Win people never learn that a cold is
an accident to be dreaded, and that when it
occurs treatment should be promptly APP
piled? There is no knowing where the
trouble will end; and while complete re-
covery is the rule, the exceptions are terri
bly, frequent, and thousands upon thousands
of fatal illnesses occur every year ushered
in by a little injudicious exposure and SEEM
ingly trihing symptoms. Beyond this,
there are to-day countless invalids who can
trace their complaints to colds" which at
the time of occurrence gave no concern, and
were therefore neglected.-When troubled

"Hog Neck Channel,n the cove ia
the Delaware river lying along the Jer-
sey shore between Raccoon and Old
mans creeks, is the hest shad fishing
ground in the Delaware river; 1t is also
a convenient dumping place for the
mud taken from the bottom of the
Delaware opposite Philadelphia by
dredgers. For some time past forty
scow loads Of mud have been daily
dumped into the channel. with the re-
suit that the shad fishing grounds are
endangered and navigation of Oldman's
and Raccoon creeks menaced.
On Saturday night last the Bridge
port Branch of the shad Fishermen's
Protective Association, prepared a
memorial to Governor Griggs, setting
forth these facts, and petitloned for
State aid in compelling a cessation OF
the dumping Of refuse in this portion
Of the river.
The petition was laid before the Gov

1t costs Il lot of money TO run The
State government Of New Jersey, and
but for the large revenue contributed
by the railroad companies and munich
pal corporations the taxpayers of the
State would have a very heavy burden
to bear. The appropriation bill for the
fiscal year. beginning next November,
foots up a total of S2,47S, 291.32. This
includes what are called extraordinary
expenditure, as follows: War debt.
$3.50 400; Office Clerks in Chancery,
$50, 900; Camden armory, $4,000 State
hospitals, $4,000; Reform School for
Boys, $4,000; State Reformatory. $751;.
600; State Reform School, 5000; Tren-
ton Battle Monument, $500; emergen-
cy fund for the Governor $40, 900; pub
lie Schools, $lOO. 600; total, s607, 400,
leaving the ordinary expenditures at
$3.50, S91. 80. The extraordinary ex'
penditures for each year since 1898
have been as follows: 1898, S279, 042. "a;
1894, s270,4 AIS. 96; 1895, $47S, COG. AS;
1896, 1921, 4s7. 33, and as just stated,
for 1897, s6o7,4
In four years the Legislature has ap-
proprialed for armory buildings $685.
733,47; for the State Reformatory at
Railway, in two years, S175,oOO, and
for the Morris Plains State Hospital, in
two years, $124,00 In 1898, The last
time the Democrats had control, the
expenditures from the State fund were
81, S12, 2l7. 27, and in 1897 they will
amount to 50, 27S, 291. 80, which shows
an increase in four years of $456, 074 .05.
In 1898 the Democratic administration
left a balance in the Treasury of ST.
102, 1872. CT, and it is foreshowed that
the balance In 1897 will not exceed
$500, 900. The heaviest drains on the
State Treasury are by the State hospi-
tails, militia, Courts and County lunatic
asYlums. Including the appropriation
for armories, the militia alone will cost
the State next year over $500, 000. The
New Jersey National Guard comes
high, but it seems the soldier boys have
