account Of his stewardship ana wants to

Stokes has put the kibosh on gllttering
generalities and bewildering rhetoric The
Wilson organs are trying to belittle his
efforts to enlighten the people Of the
state concerning the truth, but they are
wasting their time, because Mr.. Stokes Ii

THAT was funny stunt that was gotten
of by the Burlington Gazette in which it
showed that former Surrogates had re-
ceiveu large amount of money but that
Joe Huf had done all the work and kept
the Office straight. As both Of the Repub-
lican officials under whom Mr.. Huff served
ten years are dead they cannot refute the
statement, but there are others who think
the matter was slightly overdrawn.

SOME Of the effects of the Geran cleo.
tion law have already been felt in this
township where three voters cannot cast
their ballot next Tuesday because Of
failure to be personally registered. Two
of these men were away from home and
were unable to get here, the other was
sick and unable to get to the registry
place. This Is simply case Of disfran-
chisement.

RELIEF was brought to the farming
community In the neighborhood of
Wrightstown and New Egypt when it
was announced that man had been
arrested for setting fire to barns and that
he had confessed to the crimes. The
people living In that portion of the county
had reached stage when 1t was almost
feared to go to bed Nobody knew who
would be the next victim. All anxiety
has now been removed. This state of
affairs was produced through the efforts
of County Detective Ellis 81. Parker, who
went to work to ferret out the criminal
and he was successful. He is entitled to
all the praise In this matter and he GER
tainiy has earned all the salary he gets
from the county as well as any extra
rewards that have been offered. His acts
In this case have been of the highest
detective order.

THE CAT came back" As was to be
expected, the editor of the Palmyra Neas
could not help feeling the sting In the re-
marks of this paper last week and back he
came with something of his own that was
expected to be very crushing. First, let's
get straight on the tax question. We
never intimated that Sleeper does not pay
his tax. What we did say was that he
owns paper that he tried to sell recently
for 81 200, and on which he does not pay
one cent of tax, does not even have 1t
printed in his home town. The parties
with whom he was negotiating examined
into the affair and concluded the price was
out of proportion to the worth of the offer
ing. THE MOUNT HOLLY News admits
that 1t does have considerable public print
ing. and the bills on file at the Collectors
Office will show that it has charged much
less for several items than some who pirate
about being honest and decent citizens"

WHILE Joe HUFF may have been the
whole show under former Surrogates 1t is
quite evident that William P. Lippincott

that the Surrogate has been frequently
complimented on the fact that the office
has been conducted in manner hereto

WHILE not carrying brass band around
with him Robert Peacock is letting the
people know that he is in the race for
Auditor. He looks with satisfaction on
the record he has made In the short time
he has occupied the Office and promises
that he will not go backward in his adj
ministration. Mr.. Peacock is a young
man who has worked his way up to the
present high situation he occupies in bust
ness life. During the present term of
court he secured many compliment for the
manner in which he handled the impor-
tant cases that he was engaged to defend,
and the court openly praised him. The
same energy that Mr.. Peacock has put
forth In his profession he eulists In his
duties as Auditor, and the people who
have had business at the Collectors office
bear testimony that he is a gentlemanly,
efficient officer and is deserving the sup
port of all taxpayers.

Our candidate for Assembly hardly
needs any mention. He has a record as
a member of the lower House that cannot
be assailed and he has shown himself
worthy representative. His platform is
to serve the people at all times. Hi
refusal to bend the knee to would-be
bosses has caused some to feel they would
like change, but that is good reason
for returning him to Trenton. There was
no more independent candidate In the
Assembly than Blanchard II. White. He
found out what the people of the county
wanted and then devoted his time to get
it, There are several good laws on the
statute books that he gave great attention
to and his work was very beneficial In
having them become laws. He is not
man who will give his attention firstly
to my profession" Ga the contrary be
has allowed many things that might have
been of service to the legal fraternity go
by the board because he felt he should not
act in a selfish or professional manner
By his straightforward actions he made
many friends In the Legislature and be
was respected by members of both parties
for the interest he showed and for the
good judgment he displayed in his sup
port OF important measures. While there
is a member of the medical profession
running against him there should not be
any change of votes on that account. The
State Medical Society rendered Mr.. White
vote of thanks for the efficient service
rendered it during his legislative career
His opponent, DR.. Marcy, is an allopathic
physician, and in his platform he says he
will serve his profession first. Just what
need there was for such an assertion is
not known. Mr.. White would not make
such sweeping assertion about his legal
profession or about any other. He prom
ises to serve the people and to do all in
his power to aid in having laws passed
that will benefit everybody. That has
been his practice and he may be relied
upon not to go backward now He has
made reputation as fair-minded legis-
lator that he cannot afford to have
damaged now. If elected, as he surely
should be. Blanchard H. White will be
found where he has always been-fghting
for good government and good measures.

the fresh meat business of a broad
 country containing 100,000,000 of
 honest people. This administration
 and all other administrations since
 1893 permitted these millions to be plundered to enrich about a dozen packers, and not one of them was called to account for his alleged crime until the present trial was be- gun on December 6 last. The country should speak out on this subject, and it should speak in manner that will not be misunderstood. Why, in a word, did not the Mckinley adminis- tration or Roosevelt or Taft bring the 10 packers to the bar of justice The first indictment against them was not brought into court until 21 years after the Sherman bill had become law. This kind of justice for packers who had been the country is not the kind of justice that is meted out to the humble and fleeced consumer.

There is always a little criticism heard when a governor declines to par don convict who is a sufferer from some dread disease" stated Governor O'Neal while in Birmingham Friday. Tt is natural, l presume that such criticism is made, but very often the facts in the case are not understood.
 For instance, the pardon board recommended that I pardon certain negro woman who was represented as being in a dying condition as q result of the ravages of horrible disease. was tempted to issue the pardon at once. However, I determined to in- vestigate the case.
 "On investigation. I found that the woman had been convicted of the most heinous offense that a criminal can commit. When I notified the pardon board of the crime which the woman had committed, each member readily decided that the person should be denied pardon. Several of the mem bers furthermore agreed to investigate the facts in every case in the future before making recommendation"

From the New York Sun.
 Tell me- said the man who was toy ing with the ice in the glass to the gray haired bartender, how many drinks of whisky do you get on an average out of quart bottle?Y

 That's different. explained the bar tender. When a man sits around his home or at friends table he takes a larger drink than he would at a bar. That's not quite it either. Here's how it works out in favor of the man who runs bar:
 You come in with three or four friends along in the afternoon. It is pretty cer- tain that each is going to buy a drink. ilal hiCdHSJ we II say, IOuT urlIlkS, TOT each.
 You know that just before dinner you are going to have in addition a cocktail or two. At dinner it is lyour custom to drink something, and after dinner you probably will have something more. That's about the plan of campaign of the average New Yorker. Well, each of the quartet is going to do about the same thing His first drink may be of the average size. Keep in mind, too. that the three finger drink is no longer the thing. It is nearer two fingers; maybe less.
 After the first drink you begin to shave On the fourth drink, which is taken not because anybtdy wants it, but because it is the fool ctstom that every boay must buy or couni himself a tight wad, very likely only the bottom of each glass is mostened by the whisky. On the fourth round, therefore, the four to. gether do not take much more than one fair-sized drink.
 So you can see that when this hap pens often that quart bottle can hold many drinks, and if you figure it out you will see that IS drinks to bottle is a certainty and IS should be common
 "At 15 cents drink that's nice profit you say. Indeed, yes. The whisky doesn't cost over 60 cents bottle. if that much Multiply IS by 15. subtract 60, and you've got the answer in dollars and cents''

Honesty Is the Best Policy

Fair dealing should not be confined tosindividuals. It should be indulged in by cities as well, and it should be extended on occasion to corporations. If the lighting contract and the car fare contract were parts of one bar gain between the city and the car company, then indeed fair dealing calls for the annullment of both or neither.
 Common honesty and fair dealing are at stake in this matter, and the appeal of the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company is not so much an appeal for the maintenance of the lighting and fare contracts as it is for plain justice in a plain bar gain. The two contracts should, as all intelligent citizens know, stand or fall together. If the lighting contract is to be voted down then the street car company should have the right to withdraw it's car fare contract. This is due in all fairness to the Bir- mingham Railway, Light and Power company, and the sense of honesty in the commission and out of it will be nrettv sure to do justice in this matter
The Birmingham age-herald., 1911-12-31
Birmingham's Fire Department

The fame of Birmingham's motor equipped fire department is extend ing far and wide. Fire Commissioner Joseph Johnson of New York pub fishes a letter in which this sentence is written: Certainly New York's fire department is as much entitled to the best fire apparatus as is Birming- ham, Ala, whose mayor is authorized to go into the open market and get the best goods obtainable."
 We'll, New York is "some city," but it still has horse drawn fire appa- ratus, and not long ago it had street cars drawn by horses, and it still has few of the latter. It is bigger than it is modern, and it need not hesitate to take a tip or two from Birming- ham, Ala.
 Many city is studying Birming hams fire apparatus. Chief Bennett and the commission were "early birds" in this matter, and they are an example to the greater part of the county; and it is not a horrible ex- ample. It is an example that fills the other towns with either envy or enterprise.

"POstoffice Box No. PAT"

Direct evidence by its secretary in the packers trial in Chicago brought out the fact that 'Postoffice Box No. PAT" meets every Tuesday to fix the price of meat, to agree on the price to be paid for cattle, and to allot among it's members the amount of meat to be shipped into the different centers of distribution, one of which Is Birmingham.
 "Postoffice Box No. PAT" has been meeting for the purposes mentioned weekly ever since 1893, with the ex- ception of two years. It is meeting weekly for those purposes at the present time.
 And yet in all these years the Sher- man antitrust law has been ostensi- ply in operation! This is pretty travesty of national law and national justice. The Sherman law was passed in 1890 and in 1893 the meat pool was organized in plain defiance of it, and that pool has gone on taxing con- sumers beyond all reason all these years. All this has taken place in a country supposedly dominated by law and order.
 Secretary Veeder of the meat pool testified that the pool had divided the country into five sections, each known Aby letter of the alphabet, and that each member of the pool was simi- larly designated to prevent publicity. The southeast was known as Terri tory B." Each member of the pool was told on every Tuesday how many pounds he could ship into each terri tory during the coming week.
 This pool controls 90 per cent 4
