The STAR & WAVE will be neutral, as always, except when, in our judgment, the interests of the public dejpand . sa»that we -boost one man rather than another. We have no axe to grind, and our expressions are removed from partiality or persgpai prejudice. The chief thing we ire interested in is in seeing a BUSINESS-LIKE GOVERNMENT, in citjy, county, state and nation. Honest, {clear thinking voters look upon public administrations, as a business corporation, which in reality, they are. Dishonest and J unthinking voters think \ of govern- % ment in its ideal sense, as public £ funds and favors in the corrupt con- £ trol of their dishonest friends- Njntil j the great majority begins to reatXe > that municipal corporations can only > be run successfully by the same meth-' v ods that private corporations are run, £ we^will suffer from the machinations £ of Pork Barrel Politicians. /■ There are- many people to whom £■ the moral issue of honesty does not J appeal. To those we say, for the millionth time, that honesty IS the best i policy. They must realize that -the £ same corrupt officials who a^p doling f, out the plums to them, are doling out V the plums to Tom, Dick, and Harry, C who also helped to sneak them in the CT back door of the public treasury. The coat of all these plums to the individ- » ual exceeds, in most cases, the value a of the plums he is getting. - • S But, we believe and hope, the ma- Vl jority of voters are honest. To these, £j wfe say vote after an earnest and in- C telligent consideration of the merits ** and qualifications of the candidate. « Every taxpayer is a stockholder in » -four public corporations. The city, Vj borough, or township, the county, the ^ state, and the nation. Election Is' /Jj comparable to a meeting for the purpose of selecting a Board of Directors — for that corpoAtion. Directors of _ Successful corporations are elected be- ■ cause of their honesty, their farsight- )>{ edness, their representative fitness, ■ and THEIR RECORD OF PAST > BU6INESS SUCCESS. The taxpayer & should remember that, just as the pri- H vate stockholder, he is selecting a man to handle his money, to spend it I - wisely, and to show returns in gooa X government, on the investment rep- H resented by taxes. Unless thes- V? things are accomplished, the^overn- Hj ment, for the time, is a failuW in the 0 same way that a business, failing to u show returns, is a failure. Many of the so-called "hard-headed Jeja busines men" seem to have a sudden ■! and deprecable softening of the brain X around election time. They vote be- H cause "The man is a good friend of Vf mine," "He is a neighbor," or "He MM has always been nice to me." It Is H safe to say that far more men have u been electe<l because they "have been H nice" and those elected because they X are successful business men. j-: It is time for the passing of the V hand-shaking politician, or the honey fi worded orator. Men who have made 8 a success of private life ape the only £& ones who will ever make a public H success. IF Let us be done with profesional I - politicians, dummies, desk fillers, X marionettes, and grafters. We want Ijj no more government of the people, V by the politiciftintnd for the poliji- A cians> but a goverrtment of the people ™ by capable representatives, and ' for === prosperity and improvement. - NOTICE TO "BIDDERS .* TTie Board of Education of the Borough of Cape May Point, N.

The correct flame is blue. If the flame H '8 while or yellow, the mixture of gas and air entering the burner X is imijerfectK^Tbis can be remedied by adjusting the air shutter ^ I on the mixing lube, or, lin extreme cases, by adjusting the size of X » thc gas orifice. H A yellow flame is wasteful. Furthermore, it deposits soot at ■ the bottom of pots and pans. If you have a coil-type water heat- w )!( er> see that the coils are kept free from soot by brushing them at H I frequent intervals. The soot acts as an insulator, and considerably X S more gas is required to get hot water than when the ooils are I H clean. Of course, with dirty, greasy burners you can not expect to S obtain maximum results from your gas service. It is just as ■ ■ necessary to clean gas burners as it is to clean windows. ■ Cape May Light and Power Co. S ■ f Cape May, N. J. ■ XBXBXBXBXBXBXBXBXBXBXBXB " Quaker Sweet Shop AND CONFECTIONERY SHOP.
