A THRIFTY LITTLE STATE.

A good deal of fun is poked at New
Jersey for one reason and another, but no
one win deny that she is thrifty. Her
people are not complaining of trusts, and
they have pretty good reason for not do
ing so. While only few trusts are DOM
iciled within her borders the great ma
jority of the largest of them have availed
themselves of her liberal laws for incor-
poratlng trusts, with the result that she
win have an income that will almost re-
leve her people from taxation, except for
purely local purposes-that is for county
and municipal purposes. The state will
have an income sufficient TO meet all the
expenses for state purposes.
There are pretty nearly 5000 trusts, or
companies, Incorporated under the laws of
the state, The amount of stock these com
panies are authorized to issue is some
where about 2OOO. 100000 The rate of the
franchise tax is one-tenth Of l per cent.
on stock issues up to 100000, and one
twentieth of per cent. on issues from 49,
100000 up to S50OO,OOO and $50 per million
for ell in excess of $5,OOO000.
Last year new Jersey ) income from the
tax on franchises of trusts amounted TO
a little more than $SSO.OOO, and this year 1t
will reach 100000, and il is expected that
next year she win realize as much as ST.
100000 if not considerably more than that
sum. Under the circumstances it is not
60 be wondered at that her people are not
as bitter against trusts as are the people
Of some Of the other states.
II may be- however, that all of the COM
pauies that have awaited themselves of the
states liberal laws win not be able TO
carry into effect their pans and dispose OF
their shares, and consequently will fail
to pay their franchise taxes. Some OF
them have already defaulted, and il is not
improbable that more OF them will do so.

curires very freely. They have an i'm.
preston that most of the trusts are over
capitalized and that it win be well TO

PEACE CONGRESS PROPOSITIONS.

Nothing definite has yet been done by
the Cars peace conference. and it is a
question whether anything of an impor-
tant character will be done. All Of the
nations represented in the Congress seem
10 think that something ought TO be done
along the line of the Cars suggestions,
but they find it extremely difficult to reach
an agreement on any proposition. It
would nos be surprising, therefore, if the
Congress should adjourn without binding
the nations 70 anything
The arbitration plan presented by the
American delegates is a very fair one,
and has been highly commended by the
English press. 1t doesn't seem to meet
the approval of some OF the other Pow
ers, however and the chances are that
II win not be adopted. In our dispatches
yesterday there was a quotation from an
article in the London Times on the Amer
lean proposition to exempt private prop
erty at sea from capture in time of war.
The United States have always contended
that property Of this class should be ex
empt from capture, but have never been

says that Great Britain couldn't afford
to indorse this position of the policy of the
United States unless all of the nations
should bind themselves never again TO
treat breadstuns as contra band of war.
Il Is easy 10 understand why England
takes this position, and why she main
tains such a great navy. If she should
have war with Germany OF France or
Russia. or with any two or more of the
continental Powers having strong navies
her people would be in danger of starving.

Nothing would give her greater satisfac-

There are so many interests to consider,
and such great anxiety on the part of
each nation represented in the congress
to get some concession without giving up

SENATOR HANNA AND THE CHAIR
MANSHIP

Senator Hanna Indignantly denies the
report sent out from Washington that he
intends TO resign the Craftsmanship of the
Republican national committee He says
he win retain the position until the end
of his term. His term viii end with the
election of a new committee. He WIZ
therefore call the next Republican con-
yention 10 order
1t is of very little importance to the Re
publican party whether he retains the
Craftsmanship of The committee or not, as
there is not very much of Importance to
do before the meeting of the national
convention. 1t is a forgone conclusion
that the President will be renomnated
unless something unforeseen happens be-
fore the convention meets TO destroy the
confidence of his party in his ability to
carry the next presidential election. The
question as to whether Senator Hanna
will accept the craftsmanship for another
term is of vastly more importance to his
party than whether ne will serve out his
present term.
1t is doubtful if the Republicans could
get another chairman who could do as
much to assist their party to retain con-
troll of the government as Senator Hanna
can. He proved himself an exceptionally
able campaign manager in 1886, and it is
certain that it would be difficult, without
his assistance, to raise the amount need
ed for campaign expenses. He has the
confidence of those who are expected to
contribute TO the campaign fund
1t is doubtful however, if he will con-
sent to manage the Republican campaign
in 1900. He says that he cannot afford TO
do So His health will not permit and his
private interests demand his attention
He is going TO Europe in a few days for
mis- health, being a great sufferer from
rheumatism. 1t is expected, however
that great pressure will be brought to
bear on him TO induce him to manage the
campaign next year.
IL may be that one of the reasons why
he would like TO keep out of a conspicu-
Gus place in next years campaign is the
dislike he has to being caricatured. Some
of the pictures which were made of him
during the last campaign were of char
acter TO make him wish he had never
had anything to do with politics. If he
should be the Republican campaign man
ager in 1900 the artists who make men
famous or infamous with their pencils
would do their utmost TO make life miser-
able for him.

Henry.s scars Ten of GaIIantry.

The face Of Gen. Guy v. Henry, the
Military Governor of Porto Rico is dis
figured by many scars. says the Washing
ton Star. Through each check there is a
bullet-hole, tie bridge OF his nose is brok-
en- and the left eye is duls and co.oriess.
To The men who served with Henry, in
1873 each scar speaks of a thrilling episode
in The famous expedition against the Sioux
in the Big Horn and Yellowstone country.
Col Henry was nj charge OF the Second
battalion of the Third Cavalry one June
morning, while The troops were camping
for breakfast in little ravine. the out
plckets rushed back with the startling an
nouncement that The Sioux were coming in
force.
There was barely time to sound Boots
and Saddles before the nights about the
valley sWarmed with the savages. Within
twenty minutes a pitched battle was in
progress, the Indians, of whom there were
several thousand, coming down from the
ridge in series of desperate charges.
AT the hight of the combat one part of
the American dine, under Capt VroOm,
was pushed out beyond its support and
was being punished severely the Indians
getting between it and the main body. Col,
Henry. seeing the peril Of his brother Of
hcer, sent his command pelimell 10 the res
cue.
Just as they swept dpon the Indians
with upEtted sa0res a flying bullet struck

CHARGE Down under the galloping hoofs
of the combatants he iurched and IN an
instant was lost to sight in the swirling
dust.
The fall of their leader caused a tenn
porary panic among the soldiers, but they
soon rallied, and after driving off the In
dams they searched for the colonel. He
was found al last, covered with blood but
as they tenderly picked him up they saw
that life sim remained in the bruised body.
He was placed upon a blanket in the
shade, and everything possible was done
10 aid him. II was then that one of the
other officers condoled with him. saying.

The gallant Henry, barely able to articu-

he carried with him indelible proofs of

MORE FIGHTING SHIPS NEEDED.

In an article in the New York Independ-
ent, Rear Admiral Sampson expresses the
opinion that our army is large enough.
but that the number of our lighting ships
should be greatly increased. 1t is proba-
BILE that if Gen. Miles were 10 write an ar
ticle on the American army he would say
that while it would be advisable to have
a few more fighting ships. the great need
Of the country at the present time is
much larger army. The officers OF the
navy think the welfare Of the country
depends upon the navy and the officers
OF the army are certain that it depends
upon the army. 1t is but natural, Of
course, that an army or naval officer
should think the service to which he be-
longs the more important
The part which the navy played in the
war with Spain justihes naval officers in
thinking that the Importance of the navy
cannot be overestimated, but just at pres
ent the eyes Of the country are upon the
army. If an increase at this particular
time is needed anywhere it is in the army.
our soldiers in the Philippines are having
a pretty hard time of it. They are, of
course, winning victories all the time, but
the enemy they are fighting won't stay
whipped. The Filipinos do not ight in
the open. They conduct guerrilla war
fare. They are in the forests and swamps
and are hard TO get at. The climate also
is greatly against our troops. But not
withstanding all of these disadvantages
they have made a splendid record. 1t
may be that Gen. Otis understands the
situation and that he doesn't need any
more troops than the government is able
to send him without calling for volunteers,
but at this distance from the field of ac-
ton, it would seem 20 be the part of wis
dom TO give him all the troops he can use
10 advantage, so as TO bring the war 10 a
close at an early day as possible.
We have no doubt. however. that Rear
Admiral Sampson is right when he says
that we need more lighting ships. if we
are to hold the Philippines permanently.
We shall have to have a large naval
force on the Pacific coast as well as on
the Atlantic coast. We shall have great
interests in the Pacihc-interest which
may require the most careful watching
and a great deal of protection. What is
to come out of the movement to dismem-
Der the Chinese empire no one can for
see, but it is evident that if that move
ment is persisted in this country win have
some thing to say in regard to it. The
influence of what we say win be in pro-
portion TO the respect in which our navy
is held.

AN EFFICIENT cONsTABULARY
FORCE.

In the discussion of the lynchings in
this state and the crime which leads to
them we. were struck by the suggestion
of ex-Gov. Northen-we believe 1t was
ex-Gov. Northen-that the constabulary
force in the rural districts should be in
creased sufficiently to give the women of
farm houses and other Isolated places
protection, and we notice that Judge
Speer. in his eloquent address before the
law class of Mercer University, repeated
the suggestion.
We have no doubt that 1t would give
the people of the rural communities a
feeling of security to have the militia
districts thoroughly policed, but we would
like to ask If the suggestion is one that
could be adopted with any degree of sue
cess? How many men would it require
to thoroughly police a county? 1t must
be taken into account that the homes
are often widely separated, and situated
in lonely places. To be effective there
would have to be many constables in
each county-in fact scores of them. There
are communities that could not be thor
Oughly pollced II very large pofuOn
of the men In them We're to become con-
stables
And who would pay these constables?
The counties haven't the money with
which to do it, and 1t is certain that the
state hasn't 1t seems to us that the con-
stabulary idea is an Impracticable one.
Il sounds well, but it doesn't mean a
great deal. If the men and the money
were available for such a constabulary
as would give ample protection, there
would be no hesitation in adopting that
means of defense, but to thoroughly po-
lice the state would be a bigger under
taking than the people are prepared for.
After the crime is committed there is no
need for constables. The people are on
hand to hunt down the criminal.

DR.. Dyar, a weil-knOwn physician and
leprosy expert of New Orleans, is report
ed to have achieved some remarkable re-
suits 10 the treatment Of hat terrible dis
ease. He is credited with having effected
two positive cures with a serum, which
he believes to be the antidote Of leprosy.
The serum was made by DR.. Chalmette
French chemist, from the venom Of
snakes, and was originally designed as a
cure for snake bites. The serum is said
TO be now in wide use in India. Dr. Dyar
visited DR.. Chalmettes . laboratory in
Paris and brought away some of the
serum, having then a vague clew to his
recent discovery. It appears that among
the traditions Of the leper colony in Louis
lana was one that several lepers who had
been bitten by venomous snakes were
cured Dr. Dyar applied the serum to
hve cases of leprosy In New orleans.
In two of them cures were effected. In
two others there was marked improve
ment, while in the fifth the patients sys-
TEN repealed the serum and he became
worse DR.. Dyar is continuing his ex-
periments, and believes that he will have
still greater success.
