THE CHANCE IN NEW JERSEY The republicans In' the little state of New Jersey have troubles of their own and the everyday routine of Gov. Fort, whether at the state house In Trenton : o- at his beautiful country home In Hast Orange, Is no bed of American beauty roses. Added to his consider able disappointment in the matter of the vice-presidency, which was, no doubt, a possibility for him if he should succeed in delivering his state to Taft, there have come recently hot squab ble with the 'legislature and with cer tain political men of prominence In his own party, particularly from the southern part of the state, where, la-t November, was fought the haide t tounds of the battle that made John ; Franklin Fo;t governor instead of . Frank S. Kateenbaoh.- ; - . The burning issue last year In Jer- pl- was the excise question and thJ strong undercurrent of sentiment in both parties for a freer Sunday and the repeal of the bishop's law, und.-r yhich many of the smaller cities anj 'towns in the state had been getting, and still get, a bluer Sunday, almost, than the state had in the pretty strict old colonial days. The democrats con tended for a more liberal Sunday and thJ populous upstate counties of Essex and Hudson, ordinarily republican strongholds, went democratic on that issue and no other, while the repub licans promised a modification of the Sunday laws and the opening of res taurants and soda and ice cream par lors, if nothing more. In the smaller places, where there had been th tight est kind of a lid ever seen in Jersey or ar.v other state since Puritanism died. : Gov. Fort, a man of pretty stiff con science when It comes to the keeping of election pledges, has urged upon the legislature the demand for immediate action, 1ft compliance with the promises of the party's spellbinders that went so far toward making Fort governor In the face of an existing slate of things that the bulk of Jerseymen did not really want, whatever may have been the public pretentions of the blue Sun day - element In the - governor's own party; but the senate and house, for soma unexplained notion, has not -pro ceeded to' this with enough .; alacrity to satisfy .the governor. Rumors round about Trenton are to the effect that this inaction of the two bodies Is but part f a general scheme of the party machinists, particularly one very active oiler. In a .southern county, to bother and tie up the governor as punish ment for the activity he displayed in ' "behalf of Taft and for the effrontery the chief executive has shown In pre. 'sujnlng.to take unto himself a pet can didate for the presidential nomlnat'on. ' New Jersey, under the conditions that prevail today, is by no means to be counted, safe and certain ground for Taft or for any other man the Chicago .convention "may nominate. Gov. Fori .was elected by less than 10,000. He Is not so strong today as he was. the . Tuesday after the first Monday In No- 'vember. New Jersey has been rated, i except In the two McKlnley years, as a doubtful state. Cleveland always car. rled It. There Is reason to believe, es- peclally If republican dissensions con tinue and Secretary Taft falls to get a more cordial reception than he got the ilnmorratlr. vnt and. secure. beside. a lg00d gMce of the dlsglmtled republican vote In a state that hi twelve votes la the electoral college. Some man like Minnesota's Gov. Johnson has, we are persuaded, a chance to put that blo;k 1 of twelve In Its old place In the dem ocratic column. OH, SPRINKLE THE STREETS. Complaints continue to be heard o:i every hand about the dusty condition of Raleigh's streets and the great clouds of real estate that Jump In'.o the air, and likewise into people's eye?, every tlmj the wind tosses up the dirt in the public thoroughfare. A business man In town was speaking one day this week about the dust nuisance and deplored the ,do-nothing policy of the street committee. "This continued blowing of dust into my store," said the merchant in qu?s tion, "is not only an irritation to my customers and my clerks, but a posi tive financial loss to me because it ruins my stuff to the tune of dollars and cents." And as this man spoke, so also would plenty of others who are annoyed bV this dust blowing nuisance and would like to see it wiped away, as it easily could be, by the watering cart. Yes, It is time, high time, to commence the sprinkling of the streets. It should be done for the looks of the thing, If from no higher motive, and it should be done for the comfort of pedestrians and for the protection of the city's tradespeople and the stock they carry in their stores. Raleigh is, according to the gratui tous admission of every traveler who has visited it, both from North Carolina cities and from municipalities far beyond the borders of the Tarheel state, one of the most beautiful and attractive cities in the Atlantic seaboard states. Good taste, and appreciation of home appear ances are reflected in the scores of tasty private residences and abundant public spirit Is manifested In the handr some and substantial buildings that house the business enterprises of the Tarheel capital. But It Is getting" to be notorious for its dirty streets, one of the worst advertisements to stran gers that can possibly handicap any city. The sprinkling should be com menced without delay and the whole community will be grateful to the rulor j of our city streets when It does com mence, The Times has had occasion to. call attention' to this lack of sprinkling before. It hopes it will not find it ne cessary to call attention to this neglect again. -.-'..;',',.'. In the good old Berkshire town of Dalton, Mass., United States Senator Crane has been elected a cemetery commissioner for three years. It'a earnestly to be hoped he will take thoi hint and dig a grave, political rather than physical, of course, for his pomp ous and unAmerlcan colleague, the Hon. Henry Cabot Lodge. ; When Mr. Bryan sees four men fight ing and spending good coin of the realm to get the republican gubematorln ! nomination in Indiana, he must feel that the opposition is full of hope an'l courage for this campaign. Emperor William Is the snob par ex cellence. He objected to Dr. Hill be cause Mrs. Hill, like now and then an unassuming American woman over on the other side of the pond, rides to market on a wheel. '. Mr. Bryan says Gov. Hughes Is "mo nopoly's friend." But Mr. Bryan is In consistent when he makes such a state ment. Mr. Bryan wants a monopoly of democratic presidential nominations. Read the papers. The shoo-fly will stay, even though it goes no further than Norllna. The Raleigh public appreciate the compro mise, although the train should go oa to Weldon. Of course, the great fraternity of newspaper makers will appreciate It !f Uncle Joe Cannon can cut down tin price of. white paper a bit. , Mrs. Elsie French Vanderbllt can live on- the ' income from Alfred's $5,000,000 If she's .disposed to cultivate an eco nomical turn of mind.
