WE HAVE little wealth remaining
w in American families for more
than three generations of heirs,
and that in only a very few cases in
deed. 1t scatters considerably, as
rule, in the first generation of heirs,
greatly in the second, and during the
third it vanishes, and the heirs of the
millionaire return to lives of strenuous
labor-a much needed reformatory
school, and one of the best. l cannot
but believe that it Is best for the ma
ton as whole that wealth should thus
be allowed to pass freely from rich to
poor, unimpeded by legislation, all left
to the free play of natural forces, the
spendthrift getting rid of the burden
he cannot use we'll, the poor man ac-
quiring it by strenuous exertion, self
denial and useful service.
Our experience in America is that
millionaires' sons do not compare we'll
as valuable members of society with
their fathers, nor even with those COM
PEELED to earn their livelihood by honest
labor; and as for the millionaires them
selves, so far as my knowledge of that
class extends few are happy in old age.

retire upon, they have neglected to

4 BRAHAM LINCOLN once said;
"A "Our government rests on public
IA opinion. Whoever can change
nublic opinion can change the govern
ment practically just as much.
Speaker Cannon, Aldrich, Payne and and
others of the stand-patters evidently
believe that they can successful" defy
public opinion and run. this government
for the benefit of special interests. But
they are beginning to find out the force
of public opinion, and the Chicago
Tribune, which has made an exhaustive
study Of the political situation has
discovered by a poll of editors that
there is a widespread revolt among the
neopIe. particularly in the west. That
paper presents the opinion of thousands
of Republican and Independent editors
of the middle west who are overwhelm-
q Cannon as speaker of the next house
of representatives.
A summary of these votes shows:

Stand PdtterS Think They

Oakland Enquirer)

EHqulrHI1
Republicans-For, 546; against, 1858.
Independents-Fo 81; against, Sal.
Total-For, SIT; against, 1884.
They also are opposed to the Aldrich-
Cannon tariff bill. This is the vote:
Republicans-For, S12; against, 1886.
Independents-For 27; against, 577.
Total-For, S39; against, 3463.
No doubt these opinions represent
the sentiment of the great masses of
the people, but the question is:
What are they going to do about it?
Are they going to fall into line behind
the machine men, the Cannon support
ers and the standpatters and re-elect
them regardless of what they repre-
sent?
What use is public sentiment unless
1t can make itself effective, unless it
can, as Lincoln said, change the gov
ernment and make it the real will of
the people? Republican government is
not real and effective unless it repre-
sents the people.

In New York state, where from the
causes mentioned the highways are
more dangerous than they are in New
Jersey, the society proposes a highway
commission of three, which shall have
sole power to issue and revoke licenses.
Applicants must pass examinations as
to their ability to drive machines under
trying knowledge. This latter require
ment would tend to greatly reduce the
number of licensed drivers, or else to
compel a course of study in the mech
anism and use Of automobiles. 1t is no
more than is required of anyone who
wishes to run a stationary engine,
which isn't half as dangerous as an
automobile.

STATE ASSESSORS
WANT PRIVACY
Reporters Are Denied Admission to
Room Where Public Business
Is Transacted.

Trenton, Nov. 1.-The State Board
of Assessors is meeting today for the
purpose of deciding upon the assess
ments on railroad property for the
coming year. Newspaper men were
not admitted to the meeting. In view
of the recent decision of Justice Gar
rison, in which he held that the rec
ords of the Board are public property
and should be accessible to any who
wish TO examine them, it was thought
that the reasoning might apply to any
persons who might wish to attend a
meeting where public business was
being transacted.
The correspondent of the Jersey
Journal first attempted an entrance.
He was told by Theodore Strong that
while public business was undoubted-
ly being transacted, the Board had al
ways considered these meetings to be
of private nature, and he denied ad-
mittance Whkn another newspaper
man tried he was seconded by DR.. 0ba-
diah Bogardus, member of the board,
who expressed the thought that if the
records of the board are public prop
erty its meetings ought certainly not
to be conducted behind closed doors.
Mr.. Strong was not of this opinion.
The reporter wanted to know if a vote
of the board had been taken on the
question. Mr.. Strong said no vote
had been taken and that it would
make no difference if there had. The
meeting would be private. Mr.. Smith
settled the question for the board.
County Tax Commissioner Mark NJ
Pagan, OF Jersey City. is expected to
make application for the railroad
schedules held by the board this af-
ternoon in pursuance of the decision
of Justice Garrison. Merritt Lane, his
counsel, is here with the order of per-
emptory mandamus granted by the
Supreme Court, and he will serve it
as soon as Mr.. Pagan arrives.
1t was learned later that a vote
really had been taken by the assess
ors and that Hendrickson and BogaE-
dus had voted in favor of admitting
the public, as represented in the news
paper men and others, TO the meetings.
Strong and Halsey voted against the
proposition and their word went, for
the time being. anyhow.
James Allardice and Secretary Nc
Lean, of the Hudson County Board of
Taxation, have been down here cool
ing their heels in the corridor for the
last three hours. They want to get
into the assessors meeting. The as
SCISSORS don't seem to want them.

800 at Mays Landing.

Mays Landing, n. j., Nov. Near
ly 300 sportsmen were in the deer
woods hereabouts before sunrise this
morning eager 20 get a shot at the
king of the forest. Every stand was
taken and the crossroads were lined
with hunters.
Automobiles and other conyeyances
took gunners from this and neighbor-
ing cities to the fayorite stands" af-
ter midnight last night Anxious
huntsmen remained in their machines
until the first .streaks of dawn crept
across the sky. At one time near
Weymouth, reputed to be one of the
best sections for deer, thirty-six ma
chimes were parked in one clearing.
Each was filled with gunners ready to
seek the bucks at daylight
Reports received here tonight say
the deer are plentiful. Tonight sew
seral local shots arrived in their ma
chimes after successful day in the
woods. Gil" Smith and Chris" /"
Lewis, two old-time deer hunters of
this city, killed a 200-pound buck
above Weymouth at dawn. Last year
they were equally successful on the
opening day of the season.
