A NOVEL LAW POINT RAISED.

The trial of Excise Commissioners
Norton Westcott and Jacob Richman,
charged with receiving money from sa'
loonkeepers for their licenses, was call
ed In Cumberland County Court on
Tuesday, but came to an abrupt con-
clusion. Lawyer John S. Mitchell
moved to quash the indictment on the
ground that, the Supreme Court having
decided the Excise Commission law un-
constitutional, the men were not lawful
officers, and that, therefore, the indict.
ments against them as such would not
hold. Judge Reed refused the motion,
but granted a writ of certiorari 10 take
the case Immediately to the Supreme
Court.

the primal les and the polls. who attends
every meeting of his party organizations

fective independent organizations il he
is not a party man; the man who wins
in actual hard fighting and who is not

Assemblyman Diver brought home
one of B~radley's scrubbing brushes
with which 1t is said he briDed enough
of Monmouth county's citizens to elect
him Senator. 1t is an ordinary six-cent
scrubbing brush, which cost Mr.. Brad
ley, the manufacturer, probably about
three cents. On n end Of the back is
tackled a red, white and blue ribbon and
pasted below Is a circular on which is
printed ''Brush up, brush up citizens Of
old Monmouth, a vote for james A.
Bradley for Senator is a vote to repeal
the gambling laws passed last winter"
If Bradley bought his election, as it is
alleged, by distributing these brushes
free over Monmouth county, votes are
bought very cheap up there and the
race track men must be very poor. II
the line of electioneering is to be drawn
to such a fine point every legislator
should resign for we doubt whether
every one has not given something Of
value to voters, at least treated to CT
gars.

II8 LEGISLATURE.

Monday night but the SITUATION reulain-
cd unchanged. Nothing was done In
either Senate but meet and adjourn.
Two Democrat Senators wereaway and
two Republican Senators we're sick.
The House got down to business for
the first time. There we're fifteen par
tisan bills introduced last week, en-
grossedand ready to be reported. The
first taken up was the bill repeating the
act permitting bookmaking on inclosed
grounds. 1t was pushed 10 a flnal pas
sage under a suspension of the rules.
When the roll call began W. ]. Thomp'
son and ex-Speaker Flynn suddenly lis
appeared from their seats and did not
vote. The result was the passage of
the repeater by a vote of 40 to 4. Other
bills passed are as follows:-
Repeating the act creating the Elec.
trical Sub. way Commission, abolishing
the Office of County Superintendent OF
Public Works in Essex and Hudson
Counties; repeating the act giving to
the secretary of the Board of Prison In
spectors a salary of $500; abolishing the
office OF State policeman. held by John
P. Feeney; repeating the county license
act; representing the act making book
making a misdemeanor only;. repeating
the act permitting boards of freehold
ers in second class counties to gil va
cancies in the membership; takes from
the Governor the power to pay bills for
which there is no special appropriation;
abolishing the office of Commissioner
of Mines; a%belishing the office of Super
intendent of the State Capitol occupied
by Bernard Ford.
The Senators have done nothing but
consult, meet and adjourn. On We'd
nesdsy the Republican Senate passed
three bills, to repeal tho act making
bookmaking no ~offense; giving Secre-
tary of State Prison Inspectors $500
salary per year; and repeats County Lii
eense Commissioners act.
The project to get the Supreme Court
decide which Senate is legal on a quo
warranto proceedings has been aban-
doned by the Attorney General and
Governor because the Republicans re-
fuse to enter into a friendly suit. They
say it is not because they fear of not
getting a just decision but because they
hold that the Supreme Court has no
jurisdiction. They refuse to have the
question decided even by the Chief JUS
tice and the three Republican Justices.
An old law has been discovered which
allows any person to bring suit in the
Supreme Court on the question whetll-
er it was legally passed or not.
The Republican Senators passed the
above three as testers. The Governor
has signiiied that he will designate in
some way that lie has received them
but not signed nor vetoed them. They
will then be filed with the Secretary OF
State and become laws in five days.
Then proceeding eau be made in court
as to whether they were legally passed
or not.
1t seems to be the program of the Re-
publicans to go ahead and pass the
necessary bills and adjourn until sum.

Yes, father"
Never mind the piano playing and Delsarte

talk. When you find a girl who can cook,
my boy, ii will be time to think of marrying
