Harry and Lady Verney is ring

the wedding ceremonies of the family,
and is cherished as a precious heir

Charles l., encircled with diamonds,

Sir Edmund Verney. his marshal and
standard bearer, who fell at Edge Hill

STATE CONTROL OF ATHLETICS.

II + it is proper that "a State commission should have jurisdiction
over boxing contests, why not over all athletics? And then,
again, why should not the supervision be national? New York
has just established a commission to regulate public boxing bouts,
and it is proposed to extend it's authority over athletics generally
and over Fairgrounds. There is a rapidly growing love of athletics
in the United States and among both sexes, and it is the most
encouraging development of our national life. In the public schools
generally much is now done to promote athletic exercises and games,
while Fairgrounds for children with apparatus for athletics are null
tiplying in cities. There has been no encouragement from govern
ment, municipal, State or national, for popular athletics. Men
and women and youth have taken to them even under the dis
couragement of old blue laws that make innocent recreation on a
Sunday criminal. If, as every intelligent man will declare, athletic
exercises are a necessity for the youth of a nation to make vigorous
manhood and womanhood, why should not government take a hand,
give to athletics all the encouragement and aid that may be neces
sary and invest them with a national character? The federal gov
eminent not only recognizes rife shooting, but has constituted a
permanent board for the encouragement of rifle practise, which is
only one form of athletics. Wellington is credited with the remark
that the battle of Waterloo was won on the athletic field at Elton.
Might we not have occasion to say at some future time that vic
tories of our army and navy in defense of the country were won
on the nations athletic fields?

ADJOURNMENT or CONGRESS-.

NO oNGREss will adjourn next week, probably on Tuesday
history and one replete with interest and full of significance
of the near future in national politics. The outcome of the session
is wholly to the advantage of the Democrats. They enacted the
reciprocity bill, for a majority of the Republicans in both houses
voted against reciprocity; they put through the corrupt practises
bill, the statehood bill and all the tariff reform bills to reduce
the cost of necessaries for the people. 1t is not the. fault of the
Democratic reformers in Congress that the tariff reform bills have
failed to become laws. The people must look to the President for
the responsibility for that failure, for, Notwithstanding his pledges
and protestations in 1909, he vetoed them and robbed the people
of their benefits. All the promises made by the Democratic ma
iority in the House have been fulfilled, but that majority could not
guarantee what the President would do with legislative reforms
and the President has houted the sentiment of the country and
compelled it to endure for an indefinite time the burdensome tariff
tlxes on necessares imposed by the last Congress. President Taft
has been forced TO take a definite stand and he has placed himself
squarely with the stand patters and with the interests that framed
the PayneAldrich tariff. The Regular Republicans in Congress have
practically declared against any tariff reductions and during the
special session have steadfastly championed the interests of the
trusts. The Democratic House has instituted Investigations that
have shown up startling conditions in the executive departments,
and it has disclosed the plot by which Controller bay, the gateway
to Alaskan riches, was handed over TO a promoter representing the
Morgan.Guggenheim interests. The discredit of the first two years
of the Taft administration has been added to, with a much greater
loss of prestige for a president who was elected in 1908 by a
phenomenal majority. The echoes of the special session will be
heard in 1912

Examine Contract Again.

To the Editor OF the Evening Star:
What has become of the contract to
pave the Plank road with wood block
and against which a local civil en-
gineer protested because he claimed
the would not be getting
what they would pay for? The last
heard OF the affair was at n meet
ing of the Board of Fr~eeholders, when
the objections of the engineer were
literally thrown into the waste basket
There is ample room for Investigation
of this contract and the county en-
gineer who sanctioned the contract un-
willingly proved his when he said the
defect could be righted by applying
sand to the block pavement.
II the oil called for In the contract
will ooze after having been applied to
the blocks it is plain there is some
defect in the preparation. Engineers
say the proper ingredients with which
the blocks should be i~mpregnated will
not form the sticky, tarry substance
ON the surface Of the road. If this is
true then the oil in the objectionable
contract, which the county engineer
admits will not make a smooth road,
is not the proper oil.
One of your correspondents very cor
rectly asks who is going to pay for the
sand to be spread over the road as
described by the county engineer. But
why have any sand at all2 II the road
is what 1t SHOULD be no sand will be
required, and this sanding" PROPOSE
ton is termed asinine by the automo-
bile men, who claim the sand will blow
all over the road and into the faces Of
the riders. Let the Board of Freehold
ers take another good look into this
contract before letting 1t go into effect.
Also they might get the opinions of
several civil engineers in a controversy
like this, for It is quite probable the
one man might not be infallible.

fH HERE are problems and mysteries in tax assessments that
the ordinary mind cannot fathom. Here in Kearny the as
SCISSORS fixed a certain assessed value per acre upon a large
tract of meadow land. The owners appealed to the State Board
of Equalization and that sapient body made a large reduction in
the local assessment. The land is tax rated at from $3.50 to $3.50,
with 81 800 an acre for the best tracts. But in a mortgage recently
filed It is found that the landlord company gets a loan at the rate of
,$1,11S.5O per acre, and as mortgage loans are not made on more
than 80 per cent. of value the estimate must be that the land is
worth on an average about $4,000 per acre. Probably, though, the
State Board of Equalization knows more about land values than
the concern that lends its money on the land, though there is some
reasonable doubt about that.

OUR ELECTRICAL STORMS.

c1a HE intensity and violence of the electrical storms that have
recently passed over this section of the country are almost
without parallel in the past. We have always read of
cyclones and tornadoes in the West with a sense of security in our
own favored climate, with its comparatively mild weather disturb
ances. The theory has been advanced that the immense generation
of electricity for lighting, heat and power would have it's effect in
electrical storms. but the reply to that was that all the power gen
Grated in New Jersey in a year might not be equal to that contained
in one electrical stormcloud. b in conquering the forces of
nature may it not be possible for maj to draw his supplies of cleo
trical power direct from the air and the earth, instead of from coal
and water power? Why should all this electrical energy go to
waste? p
