The Lentz- Gibson fight in Essex
county has been fought and won
by Major Lentz. If Mr. Gibson
thought Major Lentz was a back
number he has found himself mis-
taken, for the Major overwhelming

jor Lentz as a candidate for sheriff
and Major Lentz as candidate for
chairman OF the county committee
are evidently two very different
propositions, and the Republicans of
Essex county showed very conclu-
sively that they do not desire any
change in the management of par
ty affairs just at present.

The special election for the adop-
ton or rejection of the proposed
amendments is drawing near. 1t
will be held one week from Tues
day next, and while it may seem of
no consequence to you, you should
not let it go by default. Those
who oppose it, if any there be, will
do their best to defeat it and will
be out in full force. If you think
it good thing, and you are assured
that it is by the best legal minds
in the State, you should come out
and vote for it. 1t certainly affords
some relief to our courts and has
no bad features. 1t may be that it
might be improved upon and proba-
bly, could be, but that is no reason
why we SHOULD not adopt them as
they are. They are a step in the
right direction.

1t may be of some interest to our
township committees throughout
the county to know that there is in
this State law which compels each
township committee to erect and
maintain in their several townships
sign-posts at each and every cross
road The sign-posts throughout
this county are more conspicuous
through their absence than by
their presence. 1t may also be of
interest to know that there is a fine
of SIS prescribed for each failure to
maintain these sign-posts. Some
twenty odd years ago sign posts
were put up at every crossroad III
the county. Since first putting
them in position, with the excep-
ton of a few isolated cases, there
has been nothing done with them
whatever, and in many places they
have rotted away and nothing re-
mains to mark the spot where they
once stood.

There seems to be a great lack of
energy in the Democratic party
both in this county and throughout
the country generally. To be sure
there is mighty little for them to
enthuse over and nothing to stir up
any energetic action on their part
In the coming election their chances
of success are practically nil and
the Republican ticket will without
doubt be elected. From the pres
ent outlook it only seems to be a
question of how big majority it
will have.

The trading stamp must go. At
least the business men of Newark
and also of Orange have said SO and
in both cities they have organized
themselves to fight it. Just as soon
as the use of trading stamps became
universal, just SO soon they became
useless as drawer of trade. When
they ceased to draw trade they be-
came useless to the merchant, and
the result is that concerted effort
is being made to get rid of them,
Nearly year ago New Brunswick
started the movement and it is
gradually spreading and will doubt
less reach even Morristown. The
sooner the better.

Had q Practical Proof.

Early In the sixteenth century the
natives of Porto Rico plotted to kill
the Spaniards on the island. There
was much doubt. however, Ito
whether or not 1t was possible to kill
a .Spaniard. Many Of the natives in
sisted that it was not. Finally it was
decided to- make an experiment. A
young Spaniards who was passing
through the Indian village was hos.
pitably received and fed and then a
number Of natives accompanied him
on his journey. When he arrived at a
river his companions offered to carry
him across. The young man accepted
and was taken up by two men and car
ried into the water on their shoulders.
Arriving near the middle Of the river
they threw him in and held him down
until he ceased to struggle. Then they
carried him ashore with profuse apollo
gies, loudly proclaiming that they
stumbled by accident and calling upon
him to arise and continue his journey.
But the young man did not move and
finally the natives were convinced that
he was actually dead. Having secured
the proof they wanted the leaders of
the rebellion at once began general
attack upon the Spaniards

Art of Pleasing.

The art of pleasing consists in MAX
ing our daily lives agreeable to others
as we'll as to ourselves, says the Cath
olic Mirror. To throw a grain Of !!le
idea and of poetry into our surround
ings is to make them less commonplac &C
and more congenial. If woman has
the tact of making others comfortable
then she is endowed with the gift Of
making life happy. The gracious wom-
an shines through collection of beau.
tiful qualities. She not only pleases
the eye by her outward air Of fresh.
ness and health, but she charms the
mind by a characteristic worth. The
cultivation of the physical or the body,
produces the bloom of health; but quite
as necessary in making woman beau
tiful is the cultivation of the intellect,
which gives her the inimitable attrac-
ton of knowledge Then there Is the
cultivation of the heart, which. gives
her those gentle graces which are to
her what the perfume is to the flower;

friend inquired how he could be so
cheerful under such circumstances.
"My secret" replied the old bishop,
consists in nothing more than making
right use Of my eyes" His friend
asked him to explain, and the bishop
did so rs follows: "In whatever state
I am, first of all I look up to Heaven,
