Th?re are 175 children at the City Home, and they have been using the milk from the diseased cows for several months. The discovery that the cows were suffering from tuberculosis was made quite by accident, and a thorough ex amination of the herd revealed the fact that nearly half of the herd used to supply the home with milk were af« llicttd with the disease. The animals affected were immediately destroyed and the rest of the herd is under ob servation. None of the children at the home have shown my ill-etfeots from the use of the n^ilk from the cows afflicted by the disease. LAW FLEDGELINGS DINE.

JAMES E MARTINE SIDS HE IS BOUND 10 BE II SENATOR •' , - ' '*■>-' '*■„ • I Undaunted by Forty Years of Squelched Aspirations, He Makes Another Effort. • _ _ - ■ »' SAYS HE HAS PEOPLE’S INDORSEMENT FOR OFFICE Declares That the Sentiments of Woodrow Wilson Find Echo in His Soul. [Special to the Newark Star. | TRENTON, Nov. 11.-James E. Mar line, a candidate for Urtited States sen ator, said today that he had no doubt of his election ns a successor to John Kean, by the Democratic majority in the Incoming Legislature. In his characteristically verbose way the “farmer orator" proceeds to show why he expects to be elected because of his activity in public affairs for a period of forty years, during which lie aspired to practically every office from Governor to mayor of his home city, without bjtlng elected to any. Mr. Martine today gave out the fol lowing statement explaining his atti tude with reference to the senatorshlp: “The next session of the New Jersey Legislature will -elect me United States senator to succeed John Kean. In mak ing this declaration 1 am not unmind ful of opinions to the contrary. Hut as 1 have an abiding faith in the honor", intelligence and integrity of the Demo cratic legislators, I feel that there is neither cause for apprehension nor mis givings on my part as to the result. "New Jersey Is about to outer upon an administration of its State govern ment by the Democratic party, which is pledged to the cause of the people. In the instance of the United States senatorshlp the people have spoken, civic Virtue Is In Ascendancy. “I entertain no thought but that my candidacy for the Important office to which I aspire, which has already been submitted to the people and received their approval, will be heartily ac quiesced in by the ’Democratic mem bers of the Legislature. This conclu sion, in my opinion, is justified by po litical truth, logic and expediency. Were the result to be otherwise the Democratic party would be plunged Into a sea of political infidelity, chican ery and double-dealing. I know that civic. Virtue is in the ascendancy by reason of Democratic success at the polls last Tuesday. ‘"As I view the situation, my candi dacy personifies a great prUifiple, a great truth in popular government. At this time 1 believe that important forces of public opinion will be ex pressed in my favor. These influences will be manifested in my behalf on the basis that acquiescence in the results of the direct primary vote, working progressively and harmoniously toward the goal of popular election of United States senators, to which' the New Jer sey Democrats are unequivocally com mitted by their most recent political declarations, transcends any other questions that may lx- raised at this time. Has \|i|irr<-iallou of Rea|mu»lliilltr. "For myself. I may say that I have been fairly active in public affairs in New Jersey for a period covering forty years. 1 have tried always to act in telligently and honestly in the Held of politics. 1 believe that I have a proper appreciation or (lie responsibilities of the great office to which I aspire and in approval of which more than 48,000 Democrats have cast their ballots. De claring their belief in my fitness for the office and in appreciation of my labors for tne. party, the Democratic members of the Legislature three years ago unanimously and voluntarily voted to elect me to the ITnlted States Senate. "Woodrow Wilson, in a post-election comment, declared that ’the present time is a challenge to every man of earnest spirit and no man should allow u narrow and selfish ambition to rule him.’ .May l not say that Mr. \\ iison's declaration expresses at once a convic tion and a hope that crowds itself in upon my own mind. 1 “I do not consider it consistent with the sxiirit of the direct primary law— and certainly contrary to the pro prieties of the occasion—for me to par liciput< in an unseemly^ scramble to secure my election as senator. The people have indorsed me, and my party has declared itself in frtvoi if the principle predicating the law through which tliis indorsement was recorded. 1 reason that this is sufficient. "There will be no attempt on my part to buttonhole members of the Legislature in an effort to persuade them to do that which 1 believe will t be done in accordance with fidelity to political prinefcdes and good govern ment. "The people liave spoken, U is for the Legislature to heed. I am confi dent of the favorable action of every Democrat who will sit in the l.egis lat ure." MISS BIRKENHAUER IS BRIDE OF F. E.
