The tariff, as finally passed while in
many respects it falls short of the eX'
pectations of the country, is an enor-
nous step forward in the direction of
reduced taxation, a step that will never
be retraced. From this time the fixed
policy of the country will be toward the
gradual reduction ofimport duties, and
our manufacturers, who will prosper
under this new tariff as they havenever
~prospered before, will not again seek
the restoration of the eXCrbitant taxes
which have demoralized so many of our
industries Times.
The Penn's Grove record., 1894-08-17

The revival of trade and business be-
came manifested as G as it became
known that the tariff bill had passed.
Stocks in all lines of manufactures have
been reduced to a minimum, especially
in iron, steel aid glass. In some lines
of business orders were placed at once.
With the revival of trade people will
soon become satisfied with the new tar
if law and will dread more agitation
on the subject. All a feel assured
that there will be no sweeping change
in the law until CleYeland's admins
tration comes to an end at least.

The State Reform School.

The trustees of the Jamesburg Re.
form School have just issued their re-
ports for the past fiscal year. 1t shows
that there were 1913 confined during the
year. Some of the better boys are
bound out to the farmers and some thir-
ty.eight were permitted to return to
their parents for further discipline, oW-
ing to the fact that the school was un-
able to accommodate them. But all
these lads are likely to be returned to
the reform school for the slightest dis
obedience, they being practically now
on parole.
Of the lis boys sent to the reform
school last year, 100 were white and Is
colored.
There was not a single death at the
institution during the fiscal year just
closed. There were 722 pairs of shoes
made at the reform school during the
year, and 1908 pairs Of shoes were re.
paired. There were also made 3,53l
gross OF brushes and lao, 900 bricks dur.
ing the year.
Receipts of the institution for the
year, according to the report of Treas
urer Moses Bigelow, of Essex county,
amounted to 71,445. %, and the ex-
penditures were sGG, j83. 81, leaving q
balance this year of S4,591.95 as
against a balance last year of S., 00419.
OF this sum SG3, 937. 80 was spent for
maintenance, $9lG.02 for light, and
5000. 0G for manual training. The pro.
fits of the farm for the fiscal year Just
closed we're S1,050.O9. The personal

ment. Joseph II. Shinn, who was the

commenting upon the letter, said, THE
Junior Order of American Mechanics,
is absolutely o sectarian and non.
partisan on the school question. We
are just as much opposed to Protestant
interference with our school system as
we are to Catholic interference. We
believe that the sectarian religionists
who carry ~sectarian ideas into our pull

can citizens. We will resent Protestant
interference with our nOn-seetarian
public schools just as quickly as we will
resent Catholic interference" The

Rev. John PettingiIi, Pastor Free

For wears | was troubled with most alarm
ing ana painful symptoms Of dyspepsis, in
digestion, heartburn, headache, and sleep
lessness. During these many years of i'll
ness consulted the best Of authorities on
the diseases of the digestive organs, spec
islists of great renown pronouncing my
case hopeless. some asserting that my
stomach was infested with cancers. l have
tried countless numbers of so called med
icines that were recommended to me or
otherwise brought 10 my notice. Like
a drowning man catching at straw
| would buy bottles after bottles
of Sarsaparilla ard other medicines l saw
advertised in the papers, giving them all
a thorough trial. All of these, although
highly spoken of by persons whose integ-
rity l could not doubt, proved worse than
useless in my case, and j Kept growing
steadily worse. | became at last convinced
that the numerous physicians | had con-
suited were right, and that my disease was
indeed iucurable. Giving up all hopes,
the only course left for me was to reduce
the pain to a minimum. This was OBJ
taiaed by eating as little as would keep
body and soul together, and abstalning
from all substances containing fats, sugar
ana stsTCu. OOlue lilUutus sluCc u hiht
friend gave me bottle of Red Seal Sar-
saparila. At first would not take it as
hal lost faith in everything, believing
that God alone couli bring relief. Bein
told, however. that this Sarsaparilla was
prepared in peculiar manner of its own
whereby certain Injurious principles con-
tanned in most all such preparations were
effectualy eliminated, | at last, but still
without much hope, gave it trial. l
| fervently thank God that in his goodness
he has allowed me to find this precious
medicine Finding relief with the first
bottle obtained more, and kept taking it
unit, today l am completely cured and as
well a man as ever drew the breath of life.
am convinced of the superiority of the
Red Seal Sarsaparilla over all others | have
tried, and consider it my solemn duty to
tell what have told in the foregoing, so
that others like myself suffering from dys-
pepsia or kindred diseases of the digestive
organs may be cured by this wonderful
medicine.
This statement is made of my own free
will and without any solicitation from the
company owning and manufacturing this
Sarsaparilla. REV. JoHs PETTINGILL.
