Strowbridge Scores the First Point.
A meeting of the Board of Educa-
tion was held at the Liberty street
schoolhouse on Monday evening for
the purpose of investigating the
charges of Mrs. Cyrus Hedden against
the janitor of the school, George
Strowbridge. The full board was in
attendance, also Mr.. Knight, a court
stenographer. Notice of the meeting
had been served upon all parties
interested by Constable Collins, but
none of the complainants were
present.
The meeting was in no way star
chamber proceeding. Testimony of sew
eral witnesses was taken and careful
examination made of that part of the
building in which the alleged assault
was said to have taken place.
After due consideration the board
decided that it would not be justified
in discharging or even suspending
Strowbridge.

w. f. Ely, of Alton, secretary of the
Morris County Board of Agriculture
has issued notice for a continued
meeting of the Society to be held to-
morrow in the County Hall at 1.30
p. m. to further discuss the Mt. Free
dom road and the finances of the
county, also the primary election law.
1t is expected to have several prom
inent men to talk on the above sub
ject, and free discussion will follow,
in which every one who has any thing
to say can say it.
An invitation, it is said, has been
sent to Freeholder Schonenberger to
be present and give such further in
formation as he may have about the
road,
1t is said by member of the society
that if Mr.. Schonenberger refuses to
attend the meeting it will be an ad-
mission on his part that the county is
burdened with the road If he comes
it is proposed to subject him to an
other cross-examination, and it is safe
to say Mr. Schonenberger may profit
by his past experience in this matter.
Since the last meeting of the society
number of members have been driven
over the Mt. Freedom road and salts
fed themselves as to the "cuts" and
:" fills " told Of. To many the inspec-
tion of the road has been revelation.
In an investigation of the approval of
the Mt. Freedom road, several prom
inent State officials have been found
at the bottom of it. 1t still remains
to ascertain the real object of these
men in promoting the building of the
road.

The Prudential,s Big business.

The Prudential Insurance Company
of America has again beaten it's re-
cord a kind of habit it has acquired
having in 1908 written no less sum
than $293, 100000 of paid-for life insur-
ance, which is greater sum than has
ever been written in one year by any
other company of the same age as
The Prudential. This record is truly
astonishing, and there can be no
better evidence of the vast and grow
ing popularity of The Prudential
among the thrifty classes. While
most of it's business is done among the
industrial population, it has also a
large ordinary business, in policies
amounting from $1,000 up to $1,000
1t would be difficult to suggest any
improvement in the way that The
Prudential has met the necessities of
the public in the matter of life insur-
ance. The company has always been
in the habit of settling it's claims in
the most satisfactory and prompt
manner. Its policies are very liberal
in their terms and convey many
substantial benefits, which, it is
quite evident, are warmly appreciated
by the insuring public. Write to the
home office of the company, Newark,
N. j., for information concerning its
policies, that not only furnish guar
anteed protection to the family, but
dividends to the policyhOlder as well.

coming this abuse of extras by publish ing the news in it's morning edition, with the proviso that, unless some thing unusual develops there will be no extras" the issuing of an extra having become nowadays the rule rather than the exception. Of course. as the day advances most of the other papers flood the city with extras. which are devour- ed ravenously. Nobody seems to notice or to care for the fact that the absence of 8 Jiji extra practically discredits the news.
 Whether the papers create the want or the want the papers. is too metaphy- sieal question. but the truth of the situation is that the war spirit has con- trol of everybody except those at the head of the movement.
 As if the existing yellowness was not deep-dyed enough, another journal has entered the field which eclipses them all. This is the Dempo (TeIegraph), which is at swords points with the rest of the press for not being yellow enough Its motto is, Let us fight and win, let us fight and lose. but let us

One of it's recent utterances was that ''the government is prepared to yield everything to Russia" and the flowery abuse of the cabinet for this |suppostitious policy was something fearful and wonderful to read.
 To show how little the papers actu- ally knew of the status of affairs the Shogyo Slumpo fatly contradicted the Dempo and asserted that the govern ment had absolutely determined on war unless it's proposals were accepted by Russia in toto" The Shogyo repre- sents the interests of the business men of Japan. The Nippon, which repre- sents the extreme Japanese chauvinism took it's stand along with the Dempo. The Yomiruri, Hochi, Chuo, Jiminin and other minor papers also committed themselves to policies uniting abuse of the procrastinating cabinet and loud applause of Koko Hironka, who was the president of the prorogued diet which was in open hostility to the gov- ernment.
 The unanimity of the press in foster ing the war spirit in Japan was we'll illustrated recently by a meeting of Tokio and Osaka journalists who advo- cated war, in the kowai-do. public hall" of Osaka. There was over 2,500 delegates present indulging in the most impassioned and inhammatory oratory, appealing to national patriotism and virtully calling for the resignation of the ministry.
