DECORATING THE STATE HOUSE

to the Jefscy CatU Neiia

TRENTON. Dec. 10. 1S95.-One very
much needed improvement at the State
House is now being made in anticipation
of the inauguration of the new Governor.
1t is the decoration of the walls of the
Governors private room. which have
been left white since the room was
built.
The decorating is being done by J. E.
Margerum, of this city, and is entirely
hand work. The design is an elegant
one, by Artist W. e. Pedrick. and the
most. delicate tints are being used. The
seals of the Colonial Governors are rep
resented. In general effect it will cor
respond with the Governors audience
or reception room. 1T will take about
four weeks to do the work, which will
be finished In good time for the inaug-
A polished oak floor Is to be placed
over the present floor. and the handsome
rug which adorned the main room OF the
New Jersey ~headquarters building ait

The Legislature authorized the distribu-
fion Of the, Worlds Fair falrnittIre
and this magnificent rug was sent to
Morris Plains. Custodian BonneN got
Governor Werts to order its return to
the State House, where 1t will be more
in keeping with it's surroundings.
Another improvement which is being
made lis the decoration of the walls of
the Assembly wing of the main hall.
When completed the walls will CORES

They would swamp the Committee

We are very doubtful about the wisdom
of the new plan proposed for introducing
Democratic club delegations into the
County Committee. 1t has one great
fault in that it tends to make the COM
mittee big and unwieldy. 1t has another
in that it opens the door for local sore
heads and hustlers to exaggerate their
own importance. Almost any district
politician can organize a club with a
nominal membership of fifty. If that is
to entitle him to rye votes in the County
Committee he can easily become a thorn
in the side of the party leaders.
The plea is made that the new scheme
will bring in a better element as County
Committeeman. For one good man it
brings in, it is liable bring in nine of the
element which it assumes to be objec-
tionable. If a different class of men are
to take hold of the County Committee.
they must go in as workers, with the
sanction of the people secured at the
primaries.
1t is very poor policy to swamp the
County Committee with an army of mere
takers.

A Lesson in social E.hics.

The young women of College Point.
Long Island. instigated by some of the
crank women reformers n purists OF
the day, some time & undertook to
dictate a young ladylike code of morals
for the .young men of the place. Last
summer they undertook to boycott all
young men who smoked or who were
seen to enter q saloon.
The young men seem to have borne
this treatment with considerable forth
tude. They no doubt felt that their
turn would come. It came. The young
women undertook to give a ball last
Thursday night. Then the young men
simply boycotted the ~boycotters. They
staid away from the ball. and it turned
out to be about as cheerful an event as
a shaker prayer meeting.
The young men were right. They did
well to vindicate their right of self-con-
troll against a silly and meddlesome die
tation. founded on NO correct principle In
religion, morals or social organization.
They inflicted a deserved lesson, they re-
buked a form of cant and humbug which
is becoming an unbearable nuisance in
smaller communities. They contributed
towards restoring the true balances from
which a large class of radical teachers
are attempting to displace the world.
