important Opinion as to
Elective Term for School
Board Member.
BRDIGETON MATTER UP

Trenton. Sept. 30:-Assistant At
yesterday sent to j. Borgnard Belts,
assistant state superintendent of
public instruction, an opinion hold
Ing that 1t is most improper under
the Law for the board of education
of a municipality to name of its
members to the post of medical in
spector of schools. Mr.. Gaskill says
in this most important opinion:
81 note that this question has
arisen under the act of 1885, and IL
is suggested that to obviate the diff
Guilty In the matter of the Bridgeton
board of education naming one of its
members to the post of medical in
spector of schools, that he resign as
a member of the board prior to being
appointed as medical inspector.
This act of 1885 prohibits the
appointment or election of q member
of any board of aldermen, common
council, township committee or other
municipal board or body during the
term for which he shall have been
elected such member, to any office
now or hereafter required by law to
be filled by such board, council, com
mittee or body.
Irrespective of the method of
appointment or election under the
present school law, the school is con
stituted a separate apd distinct mu.
nicipality, aside from the politica
subdivision OF the state within whose
limits the territory of the school dis.
trict may be coincident. The school
district thus constituted has been
held by our courts to be a separate
and distinct municipality, governed
by the board of education, which is a
body polite, with power to hold real
estate, to sue and be sued, etc. 1t
seems to me impossible to avoid the
conclusion that the board of educa-
ton as a governing body OF this thus
constituted municipality Is a munich
pal body in itself. though not allied
to the political government OF the
territory within which 1t happens to
lie, and 1t follows. therefore, that the
act In question applies to a board of
education and prohibits the appoint
ment or election of any of its mem
bers during the term for which they
were elected or appointed to any
office required to be filled by such
board.
Under these circumstances 1t
seems to me that IT would be highly
improper for the board OF edacs
of Bridgeton to appoint one of its
members as a medical inspector Of
schools during the continuance or the
term for which he was elected or
appointed as a member of such
board.s

NAMING A CANDI-
DATE FOR GOVERNOR
Continued from page ID

upon candidates to nominate for state
offices, Charles F. Murphy sent word
to the convention hall at 1880 today
to call the Democratic convention to
order at 2:15. He told Judge Parker
to have permanent organization effect
ed and then to adjourn the convention
until eight o'clock tonight.
The boom Of John A. Bensei, who Is
q strong personal friend of his, does
not seem to have weighed much with
him just for that reason-that he
doubts If BenseI's nomination would
be conducive to carrying the election.
Never before has Tammany Hall
been In such unquestioned control Of a
state convention. Never before has
any Tammany boss been enthroned as
the state leader In the unlimited way
in which Murphy Is recognized. The
convention is In the hollow of his hand,
The convention session meant moth
ing. The real convention was in Mr..
Murphy's room at the Whiteomb,
where he was listening to the claims
of the various candidates and to the
demands of Mr.. Hearst's represents
tives, who were urging him to accept
Glynn. Gerard or Suker-with the soft
pedal on Sulzer.
Mr. Murphy is utterly undecided
what to do. If he consulted his pref
erences he would nominate Bensel, but
he does not dare. He Is listening ir-
resolutely to Hearst. who has had his
ear all day. Hearst is not pleading,
but threatening.
Indications are that a dark horse"
or a a whose name has not been
prominently mentioned In connection
with the gubernatorial nomination,
would be named for the place at the
head Of the ticket.
The name of ex-Judge Alton B. Par
ker figured largely In the talk Of those
In a position to know.
At any rate, 1t Is stated authorita-
lively these names are the only ones
that are being seriously c~onsidered in
the conferences OF which Tammany
Leader Charles F. Murphy is the cen
trail figure: Ex-Judge Alton B. Parker,
Democratic State Chairman John A.
Dix, Justices Victor J. Bowling, Mar
tin J. Keogh and J. A. O'Gorman of
the supreme court, Edward NJ. Grout
and Herman Ridder. Supplementary
to this came strong limitations that
the candidate selected would probably
be a judge.
When this information came to a
few of the inner circle among the
leaders it had become apparent that
the withdra wal of Mayor Gaynor had
brought about a tangie, which could
be Strengthened out only by a new
deal which would eliminate existing
rivalries due to the aspirations Of SO
many for the leading place.
The new turn In the preliminary ac-
~tiyities affecting the gubernatorial
nomination came after a long talk
over the telephone between Tammany
Leader Charles f. Murphy and Mayor
Gaynor or a person authorized to
speak for him. Among the candidates
on the revised list at least two, Justice
Keogh OF Westchester and Edward NJ.
Grodt, are known to have close reia-
lions with Mr.. Gaynor.

1t is known there is danger of a revolt

For Stained Fingers.

The days of preserving bring
stained fingers. Have you ever tried
using a weak solution of oxalic acid
after preparing berries or discoloring
vegetables? 1t Is quick stain re-
mover.
AS the acid Is poison, label the
bottle plainly and keep away from
children. Where stains are under
fingernails wrap bit of absorbent
cotton on the end Of an orangewood
stick and dip in the solution.
For minor stains lemon juice is
helpful. Run ends of fingers into
half a cut lemon.
Tomatoes will also remove stains,
especially those Of pairing potatoes or
other slight discolorations. A tomato
is a whitener and softens the hands.

to be so agreeable that it has ever
since that time been employed in the
same household to disguise the smell
of food in the kitchen. Every one
knows the value of burning coffee for
the like purpose, but that is so iden-
titled with the use that one thinks at
once, when smiling its odor, Of the

make the lavender disinfectant, soak
sheets of common brown wrapping
paper in satpetre and water, then

FINANCE AND TRADE REVIEW
WEATHER BOOSTS TRADE
Retail Business Feels the Effect os
Long-Delayed Summer.

"Retail trade and most crop re-
ports are on the whole better thfa
week, the result mainly of the arrival
of long-delayed seasonable summer
weather. Aiding the Improvements
in retail trade, which at best, how
ever, Is not up to expectations, has
been the offering of concessions in
many lines of dry goods and wearing
apparel. Exceptions to the improve
ment are in the Northwest, where
the critical state of the spring wheat
and other crops, due to drouth, s
noted and also at many Southern
points,, where retail trade is still
quiet.
There has been a little more con-
fidence in ordering from jobbers and
wholesalers for fall, but in the North
west there is a disposition to await
clearer view of the crop outlook, be-
fore adding to the already fairly good
business booked for fall in dry goods
and clothing. Confirmation of the
theory that there is demand for
goods at price is found in the fairly
satisfactory response in the way OF
orders to the general reductions
noted by manufacturers of bleached
cottons and gray goods this week.
'In industrial Lines there is little
evidence of improvement yet to be
seen. The iron trade is fairly ac-
tive, but pig iron is lower, and the
trade feeling as to the last half OF
the year is hardly as optimistic as in
the first six months. In cotton
goods the movement is still in the
direction of curtailment, both at lead
ing Northern and Southern centers.
Woolen manufacturing is also on
short time. The output by jewelry
manufacturers is not up to ormal.
Overproduction dis still i'm evidence
In the copper industry.
Collections do not show much I'M
provement. Business failures in the
United States for the week ending
with June 23 were 1877, against 17S
last week, 223 in the like week OF
1909, 25S in 1908, $50 in 1907 and LAG

contrasts with 27 for last week and
80 in the corresponding week of last

Cuts or Wounds.

A wound produced by sharp cut
ting instrument will heal without
trouble when the edges are nicely
brought together and left so, without
putting on any salve, provided the ac-
cess of air is shut off and the person
possesses a good constitution. If the
wound is produced by a rusty nail or
a similar cause, SO as to be jagged,
1t will soon become very infamed,
and in such case it is recommended
to smoke the wound with burning
wool or WOODEN cloth, says Woman's s
Life. Twenty minutes in the smoke
of wool will take the pain out of the
worst wound, and If repeated once or
twice will allay the worst case of in
