ready to hang up to dry or to smoke
when it should be wiped off.

The Low Tariff Revival.



Reciprocity, in the long run, means
simply a letting down OF the tariff bars,
and if the sentiment of the country is in
favor OF it steps will be taken in the
House OF Representatives to accomplish
by a short cut what the treaties would do
in a more roundabout way, The tariff
question has been in allegiance for a few
years, but it is now brought well to the
front again. Since it was last discussed,
many new arguments have appeared in
the field. The trusts have materially
modified the position OF the manufactur-
ers; a great increase of foreign trade has
shown us what we can do in foreign
markets; some leading Republicans have
come around to the idea that an income
tax is not without good features, and the
West has shown symptoms OF revival of
low tariff ideas, 1t is not to be inferred
that there is any great drift toward free
trade; but extreme high tariff views are
not nearly so much in evidence as they
were ten years ago.

ia lie September meeting OF the Board OF
Chosen Freeholders was held at the Court
House on Wednesday. The Board nego-
tiated a loan with the City National
Bank for $1,000 for four months, a greater
part Of the money being required to re-
pair the bridges OF the county damaged
by the August freshet. The heaviest bills
were from Nloway Township and
amounted to 5000. Freebooter Ayres
stated that that was not half the damages
to that Township, Altogether that storm
will cost Salem county $4,000.

tract for furnishing coal for the county
buildings at 1915 per ton. The Board
appropriated $50 to the Chief OF Police Of

We're opened and the committee recon-
mended that B. F. Sweeten & Son, OF

meeting will be held.
Because OF the great expense caused
by the August freshet and expense to
build the state road between Pennsville

ing next week is to feel the sentiment of
the taxpayers and have the building Of
the road put off until next year.

The announcement in last Saturday
mornings papers that President William
Mckinley died that morning at 2.l5 was
nearly as great a surprise as the announce
ment a week previous that he had been
shot. because the doctors had announced
his wounds as not dangerous, for five
DAYS, although the news in Fridays pa
pers was that he was not 50 well. The
fatal result of the assassin's bullet, hred
by a violent anarchist of no repute, puts
a nall over all the nation, and causes the
whole world to mourn, not only because
the shooting was a crime against human
itv and society, but because it was a high
crime against all organized government.
President Mckinley was shot not be-
cause he had done any act to arouse per
sonal or political luminosity, but solely
because he ""S 'eS'"''''' ~ ~
