municipalities have evinced toward
the proposal to eliminate the Central
and other bridges over the bay is based
on the same desire to protect their
own interests hal impels Newark to
demand that the bay be freed OF via
ducts. They are no moro selfish in
their attitude than Newark Is in hers.
"Bayonne and Elizabeth have a
great heal at stake in the matter of
having adequate means Of crossing the
bay. That is just as important to
them as free access to her new port is
to Newark. Neither wants her exist
ing means of getting across the bay
made less convenient than they are
now. and it. is the further earnest de-
sire of Bayonne to ESCAPE from the
bottle in which she is at present cork
ed up because of the absence of proper
facilities for sending her trucking and
similar traffic to South Jersey, and
even to Newark, inc receiving such
traffic from them. If some practicable
plan can be worked out that will
assure Bayonne II Elizabeth Of those
things 1t will undoubtedly find ready
assent there.
Granted that q Moses is needed.
Newark claims to have the most at
stake IN the matter. She also has
the largest population of any of the
her over 100000. Is there not a Moses
Iamong them?"
, There is a lesson here for the back
ers of the Raritan waterway project.
We must all work together If any
thing Is to be accomplished. No mat
ter what is done in this locality to i'm
prove the waterways whether it be In
the bay or not, all are bound to bone
fit. 1t is up to all of us to keep ever
lastingly at it.

was believed to be derived from Adah,

Adah was given to the wife of Lamech
