PERTH AMBOY REPRESENTED,

AS a result of the election Tues
day Perth Amboy will, at last, have
a representative on the Board of
Freeholders. Walter G.. Quacken-
bush. who has just been elected to
the county board from this city, is
we'll fitted for the position having
been closely identified with county
affairs through his position as county
supervisor of roads.
Mr.. Quackenbush has long been a
resident of this city where he stands
high in the estimation of his fellow
townsmen. He is well acquainted
with the needs of Perth Amboy and
understands the relations which the
city bears to the county as a whole.
While 1t cannot be said that Perth
Amboy has suffered because of the
lack Of representation on the county
board. the taxpayers here will feel a
great deal better now that they have
a direct voice in the spending of the
county's money through direct rep
There is every reason to believe
that Mr.. Quackenbush will be a val
liable addition TO the Board of Free
holders. Coming from the city pay
ing the largest county tax, his opin-
ions will be entitled to careful con-
sideration and his experience in road
matters will make him an authority
in this important feature of county
affairs. Perth Amboy as well as Mr..
Quackenbush is to be congratulated
upon this particular outcome Of
Tuesdays election.

A IINE START.

In the election of Isaac Alpern

Mr.. Alpern is a progressive business
man closely aHliated with the in

His interest in the city is unbounded
and his enthusiasm and energy will
count for much In its advancement.
Mr.. Alpern may be said to be a
product of Perth Amboy. He has
grown up here, so to speak. and
boosting Perth Amboy is his hobby.
He has the reputation of making a
success of everything he has taken
hold of and there is reason to be-
lieve that the Chamber of Commerce
will be no exception.
To accomplish results, however,
Mr.. Alpern must have the
ton of not only the rest of the di-
rectors. but of the entire member
The success of the first forum

pie of the city to get behind it and
make 1t the power for good that it is
intended to be in this community.

A GREAT VICTORY.

One of the most satisfactory put
comes of the election Tuesday was
the result in Wisconsin where Sena-
tor Lenroot, whose loyalty in the
midst of a great anti-American COM
munity has attracted nationwide at
tention, was reelected to the United
States senate. Milwaukee is the hot
bed of Socialism and Wisconsin was
so pro-German in it's attitude during
the war that it was almost ready to
secede from the Union.
1t is in Wisconsin where Senator
LaFollette has held sway so long.
practically debating the public
affairs of the state. Victor Berger.
who was twice refused a seal in con-
gress after having been twice elected
from his district. because of his Sc
ditious utterances, is another pro-
duct of Wisconsin.
Senator Lenroot, in spite of this
sentiment within the state he rep
resents. has defled it all and has
stood for straight out and out Ameri-
canism. He has refused to take dicta-
ton from LaFollette and therefore
the later set Ito get" him. Len
root had the hardest kind of a fight,
but he won handsomely.
LaFollette has, for the first time
in years. lost control of Wisconsin.
Victor Berger has gone down to de-
feat.
No little credit for this outcome is
due the women. They turned
out strong and stood fol
straight, unadulterated A~mericanism
They have put Wisconsin in the
Union once more. They have made
it possible for loyal Americans hail
ing from that state to once more
hold their head up among their fell
low citizens.
Senator Lenroot's victory in Wis
~consin is one of the great outstand-
ing features of a great election. II
shows that the American people car
be trusted TO do the right thing. The
republic is safe in their hands.
