The attorney generals Office recent
ly opinioned that the registration law
passed by the last legislature applied
to the whole state. This brought the
administration up against it, for it
would force registration all over the
state, make lot of expense and raise
sheol generally. A council OF war was
hastily called and the attorney gener-
ais Office called on the carpet. The
office was equal to the occasion and,
after carefully adjusting its dream
cap and tieing the string firmly under
its apology for chin. dreamed again
and evolved the theory that the law
only applied to two counties. Then
all smiled and said 81 told you So -
This of course means that the law will
be dead letter and that matterrs will

There is to be meeting of Kansas
grain growers at Salina the 10th of
next month for the purpose of organ
izing cooperative elevators and ship
ping stations all over this state. This
is movement of the Farmers State
Federation and is entirely non-politi-
cal. The secretary of the state assO-
citation has issued an address calling
on the township trustees to take the
matter up where there is no federati on
and see to it that delegates are sent TO
this meeting. This matter has been
worked cut 70 a successful solution in
Iowa and he thinks it can be here.
He says that the individual grain buy
er is being forced out of business by
the combines, and that farmers can
hardly expect protection unless they
furnish it themselves. He recommends
Saturday, May ii, for holding meet
ings to elect delegates. a Farmers s
Federation should be formed in every
county. not only in the grain growers
interest, but for the general protection
of farmers. Every other industry is
organizing for protection and why not
the producer.

Ohio, Indiana, and the system is
growing in public favor as it is be-
coming understood Following are
the principal arguments for centraliz-
alton:
1. There are enough pupils to form
goou, strong classes. thoroughly grad
ed as they are advanced, which is i'm
possible in the average district school.
2. Better results will be secured
for less money. There will be one
building to heat and keep up instead
of eight or ten.
3. With a central graded school
with high school course, all the
children of the township have the ben
eft of higher educational advantages
at home without going to the city for
them.
4. It will solve the problem of how
to keep the boys on the farm. We
thus bring to the farm that for which
boy goes to the city or town: The
schOOlhouse with its library and read
ing room will become the social and
intellectual center of the community.
OF course there are sections of the
country where consolidation is i'm
possible. In many localities in west
ern states it will be impracticable for
several years at least. But there
are many communities, even in this
county, where it could be ad opted with
advantage. In concluding we can do
no better than quote from the author
ity before mentioned: ''Justly we
have prided ourselves in the past on
the district school. Changing condi-
tions of life, the demands of higher
civilization demand the evolution of
district school, the peoples college,
to the central graded school, the peo-
ple's university. 1t must come. Think
ing people who oppose such an evolu-
tion admit that it will come in few
years. But why delay it?''

HONOR TO WHOM HONOR is
DUE.

The graceful act of Mayor Fox in
displaying the city flag at half mast
on the day of Queen Victoria's funeral
meets with che general approval of
our citizens, many of whom displayed
flags on their private residences. The
cordial recognition of the Queen s
greatness and the respect shown to
the sorrow of friendly nation does
not in any way imply a belief in
monarchy, or lack of patriotism, as
may readily be seen from the fact
that among the flags halfmasted was
that of the Washington Association
of New Jersey, society which GER
tainly cannot be suspected of Anglo
mania
The national recognition of Vic
toria's death was not at all out of
proportion to what was seemly in
the circumstances. 1t was only fitting
that the United States should pay a
proper tribute of regard to the memory
of sovereign, who put her court in
mourning for the death of President
Garfield.

OBSCENE POSTERS.

Plaintield's crusade against obscene
show bills is recalled by the similar
trouble in the city of Elizabeth.
Through the vigorous efforts of Chief
of Police Tenny, all the bills advertis-
ing theatrical performance have
been torn down from the boards and
removed from store windows, on the
ground of immortality. AS Acting
Mayor Ryan is fully in accord with
the police in the matter, the show
people have no redress. Elizabeth is
taking the surest way OF. treating such
things going right at them, without
waiting to hear the public argue the
case. The Judgment of an official is
enough in such case
Some of the bills rece tly displayed
as an advertising medium in Morris
town certainly deserve the same fate.

REINFORCEMENT.

In accordance with the recommen-
dation made by the committee that
revised the school laws last year, a
bill will shortly be introduced into
the Legislature providing for new
plan of apportioning the State school
fund.
At present the plan is to pay GER
tain amount for each teacher and the
remaining money is apportioned on
the basis of the school census. This
plan does n OF work fairly because in
some places the census has been pad
ded and even if the census were hon.
est this method is not based on sound
principle. The amount received by
each district should be proportional,
not to the number of children living
there but to the number actually at
tending school. That is not only a
fair way of apportioning the State
money but it will act as an incentive
to school boards and tax payers to Sc
cure the regular attendance of every
child in their school district. 1t will
thus make the compulsory law effec-
tive, whereas at present it is in
many places dead letter. AS will be
seen from the table published else
where the difference this plan would
make in the amount of money received
i'll Morristown is tr.tling and might be
more than made up by moderate en-
forcement of the compulsory law, and
this applies to the whole of Morris
County.
The address on this subject by j..
Brognard Belts, Deputy State School
superintendent, which we publish else
where is worthy of the careful atten-
tion of all our readers. Mr.. Belts
speaks with thorough and compre-
hensive knowledge of all matters re-
lating to the public schools of New
Jersey.

The experience of the Health and
Police officials in Madison in conneo-

warning to the authorities of the
municipalities throughout the state
who are prone to exceed their powers
in the least emergency. The Madi-
son Health B oard established quar-
antine and attempted to prevent any
person from Morristown entering the
Borough limits. A Morristown grocer
entered Madison after the establish
ment of the quarantine to deliver or
der to a number of customers and was
propmtly arrested, After his release
suit was entered against the Board of
Health representatives and they were
obliged to pay him $3.50 to compromise
the case. Summit Record.
