Creighton's Vote of Confidence

The supporters of the Creighton candidates -Plunkett Irvine and Barnett, are making frantic efforts to stem the tide that is fast rising against them, by pointing to their so- called vote of confidence in the Primary. For their information it might be we'll to state that the Creighton candidates received an average of 1900 in contrast with 2300 against them. In addition, 1700 voters did not vote. The new registration shows an overwhelming preponderance in favor of Young, Shott and Woods. Perhaps that has been the cause of the City Commissions recent astounding refusal to give the Young ticket equal representation on the election boards April 9th. This hardly shows confi- dence. It spells DESPERATION. George U. Young will be the next Mayor of

Big Money in Muskrats

A number of trappers along Dennis
Greek are making a hundred dollars
a day catching muskrats. The price
of fur is the highest ever, when from
Sc down to SO per hide is being re-
ceived. The work is more profitable
than fishing in the summer, and scores
of men who are usually idle at this
season, have gone into the trapping
business on a large scale. Some
parties have as many as $500 traps
set, but it requires constant attention,
and the men are working in relays.
Four years ago muskrat skins sold for
Is cents apiece.

NOTICE
To the Patrons of the Salem and
Penns Grove Traction Company

Penns Grove traction company
We have made application to the
Board of Public Utility Commissioners
of the State for permission to in
crease our fare from five to seven
cents for each fare limit or division,
and a hearing will be had at Trenton,
. n. j., on January 9th, 1920, at II
o'clock A. NJ, at the State House, for
the purpose of considering our appli-
cation.
In order that you may more fully
understand our reasons for asking this
increase we take this opportunity of
advising you that we are n of the
three roads in this State, who are
charging the same rate or fare as in
pre-war days, every other railway in
this immediate vicinity on both sides
of the Delaware River having increased
their fare, some of them twice, since
the beginning of the War.
1t is an accepted fact the country
over, that owing to the increased cost
of production the days of the five-cent
cigar, quart of milk, movie ticket and
ice cream soda has passed and to this
must now be added the trolley fare,
for where one man sells tobacco, we
sell transportation. Our business is
the same as any other business and
unless we can pay our way we cannot
live. If the road continues to operate
at all it must earn sufficient money
not only to pay all the costs and taxes
and other expenses incident to operate
it, but must make some return to those
people of Salem County who have in
vested their money in the property.
Accompanying u petition for in
crease, is attached a statement show
ing in detail the loss which we have
faced since the closing of the War
activities, including the Munition
Plants at Carneys Point. Thus not
only has u income been seriously re-
duced and our operating expenses in
creased, but we have been compelled
to repave streets, and raise roads,
which must be paid for.
All that we can ask is that you as
part of the fair minded Public will
appreciate our position and realize
that we have operated the road at a
loss as long as we are able, but that
now if we are to continue we must
have this increase, and we feel conf
dent that you will be willing to pay it
the same as you have been willing to
pay the increase for every other COM
modify which you purchase.
