Insurance Under the New Laws.

Insurance Under the New Laws,
Practically ever since the new insur.
ance laws were placed on the New
York statute books as a result Of the
sweeping exposures Of 1905 the insur-
ance interests havebeen seeking to have
them modified OF repealed The laws
were designed to protect policy holders
and the public interest generally by
correcting the abuses Of reckless
finance. The powerful New York COM
panies did not like them and often
complained at Albany that they were
too restrictive. Finally Governor
Hughes ordered an investigation into
the results Of the application Of these
laws.
The report Of the investigation re-
Gently made public does not support
the contention Of the companies as to
the cause of the falling off in business
noted at New York headquarters. The
companies allege that the falling off
may be traced to the stringent laws,
but the investigators hold that it Is
primarily due to the disclosures of
1905. 1t is shown that the new laws
effected a reduction Of nearly $1O,-
100000 in general expenses Of the
companies in 1908 and that the pros
pect of increasing economy and in
creasing returns to policy holders must
have a beneficial effect upon the bust
ness and enable the large companies
to recover from the disaster Of 1905
without important modification of the
present laws.

Twenty Five Years Ended

With this issue we complete twenty
five years as editor and publisher OF
the Penn's Grove Record. Each one
of the 1900 issues have spoken for
themselves. Some have told us it is
the best paper they ever read while
others not interested in home news
care not to read opinion with which they
do not agree.
Many have passed away in that time
and many changes have been made.
Few changes have been made in the
RECORD. We have been on hand to
edit every issue but five, and have en-
deavored to be a true and reliable pur-
veyor of clean home news, most inter-
esting to our home and distant reader
In twenty-five years every other
weekly paper in Salem and Gloucester
county has had a change of editors. Two
papers in Salem county and three in
Gloucester county have passed away.
The most meteoric was shortest lived.
The slow and steady is usually the
most reliable and longest lived.
What the next twenty five years will
bring forth cannot be foretold. We
have no Way of judging the future ex-
cept by the past. There will be great
er changes than in the past.

in newspaper work and little profits,
yet there are pleasures.

The controversy over the discovery of
the North Pole by Cook and Peary
goes merrily Cd. 1t looks as if Cook
slipped quietly away and went north
while Peary, who has been searching
for it for years and left on his last trip
with a flourish of trumpets, came to the
pole second. There is a question in
many minds as to whether either of
them reached the exact top of the
earth. If they did in that frozen re-
gion there should be glory enough for
both in reaching the summit of this
earthly sphere.

Toy Gun Victims

The victims of the fourth are already
putting in an appearance in this city,
two accidents having already occurred
this week. Monday afternoon Robert,
the youngest son of Chas. Moore of the
Bricker House, was playing with "A
blank cartridge pistol and slipped a
BIB shot into the end of the pistol in
front of blank cartridge. In some
way the gun was accidently discharged
and the shot passed through his hand.
DR.. Stanton was called and promptly
cauterized the wound and no serious
results are apprehended.
A short time afterwards one of the
Schram children was shot by the
same pistol, on the hand, the wad
striking his hand and making quite
a cut in it, Parents should be on the
lookout at all times at this time of the
year to see that nothing gets into the
hands of their children that can in any
way harm them as tetanus is seldom
