Fnr Preident. THEODORE ROOSEVELT,

For; Viet PrtsideUt, - . CHARLES W. FAIRBANKS, olfeiSBlAVA.

The nomination of Theodore Roosevelt and Charles W. Fairbanks tor national standard bearers could not have been improved upon. They have been tried in •datesmanahip and have proved true to the trusts imposed upon them. .Three years have been put in by Roosevelt as chief magistrate, and he has done all that he promised to do—followed in the course of the lamented McKinley. Fairbanks, as a senator of the Union for Indiana,has shown that he ia capable of tilling the IVesioential chair, a qualification all vice presidential candidates should possess. The Republicans have biongbt oat excellent timber. It is hoped that the D mocrata will bring out their men who would bring honors to the pUces and themselves, «bould they be ao fortunate as to win.'which ia hardly probable in the light of ^fiairs at the present time. /

In Atlantic County there are already two candidates for the Republican nomination for senator. They are the.present state senator, Edward 8. Lee. and Walter E. Edge, who has for five yearj been secretary of the State Senate. Senator Lee is said to have made a good representative and as it seems to be the custom in Atlantic county to return a senator for the second time, this ought to be in the senator’s favor. Mr. Edge has been receiving $1500 00 a year as secretary, while the senator only receives $500 00. If there is a change in the senatorehip in that county many of the people from other counties seem to think that the position ought to go to Thomas C. Elvina, who has served the county well in the Assembly.

The finance committee of City Council last Thursday sold the $140,000 of city improvement, thirty year, five percent bonds at 105; which was a fair premium, considering the other bonded indebtedness of $198,000 which was already outstanding. These bonds are excellent investments for persons who want sore incomes. Cape May is steadily growing and in time its debt will be not near at so great a percentage of its valuation as is the case in some other cities.

City Council, with all its talk, has not atopped tbe dumping of garbage and . filth at the corner of Colombia avenoe and Jefferson street. This i* a terrible nuisance to the cottagers along that residential thoroughfare, and there is a Just and persistent condemnation of the city fathers in their indifference to this question.

The mayor of Camden, Hon. Joseph' E. Nowrey, wants the Democratic nom ; - nation for governor. He expects his affiliation with secret orders to help him. It will. Everybody wishes him well. He might get the nomination, bat already objections are being pot in against his nomination by those who are not H earsti tea.

The platform adopted at Chicago is not only a splendid political document! but one that covers the history of - America for the past fifty years by pointing oat the brillisnt achievements

of the KepnbUcan party. '

Unrie Joe Cannon threaten to bo^ come a spellbinder. Coupled with his brnnety way of patting things, be has a ragged sort of eioqi

Joorameat to St. Look far the parposa

of comparing it with other countries of

the world. ■

Things are looking brighter for the Russians. The rainy seesou may prev ut the Japanese from rushing them out of }he country too precipitately. Wisconsin gives an 111nstration of the fact that a third-term candidate is apt to strike a rocky road.

BARATOGA, June 28.-Tbe First Nstloual bank of.Karatoga has been ckwsd by tbs goverumeur examiner. The following notice was iMisled on the door: “At the request of the directors and by order of the comptroller of the currency this bank is closed." The run which began on the citizens' National bank Baturday led many to fear a raid by small depositors on the First National. The announcement on Saturday in the local newspa|>er* that William H. Bockes, for mun/' yenri cashier of the First National bunk, bad been superseded as cashier by former Village President Robert F. Milligan, led to conjectures that added to the local excitement. One of the Vi rat National bank directors said: “We felt that our bank would undoubtedly be compelled to inert a run. and we did pot have money enough on band to meet such a run as the < 'Itizens' National is having now, and nut having auSlctegg time to procure the need--l financial assistance to meet all demands that might be made we requested the comptroller of the currency , through Bank Examiner Van Yrankeu. to close our bank and thus avoid the run. The deposits In our bank reach over $700,000. The suspeusiou is but

temporary, I hope."
