We cannot form alliances with those ' who are not going our way. We need | not and we should not fotm alliances ' with any nation in the world. Those who are right, those who hold their honor higher than their advantage, do net need alliances.'' BULLETS DURING THE WAR AND , BALLOTS DURING ELECTION ; Don't be a slacker next Tuesday, walk to the polls and vote the straight j ticket and help to keep progress and ; prosperity. What would have hap- 1 pened during the war if our boys | would have been slackers? FOR VALUE RECEIVED Next Tuesday, along with the var-J lous national issues to be voted upon) ' by the populace of New Jersey, will , be one" of vital interest to all fairminded, justice-loving Americans, the 'New Jersey State Bonus Bill, a 1 . • bill which, if passed by the voting j people of New Jersey, will give to j those who gave,- 510.00 for each month in service with a maximum of $100.00.' Just a trifling sum to give for the sake 2 of thanking the many thousands who , did all in their power to save the people of the nation from the terrible scourge of war, as visited upon the j countries of Europe — surely not a mercenary proposition, not a question of a price on patriotism, unless looked upon in a narrow-minded light. How about the men who were draw- j ing fabulous wages in the munitions ^factories and a 20% bonus, as well, Were the oountry's resources in any : better state then than now? That a bonus could be paid to these patriotic ' citizens, and yet state now that the ' -country cannot afford a Minus? Whs it possible or plausible that the huge salaries paid the shipyard workon during the days of war, when our finances were undergoing the severest •train that the country has known, sad" with Government money, for the same purpose as the soldier worked, namely, to defeat the Hun, be given In addition for their patriotic efforts, buge bonuses, any more legitimately economically than today? Will the people repudiate ffie efforts of these .boys, by forsaking them now ? No, the grateful citizens of this state are going to help us; wont you be one of them? Before going to the polls, just sit down and think bow much the service men lost, not only in money, but the valuable time, years that they never can regain. Who knows whet they might have been fortunate to accomplish in those days to better their present and future conditions. Shouldn't they be given a helping hand? Think of the many millions who possess lucrative wealth on the who now possess lucrative wealth on the money made while they fought in start toward a future home or prosperity ? Will you refuse them even a -chance?*' Think edict the bonus amy mean to them. Possibly the foundation of a home, maybe • start toward education, maybe a Gqd send to a sorely triad financial difficulty, braaght oa by the time they test There are Ms of mm who were wounded, bat act in a maaaer visible to the pabtk eye.

V ® Jut remember that if you vote "Yes" fc on the bonus question, on Tuesday, that you may be pulling a nail of dis- f comfort from a service man's shoe of t ■ Ufa. ; -r— ~ « Let's .go "over the top" for them, as j they went "over" for you. r "General" Disturbance. c •m » — v THEY "CAN GET OCT I OF THE PARTY " « b 1 The following dispatch to the North r American on Salem County's political e situation is interesting to "Cape, May g County and applies to our situation as t well as to that of Salem County, t . Governor Edwards has left nothing to the imagination as to his stand on the wet and dry issue and it jfs perfectly right to conclude that he has not con- _ seated to the nomination in any county ( of candidates for assembly or senate a not in accord with his views. . 0 The dispatch is as follows: j: "Pennsgrove, N. Ji, Oct. 21.— Con- j siderable pep was injected into the present campaign yesterday by the l publication in one oiff the county papers of copy of a letter that Henry Burt Ware, member of the Democratic state committee .wrote to Dnaiel V. T Summerill, of this borough, when the t latter was a candidate this spring for f reappointment as prosecutor of Salem \ county. t W»re is now the Democratic can- t ; didate for state senator against Col- ] lins B. Allen, Republican, and the ] party organ and the speakers at the j j mass meetings have evaded any state- t ■ | ment of how their candidate stood On j :(the wet and dry question that is giv- , ' I ing quite a lot of concern to the vot- j '' ers of Salem county, especially the < ! women. i r All doubt as to the attitude of Ware ( ' and the party in the state and county j stand regarding liquor are settled by I ] the letter. Ware said in his letter to j ] ' | Summerill that "the party today is j 1 I committed to a strictly wet policy"! | and "whoever runs for office or takes ) c office under this administration must , t . be in sympathy with its policies and • J not lukewarm." 1 ■ He further declares that "the New 1 5 1 Jersey delegation that goes to San ; j Francisco in June will be committed j ; to a strictly wet policy, and any Detn- ] j oc^ats whose conscientios scruples ' j won't permit them to vote that way , - 1 can get out of the party.* i M 1 STRANGE BUT TRUE i, 1 Strange that the whole Democratic a i organization should be struggling by % I every means in its power, not to omit o j the senseless -abuse of its opponents, h the distortion of fact and Absolute 1. 1 falsehood to do what? To force the e United States into position of being o responsible for the' whole world and - compelled to use its resources,- the e savings of its" people, its young men e and young women, at the demand of a any European power whose boundaries n i fixed by the peace conference, shall ; d be invaded at any time by i any European power. This is not a - 1 conjecture or- a supposition. It is a j s ] fact. The'- boundaries fixed by the j 1, peace conference are guaranteed by > y - every power -which- signs the -treaty j a without reservations, and what is a j c guarantee ? It is something to be [ e made good and whatever the means i necessary must be employed by the | e guaranteeing power. This means j :- the employment of the army and navy, ir This cannot be evaded. President , st Wilson made no effort to evade it dur- 1 i, ing his negotiations as has been abunie dantly proven." Would not the United i, States have 4 beautiful time if she n were let in for an^thing.of this kind ? s, Compulsory military training for all y would be absolutely necessary in order that we might be ready to supply 3 on demand, cannon fodder for European battlefields. * — > ^ * NOT THE DEMOCRATIC BUT THE AUTOCRATIC PARTY it * The Democratic party has no part ie in the present campaign.

The situation is somewhat analogous to tg that which existed during the civil - 16 ' war.
