what the Vermont Commission lie Doing
in Way Of Preparation
The worlds Columbian commission for
Vermont have issued statement to the
Legislature, in which they say:
"ln the fail Of $40 tho inception OF the
worlds Columbian exposition Of 1898 was
hardly established, Little was then known
or could be ascertained Of the plan and
scope of the Undertaking and the well known
and commenGabie conservation OF our
Legislature Inserted itself and resulted in
the very small appropriation OF |30CO Tor
worlds far purposes. At special session
in 1871 something more was learned OF the
magnitude and extent Of the exposition and
the appropriation was correspondlng!y IN
creased to SIS, 900; but the state commits
sion orented by the act OF 1890 was restrict
ed to giving preference in the application of
the fund TO expenditures in aid of the OK
hibition Of agricultural products
"Nour commissioners, limited by this re-
strlction, as well as by the amount of the
appropriation, decided that it would be inn
practicable to erect a building upon the ak
position grounds unless other funds could
be relied upon for the purpose. Yet the
desirabilty OF having State building there
will not be questioned. 1t IS needed as
rendezvous for acqunintances. Under its
roof Nermonters scattered to distant poiuta,
again meot knsmen aud friends. From iis
attendants, our own people, unused TO Guy
life and unacQuanted with Chicago, can
obtain information and assistance The
! Sons OF Vermont in that city kindly offer
to furnish agents whose duty it shall be to
aid visitors from the state in securing
boarding places at reasonable prices, and
/ attend generally to their wants. The bene-
fits to be derived from the building extend
through social aud industrial life and are
inCalCulable.
Approaching these facts, we asked 100
sons and daughters Of Vermont to guarantee
each 500, making a fund of $40, 600. Our
appeal was most generously responded to,
and the list Of 100, TO the lasting honor of
the guarantors and the State, was readily
filled. But this response was not intended
as a subscription OF 500 each but guar
antee to tue commission tuat the State of

/ taking, would appropriate the necessary
fund, 10 meet them We do not believe 100

The Farmers, Alliance.

AT q meeting of the State Farmers
Alliance held at Trenton last Tuesday,
there was considerable said about the
new Peoples Party and what effect it
would have upon the Alliance. The
twenty-five delegates that assembled
there were unanimous in tl1efr expires
sion that the Alliance was making but
slow headway in this State because its
motives are misconstrued aud the field
is already occupied by other agricul-
tural associations. Secretary Il. B.
Opdyke, of Stanton, N. j., in an inter-
view, made the statement that the
growth of the Alliance in New Jersey
had not been as large as he had antici-
pated, but that it was easily explained,
because of the peculiar position of
New Jersey and the fact that the State
is more or less an industrial one in its
character. He continued that the AL
lance had taken no part in politics and
would take no part in the coming
campaign. He said that it was non.
political organization that had decided
to take no part in politics as body.

THE BIG SALE.
The wood Farm Appears Like a
FAIR Grounds.

ALI day Thursday the toll gate keep.
ers of either end of the Millville pike
did a rushing business, and The re-
ceipts must have been wav ahead of
any day within year or more.
More than thousand people were
in attendance at the big sale, they be-
ginlng to come about nine O'Clock and
keeping it up until after two. There
were farmers present from all over
Cumberland. and several from Salem
county and other places.
The farm looked good deal like a
big fair grounds, out in big pasture
field where the farming implements
had been arranged in big hollow
square.
B. F. Horner had pitched tent. aud
under it he established his fountain,
and he was kept pretty busy supply
ing the thirsty crowd all day long.
Down by the big grain barn John
Denn had a refreshment privilege.
He had On sale pies, cakes, sand wiches,
ice cream and fruit, and as there was
no place for one to secure dinner, it
can be readily believed that business
with him was good from about eleven
o'clock. Before night he sold out
everything almost clean.
The big sale began promptly at ten
o'clock in the morning, when Auction.
eer Hewitt mounted upon chair, and
from that time, until nearly six o'clock,
the sale continued without break,
no adjournment for dinner being en-
joyed. The farming implements,
wagons, harness, etc., brought good
prices considering the time of year.
After these things were disposed of,
the sale of the cattle began. Fifty
three head were sold, and bidding not
being very lively, the sale of stock
took some time. The best COWS sold
well, while the older ones did not bring
so.much money. Many of the COWS
were bought by parties out in Stoe
Creek and Hopewell.
Butcher Daniel Souder purchased
the forty sheep and lambs, and the
fifty pigs and hogs were sold at high
figures, the bidding being lively, the
animals being thoroughbred with fine
pedigrees.
The farm was put up, and a bid of
$50 per acre was accepted, but it could
not be advanced by those present and
the farm was not sold. There are
three hundred and thirty-one acres in
the farm and it is considered one OF
the best places in Cumberland county.

FIFTY FIVE HOUR LAW.
1t Makes q Big Difference to Man
UfactUreFS.

The fifty.fve hour weekly labor law
passed by the late Legislature is meet
ing with general opposition by the
mill owners throughout the State.
The law is very stringent, and forces
the mills to comply under heavy PEN
I alties, fine of $l0O for each violation
being imposed. While the law bene-
fits the workingman in regard to
shorter days labor, it is detriment
in the way of wages. Under the old
law many mills in South Jersey work
sixty-hours, of course the working
men commanding the more pay. In
the course of year, under the new
law the employees of the mills will lose
one months work and pay. The mill
owners will certainly lose the same, as
the machinery will be stopped, but
nevertheless will be complied to pay
the same high rate of taxes.
Deputy Inspector William w. John
son, of Elmer, has been ordered to
strictly enforce the law, and he has al
ready visited several manufacturing
towns with that intention. He visited
the mommoth cotton mills of Wood
Company at Mays Landing recently,
but the result of his visit is not
known. These mills run sixty hours
week.
The law exempts Gamers of fruit
and vegetables and manufacturers Of
glass from its provisions. All other
industries that have competitors in
other States have been badly handi-
capped in the market. The new law
DEGREES that the hours of labor shall
only be ''from seven o'clock IN the
morning until noon, and from one
o'clock until six o'clock in the after
noon, except Saturday." when the
hours of abor shall be from seven
O'Clock in the forenoon until noon"
1t further decrees that no person
under the age of eighteen and no
woman over that age shall be en-
ployed in any workshop excepting
during these hours. This is hard.
ship to those industries that depend
almost altogether on the labor of fe-
male operatives, as a hosiery fac
tory for instance. In that business
orders often come with rush, then
there are periods of dullness. A no.
siery manufacturer secures orders by
his ability to fill them promptly, and
to do so he must make as many hours
as possible, or as his employees are
willing to work. Should he have
contract that would require night
work to fill he would under the law,
be shut out of it, as his female help
could not work after six o'clock.

A MillvilIe Man Killed.

Joseph Smith, of Millville, was struck
and instantly killed short distance
above Clayton by the north bound
Ocean City express, on the West Jer-
sey Railroad, Thursday morning. He
was walking along the south-bound
track in the direction of Glass
boro when the express came along on
the north-bound track at 50-mile-an-
hour gait. The engine whistled for a
road crossing. and this seemed to be-
wilder Smith, who jumped over on
the other track, directly in front of the
engine, and was badly mangled. When
news of the fatility reached the home
of his parents, in Millville, there was
some doubt expressed as to whether it
was their son who had been killed.
Mrs. Smith said their son had left
home on Wednesday afternoon to
work for a farmer in Carmel that he
had been robbed the day before of his
clothes, and probably it was the thief
who was killed by the train. Mr..
Smith left for Glassboro in the after
noon to see if the remains were those
of his son, and he positively identified
the body.

The revolution in business methods
during the lastfe years has brought
golden opportunities to young men and
women If they will but see and accept
them. .Aggregations of capital in large
manufacturing and commercial enter
prises call for an enormous supply of
trained office assistants. By reason of
its reputation for turning out young
men we'll equipped for these dnties
the old reliable Trenton Business Col
lege has not been able in the last three
years to meet the demand made upon
1t for young men and women as book
keepers cashiers, stenographers, etc.,
at good wages. Surly young people
should not complain of opportunity
when a course of six months or one
year at this school, and a small ex-
pense will fit them for and secure
them good business openings.

WHY MOT:
The 18TH N. j. Regiment Should
be Warmly Received.

In the PIONEER of Thursday brief
item called the attention of the gen.
eral public that the 18th N. J. Regi
ment Re-unionAssociation would hold
its 18th annual reunion In this CITY on
September 5th.
That Is one month hence from to-
day. The people of Bridgeton will
remember that some years ago when
the 18th met and organized here, the
the people gave them very warm re-
ception, and a very warm place has
been burning in the hearts of the old
veterans ever since for the patriotic
citizens of Cumberland's county seat.
Since that time the reunions have
been usually held in Woodbury., owing
to the handy situation of that town.
But those who have attended the re-
union there, declare that Woodbury.
took no more interest in the associa-
ton than if they were not in the town,
and the veterans think their reception
there entirely too chilly.
Now during the ensuing four weeks,
why should not some of the live citi-
zens OF this city, take it upon them.
selves to make an effort to enliven the
reunion of this association. A magni-
ficent sum cheerfully subscribed would
hire one of the bands, and there could
be welcoming committee, and the
freedom of the city could be extended
to the veterans. Then let an appeal
be made for everybody to decorate
and have the town covered with red,
white and blue, colors that awaken
the enthusiastic patriotism of every
man that was in the late war. Let the
movement be general, and give the
regiment of which our honored towns
man William E. Potter, was an officer,
welcome that will be ftting, and
credit to the community.

A RABBI'S SUIT.
Rabbi NJ Oses Sues Lazarus Borrow
ski.

A suit more interesting in the hear
ing than in the outcome, was tried
Friday before Justice of the Peace
E. M. Appelgate: the result was no
cause of action.
The defense was so ably conducted
by Lawyer VapSyckel as to bring this
about, although the most strenuous
efforts of young Lawyer Schiller were
employed to secure a verdict for the
plaintiff. The plaintiff was Rabbi
David Moses of Philadelphia, and the
defendent was Lazarus Borovski of
Carmel, the man whose child was lost
in Lebanon Swamp short time ago.
1t seems that some three or four
years ago Mr.. Borovski purchased a
watch and chain from Rabbi Moses,
who was an installment dealer in
Philadelphia
The price to be paid was $126 for the
watch and chain, and $25 was paid
down; subsequent payments aggreg-
ating with the $25 total of SOL.
The Rabbi began to want the bal
ance of the money Borovski said he
hadn't the cash and offered to re-
turn the jewelry for $55. Moses told
him to pawn the watch and give him
the ticket, which was done.
Moses, however, claims that Bor-
ovski gave a note for 1926 for the
watch. Suit was made and judgement
obtained on the note for $126. Bor-
ovski in the mean time leaving Phila-
delphia and taking up his residence in
Carmel.
On this judgement suit was brought
before Squire Appelgate and jury
yesterday, with the result stated. The
costs amounted to $1,000. The plain
tiff Rabbi David, had his brother
Rabbi 8. L. Moses, as witness, and
about the last heard from them last
night was that Constable johnson
was on keen hunt after them for the
$40 90 costs, which they had forgotten
to pay when they left the office.

A Spiders Sting.

David Bateman, of Newport, who
was up here with the "Ezzie" a little
clam boat, was stung under the eye the
other day by a spider. The eye swelled
to such an extent as toturn it inside out
and the man presented a dreadful ap-
pearance. He went TO DR.. Smith who
dressed it, but Friday the man be-
came much worse and out of his head
with,pain. The flies "blowed" him and
he was beside himself.
Friday night John Ryan got horse
and buggy and took him to his home
at Newport Landing, arriving there a
little before midnight.
The mans head and face was swelled
to an enormous size and he was raw
ing crazy most of the time.

HELD FOR COURT.
The Young NIan eon4esses His
Guilt.

On Saturday, Constable Davis, of
Fairton, went up in Deerfield town.
ship, and arrested a young man named
Joseph Brill, for stealing set of har-
ness, valued at $50 from Frank Fisher,
of Fairfield towdship.
The complaint against Brill had
been made by Fisher before Justice of
the Pease B. B. Russell of Fairton, ho
issued the warrant.
Saturday afternoon Brill appeared
before the Justice at the Sheriff Is
office. He said his home was in Ham,
mouton, Atlantic County, and he
owned to stealing the harness. He
was removed to jail to await the action
of the Grand Jury, although Brill says
he would rather appear before a
special session of Court as he wants to
begin serving his sentence as soon as
possible.
