His insolent attacks, through the means of threatening letters, upon Governor Fort and members of the House of Assembly, have aroused the indignation of the people of New Jersey, and especially of the true friends of local option, as we realize that we can never "win so long as such intemperate tac- ! ties are employed in the name of j — — 1 A public utility bill, particularly : < with rate making powers, could very 1 1 easily become a serious menace to the 1 seashore counties and to all others in 1 which future development is not thor- 1 ooghly provided for.

Reasons Why His Camden Neighbors Respect I and Honor Him (From the Jersey City Journal. ) David Baird, of Camden, is the acknowledged Republican leader of South . Jersey and one of the most potential parly leaders in the sta'e. The ease 1 with which he secured the election in • the teeth of strong opposition, of - Henry J. West, to succeed J. Willard Morgan as state comptroller, showed i the calibre of Bsird's leadership and 1 > astonished many who imagined they 1 a lot about state politics. Like ] the late Senator Sewell, whom he sue- 1 . ceeded as leader in South Jersey, Baird is an Irishman, and he speaks ! with a rich far down accent that makes his words sw et and picturesque. Baird's political strength lies in the > fact that be is personally probably the DAVID BAIRD must popular man in the whole southern tier of counties. He has never his word, and he would walk , barefooted in the snow to help a friend. I There are no frills about him. The is always on the street side of his door, and the humblest may enter at will. Street laborers in Camden slap on the back in friendship. Everydown that way likes "Davey" Baird and his square deal-and-let-live philosophy of life. A stranger would ! not be sale in saying thiiigs about "Davey" in Camden; if he went too he would probably be lynched. It money that chains Baird to politics. He has a million or two, or maybe eight or ten millions for the matter of that, which he made in the spar and timber business. Nearly all the shiphave to go to him for spars. He stays in politics, he says, because the relaxation of the game keeps him and enables him to do an occasional good turn for a friend and inci; dentally to take a good, hard, Irish fall out of a bumptious political enemy and then. "'Davey" is as popular at Trenton as he is in Camden. Ho is a great friend of Cape May's and 'has secured rooms for the opening at the Hotel Cape May. EffTTEN BY A SPIDER Through blood poisoning caused by a spider bite, John Washington, of Bosqueville. Tex., would have lost his leg, which became a mass of running sores, had he not been persuaded to try Bocklen's Arnica Salve. He vMjtes: "The first application relieves^ and four i boxes healed all the sores." Heals i every sore. 25 cents at All Drug , Stores. apr j Thomas Soults' general store in Gold Spring is a popular base of supplies in 1 Lower Township and a "square deal" : is given to every patron. tf i
