Another query has arisen in local
city affairs. This time it is as to the
seating of the new School Board elect
ed Nov. 8, the members Of which are
A Butler, NJ. G. Boals and R. b. Kel-
Ter, elected for three year terms, and
E P. Chamberlin. F. r. Griffin and
L. B. Stougn, elected for two year
terms. The situation presents itself
by reason of the old School Board hav-
ing failed to meet, in accordance with
q provision of the new School Code,
the second Monday after election to
canvass the vote and issue certificates
to the newly elected members The
dilemma is to be regretted. The newly
elected Board members are in no way
to blame for the direliction of the old
Board and it Is hardly probable that
the oversight will result in the legal
entanglements which come writers
would have MS believe 1t will The
new members were legally elected and
why they should not go into Office and
make tax Ievies and issue bonds in a
manner entirely legal. not withstand
ing the failure of the old Board to act
in strict conformity to the school Law,
there seems to be no great reason II
this failure on The part Of the old
Board to canvass the.vote and issue
certificates makes it impossible for the
newly elected Board members to serve
legally it perpetuates in Office the mem
bers Of the old Board and they may
continue in office so long Ms the pres
ent School Code continues in effect
provicing the Board at each election
should commit the same sin of omission
1t has unwittingly committed this time.

County Clerk r. o. Batch had
worried twain Of callers Wednesday.
The two were a couple welded some
time ago by a justice of the peace in
the county whom they stated they had
understood acted illegally in marrying
them, they having been told that he
was serving without authority of law
at the time he tied the knot.
Clerk Batch by referring to Office
records soon ascertained that the JUS
tice marrying them was serving legal
ly at the time of the marriage and the
couple went from the Office in a spirit
Of rejoicing.
The justice in question was one
whose term expired in April 1904 and
who was appointed by the township
trustees in authority to serve until the
first Monday of January 1905. wher
his successor goes into Office. Several
justices in the county whose terms ex-
pired in April are acting at present
without being appointed by the trus
tees to serve until January and accord
ingly their acts since April are illegal.
Had this couple been welded by one Of

Cancer Cured by Violet Leaves.

It seems impossible that so mallg
nant disease as cancer can be cured
by so simple remedy as violet leaves.
Yet such case is reported by the Lon
don Daily News and the, patient was
Lady Margaret Msrsbam, sister OF the
Earl o. Romney, who was brought 10
the point Of death by cancer, which
defied surgery. At the suggestion OF
a friend, who remembered that an Old
nurss said cancer could be cured by
the leaves Of the violet, the experiment
was tried. A bunch of fresh violet
leaves was macerated in quart o.
water and lint was soaked In the IN.
fusion and applied to the seat OF the
disease, repeatedly. The lady did mol
die and the cancer disappeared, wheth
er the vio,ets had anything to do with
the marvellous change Or not.

Rich Square Times
Rich Square cannot boast OF tho
number and extent OF its manufacture
ing establishments, but it can speak
with pardonable pride on the large
number of honest and successful
farmers in its vicinity who are making
two blades Of grass grow where only
one was found a short time ago. Our
farmers are living more at home than
for many years, that is, they are rails
ing more OF the necessaries OF liie ard
consequently more Independent. Some
OF our merchants sell goods on time,
but they collect in full every la!l. Rot
long ago We heard the heads OF two OF
our largest mercantile firms say they
had never lost as much as one hundred
and fifty dollars by bad debts. '.he ad-
min;s.rator OF the Lite j. w. B"xson
who died leaving an estate worth fno.-
10000, ali Of which was accrma!a- q
here in a period cf atcn. tst''l i've
years, collected every cent due tie es-
tate. This is considered remarkable
when the large number OF debtors Is
! considered. The present high price OF
cotton is not likely to cause tho
farmers Of Rich Square section to iof-
get their smokehouses and corn crios.
