OMENS IN JERSEY

THE ways of the Democrats in New Jersey
l. always have been strange. In the days
when Jim Nugent was nt the party helm YOU
might have voted against Republican candi
date. but by some magic known only in the
high places your vote often would be made TO
help toward the election of the man YOU
opposed. The two parties were as thoroughly
intrrmingcd in some parts of the state as
eggs in an omelct.
The Jersey Democrats are still n strange
folk. They have just closed state convcn-
ton Mt Trenton. Any one who sat in regu-
larly at the sessions would have been willing
to swear at one moment that he was listen
ing to hard boiled Republicans Of the old
school. while in the next it seemed that the
delegations were forging swiftly toward n
political millennium.
The vivid contrasts of the debate were due,
it appears. to the fact that women voters
were largely represented for the first time
hy women who were able to get the measure
Of the old bosses and fight them when issues
were clearly defined. And Mr. Nugent him.
self was badly maulcd. lie rode chrcrfully
along to victory after victory in fields

presented Il wet resolution and was foored
for the count
The Trenton convention roundy criticized
Mr.. Wilson's policies. 1t turned fire on
Governor Edwards himself Mr.. Nugent
was holding the reins then. There was n
declaration for self determination for Ire
land Still the women followed the leaders.
The governor was brratcd in n resolution
because he uncercmonOusIy ousted a high
way commission that seems, indeed. to have
deserved ousting. To the very last Mr.. Nu-
gent delayed the introduction of a wet reso-
lutinn and thpu thn prOCpplinpS rnmp a n
halt and the convention almost ended in
disorder before light wines and beer lost by
an overwhelming vote
Gradually the country is learning what
women voters have in mind. And that may

can be the the drycst of the drys before most

WISDOM AT RIGA
JrNEXPECTED moderation by t

TNENPECIED moderation by the Poles
- is indicated in the report Of the pre-
lilniuury peace pact said to have been signed
at Riga between Jan Dumbski, representing
the Warsaw Government, and Adolph JOffe
on behalf Of Soviet Russia.
The compliance of the latter is explicablc.
The Boshcvist armies have been method
cally defeated. Winter is coming on and
di,illsionmcnt in Russia is keeping pace
with it. The war flare Of the Moscow Gov.
crnmcnt has dctrrioratCd.
On the other hand, the Poles, if the cables
are authentic, have proposed as the basis of
understanding their minimum demands, and
have suggested an eastern frontier far more
reasonable and ethnOlOgicaly sound than any
upon which Pilsudski has been flamboyantly
insisting.
If peace can be established on the new
FERNS the Poles will have done much to atone
for their reckless advance on Kcv some
months ago. Their militaristic adventure
in its wild aspects was deplOrnblc, if for no
other reason than that it diverted much
sympathy to the BOlshevist cause, which on
broad grounds deserved none Of it.
The details of the case, however, indicated
that a, government of which most of the
world strongly disapprovcd had been abused
In other words, the Poles bungcd II good
cause. and it is encouraging and clarifying
to public opinion to note traces of ethical

Aiggestion made repeatedly in these columns,
yeggman in an automobile has mn ad-
vantage over the community. He has an
advantage over the police. 1t is clear that
professional thugs have been finding motors
increasingly useful, and it is surprising that
means were not found before this to enable
the police to meet an entirely new and novel
problem on even terms.
Motor patrols specially organized and

direct general attention TO the devastating
influence of gang politics on the English
language?
: For long time party names. like party
designations. adjcctivcs and slogans. have
ceased to have any great meaning. Office
seekers of the average sort long ago seized
what was supposed to be an exclusively
feminine prcrogativc and began to say yes
when they meant mo" and mo when they
meant something else.
The habit of using words to conceal
thought has been developed wonderfully on
the stump. Terms and phrases mean one
thing in ordinary usage and something en-
tirely different in the speeches and propa-
ganda Of all the lesser candidates.
S0N it is not unnatural to find that
rather hard driven wing of the Ware organi-
xation has pre- cmptGd the title Of new
"Peoples party to aid furtive war for
political supremacy in this end of the state.
The people have few friends among the
professional politicians. When Peoples
