For Europe, Africa is the country of
the future. America has been tolerably
well occupied by the white man. So has
Australia. Africa is the only rich new
continent that has not yet wholly yielded
to his sway. In the next hundred years
immense wealth will be realized there.
A question of the greatest interest is
whether the negro will vanish before the
white man, as the red Indian has done
In America, as the aborigines have done
in Australia. As to that, in the United
States, where the African negro is not
native, but was transplanted, he not
only holds his own in numbers against
the white man, but is claimed by race
alarmists to be even gaining on him..
Perhaps the all conquering white man
cannot blot out the negro from Africa.

Some idea of the Importance of
Hancock as market may be had
800, 900 bushels of wheat were handled
here. This shows that there was
some wheat raised by the farmers liv-
ing in the section naturally tributary
to this market, and also that our grain
buyers paid fair price for the grain
brought here. The truth is, Hancock
is good place to sell the products of
the farm, and u good place to buy far
mers' supplies. That's the truth, the
whole truth, and nothing but the
truth.

During the political campaign two
years ago the coming fall, j. G. Han
cock, who was running for the office
Of register of deeds, visited our village
and pretended to be greatly surprised
when he discovered that "Hancok
had side track When J. G.. re-
| turned to Morris he met Gilti-
nau, who was running for auditor,
and said to him: Say, Giltinan,
did you know that they had a side
track down ut Hancock ?n mo" said
Glltinan, ~ paid no attention to side
tracks; 1 did my electioneering on
the main track
This is the time of the year, says an
exchange, when the health officer Is
supposed to get a move on himself and
see that the rubbish, ETC., that has &C.
cumulated during the winter in allies
and out houses Is removed and to
otherwise keep q vigilant eye on the
sanitary condition of our city. How
ever careful we may be through the
winter, a certain amount Of refuse
matter is bound to accumulate and
the moment it is possible to do so we
should see that it Is removed aud got
ten rid Of. II you know there is u
mass Of rubbish In your back yard,
don't wait for some one to call and
tell you about it, but have enough for
your own health and the health OF
your family to remove 1t at once; II
you don't the health officer will be
justified in interviewing you with q
club.

One state after another is adopting the
Australian ballot system. Those that
do not like 1t can repeal the law under
which it works, after while. But
meantime, if any person cannot vote be-
cause of being unable to read and write,
the remedy is very easy. One with a de-
termined rvill can learn TO read and write
before next election.

Jerseys Liberal Law.

During the year 1889 the secretary Of
State issued 701 certificates of incorpora-
ton. At the time it was considered a
large number, bat the returns for 1890
thus far promise to double the number.
During the month of June alone 1870 eerti-
ficates OF incorporation were issued, and
during the six months just closed Cos arti-
fetal citizens were created.
Surprise is expressed at this wonderful
growth of corporations, and queries made
as to the cause. The solution is given hat
New Jersey treats corporations more fair
ly than the surrounding states; its laws for
their creation are more beneficial, and its
taxes and fees of a less exaeting nature.
In New York and Pennsylvania corpor-
ations are compelled, besides paying the
Incorporation fees, to make large deposits
for the benefit of creditors, should tie Oh
ject of the company fail and insolvency re-
suit. This affords protection to creditors
of those states.
Dur state does not require this deposit,
except in case of banking, savings, trust,
guarantee, safe deposit, indemnity, mort
gage, Investment, loan and building cor
porations or associations organized under
the laws of other states or foreign govern
ments. Another attraction is the uniform
and low tax rate of this State compared
with ~neighborimg states.

Suit for Breaeb of Promise.

George b. Lawrence, who is the best
friend of Jessie T. Dancer, on Monday
filed a statement of claims against Harry
Decker to recover $40, 600 for breach of
promise of marriage In Common Pleas
Court No. 2, Philadelphia. The ayerment
states that Jessie made the acquaintance
of Harry Decker on January Q, 1890, by
being employed by him at his place OF
business, at No. lib Market street, where
she was engaged to work upon base ball
gloves. He was a professional base ball
player, and was the catcher for the Phil
adelphia base ball club, and has been since
engaged in following the same avoeation.
He addressed his attentions to the plain
tiff a few days after their acquaintance,
and he requested permission to visit her at
No. 627 North Second street where she
lived. He placed a ring upon her finger
and requested her to become his bride,
and an engagement was entered into be-
tween them. The date was fixed WHEN
the marriage should take place, but pre-
yions to that time it was ascertained by
Jessie that Decker was already married,
and that he had a wife living in the city al
though Jessie did not know he was a
married man. She was then willing to
comply, but he knew he could not fulfill
his promise when he made it, and it was
given to cruelty deceive and wrong her.
The facts are sworn to by Jessie {. Dan
cer-McCartney to be true to the best Of her
knowledge and belief. Miss Dancer is a
granddaughter Of Geo. Lawrence, Of
Yorktown.
