MASSACHUSETTS,, the first Stale to adopt
the Australian ballot system, has adopted
another new thing which COMES from the
antipodes. This is the Torrers system of
land transfer, which also comes from Au-
stralia. The system does away with all
uncertainty as to real estate titles and
abolishes searches. 1t establishes a regis
trv of title. which makes the title abso-
Lutte and incontestible. the State becoming
the g~liaranter. Under his plan the trans
fer Of real estate becomes as simple and
safe as the sale of personal property,
ana unless the experience OF Massachu-
Sets shall disclose some objections which
do not yet appear. It is limos certain
that ii will not be long before this sys-
tenn is adopted by all the States.-Buffaso

JERSEY lily. NV. ~ 1920
To Hon. Edward Hoos, Mayor
Dear Sir-I nave notified the President
Of the Board of Education concerning the
u~nsanitary condition of School No. IL. on
Crescent avenue. I find on investigation
that the cellar of said school is lower
han the sewer in street. and that the
boiler pit is still lower than the cellar
floor, and that frequently the cellar is
flooded with water, and always more or
less water in boiler pit. Diphtheria and
scarlet fever are increasing to an alarming
extent among the scholars of School No.
Y, and ! would respectfully recommend
the putting in of an independent sewer,
to run to Communipaw avenue. Hoping
you will use your officers to further this
Improvement, / remain.
Your respectfully,
d. w. BENJAMIN.
Inspector.
The Board adopted a resolution request
ing the Street and Water Board to con-
struct an independent sewer connecting
School No. u with the sewer on Commu-
nipaw avenue, of such capacity as will
properly drain the school, ard directing
the Clerk TO transmit to the Street and
copy of the resolution.
When seen by a reporter for the
News" this morning, Health Inspector
Benjamin said: II do not want to need
lessly alarm the people of jersey City.
so at present I do not care to go into the
details of the trouble at No. u School.
All / will say is that 81 children are out
of school at present with scarlet fever
and ~dfphtheria, and unless the condition
of the building is reinedied within a few
days / shall close the school. The whole
trouble is that the cellar is lower than
the ever, and the boiler pit is still lower.
The water backs up and floods
the cellar and boiler pit and
s~fagnates sending vile cdors and
foul air up to the class rooms.
All the cases of ~diphtheria and scarlet
fever are among children in the primary
classes, who are taught in rooms which
are located directly over the cellar. Per
haps when / have had an interview with
President Abernethy. of the Board of
Health. I win be in a position to mak
public the details of the case

Churchill.

Judge Trolson was in fror Churchill
Monday and he said the County Conven-
tions, Republican, Democrat and Silver,
will be held in Naughn's Hall. Politics
are warming up little and several local
questions will come up as issues. One
is to extend the county road from Still
water by Barb Browns, and the opinion
that this should be done is about univer-
sal. Another issue is the proposed re-
moval of the county seat from Saltwater
TO New River. This proposition will not
meet with all-around favor, but Judge
Trolson says the whisky is poor at Still
water. and the water poorer than the
whisky, and the tule hay they keep is
poorest OF all New River is more CEN
tral, prettier, the chore of verybody in
the county but the Stillwa.erites, and is
bound to be the headquarters for county
officials. By the way, the Judge thinks
the railroad assessments should be in
creased by $1,000 per mile of track in
valuation and the extra money applied
to an increase in the salaries OF the
county officers. Men who seek office
will be requested to define their posi-
tions in regard to these local issues.
Among the candidates he has heard OF
are w. W. Williams. without an oppon-
ent, for Senator; Glen Cnshman and
l. H. Kent for Assemblynan, with
the idea that Mr.. Kent will drop to

Our True ideal.

Mr.. Bryce in his fine Fourth of July
speech in London said: Tho splendid
deeds of heroism of your soldiers and
sailors thrill our hearts as could no ex-
ploits of men in whose veins onr hlooa'
did not run. America is possessed of
the power to become a great conquering
and colonizing people. but to make
great people happy, free and prosperous
is nobler than any foreign conquest
Therefore We hope that nothing will
divert the United States from that
task. " This pregnant utterance is worth
weighing and pondering. Whether or
not we enter on career of territorial
extension our pivotal interests are at
home. Ii by foreign ambition we forget
or fall short of wise and effective re-
gard to our internal greatness as COM
monwealth no brilliancy of exploits, no
aggrandizement of conquest will give
recompense The prol . m which tho
United States has so far worked out so
successfully, that of combining the ut
most individual freedom and opportuni-
ty with such skillfully adjusted re-
straints as preserve the needs Of law
and order, has been model and stim-
ulus to the world If we should ever be
diverted from that sagacious study OF
the things which belong to this end by
the mere cheats of ambition, it would
be sad day for us and for humanity at
large.
1t is not necessary to assume that the
immediate profit of territorial gain and
commercial influence, which seem likely
now to accrue, will divert our attention
from the ideals which are essential,
but that there is always danger of di-
version under such new conditions his
tory has shown. To dazzle the national
imagination is sometimes to blunt the
national conscience and to blind tho ma
tionaI common sense There are many
wise men and good patriots who fear
that foreign conquest points in this di-
rection. Others not less wise and good
do not regard the danger as one to be
counted in the conditions which are
now ccnverging, firm in the belief that
our organic growth is vital i'll its health
and power. The future alone can fully
decide this question Of political morals
il We decide to plant ihe slars and
stripes in distant lands. TIE advocates
Of territorial extension ard Il large part
in the worlds affairs are no less believ-
ers than their opponents in the impor-
tance Of primary devotion to the great
questions Of the North American CONT
uent. II is to Lt hoped that this keen
sense will prove an abiding safeguard
vhafeyer steps we may take to reap the
..al Dacyo5s rip2 ior Ae sickle.

ROOF FELL IN.
Man Had Fortune in His Hill, But
Didn't Take it.

A farmer in Kentucky had a six-foot
vein of coal cropping out of q hill on
his farm and used to take out g little
for his own use, but when he tunneled
in short ways it caved and he aban
doned it because 'tthe roof wouldn't stay
up"
The man who bought the farm cleaned
out the mouth of the tunnel put strong
timbers in so that the roof remained in
place and he took out over $500 Coo
worth oe coal. -
The first owner had a good and valu-
able thing in his hand but failed to get
the good because OF his inattention and
lack of application. The good things OF
this world come to those who use their
reason end common sense to develop,
what they have. Many a man who
needs the strong nourishment contained
in Postum Food Coffee, has been driven
from it because the Postum was served
