CHRISTIAN ENDBAVoR CONVENTION
General Secretary Baer Speaks of the
Expense of the Western Trip.

- -A& 49,
john Willis Baer, General Secretary of
the United Christian Endeavor Society.
speaking of the arrangements made for
Francisco ait the sixteenth annual inter-
nation convention, says:
1T is expected that all Christian En-
deavorers will register at their head
quarters provided by the Committee of 81.
When each one registers, he will receive
a badge which will entitle him to en-
trance at all of the convention sessions.
II the convention services be advertised
to begin at 7.30 o'clock at might, the doors
viii be open for badges only Until that
time, but not a moment later. After 100
they Will be p for every one, so that
inns will give an opportunity to Epworth
Leagl1ers, members of Baptist unions and
others to enjoy the sessions,
In answering TO the criticism on the
expense attending the annual gatherings,
Mr.. Baer states that the total expenses
of the last convention held a Washiny-
ON, including all the carfare, sleeper
tickets, meals on the train rs board at
Washington, was not over half a million
dollars. That is an average of $25 for each
delegate oaltside THE CITY. In comparative
~ few of the eases, moreover, was this
money paid by the society. Almost always

deayor movement Aside from theiIeon-
versions made at Washington, and from
the deepening of the spiritual life OF many

among men, Prof, Edward E. Phelps,
M. D., LID, of Dartmouth College, who
after years OF patient investigation and
study, assisted ty all that was best in
the progress of medical science at home
and abroad first discovered the wonder
full formula of Paine's celery compound.
There is no doubt of the interest that
would be awakened at once by the an
nouncement of any discovery by Prof.
Phelps. The formula from the first was
furnished to the best physicians, and
forthwith this remarkable Paine's celery
compound was personally used and pro-
fessionally prescribed by them, h re-
suit of the closest Investigation might
have been expected. It soon required q

The Tobacco trust victory.

The Tobacco monster achieved a no.
tabs victory in the Court OF G~hancery
yesterday when it established its right to
do its business according to the common
laws and practices of business, and with
out regard to whether it helped or hurt
competitors-
If the decision Of the court had been
otherwise, the charter given by New Jer-
sey t9 its corporations would be a mock
cry, q delusiion and a snare. The notion
of giving an organization power to trans
act business and then circumscribing its
powers of using its capital within narrow
and artificial limits is an absurdity that
could only be upheld by a whippersnapper
like LexoW.
Great aggregations of capital are sub
ject to the same natural laws as small
ventures. They cannot violate these
without earning their penalty. On the
other hand, the State cannot impose arti-
fetal restrictions ON them without injury
to the people.

When Mr., Graham, writing January IS,

vice, what man or woman out of perfect
health can afford to neglect his well con-

There is no doubt that Paine's celery
compound cleans the blood of eczema,

EQUAL Taxation.

The Tribune very wisely says today
thai the reason why the Equal Taxation
bill did not pass was that Hudson had
not convinced the other counties, Essex
in particular, of the justice of its claims
Very true. The campaign of education
on this subject has been far too narrow.
But we are accustomed to the idea in
this county that we cannot get the neople
we are entitled to fair play, especially if
any interest of their own is at stake.
Thus, we have had Passaie standing
for years in the way of the protection of
the river. from which We get our drink
ing water. from sewage pollution. Thus
we found Essex for years the uneom-
promising foe of any State Water Board
scheme. So, now we find the grab Of
Newark for a $780, 900 armory a hopeless
barrier against the granting of simple
justice to US.
The Tribune further says that for
years Democratic Legislatures made no
step towards giving us equal taxation.
This is grossly unfair. Democracy gave
us all we have in the way of railroad
taxation, against the bitterest opposition
of Republicanism headed by John w
Griggs. Then for years the issue lay
dormant. All that was ever done to re-
:. 49, ~ao,I, +Lo+ = -x-oe not dooI Vrac
the annual allusion to it in the messages
of Democratic Governors.
In the years of Democratic supremacy
in the Legislature, the issue never came
up actively. The wrongs of Hudson had
not come to a climax. Fhe popular de-
mand was not loudly expressed, and so
the party was not called upon to deal
with the question, aggressiyely.
IT will doubtless be an added pain to
some good people to recall that the
REV" E. ]. oldknew Millington was
known as the 'Parkhurst of Newark"
Some months ago he was extraordinarily
active in the effort to clese all the saloons
in Newark and to drive the SOCIAL evil
out of the city. He was so very virtuous
in his care for other peoples morals that
his relations with the unfortunate LADY,
who was his victim. were overlooked for
a long time. people Of mere ordinary
goodness or badness thinking that it was
impossible for a man who was so anx-
ious about the sins of the public to be a
very special sinner himself.
