TAX D~ELINOUENTS.

Property holders of the Borough of
Wildwood have been fairly prompt in
paying their 1903 taxes, also the assess
ment bills for the recent cement side
walks, sewerage, street grading and
.graveling and curbing public improve
ments made. The borough has been
paying off and redeemlng The outstand-
ing improvement certificates and very
rapidly reducing the public indebted
ness, SO that today Wildwood is in
better shape physically and financially
than at any time in the brief history
of the place. On or before the first
Tuesday of February IN each year the
Tax Collector is required to file with
the Clerk of Cape May county a list OF
all the owners of property who are de-
l1nquent in the payment of their taxes
for the preceding year. When this is
recorded on the county's books it be-
comes a lien on the property. The
payment OF taxes before February lst,
1904, will prevent such a record and
save to the property owner the costs Of
the legal procedure. 1t will he to the
financial advantage of property owners
delinquent III the payment of their
1902 and 1908 taxes and assessments to
attend to this matter at once and make
payment to Collector NanHorn. The
Collector is also required by Law to
publish the names of the delinquents

Congratulations.

Mr.. John H. Cullom, Editor of the
Garland, Texas, NeWs, has written a
letter of congratulations to the manu-
facturers of Chamberlain,s Cough
Remedy as follows: "SiXteen years ago
when our first child was a baby he was
subject to croupy spells and we would
be very uneasy about him. We began
using Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
in 1887, and finding it such a reliable
remedy for colds and Group, we have
never been without it in the house
9.nce that time. We have five children
and have given it to all of them with
good results. One good feature of this
remedy is that it is not disagreeable
to take and our babies really like it.
Another is that it is not dangerous, and
there is no risk from giving an overdose.
| congratulate you upon the success of
your remedy" For sale by Cohen Bros,

A Trip to the Catskill Mountains.

A most enjoyable excursion to the
Catskill mountains left the Sunset cot
tage on the evening of January 10th.
The parlor car was well filled with
those fortunate enough to secure tickets.
Each lady and gentleman's ticket was
numbered and the duplicates started
on the trip together. AT each stop, of
which there were several, different SUBJ
jects of interest were discussed, such as
"Are Summer Flirtations Allowable"
as a Man or Woman most Expensive
to Dress?n Why is a man like his
Shoes?u After these questions were
satisfactorily settled the porters, of
which there were two, Messrs. Kelley
Tresher and J. Albert Harris, RECALLED
the jolly eXcursionists with sailed pea
nuts, prize packages, cough drops, ice
water, etc. The passengers enjoyed the
trip up the Hudson and were not anX-
ious to leave the comfortable car, but
the managers informed the passengers
that there was to be a 'deer hunt"
and the train was quickly emptied and
keen eyed hunters and huntresses were
soon stalking deer. 1t wasn't long be-
fore Bernard Tronnem returned with a
beautiful deer. The guests hen amused
themselves with various games until
a ''some would a fishing CO." The
ladies engaged in the contest and all
were successful, but instead of trout,
all caught great handsome .sson fish,"
The fish and fishermen ate their lunches
together from the most beautiful little
baskets. Each basket had very appro-
pirate quotations for each participant,
besides the dainty lunch. After the
lunch, delicious cake and ices were
eaten amidst the most pleasant sur
roundings. Those present were: Mr..

Rear Admiral Robley ID. Evans, COM

one of the most distinguished officers
of the navy.
Robley Dunglison Evans, who won the

period of strained relations with Chile
in 1891 while in command of the York
town, is a native of Virginia, was
graduated from the Naval academy in
1869 and reached the grade of lieuten-

in which he took part. During the war
with Spain he commanded the Iowa

naval battle off Santiago. He reached
the grade of rear admiral in 1901.

KEEP 1T OUT OF POLITICS.
Newark Daily Advertiser.

Newark Daily Advertiser.
Whatever the practical politicians
may think about it, the people of New
Jersey Eat large'' will applaud Cover
nor Murphy's stand in the matter of
the appointment of Colonel Bryant as
head of the Department of Factory
and Workshop Inspection and Miss
VanLeer as deputy inspector. Politi-
clans in Atlantic and in Camden,
where Miss VanLeer used to live, and
in Bergen, where she lives now, treat
ing the appointments as political pat
ronage, have been trying to make the
Governor view it in the same light.
They have protested against the APP
pointments because they We're not con
suited. The Governors answer, that
there was no question of politics in the
selections, and that they were made
purely for the best interests of the de-
partment, calls for COMMUNICATION.
The situation calls for continued,
firm adherence TO this principle when
it comes to appointing the various dep
uty inspectors. The Governors secre-
tary, John L.Swayze, whohas been the
practical head of the department for
several months, is preparing a bill for
its thorough reorganization, and the
political sponsors Of the present depu-
ties are importuning the Governor to
save them. From the facts elected by
Mr.. Swayze in his searching ~investiga-
ton of the department, there would
appear to be legitimate cause for APP
prehension that heads would fall right
and left under any proper reorganiza-
ton for it is evident that too many of
them too closely initiated their former
chief to be of much service to the State.
There can be no question that some of
them ought to go, and the Governor
should have no trouble, with the aid of
his private secretary, in picking out
those whose continuance on the pay
roll would be a detriment to the de-
partment.
Without faithful, honest and ener-
getic inspectors, the best head of the
department the State could secure
would be powerless to carry on the
work and enforce the law. If the Gov
ernor allows the politicians to interfere
with the proper reorganization of the
working staff, not only will Colonel
Bryant be hampered, but the chances
will be strongly against any improve
ment over the administration of Chief
Ward whose forced resignation was
hailed with pleasure by all who want
to see the child labor law enforced.
