Our democratic cotemporafies in
this county appear TO be rejoicing and
are certainly endeayoring TO make
capital out of certain alleged strike
and reduction of wages in the IRON
business in the northern part of tins
State. They forget to mention the
fact that four years ago there were
neither strike nor reduction ef wages
for the simple reason TINT there was no
business whatever Mt these places. If
they are candid, however, they Will
admit that business conditions there
as well as elsewhere ARE better than
they were and if anything can be nc
complished by four years expert
ment, they ought to be willing TO
have it tried little longer.

TRYING TO EXCUSE THEMSELVES

MIR. EDITOR. y writer III the issue
of the Beacon of week before last i.
seems ia be apologi2ing for the increase
of the tux rate by om present Demo
cratic Council OF course, the writer
of that article IL not the editor of the
paper, because II is we'll known that he
conducts strictly non partisan paperl
And while there Is no reason that we
know of why II Democratic administra-
ton of local affairs should not be Just
as good as that OF any other party, yet
experience in Lambertyille has certain
~ been unfortunate.
The fact seems to be that since the
Democratic party have again assumed
control of every department OF the city,
our tax was first increased to 81 ID and
now we are told 1t il to be 81 80, and
have we REALLY anything to show for it ?
True, our expenses on school improve
ment hive been heavy during the year,
and we have paid for ten months IN
structlon while our children have re
ceived only eight, and while II may he
merely a coincidence, we believe il is
fact that the contractors for the work
happened to he members of the Demo
cratic PARTY aud were under contract
TO hive the building completed by n
specified time 1t was not done, and We
have not vet heard of any penalty be
ing imposed for any such failure.
We have had new electric light
placed on the corner occupied by
prominent member of the present conn
ell We understand Goat Hill Road is
better lighted than it used To he, and
we have new electric light on School
House Hill. Ne doubt the people in
these immediate yicinities are better
satisfied with the lighting, but 10 the
average citizen it will probably APP
pear that the town is not much better
accommodated with lighting facilities.
As 10 the street Improvement, there
is a question as to whether more work
was done during the past two years
lluH ever btibit. AtcoiulHB 10 lHt
writer's recollection, abont an equal
amount of new macadam was laid by
the former Republican Council, aud as
to the repair and Improvement of the
old streets, it would be we'll for the en-
thusiastic writer in the Beac0n to look
at the main street of our city which
waa coated with something that ls dust
in dry weather and mud in wet weather,
and will all have to be scraped off next
Spring. Aud as TO other streets, we
would like some one to candidly say
whether they are in as good or better
condition than when looked after by a
Republican Council.
Understand, | am making no charges
and want TO give every efficient city
officer his Just dues, aud am finding
| fault with none Of them; but when they
commence to boast about their achieve
ment in order to make an apology for
their increased tax rate, they ought to
| be very careful. The gentlemen oc-
/ chpNlup piltihi poSIlloHS may bf very
efficient, they certainly have performed
| their duties much better than some for
mer officers of their own party, but
have they done any better than their
predecessors who happened to be OF
the other party? Certainly, the tax
rate has been going up. Are we to ex-
pect il to be continued in that direction

PUT MEN TO SHAME.
Young Woman Jumps from Trestls
to River and Saves Little Girl
While Timid Men Look On.

IF that child is to be saved, some one
must jump after her, and quickly"
Not man was brave enough to accept
the challenge. Miss Lizzie Evans, the.
speaker, hesitated only long enough
to make sure that If the child was to be
saved she must save her. Then the girl
sprang from q trolley car into the Del
aware river near Camden, N. j., seized
Ethel Frazer, who was drowning, and
kept the girls head above water until
both were rescued.
Miss Evans was on an open car. At
the end of the seat before her sat
Ethel Frazer, six years old, and next to
Ethel her mother. AS the car was
whizzing over a trestle Ethel leaned
far out. The car jolted; the child was
pitched into the river.
Mrs. Frazer, shrieking, jumped to her
feet. The car was stopped. The child
arose, helplessly striking out her little
arms. Some men on the car rushed to
the rear platform. and, cutting, the rope
of the trolley pole, threw the rope to
the little one. The child sank again.
Then came the cry of Miss Evans,
who was poised on the running board
on the side of the car. She waited an
instant. Taking off fine new hat she
wore. she deliberately put it on the car
seat and then jumped.
Miss Evans is a good swimmer. "A
few strong strokes and she grabbed
little Ethel as the child reappeared
Two men ashore, alarmed by the shouts
of those on the car, had jumped into
boat and were pulling with all their
might toward the struggling girl
These men, arriving most OPPORTUNITY.
quickly drew Miss Evans and little
Ethel into the boat. They were rowed
ashore. B,
When Ethel's mother reached them
she first embraced her daughter and
then Rugged the dripping Miss Evans.
"Not q word" said that plucky young
woman. "Only too glad. The little
ones all right now, isn't she o.
Then Miss Evans turned to her friends
and coolly asked:
Where's my hat?''
