empty direct or. the biti'h yet ’here
must be a limit to the extent of this
pollution. The fact that the dead ftah
cover the benches ali along Raritan
bay a* far as Sandy Hook and are
washed ashore even at the cou*t resort*
along the ocean ought to eliminate the
Perth Amboy Industries as the sole
cause of all tho trouble. Surely the
whole of Raritan bay all the way to
'Bandy Hook cannot be polluted by the
discharge from the factories of this
vicinity, not to mention the whole
Atlantic ocean.
The most logical explanation yet
heard Is that arid from some govern
ment munition plants, either because
of leaking tanks or because the stuff
is no longer of any use, has been
dumped overboard either down tho
bay or just outside Sandy Hook.
It is significant that inossbunkers
are almost the only kind of fish affect
ed. Eels, flounders, spots or lafay
ettes, although they aro known to
abound In the bay, are only occasion
ally found among the dead. Neither
are there any shell fish among those
killed. One explanation given for this
Is the fact that tho mossbunker Is a
surface fish while the others are found
much deeper. The mossbunker swims
usually within a few Inches of the
eurface, sometimes tho fins can bo
Been sticking out of tho water. The
Idea Is that the oily acid when dumped
VVcruutuu luiiiva me
xnoMbunkera swim leaving the water
below where the other fish aro to be
found, comparatively clear.
Whatever the cause may be some
means ought to be found to put a
•top to it. Dead fl9h rotting by
thousands on the beaches Is not only
extremely unpleasant at just a time
when people wont to enjoy tho
beaches, but they cannot help but bo
detrimental to health. Tho authorities
In the various municipalities affected
ought not to Ignore the situation.
MT.MTIONS IN THE SOI ND.
Mayor Dorsey Is right In recom
mending that the city oppose permls
elon being granted to tow vessels load
ed with explosives through Staten
Jsland sound. There Is a vast amount
1 ct tonnage passing through tho sound;
the waterway is narrow and extreme
ly crooked. The danger of collision
with other boats Is great. We are
already taking grave chances In
having the explosives towed down tho
river and through tho two draw
bridges without adding to tho danger
along the whole Staten Island sound
Waterfront. Besides there are tho
Sickly settled communities of Eliza
beth and Bayonne to be considered ns
well ns on Staten Island.
The long tows of coal barges from
South Amboy, this city and Tort
Beading use the Staten Island sound
route and these tows swinging with
the tido making the many turns In
the channel of the narrow waterway
might easily bump against some of the
vessels loaded with munitions causing
an explosion that would be a duplicate
©f tho Halifax disaster. Ships loaded
with explosives ought to be kept out of
Staten Island Sound.
FOR COMFORT STATION.
Trenton is about to open a comfort
etattone In that city which, in a
measure, provides for its own support.
yin old building on one of the proml*
rent streets Is being renovated t®
provide every convenience and at the
same time space will be allotted for
certain privileges such as barber shop,
shoe shining parlor and other busi
ness in that line. From the revenu®
thus obtained much of the expense of
maintaining the place is met and a
^re-taker is always on hand. This
plan is much more economical than
excavating under a street. It ought
to be readily adopted here.

Five Minutes A Day
With Our Presidents
By JAMES MORGAN.
P-- ■■ a
The Man Who Waited II '* Turn
William McKinley challenged und
disproved the old saying that the
Presidency casts its shadow on no man
but once and that if the chance be
missed then it will never come again.
Twice the Republican nomination
seemed to be within McKinley's reach
—in the National Conventions of ItiS*
and 1892. Each time he put it away,
content to wait his proper turn, when
he did not have to shake the tree to
bring down tha ripened fruit of his
patience.
The truth is not well enough under
mood that this greatest of political
prises is not to be won by unbashfui
wooing. In reality, our highest office
oftener has sought the man. Seldom
is it captured by those who seek it
most—as for example. Clay. Webster.
Cass. Douglas. Seward. Blaine. Shoj
tnan. Bryan.

That cause was so McKinley mete
then a mere partisan dogma- As the
son of a small foundry-main In Ohio,
he was born to-an "infant Industry."
and he wtvs brought up on it. Not
unlikely the destined apostle of pro
tection carried the dinner-pail from
which his hard-working parent ate
his mid-day meal, seated on a heap of
pig-iron at the (turning door of a
blast furnace. And when the boy's
Schooling was brought to an end by
the "hard timea" In the iron busi
ness. doubtless he heard the men in
his father’s trade charge all their
troubles to the low tariff of 1857.
After teaching school a term or so.
McKinley wag called away from Ixjoks
to pass four years in the Civil 'War.
that hard university which graduated
the men who were to lead the Nation
through four decade*. Having gono
into the Army as a prlvato tn the regi
ment of another I’resident-to-be—
ltutherford B. Hayes—ho came out
at 22 a captain, with the brevet title
of major.
Becoming a lawyer at Canton, O.,
again ho found himself in tho midst
of Industries in their struggling in
fancy. And for fourteen years he was
ihe spokesman tn Congress of that
industrial district.
Tho young major, when ho came
to Canton, was a clean-cut, up-stand
ing figure, genial In his nature but
with a sobeg dignity. His readiness
of speech, when on his feet, came
from his practice of the art In the
debating societies of his school days.
His habits also had been properly
formed In his boyhood, when he join
ed tho Methodist Church at 10 and
grew up a youth who was as care
ful to keep his tongue as his collar
clean.
All doors i ntho little town naturally
swung open with a welcome to "such
a nice young man," and n major to
uoui, .-uuiiHiKn ue was
when Ida Saxton, the banker’s daugh
ter, 'who had been to school dn New
York City and who had just come
back from Europe, smiled yce to him,
while they were ’’taking a buggy ride”
the banker smiled, too and made
them a wedding gift of one of the
beet houses dn Canton. It was from
the front noreh of that honeymoon
dwelling that McKinley made his
campaign for the Presidency In 1896.
McKinley's Is one of tho best—nnd
one of tho most pathetic—love stories
in tho domestic records of the Presi
dency. WHth the birth of her second
child the wife was left an Invalid. Tlis
death of bothofheroh ldr 1 SlIRDEK
death of both of her children within
live years of lior wedding day utterly
overwhelmed her nervous organiza
tion. and her shattered health re
mained thenceforth the constant ob
ject of her husband’s tender rare.
Although he never could know from
minute to minute when she would
pass Into a swoon, ho made her h'.s
companion on his travels. Once when
ho hurried home from Congress, and
the physician had given up hope
of saving her, his own ministrations
and his prayers through a long night
at her bedside recalled her to life.
Tho people of Columbus are eye
witnesses that while he was Governor
—after his defeat for Congress—he
never entered the State Capitol of a
morning without turning to lift his hat
in a smiling farewell to Mrs. McKin
ley In her hotel window across the
street. By tho same testimony, he
sprang from his chair on the stroke
of three every afternoon, no matter
liow weighty the business in hand
nor how many might he in conference
with him, and stepped to a window
of the Executive Chamber, where he
waved Ills handkerchief 4n greeting
to the watching wife.
Tho samp sentimental devotion con
tinued lu tho White House, where the
President was always quick to re
spond to every- summons from Mrs.
McKinley’s apartments, carefully and
cheerfully deciding perhaps a selec
tion of ribbons w-hllo ho kept the
Cabinet or a crowd of Senators wait
ing In his office. All this patience,
kindness and uneeiflshons# of the hus
band brought their reward to the
political leader, playing a part in
making McKinley one of the few
Presidents who have borne the trials
of that most tryihg office without
losing their temper.
George Street Itoad
•Editor EVENING NEWS:
Bear Sir:
Could I take a short space in your
valoable paper to try and interest tho
people of your city In a matter our
eity has ben unable to carry through?
The freeholders of Middlesex county
uu nut want t.u repair mo roaa Known
as upper George street. This means
hut little to persons not familiar with
the locality. This upper Ucorgo
street extends for a mile directly on
the bank of the Delaware and Rari
tan canal. Seven and eight feet
above the water and only a foot or
two from a steep bank. The road
was macadam but Is now full of deep
holes and ruts. There is no protect
ing rail or wall along the canal bank,
A broken axle, punctured tire, de
ranged steering gear or almost any
of the many things that may happen
would have every chance of throwing
a car In from stx to nine feot of
water and mud. Occupants of a
closed car would not huve one chance
In a million. This is not a main
highway and the traffic is not heavy
and the uuery naturally Is how Is
Perth Amboy or the rest of Middlesex
specially Interested. Persons know
ing Its danger should avoid It. Yet
tho other day the Albany street bridge
draw refusod to close and the whole
tremendous traffic was sent all night
through this trap without any warn
ing whatever to the landing bridge
to cross the canal and river. It seems
only • question of time when a serious
accident must happen and then the
public wttl wake up. Soma citlsen of
Perth Amboy or New Brunswick and
maybe hto whole family drowned Uke
-at* in a trap. The oar *1 company
••h on I (i I,* forced to put a wall or
strong guard rail along tht» hank and
the road repaired If possible-—but the
rail or wall should he insisted upon.
The plAce Is lonely has but a few
houses »t the upper end and the
chances of help would be very meager.
I believe you would be doing a
great favor to our citizens of this
county by calling attention to this
condition. Thanking you I am yours
truly.

The Story of Sixteen
G. 0. P. Conventions
By A. H VANDKNBERO _|
l'tmmsulli Convention
The fourteenth Republican National
Vmventlon again went to Chicago and
let June 16. 1908. Roosevelt had
nnounced to the country on the night
f his election in November, 190 i that
e would, not be a candidate to suc
eed himself. Theoretically, this left
n open Ileld.
But actually, the fact that FreM
ent Roosevelt favored his Secretary
f War for tho succession, gave Wh
om Howard Taft of Ohio a vantage
ihlch presaged the Inevitable result,
'his assurance was in no degree lea
rned by the fact that Frank H.
Ittcheoek undertook the management
f Taft's campaign.
Senator Julius C. Burrows of Mich
{an was temporary chairman, and
en&tor Henry Cabot Lodge of Mas
tchuseita was permanent chairman,
a tho midst of Lodge's address, elo
uent reference to Roosevelt started
demonstration which lasted the
tester part of an hour, undoubtedly
ltended to stampede tho Convention
i his favor.
But one roll call ultimately sufficed
o settle tho Issue, for on that roll
all Taft received 702 out of a total
f 979. His nearest competitors were
enator Knox of Pennsylvania, with
8; Governor Hughes of Now York,
rith 07, and Speaker Cannon, with
8. Fairbanks received 40 votes; Sen
dor Foraker of Ohio, 16; Senator
.aFolet to of Wisconsin, 2 5 and
toosevelt, 3.
The vice-Presidency was likewise
ettled on a single ballot, when Con
ressman James S. Sherman of New
fork received 816 votes; his only
ppreciablo competitors being Frank
in Murphy of New Jersey, with 77,
.ud Curtis Guild of Massachusetts,
.1th 75.
One of the interesting features of
his Convention was a refusal, by a
oto of 471 to 506, to reduce the
epresentatlon of Southern Democrat
ic states in future nonventinns urn
lortionately increasing that of Kepub- j
wan staes In the north.
Tho platform was a lengthy affair
vhlch sounded new notes In relation
o a new and more elastic currency
lystem, the establishment of postal
avings banks, the limitations on the
•iuanco of the writ of injunction, and
Uo admission of New Mexico and
irlzona as separate states in tho
.’nion.
Minority attempts to amend the
ilatform were uniformly unsuoccss
ul. Typical of this was the C'onven
ion’s refusal, by a vote of 114 to 866,
o declare for the election of United
States Senators by direct vote.

What Will It Cost Me?
In these hectic days of vaulting costs, increased
wages, higher and still higher prices, naturally the ques
tion arises in one’s mind, what will this Trust Service
cost met
Our answer is reassuring. In every single case, our
services as Trustee, as Executor, as Administrator, as
Guardian, as Agent, will not cost more than you would
pay an individual so acting. In nine times out of ten,
our services rendered will cost you less than an individu
al’s because of the efficiency and economy a corporation
can bring to bear on these problems. Further, bear in
mind that our charges cannot be collected unless the Pro
bate Court passes on them and rules them just and equit
able.
We urge the thinking business man, the careful fath
er, the pliilanthropieally inclined man of means, the so
ciety that has property to care for, the corporation that
may issue bonds, to consult us, either by letter or per
sonal interview, concerning our Trust service. Sueh con
sultation will be without charge and most cheerfully
given. J
