WINTER TO FLORIDA.

That Florida is to be the haven of
refuge and recreation this year is main.
ifested by the travel already directing
itself there. To meet the demand of

Supreme Court Clerk Lee anticipates
a short session of the Legislative at
which much that the Republicans fear
will not be done. "Gov. Albeit" he
remarks, ''seems to have the call on the
nomination for U. 5. Senator to sue
coed Blodgett. He is by no mean as
aggressive as he was formerly. He
grows older and wiser, and lie will,
necessarily, advise Il conservative
course, for any wholesale overturning
of State, county, Congressional and
Legislative lines would be by no means
certain to strengthen the party. NV
Judgment is that as Governor ADbett is
Il candidate for United States Senator,
the coming session will be more Of a
business than a political session, and
that there will bo no great upheayal or
revolution in State politics and l pre-
dict that the Legislative term will be
short and uneventful."

The following interesting dialogue
occurred the other day in Mercer Court
between Prosecutor Stockton and u
local druggist, who was on the witness
stand:
PROSECUToR-What did you charge
for the medicine you sold the defend
ant?
DRUGGIsT-I can't remember.
PRosLCUToR-Well, what do you
usually charge for this quantity of the
medicineP
DRUGGIsT-Well, that depends.
Observation-Disclosures OIL what?
DRUGGIsT-Well it might cost one
person so cents, another 40, another %,
and another 10. 1t depends on the APP
pearance of the person.
PRosECUToR-Then that's the way
a druggist regulates his profts-on the
appearance of the costumer.
DRUGGIsT-That's it. (Laughter.)

ton of the Legislature.
After careful consideration Of the
entire subject, and with an earnest
desire to suggest some practical meth
DDS of relief. | have reached the con-
clusion that. independent of intelligent
action oil the part of the farmers to
adapt themselves to the changed cOndi-
ton of affairs, as suggested by the Sec
retary of the State Board in his report,
the greatest measures of relief must
come from Congress. 1t is the duty Of
the Legislature, however, TO do all that
lies within its constitutional powers to
relieve this industry from unjust bur-
dens.
COMPULSORY EDUCATION.
The Labor Inspector complains that
the city and to Snship authorities have
not afforded the Bureau the proper sup
port that they should in the enforce
ment of the law with reference to CON-
pulsory education. lie states that the
cities of Orange, Newark and Hoboken
were the only ones that have complied
with the law and have efficient truant
departments.
lie recommends that a law he passed
which will compel the local authorities
in every place to have IN efficient tTu-
ant department; that no boy or girl
who is not 0ver IL years of age he ad-
mitted to factories without an examina-
ton in the primary studies; that the
title of the act of May 10, 1899, be
amended SO as to remove some consti-
tutional criticism.
BALLOT REFORM LAW.
| recommended in my inaugural mes
sag the passage of Il Ballot Reform
law. The Legislature passed the act
May IS, 1890. The operation of this
law has secured practical ballot reform
and honest elections in this State. The
law is the simplest and most efficient
act adopted in any of the States Of the
Union.
1t was to be expected that the pTac-
teal working of such an act might
develop the need of some amendments.
If any should be found necessary the
greatest care should be taken in draft
them not TO impair the efficiency of the
law.
The wisdom of the passage of this
act has been fully demonstrated; the
people of the State are entirely salts
fed with its operation; the elections
have been more %peaceable and orderly;
intimidation has been rendered impossi-
BILE, and bribery has been practically
eliminated from election contests.
No evil has resulted from the use of
official ballots previous to the election,
when used in connection with the pro-
vision in the act that the ballots should
be enclo ed in an official envelope, pro-
durable only at the polling place. The
election officers aid citizens of the
State have found no difficulty in the
working of the new law, and it COM
mends itself to the judgment of all
those in favor of pure elections and a
secret ballot.
The power Of revision vested in the
courts is So complete and ample, and so
that the incentive to commit
frauds by election officers or others is
entirely destroyed.

day. His speech on 1.-The Principals

an honest appeal to the moral sense,

said that it was the duty of the jury to
investigate the matter, and, if sufficient
evidence was secured, to indict not on
ly the bOokmakers but the persons who
permitted such violation of the law on
their premises, against whom a charge
of keeping Il d~isorderly house could be
found.

that in many localities there were ill.,
CAPABILITIES of assessment and violations
of the law. which demanded legislative
action; that unfair valuations were
made by some of the local tax assessors,
and that there should be some tribunal
beyond local control, with power TO
correct unfair assessments and enforce
existing laws. These assessments in
some cases result from a neglect of
duty, and in others from q wiltul vio-

Stabbed Cattle's Feet.

Cattle which stand much in the stable
are especially liable to that painful and
injurious disease--foul in the foot. When
any kind of filth becomes lodged be-
tween the hoofs that part becomes in
famed, swells and discharges matter,
while fungoid growth develops at the
same time. When a COW becomes thus
afflicted she loses flesh, strength and
milking power, and dairymen who wish
to keep their stock in good condition
cannot attend too carefully to their feet,
and, as a preventive of the disease, of
course, to the cleanliness of the stalls.
If the trouble does come up, the diseased
hoof should be washed, poulticed with
linseed, and afterward dressed with sui
phate Of copper or carbolic acid. The
foot should be kept clean and the COW
indoors to rest. Exchange.
