MARY FISHER HOME.
Hotel Association Changes Its
Name at Tenafly Yes
terday.

There. was an excellent meeting of the
Home Hotel Association. yesterday after
noon, at the Home Hotel. in Tenafy,
New Jersey, although Jersey City was
represented by only two members, Mrs.
A. J.. New1bury and Miss Louisa NJ. Edge.
However, there was a. goodly representa-
ton from Newark, Passaic and surround
ing cities, and all went well.
or course the first thing the ladies did
upon their arrival was to investigate the
promises. The house was procured only
last June and many of the members had
never taken the opportunity to visit the
premises, which consist of the old Clark
estate. comprising about two acres OF
ground. beautifully situated, wherein Is
a spacious. old fashioned house Of fifteen
or more rooms. Here artists OF any pro-
f~ession. or professionals Of any art,
to whom the world has not been as gem
erous In her distributions of g~reenbacks
as she might nave been, or who are just
starting out ON their artistic career, may
find a home, as ~congenial as refined taste
and management a make It, at a NOM
inal board. 1t is a place not set aside for
old or young. women or men, hui a home
where all may meet as In one big family.
Already the home has nine inmates, and
it is probably that the demand will be
greater than the accommodation.
1t was a wise move on the part of the
association to open this house for the
summer months, for during that time
many summer guests. more fortunate in
this worlds goods, ave been accommo-
dated, netting the association about four
hundred dollars above expenses.
After inspecting the home a business
meeting was called, when n of the first
things lone was to change the name from
the Home Hotel Association to the Mary
Fisher Association, In honor of the presi-
lent and founder, and because some OBJ
lection was made to the term "hotel,'
as significant of stables, bar and the
usual paraphernalia expected at a hotel.
Then ways and means of raising money
were discussed with the result that each
city, and nearly all the principal cities
throughout the State are represented.
should hold an entertainment. Probably
the first of these will tax place in New
ark. when Mrs. Susan Hayes Ward will
lecture.
Among the members in this city are
Mrs. A. ]. N~ewbury, Mrs. Althea Ran
dolph Bedle, Mrs. e. F. C. Young, MRS.
P.-J. Koonz. Mrs. James H. Noe and Mrs.
Alexander Campbell.

Republican Financing!

The Tribune this morning, has the
amazing impudence to print half a column
of fulsome nonsense IN praise of Repub-
ncan management of the State finances.
The excuse is the fact that at the close
Of this year the States surplus win be
Increased from a million to about a mill
ion and a half of dollars. This. the cam
paign editor assumes Is a proof of como
my ana skill. and deserves recompense
at the hands of the people.
The fact is it is due to -extraneous
causes In which the State administration
has neither hand, act nor part. 1t is due
TO the enormous increase in the humble
and capitalization of corporations which
are organized in our State on account Of
the unusual liberaHty of our corporation
laws. an these avs all date back to the
epoch Of Leon Albeit, who framed them,
supported them. and created our present
system of State finance with Them as a
basis.
Thus. this fiscal year, expiring IN the
slst day of this month, the total amount
of fees received from corporations for
fling certificates viii be about $3.50, 900
against the Comptroller's estimate of
about $4,000, based upon the figures of
last year. 1t Is obvious that the party
in power IL entitled to no credit what
ever for this fortunate windfall. The fact
is, as WIN be seen from some other fig
ures which we shall give In a moment
II the income of the State had remained
ut its normal figure. there would have
been a deficiency in the years balance
sheet which would have wiped out more
thai half Of the old million dollar sur
plus which Albeit created and left as a
legacy to h State at the close of his
second term
To dispose Of the Republican claim Of
economy and good management, 1t Is only
necessary to place before the people once
more the same old table. showing the
expenses of the State for the last twenty
five years. Here it Isl

Ketoham's Astonishing EHronter,

Kefoham's Astonishing 6HFonteNSs
There Is nothing In the history OF the
state more indecent than the squabbie
over the presentation of the sword to
Admiral Sampson. The conduct Of Cover
nor VOORHEES, has been that of a spoiled
child. who refuses to play because ne
cannot have his own way in every detail.
His childish conduct, however, is yenlai
In comparison with the indecenoy OF
Senator Ketchauf of Essex, who takes adj
vantage Of his position as Chairman OF
the Committee Of Arrangements, to thrust
himself into prominence as the deiiverer
Of the presentation speech. This proceed
ing Is the act of a cad Of the first water.
1t Is q snub to the Governor. an insult to
the people and a slight to the distinguish
ed officer who is entitled to receive the
gift of the State from the hands and with
the accompanying expressions of the Chief
Magistrate.
Besides its indecency as a public act,
Ketcham's intrusive conduct is disgusting
from the personal point of view. 1t is not
only the conduct of a cad but of a con-
ceIted jackass. And this Is what Ketcham
is. He is no more fit to make this presen-
tation speech than he would have been
to command a warship of Santiago. We
can imagine the dish of cheap platitudes
In lame English tina he will offend the
State with.
Do not some of the Republican leaders
In he State know enough to call him off
and call him down?

Father Carroll then began the task of
awarding the prizes. In a neat speech he
congratulated the members on the splen-
| did showing made and said he felt proud
to have such an organization affiliated
with St. Patrick's Church. lie was going
away to Europe IN about five weeks, he
| said. and he proposed that another euchre
be held before he left for his tour with
Bishop Wigger. This suggestion was re-
ceived with applause.
Father Carroll presented the special
prize of IS in gold to Miss Laura Welsh
for winning the largest number of games
She had a total of nine out of a possible
ten. Miss Eleanor Lennon captured the
ladies' second prize, a silver butter dish.

Mr.. Dill Gives Reasons for
the States Popularity
With the Corpora
tons.
SURPLUS IN The GOLFERS
Sensational Testimony Is Elk
pected From Charles
E. Edgerly.


WASHINGTON, Oct. 10, 1sss.-There
were six witnesses before the Industrial
| Commission yesterday, the first on the
| list being James B. Dill, a New York
| attorney, who was presented as an ex-
| pert ON the corporation laws OF New
Jersey.
Mr.. Dill said that If the corporation
laws of the State were enforced tramp
| corporations would find it impossible to
| exist there. The laws, in his opinion,
were not only just and fair in their re-
| ouirements, both to the corporations and
the public, but they provided heavy PEN
alties for their violation.
But, while all this was true, Mr.. Dill
said he feared that the laws had been
more lronored in the breach than IN the
observance. He also thought that many
of the corporations were organized at
much too high a figure.
Mr.. Dill gave several reasons for New
Jerseys popularity with the corporations
as an organizing State. The first of these
was found in the fact that the State
has a financial surplus, rendering 1t inn
probable that the corporations will be
drawn upon, In case Of a squeeze, to
make up a deficit,
Another reason for this popularity was
because the corporation laws have prac-
u.aiy 80 800 not +ha
.nif'y $500 a'I $500 ana i'm
movable. He thought the time would
come when corporations would be con-
trolled by a national law
