1t is said that the expense of making
the Companion art Calendar for 1897 was
80 great that had it been published In the
usual quantity it could not be sold for
less than one dollar. Four beautiful
female figures are repoducsd On four
folding pages. Each figure is Autograph
ed In twelve colors, being true repro
duction OF the original water color paint
ing, which was selected because of it's
excellence Of design and charm Of colJr
and tone. The size of each of the four
folding pages is 104 by inches.
1t Is by far the best piece of color work
the Companion has ever offered. Both as
a calendar and as a gem of the litho-
grapher's art, it is so attractive that it
becomes a valuable addition to the man
tel or centre table of any room. 1t is
given free to all new subscribers sending

> NOTES AND COMMENTS.

Senator Tillmau turned up go mild at
thesopening of Congress, that it is feared
be lost his pitchfork during the campaign.
The silver Senators are little shy of
the Republican caucus. They needn't be
afraid of the spider, however. He simply
wants to elcome them back to the fold
again.
President Cleveland is in harmony with
the general sentiment in at least one
clause of his message, and that is where
be expresses satisfaction over the result
of the election.
1t would be nice thing, of course, for
the New Jersey National Gaurd to escort
Viee-P President Hobart to Washington
and take part in the Inauguration parade,
but perhaps there would be a trifie too
much of the spread eagle in such an
undertaking.
President Cleveland certainly has no
been the loser from his occupancy of the
Presidential office. His private fortune
when he became Governor fourteen years
ago was estimated at s25, 900. When he
was elected to the Presidency two years
later he was worth about the same
amount. At the end of his first term
financial experts figured him as being
worth $250,0O0. One.half of this sum
represented his savings from the 5000, OOC
that the Government paid him for his
four years of service. The other $125 OGt
represented fortunate investments in real
estate and railway stocks. Mr.. Cleve.
lands practice during the four years that
elapsed between his first and second
terms as President Melted him $780, q
year, from which he saved at least $685..
600 year. At the present, judging from
his investments, it is agreed that the
President is worth 81, 1000, 900, and he has
even been rated at $4,000, 900.

The American people live such busy

Neso York Tribune has resolved to issue a
colored supplement of 16 pages, full OF
Ipiotures, jokes and entertaining matter, to
ehe readers of its Semi Weekly paper.
aV6ile primarily intended for the young
and for those mem of the family who
have craving for lighter reading than
politics or business, this supplement
promises to be of interest to every men :
Der OF the family. There is great need
for a low priced popular humorous
weekly 10 this country. The present
pictorial weeklies, whether printed in
black or in colors, all sell for 10 cents 8
COPY. or for $500 a year. The Tribune
colored supplement is virtually 5 cent
pictorial weekly. in colors. worth So 80 a
year. At this price, however, it would be
expensive, if sold separately, bpt it is to
be sent free to every subscriber to the
Semi Weekly 7Fsbune who pays the regular
Drine Of $500 year. This is a bargain,
considering the fact that The Tribune is
incapable OF sending into any family any
thing which is unfit to be read there. We
presume that the Semi Weekly IFi6usi
will now enjoy boom and Its enterprise

The Newark Neaos has received infor-
nation that the Democrats in the coming
Legislature intend to present and support
bills putting all county officers on salaries
and requiring that their fees now col
lected be paid TO the counties. AS to
whether it is the purpose of the movers
of this change to really advocate economy
and reform, or simply put the Republi.
can majority Cd record, the NeUs is not SC
fully informed. There may be and no
doubt are good grounds for the change,
especially in the larger counties, but the
fact that it originates with the Democrats,
at time when they are in a hopeless
minority, and evidently feeling around
for some issue by which they may at
least regain some of their lost prestige,
instead of when they were in the majority,
and able to carry such reforms, will at
least subject the proposition to good
deal of scrutiny before it receives legisla-
tive sanction,
The Monitor-register., 1896-12-11

The Hunterdon Republican raises the
query as to the advisability of the iucom-
ing Legislature inaugurating reform oy
abolishing Boards of Freeholders. The
Republican seems to think that some less
cumbersome and less costly method of
conducting the affairs of the county
ought to be devised in this bright, pro-
gressive age. Perhaps, but as the
Republican has no special scheme to
present, it is not likely that the Legisla-
.ure will tackle such big question at
the coming session. If all the reform
measures that have been suggested are to
be considered this winter what would
become of the short session that has been
predicted, and which Governor Griggs
and others have hoped the necessary
legislation might be pressed into
Reforms SO radical need to be carefully
considered before being adopted, and
only after the wisdom of the change has
been fully demonstrated. The experience
has too often been that such reforms do
not, as promised, relieve the county of
any of its burden of expense, which, after
all, is the purpose in view.

The subject of taxation is becoming
one of absorbing interest to all classes OF
property owners, and on all sides the
question is being asked as to how these
burdens are to be lightened. The query
Is not confined to any locality, but is
general throughout the State, and the
appeals to the State Board of Taxation,
at its sittings in the different counties,
indicate the extent to which this burden
is felt, and the desire to find relief by
some means. The Sussex Herald, in
speaking of the matter, says that not in
many years, If ever, has the tax rate been
as high in that county as the present
year, and that with land selling at $40 to
$50 an acre the enormity of the tax rate
ia beyond ali precedent. In this section,
while not 50 much fault is found with
the tax rate, there Is avery general
demand for aiower valuation. and especi
ally on farm land. The whole question
needs to be thoroughly discussed, the

only remedy at all apparent is reduction
in expenditures for public purposes a
remedy, we are aware, that is by no means
easy Of application, yet it really offers the
only real solution of the difficulty. The
public expenditures, already large. with
the tendency to increase rather than
diminish, the taxing authorities are
obliged to raise the amount out Of such
property as they can find in the taxing
districts. This, Of course, opens mp the
subject as to whether the burden is az
equally distributed as it ought to be, and
it may be possible that there is room for
improvement here.and perhaps general

it can be done. Oar columns are open TO
