The Stone load Question.

One of the arguments advanced by
the stone road promoters as reason
why large sums of money should be
expended in the building of roads at
this time is, that with these roads city
people would locate in onr county. If
| this be true at all, to what extent is it
true? viii they buy farms off from
| the main lines Of the rail roads? Is
it not fact that by far the larger
portion of our county is too far from
the great cities to induce wealthy
business men to locate here? Is it
true that farm lands would increase
III value to any great extent, especially
those lands remote from the line of
the roads? Will not any increase in
the value of the lands be eaten up
by the increase of taxes necessi-
tated by the building Of the roads?
| 1t should be remembered that
farmers remote from the roads will
have to pay just as much in taxes as
those who would be benefited by
them. Hunterdon is n county Of long
distances and there are many miles of
road, and the most credulous can
hardly believe that one quarter of the
roads can be improved under the
State aid plan in the present century.
The little township of West Amwell
has about 70 miles of road and prob
ably Delaware township has $50 to 100
miles, 30 that probably there are from
1900 to 1900 miles in the county.
Now supposing we should follow the
lead Of Morris county and Issue bonds
for 800, 900. TO begin with, this
would pay the county's share ON 100
miles of road if proper economy was
used in construction. Probably the
fees and costs outside of building the
road bed would reduce the above
calculation at least five miles) This
estimate places the cost of the road at
$4,000 per mile, which probably is less
than the roads can be built for where
much grading has to be done.
When the roads are completed the
situation will be about as follows:
Interest on bonds at per cent. would
be SEQ, 900 per year; cost of maintain.
ting 100 miles of road at 800 per mile,
$l2, 900, making $32, 900 per year rs
road taxes, and the good work scarcely
begun. In addition to this, $400 600
will be released from taxation.
When man has money to invest in
property or to loan on mortgage,
about the first question he will ask is
what is your tax rate?" evidently not
believing that public debt is pub
lie blessing.
Those townships through which |
these roads pass will be relieved of |
their road tax for the miles of road |
built; the townships having no roads |
will have not only to keep mp their |
own roads, but will be taxed to keep |
up the roads of which certain town
ships will be relieved. This il mani
testify unfair, and for this reason if |
the county is to have charge of any of
the roads they should have charge
of all; to tho end that all may pay
their Just share of the road tax. 1t
would be equally fair and much
cheaper for the county Mt large for
those townships through which the
stone roads pass to pay the 800 per
mile tax for repairs as they are the
parties especially benefited by the
roads. -. |

when n Man Can See 200 Mile.

About 200 miles In every direction Is
the distance man can see when stand
ing, on a clear day, ON the peak of the
highest mountain-say, at Il height OF
2066S feet, or little over five miles
above the level of the sea. An observer
must be Mt Il height of 6,66T feet above
sea level TO see objects at a distance OF
100 miles. Tho distance In miles al
which an object upon the surface OF
the earth is visible is equal to the
square root OF one and IA half times the
height of the observer in feet above the
sea level.
Some allowance has 10 be made fol
the effect of atmospheric refraction
but as the refraction varies ut differ
ent heights and is affected by the vari
Gus states OF the weather no precisely
accurate figures for general purposes
can be given. Probably one-fourteenta
to one-tenth of the distance given 10y
the formula would have TO be deducted
owing to the refraction OF the atmos
phere.

dive into tank of water from height
of fifty feet, and feats of equal daring
have been secured.
But for the special Monday bill, in
addition to sixteen vaudeville acts,
there has been arranged a big pro

Last Thursday afternoon the body
fsPresident Mckinley was placed in
a receiving vault i'll Canton, Ohio,
with simple and impressive ceremon-
les, and while this local service was
being carried out, all over the world
services were being held in honor of
the dead President.
Lambertyille did its full share in
paying respect to the Presidents
obsequies. At3 p. NJ. union ser
vice was held i'll the First Baptist
church. The service drew out one of
the largest crowds ever seen in our
city. The edifice was crowded,
the aisles, vestibule and gallery being
packed. Over thousand people were
in the building and n large number
were unable to gain access to the set-
vice
An excellent choir, composed of the
members of various churches, and a
fine orchestra, furnished the musical
part of the exercises.
Addresses were made by Rev. II. A.
MacKubbin, of the Presbyterian
Church; Rev. g. s. Lawrence, of the
Methodist Church, and Rev. DIR. Cor
do, Of the First Baptist Church.
These addresses were able and appro-
PIRATE, and were listened to most
closely by the great audience present
Everyone seemed to give evidence of
fee'ing and personal loss in the death
of the President, and there was
nothing perfunctory in the observance
of the day.
At the close of the exercises in the
church, the bells of the churches and
of the Fleet Wing II. & H. Go. were
tolled for fifteen minutes.
All the shops. stores, hotels, Sc
gar stores and soloons, with very few
exceptions, were closed duaing the af-
ternoon and many were closed all day. |

For the Children's Sake.

Frauds in medicine often take the
form of murder. In other words,
time honored remedies of specific
curative powers are basely initiated :,
made to look and taste like the genu-
inc prescription, but entirely lacking
iii those ingredients necessary to save
precious lives, for which the renl
article was discovered and prescribed
by physician of world wide eminence
in the field of therapeutics. One of
the most gigantic frauds of this
character perpetrated in this country
is the imitation of "Castoria, which
imitation is absolutely yalueless for
medicinal purposes and exceedingly
dangerous in other respects since it
fails to accomplish what it was purch-
ased for, and Mt tho same time it pre-
vents the use of other remedies owing
users in the real "Castoria, which
they believe they are using. The
principal victims are poor little
children, and the crime of making
money fraudulently is increased II
thousand fold since innocent lives are
the price of the gain.
Anyone capable of taking great
household remedy like "Castoria"
and fraudulently substituting under
its name spurious compound is de
serving of drastic punishment. Such
an act inficts an injury on the public
at large and imperils lives that would
otherwise have the safeguard of the
Legitimate prescription, 1t is almost
impossible for proprietors of standard
medicines to prevent spurious imita-
tons from getting into the market
The law on this subject, however, has
become so strict that henceforth the
facsimile signature of Ghas. II. Fletch-
er on "Castoria" wrappers and
labels will, fortunately for the public,
be sufficient guarantee that the con
tents are genuine.
