NEW JERSEY voters should not be al
lowed to forget that Franklin Murphy as
Governor will be no mans puppet. He
has always owned himself, and the person
who told him that he had to do or refrain
from doing this, that or the other thing
would have an uncomfortable time of it
while listening to Mr.. Murphy's answer.
If he becomes Governor-and all the in
dications are extremely hopeful-he will
take the oath of Office unhampered by
pledges or obligations other than those
imposed by his conscience. Although he
has for years devoted large part of his
spare time to politics, he still retains that
good, old fashioned idea that man s
word should be as sacred in relation to
things political as to matters of business
or personal affairs. If every voter had
the opportunity of knowing Franklin
Murphy as he is known to all who have
had any dealings with the man, it would
be the easiest task in the world to predict
with accuracy majority SO overwhelm
ing as to break all records. That beng
impossible, it behooves his friends, neigh
bors and acquaintance to testify for him.
He is not given to horn blowing; he is no
staggering egotist, and it is doubtful if
he could be induced to play the dema-
gogue even if the Presidency of the
United States were his for the doing Of it.
He is the kind of man who wears well
and who is able to look other men in the
eye, or at his own reflection in the mirror,
without fear of reprosch or shame.-Neso
York Tribune.

State News,

William Hathaway, the Mayor of
Deal, and the original proprietor OF the
Hathaway Inn, died on Sunday, aged 70
years.
Charles Draper was sentenced to six
years in the state prison in the Salem
courts, on Saturday, for assault and bat
terry with intent to kill William Satter-
field.
The Democrats of Camden on Satur-
day nominated Joseph E. Nowrey for
Mayor; Frank W. Tussey for Recorder;
DR.. J. W. Donges for City Treasurer,
George D. Borton for Receiver of Taxes
and Charles C. Old, John R. Jackson and
George R. Williams for the Assembly.
Philip Conner, a noted counterfeiter,
now United States prisoner in the State
prison at Trenton, has made application to
Judge kirkpatrick to be sent to Sing Sing,
where he once served term. His application
sets out that he is accustomed to delicacies,
and that in Sing Sing he can get bananas,
bonbons, ice cream and other dainties
When arrested in this State at his home
at Rutherford SO, 900 of counterfeit notes
were found on the premises.
Rev. w. E. Hilton, pastor of the
Asbury African Methodist Episcopal
Church at Merchantville, appeared in Jus
tice Longstreth's court on Friday morn
ing as prosecutor against George Ander.
son, a member of his church. He accused
Anderson of using abusive language to-
wards him. Mr.. Hilton and Mr.. Anderson,
it appears, had some trouble in front of the
church ON the previous Sunday. Anderson,
according to the testimony, was the ag-
gressor, but it appears that after the ex-
citement cooled down Pastor Hilton chal-
lenged Mr. Anderson to fistic combat,
and in order to show that he meant bust
ness began diyesting himself of his cler :
ical garb. Members of the church inter
fered and averted futher trouble. Justice
Longstreth imposed fine of 81 80, which
Dir. Anderson paid, and was then released.

THE NEWBORN BABE.
wherein and why 1t Is More Help.
less Than a Young Brute.

less Than a Young Brute.
The newborn child is even inferior to
the lower animals of the same age N in
telligence and helpfuness. A young ape,
or, for that matter, young dog. Is far
better fitted for his immediate environ
ment than a week old infant But while
the latter struggles onward and upward
through helpless infancy and a weak
youth to the perfect man the former
never progresses beyond the perfect
brute. As Professor ]. w. Powell says:
EVERY child is born destitute of things
possessed in manhood which distinguish
him from the lower animals. OF all In
dustries he is artless, of all institutions
he is lawless, of all languages he Is
speeches., of all PHILOSOPHERS he Is opin-
ionless, of all reasoning he is thoughtless,
but arts, institutions, languages, opin-
Ions and mentations he acquires as the
years go by from childhood to manhood.
Elm all these respects the newborn
babe is hardly the peer of the newborn
beast, but as the years pass ever and
ever he exhibits his superiority In all of
the great classes of activities until the
distance by which he is separated from
the brute is SO great that his realm Of ex-
istence is another kingdom of nature"
Science is one great, unending question.
First, els this So" then, "Why is it so~
are the words forever on the tongues of
her votaries. And so we find Professor
Alexander Chamberlain in his book,
"The Child, Study In the Evolution of
Man." asking. "What Is the meaning of
the prolonged helDlessness of human In
fancyW He finds his answer in the fol-
lowing words of the late John Fiske, to
whom he frankly gives full ''credit for
the scientific Interpretation Of the pro-
longation of infancy"
1.-THE prolonged helplessness of the off
spring must keep the parents together for
longer and longer periods In successive
epochs, and when at last the association
is 30 long kept up that the older children
are growing mature while the younger
ones still need protection the family re-
lations begin to become permanent.
1.-THE parents have lived so long In COM
pany that to seek new companionships
involves some disturbance of ingrained
habits, and meanwhile the older sons are
more likely to continue their original as
ISOLATION than to establish associations
with strangers since they have common
objects to achieve and common enmities
bequeathed and acquired with neighbor-
ing families.
GAS the parent dies the headship Of the
family thus established devolves upon the
oldest or bravest or most sagacious male
remaining. Thus the little group grad
ually becomes clan, the members Of
which are united BY ties considerably
stronger than those which ally them to
members of adjacent clans, with whom
they may indeed combine to resist the
aggressions of yet further outlying clans
or of formidable beasts. but toward
whom their feelings are usually those of
hostile rivalry"-New York Journal.

A WORTHY SUCCESSOR.
Something New Under
The sum-

All Doctors have tried to cure CA
TARRH by the use of powders, acid gases,
inhalers and drugs in paste form. Theil
powders dry up the mucous membranes
causing them to crack open and bleed.
The powerful acids used in the inhalers
have entirely eaten away the same mem
branes that their makers have aimed to
cure, while pastes and ointments cannot
reach the disease. An old and experienced
practitioner who has for many years made
a close study and a speciality of the treat
ment of CATARRH, has at last perfected
Treatment which when faithfully used,
not only relieves at once, but permanently
cures CATARRH, by removing the cause,
stopping the discharges, and curing all
Inflammation. 1t is the only remedy
known to science that actually reached the
afflicted parts. This wonderful remedy is
known as "SNUFFLES the GUARAN-
TEED CATARRH CURE" and is sold at
the extremely low price of One Dollar,
each package containing internal and ex-
ternal medicine sufficient for full months
treatment and everything necessary to its
perfect use.
"SNUFFLES" is the only perfect CA
TARRH CURE ever made and is now rec
oginized as the only safe and positive cure
for that annoying and disgusting disease
1t cures all inflammation quickly and per
manently and is also wonderfully quick
to relieve HAY FEVER or COLD in the
HEAD.
CATARRH when neglected often leads
to OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES will
save you if you use it at once. 1t is no or
binary remedy, but complete treatment
which is positively guaranteed to cure
CATARRH in any form or stage if used
according to the directions which accom-
pany each package. Don't delay but
send for it at once, and write full particu
lars as to your condition, and you will re
ceive special advice from the discoverer Of
this wonderful remedy regarding YOU
