Fee and Foe.

In a suit tried in Virginia town
q young lawyer Of limited expert
ence was addressing the jury on a
point Of law when, good naturedly,
he turned to the opposing counsel,
q man Of much more experience
than himself, and asked:
"That's right, I believe, Colonel
Hopkins%
Whereupon Hopkins, with smile
Of conscious superiority, replied:
"Sir, I have an Office in Richmond
wherein I shall be delighted to en-
tighten you on any point Of law for
q consideration"
The youthful attorney, not in the
least abashed, took from his pocket
q half dollar piece, which he offered
Colonel Hopkins, with the remark:
mo time like the present. Take
this, sir, tell US what you know and
give me the change" - Harper's

The Lien Law in a dutShell.

Before we had the lien law the
intelligent white population in South
Carolina controlled the production
and sale of her cotton and rice, the
chief products of the State. Now
under the lien law system, more than
half the cotton growing and market
ing of the State is in control of If
responsible, reckless, improvldent
negroes, who, 10y the use of money
obtained through the supply mer-
chants and others. from foreign cot
ton spinners, control both the pro.
duction and the price of cotton by
placing themselves, through the
medium of this lien law, absolutely
at the mercy of cotton bears.
The lien law enables the incom-
petent negro, who does not own any
thing but his labor, to rent land,
give lien on the prospective crop,
make conditions that boss the land
owner and puts the negro in such an
independpt condition that he will
not hire himself to the owner OF the
land to work at all.
In short, the lien law, to large
extent, puts the farming land owner
under the control of incompetent
laborers who own no property.
Progressive farming cannot thrive
under such conditions.

Malavs who have actually seen a
tiger killing buffalo told me they
saw the same thing happen; also
that in dragging off heavy carcass,
such as buffalo or bull, he gets
most of the weight across his shoul-

This must be fairly correct, as |

marks left indicated that only a
portion of the animal was trailing

roots of trees and swamp had to be

seen the pug marks facing the

The old idea Of a tiger killing
large game by blow from his paw
is nonsense. Besides, in this coun-

Miss Margaret Burns was giver
in marriage to Mr. T Emile Ar
rowsmith, of Kingstree.
There were no cards and only
a small number of guests wit
messed the ceremony, which
took place at the home Of the
bride.
Just at the hour for the cere.
mony, Father Charles BuDois
Wood stood before an i'm
promptu altar, banked with
palms and dropping ferns.
Miss Kate Morgan sounded
the deep chords of hendels'
sohn's March and the bridal
party appeared on the stairway
Without escort of groomsmen
or ushers came the brides only
attendant, her sister, Miss Lee
Burns, in a gown of dainty
taffeta, exquisite in its dainty
girlishness and simplicity.
The bride, as she descended
the stairway and entered the
parlor to complete the wedding
party, made beautiful picture
in her robe of duchess lace,
over a princess gown of SHIN
mering satin.
At the altar she was met by
the groom, with his brother, MI
Philip Arrowsmith, as best
man.
The beautiful Catholic cere-

wedding.
Immediately after the cere
mony wine and cake were serv'

Our newspapers are taking hold
of things in the interest of the farm
ers in no half handed way these
days. They seem to have rolled up
their sleeves, spit on their hands
and taken fast hold on the big stick
and are hammering with all their
might knocking out bucket-sheps
land their kim the lien law and
many other chocks in front of the
wheels of progressive farming in the
South.
Our newspapers are a great power
in the South for either good or evil
to our farming interests and 1t is
very encouraging to the farmers to
see the manly position they are TAX
ing in the fight to rid the State Of
vile cotton gambling and speculative
dens, and the lien law. Sheridan, a
man of great power and influence in
Great Britain in his day, spoke thus
of the power of the press: "Give
the people a corrupt House of Lords,
give them a venal House Of Com.
mons, give tkem ty rannical prince,
give them a trucking court, and let
me have but an unfettered press l
will defy them to encroach a hairs
breadth upon the liberties OF Eng
land" Cotton bears use the press
of the South to deceive the people
and hammer down the price of the
South's cotton to the injury of all
our Southern people and we must
unite in informing our country peo-
pie through the country :pres' and
knock them out sgain through the
same hole they come in.

Saving Surplus Carrots.

ANY carrots that are left in the
garden when frost comes can be
made to keep for nearly year by
storing them in sand. At least
they kept that length of time for
US. We cut the tops to within about
a half inch of the root and laid
each carrot separately, filling the
spaces between with sand and add
ing enough layers to fill the box.
They were kept in a cellar that has
a temperature of from 40 to 80 de-
grees in the winter. They always
last till the new carrots come in
June, and one year we found a
sound one az late as August. No
doubt a cooler temperature would
suit them as well or better, for car
rots are supposed to store to the
best advantage at about 81 degrees.

small stone building, which stands a
few feet north. adjoining the city hall
and lookup On this account the
building could not be made larger
without removing the surveyor gem
erals office.
Mayor Bollschweiler has given the
matter careful consideration and, it
is understood, has the promise of the
council to build an addition to the city
hall If the consent of the state of New
Jersey could be secured to remove the
record building further north, or to
some place whereby the strip of land
on the north could be used. City At
torney Hommann has been instructed
to look up the matter and If possible
obtain the consent of the Board of
Proprietors to move the building. Mr..
Hommann said this morning that as
yet he has not given the matter much
consideration, but says he thinks that,
if the consent of the board can be Sc
cured, 1t would be easy to have an act
passed in the legislature granting the
city permission to use the land. At
the next meeting of the East Jersey
Proprietors, which will be held in
May, the city attorney will probably
present the request to them and if
their consent is secured the remodel
ing or enlarging of the city hall is
assured
Perth Amboy evening news., 1907-02-27

From good authority 1t was learned
yesterday that an addition may be
built to the.city hall in the near fut-
ure In fact the entire building may
be remodeled and the much needed
police station erected.
Mayor Bollschweiler has examined
number of plans for the remodeling
of the building but says that they are
inefficient The plans were drawn
some time ago and one of them in
particular was thought by the mayor
to be partly in keeping with the nee
essary improvements that have been
evident for long time. After care
full examination of the plan, the may
or has decided that the changes could
not be appropriately made in the pres
ent building In HIS recent message
to the Board of Aldermen Mayor
Bollschweiier recommended a new
city hall and it is said that the coun-
ell favors a plan which the mayor
now has in mind.
The Plan for the Changes.
The plan is this: On the north side
of the city hall is a small building,
known as the surveyor generals Of
flee, in which Is kept the records of
the Proprietors of East Jersey. The
building is under the control of the
Board of East Jersey Proprietors, al
though the building and land are
owned by the state. AT the present

Judge Lyon Optimistic.


When Alderman-at-Large John
Pfeiffer was acting mayor he consid-
cred the same subject and conferred
with Judge Lyon, who is the registrar
of the Board of ProprietQrs. Judge
Lyon said today that as yet no Of
fetal communication has been pre-
seated to the board but stated that
the building and the land are owned
by the state.
II don't think, said Judge Lyon,
that the state would refuse the citys
request, providing the Board of Pro-
prietors were willing. Judge Lyon
also said that in his opinion the board
would not allow the building to be
moved from the present locality, al
though they might consent to its be-
ing moved further north.
The question of charging the city
hall has been the subject of much
comment for the past few years and
now that the mayor and council ha e
come together on the subject 1t Is
possible that the much needed addi-
don may be built in the near future.
The city also owns land on Market
street, east of the present city hall
but, IL possible, the enlargements will
be made on the north side of the
building, which would allow of the
enlarging of the police station and
lookup.

CATHOLIC CLUB
WILL D|SBANO.
Most Of The Members Have Join.
ed the Knights of Columbus
Is the Reason.

1t was learned today from good au-
thority that the Catholic Club, one of
the leading social and athletic or
ganizatiogs of this city, is about to
disband Most of the members, when
seen by a NEWS reporter this morn
ing. refused to discuss the situation,
but it was learned later that after to-
night the Catholic Club will be no
more
The club was organized several
years ago and won a reputation for
its prominent social events that have
been the features of each season. I'm
til about two years ago the club had
its headquarters in the large building
on the Parker estate al Smith and
Water streets.
The Grub has been prominent in
athletics and has always had a large
membership.
1t is understood that the reason for
the disbandment is on account of
nl,1ber of the members of the club
being members of the Knights of
Columbus. 1t was said this morning
by one in position to know that
nearly all of the members of the club
are now members of the Knights of
Columbus and that it has been decid-
ed by the club to disband on this ac-
count, as there was no necessity for
running two organizations which
were conducted on similar princi-
pies and composed of nearly the same
members.

TRENTON. Feb. 27;--Assembly-
man Crowther, of Perth Amboy. in
troduced Yesterday, by request a
bill enabling the proposed new ferry
company at Perth Amboy to build =
ferry terminal in that city. The bill
Is as follows
IAN act TO enable any municipality
of this state to grant permission 10
any duly incorporated ferry company
TO use the foot of any public street or
streets ending on the tidal waters OF
this state as a terminal for u public
ferry.
BE It enacted by the senate and
Jersey:
Il. That Il shall be lawful for any
municipality of this state, by its gov
erning body, or the board having
charge and control of the public
streets, highways and avenues of said
municipality. to grant to any duly in
corporated ferry company permission
to use the foot of any such public
street, highway or avenue ending on
tidal waters of this state as a terminal
for public ferry, on such terms and
for such period and under such regu-
lations as said governing body or
board and such ferry company shall
agree upon.
seprovided, however, that such
grant shall be made according to the
provisions and limitations of the act
entitled An act regulating the grant
ing by municipalities of consent to
use the streets, avenues, parks, park
ways and other public places, APP
proved March 27, 1906.
This act shall take effect immedi-
ately."
The act of 1906 referred to is the
limited franchise law of last year.
Under it the privilege proposed to be
granted to the new ferry company
would be limited to twenty years, un-
less at a vote of the citizens of Perth
Amboy 1t should be decided to extend
it to more than twenty years. But
under no circumstances could 1t be
granted for more than forty years,
which is the maximum allowed by the
law. In any case formal application
must be made to Common Council.
Assemblyman Crowther states that
it has been rumored that the proposed
new ferry line was to be operated IN
connection with trolley line pro-
jeeted across Staten Island.
