The factions have not yet got to-
gether in Nicaragua, but it looks more
and more as though they are likely to
do SO. President Madriz has made
peace proposals, and General Estrada
the leader Of tho insurgents, has re-
piled. The offer is not accepted, but
General Estrada suggests meditation,
with the United States as the deciding
power. Uncle Sam is not looking for
any such mission. but II he can be in
strumental in bringing about an hon.
orable adjustment of the quarrel and
In restoring peace to distracted re-
gion perhaps he will not object. And
the steps taken looking to the with
drawal Of the American naval forces
in that quarter would seem to indicate
that apprehensions OF further serious
trouble are no longer entertained.

Mr.. Durand, the director of the CEN
sus, has been casting preliminary
glance over the field. and he makes a
rough estimate that the enumeration
this year will show a population of
between sS.000.000 and 90.O0O.OO0. The
directors estimate would seem to be
conservative as 1t does not include
any extraordinary growth. In fact.
according to his total the ratio of in
crease would be smaller than in the
preceding ten years. The census of
1900 gave population Of 76,303.3S7.
a gain Of nearly 100000 over 1890.
A corresponding gain from 1900 to
1910 would send the figures consider
ably over the 100000 900 mark. In fact,
the World Almanac, taking the esu-
mates of governors of states and terri
tories. places the population for the
Unite States at present at 94.O49.S10.
There has been some remarkable de-
velopment in some localities, and the
final results of the census taking this
year may furnish some surprises.

THERE IS bill In the Legislature, In
troduced by Assemblyman Whyte-notice
by the spelling that 1t Is not the Burling-
ton county wonderland 1t has every ap-
pearance of being good bill to knock
out. At present prosecutors of the pleas
are authorized to expend money in the
detection of criminals and bringing them
to justice. Mr.. Whyte's bill proposes
that hereafter the bills for all such ex-
penses must first go to the board of free
holders, and then the county Judge may
put his stamp Of approval upon them.
At present the judge has the first investi-
cation and then the board of freeholders
come In. To pass the bill will be hard
blow at justice, for the board of free
holders could refuse to pay any or all
bills incurred In the prosecution of GRIM
inals and 1t is easy to see what the result
would be. An example of this was given
In Ocean county where there was long
fight over the payment of actual expenses
In murder trial and the board of free
holders held the matter up for some time.
1t will be very poor move to give the
latter body the power to halt criminal
prosecution and to pass bill that will
allow the entering into the court proceed
ings the meanest kind of politics.

Two justices of the peace in Mercer
county have been indicted for illegal con-
duct, the charges being that they made,
published and uttered certain false, forged
and counterfeit affidavits. They pleaded
guilty and will be tried by a jury. An
other justice. In Atlantic county, has been
arrested for running a gambling joint.
Not long ago justice In this county was
brought before the court to answer an in
dictment charging him with Withholding
moneys he had collected. He was allowed
to escape punishment by resigning from
the Office he had disgraced. These are
the cases where the offenders have been
apprehended, but there are cases on re-
cord where the transactions have been
rather shady" but all attempts to get
justice or punishment have been thwarted
by restitution being made just In time to
stop summary proceedings. There was a
convention, recently, at which the justices
Of the peace strove to institute system
that would call for higher types of men
for the Office, men with education, but
sometimes 1t would seem that "a little
learning is dangerous thing" even In a
small Office. Learning and knowledge
are very desirable, but a good grade of
morals Ia much better.

a FOURTH OF July celebration that
would not be a sacrifice of children was
promoted at meeting in the council
chamber Wednesday night. 1t was sug-
gested that the best arguments presented
came from those who officially represented
influential organizations of women. No
more hopeful sign of final success has vet
been seen. When the Civic Club, the
State Federation of Women's Clubs, and
other allied organizations demand 1t, a
sensible celebration of Independence Day
will not long be delayed.
Mayor Haussling is to be credited with
having proposed such a hearing as that
given by the councils committee. He
took the initiative in appealing to the hui
name sentiments and good judgment OF
the great majority of Newark's citizens,
and 1t is hoped the city authorities will
act promptly and favorably.
The chairman of the Civic Club and the
presiding officer of the State Federation
of Women's Clubs suggested that bands
play In the parks, that copies of the
national hymn be printed, distributed and
sung, that residents of foreign nationalities
give their folk dances and sports, that
pageants be given In which boys and girls
could participate, that historic pictures
and tableaux be given and that instructive
exercises be given, rather than fireworks
and noise.
There was but one voice in opposition.
and that was from the city superintendent
of the bureau of combustibles. Mr.. Gas
ser held the burning of powder to be pro-
motive of patriotism. There is more
patriotism in one small firecracker for a
boy" he said, "than In a million school
books"
The parents of the fifteen or more chill
dren who were killed in this state last
Fourth of July do not agree with Mr..
Gssser. Neither do the hundreds whose
children have lost their eyes, their hands
or their legs. Neither do those whose
homes were destroyed by fire on that day.
The small cracker and the SIN all torpedo
are what have led to the larger and more
toys. They are all of a piece.
Other cities have prohibited them
and are no less patriotic for so
doing. NeaoGyk Neaos.

AT meeting of the Philanthropic As
ISOLATION, in Moorestown. last week, the
county prison was discussed, and state
ment was made that It was unfit for occu-
patton, unhealthy, and all that sort of
thing that has been put to the public for
long time. But there happened to be
present two or three gentlemen who had
paid visits to the jail at different times,
and when they gave in what they knew
there was somewhat of change in senti-
ment and the following resolution was
adopted: sit is the sense of this meeting
that the jail at Mount Holly is in good
condition, well taken care of and amply
large for the needs of the county at the
present time, and the Sheriff is to be com
mended on his management of the same. .

jurisdiction. The sheriff believes the dogs
will also prove a successful experiment.
He bought them with his own money, too.
