The State Census.

Returns of state census just completed
have been received by Secretary Kelsey
from all the principal cities of the State
and the work of revision and tabulation
will be begun at once. report must be
made to the Legislature on or before Jan
uary ID next. but Mr.. Kelsey thinks the
work will be finished by October l and
the results will then be made public.
Until the work is completed he declines
to give out figures for any of the cities.
When the first of the returns were re-
ceiyed they were given out, but it was
found there were many errors and that
trouble was likely to arise by the publica-
ton of incomplete and inaccurate figures.
Newark retains her place as the largest
city in the State, and shows an increase
much greater than that of Jersey City, her
only rival and the only other city of the
first class. Paterson, the first city of the
second class, shows an increase of over "a
per cent. over the national census of $780,
and barely failed of transfer to the first
class. the deficiency being less than 5000.
The only changes in the classification of
cities by the State census will be in the
cases of Plainfeld and Bridgeton, which
are transferred from the third to the
second class, and will join Passaic and At
lantic City, which were promoted by the
census of 1890. For several years there
has been demand for a Redistribution
law. which should include, say, cities of
from 10000 to 100, 900 in the second class,
and made separate class for those be-
tween 10000 and 10000. This is being
reviewed now, and indicates that move
to secure new law may be made next
winter.
Bayonne drops from eighth to ninth
place in the list, and by an exceedingly
narrow shave escapes going to tenth
place, below New Brunswick Elizabeth,
which gained but little in the ten years
from 1880 to $780, has made a jump in
the past five years. Bordentown has
steadily lost, since the removal of the
Pennsylvania Railroad shops. From 1880
to 1890 there was a decrease of 26 in
its population. and during the past five
years there has been decrease of AZ
more. Lambertville showed loss of Al
between 1880 and 1890, but, apparently,
has caught its second wind, and gained
nearly 500 in the past five years. Ba-
yonne's gain was less than 900, from
1908 to 1920, and this practical stand
still is ascribed by the local papers to
the free trade times that have closed the
factories there.
In 1890 the population of the state was
l,444. 1888, in 1880. 1,l31,116. For this
year it has been estimated that the GEN.
sus will show population exceeding
100000, the gain being mostly in the
cities.
The Federal census of 1850 showed
but three cities, or towns, in New Jer-
sey with a population exceeding 10000.
These were Newark, 1884, Paterson,

Mat Edinger, who ls employed at
Dicks mill, had one of his fingers
mashed in cog wheel, on Saturday.
An accident, that might have resulted
fatally, took place on Thursday. at the
corner of Pavilion avenue and Scott
street. George Arndt was speeding up
the avenue on his wheel, in front of Mr..
Joseph Kraus, who had also turned into
the avenue, at Fayette, directly behind
Arndt. The horse was highly excited
from fre-crackers, and at each step
gained on the bicycler. At Scott street,
both turned to the left, and Arndt, losing
command of his wheel, fell, and the car
riage was on him, in an instant, wrecking
the machine, and injuring him.

supposed to be incurable. For a grea
many years doctors pronounced it local
disease, and prescribed local remedies

local treatment, pronounced it lncurable'

constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by Cheney & Co.,

This store is singular. A
well-dehned purpose under
lies its doings. And being sin
gular, leaves us without COM
parable competition; lands us
out in the open of enlarged
opportunity, and increases the
stores responsibility to its
public.
Large operations along the
lines of trustworthy merchan-
disc bring the bargains we
offer. We are not vieing with
those stores that distribute
trash; we never handle I'M
worthy or unsatisfactory goods
because they can be sold for
little money. Such goods are
dear at any price.
But it is only the unsafe in
quality that is left unmatched.
Masterful buying in the quanti-
ties necessary for this greatest
of retail stores brings more in
teresting prices on goods Of a6'
s0lute merit than are to be
found anywhere else in this
broad land.
Goods bought at Wana-
makers are right, and best Of
their class, while the liberality
of our methods invites you to
the return of anything that
seems to less than completely
meet your wants.

Last June Dick Crawford brought his
twelve-months-old child suffering from
infaHtile diarrhea, to me. 1t had been
weaned at four months old and had al
ways been sickly. gave it the usual
treatment in such cases but without ben
eft. The child kept growing thinner
until it weighed but little more than
when born, or perhaps ten pounds.
then started the father to giving Cham
berlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhea
Remedy. Before one bottle of the 25
cent size had been used marked improve
ment was seen and its continued use
cured the child. Its weakness and puny
constitution disappeared and its father
and myself believe the child's life was
saved by this remedy. J. T. NARROW, M.

The Hackensack Republican gives cur
rency to the suggestion that every candi-
date for the legislature next fall be re-
CURED to pledge himself to vote for the
repeal of the law which provides for print
ing $4,000 copies of the annual session
laws Of the State "for the benefit of the
lawyers" The suggestion is good one.
There is no possible justification of the
law and the sooner it is repealed the bet
ter. Aside from few thousand copies
for distribution among the lawyers and
public officers. there will be no demand
for the pamphlet laws and they will be
stored away With the other literary rub
bish in the cellar Of the State House. The
new plan is an expensive humbug and
ought to be done away with.

A beverage for wheelmen.

Next to being lost at sea there is moth
ing that brings on the pangs of thirst
quicker than bicycle riding. The hot sun
and the constant inhalation of dust quick
ly parches the throat and makes the biker
long for the next stop for refreshments.
The wise rider avoids ice water, well
knowing its danger. Alcoholic beverages
are likewise tabooed because of their heat
ing propenslties, and there is little salts
faction in wishy-washy stuff sold under
the broad classification of soft drinks"
A we'll known wheelman, in speaking of
this, said:
"What to drink is no easy problem to a
man on long, hot run. The only drink
I know really fit for bicycle rider is
Hires Rootbeer, carbonated. There are
but few places now at which it cannot be
had, and tell you it braces one right up,
seems to go right down to the bottom Of
your pedal workers. 1t is cooling and re-
freshing, quickly lowering your tempera-
ture and fully satisfying your thirst
tell you there's nothing like it, and I've
sworn off all other drinks when on the
road" Hires Rootbeer, carbonated, is
made from the famous Hires Rootbeel
extract by the same formula, without
adulteration of any kind. Besides being
delicious it possesses many medicinal
qualities, making 1t as popular with
wheelmen and pedestrians as the good
homemade Hires Rootbeer is with the
folks at home.

THE TREASURY DEFICIT for the fiscal yeal
just closed is in round numbers $43, 250,-
600, which, added to the last years deficit
of nearly $70,000,000 max s total fol
the two years of about $4,000, 900, ar
average of $4,741, 1866 per th, or ovel
$158. 900 per day. This is bad showing
There has been nothing like it at any
time since the war. So long as the Re
publican party was in power, it not only
kept the receipts up to the expenditures
but also provided a surplus for the rapid
diminution of the public debt. Under
the present administration, the debt has
been increased instead of decreased, and
the Treasury gold reserve, the basis and
security of our currency. has had to be
replenished three times. The contrast
between the records of the two parties IN
this respect is an instructive and import
ant one. and the people are not likely to
forget the lesson that it teaches. 1t is
commended by the Democrats, to be sure,
that they have been at disadvantage by
reason OF un6zp0CcoU C0ndIrI0ns Of dis
turbance and depression. But what
caused these conditions. and why were
they not prevented The country was
at the fiood-tide of prosperity when the
Democratic victory Of 1892 occurred. Dis
trust and stagnation began to intervene
as soon as the Republicans retired. Moth
ing was done to restore confidence and to
encourage trade and production. The
Democrats were IN entire control of the
government, with power to take any &C.
ton that they pleased for the improve
ment of the situation. 1t will not do for
them to say that they were helpless when
they had the President and both houses
of Congress. The truth is that their own
conduct was the principal source of trou-
BILE, and that the decrease of revenue
was mainly due to their ill-advised tariff
legislation. In other words, the mon
strous deficit of $4,000, 900 for two years
stands for Democratic incapacity, and
there is no other explanation of it that
deserves a moments serious considera-
ton.
