REPUBLICANS INSURE
ECONOMICAL CONDUCT

Washington.-Not one man in ten
thousand realizes the enormous ex-
penses run up by the present Govern
ment The disbursements are roughly
$15,000,000 day. more than year
after the war. In 1914 the people
expostulated because the daily dis
bursements by the Treasury had
reached $4,000 How gladly would
the people groaning under the impo-
sitions Of protteers and the burden of
taxes welcome a return to those hal
cyon daysl Congress and the new Ad-
ministration will have to deal with
the reduction Of Government expendi-
lures.
The same party that has swelled
them returned to power will never re-
duce them, because 1t claims the gov
eminent is being economically admin
istered. The Republican party will
delight in reducing these enlarged ex-
penses for clerk hire, and the insa-
table bureaus that have been built up
into money spending machines. By
holding In their hands all lines of ex-
penditures the new Congress and new
Executive working together will cut
down excessive items and eliminate
others to an aggregate of hundreds
of millions Of dollars.

QUESTIONABLE"

Dear Mr.. Editor;
do the people of Hunterdon Coun-
ty remember that in 1910 the Demo-
cratic County Clerk, Oliver A. Farlee
was a candidate for the Nomination
for a second term?
Do the people of Hunterdon County
remember that Mr.. Farlee's very
strongest supporter was the Hunter
don Democrat? Do they remember
that the Democrat" supported Mr..
Farlee on the ground of his efficien-
cy?
Do the people of Hunterdon County
remember that State Senator Geb-
hardt also strongly supported Mr..
Farlee for the same reason?
Do the people of Hunterdon County
remember that Mr.. Charles Holcombe
the present Democratic Candidate for
County Clerk was one of Senator Geb-
hardt's lieutenants, and that he was
a warm supporter of M r.Faryee's
canddidacy for the second term?
Do the people of Hunterdon County
remember that during Mr.. Farlee's
entire term he conducted commiss-
ion business in New York, and that
he spent three days a week in New
York attending to that business?
Do the people of Hunterdon County
remember that Mr.. Farlee had an eff.
ficient Deputy in the person of Mr.
John M. Hyde, and do the people re
member that Oliver Kugler, Mr.. Far
lees successor, retained the services
of Mr. Hyde during his entire tern
because of his efficiency?
And last, but not least:-
Do the people of Hunterdon County
remember that Judah Higgins, the
present County Clerk, and candidate
to succeed himself, retained the ser
vices of Mr.. Hyde so long as his ply
steal condition permitted him to per
form his duties? Notwithstanding tht
fact that Mr.. Hyde was Democrat
Does it not make Editor Kilgore
look very inconsistent and picayune
to be opposing Mr.. Higgins merely be:
cause he is candidate for second
term? =,
We think that Brother Kilgore will
realize on the day after election that
the people have remembered the les
son he gave them, and that they have
taken the advice he gave them then.
A REPUBLICAN.

ON PERSONAL CRITICISM

Last week an article appeared in
this papar reporting meeting held
by the Kalmia Club on the night of
October IS. 1t has been criticised as
involving too much personal criticism.
No such thing was intended. The
article was intended simply as a re-
port of the meeting. Everything said
in the story was true. This was ad-
mitted.
If the editor had expressed his per-
sonal opinions, it would have been to
say that it was extremely gratifying
to hear the speakers expressions so
strongly made for the Republican
Party. We should have said that it
was significant that, despite the re-
strictions placed on the speaker
she nevertheless felt impelled to say
some things which her hearers took
issue with.
Personally the editor is convinced
that without restrictions, Miss Buch-
anon could make a forceful and in
teresting address. She demonstrated
this when several times she flashed
back answers to some TO her ques-
toners in determined and convinc-
ing way that was delightful.
The Kalmia Club does not have tt
defend itself for the meeting in any
way whatsoever. Its reputation is es.
tablished. Its members are composed
of the choicest women of the city.
The editor is extremely grateful fiji
the courtesy extended him in being
welcomed to the meeting in question
And if offense was taken by this
papers report of it, it is sincerely re
GREETED.
This paper, however, is always go
ing to publish the truth in everything
insofar as it sees it. But we have nc
monopoly on the truth. We may otter
be wrong. When we are, we appre
ciate being corrected just as much a.
we appreciate commeudation for tht
truth. We acknowledge that it is MOI
always expedient to tell the truth
but to tell nothing at all. In such case:
we gladly invite counsel. And wher
any question is at issue, will gladly
give consideration and space in oul
columns to both sides.

mo CORNER ON PATRIOTISM"

Dear Mr.. Editor;
"Dr. Brown is doing considerable
advertising in an effort to capture a
seat in Congress. He seems proud of
the fact that he was Overseer of the
Poor of Princeton from 1912 to 1915,
and seeks to capitolize his war work
as though he had been extraordinarily
patriotic. He speaks of himself as "a
man who will spring to the defense
of his country's flag" etc, as though
acting as a doctor in one of the home
camps was a much drawer thing to do
than to do the work that Congress
man Hutchinson(who is old enough to
be his father twas doing at Washing
ton.
DIR. Browne is an athletic young
man who could well have served near
err the battle line, and while / do not
wish to belittle his war work, lido
not think it was any more important
or dangerous that that done by Cong
gresham Hutchinson"
