Enumerntcs His Charges.

That. the candidate asserted. was the
real issue. Then he advanced thcsa
propositions:
l. That Gov. Miller in the first
year OF his term deliberately and for
purposes Of party patronage destroyed
a nom partisan. well conceived and
thoroughly accepted plan for a funda-
mental reorganization OF the States
government.
2. That TO cloud the effect Of the
demonstration OF the truth of this
charge against him he has raised a
hue and cry of the effecting of econ
omies without such radical rcorgan-
ization and that this claim in any
essential sense is false. even though
one accepted his claim that he had
pared away a comparatively small
amount of expenditure and
g. That in the assertion Of his claim
that he pared away even this COM

be demonstrated TO be tricllery and

SEES EVASIVE JUGGLING
YOnkerS Crowd Hears Fraudu-
lent Bookkeeping in AL
bany Fools People.

Alfred E. Smith charged last eve-
ming in his opening speech Of the cam
paign in Yonkers that the Republican
cry of economy is a smoke screen to
hide "the greater ISSUE" and the one
on which he will make his appeal for
election.
And that issue, the Democratic
nominee declared, is the "wrongdoing
Of Gov. Miller" which is bringing
about the destruction OF the work
of the State for seven years to effect
a constitutional reorganization of the
State government, which in itself
would make far greater economy than
any patching can bring about. The
Governor rejected all that had been
done on a promise of accomplishing
results his way, and that has not been
done, NJ. Smith charged.
Gov. Miller's economies are sham,
not honestly presented to the public,
and. in fact, based upon fraudulent
bookkeeping. Mr.. Smith declared. He
also charged the Governor with trick
cry and evasion.
Starts without Wasting Time.
In his old fighting trim. Mr.. Smith
plunged into the campaign without
wasting time when he brushed aside the
issues being presented by the Republi-
cans and brought to the front "the
greater issue" He was aggressive and
took the offensive. The meeting was
held by the Westchester county democ-
racy in Phillipsburg Hall Mayor Walter
NJ. Tausis presided. Mayor George Lunr
Of Schenectady and others spoke. The
attendance was large and enthusiastic.
Whether Gov. Miller or l spent a
little more or little less money is sub
ordinate to a bigger issue. What is
significant, IL il can be established. as
it can be, is that the whole cry Of
economy was raised by Gov Miller as a
smoke screen to hide a perfectly patent
wrongdoing in bringing to utter destruc-
ton the work of the leading men of this
State, both Republican and Democratic.

NEW BRUNSWICK, n. j., Oct 1O.--To-
night four persons are in Jail in con-
nection, mostly indirect, with the Hall
Mills murder mystery and the mystery
is as deep as ever and apparently as
far from solution. Yet Azariah NJ
Beekman, prosecutor of Somerset
county, and his colleague, Joseph E.
Strickler of Middlesex county, appear
wholly satisfied with developments,
while Detective George Totten, the
first man to go to work on the case
three weeks ago last Saturday, de-
c.ared this afternoon: 1--WE are Just
beginning to work on this case"
Information will reach the two pros
ecutors Tomorrow that on the day the
bodies were found. September 16, there
also was found in a gully about 125
feet from the place where the bodies
lay chip basket containing articles OF
bloody clothing. Four persons are
understood to have seen this basl,et
and its contents, but they refuse TO
come forward for fear of being con-
nected with the crime. What the con-
tents actually were and where the
basket was taken are points that the
prosecutor is expected to ascertain.
Clifford Hayes, the boy possessor OF
% caliber single shot pistol, still re-
mains the only person charged with
murder. His accuser, Raymond
Schneider, is in the same jail-7that at
Somerville-held as a material wit
ness. The two newcomers into Beck

teen-year-old girl Schneider was IN

UNWRITTEN LAW
 FREES MURDERER
Jury, Sworn to Be UnsWayedf by Sym pathy, Finds Man, Who killed
 Friend, Not Guilty.

New York, May 5--Human nature triumphed over "the letter of the law in the acouittal before Judge Man cuso in General Sessions yesterday of Carl Veith, who, avenging an attack upon his aged mother by a former friend, killed her assaiant and then freely, lowering neither head nor eye, admitted it.
 Tn the eyes of the law" Assistant District Attorney Brothers told the jury, "Veith has committed deliher- ate, cold -blooded and premeditated murder"
 Put yourself in his place." pleaded James A Hurley, the defendant S counsel 'Is there any one among you who could have remained calm and sane after gazing upon that fra1l form, bruised and bleeding from the blows of a man to whom you had given food, shelter and employment?'
 And the jury, sworn to reach Its verdict unswayed by sympathy and guided only by the law and the evi- dence, answered both prosecution and defense in two short words-not guilty-which restored to Neith the freedom he lost twenty-siX days ago, when, with an old army pistol taken from the wall of his mothers home, he killed William Doyle in front of No. East Broadway.

Secret of a Good Disposition

A woman who carefully safeguards her health benefits her disposition. She will be happy and attractive to all. The world unfortunately is filled with sweet women who are un- happy because they are held back from usefulness by troubles so com mon among them. Fretfulness and nervousness rapidly destroy good dis positions. Sckly, all-worn-out wom- en cannot make happy homes.
 Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is a safeguard of women's health. This is clearly proven by the many letters we are continually publishing in this paper from wom- en who have been restored to health and happiness byit s use after years of suffering. Why don't you try it?

ELECTRIC TROLLEY
 BUSINESS BETTER
Improvement Seen to be Steadily
 Increasing in Countries

New York, May S.--The earnings of electric trolley lines, an industry S4 years old today. are improving stead fly in cities but the interurhan lines of the country have not yet felt the upward swing, according to q state ment issued by Robert l, Todd, presi- dent of the American Electric Rail way association,
 His statement is based on the re- ised operating returns from so com panies representing more than b0 per cent of the total lines of the country, Of the number, l03 are city and 77 internrban and their total op- erating revenue for 1921 was s4S7,- 493, S53 as compared with S650,14o,- So5 for the entire industry in 1917.
 Reports Read
 ''The improvement is not due to any growth in the amount of business done" said Nr. Todd, "hecause the actual volume of business shows a slight decrease over 1920. Improved operating conditions however. have helped finance.
 ''The outstanding feature of the re- ports is the increase in net income In 1921 it was s22,o22.722 as compar- ed to s7.7o9,261 in 1920. Tn the face of a business depression, with unem- ployment at q maximum, this income figure is remarkable.
 At the same time, however, traf- fc on the lines fell. In 1920 it was 7,606, ,1a0, 270 and in 1921, 7,144,332,- 920, a decrease of 6.1 per cent. The operating ratio, that it, the operating expenses divided by operating revenue dropped from 7S.4 percent in 1920 to 752 per cent in 1921, the source of the good showing and it's bright prom ise for the future. That is helped by the reduction in labor and materials cost
 Operating Costs
 '"The net operating revenue increas- ed from s93,9l6,654 to Sl0S,3l ,732 or 155 per cent. A $14,000,000 increase gives a greatly increased purchasing | power and the results should soon be seen in equipment and better credit | which has been almost al its lowest | point in the last five years.
 The interurban lines, while they | have not shown the actual improve | ment of the city lines, are producing | hopeful signs. They have decreased 1 operating expense. and with return to more normal business to which | they must look for both freight and | passenger increases, their outlook is frightened.
 Tt is interesting to note that one fourth of all passengers riding on the 1SO lines under consideration used transfers slight increase over 1920
 The first overhead trolley line run by electricity was perfected in Rich mond, Va, on May 4, 1888. It was a double tracked line with 30 cars in operation, built by Frank J, $. Sprague still resident of New York. Today there are 44,00o miles of tracks used by 15,0oo,Oo0, ,o00 persons year.
