HOMES AS LIFE INSURANCE.
The Novel Tian OF Company Organized
by Newarkers.

by Newarkers.
A number Of we'll known Newarkers
have recently filed with the Secretary
of State the certificate of incorporation
of company having novel and inter
esting object. The name is "Hhe Home
Purchase and Loan Company of New
Jersey" Its object is to encourage
men to secure money to buy homes and
other real estate by enabling them to
pay for them in instalments not exceed
ing the ordinary monthly rent OF such
houses, and to guard against losing the
homes by the death of the borrower.
The company Will advance from sixty
to eighty per cent. on the valuation OF
property secured by mortgage, the
terms OF which provide for reducing pay
ments, which can be made monthly,
quarterly, half yearly or annually for
period OF five, ten, fifteen or twenty
years. as the applicant may choose. IL
is said that the amount will not exceed
fair or ordinary rent, and so payments
will decrease yearly, growing easier as
the applicant grows older. The appli-
cant of course must pass medical ok.
animation. The payments cover and in
clude all dues, and IL the applicant lives
and pays during the period for which
the money is advanced. he will have
paid all indebtedness to the company
and will then own property free and
clear Of all encumbrance. II, however,
he should die before the expiration Of
the term, the mortgage taken by the
company TO secure the indebtedness is
cancelled without further payment.
A company operating under similar
plan was started in Philadelphia about
two years and half ago, and has been
very successful, having loaned out a
million and half OF dollars. It's stock,
when last quoted, was sold ct an advance
of fifty per cent. on it's par value. The
company proposes to advance money
upon city and town property, and mort.
cages now upon real estate can be as
signed to it and made payable on the in
stalment plan according to it's system.

Judge johnson, of Cambria county, has
licensed over 100 saloons In Johnstown
and vicinity. While the destroyed dis
trict was under martial law and General
Hastings ruled, liquor selling was not al
lowed. On July 8th Gen. Hastings gave
up the post he had SO ably filled, and on
that day the Judge ordered all the sa-
looms in the valley to be opened. On that
night Johnstown was full Of drunken
men, and disorder reigned everywhere.
A number of complaints were lodged,
and detail was sent out to enforce order.
Gen. Hastings sent telegram to the
Judge, saying that opening the saloons
was the worse calamity that could befall
the valley. The response is not recorded.
These facts are set forth in the Philadel-
phia Press Of Tuesday.

The West Jersey Press says that to win
10 New Jersey this Fall it will be neces-
sary for the Republicans to force the
fighting from the start, and that 1t Is use
less to attempt success by luke-warm,
half-hearted campaign. To which the
Morristown Jerseyman responds: We
agree with the Press. The Gubernatorial
Convention should be called early, a
strong candidate named, and an emphatic
declaration made in favor of High License
aud Local Option, followed by complete
aud thorough canvass of the State by Ca
pable speakers in which every school dis
trict should be covered. We have every
thing to gain and nothing to lose by such
canvass. The more widely and earnest
ly the issues now dividing parties in New
Jersey are discussed, the more certain
will be Republican victory.

nations had done the State out Of some-

proven to be totally unfounded, and it
is doubted if the State gets enough out

the litigation.

When landowners erect sign-b board
upon their premises warning people not
to trespass upon their grounds, 1t is not
done merely for ornament, as some PEG.
pie evidently imagine, but is intended in
brief language to express the owners
positive objection to such trespass. The
law makes 1t an act of trespass to go up
on cultivated or enclosed lands for any
purpose without permission of the owner,
even II there is no sign-board, and the
owner is entitled to recover actual dam
ages for such trespass. When sign-boards
are properly erected persons who trespass
upon land SO guarded are liable not only
to pay actual damages, but also penalty.

Chicago. by the annexation of Hyde
Park, Lake View, jefferson and Cicero,
previously suburbs of Chicago, has be-
come territorially the largest city in the
Union. 1t now covers an area Of 100
miles, and, with this annexation, has
population of about 100000, which
makes It in population the third IL not
the second city in the United States. -
Philadelphia claims population of L.
200, 900; and If this is a correct estimate,
as is probably the fact, then Chicago must,
for the present at least, be contented with
the third instead Of the fourth city In the
Union, aud in this respect with having
changed places with Brooklyn, whose
population is set down at about 900, 600.
The growth Of Chicago within the last
fifty years Is marvellous development Ia
the history Of cities. It's present terri
torial area admits of vast increase in
population; and in tho next fifty years
the population win probably be more
than doubled. A country, that can, 10 a
comparatively short time, produce such
great cities as New York, Philadelphia,
Chicago and Brooklyn, has in it the Gle.
ments of great industrial and commercial
thrift. Cities In this country, more than
10 Europe, are the product VI purely ma
tnral causes. -Independent.
