School Closed.

The CIarksboro public school was closed
last Monday by an order of the township
Board Of Health. 1t seems that two cases
of scarlet fever, in separate families, broke
out on Friday, and the families were quor-
antined. The Board Of Education was toe
deliberate in the matter and when it was
proposed to open school Monday morning,
without fumigating the rooms the mothers
of the town became aroused and started the
papas, with the result that the Board Of
Health ordered the school closed for q
week, the house fumigated and closets
cleaned and made sanitary.
The Board of Education that treats
lightly the protests Of the mothers Of a
community ignores the power that moves
the world.

James Smith, Jr., Resigns.

In a letter to Chairman William B.
Gourley, of the Democratic State Com
mittee, held last Saturday, James Smith,
Jr., in the following letter, rendered his
resignation as member Of the committee.
He says
'My Dear Mr.. Gourley-I beg to tender
my resignation as member Of the Dem
ocratic State Committee, and in doing SO,
wish to express my appreciation Of your
courtesy to me, personally, and to pay
tribute to your able work as well as that OF
the committee in the interest," of our party.
THE Democratic party has honored me
greatly. By way of trying to make some
return for this, | continued an active
worker in the party's interests long after
the demands of my personal affairs made it
imperative that should devote my efforts
and strength exclusively to them. Business
cares continue to increase with the years
until at last it has become absolutely inn
possible for me to give any time to politi-
cal matters.
ssOf course, | shall never-can never
lose interest in our grand old party and
its efforts to give the public real republican
government. The outlook now seems
brighter than in many years, and in the
near future hope to be able to congratulate
you and your associates on succeeding in
bringing New Jersey back into the column
Of Democratic States. "

Stolen Horse Recovered.

Constable McCully, Of WilIiamstown,
made quick recovery of horse and buggy
stolen from Jacob Smith last Thursday
night, by George Burdsall. McCully had
heard Burdsall say that he once worked for
a liverman. at Rosemont Pa, so early on
Friday started for that place. When be
reached the livery stable the proprietor
had arranged to purchase the rig, worth
$3.50 for $loo, and was in the act Of draw
ing check Burdsall saw Mccully COM
ing and skipped through a back door.
There was brisk chase, but Burdsa
eluded his pursuers. MeCully took the rig
and reached Woodbury. Friday night on
his return home. AS he was about starting
next morning, he learned that BurSsall had
come to Woodbury. in the night and sur
rendered himself to Sheriff Wilson.

There seems to be a chance for the
farmers of New Jersey to get square with
the automobiiists. Not by compelling them
TO put oil or tar on the telford roads,
though they may succeed in securing this
improvement. Not in taxing motorists to
keep the roads IN repair. though, this, too,
may result from organized efforts on the
part of the agriculturists. Where the
farmer may actually find recompense for
all the annoyances caused by automobiles
is ia the raising of giant potatoes from
which denatured alcohol il made. The
Department of Agriculture has sent agents
to Europe to study this tuber. 1t is not
an edible potato. 1t seems to bear about
the same relation to ordinary potatoes that
large, coarse, quick growing vegetable,
capable Of yielding 800 gallons of denatured
alcohol to the acre and leave a residue that
may be fed to livestock. In Germany,
where these big potatoes are grown, the
large farmers haye their own distilleries
and make alcohol in considerable quanti-
ties; or dozen farmers will combine and
operate large distilling plant. Whether
the government would allow this or not
remains to be seen; but if the potatoes will
grow here and the farmers can produce the
alcohol, the automobilists will probably
abandon gasoline and buy from the farm
ers. All this, however, depends on the yet
unsettled question whether alcohol will do
all that gasoline now does. If it will, the
New Jersey farmers may yet get large sums
Of money out of the automobilists, and the
latter will be in better odor.
