The certified public accountant who

for the Prosecutor, and later for the
Freeholders, among other things,
recommended that an order system
covering the purchase of all mater

effort should be made to protect the
taxpayers in these matters.
The Democratic members of the
Board Of Freeholders, however, saw
in this an opportunity to create an
other office. So they elected a re-

A WORTHY APPEAL IN BEHALF
OF A WORTHY SPORT

Mr.. Editor:
With the closing of the Base Ball
Season for 1921, we are reminded
that there has been some talk in
Hunterdon in times past of forming
League in the County to be made
up of strictly Hunterdon County boys
but the movement has always started
too late to make it possible.
1t has occurred to me that little
friendly discussion at this time might
make the scheme possible. And I
believe if it were started and car
ried through on business basis it
would stimulate interest in Base Ball
in Hunterdon, and provide real solid
clean amusement for small money to
many of our people who are not able
to take advantage of amusements To-
Gated at distance from their homes.
My experience has been that local
people like to see local teams play
and are more interested in the sue
cess Of local boy than in ten pro-
fessionals. !. woald rather see my
team trailing IN last place in local
eagur where ererv player was To-
cal boy doing his best to win, than
heading a league which simply meant
question of who would spend the
most money for team.
1t should be made possible to get
eight teams together in Hunterdon,
run the whole proposition ON the or
der of organized Base Ball and have
a successful season for every team.
Believing that this is possible and
practical l will offer a suitable pen
nant to the team leading such
league in Hunterdon County during
the year 1922, and earnestly request
the Managers of different teams in
the County to write me their views
of the proposition in order that we
may select a date for getting to-
gether and planning out the details,
if enough are interested.
Yours very truly,
Arthur F. Foran

Quite nc Good.

A farmer recently paid visit to a
neighbor, and as he passed along by
the side Of the fields he made men
tai note Of the fact that no scare
crows were visible.
Meeting the neighbor almost imme-
diateiy he opened conversation as
follows:
Good morning, Mr.. Oates. I see
you have no scarecrows in your fields.
How do you manage to do without
themf''
"Oh, well enough" was the inno-
cent reply. you see, I don't need
them, for I'm in the fields all day my
self"

BERT THOMAS FOR THE
FARMERS

Mr.. Thomas understands and SYM
pathizes with the agriculturist. In
conducting one of the largest and
most responsible feed and flour mills
in Hunterdon County for years, he
has been in close touch with thous-
ands Of farmers, and thru his bust
ness dealings has learned their prob
lens which are really his problems
as well.
Mr.. Thomas realizes how much
you are suffering under the present
unreasonable tax burdens and knows
that if elected he could help you
because he would be a member of
the majority party, and the passage
of helpful legislation, such as bills
designated to give Hunterdon more
aid for roads and schools, depends
upon favorable action by the major
ity. His opponent is not in harmony
with the Democratic minority led by
Governor Edwards and "Jim" Nu-
gent, would therefore, be against all
and with none.
The results would be that he could
accomplish little, if anything. You
need action, not words!
Some of the farmers are urged
to support Mr.. Agans because he
has been a lecturer in the State
Grange. Most farmers know as much
about farming as does Mr.. Agans,
and do not need to be told how to
farm by him. What they DO need
is active, productive effort on the
part Of their representatives to the
end that their burden may be light
ened. Mr.. Thomas can be depended
upon to help you.

Young America
Sends Vast Relief
To Needy Abroad

Various relief projects of the Junior
American Red Cross in European
countries resulted in helping $4,000
destitute children during the last fis-
cal year, according to the annual re.
port Of the American Red Cross for
that period. The growth of the activi-
ties Of the Juniors abroad is mani
tested by comparison which shows
this figure is 100000 larger than that
Of the previous fiscal year.
The National Children's Fund raised
by school children, members Of the
Junior American Red Cross, was
drawn upon for s42O557 for these prof.
ects. Receipts for the National Chill
dren's Fund during the last fiscal year
totalled $155,317.

AN APPEAL FROM AN AMERI-
CAN LEGION MAN TO HIS
COMRADES
Hampton, N. J.

Hampton, N. J.
Dear Comrades:-
AS a member Of Musconetcong
Post, / desire to remind you that
our faithful comrade, Chaplin A.
Lincoln Moore, of our post, is a
candidate for reelection to the Gen
eral Assembly.
1t is important that we return so
able a representative as we know
that any matter pertaining to the
welfare of our County and the Lee
gion will be safe in his hands.
I therefore request that you all
use your influence in behalf of Com
rade Moore. ] remain,
Yours in I.egionary ties,

S3258.14

If you can say it is mismanage-
ment and a wrongful expenditure of
the County's money to pay the Demo-
Gratis who have the facilities for do
ing public work and performing hon
est work and use their trucks in
doing so, is it not Just as much mis-
management to pay for the same work
and for the same class of trucks to
Republicans; or is it to be believed
that it is a crime for the Freeholders
to pay Democrats for an honest re-
turn for their trucks and for their
labor and to consider it a commend
able act on the part of the same Body
to pay for the same class of trucks
and work to Republicans.
Do you men and women voters of
this County think that such state
ments show any reason why William
Y. Holt the Democrat candidate for
Frech3lder should be defeated?
Why did not the Republicans state
in their article the full expenditure
for truck hire, when as matter of
fact they only stated the amounts
paid to Democrats. Their statement
was published for the purpose of try
ing to convince you that the public
monies were spent by the Freeholders
with the Democrats only and that
other citizens and taxpayers were not
allowed to participate in the eXpendi-
ture of public monies.
You know that statement made
Of only half the truth is more repre-
hensirlc Il IN an absolute falsehood.
Will you then say that William Y.
Holt should be defeated because the
Republicans did not get all the truck
/ hire, and that the Democrats should
not be in control of the Board of
Freeholders because portion Of the
money spent for truck hire in hauling
material for road repair was paid to
Democrats, when the Democrats gave
full value for the compensation re
ceived.
1t is not charged by the Republi
cans that the County did not get full
value for the services rendered By
the Democrats. Then are members Of
the Board of Freeholders to be con
demned because they employ Demo
Gratis to do an equal amount of worl
in hauling, repair materials or furn'
ishing automobiles as do the Repub-
Leans.
Tbs is only a sample of the des-
perate means adopted by the Repub-
licans to hoodwink the voters of the
County of Hunterdon in order to get
control of the Board of Freeholders.
Such conduct should be repudiated at
at the polls on election day and Will
liam Y. Holt who is worthy to re-
ceive the vote of every citizen, ir-
respective of party, should be elected.
VOTE FOR WILLIAM Y. HOLT.

for a period of five years. And un-
der the law as above stated not run
ming for a period to exceed six years
are not required to be advertised.
A full and complete inspection of
the records of the minutes of the
Board of Chosen Freeholders disclos-
es the fact that the expenditures of
all money, the issuing of bonds, ad-
vertising the financial statement, all
has been agreed to and voted for by
John J. Horn, Republican member,
after consulting his political advis-
ors, and if there are no other reasons
than those put forth by the Republi-
cans than those already advanced,
there is no reason why John Haines
should be elected Freebooter as he
could do no different than the law
requires to be done, if he performed
his sworn duty. And there could be
no more economy under his admin
istration than under the present adj
minstration. 1t has also been stated
from the platform by Mr.. Haines
that in case he was elected he would
not vote to appoint road supervisor
for a term of five years. He has al
ready stated in his printed platform
that he will do that which the law
requires him to do and give a just,
legal and economical administration.
His statements in his speeches then
are different from those in his pub
lished platform. Because the law re-
quires that where you have macadam
roads built by State Aid, (as we have
in Hunterdon County, that it shall
be the duty Of the Board Of Chosen
Freeholders to appoint fit and suit
able person to act as Supervisor of
Roads for term of five years. I'm
der this law it is not discretionary
with the Board of Chosen Freeholders
as to whether supervisor should be
appointed or not. The Freeholders
are compelled under the law to APP
point supervisor and the law fixes
his term of office, not the Freehold
ers. If Mr.. Haines or any other per-
son elected as a member of the Board
of Chosen Freeholders desired that
the term of office of Road Super
visor shall not be for five years, but
for shorter term, they must have
the Legislature change the law.
Under the caption "Do You APP
prove of This?" the Republicans pub
lished the fact that the Freeholders
have paid to certain Democrats and
to corporation of the County con-
trolled by Democrat, and to corp
grafton beyond the County Lines,
whose political affiliations of its Of
ficers are unknown, have received
$4178.25 for the use Of trucks in
hauling material for road repair pur-
poses and say that that is respon-
sible and ask you to vote against
William Y. Holt, the Democratic can
didate for Freebooter, because such
expenditures (Which by the way were
necessary having been paid to Demo-
Gratis. 1t is publicly known that such
expenditures were made and they
were necessary. 1t is also publicly
known that during the same period
these Democrats were paid for the
use of their trucks, there was also
paid for the same purpose to the
following named persons, who were

Read the Truth

David H. AganS, candidate for
Senator, is too well known in this
County to require any extended state
ment in his behalf. He is known by
every citizen. For years he served in
the House of Assembly and his rec
ord is well known, So well in fact,
that even in this campaign there has
not been a single criticism. His at
titude upon all public questions has
received the approval of the citizens
of this County and his election in
this campaign is conceded, even by
his opponents. David H. Agans has
been identified not only with the
agricultural interests of his native
county but also of the State of New
Jersey, and he is today the repre-
sentative of that interest and every
voter in this County can be assured
that his every act as their repre-
sentative in the Senate of New Jer-
sey will be to reflect their will and
their desire and for their best in
terest. He is pledged to the strictest
economy in governmental expendi-
lures, both state and county, and it
is not a case of taking his word that
he will do it; he has done it as your
representative in the past and he
will do it in the future.
The candidate for member of As
sembly, Frank H. Welsh, of Clinton
Township, has also been identified
from his earliest days with the ag-
ricultural interests of this county. He
is familiar with it's interests and is
well qualified to properly reflect and
represent Hunterdon County in the
House of Assembly. From personal
knowledge he knows their needs, has
been identified with agricultural
movements and can be relied upon to
protect the interests of all people of
this County Vote for him.
A year ago the Republicans APP
pealed to the people of this County
for change We had change. Last
year the House of Assembly was
composed of fifty-nine Republicans
and one Democrat. The present Re-
publican candidate for the Assembly
was a member of that body. All the
measures he now advanced he sup
ported year ago and not one of
them ever reached a vote in the
House of Assembly. His school bill
seeking aid was never voted upon;
his road bill was never voted upon.
If the Republican candidate in the
House Of Assembly consisting of fiji
ty-nine Republicans and one Demo-
crat could not accomplish anything,
what merit is there in the claim that
he should be reelected so that he
can secure something.
Frank H. Welsh knows the needs
of the people and is we'll qualified
and will properly represent their
views.

VOTE FOR HIM.

In 1917 we had a Republican Gov
ernor and the legislature was con-
trolled by the Republicans and dur
ing the session of that Legislature
they passed law creating the office
known as Commissioner of Munici-
pal Accounts" which was a new of
flee and fixed the salary at 100000
per year, under which law all NUM-
cipalities were required to make ann
ual financial statements to the new
ly created officer, which statements
included bonded Indebtedness, float
ing Indebtedness, as well as receipts
and disbursements of all monies.
This not only included counties but
all townships, boroughs and Boards
of Education. In 1918 when the Gov
ernor was Republican and the Legis-
lature was still controlled by the Re-
publicans there was passed law
requiring the appointment of audi
tors for the purpose of auditing the
accounts of municipalities and coun-
ties, and all auditors to be licensed
by the Commissioner of Municipal
Accounts a report of this audit to
be filed with the Commissioner of
Municipal Accounts" and such sum-
mare of said report as directed by
the Commissioner of Municipal AZ
counts to be published for two weeks
in one newspaper of the county or
in the township, if one was there n
printed, and if not, in one newspaper
circulating in the County.
Under that law the Board of Chcs-
en- Freeholders of the County of Hun
terdon employed H. B. Shinn & Son.
who were regularly licensed, to make
the audit, and their report was filed
and duly approved. In 1919 the same
auditors were reemployed to audit
the accounts, and the audit was not
approved, as new rule had beer
promulgated by the Commissioner oil
Municipal Accounts" which require
not only the audit of the expendi-
lures by the Board of Chosen Free
holders but also the receipts from
the various County Officers, to wit
sheriff, county clerk and surrogate.
And because the accountant failed
to do that, the audit for 1919 was not
approved and the same not having
been completed at the expiration OF
Shinn's license, the license of H. B
Shinn as State Auditor was with
held by the Commissioner Of NUM-
cipal Accounts" No notice was given
to the Board of Chosen Freeholders
or the then County Collector of that
fact and before the 1919 audit had
been approved H, B. Shinn under
took to complete the audit for 1920
when 1t was ascertained in the month
of May that his license had not been
renewed for the year and would not
be renewed, the Board of Chosen
Freeholders Immediately passed q
resolution and appointed James S
Teunon, of the City of Trenton, which
appointment was Immediately ap.
proved by the Commissioner Of
Municipal Accounts" and Mr.. Teu
non undertook to complete the audi
of 1919 and 1920, which he dit
promptly, and filed the same as tn
law required with the State Mum
cipal Accountant, which report wa
approved by the Commissioner, ,
being full, complete, true and hor

of the expenditures of the County

1t has been stated that the Board
of Chosen Freeholders has issued
bonds in an irregular way, claiming
that the illegal act being the failure
of the Freeholders to advertise the
bonds for sale. The law does not
require municipal bonds to be adver-
tised for sale when they are given for
a period not to exceed six year, for
road improvement, either for new
work or reconstruction. The bonds
were issued to pay the countys hare
of the roads built in East Amwell
Township, Borough of Milford Al
exandria and Holland Townships and
in Franklin and Union Townships,
and made payable in one year. hese
bonds were afterward funded b. an
issue of bonds Tin just the an cunt
