Stokes PRAISES HARDING'S
WORK At CONVENTION
CONTINUED from page -

tSOilAidSu LiOlI Pa5t l
pie by his sincerity, simplicity and
commonsense. Warren G.. Harding
reminds us of the loveable. gentle
William Mckinley.
without claiming all the states
manship or patriotism of the nation
we have a right to be glad that
Abraham Lincoln. Ulysses S. Grant.
William Mckinley, Theodore Roose-
welt and Warren G.. Harding will go
down in history as Republicans.
"In actual offices at stake this may
be described as ar off-year. In an
other sense there is no off year. New
Jersey will either this fall cast a
vote Of confidence or lack of conf
dence upon the administration.
Events may not have moved as rap
idly as some of US would like, but
when we consider the enormous
amount of house cleaning necessary
after eight years of Democratic adj
ministration. we are content that
the Republican administration has
been able to accomplish s 10 much.
We rejoice not as partisans, but as
patriotic citizens that the President
of our nation in his invitation to a
world parley on the limitation of
armament has given us the first
vision of the rainbow of peace and
has touched a responsive chord in
every home in the civilized world.
1T would indeed be unfortunate
if New Jersey, that was the banner
state in Republican majorities last
year., should fail TO enthusiastically
recommend by a Republican victory
at the polls the constructive admins
tration at Washington and its great
peace program. The election of a
Republican majority is not only or
state, but of national Importance.
New Jersey will probably gain W o
c-ongressmen in the apportionment
under the national census. The next
legislature will determine the lines
of the congressional districts that
these congressman will represent. II
the House of Assembly should be
Democratic and the senate and the
House divided politically. this i'm
portant work could not well be &C
complished. If the House is Repub-
lican this work will be properly
done.
The campaign will be short. Let
it be correspondingly intensive. Let
US not be lulled into any false sense
of security because OF the majority
of last year. Lord Nelson said. Eng
land expected every man to do his
duty. The New Jersey Republicans
expect every man TO do his duty ane
we know that every woman will do
hers and the result will not be in
doubt"

EEW REAL ESTATE
LAW EFFECTIVE

TRENTON. Oct. affective on
F1turday last, but with the begin
ming of the present week an import
ant enactment of the last legisla-
Iure becomes effective that will do
much to eliminate from the real es-
tate business an undesirable class of
persons who have been engaged in
the handling of real estate. No per-
son can legally engage in the real
estate business until he has first
registered as a bonafde real estate
agent or salesman and the law was
passed particularly to safeguard the
interests of the real estate owner
and the prospective real estate pur-
chaser, as well as the legitimate real
estate broker and salesman.
The act will tend to exclude UNI
desirable, irresponsible and schem-
ing persons from embracing oppor-
tunities Of deceiving the trusting
and inexperienced public in real es-
tate transactions.

ton yesterday afternoon waited
from 1850 until 4:49 o'clock for a
train to take them to their homes in

The reason for this was the fact that
they had not seen the new time
tables which went into effect Sunday
showing there is no train south from
1850 until 4:49 o'clock. The people
went to the station with the expec-
tations of boarding the 2:09 train
for their homes, but this train now
passes through the city without
stopping.
