And don't you know the county feels a bit jealous just now when they hear so much from the outside “ that Judge Silzer should be the Governor of New Jersey.” We are inclined to say to them: “ We told you that in no uncertain terms long ago.” It takes the mind back to the gubernatorial convention o f 1907 when Middlesex unanimously, enthusiastically and militantly presented the name o f Senator Silzer and again in 1910 when with intensified determi­nation they repeated their judgment to the people of the State. In view of our friendship from boyhood and our close activities together ip politics in “Auld Lang Sync,” the present realization so widely expressed m every part of the State that what Middlesex has felt for years is right, naturally gives to me and to all o f those who were closely associated with us m those days a most enjoy­able satisfaction. From the very nature o f things I have for over eleven years been aloof from participation in political manage­ment and direction, but detached as I am in this respect yet I, as

George, good as you have been to the county of your birth it also has been good to you; and its people general v feel you should now do what they1 for over fifteen years have pe , latently wanted done. This is not partisan, and you do not have to be in politics to senke the certainty and whole-heartedness of the feeling.

JUDGE SILZER TO D AY

ANNOUNCES HE WILLSEEK NOMINATION

(Continued from Page One))

y °u, j udged by past performance, have always sincerely and prac­tically manifested— your duty to the people to the limit demanded by your genuine love for the public good.

With my beat regards to Mrs. Silzer and Parker 1 am, as ever, Sincerely yours,

PETER F. DALY.

Judge Silzer’s LetterMetuchen, N. J.

, ■ ' June 22, 1922.Hon. Peter F. Daly,New Brunswick, N. J.

My Deal' Judge— Your kind letter of the twentieth Jnstant touches me deeply, for what could be more gratifying than to know that one has the esteem and good wishes of those among whom he has lived, all his life.

You have convinced me that they, the people of my home county, consider it my duty to permit my name to go befoi'e the voters at the coming gubernatorial primary. Becahse of this 1 have concluded to do so.

I have given this matter much consideration, because judicial work is to my liking, and my contact with the bar and jurors has been most agreeable.

The honpr and prominence alone of the executive station do not appeal to me. If 1 thought that that was all there was to it 1 should decline at once. It is the opportunity it presents for ser­vice to the State and its people that has persuaded me to my de­cision.

Having sat on the sidelines for some years, I believe I have the same view as the average citizen, and my belief is that the people o f the State are tired of petty politics, which have of late been the main feature of legislative sessions.

Playing for party position, shifting commissions and offices, seeking for office, and the endless discussions of unimportant ques­tions do not interest our people.

There are enough matters of real and substantial importance to engage the legislature with great profit to the State.

State expenditures have in a few years risen from six to sixteen million dollars.

Our municipal taxes have become burdensome and in some casea almost confiscatory.

Our unfortunates in State institutions are in many cases pathetically unprovided for.

State moneys are expended in lavish amounts without a just and honest return to the State. ,

In fact, there are many matters which call for most earnest coBaideration and deepest study, in order to bring the relief to EMtf* Allr '>iHMT1‘ ■»“ entitled.

I believe that if we consider the State more and party less something can be accomplished.

I have asked no one for this nomination, and am not obligated in any way, consequently I am free to adopt such course as in my judgment will be best for all.

Having served two terms in the Senate, three years as Prose­cutor o f Middlesex county, and nine years as Circuit Court Judge, the members of my party have had abundant opportunity to judge of my qualifications for the office, and so may determine whether or not they wish me to lead them.

If I am nominated I shall resign from the bench ahd enter actively into the campaign. At that time I shall state clearly and unequivocally where I stand on public, questions, for I do not be­lieve the people of the State like a “ straddler.” In the meantime 1 shall attend to my judicial duties which is what the people ex­pect o f me.

Perhaps it would not be improper to say that while in the Senate I was one of those who drafted and secured the passage of the Geran Election Law, which gave us a direct primary and cleaner elections.

I helped draft and enact the first Workman’s Compensation Law.

The law which permits the use of convicts on our highways for loadbuilding purposes was drafted by me and enacted into law.

Railroad men now receive their pay each two weeks instead o f once a month because of a bill which I drew and whose enact­ment into law I secured after several years’ effort.

For several years I succeeded in defeating the present law which gives fire insurance companies a monopoly and strangles competition in rates.

Recently our Public Utility Commission, composed of experi­enced men of high character, after fyil investigation of the facts and proper application of the law, determined what, in their judg­ment, was a just and proper fare. This decision, made by our own State tribunal should not be subject to interference by any Fed­eral court. Left to ourselves, with normal conditions at hand and with the legal warrant for proper valuation, which we now have, thqre must inevitably be a return to the five-cent fare.

In this connection I might also say that if it had not been for Everett Colby and others including myself, there would probably hot be in existence today any authority with power to protect the people against unjust exaeation* by public utility corporations.

From a reluctant legislature we forced a Railroad Commission L«w and afterward a Public Utility Commission Law.

I assisted in every way in all progressive measures enacted during my term, but the above are perhaps sufficient to show that nw work was at least constructive and helpful to our State. Our citizens, I believe, are more interested in accomplishment than in promise.

If nominated and elected I shall endeavor to justify the con­tinued good will and confidence of the people of my home county.

Yours very sincerely,GEORGE S. SILZER.

T H E H OM E TOW N SH EET

It isn’t a very big paper, as news- papers go these days, _

But it's little town it has put on the map in different ways.

It has no leased wire in its office, noi fqijr-deck presses to run—

Its paper comes just in a bundle, and not by the carload, or ton,

But it has claims to distinction, and •’ whrfch it will always make good;

Its limit is only the limit' of how people do as they should.

It boosted for incorporation, for grad- ing and sidewalks and trees—

Schools—teachers—and helped train the boys that America sent overseas

It argued for health and for sewers,, and places for kiddies to play—

For parks and dean living and think­ing, and brightened the way.

It befriended the churches and lodges, the band and the choral club, too,

And helped with the flour mill and coal mine and all that citizens do

To push a good town to the front row where people will see it and smile—

For a live town induces good nature- good nature eliminates bile.

It mentioned all of the babies am;spread their fame far and wide,

Inspired them through life and then said a good word for them when they died

The crops of the neighborhood always e in for a compliment, too.

And the front office had an exhibit ol wheat, oats and barley on view, jiiention was made of the flowers,

the ol'chards arid lawns arid grass. And once in a while an acknowledg­

ment of a “ passel of garden sass” The world was told of the chicken:

and turkeys that strutted about,And even about the red heifer that

broke the fence down ahd got out New buildings and all such improve

ments were specially played up strong.

New paint on a fence and the new porches were always good for a song.

The paper is still doing duty as neigh­bor, guide, mentor and friend,

But the pathway is crooked and thorny and many have come to the end

Unnourbihed and starved and neglec ed as though they had never been

Boosting and struggling and boosting determined with fair help, to win;

But in fact, the paper’s one o f us, and one that we like to greet;

So hats off! three cheers! and appre- ciation! to the old honte town sheet

PRESENTATION OF CLASS GIFT MADE

BYSAMSCHENCKMembers of the Board o f Education:

For many years it has baen the custom of the outgoing class to pre­sent to our Alma Mater some article which would serve in years to come as a monument to that clasa. Usual­ly that gift has been o f an ornamen­tal nature. The Class o f ’22 decided to give something which would be symbolic of ourselves, which will be useful and ever ready for service.

We wished in some measure to ex press in a tangible way our apprecia tion of the many years spent under the shelter o f this familiar roof years that have gone to the pext but

nish the seed fo r many aeta e f the future, years that will ever livewithin us and will forever receive ourdeepest feeling o f regard.

We feel that this library desk which •e are presenting will be aa useful in

the future as any other g ift cbuld be and it is our earnest desire that every itudent who receives a book across

this desk will realize that the surest path to true learning is found through constant visits to ths modest monu ment of the Class o f ’22.

Rolls o f Dirt

Carried Away;

Rolls o f Cleanli

ness Brought

Back!

In most homes, rugs and carpets are cleaned about as thoroughly as a boy washes his face. All dirt is removed -except wliat remains. Shampooing is the latest improved process for thoroughly cleaning carpets and rugs. The work is done with all the care of gentle hands. Pure soap and water are scrubbed into the fabric by a soft electric brush. All dirt is loosened, all grease spots are dissolved. A Vacuum Cleaner re­moves every particle of washed out dirt, grit and grime, leaving the rug dry, clean and bright as new.

No rug is too soiled to be perfectly cleaned by our Shampoo Process. Don’t discard rugs and carpets be­cause they are old and soiled. Let us shampoo Clean­liness into them and you’ll get more wear out of them W e’ll roll them up, carry them away and return them to you with everything except the dirt.

Phone or write for us to call.
