In the world today two great
series OF events are taking place.
One. in America. is leading toward
peace and prosperity; the other. in
Europe, toward discord and possibly
war.
In our country. two strikes which
threatened to cripple our industries
and leave US without food or fuel
are nearing an end.
One. the strike OF the coal miners
already has been settled. The other,
the strike OF the railway shopmen,
Is partly settled and a general set
tiement seems near.
But in Europe a war between the
Greeks and Turks in Asia Minor Is
threatening TO cause fighting be-
tween the greater European nations.
Miners Working Again.
All union miners in both hard and
soft coal fields struck April l. No
union mines operated thereafter
except here and there in scattered
districts where strikebreakers or
men who did not belong 10 the
union were employed.
Though no coal was mined, we
did not for a time feel the lack OF
IL. This was because we needed
none 10 heat our houses during the
summer. while factories. railways,
steamship lines and other largo coal
users had big reserve supplies on
hand
But with the approach OF fall. the
fuel situation began TO look serious.
Householders wished to lay in win
ter supplies. Reserve stocks OF fac
tories were getting low. Some fac
tories had 10 close down and men
we're thrown out OF work
Then, at a meeting in Cleveland.
the union miners and a large num-
Der of the soft-coal mine owners
reached an agreement and the min
ers went back TO work.
Shortly afterward a similar agree
ment was reached at Philadelphia
between the union miners and oper-
ators OF hard or anthracite coal
mines
Now coal IS being mined in both
fields. but a shortage of freight cars
may bring about a coal famine in
some parts OF the country. Il IS
feared.

Ballot Count i'm

Ends at Station
3 Inspectors Throw Up Task
Before Police Assume
Control; Then Circle ON
Vote Starts Row Anew

The count Of ballots in the 9th Elec-
tion District of the 17th Assembly Dis
trict, "Sam Koenig's own," is proceed
ing, after numerous and furious delays,
in the Fifth Street police station.
Michael Klein, the original chairman
of the Election Board, gave it up about
II o'clock election night, according to
the police, and went home after dis
pute wit hother members Of the board.
Captain Peter Tighe, of the Fifth
Street police station, goth an inspec-
tor named Marks to serve as temporary
chairman. Marks lasted only until 2
a. m. and was succeeded by Max Fuchs.
The reign Of Max was short and
stormy. At p. M, according to the
police, he announced his abdicstion and
successor. When arguments and the
presence of reserves from the police
station failed to impress him, Captain
Tighe ordered Fuchs arrested and inn
pounded the ballots and records and
took them to the police station.
At that time the count had pro-
gressed as far as the Assembly and
showed Max Weinfeld, Democratic
candidate, leading his opponent, Sol
Ullman, by eighty votes, while returns
form the rest Of the Assembly district
gave Ullman lead Of seven. Magis-
trate Renaud discharged Fuchs when
he was arraigned in Essex Market po-
lice court, and by direction of John R.
Voorhis, chairman Of the Board Of
Elections, MIR. Koenig and Lester
Lazarus, the Democratic leader, got
together on the problem.
Each designated three men to repre-
sent him on the board and the count
went on without bloodshed in the po-
lice station until II o'clock last night.
Then ballot turned up which was
marked with circle instead of with
cross.
The representatives Of Mr.. Koenig
said it was void ballot. The repre-
sentatives of Mr.. Lazarus declared it
to be protested ballot" In mo-
ment the. fight was on. In desperation
Captain Tighe called up Deputy Chief
Inspector Cahalane. Unable to enforce
peace, he called upon Chairman Voor-
his again. The chairman decided that
the ballot should be put aside for a
ruling to-day by the Board Of Elections
and that the count must 60 on.

That the Anti-Saloon League in

that Governor Edwards may serve our
state WE'LL" he said yesterday, "and
that he may maintain New Jersey in

Friends of Governor Edwards we're
talking 1924" yesterday. They affect
to see in the new Senator the logical
leader of the beer-and- wine party in
the nation, and they figure that he will
get support from all parties on the
strength of his fight for the wet cause.
Already he Is being considered as a
possibility for the Democratic nomina-
tion for President.
Two other proposals voted upon by
the people yesterday through the ref
crendum appear TO have been defeated.
The $40,000,000 good roads bond issue
apparently has been defeated by a
small majority. In Atlantic County a
suggestion to transfer the county seat
from Mays Landing to Atlantic City
was thrown out by 5000 votes. The
citizens of Hamilton Township, where
Mays Landing is situated, stood by
their community manfully. Of S37
votes cast 837 were counted against the
proposed shift.
