Let US see what it is that a contrac-
ton in currency does. The fewer the
dollars in circulation Of course the more
the dollars which remain in circulation
will buy. A dollar which once bought
a bushel Of wheat now buys two bush
els of wheat-that is, the farmer has to
raise two bushels Of wheat to get a dol
lar, instead of one bushel, as formerly.
So the manufacturer sells his goods for
half what he used to get for them. In
adapting himself to a contracted ourren-
cy the manufacturer or trader loses very
heavily. The borrower Of money is q
heavy loser.
He pays not only interest, which is
harder to raise every year, II the
purchasing value Of money increases
with contraction, but he is bound to pay
a principal much larger, reckoned in
the purchasing value of money. than
his original loan. 1t is not at all sur
prisiug that the capitalist wants the
present system continued. 1t is and has
been n bonanza to him. With the year
ly increasing Value of a dollar he would
become enriched ever if there were no
interest accruing. No n need wonder
when he sees the c pitalist strong for
the gold standard. Contraction in cur
rency is and always has been the great
panic maker, Charles j. Bellamy.

The; Veteran Act.

When the Democrats organized the
County Board of .Freeholders at the
May meeting last spring they elected a
new Court House Janitor to succeed
Harry Peterson, and o new Board of
Almshouse Trustees. The old Trustee
from Salem was Smith Bilderback,
who claimed he was entitled TO remain
in Office forever because he was II veter-
an of the Civil War. He appeared at
the meeting of the Almshouse Trustees
and made his claims known, and also
appealed to the State Supreme Court to
be reinstated. Tie Court made its
opinion known Oh Monday and refused
to reinstate Mr.. Bildelbaek, under the
Veterans act, because the court holds
that the statute under which he was
appointed fixes the term OF office.
1t will be remembered that Mr.. Pet
erson appealed his dismissal to the Su-
preme Court and the Court decided
that he could not be dismissed because
he was a veteran.
The Court on Monday also decided II
similar case. L. j. Wendell, a Repub
lican Veteran was City Clerk, of New
ark, who under a previous decision of
the Court held on indefinitely, under
the veteran act. The Democratic
Council removed him on the ground of
charging for certified copies of the
Council proceedings to the purchaser
of city bonds. The Court held that he
had a right to charge for that and was
entitled to his office,
In all appointments it would be well
to make all offices have a definite term
so as to abolish life s%iuecures. The
last national democratic platform lays
down a fair and just rule for office as
follows:
"We are opposed to life tenure in the
civil service except as provided in the
constitution. We favor appointments
based upon merit, fixed terms of office
and such an administration of the civil
service laws as will afford equal oppor
tunities to all citizens of a%scertalneC
ftness.n

Our Girls Have 1920 Chances to

Professor d. r. McAnally, in the
March Ladies Home Journal. has a
most interesting article on 1.-The Amer
lean Girls Chances of Marriage" In
a carefully compiled paper he shows
how age affects the American girls
chances. how they are affected by bust
ness conditions and war, in which
States her chances are best, il which
worst, the influence of education on
matrimony, marriages in the country,
etc. This writer asserts that the Amer
lean girls chances of securing a hns
ba nd are considerably better than the
Eu ropean girls for the reason that
there are but 965 women to every 1000
men in the United States, while in the
countries of the old world there are
more women thansmen.

The West Jersey Press says: 1t is
suggested that in lieu of the game laws,
which are every year becoming more
complex, each farmer or land owner be
constituted a game warden for his own
premises, with all the necessary powers
appurtenant thereto. In this. way tie
men most vitality concerned would be
vested with full authority to police
their premises, and the chances are that
the work would be better and more
cheaply done than is the case at present.
