The amendment to the marriage Ii
cense law so as to apply only TO non
residents who come to New Jersey to
avoid the expense as well as the incon-
venience and enhancement of an ex-
animation before a county clerk fills
all the requirements to stop the Cam
den scandals and should become a law.
We do not approve making every one
in the state 60 to the expense and in
convenience of getting d license from
the county clerk.
Our opinion is that a much better
Law would be to require all ministers
and officials who perform marriages to
take out a license aud have them regis
tered in the clerks Office of each coun-
ty, the same as the oath Of a commits
sioner Of deeds, notary public and JUS
tice OF the peace. The law should re-
quire the minister or official li~censedwho
perform marriages 10 ask a tabulated
lis. Of questions in accordance with the
laws relating to marriage in the state
aid tie minister should be required also
to sss ali the questions in accordance
with tie discipline of his Church relat-
ing to marriage. The minister should
keep a full record Of the questions and
a copy Of them should be sent to the
county clerk to be recorded. This
would makea record Of information
which would be very valuable in many
cases in settling estates.

Tom Lane, who has Il position in

NIT Record that During the past two
Oh three weeks something of a move
ment has developed in the New Jersey
Congressional delegation, in favor of
the nomination of Theodore Runyon,
Minister Of Berlin, at G~ubernatorial
Candidate next year On the Democratic
ticket in New Jersey. They believe the
public respect and confidence lie enjoys
and his high standard as a lawyer, as
well as his freedom from the fractional
and legislative entanglements of the
past five years, would insure his cleo
ton by an old.time majority. 1t is
probable that the RuDy0n "boom' will
become IL definite quantity at no distant
day if the predictions Of the shrewdest
political observers in the delegation,
count for anything" Mr.. Runyon is
one of the ablest men of high moral
standing in the Democratic party in
New Jersey and would make an idea

with the remainder of the Court in the
opinion that the inquiry was a judicial

Where is the difference in principle
between Coxey and his army of tramps
and cranks going to Washington to ask
for legislation to benefit them and the
big manufacturers, the monopolies and
trusts asking for legislation to make
them richer. People have too much
the idea that it is the duty of the gov
eminent to support the people when in
fact it is the duty of the people to sup
port the government. Coxey and his
band have been declared a nuisance.
He got on the grass. The representa-
tiyes of the %monopolies and trusts are
undoubtedly as great a nuisance to pop
ular interest in using their vast money
influence in influencing Senators to fav-
or their interests which must finally be
paid by the people.

TIE sentence of Gen." Coxey and
Carl Browne to twenty days imprison-
ment and s. fine is out of all proportion
to the petty offenses for which they
were convicted; but as they are the au-
thors and representatives of Coxeyism
and are doing their best to encourage it
throughout the country, the Washing
ton Police Justice did well in imposing
a sentence that would act as u deter
rent. The French had a saying that
