THE Asbury Park journal" says
:" Watch our prediction and see how
far out of the way we come, when we
say, we believe that in the next ten
years the liquor question will settle
itself, People Twill talk little of license
and laws governing the sale of liquor
because there will be comparatively
few who will use it except in cases of
necessity. The people of this nation
are educating themselves to realize
that alcoholic beverages should be
ranked among the most dangerous poi
sons to the human system. A wave, of
education is sweeping over the coun-
try that will soon make many wonder
they could have countenanced the use
of liquor. A few years ago, the brav-
est man would hardly have declared,
as John Mitchell did this week, that
wherever saloon is destroyed repu-
table business will rise in it's place,
taking care of the labor question, but
nothing more plainly shows that con-
ditions are changing"

Tnn Trenton newspapers have found

THE Trenton newspapers have found
out that Governor Fort will recon-
mend in his forthcoming message the
creation of a collateral Inheritance de-
partment, with, of course, a force of
new officers. He is said to be of the
mind that an independent department
would collect more Inheritance lakes
than has been done, but no one APP
pears to believe that the increase, il
lbs matured, would begin to pay for
the new burden it would place on the
state treasury. The collection of the
collateral Inheritance taxes has been
vigilantly performed by the state
comptrollers, and there does not seem
to be any good reason for giving it in
TO the hands of new officials and add
ing to the expenses OF the collection
