CITY WILL KILL
UNLICENSED DOGS
City To Enforce Law Against
Tax Evasion

Lambertville-At the Tuesday
evening meeting of the Board of
Commissioners the City Clerk was
instructed to notify William Cole
man, the dog catcher, to kill all
dogs found running on the streets
without license tags. Authority for
this action is in accordance with the
provisions of the Laws of the State
of New Jersey. CLaws of 1916, page
$50, Chapter 74.)
The City has been without dog
catcher for some time until recent
ly, and this has caused a general
evasion of the dog tax law. This
not only deprives the City Treasury
of legitimate income, but the pre-
valence of unlicensed dogs running
loose creates danger where they
are uncomfortable. Warnings have
already been issued that owners
should secure tags for their dogs,
and If they are still delinquent, they
have only themselves to blame if
their dogs are killed.

DR.. Eaton Announces
For Congress

DR.. Charles A. Eaton, of North
Plainfield, Somerset CO., has an
nounced his candidacy for Congress,
and has already started work to Sc
cure the nomination at the Septem-
Der Primaries. DR.. Eaton was elect
ed at the April 22nd Presidential
Primary as alternate delegate to
the Republican Convention at Cleve-
land.
He is the second to enter the
race ON the Republican ticket, VIM.
P. Howe, of Pennington, being the
first. They will oppose DR.. Charles
Browne, of Princeton, who will run
for reelection on the Democratic
ticket. DR.. Browne is now serving
his first term from the Fourth Dis
trict, composed of Hunterdon, Mer-
Ger and Somerset counties.
DR.. Eaton is a man of forceful
personality and high integrity. He
is a staunch supporter of President
Coolidge, and contends that it is
essential for the prosperity and
serenity of the country that Coolidge
be returned to office. He believes
in protective tariff, he says, be-
cause it will benefit the farmers and
workmen and safeguard the invest
ments of the people at large. He en-
dorses the new immigration law
claiming that it benefits the labor
ing classes of the country in keep
ing out cheap foreign labor that
would soon glut the country if it is
kept up.

BEETLE QUARANTINE is
PROGRESSING" LOCALLY

The beetle quarantine at the New
Hope end of the Delaware River
bridge, is progressing satisfactorily
but little opposition being voiced.
Robert Warren, the inspector, has
generally met with a courteous re-
ception, and is trying to make as
little trouble as possible for the peo-
pie whose vehicles have to be in
spected.
Locally, people have not been re-
1uired to remove lettuce from their
picnic lunches, and such absurdities.
Word has been received at points
where such rulings were in effect TO
discontinue it, so that no further
trouble on this score is anticipated.

OTHER BUSINESS TRANSACTED

The Commissioners received
partment of Agriculture Board of
Health, instructing that inspections
must be made of ripe olives being
sold in the city. Many deaths hav-
ing occurred from poisoned ripe
olives, and this action is to prevent
further sales of those that are not
free from the poison. The Commits
sion moved to have thorough in
spection made.
Commissioner Hayhurst made
report on the condition of fire hy-
drants in the city, and recommended
the following alterations and re-
pairs:
Hydrant at Union and Perry
streets to be replaced by new
one.
Hydrant at Main and York streets
to have broken parts replaced and
repaired.
Hydrant at Bridge and Franklin
streets in bad condition, and need
ing general repairs.
There is one hydrant complete
stored at the City Jail, together
with some extra parts. These can
be used for repairs, as well as parts
from the .hydrant to be replaced.

Harlan Fiske Stone, Mr.. Coolidge's
Attorney General, is putting both
ginger and ability into the Depart
ment of Justice, Mr.. Stone is not
a spectacular man. He moves quiet
ly and cautiously but with unfiinch-
ing determination and compelling
force. Without any previous boast
ing or advertising, Mr.. Stone has
brought suit against the Binder
Irvine Trust, charging it with being
monopoly and conspiracy in
restraint of trade. It costs the far
mers of this country $3,000,000 a
year for binder Irvine and nothing
could be more reprehensible than
a conspiracy to compel them to
pay more for this commodity than
is just and right. A long list of
banks and trust companies are also
made defendants in the suit. The
Attorney General paid heed to the
complaints of the farmers that they
were being robbed by the binder
Irvine trust, conducted quiet inves-
tigation and discovered that the
trust was making an annual profit
of $1,800,000 on capital of $780,
600. Then he hailed the members of
the trust into court. Give Mr.. Stone
a little time and he will teach
wealthy law-breakers that they are
as amenable to the law as anyone
else.
Another suit instituted by Attor-
ney General Stone is designed to
break up the fraudulent practice of
importing high grade woods duty
free by wrapping them with carpet
woods which are on the free-list. The
tariff on wool has proved less effec-
tive than was expected. Mr.. Stone
started an investigation to ascer-
tain the cause. Again there was no
blare of trumpets. 1t was all done
very quietly. But now suit has been
entered to forfeit to the United
States an importation of wool val
ued at $1,500,000. There are a num-
Der of technicalities involved but at
least the suit will have the effect
of lettering the smuggling of fine
grade woods by packing them inside
of coarse, duty free grades.

TROUBLE PREDICTED IF PRESIDENT
MUST BE ELECTED BY CONGRESS
GENERAL ON THE TRAIL OF TRUST GRAFTERS
(By Washington Correspondent

Further examination of the con-
stitutional provisions to be invoked
in case the Electoral College fails
to elect a President has revealed
that, as the House now stands, such
failure would be attended with grave
peril. Failure of the Electoral Col
lege to give majority to any can
didate would send the election to the
House. There the members vote by
states and as these are 4S states
25 would be required for majority.
As the House stands-and it is the
present House that would have to
act--there would be 90 Republican
votes, 20 Democratic, and 5 La Fol-
lette votes. This would mean a
deadlock, for no one can imagine
LaFollette releasing his supporters
to vote for either Coolidge or Davis
and the constitution limits the choice
of the House to the three highest
candidates in the Electoral College
which, of course, would be the can
didates named. If the House has
not elected by March 4, the Consti-
tuition provides that the Senate shall
make the choice of vice president
and he shall be President, but its
choice is limited to the two candi-
dates who have received the highest
votes in the Electoral College, who
would be, of course, Dawes and
Bryan. Who would be Chief Execu-
tive while the Senate was making
its choice is question. Some think
Secretary Hughes. Others contend
that he cannot hold over his term.
All of this means chaos and confu-
sion worse COMPOUNDED.
1t is dawning on students of the
political situation that vote for La
Toilette can mean only the defeat
of the will of the people, of the ma
jority vote. If the choice of Presi-
dent were made by the House it
would be the present House, includ-
ing all the lame ducks defeated in
November. As the Representative
can vote only by states a majority
of one might sway state delega-
ton, might compel a Democratic
state which had gone Republican or
vice versa, by the vote of one lame
duck, to vote against the convic-
tions of the majority of the voters
in the State. If the election went
to the Senate it would be the pre-
sent Senate and the Senate would
have no choice save between two
men that no party ever nominated
for President, Dawes and Bryan. A
vote for La Toilette is, therefore,
clearly a vote to defeat the will of
the majority. AS the N. Y. World
Oemocratic) clearly puts it, "The
only result as we see it. of great
success for La Toilette and Wheeler
would be to paralyze the Govern
ment.".
