On the other hand, if the people
of any locality desire improvements
and are willing to pay for them in
taxes no one should interfere with
them. The people at home know
their own affairs and the require
ments much better than a few men
from all sections of the state assem-
bled at Trenton.
The state legislature, however,
seems to think the people are. not
capable of solving, local problems for
themselves and therefore laws are
passed regulating municipal taxation.

sort of thing and let the people gov

A ii TREES.

One regrettab1e feature about paw
ing a street is the number of shade
trees that have to be sacrificed.aWhen
it comes to a choice between trees
and a pavement it is a question which
is the most desirable, especially on
residential streets. 1t takes years to
grow a tree and to deliberately cut
down a whole row in a half a day
seems a crime. A pavement is meant
to improve a street, but when 1t is
necessary to lose the trees in order to
it, there is a question whether
the street is improved or not. q
The latest sacrifice of this kind is
on Market, street between State and
High streets. The new curb line is
in so far that it passes : directly
through all the trees on the north
side 0r the street and unless some
thing can be done to prevent 1t, all
these trses, with 'Fhheir Wwelcom6r
shade in the hot summer days, must
come down. 1t would seem that it
would be better to have the pave
ment a foot or two narrower between
the blocks mentioned. The difference
would noS be noticed nearly as much
as the loss of, the trees. g,
Spare the .fSees wherever possible.
1t is the shade taat plays the greatest
part in making the city beautiful.

TO WRITTEN CLOTHES.

1T is never necessary for harmful
washing solutions to be used in order
to facilitate the laundering of cloth
es, for there are several things that
can be added to the water which will
quickly eradicate dirt, make the
washing easier and will not injure
the fabric.
Kerosene is n of the best clothes
whiteners and is perfectly safe to
use. 1t is, especially good for clothes
that have been hanging for a long
time and become yellow.
For ordinary purposes use but a
tablespoonful of kerosene to a gallon
of water.
In, the event of garments being
very much soiled, an emulsion made
from equal parts of kerosene, clear
lime water and turpentine shaken un-
til creamy, is invaluable.
Only n cupful of the mixture
should be. added :. to a ~boilerful. OF
clothes. They should be kept over
the hre for half an, hour. s.
In the case of mems jumpers, over,

is invaluable. ~ MI S3F7T9

HrLLERY. TAX LAwtssIUDDLE.

E .fNF- A . = WI .s~-a .as 10
That the state legislature is dab
bling entirely too much in local af-.
fairs is becoming more and more evil
dent. The republican party seems to
be endeavoring to ce~ntralize every
thing, as nearly as possible, under
one head. The state is passing laws,
and appointing commissions which,
take the power away from the vari-
GUS municipal bodies, and the federal
government is Selling the functions
of the state.
The old doctrine of state rights
was wiped out by the civil war and
we would not return to it under any.
consideration, yet the individuality
of the state government and of the
cities and towns should be preserved,
and the people,, as nearly as possible,
should be allowed to rule directly,
By this is (meant more particularly,
the increasing tendency of the. state,
legislature to pass laws regulating,
purely local affairs and in which only
thk people in their several localities:
ARE concerned.
One of the latest examples of this
! is the Hillery maximum tax law. 1t.
begins to look as if meddling in local
taxation matters was going to cause
Sail kinds OF trouble. The law pro-
les that the tax rate in any locality
for 1906 shall not exceed the rate for
1905. In spite of this there~are thir-,
ty or more taxing districts where this
clause in the law is violated.
The tax rate. on first class railroad
property is fixed by 6btaiiiagsthe av5
erage from all the taxings Districts in;
the state. But, if the rates in some
of the taxing districts are illegal,
surely the average, in which the lille.
gal ones are included, must also be.
Illegal. This leaves a big l%oophole'
for the railroads ITO refuse 10 pay the,
average tax rate on the ground that.
some of the local tax rates, used in.
obtaining the~9average, are not ac4
cording to the law. That the state
authorities realize the seriousness of.
this matter is evident from the fact
that the attention of Attorney Gener-.
al McCarter has been called to it.
1t is under the Hillery tax law that.
the counties have been burdened by.
