JERSEY JUSTICE" has again become q
subject Of laudation in. the satisfactory
termination of the murder trial in Pater-
son. A trial of utmost importance, not
only to the used, but to society at large,
it was started promptly and completed
within five days. The verdict is guilty of
murder in the second degree, another il
Illustration of Jersey Justice for there
was no prejudice, no return of verdict
that would not be sustained by the evi-
dence. That the men richly deserved
hanging there is no doubt, but the facts
brought out by the trial show conclusive
ly that to have had that punishment melted
out to them would have been injustice, at
least SO far as the law is concerned They
may be thankful they can live, and should
make use of the time they will be given in
the state prison, to reflect upon the man
ner in which they have wasted their lives,
and repent the sin committed, and the sor-
row and shame inflicted upon more than
one family. From the time this crime
was made public, there has been wide
spread interest over the result. The re-
spectability of the criminals, the influence
they could bring to bear in their own be-
half, led to an apprehension that the
dead girl would go unavenged. This
was not the case, and it has been demon
strated that trial by jury is not, in this
instance, at least, farce.

SENATOR Stokes is at work on his bill to
relieve the tax payers of some of their
school taxes. He now believes that 800,
900 can be appropriated from the State
funds for that purpose. This would mean
that reduction could be made of 10 cents
on every 800 to every taxpayer in the
State on school taxes. The Cumberland
Senator also has a scheme for protecting
the forests of the State from ravages of fire.
He proposes to give township committees
power to appoint fire wardens. and to have
the State appropriate as much for their
work as the township may do. Senator
Stokes says that the preservation of the
forests is most important matter, not
alone from the great damage by fire but
from the water-supply point of view.
The Mount Holly news. [volume] (Mount Holly, Burlington Co., N.J.) 1891-1942, 1901-01-22

THE fact that New Jersey stands in need
of better tax laws is as freely admitted as
is the fact that the present laws would
meet nearly all necessary requirements if
they were fully enforced. The complaint
against the tax laws is as common as dirt
and as constant. They have been amended
again and again by intelligent Legislatures,
but the most covered complaint remains.
But if the demand for the enforcement of
these laws was as continuous and persist
ent as the attacks upon the statutes them
selves, the issue of equal taxation would be
solved, and there would be little reason
for discussing or agitating it. If thelaws
ARE not altered very great benefit could
be conferred if somebody would make a
compilation of them that would render
them easy of access and understanding.
As they now are it requires search and
study to discover some little point, and
when the work is all done, apparently sat
isfactorily, it is suddenly discovered that
there was an amendment or a ruling over
looked that knocks the entire work out
# the laws were all put together in com
prehensive form it would be appreciated by
all who are required to study what is now
somewhat of Chinese puzzle.

TUESDAY, JANUARY %, 1901.

THERE is rumor that Senator Stokes,
of Cumberland county, may succeed Lewis
A. Thompson as Clerk in Chancery. whose
term expires in short time 1t is to be
hoped this rumor may become a reality.
There are many people in this state who
think there is nothing too good for Senator
Stokes, even the Gubernatorial chair, and
there are lots of voters in New Jersey who
hope to see the day when they may
cast vote for the Senator for that posi-
ton. He is a young man, and with his
past record, in which the interest and well
fare of the people haye.been uppermost, he
is certain to reap reward to which he is
justly entitled.
