snort story with a Moral.

Some of the readers of the MONITOR
well recollect a little circumstance which
occurred many years ago II the names
of the persons who were the principals in
the transaction. Near the close of the late
war, when the quotas of enlisted men
from counties and townships had to be
filed by paying large bounties to men
wherever they could be found, a certain
township in Gloucester county was re-
quired on one occasion to raise twenty vol
unteers. At a called meeting of the town
ship committee a committee of two was
appointed with authority to offer four hun
bred dollars bounty for the needed num-
Der of volunteers. This committee of two,
with the necessary funds, went up to Tren-
ton where they secured, greatly to their
satisfaction, all the men they wanted for
three hundred and fifty dollars. Congrat-
ulating themselves upon their good sue
cess they retired for the night relieved of
the important and responsible duty impos-
ed upon them. Toward morning, after a
refreshing sleep, one of them awoke and
set to thinking. The thoughts which per-
yadcd his mind are known only to him
self, but he thought something like this:
s'Myself and my companion were author
lied by the committee in the township
which we represent to pay four hundred
dollars bounty to the men we engage to
help fill the quota. We have got them for
fifty dollars less. Now why not put the
balance, fifty dollars, in our own
pockets and say nothing about it," When
his companion awoke he made the pro-
posal to him, but his bedfellow refused to
do any such thing, r%emarking that he had
lived too long in this world to engage in
any kind of bad work now. The subject
was at once dropped. Tho committee re-
turned home, reported their good success
and handed over to the township commit
tee the balance of the bounty money en-
trusted to their care. Some years after
ward it so happened n fall that one of
those very men who went to Trenton to
raise men for the war, had his name placed
on the ticket for a public Office and the
other member of the committee then, and
not until then, gave him away.
The moral is this; Before a man has his
name placed on nomination for an Office of
trust he had better first go carefully over
his private record. PA~NrsINBoors

Mr.. MoNIToR:-While passing dow
Main street on Tuesday evening | met two
single teams near the central part of the
town racing. They were side to sic and
going at utmost speed. No woman or
child was crossing the street at the time,
and nobody's life was in jeopardy during
the race, consequently no casualty occur
red. Many pedestrians cross the main high
way in our borough after dark, and some
in front of vehicles going at a smart gait.
When a race is started the drivers are too
highly excited to look out for persons cross
ing the street and undiscernable in the thick
gloom. If there is an ordinance prohibit
ing fast driving within the borough limits
should not every ~violator thereof be brought
to an account for Needless conduct There
NAV be a thousand more horse races in the
borough after dark without an accident,
but as the adage goes the safest plan is al
WAYS the best, and the safest thing for our
honorable Mayor and Council is To keep the
door locked lest the colt be stolen. mother
words, if somebody gets run over and hurt
by a reckless driver the driver will he
blamed for his recklessness, and the au-
thorities censured for allowing the practice
of racing within the town limits. Enforce
the ordinance. CITIZEN
