VAooINATIoN's defenders and opponents
have been given good chance to discuss
the entire matter during the past week.
owing to two circumstances which have
kept the subject prominently before the
public. The reports of lockjaw supposed
to have been caused by vaccination have
made some persons timid about having
the operation performed. But those who
have carefully considered this part OF the
subject find that the cases of reported lock-
Jaw have mainly come from one locality
and in proportion to the number OF vac
cinations in that city, regardless OF the
entire country, are but drop in the
bucket, and the cause for their existence
has been shown to be carelessness on the
part of some one The other point for
discussion was the suit in Philadelphia OF
a teacher who had been ordered by the
Board of Education to be vaccinated and
on her refusal to comply with this order.
was dismissed from her position She
prayed for an injunction to prevent tne
Board of Education from Diminishing her.

AN ENTIRELY new situation was revealed
to the taxpayers of this county on Tues
day, when John E. Darnell, Director of
the Board of Freeholders, announced his
intention of refusing to advertise for bids
for stone roads beyond the amount of the
appropriation made at the May meeting.
In addition to its novelty the stand of Di-
rector Darnell is decidedly refreshing and
. leads to the imp ession that some of the
county fathers are awakening to the re-
sponsibility that is supposed to rest upon
them. The arguments advanced by Mr..
Darnell are sound. He claims the Board
has no right to saddle upon the incoming
body contracts for them to honor and for
which they must appropriate money. This
is correct. If the present Board of Free
holders can resolve to spend money to be
appropriated by its successor for stone
roads, what is to prevent it from making
contracts for anything in view2 The
stone road act specifically provides that a
Board shall not make contracts pro-
vldlng for the expenditure IN any one
year of more than a certain percent
age of the taxables of the county-one-
quarter of one per cent, if we remember
correctly. The minute this figure is ex-
ceeded the members approving such &C
ton are liable to punishment. Having
spent all the law allows in one year, the
members must rest until the new organ
ization takes hold and arrange their plans
for that year. 1t is time that somebody
should wake up and become acquainted
with the law on county government, and
having been enlightened to act according
ly. Director Darnell pursued the proper
course when he announced his intention
of attempting to keep matters within
legal bounds.

WITH the new school law declared I'M
constitutional one may well ask what acts
may be relied upon as all right. No
statute was prepared and enacted with
more care than the school law. Plenty of
time was taken in framing it, and counsel
OF the ablest lawyers in the state was Sc
cured. After it had received their stamp
of approval and after the Attorney
General expressed an opinion favorable to
its constitutionality the law was put upon
the books, and now the courts have come
in and set it aside. The reverse acts main
ly upon the school system of cities as there
was little material change in the law af-
fecting townships. The next legislature
will be asked to remedy the defect.

The condition of ex-County Clerk Park
er is very serious, and he is gradually
growing worse.
Col. John l. Shinn, of the Third Regi-
ment, National Guard of New Jersey, is
quite i'll at his home in this city, the re-
suit of having scratched pimple on his
head. Colonel Shinn treated the matte r
indifferently at the time, but in few
days local blood poisoning developed, and
he became so i'll that he had to take to his
bed.
A novel case was tried here Friday be-
fore three arbitrators, the result being the
awarding of 81, 1854 II to Benjamin Atkin-
son for the use of a horse Some fourteen
years ago the late DR.. Frankli n Gauntt
hired horse from Benjamin Atkinso n,
agreeing to pay him 81 day for the use
of the animal. When the docto or died and
the estate was being closed Atkinson filed
claim for about $4,000 A number of set
offs were allowed the estate for medical
attendance and rent of lot when the final
balance, as stated, was allowed Atkinson.
The horse, which is now in Atkinson's
possession, is still in good condition.
The decision of the Supreme Court de-
claring unconstitutional the excise law Of
1892 has sent shivers up and down the
backs of the saloonkeepers in this city.
The Excise Board here is organized under
that law and as result the licenses here
are held to be void. This causes the
license question to be thrown back into
the hands of the Common Council, and
makes general mixup among the liquor
men. The week began with lecture
from Mayor Flanders in regard to Sunday
selling, and now crowding so close on to
the lecture comes this decision of the
Supreme Court, so that there is fear of g
dry spell'' in this city.

This the court, on Thursday, refused to
do. Judge Arnold, in giving the opinion,
said Board of Education had the right
to exclude pupils who had not been vac
cinated and for the same reason might
suspend or dismiss teachers. Both were
liable to the same danger of contracting
the disease. Whether vaccination is a
preventive of small pox the court had nc
power to investigate and decide The
laws of the state require vaccination and
the opinion of teacher that vaccination
is not preventive is not sufficient to ex
empt her from obedience to the law of the
state and the rule of the Board which
employs her. The law applicable in this
case is the ordinary law of master ant
servant If the latter disobeys reasonable
orders dismissal is in order.

A MAN in the upper part of New
Jersey had trouble with a lawyer last
week and proceeded to put the legal gen.
tleman out of the way. He got a gun
and pointed it at his intended victim, but
the latter escaped being shot and had his
assailant arrested. The latter should
make application to have his trial occur
in Burlington county. If he could get a
jury to recommend him to mercy he
would come out all right.
Nor little indignation was caused by
the light sentence imposed on Thomas
Carey by Burlington county judge last
week and our citizens have been ex-
pressing themselves in way not at all
complimentary to the Court. 1t seems al
most beyond belief that a man who has
been the terror of the neighborhood for
years, and who assaults citizens and
officers with impunity, should escape with
a paltry fine OF $25 without costs. What
protection have our law-abiding citizens,
when drunken men are allowed to assault
them without fear of punishment p

GAME IN THE SOUTH.
Unusually Abundant This Year. Choice
Spots For The Hunter,

"There is more game of every kind in
the south this year than there has been in
decade" is the interesting statement made
by Chas L. Hopkins, Philadelphia, Dis
trict Passenger Agent of the Southern
Railway, who speaks not only with the
personal knowledge of hunter, but after
most careful and honest inquiry in the
subject before him. Continuing Mr.. Hop,
kins said:
Il am confident that this will be proven
by those who go there to hunt. Naturally,
my knowledge of the matter concerns
most directly the territory traversed or
reached by the Southern Railway, but in
asmuch as this covers practically the en-
tire Southern sporting county, can safely
say throughout the South.
For several weeks 1 have been in cor
respondence with gentlemen in nearly
every hamlet, town and city along our
lines and my request has always been for
an opinion on the conditions formed after
carefully observing the situation. 1 can
say that in every case the reports tell of an
abundance of game, nearly every cores
pondent reporting more than for many
years, and some more than they knew OF
before
