time has been posing al n champion
Of the temperance cause, travelling
from town to town and state to state
on the questionable reputation she
then made, delivering lectures and
reaping the shekels OF the curious who
we're willing to pay 10 cents each to
listen to her %harangues. Her mania
for destroying saloon property has af-
forded her the opportunity of posing
as a martyr to the temperance cause,
and she probably has seen the inside
of more jails than any other living
woman.
Tuesday was election day and, the
saloons being closed, Mrs. Nation had
no opportunity to WELD her famous
Ratchet on the bar fixtures of the sa-
looms of Red Cloud.
Mrs. Nation delivered two lectures
at the NJ. f.. church during her stay,
one i'm the afternoon and one in the
evening, both of which were we'll at
tended. Her talks consisted i'm the
main Of "a TRADE against the Republi-
can party, including President Roose-
welt and. as is usual wherever she APP
pears, the temperance cause was in.
iured more than it was benefited.
She succeeded in disposing of a num-
Der of miniature hatchets at fancy
prices.
Mrs. Nation is a typical Kansas
freak, but differing entirely from
Jerry Simpson, Mary Ellen Lease
Annie Diggs, ct al, in that the latter
we're possessed of brains.
Mrs. Nation left Wednesday morn
ing for the east.

Penalty fer Refusing to List Property.
Many people do not understand that
the new tax law provides a penalty for
refusing to list their property with the
assessor. The section covering the
case is as follows:
"Section 55. refusal to list.)-In
every case where any person shall re-
fuse to make out and deliver to the
proper deputy assessor the statement
required under this act, or shall re-
fuse to make and subscribe to any of
the oaths or affirmations required, the
deputy assessor shall proceed to IS
certain the number of each descrip-
ton of the several enumerated articles
of property and the value thereof;
and such deputy assessor shall make a
note of such refusal in a column op-
posite the persons name, and the
county assessor shall add to such val
uations, when returned by the deputy
assessor, fifty per centum on the value
returned"

EDITORIAL COMMENT.
For a City Beautiful.

Newark might borrow an idea tina
has been carried out in the city o
Portland, Oregon, by it's public-spirit'
ed citizens. Our city is undeniabl.
dirty. The cost of cleaning the
streets is large, and the results arr
poor and unsatisfactory. Now, il
Portland, the people have volunteer
ed in a movement for a general clean
ing up, and it will be prosecuted I'M
til all the accumulated refuse is got
ten rid. The Portland Oregoniar
says:
Beginning promptly at one O'Clock
yesterday afternoon willing hands
joined with the volunteer leaders Of
the movement in each ward, and Ions
before the hour of rest arrived cart
load after CARLOAD of refuse had beer
carried from repositories of several
months standing to the different
dumping grounds selected by the gen.
eral committee, or was burned. y y =

child and disfigured it for life? OF
course all the boys. would have been
sorry, but would that do the infant
any good? Suppose the baby had an
eye put out or had lost its life, would
all the sorrow in the world undo the
damage that had been done? The
explanation that it was an accident
would not do, for the accident could
easily have been prevented if the
boys had used a little judgment and
had gone to the open lot for their
sport. ~
This is only an instance, but it
covers the point and tends to show
that there should be some other
place besides the street for such
games. Let the children make all
the noise they want to, provided there
is no serious sickness in the neigh
borhood, for it Is good for them. Ev-
eryone rejoices to see the boys and
girls romp and play. They are young
but once, and all too soon they must
~
take up the tolls of life, but let the
play be within bounds and not to the
annoyance and danger of any one
else.
OF course there are instances
where no open lot is available, but
this can hardly be said of Perth AM
boy. With a little attention any lot
can be made into a suitable play
ground. Perth Amboy is lacking in
parks, but it is not so much built up
but that children can find some other
place than the street for ball games
and shooting matches. Cruel, in
deed, is anybody who would rob the
boy or girl of any fun they can get
but there are proper places and APP
propriate times for it, however, and
these should be respected.

There is a civic spirit, indeed. And
that is the kind of spirit we would
like to see awakened in Newark. A
movement of that kind once started
in our city would be catching, and
the board of works would be infused
with it to the extent of hiring stout
arms to do the city's work of street
cleaning. Private premises would be
cleaned up, and the board of health
would discover nuisances that are
now overlooked Factory owners
would take a pride in covering up
their factory walls with running
vines and converting neglected tracts
into pretty lawns. More power would
be given to the elbow of the shade
tree commission. There would be
adornment as we'll as cleanliness to
make Newark a city beautiful. There
are good citizens of Newark who feel
it their duty to reform something,
and reform, like charity, should be-
gin at home.-Newark Advertiser.

Senator Hillery has challenged
Senator Colby to a series of debates
when he goes into Morris county and
it is understood that Senator Freling-
huysen will do likewise in Somerset
county. The report is that each one
of the machine senators will chal-
lenge the reformer when he appears
in their respective counties. Colby
says the more the merrier. That's
the ticket. When he comes to Mid
dlesex we will expect Jackson to hurl
out the challenge, but we fear he
will not. No, Colby knows Jackson's
record all too well and the Middlesex
boss man will be hiding in his shell
until Colby goes away. He will,

THURSDAY, MAY 81.
PLAYING IN THE STREET

Several interesting letters have ap.
peared in the NEWS lately on the
subject of boys playing in the streets,
and more particularly the handling
of firearms. There are extremes in
all things and we do not believe that
those who oppose boys carrying rifles
have a single i'll will against the
youngsters, in fact there is every rea-
o to believe that those who would
take the rifle from the boy would do
so solely for the boys personal ben
eft.
The streets are for public use and
no person should be made to feel that
he takes his life in his hands when
he ventures upon them. True, the
automobile is the greatest cause of
complaint and every means should
be made to compel the drivers of
these machines to respect the law.
The boy, however, with his bat and
ball, football, rifle or slingshot, CON
tributes to the annoyance and dan
ger in a smaller degree. Call them
old fogles or what you will, the peo-
pie who are alarmed by a baseball
whizzing past their heads or by hav-
ing a football bounding after them,
have as much sRight to peace and
comfort on the highways as anyone
else. ~
There is particular danger in the
footballs OF the oval variety. 1t is
admitted that only an expert knows
where it is going togo when he kicks
it. A youngster gives it a bang and
it is as apt to take a zigzag course
across the sidewalk as it is to go
down the middle of the street. A
case in point was last fall when a
woman was wheeling a baby in a car
riage in a certain section of this city.
A group of youngsters were having
great sport with one of these oval
footballs. They were in the middle
of the street, although there was an
empty lot not far away.
The woman approached cautiously.

What Fordyce did and what Jack

to be an issue with some people. The

shortly he will be surprised,
A little oil, perhaps tablespoonful,
is brought to the surface every time
the bucket is hoisted from the bottom
of the well, and in quantity is increas-

Mr.. Gwillim says that the indications
of natural gas have been very encoar-

He thinks that nothing better could
