Despite the severe frosts that we have
had and the unprecedented October
weather. the pyramid of different colored
geraniums, in front of Atkinson Carty s
blacksmith shop, stands out like Mars at
Perihelion. The flowers, which are in
pots arranged artistically on a wagon
wheel which is placed on a pole about ten
feet high, are pride of Mr.. Carty's heart;
and while obliged to climb a ladder to
water and care for them, delights in his
work.
The result of balloting in Mansfield
Township was the election of the whole
Democratic ticket with one exception.
While friends worked hard for their re
spective candidate, there was much split
ting done, and the results surprising. The
defeat of the Republican party can safely be
charged to the supporters of the Colby
movement The candidates for office on
the above ticket turned down the Colby del
egates at the promaries and for revenge the
latter threw their strength with the Demo
|craticparty. 1t hasn't been so long ago that
these very men were running for an office
and these candidates, they helped to de-
feat worked for and supported them when
they were in the political race Let us
look at the reformers for a minute. A
pack of sore heads determined to have an
Office by hook or crook. Spasmodic re-
form is force, but true reform is of a
steady. continuous growth, and the voter
who fails to discriminate between the true
and the false should be DISTINGUISHED.

SEVERAL years ago there was an investi
cation into state affairs and it was shown
that there had been great frauds on the
treasury. Steps were at once taken to
improve matters and the first thing done
was to abolish the custom of publishing
the laws There was no curtailment
in punishment for breaking the statutes.
nothing was done whereby there might
be mitigation of sentence owing to ignor-
ance of laws, nothing of the sort. simply
determination not to let the people of
the state have a knowledge of the laws
passed by their legislators. At the last
session of the Legislature there were i'm
portant statutes enacted, the tax law being
one of them. Many changes were made
in this particular instance, yet the laws
were not put out in pamphlet form until
last week, and then this county got q
limited number. What sense is there In
this way of doing business2 There may
not be any need of publishing laws which
are not general, but there should be some
system of wide dissemination of the
statutes which the people are expected to
obey and for the ignoring or violation of
which they are subjected to punishment

FOUNDER BRADLEY. of Asbury Park,
has enjoyed all these years nominal as
sessment on the large property holdings
that he has acquired by the bounty Of the
state and the patronage of its people
Mr. Bradley obtained the grant of all the
shore front at Asbury Park for . trifiing
sum, and 1t made him a very wealthy
man. The new tax law disclosed the real
value of the property he still retains at
the park after the sale of large property
interests to the municipality and to private
parties His assessment under the old
law was $4,000, a ridiculous figure. 1t
is now raised to nearly a million dollars,
which is below the actual value.
Mr.. Bradley has figured as pbilanthro-
pist to some extent, but when it comes to
paying taxes on an equality with his
neighbors. he becomes indignant. 1t II
not everybody that owns million dollars
of well paying property to pay taxes on
but the Founder does not look at it tha
way, and he forgets the public bounty
that made him rich. There could not b.
better vindication of the new tax Law
than founder Bradley's selfish rage agains
1t because he must now pay his just shar'
of the taxes. -NeUark AdUertis<r.
