H0N.#5Enr FRELINGHUYSEN VISITS COUVTY AS CANDIDATE FOR D. S. SENATOR-' SHIP AND CALLS ON MANY FRIENDS. Hon. Joseph Frelinghuysen, can- > didate for the Republican nomin- ; 1 ation for United States Senator, ! " paid a visit to this county this week ! 1 and met many friends who knew : him as State Senator and of hiB ' effective service in that capacity, 1 It may not he generally known that . , he was an fcctive friend and sup- : porter of most measures introduced during the period of his legislative - sen-ice for the benefit of Cape , May County by Senator Hand. " He was a visitor on several occasions r < to our county, and became much I impressed with its charms and possibilities, and has noted, with pleasr ure, since, its amazing progress in 1 different directions. He was an r active snppotter of the Inland a W aterway project, and gave vigor- : ous aid to the securing of State - appropriations for it. He has al- - ways been an ardent supporter of all movements for the betterment f of school conditions, and is perhaps s entitled to as much credit for the y reorganization of our school system e and the marvelous improvement which has resulted in school condif j tions as any man in the State. For t years Ije Las jbeen a . prominent [i figure in all movements for the j development of our state agri-' il cultural resources, and the improve- 1 e nient of conditions in the farming i .. infinlrtrir nnit ic tiai, au-i-lnrt' I and serving, with

energy and distinction, as the Pres- 1 0/ the State Board of Agri-' culture,, and also as President of the State Board of Education. It a characteristic of Senator that he does with his . might whatever he attempts to do, and, in all his public service '-be to be^an earnest and painstaking man in the perform- [ ance of his duty fearlessly and 'conscientiously. He enlisted as a private in the Spanish- American War, thus showing patriotisni of self-sacrificing order, and numamong his ancestors several 1 distinguished men .of this state, who performed notable pnbiic serin their day.If he secures the nomination) and election to the United States 1 Senate, New Jersey will be assured of loyal and effective representation in that body, and the nation of and patriotic service.

G0U>EN JUBILEE A. r. members have a GALA toce at kansas city— capt. a a. gils represents post 40, and Writes story for star AND wave. The following article describing the golden jubilee of the Grand Army waa prepared by Captain A C Gile for la*t week's edition of the. Star and Wave, it was necessary to omit same on account of pressure of other business. As the Sauta Fee train rolled into the Grand Union Depot this Sunday evening, it brought hundreds of veterans into a city bright with lights and colors. , Buildings of all sizes and shapes were with the State and .National colors Red, White and Blue everywhere "Uld Glory" *as strongly in evidence. This great body of veterans cornea into the "Heart of America," m this state is about the centre of this country, to attfnd the Golden Jubilee of the Grand Army of the Republic. On the same trains that brought the veterans, were many women — membera of organizations affiliated with the A. R. — Ladies of the Relief Corp, of Veterans, which is now growing to be an immense organization; besides, one could count a large number of Sons of Veterans. The crowd at the station to meet the host of veterans was Immense. Boy Scouts ou duty to the number of one hundred and fifty, to «ct as orderliea for old soldiers flittered about, and right roally did they help, and escort them to the various places at hotels and private houses Besides the Boy Scouts, every one, young and old, men and wowould readily assist and have ft kind word for them As one old man expressed it, "Oh! What a grand and glorious country this is! -Die very atmosphere seems to speak a hearty welcome I" A long train just arrived from Illinois, hundreds from that state, which was the "birthplace of the G. A R, the first National Encampment being held in Indianapolis, Ind., on November 20th, 1866 — a half century ago. The information Bureau, at the station, for the assignment of those wanting places to go to, was kept open all night, attended by twenty flcVe men, who had the number, street, and price of rooms to be had, and after one would select a place he wanted, a Boy Scout would be on the spot to go with Mm and escort him direct to the house, always insisting on carrying the bags or grips. The hospitality of these great-big-hearted Western people was surely an object lesson to Eastern visitors to this . great western inland city. -Six of us were taken to a house at 320 West 13th Street, The people's name was "Goodly" and they certainly did deserve the name, they gave us a good home>like reception and greeting. We each had' a room; and a bath for every three per- • , sons. After a good meal, we all retired, ' wearied wjth our travel, to dream of tha I coming morrow. We awoke on Monday morning — a bright and pleasant day— at six thirty. We strolled about, to go foraging for breakfast, and take in the sights of the town. t Kansas City, Monday, Aug. 28th. This, the first morning in this great ' western eity, is, to those who have never taken Horace Greeley's advice to "go west," a revelation. One has to stop and think for a moment of the strong contrast— an inland city built upon the Great American south western prairie. It does not require much effort to draw on one's imagination to* the days when the place was roamed over by the Red Men, Tftinting wild game through the high prairie grass, and some yeara later, the Pinoneer settjpps, with their open and canvas covered Schooner wagons plodding nlong the dusty trail, a rifle on shoulder, and sometimes the wife looking out of the front, holding in her arras a small child, and perhaps a half-grown boy bringing up the rear. When, suddenly, you are brought back to realize that this is no longer what you have been half dreaming about but a large, up-to-date city, built on the very gfiound that you had pictured in your mind but a few moments just passed— a large thriving, bustling city of over three hundred thousand souls, a twentieth century dty, inhabited by the same kind of people as yourself, and now giving ont to you and thousands of visitors a smiling, generous, whole-hearted.
