for s~teadying and developing moral
conduct. If Atlantic City with a pop
ulation scarcely more than one-third
that of Camden can raise 100000
for a Y. M. c. A. building, why can't
this city do as well?"
When the movement is ripe, there
is little doubt but that the same ac-
tivity can be shown in this city. A
Y. M. G. A. is a public necessity, if
the young men of this city are to be
properly cared for and it must come.
Bear in mind, when it is started it
must be complete. There must be a
building with all the equipment nee
essary to interest and hold the young
men. The time is not far distant
when Perth Amboy will be with
Atlantic City in it's efforts to estab-
fish a Y. M. G. A.

No More State Taxes.

Five acts passed by the New York
legislature and now signed by Gov
ernor Higgins entirely abolish direct
state taxes in New York for the first
time in sixty-five years. AS Cover
o Higgins says in a memorandum
filed with the signed bills the direct
tax this year would have been about
five million dollars. Not since the
year 1871 has the state been enabled
to meet it's necessary expenses with
out imposing a direct state tax. The
governor shows that if it were not
for the policy of indirect tax for state
purposes landowners would bear
practically the entire burden of state
as well as local government. Cover
nor Higgins says:
This result has been accomplished
without c~urtailing the necessary e
penditures of the state for schools,
charities, hospitals, prisons and the
like, and in the face of unusual nee
essary appropriations this year, re-
fleets upon the financial system of
the state which is o fairly estab-
lished."
There has been no state tax in
New Jersey since 1884, when the
state was enabled to dispense with it.
For several years the state govern
ment has been administered in a way
to enable the state to help pay Local
taxes by direct contribution of mon
ey. The contribution by the state
has amounted to about a million dol
lars a year, and will now be much
larger. Newark Advertiser. e.

SATURDAY, NAY rs.
OPEN

The bridge question now turns to
the freeholders and the people look
to them to open the structure for
traffic. Excellent legal authority has
been secured to show that the county
can throw the bridge open for public
use whenever the officials say so and
If the freeholders fix upon Decoration
Day as the time, it should be carried
out.
Mr.. Bloomfield, whose writ seems
to be the main bone of contention,
has declared that there is nothing to
pervent the bridge being used. He
says the contractors cannot tie up the
structure and he has legal authority
to back him. Lawyers, independent
of Mr.. Bloomfield, have declared the
same thing, therefore, as Mr.. Bloom
field was the man who was expected
to make trouble, it is up to the free
holders to make good.
AS to paying for the structure,
that is a different matter. As long
as the writ does not interfere with
the use of the bridge let's use 1t and
fight about paying for it later.
There is no doubt but that there
is ground enough for a fight and If
Mr.. Bloomfield can show up any graft
or bad dealings, the people of the
county will be with him. In fact the
people should assist him in every
way possible. 1t is to the peoples
interests to save all the money posi-
BILE and to prevent paying twice as
much for a thing as it is worth.
Everyone knows the history of the
bridge and will welcome any move
ment to hunt the rascals out and put
them in Jail, if it can be done, but,
in the meantime, give us the bridge.
If there is nothing to hinder the
opening of the bridge, let's open it.
The people have been hearing about
graft and such things since 1902, but
now the bridge is finished and they
want to usei it. At the present stage
of The game itsseems to be up to the
freeholders.

The Board of School Estimate is
justified in planning for a school
building of thirty rooms in New
Brunswick avenue, west of the city
hospital. This is the direction in
which the city is growing and it is
there where the accommodations
will be needed the most within a year
or two. TO build sufficiently at the

EDITORIAL COMMENT.
A Just Cause Defeated.

That Mr.. Close should decide to
abandon his shrievalty contest is nei-
Their unnatural nor unwise. Since the
decision of Justice Hendrickson,
granting a certificate of election to

stroy the opportunity to hold Mr..

flee after a supreme court judge had
decided in his favor, was a hardship.
1t is a defect of just and equitable
procedure and if it is, the law should
be modified in the interests of fair
elections and good government.
OF curse Mr.. Close does not pro-
pose to expend a small fortune in
further combating Mr. Francis seat.
A competent court has held that Mr..
Francis was not elected to the office
by a majority of the legal votes cast
at the last election. Upon this deci-
sion, Mr.. Close will rest his case with
the people, confident that the JUS
tice of his cause is. fully recognized
In the county. He will leave to Mr.,
Francis the profits of the Office, be-
cause to establish his claim by long
and doubtful procedure, opposed at
every turn by a determined political
ring completely ~entrenched in power,
he will stand about the same chance
for even justice within the next three
years as a democratic candidate
stands to be elected sheriff when the
ballots are marked with blue pencil.
Mr.. Francis may now rest secure in
his Office, but we doubt If his con
science is ony more comfortable than
the conscience of Mr.. Close who goes
into voluntary retirement. We are OF
the opinion also that Mr.. Close will
some day receive more substantial
recognition of his pilfered rights by
the voice of Monmouth's democratic
voters.-Asbury Park Press.

CURFEW IN RAILWAY.

Railway has set a wise example in
passing a curfew ordinance to keep
children off the streets at night dur
ing the summer months. If other
towns and cities would follow sui
there would not be so many unhappy
homes as at present.
The Railway curfew ordinance pro
vides that no child under siXteeT
shall be on the street between 8 p
m. and--5 am. during April, May
June, July, August and September o
each year, and between s p. M. ant
5 a. m. the succeeding months unless
accompanied by parent or guardian
Curfew is to ring for twenty sec
onds at the hours named.
The penalty for violating the ordi-
nance will be not less than 81 OF
more than $50, or imprisonment fol
not less than n day or more than
thirty days. The police are author
lied to arrest without warrant any
child found at large during prohibit
ed hours.
Bed is the proper place Tor every
child under sixteen years of age after
9 O'Clock at night and parents, if they
care anything at all for their chill
dren, would save themselves much
worry il they conformed strictly with
such a rule. Railway is bound to be
a great deal better place as a result
of the ordinance and men who are
looking for a safe place for their
families as well as an attractive sub
urb, will doubtless give Railway the
preference. There is no reason why
a borough should not pass ordinances
to protect it's coming generations as
well as to protect and regulate every
thing else pertaining to a municipal
ity.

The people of Spain cordially com
mend Alfonso for selecting a hearty,
healthy, rosy English lass rather than
one of the weaklings of his own race.
The royal family of Spain is so inter-
married that each one is related to all
the others in seven or eight different
ways There have been five royal mar
riages between the two Bourbon fami-
lies during the last one hundred years,
and if there is anything in the old
theory that nature abhors the union of
relatives, the blood of the dynasty
must be very much diluted
King Ferdinand of Spain and his
brothers married sisters, their own
nieces. Another sister married King
Louise Philippe of France Isabella,
the daughter of Ferdinand, married
Francisco d'Azzizi who was her cousin
on both sides. His father was her I'M
Gle and his mother was her aunt by
blood, and all of her children married
their first cousins. No member of the
royal family Of Spain has married any
body but cousin for more than CEN
fury, except Alfonso XII, when he
married Queen Christina.
The bride little realizes what she has
coming to her. She has lived a free
and happy life, unfettered by etiquette
and formalities and has been able to
go and come and to see and do as she
pleased, like other English girls. When
she enters the great marble pile that
shelters the Bourbon dynasty of SPAIN
however, all this will be changed, and
her daily conduct will be governed by
rules and presidents that will be
very trying to her English spirit.
Nowhere is there such formality; no
where is there so much etiquette; no
where so little liberty of action. The
queen-mother has already withdrawn
to quarters in the farther end of the
palace, which is a monstrous building
and one Of the finest in Europe, so as
to leave the young couple free to oc-
cupy the royal apartments which have
been newly furnished for the bride.
Her first experience will, Of course,
be i'm the midst of excitement, and for
a week every moment Of her time will
be occupied by the wedding ceremo-
mails Her first public appearance ar
ter the wedding win be at the grand
banquet given to the diplomatic corps
on the evening of the wedding. She
will preside at a dinner Of 100 persons
i'm the finest state dining room In Eu-
rope. These bauquets, like everything
else about the palace at Madrid, are
conducted after the most rigid rules.
They have been the same for a CEN
fury or more, and "a description OF one
win answer for another, except so far
