A yineland Referendum

Vineland used TO be the New Jersey
paradise. Used 10 be? Is. For where
the referendum is. there is paradise. The
Hon. JOHN V. J.. PIERsoN Of Vineland
says that the time has come for show
ing of hands, He wants 1000 daily
papers TO show their hands as 70 national
purchase or building Of railroads and
telegraph lines and national express
service He asks 10000 editors TO pub
lish his catechism or referendum. Do
YOU? &c. Whether you favor or oppose,
let Mr.. PIERsoY know, and keep the Vine
land P. o. busy
IF public opinion indicates that $40
would be a more acceptable rate for a
5000 mile journey than the present $50
rate, says Mr.. PIERsoN or the Vinetdnd
Independent, which is the original home
Of his referendum, we will know how
TO proceed 10 get what we want and let
the blessed sunshine in. There needs
no referendum to prove that the public
had rather pay $40 than $50 for a 5000
mile journey II would be still moro
preferable il the railroad would pay each
passenger $50. Will the Government
promise TO do that? The financial prob
lem Is easy:
10 you favor payment in legal tender notes OF
the one, nve and ten dollar denominations: Teeeiv-
able for all dues both public and private and
backed by the entire properly and labor OF the
nation for redemptlon'-
You can pay for anything in that way
and still have backed" money in your
pocket.
The VinelGnd Independent is edited by
the Hon. JOHN J. STREETER, Populst
without guile and a thinker without fear.
We can't agree, however with one part
Of his personal platform:
Eight houu for sleep, eight hours for work,
eight hours for recreation. The day IN which these
propositions are made operative may Justly there
after at lts annual recurrence he celebrated as
Liberty Day. day In which aocrulng claims shall
cease for a period OF i;S term, legal holiday, a
holy day
" Eight hours make too long a working
day. As much time as you choose for
sleep, the rest for recreation, and let
every day be Liberty Day.
Another old but excellent financial
proposition is contained in this letter
from Branohville, Ala:
Il see 10 your paper an advertisement In regard
10 loaninr money without interest. feel con.
ndent that It would be great blessing to the poor
iaborlnE man. l hope that your paper will give
more information In regard TO IT,
SO say we all Of us. Why should any
body labor or be poor so long as he is
able TO borrow without interest? Gvery
inhabitant Of the United States should
be backed by the entire property in the
United States.

Of this atmosphere was, nobody ever
seemed able to tell There would seem
10 be atmosphere enough in Carnegie

that IL must be sought in Europe.
This feature OF musical training has

orchestras are TO admit the pupils Of the
school 70 their reheaTsals, and they
will also have the right TO attend re-
hearsals Of other musical performances.
In addition to these privileges they are
to hear concerts given for their benefit
in the private hall OF their school by the
instructors and other musicians. They
will be able to hear music at all times and
be among musicians.
Capable teachers have existed before
in this country, and in only few eK-
ceptonal cases has it been necessary for
American students to travel to Europe
in search Of instruction. These students
always pursued. however, the elusive at
mosphere. Now the atmosphere is TO be
available here, and American musicians
can study in their own land and not be
bereft Of its advantages.

Of three Commissioners, to be appoin,ei
By the Mayor. Their salaries will be $4,000

the city TO the use Of Ulster county pro-
vides that tho plans Of the new board may
either be modified or rejected by the Board

mission, and that the towns and villages
OF Ulster and Westchester counties may

Of three citizens Of the United States and
residents Of the city Of New York, one Of

What large city has a water front which
rivals New York's 1856 miles in the FIVE bor-
oughs?
From the city line on the Hudson below
Yonkers 70 the Battery, there is a water line
Of 10 miles; on the Harlem, betwe an Man
haitian and The Bronx, 6 miles. The eastern
and southern boundaries Of The bronx in
clude a water line Of 20 miles, and the water
line which extends from the north boundary
Of Queens on Long Island Sound 70 lie south

the whole Of the East River and some dis
tanoe on the Atlantic is 80 miles. The bound

miles. The entire water front Of New York

from New York 20 Troy.
The oonfgurstion Of New York Is such
that part Of its water boundary is the At
lantic Ocean, another part is the Long Island
Sound, another part is Newark Bay, and
the Hudson and East Rivers complete these
boundaries.

The result will be a staff equal TO any in

abroad to study music.
This could be maintained with as much

ton are at hand. It's students are to DO
