That eternal vigilance in public affairs
is productive of good results has been
forcibly illustrated the past week. by the
publicity just given to transaction which
Occurred at the February meeting of the
Board of Freeholders. The bill of the
Sheriff for board of prisoners is required to
be audited by the committee on Court
House and Grounds before It is presented
to the Board. Just before the February
meeting, q member of the committee
looked over the Sherifvs book, taking
the number of days that should be
charged. Judge his surprise. when, q
few days later, the bill presented for his
signature called for between 5000 and
500 more than he figured the amount.
Inquiry as 10 the cause of the difference
developed the fact that the Sheriff had
made his bill at rs cents per day in face
Of the resolution allowing him only 20
cents per day. The committeeman, Mr.
Gale, very properly refused to audit the
bill. and returned it to the deputy
Sheriff, the Sheriff himself being out Of
town. Before the Board adjourned the
bill was returned in proper shape.
That the error in charging was inten-
tional is apparent from the fact that when
the Sheriff got home and discovered that
the bill had been paid at the legal rate
he was very angry, and poured out his
wrath on Mr.. Gale, who. however, was
perfectly able to take care of himself.
The Sheriff has said that If Gale runs again
he will spend considerable to compass
his defeat, but by the time 1t is necessary
to elect another freeholder here the peo-
pie win have had enough Of the present
incumbent Of the sherif's Office. and
be win have retired to private life with
plenty Of use for his spare thousands.

GOVERNOR McKINLEY's declaration at
the banquet of the Republican Club OF
Canton, o., that "the country needs the
Republican party, for its principles and
purposes and policies underlie every
American interest. and are allied with its
true growth and advancement. expresses
the fundamental mission of Republican
ism. A political organization based upon
such broad platform is not for one day
or for one object. 1t can cease to exist
only when American institutions cease to
exist. 1t finds its duty in whatever tends
to promote the welfare of the American
people. It's glory in the past has been the
steady pursuit of this purpose, whether
the immediate question was the safety of
the Republic, the abolition of slavery,
the preservation of the national credit,
the maintenance of sound currency or
the protection of American industries
and ifs past career is an earnest indica-
ton of its achievements in the future.

he had secured promises from sufficient
number of the members to pass the bill
as presented, but there is a possibility
that there is a mistake in this statement.
Some may have promised to vote for q
resolution to increase the price of board,
as such paper was framed but still lies
in the drawer of the lawyer who wrote IT,
These facts show that the Freeholders
should be on their guard that no illegal
bills be slipped through. 1t does not mat
ter if the members we're pledged to vote
in the affirmatiye,nor would it have made
the act legal had they done so. The only
way to give the Sheriff the extra five
cents is to repeal the resolution now on
the books and adopt new one. This il
not necessary Just at present.

CORONER HIBBERD is determined that
the law shall be observed while he is in
Office, and with that idea in view, has
sent to the physicians and undertakers an
abstract of the law on sudden deaths.
The statute provides that it shall be the
duty of every coroner or justice of the
peace in the absence of coroner, on
being informed of the violent, sudden or
casual death of any person within his
county, Immediately to proceed and view
the body, and make all proper inquiry re-
specting the cause and manner Of the
death, and if from such inquiry the said
coroner or justice shall be satisfied that
no person or persons have been guilty
OF causing or procuring said death, and
that there are no suspicious circumstances
attending the same, he shall, without
further proceedings therein, deliver the
body to the friends thereof, If any there
be, for interment; but in case there are
no friends who will take charge of and
bury it, and If the deceased shall not have
left property sufficient to pay the expen-
ses Of burial, then 1t shall be the duty of
the said coroner or justice to bury the
same"
Thus 1t will be seen that it is impera-
tive upon the coroner to investigate all
sudden deaths, even though there be no
suspicious circumstances. While this NAV
seem to be unnecessary in many instances,
the wisdom of the law is often demon
strated by the fact that little investiga-
ton shows condition Of affairs that
needs oyerhauline.

Ar the last session of the Legislature a
bill was passed land has become law
by which rubble, Stag and gravel roads
may be put down where it is desired to
have good roads without the expense Of
Telford or Macadam. This does not suit
the stone road men. however, as one Of
them said last week, "that the people in
his township would not thank the coun-
ty flor any such roads" Why not !? No
body will dispute that either of the last
named will be great improvement over
the present system. and that Is what we
are after. Are not our friends going q
little too far when they insist that the
county shall build the most expensive
roads that can be selected? They argue
that rubble is not smooth. There is a
rubble road in Camden that is as smooth
as Belgian blocks. They also say the law
requires smooth surface. This is not SO.
The law says "Telford, Macadam, or some
other equally durable substance"
Then they argue that the petitions call
for the specific form of road. If we re-
member right, the petitions ask for Tel
ford, Macadam or other stone road. So
that, if we may judge from appearances
at the last meeting, there is disposition
to give stone roads, and the petitioners
should be willing to make some conces-
sion in the interest of low taxes.

At the conclusion of the examination the

not necessary. He said Prof. A.. d.

conclusion that M. YaeRer was insane. The
