WOOL GROWERS IN CONVENTION.
Officers Elected and Resolutions
Adopted.

Officers Elected and Resolutions
Adopted.
At meeting of Wool Growers of
Nevada, Eastern Oregon and Idaho,
held at the Courthouse in Reno on 22d,
Thomas Nelson of Humboldt was re-
elected President, j. B. Mccullough
of Washoe Vice President, George +.
Turrittin of Washoe, Secretary, and
J. G.. Taylor of Humboldt, Treasurer.
Chas. Kaiser and w. w. Williams of
Churchill were elected representatives
to the meeting of wool growers, wool
dealers, cotton planters and farmers to
be held at Chicago on the 28th and
goth insts., also to the National Wool
Growers Association to be held at the
same place on October 9th.
Owing to the present depressed state
of the business and the future outlook
it was decided to reduce wages from
the present standard to $50 per month
for herders and establish rate of B
cents per head for shearing
The following resolutions were
adopted.
Whereas, The Wool Growers of the
United States can, and, with full and
adequate protection for the wool in
dustry, will soon produce all the wool
and mutton needed for consumption
in the United States, and,
Whereas, To remove, or seriously
reduce, the present tariff on wool and
wooden goods, would result in the to-
tai destruction of the sheep industry
of the United States, bringing imme-
date ruin to thousands, and afterwards
raising the price of wooden goods and
meat, and thus reacting directly against
the poorer classes in whose interest
such legislation is proposed to be en-
acted, and,
Whereas, Inasmuch as the recent
panic and continued monetary string
ency commenced with the export of
gold, our necessary remedy is to SO
legislate that we shall cease importing
wool, which comes chiefly from coun-
tries that take substantially nothing
from us in turn but gold, and,
Whereas, Under proper protection
the United States would soon have
100, 100000 sheep which, with the
lands and improvements required for
them, would add $500, 900, 900 to our
taxable wealth, and give millions to
the employment of labor, and bring
an annual income in wool and mutton
of 5000, 900, 900 and make vastly
increased demand for pasturage and
hay, all of which will be substantially
destroyed by free wool, therefore
Resolved, That copy of these re-
solutions be sent to each Senator and
member of Congress representing the
State of Nevada, Oregon and Idaho,
and that they be urged to use every
honorable means to prevent any change
in the present law as regards wool and
WOODEN goods.

ParaIyzed Eastern Republicans.

The following extract we take from
Judge Goodwin's letter from Wash
ington to the Salt Lake Tribune:
Representatives Sweet of Idaho and
Hartman from Montana paralyzed
Eeastern Republicans by voting to get
quorum to bring up the Election
bill. Their reasons briefly were: ssYou
of the East Republicans and Democrats
alike, seem to have conspired to des-
troy the West You have voted to kill
silver. You are impatiently waiting
to strike the tariff from lead, copper
and wool. Your President refuses to
execute the plain command of law
which was intended to prevent the in
undation of our country by flood of
Chinese; you refuse to survey our
public lands; and you will neither do
anything with the arid lands nor per-
NIT us to. What obligations are we
under to do anything to oblige you?
and why should we not Parnell Con-
gress if we can!
The stand is already having its eff
feet. If silver compromise measure
should be agreed upon in the Senate
and sent over to the House [ predict
it would pass without any extended
debate.
But it is hard game. Three days
ago heard New York banker, an
ex-treasury official, swearing at the
farmers, and saying in effect that they
were not matter of serious import
ance. Last night heard a United
States Senator say the farmers were
doing we'll enough and would be max.
ing money enough if they were not so
extravaganza, and Senator Gray on
Wednesday made an argument in the
Senate that it would be a hardship on
the people of the Atlantic seabord to
have the price of products advanced.
1t would make work for the thousands
who are idle and double the purchases
from the East by the men of the West,
of course he kept out of sight"

WHAT m COSTS.

Governor Werts' staff is as follows:
Leon Albeit, Jr., OF HobokeD; Senator
Michael 7. Barrett, of Newark; Asa
Dickinson, of H~ackensack; Joseph d.
Bedle. Jersey City; Anthony R. Kuser,
Trenton; E. r. Meany, OF Morristown;
Robert Adrain, New Brunswick, and
George Pieffer, Camden.
With the exception Of Colorels
Adrain, Kuser and Barrett these men
will have to go 10 a flrst-class military
out6ter and expend about $500 for a
pretty uniform and sword. This is the
first expense; those that follow are too
numerous to mention. The heaviest
item is that Of camp week, when every
Colonel is expected to keep a tent full
Of good things, to be given away in the
name Of the State.N The Governors
ball also comes high, and apart from
the expense Of cards, decorations and
music, every Colonel has a ine lunch
con for his particular friends. where
the best or earth is handed out to those
who are entitled to the hospitality. AS
a rule, 1t costs about $500 a year to be
on the Governors staff. There is no
en- l-Of entertainments and amusements
and pretty compliments, but it comes a
trifie high.

A aoop BUILDING i LOAN
ASSOCIATION.

The State Mutual Building s. Loan
Association of New Jersey in issuing
its 9th, monthly statement (December)
shows that in less than a year 1t has
established AZ local branches, through
out South Sersey, containing 1888
shares of stock. and has received and
promptly loaned out over $27, 500 in "a
loans, MI on first mortgages: the demand
for money being greater than the sup
ply, the Secretary informs us.
Salem County already has five pros
porous branches established-Salem,
Woodstown. Elmer, Penn's Grove and
Alloway. Each County is represented
in the General Board of Directors,
from Salem being Senator Butcher and
Mr.. Robert Gwynne Jr. Prominent
among the other directors are Hon.
Edward Burrough, President. State
Board of Agriculture; Cashier A. S.
Emmel, Glassboro; Congressman II. G.
Lo~udenslager; County Clerk L. L.
Rice, Of Cape May q. II. and Judge E.
A.. Armstrong, their President.
The State Mutual is simply an ordi
nary Building Association but Is man
aged in a most energetic ANN by a
strong Board of Directors, composed of
20 well known gentlemen, mostly bank.
ing men, as well as practical Building
Association members.
A new series OF siock is issued each
month, and your money can be with,
drawn ON demand along with q per
cent annual interest, which makes 1t
an excellent saving bank for all mem.
beers. The shares will mature in about
8 years because Of the large amount Of
premium paid by the borrowers, all OF
whom payNthe same amount. BY hav-
ing 50 many different branches tue
supply and demand is well regulated,
and the general business greatly adj
vanced. 1t Is the intention of the As
sociation to establish a branch in each
village and town of our County and
throughout South Jersey.

BY the death of Ex.P President Hayes
who was laid to rest at Fremont, Ohio,
on the Goth, one of.the best men who
ever sat in the White House passed
away. While many believed he was
never honestly elected yet their was no
question of the legality Of his title after
the Democratic leaders agreed to the
Electoral Commission of 8 to z. MI.
Hayes said let Mr.. Tilden have the
place by violence, intimidation and
fraud rather than undertake to prevent
it by means that will not bear the sew
crest scrutiny His administration
was a great contrast TO General Grants
before him in that 1t was free from
scandal and restored peace and home
rule in the South and a better frater.
nal feeling between the two sections.
Ex-senator Wade Hampton pays this
tribute to him. "Knowing what he
did for our people and knowing how
much lie did for us, l feel that l am
only discharging a debt of gratitude
when I pay my homage to the dead
President. 1 regard him as my friend
because he had been the friend of my
people; and whatever may be said Of
him, his administration was clean, hon
est and without one slur upon his men,
ory. While he was not a great man,
he was a conscientious, true and honest
one, one to whom we of the South owe
more than we can yer repay"
The Penn's Grove record., 1893-01-27

The State Treasurer's report shows
three estates, which have contributed to
the enu OF the state, since the law
went into effect in March last. The
tax is only imposed on property passed
by will or by the interstate laws to per-
sons, other than the father, mother,
husband, wife, children, brother or sis
ter, or lineal descendants born In law
full wedlock, or the wife or widow of
the son or tha husband Of the daughter.
The total amount SO lar received by
the state from this source. was $21. sos.
80, all Of which, except $751; ~, was re-
ceIved by from the estate Of Henry
Richmond, Of Middlesex county. 1t is
thought that the future annual income
to the state from this source will
amount to several hundred thousand
dollars. A similar law in New York
netted the state last year over $7O0, 900.

The first position Gov. Werts has to
fill in Salem county by appointment is
q Lay Judge to succeed William Plum
mer whose term has expired. While
MI. Plummer has filled the position
with ability for more than two terms
of 8 years each, yet there is a large
number of persons in the County, toe
modest to give public expression to the,7
views, who believe in rotation in Off
ces and who would like to see q change
in the personal of the Lay Judges. 1t
is said that ex-senator William Newell,
would not object to the position and he
has several friends who would like to
see him secure the position, as they
think him deserving of it. He it was
who first wrested Salem county from
the Republicans, after they had carried
it for 2S years and has made many sacri-
feds with but small repay from his par
ty. Mr.. Plummer could not well feel
offended at Mr.. Newell Tor being d can
didate for the Judgeship, as it was only
through Mr.. Newell's recommends
tion five years ago when Senator that
Mr.. Plummer got reappointed. 1t is
customary to reward with such posi-
tions men who have served their party
and as Gov. Werts in his inaugural sug-
gested a new order of things there
would be as many if not more pleased,
as not pleased by him appointing his
old associate in the Senate, William
Newell, to the Lay Judgeship in Salem
county.
The Penn's Grove record., 1893-01-27

The people of the State are looking
~intently for the introduction of a bill to
legalize pool selling at rae tracks in
order to save some from State prison
who should now be in there. 1t is said
such a bill will be rushed through In
der a suspension of the rules so that
the representatives of the best class Of
citizens can not have time to oppose it.
To suspend the rules will require at
least a two-thirds vote and any legisla-
tor who votes for a suspension coun-
tenances the legalizing of gambling.
Judge tanning, of Trenton, in his ad-
dress last year before the committee to
which the gamblers bill was referred
said he knew that pool selling is a lot
terry and that where maintained a dis.
orderly house conld be indicted without
statute and at common law, because Of
their injury to the public morals? The
State constitution says No. lottery
shall be authorized by this State"
Each Legislator is sworn to uphold the
constitution. The legislator who votes
to legalize poll selling commits perjury
by doing what he swears he will not do.
Perjury is a crime punishable in this
State by Z years imprisonment and $500
fine. Therefore, the Legislator who
votes to legalize pool selling, according
to law belongs, in prison with the pool
seller, and the Legislator who votes to
suspend the rules to let such a bill pass
is an alder and abettor of breaking the
constitution, which he is sworn to up
hold, and to legalizing crime. How
much influence ~ will it take to make
forty.two Legislators, who are sworn
to uphold the constitution, to commit
perjury?
Section 2, article l, says Govern
ment is instituted for the protection,
security and benefit of the people, and
they have the right at all times to alter
or reform the same, mhenerer The public
good may require IT," Does the public
good require the legalizing of gambling?
1t certainly does require its suppression.

The Man who needs
Bank Book.

You've heard of farmers selling their crops as
they stood. No harvesting to pay. No barn-work
to consider. You'd take a less price for the certain,
quick, easy sale, and the cash in hand, wouldn't YOU?
That's what many a mill does with us. We buy
the cloth on the spot. They cut the prices to us; we
snap up the advantage, and share with you.
A man who buys Overcoat and Suit from us for
this long winters service turns many a dollar back
into his pocket.
He'd better get a bank book and keep count OF
his savings-and keep on buying at Oak Hall.
Twelve Dollar Overcoat for tcn-thats nothing.
Any and every timc-we're that much under regular
price.
You'll find it a Five Dollar saving on a Twenty
Dollar one.
And yet, we pay for better trimmings, better
work, more style in our suits, in our Overcoats.
We make the best r~eady-made Clothing there is
and still sell it for the lowest prices.
We are manufacturers-that the whole secret.
Most stores buy the clothes they sell. We don't.
