Thousand* In Fighting aN«w Blight

8an rrtndico.—A couidanble tm-•«>•_»• «»«ln« Wil t br Wealthy Call-tornjKM In an effort to lava groveson beautiful estates near this cityfrom a, blight tb»t has recently at-tacked most of th» trees. Tree wr-teons ar* gathering here from varl-eui parte of the country and areworking hard under offers ot lar»erewards if they can stop the destruc-tion. Should they fall, it le probablethat forwteri will be brought fromBurope.

Thr bltght li In the form of a fun-gus known as the volsarla bacteria.After It has taken hold on a tree thou-sands of -wdrms develop*,—^j^y-apfrmuch like the carpenter borer. Thesepierce the bark through and through,and sometimes make large holes,Tbclr ravages were not detected until•many of the fine shade trees, wiltedthis season and were threatened withquick death. Tre» authorities of Stan-ford TmlTBWtty-weTe-caTftd. In an3iound. that4h» blight estendW-jnnonrthe •states In beautiful' Menlo park.They als^ discovered that th« diseasewas spreading rapidly to the nortli.

The Stanford scientists could nottell the source of the blight, ejid thenthe surgeons from the east were call-ed In, among them O. H. Bishop, vhowat trained at the Tale School ofForestry. The only thing that hasserved to help the trees has been toremove the fungus when found,, andplug the holes made by tha borersWith cement. In som« Instances ashigh'as 1600 has been spent to save asingle tree, and the total expense willrun high into the thousands"

One theory Is that the gersTot thafungus has been brought in fromAda, from which many trees havebeen Imported to beautify the groundsof wealthy men. It Is probable thatInvestigators will be sent to Japanind China In an effort to trace the dis-ease.' Fln« forest* throughout th«" north-west Pacific coast are also being de-vastated. A species of beetle"lays Itseggs in the bark of the tree. Fromthem come grubs that grow Inside thebark and feed on the tree until theyare developed, when they bore out andbecome beetles which fly away to de-stroy other trees. Hundred! of In-'acted pines have' been cut down andstate and government authorities areco-operating with lumbermen in1 an ef-fort to wipe out the pest

WILSON CLAIMS

Women Workers For the Gov-i ernor Have Been Deceived.Chairman Wakalto Shows How Thay

Want Impottd Upon Wbtn Induetd tt" Praia* Wilton For Legislation Initiat-

ed and Fram«d by RtpMblicana.

The Woman's Notional \yilson nndMarihall organization Is sending out aletter directed1 to women In all partsof tbe United Stiites which covers aleaflet purporting to give a list of someof the laws enacted in the Btate of NewJersey In the years 1011 and 1912through the Influence of Governor Wil-ton. The actual record Is BO dlfferenT

iE.Qne whldi la boiac-dliiled that Chairman Edmund \V. Wakeleeof tbe Republican state committee, whothrough long *enice In the legislatureand studji of New Jersey statutes lithoroughly rumillur with the facts, baafelt himself Impelled to, issue tho fol-lowing statement:, •

"Nobody doubts the honest motive!)of the ladles who comprise the Wo-man's National Wilson and Marshallorganization, nor is it to be Imaginedthat they would willfully seek to de-

- eelve their sisters who enjoy the fran-chise directly or through the votes ofthe men In their families. Yet this or-

' ganlzatlon of estimable ladles Isspreading broadcast throughout thecountry a letter signed by its president,Mrs. Borden Harriman, which gives

"•to Governor Wilson the crediffor all~ i heprogresslve and numanTtarlan' leg-

islation enacted in New Jersey duringthe years 1911 and 1012. Evidentlysomebody has taken a mean advan-tage of their trust in their candidate."

"On assuming office In 1911 GovernorJFIlson stated In an Interview that itwould be wasting his force to try andaccomplish too much legislation, andthat be would concentrate bis energiesupon an effort to secure the enactmentof tour bills—an election law, a work-lngman's compensation for injuriesact, a statute conferring rate makingpower on the public service commis-sion, and a corrupt practices act

"When the Democratic assemblybalked at tbe Goran election bill, besummoned them before him and threat-ened to go Into tbe constituency ofany man who opposed the act andappeal to the voters to put that manont of politics. AlthouglT'Republleanassemblymen 'called attention to hun-

.. fired* of crudities and errors in tbeMil, aa drafted. It waa gent to the

ures, many of them simply developingand extending Republican legislation, ofearlier yearn. New Jersey, under Re-publican administration, him bceo fore-most among the "states of the VuionIn developing pood ronds, public schoolsand Ktala lwrUU'Ji and benevolence*.

"The K&MI ladles who espouse Gov-ernor Wjlson'H cause should huve ex-tended their list of useful and pro-gressive legislation passed by the lustRepublican lefflslature and should haveadded the nets for the prevention offorest Ores, establishing harbor boards,enlarging tbe agricultural experimentstation npd- college -of agriculture, com-mission to provide employment for nndproper distribution of Immigrants, pro-tecting the uniform of the liolteitStates soldiers and sailor*, commissionto Investigate tuberculosis In cattle,providing for the carrying of lights byhorse-drawn vehicles, protecting thebadges of Spanish War Veterans, pro-viding for greater sanitation In baker-ies, protection of fish and game, im-proving condition of the blind, appoint-ing a plant pathologist for the benefitot the farmer*, raising the qualltkn-tlons for admission to practise dent-istry, placing school janitors under civilservice protection, securing publichealth- by regulatlqg oyster culture,providing public playgrounds, regulat-ing cremation, obliging physicians topromptly report cases of qommunlcu-ble disease, safeguarding tbe transpor-tation of explosives, eight hour Inw forstate aud country, Workmen, ship canalcommission, marking channels Inwaterways, forbidding the employmentof minors as messengers at night, regu-lations for fire escapes, permitting mu-nicipalities to establish their own light,heat and power plants, prohibiting cir-culation of Indepent literature, estab-lishing a standard for milk, amendingthe mechanics' lien law.

"These measures are mentioned, be-cause, while claiming credit for Mr.Wilson for New Jersey's most recentprogressive and humanitarian legisla-tion, the ladles of. the W. N. W. and it.0. might as well have given him all.

t"tn!i was the only one of the fourpet measures of Governor Wilson thatthe Democrats are entitled to ac-credit for passing.

"The governor's corrupt practicesj i c t was BO crude that he willingly al

lowed it to be discarded for one drawnby Senator Prince, a Republican. Tbeworkmen's compensation for injuriesact was prepared^ by a BerJubHCaiTcommission appointed the previousyear by Governor Fort, at that time aRepublican, and whose chairman wasSenator Edge, also a Republican.

IThe legislature of 1912 was Renuh-lican In-both branches, and enactedmost of tile laws for which tbe Iad|pnof the Woman's National Wilson nndMarshall organisation think the Gov-ernor should be given credit.

"Every one of the acts enumerated»>y Mrs. Harriman and-by her act-red-i«ed to Governor Wilsptf wttrflie workof Republicans and passed by Itepub-llcflnff through the legislature.

: TO MAKE A FLYLESS CITY 5• • •

Cleveland is to he classed and cata-logued as a flyless town. In the cam-paign Inaugurated for the extermina-tion of tbe fly four step* are outlined:

First—To ccluoato th» ptopl* as tothe dtadly nature of the fly.

Second—To kill off all winter flies—those hidden about the nous**, waitingtheir taason of forage

Third,—To do away with all breadingplaces for flits.

Fourth.—To trap all flits that happento. escape.

As tbe first step addresses on thesubject are being made before the va-rious women's clubs and in the schoolsof the dry. Circulars and booklets willbe distributed among the children ofthe schools, to be carried by them totheir homefli ppatergj,,aM,A)Jujk9Mbutietina will be ptaced In the schools,in the street cars and other publicplaces, carrying the sermon of thereform.

As the writer of these lines "wasdriving home on Springfield avenue-one night last week, perhaps an hourbefore midnight,' he met a marketwagon drawn by a horse, the driverof which was apparently fast aalcei>At any rate he made no attempt '.0turn out when meeting anoJther vehi-cle, but kept right on in tbe middleCT. l i e ro~J. Auu jiit-i e » B » lr. llgufwhatever upon th«-vehicle. Thowriter had a couple pf lights'on Illscarriage, but as they were not acety-lenol lot electric search lights he wasunable to fleo the unlighted rig untilhe was almost in collision with It. Hesucceeded In passing It without harm,and went home In a state of righteousIndignation."The writer confesses, however, a

profound sense of shame and guilt Inleavjng undone an Important duty tothe public. Instead of passing thelaw-breaking vehicle and hurryinghomo he ought to have stopped, oelzetlthe horse, wakened the driver/urgedhim to put a light on the wagon, andprocured his arrest and punishmentIf he did nut do so. Uf course thatmight'have Involved him ln_a,<row,perhaps a fight. But what of thatcompared with public duty? There Isno Sbefore the unlighted vehicle reachedits destination.

This was a flagrant case, but It wastypical of many. Every night ourroads are traversed by vehicles .whichBIIOW nip lights, and which are thussources of serious danger to the publicas well as to thelf'own drivers. It Isnot"pleasant to complain of a neighbor,or to hare one arrested and fined. ButtbeiHtr-ifl-noi pleasant, either, to havea neighbor break the law and putyour life in peril. The lighting of vohides is so simple, easy and Inex-pensive a thing that' neglect,of It Isquite Inexcusable. If ah automobilewere run without lights, everybodywould he up In arms against It. Buta llghtless wagon Is In some respectsjust as dangerous, and Is of courseJust as much a -violation of the law.Tho law requires that every vehicleshall carry a light showing both for-

Even so we darespeak up after listening to the flow-ery speeches on beauty and romancetinged with sarcasm and isatlre forour council, the political hatred andtactless' worded phases whichrubbed Into the ring at the recentmass meeting, a very enjoyable liter-ary debate on a scientific subjectwhich no one except the three engi-neers present touched on the exactfactB.

The strain of tho whole meetingil l

meetng'was that the council want to elevatethe trticks and get thp graft the rail-s-odd, will give them, but the wholeborough want a depression so let ustalk, an one of the gentlemen said,so that the ring caii't help the railroadelevate. If tlrfe orator had made aslip In one word and said, "The rail-road want the elevation, and the"rain1 instead of the 'ring' is helpingthem to build It," he would have stat-ed the only fact voiced by any of thelaymen present, and the only factnecessary to convince any fair mind-ed man-wliy-anelevation -l#-the~oft4y-practieal proposition to eliminate our

. dangerous grade crossings.The most Important thing to con-

sider Is the damage of storm waterin the much pleaded for ChineseDitch or Moat, was not considered.And in the words of the Engineer oftho Citizen's Committee, "The drain-age would be more or less of a badfeature probably more than less,"but he had not Investigated that sub-ject much. No.of course not, he waaengineer-etiouKh to know that hecould hot handle it to the advantageof the depression therefore he let it

The mere fact that the railroadrun* through a valley receiving thedrainage of a large area of high landnear by convinces any practical mattthat the depression is out of thequestion. Their engineer w.as honest,be showed that a depression was a

Of course, the ring was pretty wellnrushwl that-night What gang ofCTQQJ&I''governing..ajiy. -city, .w&uld--notlie 'when T o many "serious mfnifedmen seemed to waiting their turn todrive It in?

The writer of this is a taxpayer andvoter-In this town for JeSs than 3years, so, of course, does not knowmuch about the present ruling bodyIn our Borough, but oue thing seemscertain, that there are in this townsome very JealouB and unreasonablepolitical sentiments against our coun-ell' proven by several different movesespecially by the mean, unfair litera-ture circulated last election and thepresent tactics used by this combinewhich Becnm to be that no matterwhat way the governing body tUTngthere Is ever ready th.gtt-mean, antag-onism".

Falrmouiit ffiTly good points of i.a depression, ver:Cleverly avowing theiTaota which mailIt decidedly impracticable so that hedid not commit himself In any way asan engineer. (Especially do we re-member his clever answers in regardto Passaic avenue)... Of course thcitizen's committee vrao live on tinsouth side of the railroad would adoplthis depression plan because the 11foot raise above the present trackat Hillside avenue with a six or seven per cent grade would not run outvery far and therefore, would noidamage their.. property; but whacould be very easily made better thanwhat It now Is. But on the 'north

, Bide w,here It would be between 250"'and 300 feet from the. railroad to the

point where It would Intersect-with- t h e present existing grade of the

street, here property would be sh,u.o1t. from the street and the fronyards would be, as In tho case oHillside avenue, about 16 feet belowthe roaA way of the approach to aover-head bridge., Of course, the prop-erty on the south side of tho railroadwould toe enhanced In value. So the

'proposition would be O. K.-—- Most- anybody will admit that-

depresston is more desirable than anelevation of a "dirty R. R." and whena petition is sent to people wordedas-was the petition sent but by theCitizen's Committee most anyone wil"think right away that a cut certainly,looks better than a fill, especiallywhen the reasonsTyre not given whya fill is necessary • and statementsmade in a manner Implying that therailroad la trying to,force the eleva.tlon dn us, of course a great numberof people will'fall for this and thusthe petition grows Just as the con-vinced gentleman who was braveenough and fair enough to admit heas otherB had been led like sheephaving not-known tho just reasonswhy an elevation was necessary

Also, let it be known that many oftho names which were read-as signedto a, petition against an elevationwere names which were signed onlyto a petition for a pubH<r hearing.

New York city has several streets Inthe outlaying sections where thegrade of the streela, many, of: themalready paved and Improved, are be-ing revised With a raise l.ojt some 5and 6 feat, this being done to eli-minate the bad and dangerous con-ltions from sjorm vater, and surfacedrainage which we find in even thestreets in the heart of the city wherethe street is In th slump of a sur-rounding area. No expense Is sparedin attaining the best drainage facil-ities, but still the water will raise 2and JTlcet, causing nwch damage and

"annoyance to traffic.' Now If 'such.acondition Is probable to occur In anyventure made by any Individual com-pany or corporation, do-you think the

If the railroad wanted to depress,would the terrible drainage questionprevent them.? No. It would be onlya small matter of detail aB statesMr. Whlnery whose engineering reputatlon is state-wide and whoseviews were shown to be unbiassed atthe school house meeting by his read!ness to point out both the strong andthe weak points on each side of thequestion, and by his lack of "bluff.1

If you have hot read his full report, do so and then express; youropinions about the feasibility ofBeml-depreBsion. ,

Now our "Impossible because ofidrainage" friends will tell you that acut would be all. right at Red Road.Though Just why this would be dif-ferent from a drainage point of viewI do not iwe, an the hill extends farabove Rod Road. - '

, Una population of Chatham now aurobering nearly 2,000.

The Light receipts for December1901, were $154.99 and for December1911—10 years later—they amountedto $979.03. The Water receipts for

It thereforemust be apparent that our PoweiPlant Is wonderfully expansive andat the same time It has stood the4est_of .Jgverej strains. As statedabove, however, the Board feels thatth-ey dare not longer ImpoBe such aHeavy burden on it.

Chatham's water supply Is secondto none. This is proved by frequentanalysis. Should any lowering in thestandard be detected, a thorough investlgaflon would immediately be

The.same boilers that furnish pow-er to the light dynamo, also run the

' pumps, which are operated at nightIn! order to effect as much econo'myas possible. Ot late, however, It hasbeen necessary to. keep the pumps goIng during the day as well, in orderto maintain the needed pressure forthe higher parts of the bordugh,which, of course, Is an ^ridetTTBtraiaon the machinery.

The prbflf on the .Water and Ughtplant nets the taxpayers of Chrfttiama handsome return, maintaining thestreet lighting and hydrant servicewithout cost to them.
