political situation so far as the natives are
concerned. Both the parties are still en-
camped in the positions they have oecu-
pied for several months past. Aataafa's
men have not given the slightest intima-
ton that they intended TO take
dition of the Germans, and
it is not thought they will make any at
tack upon Tamase's forces pending the
Berlin conference The German consul.
DR.. Knappe, is still pursuing the spirited
course which has always characterized bis
administration of affairs here, notwith-
standing the noble work of the Samoans
in saving the lives of the Germans during
the storm. DR.. knappe posted printed
notices few days later declaring that the
Samoans daily steal the produce from TIE
German plantations and warning the pub
lie not to purchase anything from them.
Captain Fritze has not yet recovered from
the injuries received during the storm.

If this assertion is correct land it cannot
be successfully controyerted) the first thing
to do is to annihilate the saloons. That
can only be done by ballots.
Many a strong oak has withstood all at
tempts of the wind to uproot it; but, never
theless, a cyclone has taken it mp by the
roots as if it was bnt a sapling.
A cyclone of Prohibition votes would
take the saloons of this country by the
roots and shake the life and soul out OF
them. And that cyclone can be nursed in
to activity and brought to bear upon the
curse any day of the year that the
members of the different churches agree on.
When the church of Christ unitediy, de-
t~erminedIy. and prayerfulIy hurls itself
against the root of any evil, that evil will
be torn up and shattered to pieces. No
power on earth can resist that force, for it
is the force of omnipotence Geo. X. Scott.

Innu~nee ora BeautifnI story.

Mrs. S. NJ. |. Henry, author of 1.-THE
Voice of the Home, or How Roy went
West" tells the following story with re-
gard TO it:
1.-THE Voice OF the Home had found its
way with the other books of mine, and 9TH
er of your authors, to a Mississippi town,
and a bright young lady had become very
much interested in Roy" A friend of
hers had married a wine-drinking husband.
They had the stuff in their home. a son
came to them and our young lady claimed
a promise made her in their schoolgirl days
that she should name her friends first child.
Her claim was granted, and she named
him Roy" after the hero of my book.
Later she sent the mother the book with a
note, saying that she prayed that their lit
tie Roy might be saved from the things
that spoiled the life of Roy Mason.
The result is that the wine is banished-
the father has given mp its use entirely.
The little Roy is two and a half years old
| thought this was ECO good for me to en-
joy all by myself. The story was told me
by a lady who knows all parties"

CLOTHING! CLOTHING
LOTHING

We read of large stocks of cloth
ing and low prices. It's an easy
matter to write a flaming advertise
ment, but sometimes difficult to sus-
tain assertions by facts. We don't
aim to say anything in our
advertisements about our goods
that is not strictly true. 1t is we'll
known that our stock is at all times
the largest by far of any in this
county. There is none larger in
any town in South Jersey. 1t is as
well known that we are in position
to buy cheaper than others and at
all times prepared and willing to
work on close profits. This season
we are better fixed than ever be-
fore. We had most of our stock
made expressly to our own order.
Now therefore take notice, that if
you want TO save from one to FIVE
dollars on the purchase of a single
suit or overcoat, come 70 headquar-
tiers where you get full returns for
every penny you invest.
Buyers from Swedesboro, Salem
or Alloway, whose purchases
amount to TEN DOLLARS or
over, will have their fare paid both
ways.
We have yet to hear the first
complaint of our Lester Boots,
but on the contrary all speak well of
them. They COST NO MORE
THAN OTHER MAKES, and you
may as well have the best. Don't
forget us when you want to buy.
Our Ladies' Genuine Pebble Goat
Button Shoe, with worked Button
Holes, at sI.25 is a daisy. See a
sample pair in the window, or go in
side and inspect. All kinds of shoes
for Ladies', Misses and Children,
also Boys and Men. Low prices
for good goods.

Rum Eor

Just outside the city OF Boston there is
a distillery that is to fill a contract for g.
900 gallons of run every day for seven sue
cessive years. Over a million gallons a
year, and nearly eight million gallons in
the seven years. And what for? What
for, you ask. For the benighted heather
people in the Congo Valley in Africa. Rum,
so bad too, that it cannot be sold in this
country. Rum that COSTS cents a gallon to
make il. but from which the United States
government gets 90cents a gallon, or So, 700
a day revenue. In the light of that awful
fact, how consistent is it for a Christian
people to sing:
"From Greenland's icy mountains,
From India's coral strand,
Where Afric's sunny fountains
Roll down their golden sand.
"and shall we whose souls are lighted
With wisdom from on high,
Shall we to men benightcd
The lamp of flight deny.
"Then waff. ye winds His story,
And you We waters roll,
Till ike a sea of glory,
1t spreads from pole to POLE
Yes, shall we whose souls are lighted
with wisdom from on high, shall we to men
benighted, send, and by the millions.of gal
Ions, that which will still benight, curse
and destroy them yet more and more as the
years go by.

As the assessor has been abroad in the
Land and the tax collector soon will he,
the following brief showing Of how the
public funds are disposed of in the cities
of New York and Paris, France, may not
be uninteresting. They were complied for
the Philadelphia Public Leaqer aud are
doubtless reliable.
The cost of the government of the City of
New York next year will be, according to
the tabuiated statement of the Board of
Estimate and Apportionment. $50, 264 249
II. This includes ) ,G68, 249 19. the
amount Of the taxes assessed by the States;
and -, 800, 900, the amount OF the interest
on the bonded debt. Estimating the pop
ulation Of the city at ] 500, 600. the annual
expenses amount To about set IS psr cap.
tia. For this expenditure, each man,
woman and child in the city is supposed to
receive protection against crime and fire,
and the benefits Of well paved, cleaned and
illuminated streets, free parks, free schools
the care of the poor and insane and courts
for the administration of justice. Strange
to say, the cost per capita Of the govern
ment of New York is almost the same as
that Of Paris. The Chamber OF Commerce
has lately received from the Mayor of Par
is a detailed statement of the annual ex-
penses Of the French metropolis. The to-
tai mount required for the yearly
charges excepting the interest on tie debt,
is 1e3, 2G1 1852 francs, or about So, 900, coo.
The interest on the debt amounts to 90. $50
liz francs, or about $50, 900. 900. The to-
tai charges, including the interest on the
debt, are therefore about S57, 000, 900. The
Mayor gives the popnlationofPar lin 1866
as 2,344, $50. 50 that the cost per capita
is S24 30, or 12 cents more than that of last
year. This, Oh the face, looks very favor
able for New York, but if the interest on
the debts of the two cities is not included
the computation and account taken only
of the current expenses for police and fire
protection, education, care of streets, parks
etc. the cost per capita in Paris is only
about SO IS, while 10 New York it is about
$50 &c. Them every traveller knows how
vastly superior is Paris to New York in
the cleanliness of its streets, and in nearly
every particular that makes n city A d .sir-
able place of residence. Paris expends
about 81 $40, 900 a year in the cleaning Of
the streets, while New York this year ex-
pended nearly as much, or $l,2T2, 0i0.
but this statement takes no aecoun. of the
difference in the population and in the area
covered, or of the superiority of the work
as done in Paris to that in this city.
IF it was not for the fact that the State
Board ofAssessors discriminate against
this city in favor of the rest of the State,
and has added 81 1914 2 AZ to the taxes.
the municipal charges would be less next
year than they were this by S7e7, 400 80.

The Republicans Of New Jersey might
just as we'll as anyhow file a quit claim on
the Office Of Governor and hand that de-
partment over to the Democrats indefinite
ly. They have it, the office, and it grows
on the party apace. Leon Abbett's cleo
tion makes the eighth Democratic Cover
nor chosen in succession in this State.
Their names and majorities were as fol
lows: Randolph in 1868, by 1888 major
ity; Parker in 1871, by 1910 majority;
Bedle IN 1874, by l3, 233 majority; NC
Clellan In 1877. by IL, 7I3, Ludlow in 1890,
by 851; Albeit in 1888, by G, 300; Green in
1886, by 5000; Albeit this year about
1900.
II the Republicans had been wise IN
their generation and tackled on to the Fisk
vote Of 10, s0s the 101, 9l9 they threw away
on Howey, they would rave beat Green
by II, 1873 votes and had a Republican
Governor in addition. Since sc they
haven't had the ghost Of a chance and
could not have elected Grub this year
had the whole Prohibition vote been with
them, and it is just possible that the child
is not yet born who will see a Republican
Governor for this State.

I Drunk and disorderly-so 1t was said,
Into the courtroom the culprit was led.
There on her dark and u~nwomanly face
| fingered the signs of her shame and disgrace.
Soiled with the mud in whose depths she had
lain
All the sweet Instincts of modesty slain
standing 80 boldly there,
Waiting 50 coldly there,
Hearing her sentence with sullen disdain.
sternly the justice looked down from his
seat
Down at the woman who stood at his feet;
Wondering how she had wandered so far
From the clear heights where the virtuous
are.
All. how uniovely she seemed in her gloom,
There in that dismal and crowded courtroom,
TTeading u~nthinkingly.
Going unshrinkingly
On to the depths of her terrible doom.
Suddenly, strangely, his features grew mild,
There on her breast lay a pure little child,
Smiling at him with such innocent eyes.
Blue in their depths as the bonny blue skies.
over her shoulder it struggled to climb.
Sweetly unconscious of sorrow or crime,
Laughing 50 merrfiy,
Beautiful, verify
Fair a. a Iiiy-bud found in the slime.
softly he spoke to the woman-and then
Out from that din, noisy courtroom again
Bore she her baby, with taltering tread
reed for the sake Of that innocent head.
Just for q moment the bonny wee child
backward looked over her shoulder and
smiled;
Lying 80 swcctly there
Cursed so completely there,
by the foul touch OF those fingers defled.
sadly the Justice bent over his BOOK,
Asking himself, as he thought of that look,
Through what dark pathways of sin and deeait
Fortune would carry those small, winsome
feet.
All, that "a blossom 50 tender should rest
There on that hard and unwomanly breast.
One so undutiful
Crowned with the beautiful.
Sin by the glory of motherhood blest.
Think of it. fathers, when sweet eyes of brown
Watch thro' the window your coming from
town

harm,
Keeping her safe from all thought OF alarm
Kissing, caressing her,
Lovingly pressing her
Close to your heart fin your heltering arm.

take possession of the heart.
Intemperance will continue while the sa
