tude very much above our lands.


This is matter that should be taken
into account in experimenting with
new crops, or failure will follow and
what might be a success turn to a
failure.
For rice production we proceed in
manner the opposite to what we do
the production of any other crop.
We hold the water on, while for other
crops the water must be run off quick
ly, even if artdcially irrigated. 1t is
safe to say that we have no drained
land in this part Of the country. do
not mean land that the water will not
run off, but l mean land that is free
from dead" water. We have never
put in the bitches that the people of
older parts Of the country put in,
hence our lands cannot be expected to
do what drained lands will do.
We shall probably soon begin to
drain and put in condition for profit
able diversifcation, and then success
will be ours. The old maxim. "There
is no excellence without much labor
we'll applies to our condition. The
fellow that is too indolent to dig a
ditch will probably go on raising
rice, and the other fellow will dc
something else. "As it was in the
beginning is now. Jas Ellis in Rice

{ NEWARK, Sept 13, 1905.-R. v.
Lindabury, counsel for Henry w, Dore-
mus and other riparian owners in the
Passaic River pollution suit instituted
against the Mayor and Common Council
of Paterson, moved to-day before Vice
Chancellor Stevens for an order to strike
out the cross bill and answer of the de-
fendant city The Vice-Chancellor fixed
September 26 as the date for hearing ar
guments of counsel on the motion to
strike out.
In the cross bill Paterson denies some
of the allegations in the bill of COM
plainants, but admits that the sewage of
that city is emptied into the Passaic
River and by it the river is "still some
what polluted 1t is insisted that all
the compensation the complainants are
entitled to is for actual injury done to
their lands by any pollution from the
sewage, if the pollution and injury shall
be proved in court. 1t is there claimed in
the cross bill that by virtue of acts of the
New Jersey Legislature the city of Pater-
son was authorized to build sewers and
discharge the sewage into the Passaic
River, a natural waterway, and that the
city also acquired the right, if it did not
have it before, to the benefit of the I'M
obstructed flow of the water of the river.
1t is then charged in the cross bill that
the East Jersey Water Company has, by
building and maintaining dams and res
ervoirs above Paterson, diverted a great
deal of the water of the river from Pat
erson and points below that city, and that
the city of Newark uses daily millions of
gallons of the water SO diverted from the
natural flow of the river
1t is further stated that the Dundee
Dam holds back much of the solids in the
sewage of Paterson. It is then claimed
in the cross bill that if the Dundee Dam,
which was built many years ago, We're
removed the natural flow of the river
would be restored, less the amount Of
water diverted above Paterson, and that
the river water would be purified in the
flow to Newark and past other places
below Paterson.
Finally it was asked in the cross bill
that the eomplainants in the East Jersey
Water Company and the Dundee Dam
Construction Company be summoned to
the Chancery Court to testify on the
points recited in the cross bill. 1t is also
mentioned that the Dundee Dam Com
pany is among the complainants in the

MERELY
MENTIONED

There were many surprises yesterday
in the vote at the Democratic primaries
for the Shrievalty nomination. Perhaps
none was greater than the poor showing
made by John J. Heavey. Not alone
were Mr.. Heavey and his advocates sur
prised at the result of the vote in Jersey
City, but the followers of EsIbert sey-
mour opened their eyes wide and Won
dered when ii, was found that Mr.. Hea-
yey had lonIy carried four yotin districts
in the entire city. Like Mr. Seymour,
Mr.. Heavey had made a thorough can
yass. He attended as many public
gatherings as did Mr.. Seymour and
while he may not have spent as much
money as the Bayonne man, his purse
sEmuch lighter now than it was at the
beginning of the year when he entered
the contest for the nomination for Sher-
iff. Mr.. Heavey left nothing lindone to
win supporters to his candidacy and he
appeared justified in his claims that he
would at least make matters interesting
for the organization and its choice for
the nomination which he himself so ea-
gerly sought. Had Mr.. Heavey carried
ward or two the Seymourites would
not have been surprised. They did not
anticipate the walkoyer that the result
Off the vote has shown. Not only did
Mr.. Heavey not carry a single ward, but
he was defeated in his own polling pre-
cinct The Second Ward, in which Mr..
Heavey has resided the greater, part of
his life, remained loyal to the Drganiza-
tion. John Kenny and others of Mr..
Heayey's managers were confident they
would carry the ward. The hest they
could do was to secure a majority in
three of the, ten voting districts The
vote for Seymour in the other seven dis
tricts wiped out these majorities and the
ward went for Seymour by over 300.

Of his strength. This was the banner
ward for the organization, and after the
polls were closed and the result known
Mcbride went about declaring that the
ballots had not been honestly counted.
He made such absurd charges that even

his utterances.

Colonel Timothy Cagney, who was in
charge of the Heavey campaign in the
Eleventh Ward, hasn't fully recovered
from the shock he received when he read
the returns. He had been shouting from
tie house-tops that the sentiment was so
strong for Heavey in the Eleventh and
Twelfth Wards that the organization
would be swept off its feet. Lo and be-
hold, when the vote was counted Sey-
mour had a majority in every district
in both wards. In some of the districts
the Heavey vote was scarcely noticeable.

The contest between Seymour and Hea-
vey could have looked for result diff
'ferent from what the results show.
Whatever chance Mr.. Heavey had of
making favorable showing against the
organization was lost when he allowed
Alexander Simpson to assume charge of
his campaign. Simpsons unwarranted
and unjust attacks on Robert Davis
made votes for the organization, and this
accounts in measure for the failure Of
Mr.. Heavey to make as good showing
as an anti-organization candidate in Jer-
sey City as John Treacy made In his
contest for the Mayoralty nomilatio

OBJECT TO
PAYING TAX

The question as to whether the doc
tors in the Territory should pay an
annual tax of $40 has been brought to
head, and friendly suit will be
carried before the Supreme Court for
a decision that will settle the matter.
At a meeting of the Territorial
Medical Association last Saturday
evening the matter was discussed at
some length and a committee on legis-
lation was appointed, DR.. Cooper be-
ing the chairman.
1t seems that the last legislature
passed bill No. As, known as the Oste-
opathic Bill, taxing all osteopaths in
the Territory $40 per year, for the
reason that they were not considered
doctors. A rider was attached to this
bill, however, which added a tax of
$40 year for all doctors. Heretofore
physicians when they have taken out
their license have paid $40 as perpetu-
al tax, and accordingly they resent the
new law which they think is class leg
islatlon.
Chairman Cooper had an interview
with the Territorial Treasurer and as
result the latter will present a de-
mand to DR.. Mcdonald, who will repre-
sent the doctors in the case, to pay his
$40. This DR.. Mcdonald will refuse to
do. whereupon both sides will submit
briefs to the Supreme Court for judg-
ment.
The suit will be a friendly one, but
the doctors feel that the law is an I'M
just one and is class legislation. They
feel that they should not be obliged
to stand this extra tax when other
professional men are exempted, and
they do not think that the law was
made with the idea of having them
do SO.
A large number Of physicians have
received letters from the Territorial
Treasurer asking that they pay UP this
tax, but they will defer doing so until
the case is settled in the courts.

BRECKONS' AUTHORITIES
FOR CITIZEN LABOR OPINION

tion In exhaustive opinions the two
Federal Judges. who heard the case,
held the act to be void, not only as
being In conflict with the 14th amend.
ment, but also as being in conflict with
the treaty between the United States
and China.
In the Quong Woo case, decided by
Mr.. Justice Field in August, 1882 Q3th
Fed 229), n city ordinance admittedly
aimed against Chinese residents was
likewise held void, both as being I'M
lawful and unconstitutional and as con-
trary to the treaty.
In 1897 the State of Pennsylvania
enacted law imposing on every en-
ployer OF foreign born. unnaturalized.
male persons over q years of age, n
tax of 3 cents a day for each day that
each of such persons might be employ
ed, and authorizing the deduction of
that sum from the wages of the en-
ployes. Mr.. Justice Acheson, In pass.
ing upon the validity of the act, held
1t to be contrary to the 14th amend
ment and that 1t did not afford equal
protection OF the laws. csc Fed. 25S).
The Supreme Court OF Pennsylvania
arrived at the same conclusion con-
corning the act in the case of Juniata
Lime Stone Company VS.. Fagley, 1877
Pa State, 1893.
In number of cases to which 1t is
unnecessary to refer at length, courts
have held that laws permitting union
labor only to be employed on public
works are unconstitutional and void.
In the Parrot case above referred
to, the provision of the Chinese treaty
considered, was as follows:
Chinese subjects visiting or resid
ing in the United States, shall enjoy
the same privileges, immunities and
exemptions In respect to travel or resi-
dence, as may there be enjoyed by
the citizens or subjects of the most
favored nations"
Referring to this particular provi-
sion, Mr.. Justice Sawyer used this
language.
ANY legislation or constitutional
provision of the State of California,
which limits or restricts that right to
labor to any extent or in any manner
not applicable to citizens of other
foreign nations visiting or residing In
California, is in conflict with the pro-
visions of this treaty"
Practically the same ruling was made
by Mr.. Justice Field in the Quong
Woo case.
