We WOULD remind the sweet
Spirit of the Valley, with all the
soltness of our soul, that we asked
permission of it to correct our fg.
ures on the Shepherd defalcation,
since it had allowed its candidate
Judge Lewis to revise his figures.
But the Republican organ has passed
unnoticed our amends. 1t says that
Judge Lewis used the figures $3.50
upon the authority of Mr.. Willard
In the early stages of the campaign;
and we innocently quoted the same.
For the Spirits benefit we will put
the amount at $37, 900, and sincerely
hope the dear sheet will not hold us
to the rack for the few odd cents.
Incidentally we might remark that
we have more than once reproduced
Mr.. Swanson's speech, using the
figures $4,000. So there now.

WHILE the WORLDS ewes bava

WHILE the worlds eyes have been,
and are still, on Russia and Japan,
some eight or ten small "scraps" are
going on in Europe, Asia and Afri-
Ga. The most important and dis
tressing of these is the continued
wholesale slaughter of Christians
within the Turkish domains. The
Turk is a blot on civilization, and
until the Powers eschew politics his
crimes will continue to reach up to

The trouble with most of our
millionaire philanthropists is that
they make their gifts to wealthy
churches or institutions that are not
for the poor and lowly. Unlike the
majority, DR.. John Barnado, the
great philanthropist who died in

Aent to his memory about one han
bred institutions for orphan waits,
which ne founded. 1t is said that
through his efforts thousands of
such children have become respect
able citizens of England.

The villain of the scene has APP.
peared on the souvenir postal card.
Leather, wooden or no other card but
pasteboard one will be transmitted
through the mails, and only such of
these as are decent. The govern.
ment is considering the discontinue
ance of all souvenir cards, because
the foil mind has transcended all
laws of decency as to what pictures,
Inscriptions and insinuations are
printed on them. A good, harmless
and pleasant little initiative may be
spoiled because of some wicked folks.

Dock Commissioners Patterson an
nounced that he had awarded the con-
tract for the building of the Staten Island
ferry terminal pier at st. George to f.
B. Spearin of the firm of Spearin & Pres.

Commissioned also said that May 20 had
been set as the date for launching the
ferryboat Richmond, to be used in the
Staten Island service. The launching
will be at the Port Richmond yard of the
Buileigh Shipbuilding Company.
The Comm i~ssioner is in a dilemma
over the prospective appointments which
he must make to the posts of Superin-
tendent of Ferries and Assistant Superin-
tendent. The posts have been created
by the Board of Estimate and the Alder
men, the first place to have a salary Of
81, 600 and the second SO. 500. with power
to have the first place raised later to
s. 600 and the SECOND to 81. 500. As there
are no civil service lists, and as the
Commissioner does not know how he is
to determine the ability of q man to han
die the executive management of a muni-
cipal ferry service. he is wondering
where the men are coming from.

MONMOUTH co. TROLLEY

Red Bank, May l2:-The Monmouth
County Electric Railway Company has
revived the project to continue its road
from Red Bank to Oceanic and posi-
bly, to Seabright. Such an effort was
made some years ago, soon after the
trolley company completed its road
from Red Bank to Long Branch, but
there was such II general objection
that the scheme was abandoned fol
the time.
Since then the Fair Haven and
Oceanic road has become the property
OF the county, and ii is believed that
it will be comparatively easy for the
railway company to secure OF the
Board'o Freeholders.
The people in Oceanic and Fair
Haven are clamorous for the trolley.
They o have to depend on stage
lines to reach Red Bank, where they
do most of their shopping.
1t is proposed to resort to the aban-
doned spur of the road in West street
as ii connecting track with the new
track which will run in Front street
and thence to Fair Haven and Oceanic.
The West street spur was utilized
when the cars ran to Bedford over the
old Southern Railroad bridge.
