The reports of the banks of this
state show that deposits are accumu-
lating while would-be borrowers Of
money find it harder to secure loans
than formerly. The reason that
money holders are not anxious to
loan their funds at this time is I'M
doubtedly due to uncertainty of
upon the subject of
credits. Should the bill exempting
credits from taxation that has passed
the senate become a law the situa-
ton would be very much relieved.
If mortgages are to be taxed the
rate of interest will be raised or the
loaners of money will seek other
fields for investment.

immigration is largely directed to
western Canada this spring. That
country is having an extensive boom
to the detriment of the United
States. The great majority of the
immigrants to the Canadian north
west from the states, are the best
class of citizens a nation can have
intelligent tillers of the soil. Sixty
thousand people, farmers and their
families, have left the western states
and located in Canada within the
last three years. AS against these
we are getting dagos that can't
speak English and eat dirt. The
policy of this government as COM
pared to that of Canada is at fault.
The government of Canada offers
seductive inducements to these peo-
pie to become owners of fertile
lands in the northwest. Cheap
rates, free lands, liberal laws, a
splendid prospect is offered to

The Primary Election Bills.

The situation on primary cleo
ton bill is considerably mixed in the
legislature. The senate has passed
bill on the subject and the assembly
another. The bills, in essentials,
differ but little but the method of
the application of provisions do not
correspond. The assembly bill APP
plies to practically all elective
officials and is to go into effect in its
entirety as soon as it becomes a law.
The senate bill, we believe, includes
he same officials in its scope as does
that passed by the assembly but
only that part relating to county
officers goes into effect upon the
bills becoming a law. That part
applying to state officers, representa-
tives to Congress and United States
senators is to be submitted to a vote
of the people for their approval be-
fore it becomes effective. Confer
ence committees of the two houses
have been appointed and are work
ing towards a common ground of
agreement. The result of this con-
ference will be the fair thing-the
submission of the whole question to
a vote of the people. That will
settle the 'shash."

Mayor Rose in his campaign
speeches last fall, denounced the one
mill tax because large income from
this fund had a tendency to lead to
extravag ance. There is little doubt
but what such would be the case in
general. Inasmuch as the school
board had in this fund a large
amount of money above necessary
expenditures the members would
not be 10th to yield to the demands
of the teachers for advance Of wages
and school supplies. 1t may be of
interest for people to know that
some school districts in the state did
not raise any school moneys by tax
alton last year, the amount received
from the state fund being ample to
run the schools. The number of
districts that raised no tax, but con-
Quoted the school entirely from this
fund, is said to be more than $50.
There are two bills before the legis-
AZURE to regulate the school fund in
come by general tax-the assem-
bly, deciding upon six-tenths of a
mill and the senate upon seven
tenths. The conference will probab-
ly decide upon something that will
give an income of about 100000.

where they are hailed as the most
desirable of state builders and gov
eminent supporters. The Canadian
government has an immigration
agent in every part of the United
States offering unprecedented in
ducements to farmers to go to the
Canadian northwest. What is our
government doing in the meantime?
Anything to hold this class of peo-

places to be taken by people we
don't want for any use?

There is strong sentiment among
local fishermen in this part of the
state towards the enactment of law
requiring pretty stiff license fee
from non-residents of the state to
fish here. This question is under
discussion in the committee on fish
and game in the Legislature and this
is an opportune time for residents of
this locality to get up petition ask
ing the legislature to provide for
such license and send it in to AS

Wasteful Policy.

WaStefuI Policy.
ct he senate committee on educa-
ton has decided to cut out of the
Normal appropriation bill the $780,,
900 item for providing separate
buildings for boilers now located in
the Easements"
Here is an instance of want of
foresight. Such instances are legion
in the administration Of public
affairs. The question Immediately
arises: why were not separate build
ings made for housing these boilers
when the school houses were built?
1t may not be easy to answer the
question in a sentence. There may
be several things to be taken into
consideration but the most important
item was undoubtedly the want Of
funds. People cannot see far enough
ahead to provide wisely for the
public need. They vote such an
amount for public utilities as will
answer for the present. Experience
shows that this is in the end the
most expensive policy. Look at
our own city as an example of this
waste for want Of foresight! Take
the public school first. The school
building, put up in 1850 at cost of
about $4,000 with furnishings)
was built without reference to the
future growth of the city. 1t was
not planned for the ready adding of
rooms with view to convenience
and symmetry ofproportions. Two
additions have been made to the
original building in which it may
be seen that had plan originally
been made providing for this in
crease several thousand dollars
might have been saved and the COM
pleted building been more symmet-
rical and convenient. Two cisterns
were built, before the city water
works were putin, at cost of $500.
They are useless. An clubhouse
was built at a cost of $500 that is OF
no value, and woodshed, costing
about $500, that is now abandoned
Other changes have been made cost
ing hundreds of dollars. Had the
people been wise when the build
ing of a school house was under con-
sideration and planned for the de-
mands Of the future it would have
saved the people great deal. In
city affairs we have exercised about
the same faulty judgment. A mum
Der of cisterns were dug to provide
a water supply in case of fire. The
waterworks made these valueless
We have expended a large sum or
the artesian wells and power house
in the first ward that we do mo-
need. In the electric light plant we
planned too niggardly, which re-
suits, as in the other cases, in added
expense ultimately. So soon The
extention of the business necessitate'
a new dynamo and a new water
wheel. This is about the way
things run in public affairs all over
The people seem to think it best tc
provide only for present needs. II
municipal, corporate affairs, we car
safely provide for the future in pub
lie utilities and leave the payment o
such conveniences largely to those
who are to benefit by them here
after. In these statements no re-
Election is intended or justly charge
able to those having the direction o
these matters. They did the bes
they could under the circumstances
The fault is in the refusal of The
citizens to make proper provision!
for the future. People should lool
at these things with a more liberia
apprehension with broader appli
cation.

There are large number of bills
before the Legislature in amendment
of the fish and game laws. 1t is
probable that the laws putting rab-
bits and squirrels on the protected
list will be repealed, as the senti-

strong in demand of this.

One thousand deer are to be liberated
from Buckwoods Park owned by G. c..
Morthingtons OF New York; In few days.
The animals have multiplied SO rapidly
that they will strave unless many are set
at liberty. There are now over 1000 deer
in the park, which is opposite Shawnee,
and they have cleaned up nearly all the
food to be had. Food was SO scarce last
winter that many deer died.
Supt. Smith intends to let down sec
tons of the fence inclosing the park and
SO let the animals roam out whenever
they choose. Many of them are likely to
stray into Monroe.
Farmers residing near the park do not
favor the liberation fearing that the deer
will Go damage to their property, but their
freedom is the only way out of the diff
Guilty. I'VE either have to give the deer
their liberty or let them starve,' says
Smith.
Eleven years ago 10 deer were placed in
the park, which covers thousands of acres
and. since then about 100 have been killed
by hunting parties.

of dress is cut too low 1t makes the
shoulders seem too high or bullying,
and sometimes even stopped.
The shape or line in which bodice
should be cut or trimmed about the
chest and shoulders and neck should
depend upon the kind of line or angle
that needs to be emphasized through
out the figure for its enhancement.
A square low neck squares the Jaw
and makes all of the angles of the body
seem square. A small round chest line
starts an apparent following OF smalf
curves throughout the figure. A point
ed chest line emphasizes the elbow
points, chin point, finger tips, etc.,
throughout the body. If these points
need emphasis and stand it well, very
good; if not it is best to try some 9TH
er chest and shoulder line. The irregu-
lar drapery, line leaves beauty points
the freest opportunity of expression,
but it does not modify plainness or
help difficulties much.
There is profusion of interesting
necklaces nowadays that may be used
to slightly shield the uncollared neck,
without restricting it in any way, while
decorating helpfully and adding great
variety to becoming color and style to
costume. These, with fiat lace collars
of many beautiful shapes and designs
and soft fichus and dainty lingerie
chemisettes, make high collaring as I'M
necessary as it is unusual and unlovely.
High, stiff collars should feel uncom-
Portable, whether they do or not-and
they would feel so il the normal use
of the neck were habitual. Bondage
of the neck becomes intolerable as soon
as muscular freedom of motion and
form become established standards.
Every wave of personal magnetism
and grace, in order to proceed perfect
ly and potently from heart to head and
hand, must pass and repass through a
freely mobile neck. Thus the neck is
a natural thoroughfare whose perfect
freedom of service is most necessary
to the complicated art Of bodily express
sion and charm. 1t cannot be impair
ed or disused without injury to the
manner and meaning of the entire be-
ing. There cannot be perfect unity or
rhythm or order of motion In a system
of which SO important an avenue Is
rendered impossible or disordered. A
neck that moves badly or that is I'M
responsive and inactive prevents all
accurate expression of the most deli
cate, intricate and interesting harmo-
MES of conduct, and may thus hinder
and defeat our finest appreciation and
intention. Is not this too much to sac
rifice to a dressmaking caprice?

 Rev.. Oscar Fitzland Moore, Jr., Comes
 -s. from Orange, N. J.
 Rev. Oscar Fitzland Moore. jr., who has been assistant to Rev. pr. Alexan- der Mann, rector of Grace church. Or ange, N., J., has been appointed chap- lain and one of the masters at the Epis- |copal academy in Cheshire, the diocesan school of Connecticut. ss.s
 MT. Moore has been the rector's ass sistant in Grace church parish since June, 1901. He is very popular among the communicants of the church and is held in high esteem by Dr. Mann. Soon after his ordination he received a call to another parish, but declined in order to remain in Orange.
 Before going to Orange MT. Moore assisted the rector of the parish at Tux edo for some months as lay leader, having charge of the mission there. He was ordained deacon by Bishop Pot ter in the crypt of the Cathedral of St, John the Divine early in June, 1901, having just been graduated from the General Theological seminary, New York. A year later he was ordained to the priesthood of Grace church, Orange, by the late Bishop Starkey. Mr. Moore is native of Cincinnati l and prepared for the seminary at Will Hams college. His resignation as assist ant in Grace church takes effect Sep. tember 15.
