of the camp.

way surveying crew was at, or near,

To those old enough to remember
the civil war in the sixties the cele-
bration of the centenary anniversary
OF the birth of Abraham Lincoln
brings many memories OF those stir
ring times. During the war he was
the most extravagantly praised and
the most vilitied man in history. On
account of him families were divided
and friends eStranged. Lauded as al
most superhuman by some, he was de-
nounced as murderer by others and
even called ''gorilla" ia the press.
Because of his caution and conserva-
tism he was condemned by his former
supporterS-Mr. Greedy, of the New
York Tribune" in his g On to Rich
mond" articles fair exemple of this
unjust criticism-until the man as we
have since learned was we'll nigh
crushed by tine burdens imposed upon
him. Yet with all this pressure he
preserved his balance and went stead
lily on as Providence opened the way,
and with a sublime faith in God
and the American people prosecuted
the war to a successful issue and pre-
served the nation. No other charac.
ter, in American history at least,
should appeal more strongly to the
young, and his example and precepts
will be the inspiration of future gen.
erations.

OBITUARY.
JAMES JESSE CUTLER.

James Jesse Cutler, a former lawyer
Of Morris countg, died recently at his
home in California where he went
about five years ago. He was born
and grew up at Morris Plains. and was
practically self educated. He read
law, was admitted TO the bar and for a
time had considerable practice, especi-
ally as criminal lawyer. He was
won't to boast of his success in clearing
criminals fully as guilty as others con-
victed. He never secured public con-
fidence, however, and his practice
dwindled away and he gave up his
office here and retired to farm in
Chester township. He dropped out of
sight when he went west. He re-
marked TO the writer in his younger
days that to be successful at the bar a
man should be either active in church
work or in politics, and he chose poll
tics. Did he err in his choice?

For the first time in all history, it is
believed, the coyote who serenades the
moon to distraction of weirdness has
a defender. The fruit growers Of the
northwest find the jack rabbit muk
tiplying enemy. His appetite for the
bark of young fruit trees concerns
them greatly. They reflect that the
hunted and all but exterminated coy
ote is the only thing on earth that can
and does run down a jack rabbit, and
so they propose laws ordering mans
hands to no longer be raised against
the COYOTE

David warheld in 6 "A Grand Army
Man,


At the Academy Of Music, New
York, David Belasco is presenting his
great star, David Warfeld, in his not
able success of last season, ''A.Grand
Army Man. This is the strong
American drama which David Belasco
selected for Mr.. Warteld to open his
new Stuyvesant theatre, New York,
and there it was the reipning success
of the entire New York season.
The new drama is the joint work of
David Belasco, Pauline Phelps and
Marion Short, and depicts the rustic's
world in a small town in Indiana in
the early sos. The theme is quite as
tender as that of The Music Master !
10 which Mr.. Warfield has Just closed
IA remarkably successful engagement
at the Academy. In ga Grand Army
Man" the eminent actors role differs
widely from any other he has ever
played, and In it, the critics agree that
he has reached the greatest artistic
heights OF his very artistic career.
The current engagement is the first
one Mr., Warfeld has played outside Of
the Belasco- Stuyvesant il New York.
and the first time the new play has
been offered at the Academy's popu-
lar scale Of prices. The engagement
is for two weeks only. a special
matinee will be played Washington's
birthday, but during that week The
usual "Wednesday matinee will be
omitted.

DIR. CHARLES S. CHAPLIN, principal
of the Normal School at Montclair,
has the right idea of public schools.
In a recent address he said ''The
public schools are established and
maintained by the public for public
uses. They belong, not to the teach
ers, nor to the parents, nor to the tax
payers, nor to the children, but TO the
public He further said three things
were important 81. Adequate finan-
cial support. If our future citizens
are to be healthy in body and mind,
the public must furnish well-lighted
well-ventilated, well-located school
buildings, large grounds, athletic fields
and Fairgrounds. Science cannot be
taught properly without apparatus.
nor history, literature or reading
without books, nor geography without
maps, globes and pictures. 2. The
public schools have right to expect
good teachers. There are too few men
teachers and the percentage is steadily
falling. 1t is now about 20 per cent.
Every boy of IL should come daily in
to contact with a red blooded man, of
high ideals, a lover of boys and model
for their imitation. 3. The public
schools have a right to expect from
the public a genuine interest in edu-
cation. Few parents know anything
about the schools by personal vista
tion."

A LOCAL option bill has been intro,
duced in the senate by Mr.. Plummer,
of Salem. 1t authorizes vote at a
special election in municipalities less
than counties. 1t provides for an cleo
tion at the emo of each second year, no
matter which side wins. Even when
the municipality goes dry it does not
prohibit manufacture. 1t allows the
sale of liquor until the licenses expire,
allows sale for manufacturing purposes
and by druggists on prescription. 1t
provides fines from 300 to $500 and
imprisonment from three to twelve
months. 1t provides the manner of
election and for contests over results.
The bill was passed on by ex-senator
Colby and announced constitutional.

The joint committee of the senate
and house on state finance are work
ing hard trying to find ways of reduc-
ing expenses. Various ideas are pre-
sented, from general reduction Of
salaries of judges and other officials to
consolidating and abolishing boards
AS we expected, however, the sugges-
tions to hit the newspaper men are
the more prominent. 1t is proposed
to cut the salary Of the governors sec
rotary in half He is the executives
son and a newspaper man, and the
committee will have an illustrious
precedent, as the governor a short
time ago announced with great salts
faction that he had saved consider
able sum of money by cutting down
the number of insertions in publish
ing the list of delinquent corporations,
although it is difficult to square some
of the papers selected with his ideas of
economy and public service. Never
theless he set the example of soaking
the newspaper man and it is safe to
follow it. The state librarian is to be
cut, another straightout newspaper
man who has done good work for the
cause, hit him of course. The tena-
ment house commission is to be abol-
ished, knocking out the secretary, Capt.
Allen, another journalist. 1t is also
proposed to have bureau of printing
and stationery as part Of the depart
ment of the secretary of state. An
other hack at the poor printers who
supply the various departments. Let
the good work go on. The editorial
fraternity is ready to endorse every
thing with an official flavor and is
used to getting kicks anyhow,
