Borne of oar Republican politicians, city and county, are making it so plain that they are "oat for the cash" that everybody U "onto" them. They were repudiated last fall, but they are taking op collections and preparing to get into the national convention so as -to be able to tap, if possible, a let of new barrels. Cape May Oounty^-as netfer' affiicted with a more unscrupulous lot of schemers than some of those who are now plotting to control the Republican party. They see the possibility of a great harvest in the campainn next year, since a president, governor, U. S. Senator, Sheriff' and' other officers are to be elected and the fair fame of the county will be more besmirched by torn than H has been already, if Republicans are not on the alert. HIGH POINTS IN MESSAGE OF GOVERNOR FIELDER. Reports finances better than for several years. Asks consideration of conservation of natural resources. Recommends investigation with a view to state ownership of South Jersey water rights. Suggests road improvement as aid I to national defenes program. Wants demand for second normal school given careful consideration. 1 Would have power given public util- ' ity commission to fix railroad rates, ' citing needs of South Jersey commu- 1 ters. Desires brief session of legislature ' and fewer laws. ■ i THE COUNTY EXECUTIVE 1 COMMITTEE. < The county executive committees pro- > vided for by the direct primary act are ' called into being for the purpose of aid- ' big the candidate after he is nomin- j ated and with the dosing of the cam- ! 1 ■—paljn .their entire work is done and they I ' have neither power nor right to nomin- 1 ate candidates, collect money or any- I ' thing else; \-X |<

They hgve no 'legal, .political, moral or religious right to speak for anybody but such individuals who compose them are willing. The direct primary act was passed for the express purpose of placing the direction and control of all political matters in .the hands of the people and to eliminate the "boss." that is tbe man who assumes the right to control the party and endeavors to make the great cardinal principles of the party and the only test of loyalty, allegiance • to himself and the backing up of his schemes. Marguerite Clark in "Gretna Green." Marguerite Clark, the dainty and magnetic little star, who sprang into i Instant and national popularity as a screen favorite through her two previous Famous Players' productions, "Wildflower" and "The Crucible," retforns to tbe screen at the Perry Street Theatre on Tuesday. January 18, in the Famous Players Film Company's four-part picturization Of Grace Idr- ' togeton Furniss' celebrated romantic comedy, "Gretna Green." in which she far surpasses all her former successes. This latest appearance of the diminutive and charming star on the Paramount Program is certain to establish her as one of the foremost screen artiste of the world. A' PICKPOCKET CAUGHf " A Cape X^ay spectator was attracted by the appearance of crowd at one of the entrances to a big Philadelphia department atore. during the Chriatmae shopping days and went to see what . causing it."

Ingeraoll's Denonaatioa of "The Father of AH Crimes." ^ I am aware that there is a prejudice ( , against any man who manufactures al- , , cohol. I believe that from the time it ' , issues from the coiled and poisonous . worms in the distillery until H empties into the jaws oLOeatli, dishonor and . crime, it degtmdizes everybody jtfcat touches it, from its source to.jthefa it ends. I do not believe anybody can con- ( template the object without being preju- ^ diced against the liquor crime. All we have to do, gentlemen, is to ( think of the wrecks on either bank of , the stream — of deaths, of the suicides, of the insanity, of the ignorance, of tbe I destitution, of the little children tugging at the faded and withered breasts of weeping and despairing mothers, of wives asking for bread, of the men of genius it has wrecked, the men struggling with imaginary serpents — produced this devilish thing; and when you think of tbe jails, of the almhouses, of the. asylums, of the prisons, or the scaffolds upon either bank, I do not wonder that every thoughtful man Is prejudicial ] against this damned stuff called alcohol. cuts down youth in its vigor, manhood in its strength, old age 1 in its weakness. It breaks the father's heart, bereaves the doting mother, ex- j linguistics natural affection, erases conjugal love, blots out filial attachments, , | paretal hopes, brings- down I mourning age in sorrow to the grave. It ( produces weakness, not life. It makes I wives widows; children orphans; fathers I fiends, and all of them paupers and beg- '

3x Rars._ It feeds rheumatism, invites choljt era, imports pestilence and embraces con- ] r« ! sumption. It covers the land with idle- j is neaa, misery, crime. It fills your jails, j e. supplies your almhouses and demands j. your asylums. It engenders controvcry. i sies, fosters quarrels and cherishes riots. 18 It crowds your penitentiaries and furnisbes .victims for your scaffolds It is ;e the life blood of the gamblers, the eley ment of the burglar, the prop of the highwayman and support of the mid- I ;R night incendiary. It countenances tbe j | liar, respects the thief, esteems the | | blasphemer. It violates obligation, rev- I » ! erences fraud and honors infamy. It defames benevolence, hates love, soorns ' j virtue and slanders innocence. It incites j 0 j the father to butcher his helpless off ! ! spring, helps the husband to massacre _ his wife and the child to grind the pari- ( tidal ax It burns up men. consumes women, detests life, curses God. despises t Heaven. It suborns witnesses, nurses u perjury, defiles the jury box and Btains : , judicial ermine. It degrades the citizen, debases the legislator, dishonors the 1 statesman and disarms the patriot. It , bringt shame, not honor ; danger, not safety; despair, not hope; misery, not happiness, and with the malevolence of a fiend it calmy surveys its frightful 1 desolation and unsatiatad havoc. It poisons felicity, led* peace, ruins mor- ' ale, blights confidence, slays, reputations and wipes out national honor, then curses the world and laughs at its ruin. It does all that and more. It murders , the soul It is the sum of all villainies, the father of all crimes, the mother of all abominations, the devil's own ban ' friend and God's worst enemy.
