Reducing Criminal Costs.

While the farmers of the legisla5 lure
are bending all their mental and ply
steal energies toward the formation of
a road law that will compel the con-
struction and maintenance of good
roads, the lawyers will undoubtedly
devote much of their time to SO amend
ing the practice act as to reduce the
present enormous costs annually piled
up against the state. just how this
reduction may be best effected, without
prejudice or injustice, is legal ques-
ton which The Tribune is not lawyer
enough to solve. 1t only knows by
common repute that in large number
of counties unnecessary costs are tax
ed, and that the expenditure in this di-
rection is growing more and more bur-
densome to the people. Let the law
yers put their heads together and
ascertain where the trouble lies. The
responsibility rests with them, as men
toned in the law, to at once seize upon
this weighty subject and solve the
problem of reducing the costs in Grim
inal cases.

For unworthier dodgers room in the

To be pitied is he whose mind never

Though it cause some regret in half

And so, Arcadia, many kinds thoughts

Not to the knee of chastisement do L

On the footstool of peace, please your
blessings confer:
There gently stroke my tired, aching

While dream of the past as it comes

And crowed in your arms with babyish

Then along the rich bottoms I'd quietly

Let us blow our green breath DER the

tWe'd chase neighboring apple tree

Oh! much to laugh at in that good ole

When the buzzard drove the lean dog

Every Sunday to church I'd go,
Sing with the deacons soft and low;
With big. round eyes l viewed thu

MIR. BIaine's biography.

The Biography of James G. Blaine

a copy of the same should be careful TO
select a reliable work. As is always
the case with biographies of great men,
many unreliable productions have been
placed upon the market and represent
ed as the only reliable work published.
The only person who has the material
and necessary papers at hand for pre-
pairing a thorough, reliable and salts
factory biography of the eminent states.
man is Gail Hamilton, Mr.. Blaine's
literary executor. This biography is
published by the Henry Bill Publishing
Company, of Norwich, Conn. The ad-

The Naval Review

which took place in New York Thurs
day of this week was a notable event.
Nothing TO compare with it las ever
occurred in American waters. Tie
ships participating represented England
the Netherlands, Germany, Argentine
Republic, Russia, Spain, Brazil, Uru-
quay, France, Italy, Chill, Japan and
Portugal. The United States had Is
cruisers and gunboats present. The
aggregate number OF guns mounted was
about $40. The ships formed in the
lower bay in a double line, American
ships in II line, foreign ships in the
other, making a double line nearly
three miles long. They steamed up the
Narrows, firing salutes TO the forts,
which were returned, and firing another
salute at the Battery. Then they steam
ed up the North (Hudson) River and
anchored. The President then embark
ed on the Dolphin and amid thunder
ing salutes steamed up between the two
lines. AT the close of the review, all
the guns were fired simultaneously, and
the great event was over.

An Open Question.

The most live and important question
before the County to day is the grant
irg Of a race-track license to the Woods.
town Fair Association. The Fair Asso.
Citations are put in the predicament
Of closing of their fair, having it with.
out racing or getting a license which
permits gambling. Some don't think
those who wish a license want it for
improper purposes; that no harm will
result from a friendly trial of speed be.
tween two farmers colts. People do
not go there to gamble nor bet and that
racing is a necessary adjunct to the ag-
ri%cultural fair. A license is wanted to
show respect for The law which has put
the association into such p%redicament.
Money is invested in the association
and no profit a be procured if there
be 10 racing. Those are the arguments
advanced in favor of a license and the
money question is the weightiest.
On the other hand, if the license is
not wanted for improper purposes what
assurance do those who want the license
give that no gambling and betting will
be allowed. There is big money in al.
lowing the gambling and fakirs of ques-
tionable games which have been more
or less criticised in the past, and if the
money consideration is the most weigh.
ty will the temptation to allow gamb-
ling by the Association he resisted?
There may be no harm in a friendly
race between farmers colts, then again
there may be. But are the races be-
tween farmers colts: The county road
horse race last year al the Fair Was
more interesting than all The other
races but there has been only one. such
race in IA hall dozen years. The races
have been 10 the greatest extent be-
tween a lot OF ringers who attend all
the Fairs and in many cases the race is
made up as to which shall win for gam
bling purposes. If an an%ti-ringer comes
in and wins the gamblers are ready TO
get that horse out of the way as is
shown by the poisoning of a valuable
Salem county horse. The increased in
terest in iace horses in this County has
done much to raise the pedigree of
horses but it has lowered the pedigree
Of more than one farmers sou. A boy
has as much right to a noble pedigree
as a colt, but one is a detriment to
the other.
1t is a noticeable f.ct that the agri-
cultural fairs are degenerating more
each year into agricultural tIcts and it
is the sporting element that spend the
money. For that reason a license is
wanted to get that money. That's the
kernel in the nut.
The money is invested and a return
is dearly ,canttd, but no n can truth
fully say it is absolutely needed by those
who have their money invested in the
Woodstown Fair. If man buys a
farm, a store, or printing office and the
business is Improbable who would ever
think of asking for a license to run a
lottery or gambling den TO keep such a
person from poverty? You would tell
him 10 go at something else. II n

Total increase,

1ON8E hNSAN'"NN
The lowest percentage of increase is
that between 1860 and 1870, the only
decade in which the aggregate increase
also fell below the next preceding one.
This falling off was probably caused by
the civil war of 1861 1866 But Super
Intendent Porter expresses the opinion
that the census of 1870 was incomplete
and defective in the Southern States,
and failed to show their total popula.
tion, aud therefore the f ling off may
have been more apparent than real.
But the destructive war Of the rebellion,
besides accelerating the death rate,
must also have had II Expressive effect
both in respect of births as well AS i'm
migration.
One pleasing development Of this cen.
sus is the fact that the school enroll
ment has increa ed more rapidly than
our population. The enrolment of all
scliOols-public, private and parochial
in 1910 was 2 OPS $50, but little mort
than one eighth of The population,
which was II, O69, 453, while in 1860 it
had risen to 5,477, 037, out of a total
population Of 3l,433,321, more than
one sixth. In 1890 the school enroll.
ment of the country was 1~4,373,670,
nearly O%nc-fourth of the total popula-
ton of 81, 1922, $50 In the public schools
alone the enrolment in 1890 had reach
ed Il, 705, 1856, more than one-ifth of
the total population. OF this total
1,346, SCI were colored. This great
army of scholars required the services
of 1862, COS teachers.
