LIGHTS AND SHADES.

The new hose wagon, which the
Humane boys are so proud Of. is. caus-
ing great deal of anxiety among the
families and friends of some OF the
members Of the engine company.
The wagon has been on duty a little
over week and during that time
eyes and ears have been kept open
for the first indication of a fine. and
the first tuikle of the fire bell. Noses
too, have been put to extra duty and
long shifts are daily taken by some of
the boys for smoky smells that may
denote incipient fires.
Texas "Bill' Meeker, pete
Irving, Hank" Wright and walt"
Stiles have been sleepless and almost
speechless for fear the baby would
be spanked" by some of the other
companies. They have grown hag-
gard, wan and irritable with their
long vigil but they still insist on ly-
ing awake o'nights, ready at the first
intimation of fire to spring into their
boots and trousers and get the baby"
first to the scene. No amount of
p6TSudSKOl Call lIluIC6 tileSe e1lCIlelSl-
asts to close their eyes, ears on noses
and some fears are entertained for
their reason unless something happens
soon to release them from the fearful
strain. The tinkle of the telephone
bell, the nine O'Clock taps or the
striking of the town clock makes each
and every one of them jump and start.
If small boy yells, they think some
one is crying fire. If match is
scratched, the blaze catches their eye
and they see in it an incipient confia-
grafton. They have but one thought,
one ambition, to get first water on
the first fire. If they fail to do this
all the joys OF life will have sunk into
insignificance. All the lessons of
other forms of disgrace will be well
coined by them as pleasantries com
pared to the one of being beaten to
the first fire with THE new machine.
May their devotion receive its proper
reward ffty4

Whether there is religious obi
CATION to observe the Lenten season,
the people of different sects and
churches do not agree but that the
body, the mind and the morals may
be benefited by practicing the abb
stemiousness which some churches
enioin as duty at this time of year
cannot be questioned. Most of us
eat too much, and many of us drink
too much for the good of our health.
Our alimentary organs are common
ly the most abused parts of our
bodies. We rest our muscles and
brains on Sunday, and many of us
celebrate holidays and take annual
vacations to give them recreation !;
but few of us ever grant our stom-
achs similar furloughs. We habit
ually give them more work than
they can we'll do if they fail to do
everything we demand of them, we
increase their exertions by stimu-
lating them with medicines or liq-
uors, as cruel men beat their over
worked and emaciated horses to
make them pull excessive loads, and
then we wonder why we have not
rugged health.

People who have observed even
CASUALLY the progress of modern sci
ence will endorse without reserve
the decision of the Supreme Court
Of Pennsylvania, which has ruled
that belief in Spiritualism does not
constitute insanity. 1t is unsafe
these days to impute insanity to the
advocates of any belief no matter
how extravagant it may appear
The insanity of one generation is
the scientific fact Of the next.
Thirty years ago the notion that
people could talk over wire was
delusion-the emanation of disor-
dered brain. To-day the telephone
is one of the most commonplace of
articles. That messages can be
transmitted through the air without
other conductor is now demonstrat-
ed. Ten years ago the man who
should have advanced such a theory
probably would have been deemed
a lunatic.

The labor problem is growing
both serious and complex. 1t is
stated that large number of trades
and labor organizations throughout
the country have given notice to
employers that they will demand an
increase of wages on April 1. To
quote labor journal, the cost OF
living is advancing SO rapidly that
many workmen who are steadily
employed at fair wages are unable
to call themselves anywhere near
prosperous.
Last year there was a veritable
epidemic of strikes and this year
the indication is that there will be
an even greater disturbance in the
industrial world. Is there no solu-
ton of the matter? Must the pros
perity of the country continue to
be imperiled by the numerous
strikes in which workmen are OBJ
stinately fighting for what they be-
lieve is just and right and employ
ers are no less obstinately contend
ing against acceding to what they
claim are unreasonable demands.
Arbitration, it is true, has been
found very effective in some in
stances, but as a rule the parties
cannot agree on this solution until
a strike has been actually declared
and much damage done in conse-
quence 1t is doubtful if compul-
sorry arbitration would ac-
complish much in the interests of
industrial peace, for it would fail to
lessen the discomfort of labor. and
unless that is done there can be no
industrial peace. "A communication
to the Chronicle from gentleman
whose name does not appear sug-
gests correction of conditions by
the adjustment of wage scales by
industrial commissions acting on be-
half of the Federal and State gov
ernments. At first blush this looks
like a proposition of considerable
merit. 1t will however, open the
door to the naming of body of
arbitrators, or commissioners, or
adjudicators, or whatever they may

Judge Vreeland has made very
creditable record during the. term of
five years he has served in the honora-
BILE position which he win soon vacate,
He has administered justice fairly and
impartially, and has retained the re-
spect and esteem of all who had occa-
sion to do business before him. A re-
appointment was rendered him which
he declined, feeling that it was better
for him to engage in active practice,
which his position of Judge debarred
him from. -JerSeyman.
Whether i'll private practice or in
public service, Judge Vreeland will
continue to retain the confidence of
the people. If called to still further
responsible duties of trust, where legal
ability of high order is required, we
believe he will meet such responsible
ties as well and as hOnorably as he has
those of the past. Boonton Bulletin.

Four Dealers Paid Pines.

result of q visit from inspectors represent
ing the State Board of Healbh. Two drug
gists and two grocers were arrrigned be-
fore Justice Bowers last Saturday and paid
fine of $50 each. The charge on which
the dealers were held was selling inferior
mixtures of olive oil and lAudanum. State
Chemist r. O. Brooks made the analysis,
and the charge that the goods sold were
impure was not seriously questioned The
men who paid the ESQ fne were Pursell

wholesalers reimbursed the dealers. who
did not know the goods sold were not up
to the standard. Several other com plants

Indications now point to the fail
IRE to become law of the bill
which will give Morristown the
right to raise by taxation $40, 900
instead of the $50, 900 it may now
raise under the charter. Morris
town has taken pride in the fact
that its tax rate has been lower than
any other municipality of its class
in the State with possibly one ex-
ception. The objections to the in
crease come from a number OF c1ti-
zens who are convinced that the
present administration has not been
an economical one They cite the
fact that when republicans took con-
troll of city affairs a few years ago
they inherited a debt of some $I3,-
900. A careful conduct of affairs
enabled them to wipe out this claim
against the city. Certain moneys
which might have been raised were
not asked for during the past three
years, and there seems to be a we'll
defined feeling that there has been
too much carelessness shown in the
management of city finances. The
money asked for streets and light
ing and other purposes does not ap-
pear to be justified by past accom-
plishment. Ina nutshell, it would
seem as though the democratic adj
ministration, either from careless
ness or incompetency, has been
unable to successfully govern the
city with the amount of money at
their disposal despite the fact that
their republican predecessors did it
with less. The coming election can
not possibly change the complexion
of the Council and the opponents of
the measure ask why additional
money should be given it with
which to continue the mismanage
ment AT any rate it is a situation
which not onlysinyites:but demands
attention.
