From the date Of its organization up to
the present time, says the Newark Nescs,
"The Public Service Corporation, with an
authorized capital of $25, 600, 900, half of
which is issued and outstanding, and with
arrangements made for the issuance of the
remaining $12, 5000, 900 at an early date,
has not paid one dollar in taxes, either to
the state or the local city government. This
condition, according to Secretary Mcguire,
Of the State Board Of Assessors, is so far as
the State is concerned, due to the fact that
doubt exists as to the real status Of the
Public Service, that is whether it should be
assessed as a public utility corporation,
using the streets and subject to the fran
chise tax law on its gross receipts,u Or simply
as corporation, subject only to tax on
its capital stock issued and outstanding
under the corporation tax act of 1884,"
Mr.. Mcguire don't mind making the
State Board Of Assessors appear ridiculous,
but we submit that if this Board hasn't
reached some conclusion, right or wrong,
in three years. it ought to be abolished. Its
more useless that the State Board of Ar.
bitration.

Dear Sir: Would yon rather have your
customers speak Of your shoes as wearing
we'll, as not running down at the heel, as
turning water, and take a shine; or wag
their heads and say nothing?
We'd rather haYe ours, at long intervals,
say: We want some more paint, and we
want Deyoe We know it isn't in human
nature to paint very often; we don't expect
them to come very often; don't want 'em
to- All we want is to paint what they
have to paint, whenever they paint it; the
longer the time, the surer they are to come
back There's business enough in the
world; there are houses enough to paint;
let 'em take their time.
If we were shoemaker, we'd make
shoes to last half lifetime, and shoe the
whole town.

without any disposition to cOmplioatt

Without any disposition to complicate
matters, we give publicity to the sugges-
tion of one Of our county's most substan-
tial citizens, that if Sheriff Wilson is in
eligible as Chosen Freeholder, what be-
comes Of Coroner Ledden The Coroner is,
in legal status, parallel, if not above, the
Sheriff, because he is the only off ial who
can serve a legal process on the herif,
hence it occurs to our esteemed S. Z. that
inquiry should be extended to the status Of
the Freeholder from Elk.
These are exceedingly important ques-
tions, and in their settlement law, not poll
tics, should rule.

The Cry Of "Graft.

1t is an exceptional city. a fortunate
county, and rare State from which
the cry Of graft is not raised in its official
life-in which the administrative bodies are
SO clean that no citizen is warranted in de-
ductions rejecting on the official conduct
Of any public servant.
And who can say that such deductions
are not warranted when investigation al
most always establishes guilt, and the love
of illicit money seems to be as strong in
the United States Senator and the $780,,
O00-a-year life insurance President as in the
s. per diem Chosen Freeholder, or the
purely honorable membership in City
Boards
In the investigation now in progress into
the official conduct of Ocean county affairs
the grating disease seems to have inoccu-
lated the entire bunch. Graft was scaled
from the wage rolls as well as purchasers
Of materials business men who furnished
supplies as we'll as the Freeholders got
their share-and to such an extentswas the
system carried that 81, 900 bridge cost the
taxpayers So, 900. These were not every
day thieves-men without standing in the
community-or devoid Of intelligence or
substance, but men who in their private
dealings had earned regulations for
honesty, and had no pressing need for the
money
There must bea secret for conditions like
this, and it occurs to us that the illegal
use Of large sums Of money in politics is at
the root Of the evil, and once launched the
graft craft sails on until disgrace overtakes
those who launched it. All is smooth
sailing until the grafters become careless
and faunt their sin, then the public be-
comes aroused, investigation follows and
guilt is established. That is the usual
record.
Is there a remedy We believe the bill
now before the legislature offers one. It
requires publicity Of election expenditures,
and leaves innocent Of crime the person
who informs in case Of bribery Another,
and one that we believe would be fully as
effective, would be for the honest people Of
every community to vote against the candi-
date who started money campaign for any
Office, high or low.
Another remedy is to investigate every
reasonable charge Of graft, and visit on the
guilty the full penalty Of the law. LET
there be punishment, too, for him who
makes the change to crafty malice, or for
purposes Of revenge.
Another remedy is publicity. Every
official statement Of public expenditure
should show TO whom and for what purpose
expenditures were made.
II this cry Of graft is 70 go on and on,
and effort to detect the wrong doers be
the exception rather than the rule, She next
generation will surely be more reckless
than the present, and to fill a public office
Be more Of disgrace shan an honor.

The hearing was given on two sen.
ate bills-No. 81, by Senator Freling-
huysen, and No 81, by Senator Jack
son. Mr.. Frelinghuysen's bill regu-
lates and defines motor vehicles an9
makes the assistant secretary Of state
commissioners Of motor vehicles. 1t
also provides for examination of driv
ers Of motor vehicles before being
granted certificates, for registration by
horsepower and also the appointment
of inspectors. It also provides for ar
rest without warrant.
Senator Jaclkson's bill is a supple
ment to the act defining motor vet
hicles and prohibits persons under
eighteen from operating them.
The hearing, it is thought, may re-
suit in some slight notifications of
either the Frelinghuysen or the Jack
son bill by the committee.
A great part Of yesterday was taken
up with continuation of the hearing
on the two Morris canal abandonment
bills. The advocates of the Mills meas

the canal under fairly easy terms, and
the supporters Of the Parker measure,

resumed on the canal or the water
ways charter be revoked, are fighting
hard for their respective measures, but
no inkling has vet been given as to
what disposition viii be made of the
bills.
There was q hearing at noon yester-
day on the new bills aimed at corrupt
election practices and also hearing
on the bill for the Incorporation Of

"Aly home all at skies and seyens upon

eve talked the matter over and, deciding that
man servant, although nthought of do-
parture in our house. could not fail TO be an
improvement upon our past experiences with mis-
sister, for nothing could be worse than that,
we sent word TO send him out So William cane
and his advent is a red letter day in the calen
dar Of my housekeeping experiences.
"He entered quietly upon his duties and al
though treating all with due respect did not
seem to stand in OF us. He seemed to feel
! that as long he was going to live in our
house it was to his benefit we'll as ours to
make it as homelike as possible.
! Not a word was said about days out, or the
number of children. or how extensively we en-
terained or anything of the sort. William mere.

erations.
"The way he shook rugs, swept dust out of
| longneglected corners, scrubbed floors, shined
the pans, stood at attention for orders, prepared
the meals and withal presented cheerful face,
warmed the cookies of my heart and made me
vow that it would be only the man servant in
our home forever more"
The experience of this little woman was mani
folded many times by that of others who have
been fortunate enough to discover the man

They all tell story, these women who
have solved the servant problem with a man,
