WHY Racing Can Go On.

The belief of those who uphold the
the Democratic Senators in refusing to
swear in Senators Rogers, Ward and
Bradley is about this. New Jersey is
a democratic state and the offices be-
long to us. Several democrats in a bit
of hypocritical virtue voted the Repub-
licans into control of the Legislature
last fall solely to repeal the race track
laws. AS the Supreme Court has de-
clared unconstitutional the law under
which the tracks were licensed, there
fore, there is no cause now for aRepub-
lican legislature and they :are justified
in not letting the Republicans have the
power the people delegated to them.
There were three race track laws
passed last winter. The first one re-
Quired all tracks to get a license to
make racing and bookmaking legal.
Old tracks could be licensed Oh a ma
jority but a new track required a three
fourths vote. The second law declar-
ed that pool selling and bookmaking
would not constitute a nuisance or dis
orderly house and vas not an indictable
of1ense "wlthin the grounds OF any ag-
ricultural society or other incorporat-
ed" The third law says that betting
or bookmaking habitually carried on
shall not be Unable more than $40.
The Court has declared only the first
law unconstitutional because it gave
the licensing bodies power they never
possessed before and because it dis.
eliminated between old and new tracks.
The other two laws stand.
In another column is a clipping stat
ing that racing will begin at Glouces'
ter on March, list. Thompson may be
arrested and then his prosecutor, who
should be the peoples, will declare the
betting not an indictable %offense, ac'
cording to the second law, in case the
grand jury wants to indict. Should
the case he appealed to the Supreme
court again it will be nine months or a
year before it will decide it uncOnstitu-
tiohal on the ground that the betting
is equivalent to a lottery. This point
wal not touched on in the decision Civ.
en- which has thrown DEVILS dust in the
peoples eyes.
Granted that the second law is null
and void racing can go on under the
third law which says that no more than
$50 fine shall he imposed for "habitual-
ly" carrying en- betting or boosmaking.
This law cannot be declared uncoDsti-
tutional and racing can be carried on
until it is wiped off the statute books
by an ~antigambling legislature. For
at every term of court, three times a
year, the race track men can afford 10
appear. in court, plead guilty, pay S206ne
and return to racing.
This is why the present legislature
should repeal the laws. If the Cover
nor refuses to let the repealers become
laws and all the Democrats in office use
their influence to stop it, they are only
defending the gamblers. The Cover
nor, Supreme Court on down to the
constable are thus getting firmer into
the gamblers grip.

Rev. Dewitt Talmage announced on
Sunday that lie will resign the pastor
ate of the Tabernacle Church In Brook
Ign, in the spring. He is now about
60 years old and has been pastor there
for twenty-five years. The Tabernacle
is one of the largest clairclles in the
country and is burdened with a debt Of
$400, 600. He received Si2, 900 a year
as pastor and the running expenses of
the church, including pastors salaries
is about $40, 900 q year. The assistant
pastor receives 5000. The trustees
see no way to meet their obligations ex-
cept by charging visitors ten Cents for
a seat. As there are about 100 wish
tors each Sunday that would relieve
them of their burden. Talmage says
he IL no ten.cent man and does not ap.
prove of it. There is one church, a
Baptist in Philadelphia, which has
adopted the admission ticket plan to re.
lieve it of debt. 1t is hoped that the
people will not be deprived of reading
his interesting sermons.

The income tax bill has been reported
to House of Representatives and made
o rider to the tariff bill. The bill states
that every person or corporation, doing
business in the United States having an
income of more than $500 must make
return to the Internal Revenue Collec-
tor of their income gains and profits. A
man who has an annual income of
$4,000 pays no tax. A man with an an
nual income Of 4100 pays a 2 per cent.
tax on 500, which is tue excess above
$4,000. A member of Congress, for ex-
ample, is taxed 2 per cent. on $1,000,
the other $4,000 Of his income being ex-
empt by the law. 1t is we'll that the
public slsald understand this, for the
N--.-ession seems to be general that
where ones income exceeds $4,000 one
Is taxed on the full amount. The bill
imposes a tax of two cents a pack on
playing cards and increased the tax on
distilled spirits from ninety cents to 81
per gallon and extends the bonded time
to eight years.

Gloucester Track 10 Open.

The Gloucester race-track will open
on the 1st Of March. "We have been
living on hope for nearly two months"
said a bookmaker land If this good
news about Gloucester is true w will
manage to hold out until the Ides of
March. Tom Flynn says it's straight,
and he ought to know, for lie stands
close to Billy Thompson and is a men,
Der of the Legislature. What he don't
know about Jersey politics amt worth
much. Tom got a hundred "plunks"
day rs starter at the track, and you can
gamble that lie wants the game opened
again."
Several hundred head of horses are
still at Gloucester, and their owners
have been told rot to send them away,
az racing would soon be resumed. The
track itself and the buildings are being
put In condition for a resumption of
business. 1t is well known that the
plan to prevent the Republicans from
organizing the State Senate, and there
by to block repeal of the race-track
laws, was conceived by the race-track
owners. 1t was engineered by Billy
Thompson. owner of the Gloucester
Race Track; Bob Adrain, President of
the Democratic Senate, aud Allan L,
McDermott, Chairman Of the Demo.
cratic State Executive Committee and
counsel for the Guttenburg track.
Billy Thompson has had the legal
difficulties Ia the way of opening his
race-track sifted by some of the ablest
lawyers in the State, and Oh the
strength Of their opinions the tip has
gone forth that gambling will go on
at Gloucester after March l."

The u. S. Senate having refused to
confirm Mr.. Hornblower for the U. s.
Supreme court because Senator Hill
brought charges of incompetency but
principally because the New York Sem
ators were not consulted in regards to
the appointment. President Cleveland
has appointed Wheeler II. fPeckham,
another a%nti-snapper. who is more Of
fensive to Hill and his followers than
Hornbiower was because lie spoke
against Hills election as Governor in

FIJI FIRST PLATE GLASS MACHINE

Pussy & Jones, of Wilmington, have
Just finished a machine to make plate
glass for the Bonita Plate Glass Co., of
Scranton, Pa. 1t is the first machine
ever made with which to make plate
glass which has always heretofore been
made by hand. The machine weighs
rs tons, took a year to make it and cost
$50 900. The new idea is to manufac.
ture a sheet OF glass 10 by 16 feet, from
l to /! inches thick and rolled on both
sides. 1t gave perfect satisfaction on
the trial test.
This shows that Americans are skill
ed workmen and ahead of other count
ries in inventive genius and able to
compete in manufacturing the most in
tricate articles of machinery.

lOnged this week and it is expected the
bill will pass the House next Thursday
Feb. list. The most notable change
made in the Wilson bill this week vas
the complete adjustment of the boun.
ty to sugar growers and the abolish
ment of all tariff on sugar. This was
done to kill the sugar refining trust
which has been paying large dividends
on about fifty millions of watered stock.
The refusal to pnt a tariff on sugar
will make an income tax necessary.

American Railroad Puzzles.

1t Is impossible to get clear and ae- eurate idea of the financial administra- tion of American railroad lines Many of the great companies present the ap- pearance of real chaos, of a labyrinth In which it is almost impossible to find ones way. This is due to various causes, not to refer to the desire which the managers of n company may have to keep out the light. Many compa- nies do not confine themselves to trans portation; they possess mines, they make a commission in merchandise. they construct and operate elevators. they operate canals, they are preprie- tors or lessees of distant lines; mere over, portion of the freight has been conceded to special companies, who pay toll, who lend rolling stock to the con- pany, and this company is stockholder Tn these subdiary enterprises Add to this that the stations are the common property of several railway companies. or belong to particular company. Un- der these conditions it is easy to see how complicated the accounts must be. The consequence Is that the capital inc vested changes necessarily, and that it includes n thousand diverse things. Most of the companies declare them selves unable to state even approxi. mately the sum of their real expenses. -Economiste FrRncais.
