Every year in the Rumai country, in
India, marriage lottery is held, gen.
orally in October. The names of all
the marriageable girls and of the
young men who are tired of bachelor
life are written on slips Of paper and
thrown into separate earth pots. One
OF each kind is drawn at one time by
local wise man. The youth whose
name Is drawn out obtains a letter of
Introduction to the young woman whose
name accompanies his, and then all
that remains for him to do is to start
courtship, with all the ardor of which
he Is capable. Such fortuitous court.
ships might not appear at first sight to
promise very well for future connubial
happiness; but, nevertheless, In the
majority of cases, everything turns out
very satisfactory.

UNDER the old taxing system In New
Jersey, where the tax rate was high and
when the property owner made no com
plant OF excessive taxation, the assessed
valuation was uniformly low. In some
taxing districts the tax rate was as high
as per cent, but an examination of the
tax bills showed that the property owner
paid less amount of tax than he would
have paid In district where the tax rate
was much lower.
When, therefore, the valuations came tC
be raised to full value under the new law
there were wide variations In the increase
ranging from 20 per cent to more than
100 per cent The increased assessments
& in Essex county and in Newark showed
these great differences. In Hudson county
the tax rates were high and the assess
ments ruled low. There was always q
marked difference between the annual tai
rates in Newark and Jersey City, the rate
in the latter city being much higher
showing Individually that the Jersey City
rate of assessment was much lower thar
the average in Newark, which was among
the highest In the state.
Consequently, when the assessors ii
Hudson county were compelled, after re
fusing to do their duty under the law, tt
increase their assessments to figures rep.
Presenting something like real value, tn,
Total increase was greater than elsewher,
the state There is no doubt that tn
railroad companies desired the assess
ments increased. in order that the railroad
tax rate should be reduced, and nobod,
possessed of common sense will wonder
at that. If the main stem has not beer
assessed by the State Board at homes
figures the Board can be changed, as wa
the Fish and Game Commission, by legis
lation. But the delinquency of the Stat
Board does not initiate against the system
of assessment of full value for propert,
for tax purposes. This state is not goinl
back to the abominable system of under
valuation and discrimination that the new
law has abolished. Nesoark Star

TUESDAY, DECEMBER 10, 1907

PRINCIPAL BULLOCK, of the Trenton
schools, has made out schedule in which
he shows what he thinks are the proper
salaries to be paid school teachers and
which he is trying TO have the Board of
Education of that city to adopt. In this
eff ,rt he is being aided by the press of the
city and by many public spirited citizens
who are willing that those who work
should be paid In proportion to the value
of their services. OF course the adoption
OF such measure will bring a protest
from the taxpayers. The cry is that the
schools now cost more than they ought
to, and many of those who appear to
appeal from assessments claim that they
should not be taxed for school purposes
because they do not have any children to
send to school, but that is q poor argu-
ment, for everybody agrees that the bene-
fits derived from the schools are equal, If
not In excess of the amount expended.
School teachers are not paid any too much
for the work they are compelled to do.
This cannot be more clearly set forth
than In the following remarks from the
Trenton State Gazette: The successful
public school teacher must always be q
student. Education means advancement,
not only on the part of the pupil, but on
the part Of the teacher. The wood
worker, the iron worker and the man who
occupies position in the public service,
may learn his trade or his duties, and his
success depends upon his activity and his
faithfulness. But the public school teach
er must study, and study continually,
giving his time and his money for the
enlargement of his knowledge. His work
is never done and there is no limit to the
horizon of his Development. The worth
of the competent public school teacher is
nowhere fully appreciated.
