j IN the Will pf Isaac G.. Wyman, Of
Salem, Mass, which bequeaths prac-
tically his entire fortune of S10,O0O,-
600 to develop the graduate school of
Princeton university, Princeton alumni
read the reason for the mysterious
withdrawal byWilliam z. Proctor, of
Cincinnati, last January of his offer of
$500s000 and the resultant withdrawal
of a similar sum raised conditionally
by the alumni for the same purpose.
They also understand now how Dean
Andrew E. West, who favored a segre-
gated site for the graduate school, has
been supported in his long controversy
with DR.. Woodrow Wilson, president
of the university, who has been unable
to bring about the selection of the col
lege campus. That DIR. West had a
private understanding with Mr.. Wy
man, and since July 1st of the last
year, when the Salem recluse made a
will, knew that the Wyman millions
would some day come to the university
and make the graduate school one of
the greatest in America, is now ap-
parent.

THE reports coming from Cincinnati,
where the National Wholesale Liquor
Dealers association is in session, to
the effect that closer watch will be
kept in the future over the retailer,
will create no very deep impression in
this part Of the country. 1t sounds
well to say: "Don't criticise a law
breaking retailer il you solicit his pa
tronage, and if retail dealer conducts
place offensive to the community or
in defiance of the law, the distiller or
wholesale dealer who supplies him, is
as guilty as the owner of the saloon
hinself',; but where are the whole
sale liquor dealers who will carry out
this principle Certainly not in Nor
ristown judging from the way liquor is
sold to drunken men.

AS matter Of general interest to
the people of this section of the state
we give not only synopsis of Repre-
sentative Fowler's letter to his con-
-stituents, but also the comments of
some of the influential papers. So far
as we have observed, with the excep-
tion of a. few Democratic papers the
press Of the state are of the opinion
that Mr. Fowleremade a great mistake
in attempting to further his cause in
attacking personally party leaders.
If the state Of affairs he holds up to
censure exists IT, has existed for years
and Mr. Fowler must have known of
it, and was willing to profit by it,.
What the outcome will be it is Diff
cult TO forecast. Our representative
has virtually put himself outside of
The pale Of his party and his best
friends are at loss to know just how
he can go to work to secure renomi-
tion. 43 az .eas8S&

A New Kind Of Fish.

A Washington architect and engi-
neer, whose speciality is the recon-
struction and remodeling Of country
places, was retained for such service
by northern man who had acquired
an estate in western Virginia.
On this place there was fish pond
that the owner had decided to clear
out. Upon being drained it was found
by. the Washington specialist that
there was at the bottom spring Of
colored mineral water. Immediately
he advised his employer that he had
found chalybeate.
+ChaIybeatey' repeated the owner.

EvoIution of tha stata.

According t. the best information
we possess. the evolution Of the state
has been as follows: First, the pa
triarchal condition. with the surrender
OF the individual to the associated
group; second, tribalism, on the prin-
cipie Of real or supposed kinship;
third, the merging Of tribes into ma
tions under kings; fourth. the struggle
between the mobiles and the kings for
political supremacy, each by turns
seeking the alliance Of the people, with
the consequence that the average man
steadily gains in Importance; finally.
the average man takes hand on his
own account against the kings and
mobiles, overtops them ana makes his
Welfare the ultimate end Of govern

BETWEEN the sanatorium discussion
and the tuberculosis exhibition with
lectures every night the people OF
Morristown are getting considerable
information on the subject. 1t is
generally conceded that it is one OF

tainly no need of anyone worrying
about it to any extent. Certainly there
is no excuse for acting in an inhuman
manner about individuals or the loca-

olution authorizing the golf committee
to add to the rules clause which will
declare that all clubs with heads Of the
mallet type are a substantial departure
from the traditional and accepted form
and make of golf clubs. This would
bar the use Of the schenectady put
ter" an American club which enjoys
great popularity among the English
golfers. The decision Of the Royal and
