So it is as regards Santo Domingo The chief material advantage that will come from the action proposed to be taken will be to Santo Domingo itself and to Santo Domingo's creditors. The advantage that will come to the United States will be indirect, but neverthe- less great, for it is supremely to our interest that all the communities i'm mediately south of us should be or be- come prosperous and stable and there fore not merely in S,me but in fact in. dependent and self governing.
 T call attention to the urgent need of prompt action on this matter. We now have great opportunity to secure peace and stability in the island with out friction or bloodshed by acting in accordance with the cordial invitation of the governmental authorities them- selves. It will be unfortunate from ev- cry standpoint if we fail to grasp this opportunity, for such failure will prob ably mean increasing revolutionary vio- lence in Santo Domingo and very pos sibly embarrassing foreign complica- tions in addition.

THOSE who still think that the
United States should abandon the
Philippines and leave the people there
to be prey Of the different factions
that are seeking control of the islands,
or to be taken by some European
power, should make haste to change
their minds. The Philippine islands
will soon be so thoroughly American
lied that even the natives will not
want to return to the old conditions.
A system of railroads is about to be
introduced that will aggregate about
1000 miles. Active construction of
the system will begin within year,
and bonds to the amount of $50, 900 900
are to be issued by the syndicate
which contracts for the building Of
these lines. The Philippine Govern
ment has not gone ahead with this
preliminary work without first being
assured that there would be plenty of
capital forthcoming to build the rail-
roads. 1t is expected eighteen or
twenty syndicates will submit bids
for the work. Assurances have been
received from financiers and capital
lists. OF course most of the supplies
will be imported from this country.

WHILE it might be considered a
compliment to have the editor of the
+" Banner " suggest that the Chroni-
cle-J erseyman has a new writer when
ever new idea is advanced in these
columns, the source of the criticism
prevents undue elation. We may be
pardoned for saying, however, that all
our comments on local affairs are pre-
pared in the office-m of being set
up from the case without the formali-
ity of writing itout. And the crafty
ing feature is that people are willing
to pay for the privilege of reading it,
hence it is not necessary for any one
connected with this Office to sell the
matter out of town, although our
neighbor and some of his fellow cor
respondents find our columns a profita-
BILE fleldfor news looting. We will also
say, once for all, that no one connected
with this office represents any other
paper.

THE report of the meetings of the
Board of Chosen Freeholders held this
week should be carefully read by all
taxpayers. The expenditures for coun-
ty expenses have increased to an enor-
nous extent during the last decade
yet the increase has been occasioned
by the provisions of reform laws, as in
the case of elections, care of county
charges, etc, augmented by road inn
provement. This increase was practi-
cally unavoidable. 1t is matter for
congratulation, however, that the af-
fairs of the county have been so wisely
managed that the budget for the COM
ing fiscal year will not only wipe out
all deficiencies, make provision for
taking the census and increase the
appropriation for the insane, but Is
81, $3.50 less than last year.

EXCEPTING those absent from the
city, Secretaries Hay and Wilson,
every member of the cabinet attended
the meeting at the White House Fri
day morning, the first for six weeks.
After receiving the congratulations Of
his advisers on the success of his trip,
the President entered at once with
them into a discussion of the various
matters of public business that have
accumulated during his absenc e.
Among other things considered was
an opinion rendered by Attorney-Gen-
eral Moody to the effect that the eight
hour law does not apply to work on
the Panama Canal. The ruling is es-
pecially gratifying to the President
and the secretary of war, as the con-
struction Of the canal would have
been seriously hampered had the com
mission been required to limit days
labor to eight hours.

HANOVER township is very much
exercised over the new school question.
The proposal to bond the township
and erect two school houses was voted
down at the meeting held last week.
but another meeting has been called
for the 25th. One thing is certain
that Hanover needs one or two good
school houses in the very near future.
With the railroad facilities in view
the township has bright future, but
new residents cannot be secured with
the present school facilities. One of
the first questions asked is what about
the schools, and one glance at the
Whippany or Hanover structure now
in use would turn the would be pur-
chaser or tenant to some other sec
tion.

ANOTHER Railway Reformatory
youth, aged 10 years, after less than a
months freedom, has robbed his bene-
factor and escaped with money, silver
ware and gold watch, the property
of Assembly Doorkeeper Morris, Of
Mercer county. OF course, there is
seldom anything heard Of the Railway
youth who have shown by their future
lives that they are really reformed,
and probably not all of those who
have returned to their evil ways after
being released from the Reformatory
are heard of, but the fact remains that
degenerates cannot be reformed. So
long as the latter are under subsection
they may be good, with view to
early liberation from confinement,
but it seems they are no sooner. at lib
erty than their natural proclivities
assert themselves. A truthful report
of the results of reformatory manage
ment Of institutions for first offenders
would make most interesting reading
for the philanthropic and humane, as
well as for taxpayers generally. AS
with the penitentiary parole system,
that of the reformatory shows up too
large a percentage Of failures. There
seems to be a disposition on the part
Of these parolled prisoners to regard
themselves as martyrs entitled to the
sympathy Of the community instead
'of feeling the stigma they have
brought upon themselves and their
families, and they pose in public
rather than go to work to build up for
themselves a reputation

In circular letter to the Board of
Health of Roselle Park, the State
Board of Health declares "that cere.
bro spinal meningitus must no longer
be considered as Infectious only, but
hereafter should be regarded as con
tagious." Despite the opinion of
some Of the physicians, which is CON
trary to this declaration, this circular
from the State Board of Health is
sufficient authority for all local health
boards to observe the precautions sug-
gested. 1T is to the credit Of the
Roselle Park Board Of Health that it
took the precautions advised before
the State board had replied to its in
Quiries.

ACCORDING to the statement of
President Washburn, of the National
Board of Fire Underwriters, the losses
sustained by the insurance companies
last year were unprecedented. The
aggregate Of the losses was 1929, 1885,
$50. The Baltimore conflagration was
not entirely responsible for last years
total, as, after deducting the s5O,O0o,-
600 loss sustained in that fire, there
was still an excess Of $2O,O0O,OOO over
the average for the past five years. In
the last four months of this year, there
have been seven CONGREGATIONS, with
loss in each case running from $500, 900
to S3,O00.O0O, fact that is OF startling
interest to those interested in fire in
Surance.
