A LARGE ORDER
BY DIR. W. e. BARTON

Mexico and Japan and Panama to
think about, and a few other items
when those have been attended to-"
1t is not an easy problem, and il
we do not know it. we ought to know
it. The thoughtful officials of the
government are thinking about
these matters, day and part of the
night. z
1t is not America alone which they
have to consider. Our economic and
| political problems are effectually in
iuenced by conditions outside of II
own country. The problem of sell-
ing anything abroad without lowels
ing the exchange to a point that
would be ruinous to American bust
ness is involved. and SO are many
| other considerations.
1t is the privilege of every Ameri-
can to grumble about the inef1iciency
of congress, and we shall not give
up that privilege. But let us now
| and then remind ourselves as a mat
ter of fair play that ever congress
| does not know a way whereby we
| can a our cake and keep it. too.
d%isgraceful affair which took place
there at 4:30 in the morning and
which / witnessed. I am appealing
to you, Mr.. Editor, hoping that
through your valuable paper some
thing may be done to relieve the
residents of this neighborhood OF
this annoyance.
Respectfully yours,

ENFORCING THE 'DRY" LAW.

without waiting for the new state law to
go into effect the Camden police conducted a
raid on saloons early Sunday morning, visiting
sixty-three places and arresting. $50 men and
fifty women. Some were charged with violating
the prohibition law and others with operating
gambling houses. In addition to the saloons
several cigar store proprietors were arrested
charged with dispensing liquor.
Chief Tonnesen has promised Perth Amboy
a cleanup after May 1 when the new state
prohibition enforcement law becomes operative.
The chief has an excellent reputation to uphold.
He assumes full responsibility by declaring that
no one is holding him back; that he has a free
hand to go the limit.
1t is to be hoped that when the police do
get busy they will not confne their efforts to
the men with little influence, leaving the larger
and best known places unmolested.
1t is rather disconcerting in this connection
To hear that liquor recently stolen from the
home of a prominent dealer in this city has
Been quietly returned and no questions asked.
A law-breaker is a law-breaker no matter how
much of a pull he may have.
OF course, now that the tip has gone forth
that after May 1 there is to be,a cleanup here,
liquor dealers will be on their guard for a time
but the practice adopted in some cities of hav-
Ing policemen quietly drop into the drinking
places that are kept so carefully screened all
the time, every few hours would be certain
of results, if the policeman did his duty.
And in doing their, work the police must
have the cooperation Of the courts. Judge
DAILY, who from the very beginning of prohi-
bition has shown a commendable sternness In
nphoIding the law in all cases of liquor viola
tions, disappointed a great many people In let
ting off with a fine the woman who pleaded
guilty to selling gin to the negro who commit
ted such a heinous crime here a few weeks
ago. 1t would seem almost as If the judge
went out of his way to give this woman a
slean bill of health. The fact that the court has
Is any responsibility for the crime committed
IL concerned, does not alter public opinion in re-
gard to the matter.
In fact, at the very time the judge was tell
sigma on her name as a result of what hap
pened she was openly violating the law and is
still doing so today by maintaining a wines
and liquors" advertising sign extending across
the front of her building.
This probably will be one Of the things that
will receive the attention of the police after
May /. But it is only a minor affair compared
with other work that Chief Tonnesen will have
on his hands, once the state prohibition en-
forcement law goes into effect. I

EDTTOR EVENING NEWS.

LlyllOIS LN E1NlINN ~
After reading the letter by "A
Constant Reader" from Matawan
who, by the way, was ashamed to
sign his name, l wish along with all
free thinking people to thank God
that narrow minded people of his
stripe are few and far between. He
says regarding the contributions
for relief of the sufferings of the
women and children of poor old
Ireland that charities begin at
home. My opinion is that any one
depending on charities from his like
would often go hungry and cold.
In his letter he states the sons of
pro-German and pro-Irish fought
in the armies of England and Amer
lea. Here he puts England down
ahead of our own beloved America.
This goes to prove that he belongs
to the old tory stock and If traced
back it might be that some of his
ancestors were busy in BURNING our
capitol at Washington. America
entered late war to free small ma
tions and not to help England grab
more territory, which is just what
happened. I would like to come in
personal contact with this Con

argument.

I met a friend who is a member
of congress and congratulated him
upon the large majority by which
he had been reelected. He said:
THAT is one of the embarrass-
ments of the situation. There are
so many men who think they elect
ed me, and who want me to do what
they want DONE"
1 said to him, "Your task is an
easy one"
He said, II wish I thought So"
Said /, "All this congress needs to
do is to reduce taxation, and at the
same time increase the OF
the government; to increase wages
and at the same time decrease the
cost of living; to increase the pros
perity of the farmer and the manu-
f~acturer, and at the same time re-
duce the cost of commodities to the
ultimate consumer.
He asked, "Is that all?"
I said, mo; 1 had not finished;
that is all that is necessary in that
one department of your responsible
ity. You then have Europe and
from Germany to sweep the other
three provinces of Ireland. They
had the government back of them
and didn't need any help from any

Lloyd George was waging war

said at one time.

THE FRIEND.

Steps to preserve the forests in America are

danger that confronts us is yet fully realized.

of lives.
In three of the provinces of China covering
an area of some 100. 900 square miles. several
million people are starving. The immediate
cause of the famine were disastrous floods
followed by long periods of drought which re-

which has descended. In this way

They like to steal bases, but, unlike other teams,

anything else, and the most envied position on
the team is the shortstop. There are a lot of out
