GREAT REPUBLICAN,
VICTORY.

There was q graat Republican land
slidein Monmouth County on Tuesday
and indications point to the election
of L. Frank Appleby for Congress
who was carried along with the Cool
idge tide and carried all three counties.
McDermott, Bruno, Dodd, Newcomb
and Polhemus were reelected by over
|whelming majorities.
McDermo majority over Miller was
about $4,000.
With but three districts missing
Coolidge and Dawes polled 81, 10 as
against 1887 for the Davis-Bryan
ticket and 2,045 for the LaFollette-
Wheeler ticket.
Senator Edge led Mayor Donnelly
of Trenton 30,513 to 15,967 Record
polled but 726.
Appleby led Geran 2s, 1888 to 10, $50 in
the county and 81, 568 to 1874 in this
and Middiesex counties.
Bruno and Dodd, with 1884 and
80, 273 respectively. led TenBroeck and
Warwick, who poiled 1896 and 1898
respectively.
McDermott. with 34,554, led Miller,
who polled 1850.
Newcombe and Polhemus. with 49,
051 and 20, 1872 respectively, led White
and Jeffries, with 17.06S and 1912
Appleby Margin Grows.
Appleby's victory over Geran,
which had appeared earlier in the
morning to be 10000 affair, grew
rapidly when Mikdlesex county re-
turns became known. New Brunswick
awarded him tremendous majorities,
while South and Perth Amboy did
likewise. Returns in Ocean county
were incomplete, but indicated 5000
majority could be looked for.
Coolidge carried virtually every
voring district in the county, but a
few scattered places denying him a
majority. When the first 70 distrits
had reported Coolidge had lost just
one, that in Long Branch. In some
districts he was the lone Republican
to survive Coolidge sentiment was
overwhelming and convincing. Even
in Democratic strongholds "Silent Cal''
went ahead with paradoxical
roar.
Edge Two to One.
Edge carried Monmouth county at
better than two to one clip and
came home under wraps. The first
rs districts had placed him In COM
manding position.

a gain of 12036. The following week

announced that 16,l05 guests had
been entertained up to and including
July %, 1924, against 1897 for the

view of the general decrease in Pa

year, these records are remarkable,
|, aud a magnificent tribute to the
ever growing popularity of Yose

This is Camp Currp's twenty sixth

. seven tents, it has grown to a huge
establishment of 500 tents and 100

Quite Different

In these days when the words
"Forest Fires - occupy the headlines
of most papers, serious error fre-
quently occurs which interferes with
the well laid plans of many vaca-
tionists.
The journalist in many instances
fails to divorce the National Park
Service, operating under the De
partment of the Interior, from the
United States Forest Service, direct
ed by the Department of Agricul-
ture. In 1915 healthy youngster
was born when Congress created the
National Park Service to protect
for all times the natural beauties TO
be found in the widely scattered ma
tional reserves throughout the Unit
ed States. This simple definition
of its aims stands for the most part
in contradiction to the objection of
the United States Forest Service.
which permits the cutting of Gov
ernment timber under certain con
diti0ns, mining, and other industrial
enterprises on Government lands, as
sheep raising and cattle grazing
Reports stating that the Forest
Service intended to close the Ma
tional Parks in California, owing
to forest fires, are ridiculous, First
because the National Parks are not
under the jurisdiction of the Forest
Service, and second, the Park lands
have been remarkably free from
serious forest fires this pear.
In Yosemite National Park there
has been less fire than ever pre-
viously known. At present there are
no fires in Yosemite National Park
or vicinity. All roads leading to
the Park are open. Travel contin-
ues normal, although many persons
have been unfortunately misled by
the confusion existing concerning
the differences between National
Park and National Forest.
