This Is the Truth.

The effort OF any newspaper to build
up town is practically nullified unless
it is backed up by the business men.
A stranger turns from the news columns
OF a paper to it's advertising pages, and
if he fails to lind there the business cards
Of the merchants and professional firms
he comes to the conclusion that the pub
Usher is not appreciated, in which case
it is good place for him to keep clear
OF No town ever grew up without the
active assistance OF it's newspaper. Nor
can papers grow and build up their loca-
tiles without the assistance of thetown.
Business men should realize this and
remember in giving support to the news
paper they are not only building up
their own business but help to support
that which is steadily working for the
growth ofthe wholetown. -Hammonton

The frightful accident at Absecon

and it is only question of time when
somebody is killed at such ungarded

tinually on the increase and no

HanmOntOn FavOrs Pleasant
Vile.

| The following fcrclDle artlcle from
| the Atlantic Journal, OF Hammonton,
| indicates the trend OF public opinion
| in that enterprising town, and shows
| that the citizens are wide AWAKE to aid
| the movement in favor OF erecting new
| county buildings in Pleasantville. Ham,
monton residents who have business
at the county seat are among those
most seriously inconvenienced by the
county buildings being in their pres
ent location. From the AtlanticJ ournSl,
June 20.
"A few weeks ago petitions were placed
| in the hands of three Hammontonians
who secured number OF good citizens
| to sign in the interest OF moving the
County Buildings from Mays Landing
| to either Pleasantville OF Atlantic City.
The Hammonton petitions have not
Freeholders, but will at the next meet
ing OF that body. The three will be ac-
companied by several Others that are
now being circulated and Willingly signed.
The Hammonton, Egg Harbor, FL
wood, Absecon and Atlantic City resi-
dents are working hard to impress on
the minds of the Board OF Freeholders
that the County Capital should and
must be moved to more suitable an
convenient place.
Mays Landing is not easy OF access
only to those who residein atimmediaH
vicinity. Ii II nmonton man has a
few moments business at the County
seat he must lose a day to attend to
it, thereby mourning an expense OF sew
eral dollars.
All know that Pleasantville is more
the county to have the capital and public
buildings located. The subject OF removal
has been discussed for che past month
or two in the county papers and they
advocate anearly change.
All know the why's and wherefore s
and it is needless for US to give them
in long drawn outand gaseous srti-
Gle.
: Sign and work for Pleasantville dear
reader and when you have business at
court you can reach it without running
up and down q triangle.
The cost OF erecting new structures
will not be as great as many are inclined
to belive. Woodbury. smammoth
jail, court and jury rooms, built OF solid
stone and handsomely finished.
They were built few years ago at
cost of only $4,000.
Every taxpayer should use his utmost
influence to have the Freeholders spend
no more mony on the old structures
at Mays Landing.
Also SOmers' Point.
The Borough Council at Somers' Point
on Monday evening passed resolutions
similar to those recently passed by the
Council of Atlantic City in favor OF
making Pleasantville the County Seat.
Outside of Mays Landing and it's
immediate vicinity public opinion seems
to be nearly all one way.

text found in I'd Corinthians, 18th chap
ter, 2dverse, 81 knew man in Christ
Jesus" The subject led the pastor to
define different, inds of men, and to speak
OF their characters, their lives, and their
deeds. Not all men who enter the pulpit
are God-fearing men. Not all who go
to the legislative halls of the State and
Nation are honest, ptriotic men. Not
all who sit on the Judges benches are
upright and feargless men. To be q man
in thehighest sense his life must be based
upon Christian principles upon the
solid rock OF Christianity.
The pastor then proceeded to speak
OF the bond of union that existed be-
tween the Grand Army men and the
order OF American Mechanics, one being
the past and the other thefuture defenders
OF the country. The church was beauti-
fully and handsomely decorated and
large audience was present including
delegat on from the lexington Lodge

"Though Lost to Sight to Memory
Dear.o

Station Agent Reed got valuable tip
last week upon some points of the bicycle
question. Three gay and festive scorchers
of the female persuasion boarded the
motor train at Atlantic City and took
their wheels along with them. When
Conductor Tommy Higgins went his
rounds to collect the tariff on them, the
fair scorchers refused to pay, and when
the train arrived here he turned them
over-the wheels, not the women-to
Mr.. Reed tohold until the freight charges
were paid. The ladies demanded to see
the regulations that authorized him to
collect the money, and the polite station
agent started at once for the office to
produce the law and the gospel upon the
subject. He had no sooner entered the
doorway, however, than the fair scor-
chers mounted their little wheels and
struck a gait that champion wheel
man might envy. When "Reedy" ap-
peared again upon the platform armed
with the proper document to substan-
tiate the Railroad COmpany's claim, tine
wheels were gone, the women were gone,
and nothing of the whole outfit was in
sight except a cloud of flying lingerie aud
hosiery just turning the corner away
down at the Shore Road.

Capture of a Bicycle Thief.

There was quite an exciting wind up,
here, Friday afternoon, to the chase
after young negro who stole a bicycle
in Atlantic City from a young man
named Charles Smith. The negro, who
gave his name as Harry Wilson of
Harrisburg, Pa. stole the wheel from in
front of the hotel and got a good start
before he was discovered. When the
loss was known, however, a number of
athletic riders mounted their wheels
and "scOrched'' across the meadow
Turnpike at a rapid gait. They found
the wheel at the West Jersey station
checked for Camden, and also the thief
checked for nowhere in particular and
ready to move in any direction. This
he did at once, pursued by large crowd
bent up upon his capture He started
for the woods of West Pleasantville and
brought up in the mud of Lakes Bay.
This wild steering was probably due to
excitement and the desire to evade his
pursuers. He was caught and over
powered and taken before Justice
Abbott, who thought his compasses
needed readjHsting before making
another voyage across the meadows
alone on wheel, and with that idea in
view Seuu Hill W JdiI dU Mdy Iduuluk
to await trial in September.
"I.anding'' In the White House.
In paragraph on the Vice-P Presidency
The Atlantic City Daily Press ofTuesday
says" Here's hoping that the last
Jerseyite nominated, to wit Garrett A.
Hobart, will land in the White House,"
Does the Press want Mckinley to die,
if elected? That is the only way Hobart
can become President during the next
four years. If elected, he becomes the
presiding officer of the Senate, but has
no official footing at the White House
unless he goes there by the death OF
the President. Ofcourse he could Gland
in the White House" at some succeeding
election by being nominated and elected
President, but Martin Van Buren was
the only man who has landed there in
that way since the Constitution was
amended in 1904. We think Mr.. Hobart
should consider himself lucky to Gland
the Vice-Presidenty, and we are sure
that SO ardent supporter as the Press
does not mean all that it's words imply.
