In rendering verdict In our county
courts, last week, the jury went little
further than to pronounce the guilt of the
accused and recommended that steps be
taken to weed out the many places where
liquor is sold Illegally. The court took
cognizance OF this recommendation and
the Prosecutor has promised to see that it
Is carried into effect. This Is one of the
best steps that has been taken lately, and
1t is to be hoped that some good will re-
suit 1t has been an open secret that
liquor has been. for a long time, sold ille-
gally in several places in this county, and
Hainesport has been the most prominent.
The dockets In the offices of Justices of
the Peace will show complaints in great
number against persons from that town
who have been involved in breaches of
the peace, mainly fighting, and the cause
for the disturbances have generally been
traced to liquor bought either from
place not licensed to sell it. or from what
is one of the greatest nuisances that exists
the travelling beer saloon. From all
accounts 1t would never have been much
trouble to discover the offenders In the
town mentioned, but 1t did not appear to
be the business of any one In particular.
and the old rule what is everybody's
business is nobody's business" prevailed.
Now that the matter has been brought to
the attention of the court, and the Pros
ecutor has been asked to look into the
subjecs, something ought to come of 1t.
With the publicity given to the question,
there will be difficulty in getting evidence
of future acts. but there is nothing to
prevent looking backwards and Furnishing
those who have been allowed to act in a
way that has not been beneficial or cred
liable to our county. Hainesport is not
the only place that needs looking after.

Decrease In Forest Fires.

The annual report of the State Forestry
Commission, now peing prepared calls
attention to the fact that not in MANY
years have there been so few forest fires
in New Jersey as during the present sea-
son. A large measure of the credit FOR
this improved condition is given to the
system under which fire wardens were or
ganized to protect forests. Especially is
this true in South Jersey, it is pointed
out, where the work of the wardens, with
the cooperation of individual owners,
has done much to rapidly increase the
many large forest tracts in that section.
Forester Gaskill recommends the fur
ther extension of the system of fire
fighting. He also calls attention to the
danger of spectators getting hold of the
forests and thinks that the State should
itself acquire them and cultivate them in
such a way that they would never be de-
stroyed. He wishes to have young trees
growing to take the places of the old ones
as fast as they are cat, thus securing a
