New Departure in Land Law.

The President has signed the act
providing for the compulsory at
tendance of witnesses before regis
tiers and receivers Of the Land Office.
This is a new departure in the land
laws of the country and marks the
ending of quite protracted cam
paign in the interest of this legisla-
ton. The measure, in substance,
provides that registers and receivers
of Land offices, in all matters re-
quiring a hearing before them are
empowered to issue subpoenas di-
recting the attendance of witnesses,
provided that said subpoenas shall
be served within the county in
which attendance is required at
least five days before the attendance
is required.
The fees and mileage of witnesses
is the same as that provided by law
in the District courts, and the wit
ness shall have the right to receive
fee for one days attendance and
mileage in advance. The punish
ment for refusal to obey said sub
poenas, fees having been paid il
demanded, shall be a fine of not
more than $500 or imprisonment
not to exceed ninety days, or both,
at the discretion of the court.
The measure further provides for
the taking of depositions of wit
nesses residing outside the county
in which the hearing occurs by Civ
ing ten days written notice of the
time and place of the taking of such
depositions of the opposite party OF
parties. Whenever the taking oi
any deposition is concluded the
opposite party may proceed at once
at his own expense to take deposi
tions in his own behalf, at the same
time and place and before the same
officer, provided he gives due notice
of the same to the opposing party
or any agent or attorney represent
ing him.

Books for the Blind.
ON v 1Ol
Secretary

Among some of. the interesting
bills now pending before Congress
is one providing that reading mat
ter in raised characters for use OF
the blind, where the same is un-
sealed and not exceeding ten pounds
in weight, when sent by public in
stitutions for the blind as loan to
blind readers, OF when retuaned by
the latter to such institutions, shall
be transmitted in the United States
mails free of postage. The bill has
already passed the Senate and is
now on the House calendar.
The object of the bill is to put
reading matter within the reach of
all the blind people of the United
States. According to the last CEN
sus there are in this country about
80, 900 blind persons, very evenly
distributed according to population
among the several States.
The report shows that there are
only 239 blind people in Utah, 118
in Idaho and 20 in Wyoming; Wy
oming having the smallest number
of blind persons of any State or
Territory in the Union. New York
has the largest number. 616o, while
Ohio comes next with 1884.
The great cost of books printed
for the blind places them beyond
the reach of any but the wealthy.
A dictionary, for example, sells for
$50, an English grammar for $40
and a Bible sells at cost for 81.
The character of the type in which
books for the blind are printed
makes them very cumbersome.
Robinson's arithmetic, for example,
appears in six volumes, the Bible
in eleven volumes, and the diction-
ary in eighteen volumes. The ex'
pense, therefore, and great demand
for space which these books occupy
make it impossible for the great
majority of blind persons to possess
a library containing any considera'
bic number of books.
The National Government ha:
already established precedent fol
philanthropic legislation of thi'
character in behalf of the blind
For some years the interest OF
$2oo, 900 has been given annually
to the American Printing House TO
the Blind at Louisville, KY. Thi
sum of $40, a year is used TO-
printing books for the blind whicl
are distributed pro rata among tn
schools for the blind. There ar
thirty-two public schools and fv
, private schools for the education G
the blind which receive the book
published with this fund. Tber
are in these schools about 1000 pu
! pills. There is one weekly and thre
monthly papers published in char
acters for the blind.

Services of the Christian Church an
*& impressive Affair.
COST OVER $4,000 ALL PAID
Excellent Music, Inspiring OratOry
..g MANY Local Lights Were
.4t. ... r. Present. @S

The dedication of the new Chris
tian church Sunday was an occa-
sion which demonstrated alike the
desire of the Caldwell people to
strengthen the moral and spiritual
forces, and their ability to meet
this need in a manner correspond
ing with advancement along other
lines. ....5
Properly directed effort of this
character is significant of a true
pride in beautifying the town and
in charging the refining influences
for its citizens and in providing an
inviting place for the stranger
within the gates"
This occasion was one of great
joy especially to those most directly
concerned in the building of this
handsome church costing over
$4,000. The extent to which this
spirit was manifested by Caldwell
people generally, was evidenced by
the substantial response to the call
for new or increased pledges and by
which the amount raised was suffi-
cient to cover an indebtedness of
$1613.
Preceding this call Elder B. F.
Clay fttingly addressed the congre-
cation. Other ministers from the
various churches of Caldwell were
present, as were also a number of
visiting friends from adjoining
towns and who nobly aided when
the opportunity was given.
The afternoon service was made
interesting and impressive by an
ably delivered sermon by Elder A.
K. Wright, of Boise. Each meet
ing was largely attended and the
building was crowded to its utmost
capacity during the evening when
the dedicatory sermon was preach
ed by Elder w. F. Cowden of Ia
coma, WASH, who constrained
his hearers to lofty aspirations,
and when the final dedication cere-
monies were performed, by the e.
ders of the church reading in uni
son an adaptable form supplement-
ed by appropriate scripture. The
audience was deeply impressed.
The music was an inspiring feat
ure of the whole days service.
Beautiful anthems were sung by a
choir composed of the best musical
talent of this city among whom are
r some of the most talented vocalists
of the State.
Caldwell appreciates the progress
sive leaders who managed the erec-
ton of this very creditable build
ing.

1HF AMERICAN LABOR UNION
c+orts With a Membership OF Over
55-Enthusiastic, Earnest,
Aggressive. ;, S,.@.' '.-

A branch of the American Labor
Union was organized at this place
Thursday night at Armory hall
The uniou starts off with a mem
bership of IS, and with nearly all
the trades of this city represented.
A. L. Butts was made president,
Frank Hardy, vice PRESIDENT; Ora
A, Cox, secretary; T. M. Ward
treasurer; c. R. Shipley, financial
secretary; Henry Cox, Herb Van
Housen, and L. Tompkins, trustees
The union was launched under
most auspicious circumstances and,
with one feature eliminated, giv<s
aattering promise of success. The
\ Objectionable feature to which we
refer is that of Socialism. The pre-
amble to the constitution under
which the union is organized, has
the following:
believing that the time has
come for undivided, independent
working class political action, we
hereby declare in favor of Interna-
tional Socialism, and adopt the
platform of the Socialist Party of
America in its entirety as the polit-
ical platform of the American La
Dor Union, and we earnestly ap-
peal to all members of the Ameri'
can Labor Union, and the working
class in general, to be governed by
these conditions.
Taken in connection with the
general tenor of the remainder o
the preamble, and the petition sign
ed in order to procure a charter, i
would seem to us to be politica
labor union, whose peculiar brant
Of politics is Socialism.
However, the members of thu
union strongly assert that that par
Of the constitution will be a deaC
letter, and that the union will steel
clear of the shoals OF politics upon
which the great ship of labor un
lonlsm has been so many time:
stranded and often wrecked.
The main object, in fact the sole
object of the local organization, j
we understand Alright the scheme
OF its promoters, is to establish I
traternal feeling among the labor
ing people of our city, and to es
taollsh uniform scale of wages 70
labor, and uniform price for th'
products of labor.
And as such it receives our mos
cordial support and hearty com
mendation.

Wildwood Tax Sale.

The sale of property in Wildwood for
the year 1901, took place at the borough
hall on Thursday OF last week and was
conducted by Collector VanHorn.
Many of the delinquents had settled
before day of sale and therefore only a
few properties remained to be sold.

nue., west of the railroad, advertised as
the property of Fannie M. Mason,
upon which the 1901 taxes and the
sewerage assessment remained unpaid,

erty OF Cedar avenue, upon which the

representing the Cape May Court House
building and loan association, which

There is Truth in This Taken from
an English Newspaper.

1t is a fair criterion to Judge a nation
by its newspapers and its politicians.
A foreigner who knows nothing of
Britain but from seeing British news
papers and reading the speeches of
British politicians is able to obtain u
pretty accurate estimate of the sort of
people w are. Few things, however,
make an American so angry as wnen
you begin to draw conclusions of the
sort of people the United States folk
are from the United States newspapers
and the United States politicians. The
feathers of the eagle become ruffied II
the injustice you are doing. There are
plenty of heightened newspapers which
according to their own advertisements
on the headings, publish all the news
fit to be read " and there are plenty of
lo~fty-purposed men mixed up with poll
tics. Unfortunately, however, you
cannot judge 10y exceptions; you must
judge 10y the lump. And judging poll
tics and papers by the lump the good
American has no reason 10 he proud of
one or the other.
Has it struck you as curious that
America-which has ar idea it owns a
monopoly of liberty, which greets you
with a Statue oil Liberty at the mouth
OF New YORK maroon, when sings ABOUT
itself as the "sweet land of liberty,n
and whose orators talk about it as
though they had invented it-shOuld
III matters of government be corrupt 10
the core?
1t is a popular habit Nth us to sneer
at our leisured middle-class and titled
upper circle. Let it go that many of
the jibes are well deserved. Yet we
shouldn't forget hat these very people
have, TO a great extent, got the local
government of England in their hands.
1t is human nature We should all keep
an eye on personal interests; we all do
that, from crusted Tory TO rampant
Radical. Still the fact remains that
u local governors have The general
welfare at heart; and there are thou
sands of men in England Today who
might he devoting themselves to pleas
ure but who sit on County Councils,
attend TO education, work On Boards of
Guardians, and are kept pretty busy.
Their reward is the modified apprecia-
ton of people in their district.
America will he cleaner politically
when it has what III vague terms we
call a leisured class. The reason Aneri-
can politics are dirty is hat nobody
enters politics except for money-mak-
ing. Politicians are all ION the make,p
and they champion the cause which
provides the most dollars.-LOndOn
