eovERNoR sroKEs's MESSAGE.


Governor Stokes is reported to have
about completed the outlines of his
annual message to the Legislature.
None OF its contents will be officially
made public until it is presented to
the lawmakers, but, according to the
Trenton correspondents, 'those close
to the executive declare that it will be
full of ginger
1t is said that among the things he
will recommend will be legislation
looking to limitation of franchises for
public utility corporations and further
taxation legislation. From Trenton
there also comes the report that prob
ably the most important matter to be
treated by the governor will be the
burning question of politics, with es-
pecial reference TO bribery of voters.
The governor, it is. said, has made ex-
haustiye investigation of the subject
by correspondence with the executives
of other States and that he has about
concluded the time is ripe for the en-
actmeDt OF more stringent laws to cor
rect the evil and deal itsuch blow as
will forever remove it from the State.

4 MENACE TO THE coMMUslrY.

The fire and loss of life Thursday is
a striking example of the effects Of
gasolene. 1t is well-known that at
least once a week the Standard Oil
Co. sends tank wagon from its Mad
ison depot to Morristown loaded with
gasolene for local dealers. How much
is kept stored in the business part of
the town it is impossible to say, but it
must run into the hundreds of gallons.
Some dealers have underground tanks,
but have the rest and are the under
ground tanks safe 1t is high time
that some regulations are made and
enforced concerning the storage and
sale of this dangerous liquid before
there is greater loss of life or more
destroyed. Powder is sup
posed to be kept out of town, why not

THE United States Supreme Court
has affirmed the validity of compulsory
vaccination statutes The most re-
cent decision was in case brought
from Massachusetts. The contention
on which the appeal was based was
that the laws forcing citizens or their
children to be vaccinated, was in con
tradiction of the fourteenth amend
ment to the Federal Constitution,
which provides that no State shall
make or enforce any law which could
abridge the privileges of citizens Of
the United States. The Federal court
of last resort declares that the person
al liberty secured by the fourteenth
amendment against State legislation
abridging the privileges OF citizens is
not infringed by a State law making
vaccination compulsory. The Supreme
Court asserts that the legislature was
fully authorized to make choice be
tween the theory of those who regard
vaccination as worthless or injurious
and the generally accepted theory that
vaccination is Of the greatest value a:
protection against smallpox.

MoRRIsToWN may be said to be in 9
state Of unusual mental alertness.
Men on every side are discussing many
affairs with unusual interest. Fol
months they have gathered by the
scores or hundreds to discuss the ques-
ton of taking care of their families in
case of their death owing to an In
crease iii the rate Of insurance. Policy
holders in regular insurance companies
ciscuss with each other the adyisa-
bility OF continuing payments of
premiums in view Of the exposures
that are being made of the business
methods of the great companies An
active interest is taken in equal taxa
tion and municipal ownership, and
men are demanding that there shall
be no " b0ssism'' ia politics in order
that every man may have a full and
free choice in his political preference.
An aroused interest is observed in
municipal affairs; men are discussing
the questions Of public health, sever
age, the condition of our streets, the
new town hall project, who shall be
street commissioner and chief engin-
eer and incidentally show an interest
in their tax bills which are now being
sent out. The merchants of the town
are arousing themselves to see what
improvements can be made in business
conditions, the charitable organiza-
tions are showing unusual activity,
while the social organizations are en-
deavoring to outstrip efforts Of the
past in order to afford amusement for
pleasure seekers. Altogether the town
has become interested along many
lines. With others the religious lead
ers Of the community, believing that
the greatest need of the town is a re-
ligious awakening have set on foot
measure to bring about that desirable
result. Everybody believes in the fu-
ture life and recognizes the uncertain
ty and shortness Of duration Of the
human life, and admit that as the
present life is lived will depend the
future existence. Yet 1t is surpris-
ing fact to see so many men who are
active and energetic in everyday pur-
suits. which they admit are only tenn
porary, utterly disregard the future
which they know is inevitable. or the
active business and society men in
Morristown not one in ten have SO far
paid the least attention to the effort
now being made to interest them in
the things pertaining to their eternal
welfare, and we see the special meet
ings attended by comparatively few
men and a large number Of women
The men Of Morristown are neglecting
a very important matter and should
bear in mind the words Of the hymn
Why should we waste on trifllng cares
The life which Gods compassion spares,
While in the various range of Thought
The one thing needful is forgotY

PALTICULAR attention is called to
the notice for elections in the several
townships, boroughs and wards for To-
cal committees of the Republican par
ty. These committees have charge
Of elections in their respective NUM-
palities and also recommend appli-
cants for office. The chairr these
committees make up the county COM
mittee which has charge q the gener-
al elections. There is considerable
talk at present about bosses and rings
and the opportunity is now given for
any one to come forward and take up
the duties and responsibilities of the
committee. work. There is no DISPOSE
tion on the part Of the present COM
mitteemen to continue themselves in
office. In fact, several prominent
members of the county committee, in
Guiding the chairman of the First
Ward Committee, have announced
their intention of retiring from COM
mittee work on the expiration of their
present term. Let every Republican
attend his primary and havea voice in
the management of the party.

ance was started by him IN 1863, and
there has since been no break in the
yearly Thanksgiving procIamations
since that date.
The first Lincoln proclamation ap-
pointing a day for divine supplication
was dated Aug. II, 1861. 1t desig-
mated the last Thursday in September
as "a day Of humiliation, prayer and
fasting" Things did not look especial
" bright for the northern arms just
then. The memory OF Bull Run was
still fresh. Perhaps to this fact may
be aseribed the pathetic wording Of
the document.
Whereas. When our own beloved coun-
4 try once, by the blessing of God, united,
prosperous and happy, is now afflicted
with faction and civil war, 1t is peculiar
! " flt for us to recognize the hand of God
tn this terrible visitation and In sorrowfui
remembrance of our own faults and
crimes as a nation and as individuals TO
humble ourselves before him and to pray
for his mercy
Thousands of individuals through
out the land refrained from food and
prayed for the nations salvation. The
1861, was a rather subdued occasion
and there was no presidential procla-
nation. BY the following spring, how
ever, the clouds had begun to lift.
Forts Henry and Donelson had been
captured and Shiloh had been fought.
So ON the 10th Of April Lincoln re-
quested that the people give thanks
because sit has pleased Almighty
God to vouchsafe signal victories to
the land and naval forces" Thanks
giving day proper in November Of 1862
was observed much as 1t had been the
year previous and no proclamation ac-
companied it.
The momentous year Of 1868 saw
three such proclamations. however.
The first was dated March 80 and
designated April 80 as day Of fasting
and prayer. In this rather noteworthy
document occurs the significant state
ment, "But we have forgotten God"
\ BY July 10 Yicksburg had opened
the Mississippi, and Gettysburg had
ended the fear of invasion, so on that
day another proclamation was issued.
reciting that God had heard the pray
ers of the people and had vouchsafed
victories on land and sea so signal
and SO effective" as to promise uIti-
mate peace. So Thursday, Aug. 6. was
set apart as day for national thanks
giving.
On Oct. came the first Of I.incoln'a
regular Thanksgiving day proclama-
lions. It recites the brighter outlook
for the Union, dwells lovingly ON the
continued growth Of the nation despite
Its tribuIations, gratefully points to
the fact that other nations have not
been drawn into the struggle, and says.
mo human counsel hath devised nor
hath any mortal hand worked out these
great things" SO the last Thursday in
November is set apart as "a day Of
thanksgiving and praise"
July 7, 1864. by direction OF congress,
President Lincoln designated the first
Thursday Of August "as day Of ma
tional humiliation and prayer" Oct
20 Of the same year saw the issuance
of Lincoln's second and last regular
Thanksgiving proclamation. Before
Thanksgiving day arrived 1t was
known that Lincoln. by an overwhelm-
ing majority, had been chosen to sue
coed himself. The war was wearing
to close, and the occasion was aus
plcious.

By reason of the vast amoHnt Of
sewage that is dumped into them
every day, the waters OF New York
Harbor are rapidly getting. into con-
ditiOn that is distinct menace to the
health of the city. Up to the present
time there has been general idea
prevailing that, owing to tidal diffts-
sion and the currents of the various
streams flowing into the ocean, the
bay and the rivers could be made the
outlets for the sewers of the eommun-
ity without danger to the public
health. What may have been true in
former years has ceased to be true
withthe great increase in the popula-
tion otthe metropolitan. district, and
the polluted condition of the waters
of New York Harbor has now come TO
be a series question.
About fifty samples Of water have
been taken from the bay at many
points between tile Battery and Coney
Island and the Battery and Raritan
Bay. These have been alalEzed, with
the result that the colon baeillus-an
invariable accompaniment Of sewage
was nearly always foundi- according
to the presumptive test. n addition
to this, samples were taken from the
oyster eeds Id the harbor and 1t was
found that the shellfish were tainted
where the water was polluted. It is
customary to take oystens from their
salt water beds few days before they
are to be brought to market and put
them ia beds at the mouths OF fresh
water streams to "drink." This has
tendency to bleach and bloat Them.
In every case it was, found that the
oysters taken from the bleaching beds
were distinctly tainted.
The reason for this is, Of course
that all the streams employing New
York Harbor are really great sewers
for the districts through which uhey
pass. The present approximate Qlaiy
sanitary sewage discharge into New
York Harbor is 10000, 600 gallons
The theory has been that this wonlc
be diffused and carried away by the
action of the tides. The fact OF the
matter is experiment. has shown thai
the stuff Journeys back and forth across
the Upper Bay, some Of it gradually
making its way out to sea, but TIN
most of it moving around ia the con
lines Of the Upper Bay until It Is dis
posed. Of by the vegetable matter anc

after that sort Of thing. In the meat
thine more sewage is coming in DALI
than is being got rid of, with the re
suit that the pollution ia the harbol

THE gathering of legislators in Tren-
ton on Tuesday did not altogether
clear UP the situation in regard to or
ganization. Assemblyman Mills has
withdrawn from the contest for the
Speakership and it now seems probable
that Assemblyman Robbins, Of Bur
lington, will be the presiding officer
of the House. Senator Bradley will be
the president Of the Senate and Sena-
tor Hillery the leader. The Essex and
Hudson members are trying to get to-
gether, but even if they do it is not at
all certain that they will control legis,

THE rumoged Cabinet changes to oc-
cur early in January win not take
place. Secretary Shaw is to remain at
the head Of the Treasury Department
until the close of the coming session of
Congress and Attorney General Moody
will remain in Office until next sum
mer, if not longer. These two import
ant advisers of the President are need
ed just now because Of the financial
conditions and the determination to
press matters in the legal department.
The President realizes that the places
of these officials could not readily be
supplied with men as well fitted for
the posts as they are, and hence has
persuaded them to remain with him.
