THEY RESISTED OFFICERS.

Last night two men were placed
under arrest charged with drunken
ess. One named Barber, was dispos-
ed to act nasty indeed with the Of
ficers at the city jail. As Is the
usual custom Fire Chief Rogers ask
ed Barber to hold up his hands and
be searched The fellow refused to
do this and proceeded to violently
curse the officer. calling him all kinds
of names. He kept up his flow OF
curses and oaths and continued to
refused to obey the command and I'm
ally Mr.. Rogers had to proceed to
forcibly carry out his orders and
when he got through with the ugly
acting individual that gentleman was
perfectly willing to obey himself
This morning Barber and another
man arrested for being drunk and
disorderly and who was also inclined
TO be ugly. were arraigned before
Judge Sweeney and each was given a
fine of $1,000 and costs.

Everyone knows that E. H. Harrl-
man knows n whole lot about rail-
roads The reason everybody knows
it, is because Mr. Hartman has prov
en- that he does. To have accomplish
ed what he has in railroad building
and advancement. he must have made
1t life study. He is a business man,
not a lawyer. What he knows about
railroads is from actual contact with
them, not from theoretical deductions
Therefore, 1t is reasonable to believe
that what he said at the banquet in
Kansas City, where he was replied TO
by Secretary Root, on the question of
railroad ownership, was the result Of
wide experience. What Mr.. Root
does not know about railroads is
doubtless a whole lot, yet he answer
ed Mr.. Harriman's assertion that 1t
was not the business of the gov
ernment to operate railroads, with
the reply that. the government would
yet own the railroads. that 1t was the
logical outcome and asked Mr.. Har
riman to mark his language, which
he stated was bound to be the event
ual result.

In our judgment some of the talks
made by John d. Rockefeller. Jr, to
his Sunday school class, are nothing
more or less than assinine. The prin-
ciple subjects upon which the young
Rockefeller talks, seems to be those
which Justify his fathers and his
own wealth. Aside from this the
subjects have been those which would
proclaim to his hearers that they
should thank God because they are

the majority of those who attend the

self to every citizen having the true
interests of the town at heart. In the
light Of past experience it is to be pre-
sumed that the managers have count
ed the cost and are ready to devote the
thought, means and persistent energy
necessary to carry their plans to sue
cessful completion. OF course, as soon
as any forward movement is made that
threatens an increase in the tax~rate
or interferes with private interests
there will be determined opposition
that can only be overcome by persever-
ing work in arousing public sentiment
and cultivating civic pride. The time
has gone by when Morristown can
afford to overlook and ignore the condi-
tions that are turning people away
from the town, and no one should ap-
preciate this fact more than property
owners, as already there are indica-
tions Of a serious slump in values here.
Heroic remedies are needed and we
believe the people generally are ready
to back up any one willing to take the
responsibility of applying them.

to contract for any not required by

piled in neighborly and charitable

Jersey is to be sure that its own resi-
dents are secured all the water which
this State owns-which under the de-
cisions Of our courts includes all run
