A GOOD MAN COMES TO THE
FRONT

In our issue of July 10Th. l summed
up the conclusion of the majority of
the Republican and Independent
voters of Hunterdon County when W.
Egbert Thomas was called on to carry
the Republican banner to the State
Senate for the next three years. Fol
lowing this, petitions were widely cir
culated and signed to such an extent
that Mr.. Thomas has agreed to make
a campaign for nomination at the
polls September 9th.
He says that he is going to roll up
his sleeves and make a whirl-wind
campaign. And we believe he is going
to do it. He has good man to beat,
but he can beat him if he tries. One
point at issue in the case of his oppoR
ent, Mr.. David H. Agans, is that the
voters are going to realize that, even
if elected, Mr.. Agans would be "a
man without country should he get
to the Senate. Mr.. Agans is dry one
of the original and consistent drys
of Hunterdon County. He would find
when he got to Trenton that his party
the Democratic party would outlaw
him. Because the Democratic Senator's
left in the Senate are all vets with
a capitol wv.
They, with their colleagues in the
Senate, passed the Edwards Beer Bill
which was made void by the Van Ness
Enforcement Act Mr.. Agans is dry
and consistently So But Mr.. Agan's
colleagues would be wet. And it is a
known fact that oil and water WILL
NOT mix. Mr.. Agans would be at dag
gers points with his colleagues. He
could not accomplish anything for
Hunterdon County. Everything he
might propose would be fought by his
colleagues.
Mr.. Thomas would not have this
handicap. He is as dry, and as con-
sistently, as Mr.. Agans. Also the ma
jority of his colleagues in the Senate
would be dry. He would be welcomed.
Whatever he proposed would find CO.
operation among his colleagues in the
Senate. Mr.. Thomas would be in
position to help Hunterdon County.
And God knows Hunterdon County
needs help!

yond question. But all these things can
be done with fairness to the public.
| do not believe that Mr.. Ford's
offer should be summarily rejected. l
do believe that it should be changed;
first, to make it fit the Roosevelt
waterpower Conservation policy, now
the law of the land;
second, to make it pay for the prop
erty of the people something APP

really worth, and
third, to make what if offers to the
farmers clear beyond doubt.
1t is said that certain Wall Street
magnates who hate Mr.. Ford are
anxious that his offer should be re-
jected. What these men think about
Mr.. Ford and his offer is surely no
reason for giving him public proper
ty of enormous value for consider
alton wholly inadequate and on terms
utterly unfair to the public,
| should be glad to see Mr.. Ford
make money, and plenty of money,
out of taking over the property of
the people as he proposed to do, but
not such perpetual and gigantic pro-
fits as his offer would assure. 1t is
fair to consider the public also, and
to remember that all the annual pay
ments Mr.. Ford offers to make would
amount to only one-third of the year
ly taxation necessary to meet the in
terest charge lat the Liberty Loan
rate of Az per cent? on the Govern
ment's net investment in the proper
ty he proposed to take over, and that
he would get the waUerpower for
nothing.

ALL WHO BELIEVE THAT
DEMOCRATIC FREEHOLDER
WILL HELP HUNTERDON
COUNTY, LET THEM
STAND ON THEIR
HEADS

The Democratic Bosses of Hunter
don County chatting because of the
futile grip they have come to have
during the last twelve months, have
been hard put to it for a candidate
for Freebooter Numerous Democrats
who have ambitious clamorings have
been scuttling around like mice who
smell, in an effort to win the graces
of the aforementioned bosses, but
said bosses have frowned horribly and
growled "NOw
But at last they have succeeded,
after raking the county with fine
tooth comb, in settling upon William
Y. Holt, of Raritan Township. Mr..
Holt is a house mover and general
contractor. But we have no assurance
that he would move" anything on
the Board that would be to the bene-
fit of taxpayers.
The Democratic machine has work
ed only too we'll it has ruined its
chances of convincing the tax payers
of Hunterdon County that their in
terests are protected. 1t is deplorable
for the Democrats that their short
eomings should be so fragrant at this
critical time of all the year. The
present Board, with Democratic ma
jority, has dilly-dallied, fumbled fid-
died and flunked, until the finances
of the County are in a deplorable
condition. John J. Horn, the Republ-
can member, unfamiliar with proce-
dure, has been blocked in every effort
he has made to untangle the mess. He
has tried as hard as any sincere man
could try, to see that the moneys of
this county have been properly ex-
pended and accounted for. But when
ever he has raised his voice he has
been snubbed and ignored and secrete-
~ laughed at. The Democratic mem
bers, safe in their arrogance of assur-
ance of their majority, paid no atten-
ton to the sincere efforts of Mr..
Horn.
As a result, the County Financial
Statement was pan-handled for six
months past the time when it Should
have been published, And then, be-
cause public opinion had grown so in.

of the case, and published a boiled

When Clover Hill Bridge washe
away during one of the recent storms
the Board of Freeholders met in spec

about it. One of the biggest bridge
in the county $50 foot span had bee

In the end they called on the

Do be efficient and reliable, must
have a combination of BUSINESS,

John j. Horn, present Republican
member of the Board is an efficient
road builder. John C. Haynes who is
candidate for office on this Board
is business man and financier, whose
ability is recognized by Democrats, In
dependents and Republicans alike.
With Mr.. Haynes on the Board of
Freeholders, no one need to worry
about what to do in cases of finan-
cial emergency. No one need to worry
about what becomes of County money
with John C. Haynes in charge.
THE VOTERS OF HUNTERDON
COUNTY MUST PROTECT THEIR
INTERESTS.

tiIizer it would consume but 100 thou
sand horsepower out of the $4,000 in
stallation. This is the heart of the
whole matter.
AS a Waterpower proposition, the
Ford offer is in every important point
directly contrary to the Roosevelt
waterpower policy, which after Is
years Of struggle was finally enacted
into law last year.
The Roosevelt policy provides that
all waterpower leases shall be limited
to fifty years. The Ford offer asks
for 100 years with indefinite renew
ais.
The Roosevelt policy provides for
return of the Government works at
the end of fifty years. The Ford
offer provides for indefinite private
possession of the Government works.
The Roosevelt policy provides for
regulation of the price to the power
consumer. The Ford offer, so far as
the United States is concerned, pro-
vides no check on what the power
consumer must pay.
The Roosevelt policy provides that
public waterpower taken for profit
shall make a return to the public. The
Ford offer asks for many hundred
thousand horsepower for nothing.
The amount of power Mr.. Ford
could develop, under his offer, is
greater by half than all that is now
being developed at Niagara Falls. If
Mr.. Ford were to pay for it at the
rates charged by the Government to
other companies that build their own
works, as Mr.. Ford would not, it
would cost him about $50 thousand
dollars year.
Beyond question Nitrate Plant
Number 2 ought to be maintained in
condition for producing explosives in
case of War. Most certainly it ought
to be used for making fertilizer for
American farmers. The wisdom of
developing the waterpower on the
Tennessee and its tributaries is be-
