The result BY districts Is as follows

1t will be noticed that the vote was
about half Of the ordinary vote at the
fall elections, but showing more inter-
est on the part of voters tnan at the
constitutional amendment elections.
It will probably stop the shout Of the
fearful opposition in Morristown to the
trolley. There are many people who
feel that the enthusiasts in favor of
the trolley coming here are doomed to
disappointment when the trolley be-
comes reality Others who think the
term too long, while still others say
that ten years from now the terms Of
the franchise will be declared to be too
easy for the company, but those who
feel ia this way have expressed the idea
that the trolley would come some day
and they were willing it should come,
but only worked to secure the best
terms possible.
1t is up to the trolley company.
1t has the franchise duly ratified.
Those who voted "yes are looking
for the road to be built at once, and it
remains for the company to secure the
county franchise and prosecute the
work if it expects to keep the good
will Of the people. Washington has
waited five years since the franchise
was taken up for cars to run; but the
patience Of the voters here is not prob
ably as long as that.

SOME CHURCH STATISTICS.
Relative Strength Of the Protestant
Denomination. in United States.

Relative Strength of the Protestant
Denomination. in United States.
According to the recently issued
year-books Of the denominations the
per cent. of gain in members for the
year 1905 was as follows Baptists,
2 $40; Congregational. 2-l0; Presby-
terians, 2 per cent; Methodist Episco-
pal Church, $40.
The Baptists added more than twice
as many by confession as by letter.
The Presbyterians added IL times as
many by confession as by letter; the
Congregationalists little more than
II times as many by confession as by
letter.
Its significant fact that while the
gain in the M. e. Church was less than
2 per cent. in the home field, it was 10
per cent. in the foreign field.
The total membership of the Bap-
fists in the United States is A, ,7O9, ,311 /;
Of the Methodist Episcopal Church,
3,148,2l1; of the Presbyterian Church,
l,l4S,46 of the Congregational
Chuch, 6S4,322.
InSunday schools the Baptists gained
II, 900 members; the Methodists S.
674, and the Presbyterians, ID, ,l99. The
Congregationalists lost 2,Sl4.
The large gain of the Baptists is
credited to the fact that their churches
in the South have been organizing
Sunday schools In churches which did
not have them before. In other words
they are catching up. No doubt the
loss in Congregational schools can be
nicely explained, but loss among the
young is something to think about.
On the financial side of church life
the Baptists raised for home expendit-
ures, S14,061, ,541; for foreign missions,
S627, $40; grand total, sl7, ,932, ,972. The
Presbyterian home expenditures were
SlS, 496, ,879, and contributions for for
eign missions, 81, O46, 1882 grand total,
S17, 7,05l,757. The Congregationalists
raised for home expenditures, SS, 49O,-
|2l2, and for foreign missions, s491, $3.50; /;
grand total, sll, ,564,61S.
The average contribution per mem
Der, for these objects, was Baptists,
$3.50; Presbyterians, S14.S3, and Con-
gregationalists, sl6.s5. The Presby
terians gave nearlyfour times as much
per member as the Baptists, and the
Congregationalists more than four
times as much.

Another Political Party Bobs UP and
Allies Itself with the Liquor Interest.
The formation Of a labor political
party in this State under the auspices
of the American Federation of Labor
was formally approved lasty eek by the
State Labor Convention. The affilia-
tion of laboring men Of New Jersey
with the present Socialist party was
voted down.
The employment of children in bake
ries during the night and the employ
ment of women and children In polish
ing and buting shops Of the State were
condemned. 1t was said that so per
cent of the deaths of buffers and pol
ishers was due to tuberculosis of the
lungs and that men were less affected
than women and children.
The Bishops liquor law was con-
demned because it has worked a
grave injury upon great number OF
wage-earners of our State, through
Throwing them out OF employment.
In the discussion it was asserted that
since the law took effect there had
been a falling off in the work of bar
tenders, walters and musicians In
Newark alone, it was said, that one
hundred musicians had been thrown
out of employment on Sundays and
the production Of cigars had fallen off
largely there, as we'll as in Paterson
and New Brunswick Evidently the
great saving to workinmen by the clos
ing of saloons is lost sight Of

The Lauter
Playerpiano

# you have not examined the
Lauter Playerpiano, you have yet to
see a truly marvellous instrument.
With this piano in the home, the non
playing music-loving family has at
command piano music Of every de-
scription.
With this piano anyone can play,
and play well without having musi-
cal knowledge, without necessarily
having given any attention to playing
by hand.
Scores of professional and business
men who have purchased a Lauter
Playerpiano declare that nothing could
induce them to give it up, that the
pleasure of being able to play every
composition that one may like and
Just as one likes to have it played is
real pleasure indeed, and one that is
enhanced with practice.
The best evidence of the value Of
this ideally beautiful instrument to-
those who purchase is that in a vast
number of instances we have taken a
practically new piano, Grand OF Up
right, Of the regular type in part pay
ment.

1t is now over two months since the
streets Of Summit received a treat
ment Of Lamson's dust preventive 7
and the more prominent thoroughfares
are only just hginning TO show signs
OF dust. This exceeds all expectations
of the street committee and but for
the heavy and constant rains almost
daily for the past month, the effect OF
the dust preventive would have
lasted several weeks longer. The
street committee is arranging to give
the streets one more treatment, which
it is expected will last for the remain
der of the season.

Practically
Two Pianos

The Lauter Playerpiano has the
constant charm of being an instru-
ment that is playable by hand, and is
also playable, through the use of pneu-
matte mechanism, with the aid Of
treadles and music-roll. 1t is really
TWO PIANOS COMBINED IN ONE
CASE.
The instrument can be played by
hand in the regular way, and when it is
SO played the treadles and music-roIl
are concealed.
It can be played by any non player
as already stated, and tempo and ex-
preston are entirely under the control
Of the operator, thus making possible
the production Of thoroughly artistic
music, making easy the rendition Of
the most difficult pieces with taste and
precision.
We invite you to see and play for
yourself this wonderful instrument.
We want you to come here and inves-
tigate its musical capabilities.
We can take your present piano
in part payment, and can arrange at
tractive monthly terms for the balance.

The Hillery-C Colby debate will come
of in the Lyceum tomorrow even
ing, starting at 5 O'Clock, or shortly

with no machinery to set it going and
no judges to decide upon the merits OF
the contestants. The idea is simply
to give Mr.. Hillery's constituents an
opportunity TO hear about his services
in the State Senate from fellow
member who on some questions was
opposed to him. The hearers will
judge each for himself as to the mat
ters presented, and all that is asked is
that everyone will give the speakers a
candid hearing and form their judg-
ments without prejudice.

result. Up to the sixth innings the
Brooksides had all their own way, then
the Bernardsvilles tied them. No
more runs were made till the twelfth
innings when Bernardsville, by a close
squeak, tailed the winning run. Con-
net pitched the first six innings and
did we'll considering that it was his
first game this season. Brown went
in the box in the seventh and was un-

scored but one run offhis delivery. The
game abounded with good plays and
was intensely exciting throughout.

The West Prosnerous.

Mr.. and Mrs. Samuel f. Beach re-
turned from their western trip last
Thursday, and it was a very enjoyable
affair for them. Mrs. Beach found
her brothers and families well and
prosperous, while Mr.. Beach is enthusi-
astic over the prosperity that abound
ed on every hand. The people out
there think that Bryan should not run
next year if he expects to win out on
the conditions that prevailed when he
ran before. Farm land out in that
section is worth much more than it is
in the East. Mr.. Mccormack, a broth
er-in-law Of Mrs. Beach, who went to
Missouri thirty or forty years ago and
bought land for three and half dol
lars an acre now has nearly thousand
acres that is worth eighty dollars an
acre. 1t produces fine crops with
out fertilizing, his alfalfa fields yield
ing Ave crops in the year. The
farmers there are many of them col
lege graduates and we'll informed on
all subjects, and farm on scientific
principles. They are interested in
