statute. One very great advantage will be
the uniformity which it will introduce,
not only in the methods of procedure, but
in the times when taxes are to be levied
and collected and when they are to become
and remain liens and all such matters
which have heretofore been SO confusing
and doubtful. Almost every city and
town has been working under a special
charter and there have been almost as
many rules and dates as there have been
charters. In the transmission of land
titles every lawyer knows that the differ
ences and doubts as to dates Of tax liens
raises many disagreeable question when
title is passed. All this ought to be
avoided under the new law, and with the
admirable provisions bringing the munich
pal taxing system into harmony with the
State Board of Taxation the whole taxing
system Of the State ought to work much
more smoothly than heretofore and to give
much less cause for complaint. The uni
formity secured will undoubtedly tend
toward more uniform valuations and will
make it easier for equalization to be made
as between taxing districts, some Of which
have been in the habit Of trying to be too
smart for their neighbors. If the Legisla-
ture will leave the law alone for a few
years it will almost inevitably, under the
wise direction of the State Board Of Taxa
ton, work out very beneficial results.

Mr.. William O. Mcdowell, of New York,
president of the Cuban-American League,
was asked at the close of one of his lee
lures, "What is the correct conception of
democracy ?p he replied: at is an as
piration "a determined purpose hoping
for, struggling for, fighting to the death
for, Liberty-the equal well-being of all
men. 1t is a religion built upon creed
that asserts the natural dignity and birth
right equality of all men. 1t is the Golden
Rule, the Ten Commandments, the Sermon
on the Mount, and the American Declare
ton expressed in single word" The
work democracy" it will be seen, has a
meaning deep and broad. 1t is derived
from the Greek and means the rule of the
people, and the rule of the people, resting
as it does upon the doctrines set forth in
the Declaration of Independence, can only
be preserved by the cultivation of pro-
found and universal respect for human
rights. Both aristocracy and plutocracy
are constantly at war with democracy, and
the democrat must be not only vigilant
and active, but he must know that his own
security rests upon the protection of the
equal rights Of all.

Editor Leonard, of the Paulsboro Press,
is a queer combination. From a persistent
Prosperity shouter he has lately developed
about the worst case of calamity this county
has ever known, and its all occurred since
the annual meeting of the Board of Chosen
Freeholders. The Board appropriated $780,
600 at the annual meeting of 1902, and
everybody knew the appropriation this year
wouldn't be any less, but there was no
bugle call to economy until the 800, ZOO
was appropriated and the newspapers
selected to publish the Collectors state
ment.
Editor Leonard is enough Of a Republican
to know that sermons on economy are
wasted on Republican Freeholders, because
they don't know how to exercise economy
when it comes to public expenditures.
During the past few weeks we haye
shown by the books that Mr.. Usinger, a
Democrat, is about the most economical
member of the Board and yet Mr. Leonard
withholds the need of praise due him.
A few years ago Democratic Board paid
the county bills with $4,000 yet Republi-
can papers like the Press found fault and
charged extravaganza. Let the Press urge
the election of Board of Freeholders Of
Mr. Usinger's economical characteristics,
and the dangers he sees will disappear
forever.

The taxpayers of West Deptford view
the repairs of the lower portion of Crown
Point road as now being done with much
disapproval and claim that the money ex-
pended is practically wasted. They assert
that the fine screenings with which the
road is being resurfaeed will be blown
away and prove only an annoyance to
h9usekeepers. They characterize these
screenings as waste product, of no road
making value, yet our county is expanding
ST. So per ton for it, or 81 90 per ton placed
on the road, while the best quality of
gravel could be placed thereon for 40c.
They draw a comparison between that
portion OF the Swedesboro turnpike be-
tween Woodbury. and Mt. Royal bridge,
which, during the rast year has been i'm
proved with about 200 loads of gravel, and
is in better condition than any of the
county stone roads.
We have had our attention called to the

Company resurfaces their road as compared

smooth, hard surface is formed. No ston'

advantage of the experience of others when
