his Joli, onstliiK many shovelfuls of dirt
Into Hip holo around the root of the
tree. pansltiK at Intervals with phnvrl
suspended while the camera men took
duo advnntaRe.
While definite tinmen on the vote, re

ing Indication are that Kord as well
as Kr.ink Monnett, peniocrnllc Vice
rrcsldentl.il mndld.tp, a Brynn follower,
fell behind Itnivevclt. Ford atl Ilnosc
Vtll wcro not entered as candidate In
the primary and voters had to write their
names on the ballots.
Mrs. Wilson, who came to the scene
of tho ceremony at Nassau. Stockton and
Mercer streets In a motor car, did not
leave tho machine because of occasional
howers. She stood up In the car and
laughed merrily as tho l'resldent stabbed
away at tho thick .Tersey mud, which he
was supposed to pack nround the tree
roots.
About 400 persons watched the scene
Und Rao Mr. Wilson a rousdiiK cheer
When he surrendered his shovel to nn
attendant.
Incidental to his tree planting efforts
the 1'rcsldcnt had the pleasuro of look
ing: on while Ciov. Klelder planted un
other elm In Sir. Wilson's honor and of
bearing a complimentary address In
Jlrhlch he was called a second Lincoln.
The President was slven n warm re
ception when ho reached Princeton. Oov.
Fielder, topether with Col. Llbbey of the
National Guard and Col. Taylor and Dr.
Charles Hrowtie, Mayor of Trlnceton,
were on the platform to greet him,
backed by n company of the Princeton
National Guardsmen and a squad of Hoy
Bcouts,
Casta Ilallot -Vo, 1.
Flanked by Oov. Klelder and Mayor
Browne, the 1'resldent walked up through
the archway of Ulalr Hall, ncross the
campus and along Nassau street to the
engine house of the Mercer Volunteer
FJre Company No. 3, In Chambers street,
where he has voti-d ever since he be
came Governor of New Jersey, He ar
rived at the polling station Just two
minutes ahead oft time and waited for
the primary opening until 1 P. M.. greet
ing tho Judge of election nnd the clerks
in his usual fashion. He was given
Democratic ballot number one, being the
first person to vote ; dropped it in the
box and hurried away to tho scene of
the tree planting.
In voting, the President actually enst
a ballot for his own nomination, as the
candidates for the post of delegate to
the Democratic national convention from
this district are pledged to support him
as the party's choice for President In
the approaching campaign.
After the double tree planting was
over "Gov. Klelder Introduced the Pn'
dent, who stepped forward and ald:
"1 can say without a touch of affec
tation that .1 was ,i profound surprise to
me to lit.d that I was expected to make
a speech. I don't know why it is that
Princeton I the one place In the entire
Union where I cannot make a speech.
I have tried, many times, not always
nt the request of my fellow citizens, but
have never succeeded to my own satis
faction. I hae never had a tree planted
In my honor before "
Tho crowd laughed In response and
cheered vigorously.
"I shall watch !M growth carefully,
but,' and he tmll. 1 again, "I do not
promise to let my own fortunes depend
on tho progrcm of this tree.
Ills Tribute to Lincoln.
"Certainly this is an Interesting cere
mony and ho Idea of the Lincoln
Highway marks an epoch in a way. It
used to bi said In the old days "when
sections of our country weru divided
by ill feeling, which are now happily
reunited, that sectional lines could be
abolished only by those whoso feet ac
tually crossed tlum. May this great
highway wlp out even tho thought
of sectional lines in this great country
of ours.
"Charles Lamb onco said that he
could never hate a man If he knew
him. I have often found it dlllicult to
hate Mime very nrrant rascals because
I knew them well and felt their charm
of personality. It Is a constant light
between the Judgment and the affections.
'Now this Lincoln Highway, to Justify Its
name, should unite the nation through
the association uf these two Ideas. Kor
Lincoln was tho great humanitarian,
wonderfully nnd profoundly versed In
knowledge of man and of life. No more
appropriate namo could have been
chosen for that great artery than that
of tho martyred President, who so
understood his fellowmen."
Mrs. Willlum M. Wauters, chairman
of the conservation department of tho
State Federation of Women's Clubs,
opened tho tree planting ceremonies
with a description of the way the Lin
coln Highway was conceived nnd of
now It was peing carried to completion.
Other speakers were Mrs. Charles W.
Stockton, president of the federated
clubs, nnd Dr. Calvin N, Kendall. State
Commissioner of Kducatlon, who also
planted a tree presented by tho Hoy
Scouts In memory of Horace Mann.
The tree, typical of Lincoln's charac
ter, planted in memory of the Great
emancipator was given by tho Athena
Club of Ilayonne. N. J while the

said yesterday that national headquar

Presidential campaign will bo In tho
Korty-Hicond Stieet Hulldlng, It has
been reportid recently that tho head
quarters of some Wilson organization
would have rooniH In this building, anil
this report was naturally connected with
the fact that .Mr. .Morgeuthau'o olllccs

Mr. Morficnthau said yesterday that
six rooms on the second Hour of tho
Duiming mi iieen rented ami mat nn
ofllco forco will be Installed thcro soon,
thus avoiding tho mistake made four
years ago when there was mueii delay In
obtaining sultablo quarters.
Tho fact that Krcderlck H. Lynch,
national committeeman from Minnesota
and present chairman of thn executive
campaign committee, approved of tho
selection lends further support to the
snerally believed report that President
Wilson has fixed uikiii Mr. Lynch iih the

Never In their history did the. political
organizations of the two major parties
have an easier time In putting over thtlr
slate than at the Presidential primaries,
it which delegates were chosen by the
direct B.vstem to the national convcnlon,
i esterday.
Outside of Hudson nnd Kssex counties,
the storm centres because of local fac
tional fights having no direct touring
upon the main question at stake, thi'prl-
m.irlcH were maiked by tho utmost In-
dliTcrcnco of voter. In some precincts
less than to tier cent, of the total vote
was polled and oven with the Interest
of local contests It Is believed the vote
In the State at largo will not exceed j
3S per cent, of tho total. i
Tho llemibltcan delegates at large
elected without opposition were Chair-
man, .Newton A. K. nugtiec or the un-
publican State committee: Ira A. Kip,
Jr., a New York broker living In Kaet
Orange; Hamilton 1. Konn of Elizabeth,
and David Ilalrd of Camden.

In the Kleventh and Twelfth Congress
districts (Hudson county) the Repub

so-called verdonltes, followers of Will
la,m P. Verdon of Hnbnken. tho or-
g.inlzatlon leader, and llepubllcans who candidates unpledgel nnd antl-organlza-sought
to unhorse Verdon as the county Hon pledged to Hoosevelt, and the organ

the organized fight, fostered by Demo
crats, that was waged against him. In
many sections the Governor led tho

Kx-Govcrnors Cox nnd Harmon appear
to be running a tight raco for leadership
of the Democratic delegates. In some
sections Mr. Harmon Is leading, and In
others Mr. Cox Is at the head of the
list.
Senator Pomerene Is running behind
both of them and probably will finish
fourth In the race, being outdistanced
by ex-Governor Campbell.

probably not more than 5 per cent, of

Klse why did Full Moon and Mountain

many others, persist In clustering around
her. Only half an eye was enough with
which to perceive that they did not, like

The American Surety Building, comer of
Broadway and Pine Street, is located in the
heart of the financial district. With its
annex, it has two entrances on Broadway, two
on Pine Street and one on Wall Street.
The street address, "100 Broadway," is
thoroughly distinctive. The American Surety
Building is perhaps as widely known as any
office building in the United States. The
picture of this building is our advertising
emblem. It appears on correspondence,
blanks and advertising literature going out in
large quantities daily from our Home Office,
40 branches and over 13.000 Agencies.
This modern office building, with Ionic
portico entrance, and with elegant marble
and mahogany finish, was designed by the
late Bruce Price. It is one of the most beauti
ful structures of its kind in the city.
Offices in this building have unobstructed
light and air, and arc peculiarly adanted to

We Thought of You
When we bought that hat, or
suit, or scarf, we had you in
mind.
"Would It please you.'" we
asked ourselves.
Then our advertisement told
you about It, interestingly
(we hope), truthfully (we
know).
And when you purchased it.
you just knew that it would
make good or WE would.
Perhaps that is wliy you have
been coming again - and
again.
