There will be no guesswork in arriv-

matter of public utilities, the Repub-

not a program which smacks Of an

a program which seeks to go no fur

unfolding of the utilities because
they must be upheld. They are the
sine que non of the economic life
Of this state. They must be had
and they must prosper reasonably,

the Democratic governor. You know
that he promised, and threatened
to turn the old commission out bag

the result of the coming in of his
present commission, has the prom
ised lowering of fares come to pass?
I ask you to read history.
81 ask you to examine the pres
emit day conditions. You know
mighty well how fiat that promise

Friends, today the fare does not

a more logical promise, a construc-

I'm the matter of highways, too,
the Republican platform comes out
with a clarity that has neve been
exceeded, never been eQualed be-
fore, in asking for open competition
in the matter of road building.
There is no meaningless term about
that. There is an explanation be-
hind it all. 1t seeks to give to the
counties the same rights that the

You see that crumbling under this
new system? I can, because it goes
on to provide and the laws which
fulfill it will provide that where
patented proves the more expensive
of the two kinds it cannot be used,
that the lowest responsible bidder in
the making of highways shall have
that contract. 1t is as great a step
forward as has been taken and
there is no attempted evasion what

gun in the fight for governor in the

publican candidate for governor be-
fore more than six hundred Repub-

of Mayor Frank Hague and Gov
ernor Edwards reviewed the Repub-
lican platform. In referring to the
public utility question he said the
Republican platform spoke in no
uncertain terms.
Continuing on the utility question
the speaker said, The utility pro-

my thought of a political plat
form is essentially a different one.
I believe it is the part of those who
have its forming and its making to
MAXI it conform to the conditions
of the day to make it give as much
as it can of promise and assurance,
not as little, and I have belief that
the platform adopted by the Repub-
lican party yesterday is hat sort Of
a platform. It speaks of big things
and 1t does not speak of them evas-
lively. 1t speaks of things of gen"
era1 moment, of general interest,
and 1t does not try to sidestep. 1t
was p~rophecied that that platform
yesterday would be camoufiaged, that
it would consist of a lot of generic
terms, of glittering generalities with
no essential meaning behind or in
them all. Such was not the case
and I challenge anyone so to charge.

OLD BRIDGE MAN BADLY
INJURED IN fall

OLD BRIDGE, Oct. 5:-Joseph
Martin, a resident of this place,
while riding his bicycle Tuesday
night fell from the wheel and re-
ceived injuries that will confine him
to a New Brunswick hospital for
some time. He is suffering with two
broken ribs, a fractured collarbone
and bruises about the head. He was
riding down the street and when
near the Catholic church fell.
George Slower, who was the first to
reach the man, carried him to his
home nearby and summoned an am
bulauce from New Brunswick.
Marrin was unconscious when
picked up. At the hospital Martin
says he was struck by an automo-
bile but it is said that no machine
had passed at the time. 1t is be-
lieved that the handle-bars of the
wheel became ~loosened, causing the
accident that threw Martin to the
street.

IT. HE value of Tanlac as a fam
L lily medicine is again very
forcibly demonstrated in the home
Of Mrs. Josephine Deckret, 1912
Bank St., Baltimore. After putting
this splendid tonic to the test with
herself and three children, Mrs.
Deckret says:
'Tanlac has been such a great
blessing to myself and three children
that it has won my lifelong praise.
My health had been so wretched for
two or three months that ] was just
dragging around. 1 could neither
eat nor sleep to do much good and
had a world of trouble with indi-
gestion. I have just finished my
third bottle of Tanlac and am almost
a well woman already.
John Frank, aged six, and Caro-
lima, who is four, both complained
of headaches, pains in the stomach
and were very restless at night. They
had no appetites, were thin and pale,
and took no interest in play or any
thing else.
And Joseph Paul, two years old,
vas in just about the same fix. ]
could not get him to eat, he was
fretful day and night, and was very
thin and pale. They have taken
about two bottles of Tanlac each now
and healthier, happier children
could not be found. John Frank
has gained six pounds, Carolina eight
and little Joseph is as fat as a but
terball and playful as a kitten. ]
certainly have good reasons for
praising Tanlac."

family is only typical of thousands
of others whose statements are on
