The pupils of the New Jersey State
Schools at Trenton were addressed on
Friday by Governor Fort. He declared
that this year New Jersey would spend
$40, 200 900 for public school purposes.
Addressing the prospective teachers
the Governor said-he wished it was in
his power to insure them better salaries
than they are now paid, but he urged
them not to pay attention alone to the
amount of money they could make, de-
claring that their calling vas one of high

The Original Commercial Sin. d

Since the beginning of recorded his
tory it has been regarded as immoral
to attempt to get something for moth
ing. This is true whether the attempt
be in the form Of petit larceny, burglary,
highway robbery or the more subtle
forms of stealing, such as selling ''gold
bricks'' and other other articles of at
l~eastless than is purported on their face.
l believe that to the evil of watering
stocks can be very largely traced most
kinds of graft, both public and private,
also the great financial upheaVals and
the %prolonging of the resultant business
depresSions. The practice of issuing
securities and stocks, with only partial
value or no value or no value at all back
of them, has been so ommon in this
country as to callous public sentiment
to the extent of that many otherwise
reputable people see no wrong in en-
gaging in the issue and sale of stocks
of this king. The worst feature of the
public Indifference is the common belief
that there is no legal remedy. In my
opinion tie wrongs growing out of the
watering sof the stocks are infinitely
more f~ar-reaching than the evils of in
temperance. AS a matter of fact, rem
edies have been found in other countries
and what has been done there can be
done here. All that is required is a
public awakening and realization of the
peoples losses and wrongs following in
the wake Of this corporate piracy.-C.

Where New Jersey Gets The Money

S~Ao(J oIAo liz NIUDGN
Irvine b. Mcguire, secretay of the
State Board OF Assers the filed with State
Comptroller Henry j: West a prelimmi-
nary schedule, showing the taxes levied
Tor 1908 against miscellane corporations
chartered under the laws of New Jer-
sey.
This prelimsinary schedule shows the
taxes levied for 1908 against CHS misceI-
laneous corporations, the aggregate tax
OF winch amounts to $2,457, 77I.57. The
schedule contains only those companies
which have reported to the State Board
prior to today. 1t will be followed by
supplementary schedules filed from time
to time as supplementary reports are
received.
The number of companies whose re.
turns are included shows an increase
over the corresponding schedule of last
year OF 264, while the amount of tax
levied shows a falling off of $lO7, 1854.
The decrease III the amount of tax as
exhibited III the schedule is attributable
IN part to the fact that a great MANY
corporations which have been making re-
turns on an inflated capital stock in
the past have squeezed some of the water
out during the year, and are now max
ing IeluIlis upon a reduced amount Of
issued and outstanding stock. Others
which have made returns but have not
PAID their taxes have had their charters
forfeited !: and do not appear upon the
schedule.
OF the Gas companies in ;the schedule
6436 are taxed upon the basis of the
capital stock issued and outstanding,
The largest OF this class of companies
is the United States Steel Corporation,
which has an outstanding capital stock
Of 9 . ,oo3, 900, and a pays State tax of
$47,179.
-Four life insurance companies incorpo-
rated III New Jersey are taxed S36I..

a tax OF 81 .457 %; one parlor, palace or
shedding car company a tax of 1906. SO.
and one electric hight company a tax OF

The brewers in session in Milwaukee
are not only discussing their business
interests but the local option question
which is intermeddling with their bust

NEW JERSEY STATE NEWS
Electric Chair Ends All.

Now that there has been so much
publicity over the announced attempt
to show that criminals executed in
the electric chair may be revived, It
is to be doubted If County Physician
Frank G. Scanned, of Trenton, ever
gets a chance to make the experiment,
unless he gets a relatiy re of some con-
demned man to consent to his expert
menting on the body, and even then
the announced intention of Head
Keeper Osborne not to deliver the
body up to the county authorities un-
til many hours after an execution
would prevent any possibility of re-
suscitatfon. The legal authorities
have dug up another bar to such eX-
periments, and say that the County
Physician has nothing to do with re-
porting to the Coroner sudden deaths,
as DR.. Scammell says is his duty. The
legal sharps say hat undoubtedly it
is the duty of the County Physician
to report sudden deaths, but they con-
tend that the electric chair law does
away with the powers of the County
Physician as well as deprives the Cor
one Of fees for giving burial certil-
Gates as a matter of form. AS the
law now stands if a relative demands
the body the principal keeper must
deliver it to him, but not until he. is
assured that the man is dead, and
this makes reasonably sure that no
experiments for resuscitation will be
tried on executed men in New Jersey,
at least they will not be tried in the
State prison, for Principal Keeper Os-
borne has said so, and he is absolute
boss of the situation.
