The Republican "Clarion Call''
would convey the impression that Gov.
ALBEIT is bankrupting the State. Gov.
Albeit in 4 speech Wednesday night
said: ''Ihe fact is that the State has
never been 50 well off financially. The
current expenses of the State were $1S,-
600 less this year than last year. The
$500, 600 floating debt which the State
owed has been paid, and many improve
meDts, costing thousands of dollars,
have been made during my admins
tration. The Republicans do not tell
you that not one dollar of tax has been
levied on either corporation or citizen
in addition to that levied when | came
into Office, but such is the fact. There
has been 10 Office created which was
unnecessary, and there was nc expense
iucDrred which was not proper. The
fact is that New Jersey stands to-day I'M
der Democratic Administration where
it has not stood since 1885. 1t closes
the fiscal year without a dollar of debt,
aud the citizens have not been called on
to contribute IL dollar of State tax to
pay the expenses of the State Govern.
ment. The only State lax is the school
tax, and as long as l am Governor il
shall be the only tax. The Republicans
never appoint Democrats. Let them
turn us out when they are in control
and We will do the same whenever il
comes our way.

The charge of extravaganza on the
present Democratic State government
falls fiat when all are reminded that not
a farmer. merchant or laborer has to
pay a cent tax towards it. They did
before Leon Albeit became Governor,
but since, the railroads and corpora
tions have been made to foot the bills.
Everybody is satisfied with that but

cans creates the partisanship of the

pleads guilty, but just keep in mind
that a Republican legislature stripped
Gov. Green of every app0intive office
possible and made the judiciary as par.
tisan Republican as possible, and have
had the legislative districts gerrymand-
cred in their interest for 20 years. Now

The farmers of Salem county want
legislation. Vote for William F. Hunt,
the Republican candidate, who is a
farmer, and knows what the farmers
of Salem county want.-So. Jerseyman.
If farmers want legislation how is Mr..
Hunt going to procure it in a political
minority? Where and when have the
farmers expressed a want for legisla.
ton? Farmers do need it, but it is to
be relieved of The Republican kind on
the statue books. James Strimple was
raised IA poor boy on the farm and he
knows what it is TO scratch dirt like some
of the rest of us. He sells as much
produce for farmers of Oldmans and
Upper Penn's Neck as any other sales
man, consequently he knows what
farmers need under a Deneticent (?)
protective tariff which gives a high
priced ~ home market, with sweet
potatoes bringing 15c. a basket and
water melons from So to SIS per hun
dred. Farmers are getting the best
returns now from grain which is sold
in the free trade market of the world i n
competition with the pauper labor of
India. The Legislation farmers need
most is that which will allow them to
buy their clothing in the free trade
market of the world as they now do
their sugar.

1t is Il well-known fact among fisher
men that the upriyer fishermen would
like TO have Che shad nets of the lower
River and Bay cut down, a three days
law and a4sunrise law in order to give
shad a chance to run up the river 10
their pools. Such a thing would not
only deprive our fishermen of a right to
work at certain times but also a CON
siderable part of their profits which
they are eptitled to by virtue of their
better location. The surest way to pre-
vent this is TO return James Strimple to
the Assembly and save the expense of
having TO send him there rs a delegate
to look after the tishermen's interest.
AS he was on the Fisheries committee
last winter, if reelected, he will prob
ably be chairman of the committee
next winter and have a most powerful
influence on legislation in favor or
against Salem county's fishing interest

TURNED INTO STONE.

Many Petrified Bodies Exhumed in the
Troy Hill Cemeteries One Was
Changed Inside of Five Years-Every
Feature Is Still Perfect
In exhuming bodies from the old Troy
Hill Cemetery for re-interment, several
have been discovered to be petriied. On
last Monday two bodies were removed that
had turned to stone. w. G. Wolf, who has
been grave digger of the cemetery for years,
stated they were the remains Of Mary
Mang and Anthony Heinke. The latter
was well-kDown resident of Troy Hill, who
died about five years ago from dropsy.
When the casket was reached and opened it
was found that the body was almost as per-
feet as the day it was buried. The features
were distinct and the greater part Of the
body solid and stony. In the case of Mary
Mang, who was inferred two years ago, it
was similar. Her body was in an excellent
state of preservation. She was removed to
the Perrysville Cemetery.
George Hertman, grave digger for the
Smithheld Cemetery, which adjoins the
Catholic burying ground, stated he had q
similar experience. About % years ago
Rev. Mr.. Walter, one of the first ministers
of the old Smithfield NJ. E Church, died
and was buried in Smithfeld Cemetery.
Two years ago the remains were removed to
Homewood Cemetery. His son, who was
living in New York, came on to be present
at the reinterment When the body was
eyhumed it was found to be almost perfect,
the features not being altered in any re-
spect. The facial expression had remained
so intact that, although never having seen
the son of the deceased, Mr.. Hertman said
that he very readily recognized them as
very near relatives. The body was so heavy
that it required seven men to lift it from
the grave.
Peter Roth, who has been about the
Catholic Cemetery during the removal of
the bodies, related the following: Valentine
Guntling, an old friend of his, who resided
on Ohio street, and was at one time q
constable in the Thirteenth ward, died
some six years ago. Last week the body
was exhumed and there was no appearance
Of any change having taker place. Mr..
Roth was at the funeral and remembers dis
tinctly the appearance of the deceased. To
make sure, Mr. Roth felt the body of the
dead man and pressed on his chest, but it
was as firm and solid as stone. The hair
was well preserved and the features intact
There are numerous cases of the kind that
have occurred during the past two years.
The soil in Troy Hill is very uniform,
consisting mainly of limestone and clay.
Although the cemeteries are situated on
high ground, the grave diggers say when
the bodies are exhumed they are always
lying in from two to three inches of water.
On account of the high elevation the only
explanation is that it is surface water which
soaks through the clay and limestone.

Interest in That Organization Revived Last
Night at Carnegie Hall.
The Historical Society of Western Penn
svlvania met last evening in the lecture
room at Carnegie Hall, Allegheny. There
was large attendance. The meeting was
probably the most interesting that has oc-
Cured for many months The cheerful sur
roundi1gs, the presence of so many spec
tators and the desire of the members to give
the society fresh impetus infused consider
able life into the meeting.
The first paper presented was that by Mr..
Thomas Harper, entitled, "Prehistoric Man
in America" and contained . careful re-
view of the indications that show indis-
putably that America has had primitive
race as primeval as that of any country or
of any age. The trend of the speakers
argument was that the monuments of
antiquity in America indicate prehistoric
occupants, having governments and possess
ing many customs of civilization; that they
were not tn. ancestors of the Indians. but
a people who came from the North and To-
Gated in the South.
Rev. Father A. A Lambing read a paper
entitled, "Western Pennsylvania as Field
for Historic Investigation. The paper
covered the period from the earliest settle
ment in Western Pennsylvania to the pres
ent time, including short biographical
sketches of prominent characters who have
formed history in this State, and especially
in the western part. and drew from these
sketches the conclusion that it is an excep-
tionally fertile field for historical cleaning
Both papers were adopted. Two new
members were elected They were Walter
Gallery and James Bergstresser.

At to-day's meeting the stock held in
trust by Brown, Shipley & Co. to be voted
at the annual election, was voted for the

were thus duly elected. An objection to

basis for future litigation. The English

question about their election OF directors in
