Patronize Home Enterprise.

Recently we have received state
ments from local business men,
some printed out of town and 9TH
ers stamped with a rubber stamp.
We don't blame the rubber stamp
man so much; # that's his style,
let him have it. But we cannot un-
derstand how a merchant in this
town can send elsewhere to have a
little simple job of printing done
when we can do it Just as well or
better, just as cheap or cheaper,
right her. at home. We have estab-
lished a printing plant here costing
five or six thousand dollars, which
gives employment to five men. Our
payroll is about fifty dollars week,
practically all of which is spent in
Kingstree. We pay taxes on our
printing plant and little home be-
sides. But the strongest claim we
can advarce is the persistent work
we have done, year in, year out, for
a dozen years, never stopping or tlr-
ing, helping to build up our town,
devoting columns and pages to its
up-building and fostering every en-
terprise ever established or even
projected here. We ask in all fair
ness, what has any out-of-town
printing concern ever done to help
build up Kingstree?
Moreover, the very men who send
their work out of town-some of
them-are constantly urging us to
impress on our readers the necessity
of patronizing home enterprise.
Where is their consistency?
We feel natural delicacy in re-
ferring to these matters, but when
such striking instances OF inconsls-
tency and lack of community inter
est come home to US, we would do
ourself, and the town as well, an
injustice to let them pass unheeded.
When a dollar goes away from town
for anything that can be bought
here, Just that amount goes out OF
local circulation forever. Did you
ever think of that? 1t would pay
in the long run to patronize home
dealers even at little higher
price, but we do not ask that.
All we ask is a square deal-a
chance to figure with the out-of-
town fellow.
We are satisfied that our friends

NO MONEY FROM
SALE OF HOME
100000 Proceeds to Pay
Debts-SaiIs for Europe for

CAMDEN, June 9.-From proceeds Of
the sale of his p~alatial home at
Gloucester, on the banks of the Della
ware river, William j. Thompson did
not enjoy a dollar. So he told Referee
in Bankruptcy OFT here yesterday.
Mr.. Thompson said he received $780,
900 from the government, which bought
the property as a site for an immi-
grant station. OF this sum-. 100000 went
to pay off a mortgage on the house, to-
gether with several years of back
taxes. The remainder wen to the
West Jersey Trust Company, $4,000;
Security Trust Company. $4,000 or
$15,0 900, n First National Bank,
$10,0 900, etc.
I'm less than a week ii was all gone,'
said Mr.. Thompson.
He declared he has received large
sums of money from various sources
since the first of the year, but he had
paid out about everything he had re-
ceived in cash. 1t went toward the
rug mill, the ice plant and for "expen-
sive living"
There were about a thousand notes."

every day and I reduced many of them.
That is where most of the money went.

PATERSON SAVES BY
THE APPOINTIVE PLAN.
Mayor McBride's Views Upon
Commission Government.

ELIZABETH, June 9.-Mayor An
drew f. Mcbride and City Counsel Ed
ward F. Mercy, of Paterson, last night
old the Board of Trade and others that
not onl had their city's three commits
sions administered its affairs efficiently,
but had also saved money for Paterson.
I'VE are in a position at the present
time to redeem every bond,' said
Mayor Mcbride.
Mr.. Mercy believed Paterson's sys-
tenn much preferable to the plan which
can be adopted through the Walsh
law, in that it placed the responsibility
for the actions of the commissioners on
the executive who appointed them, and
Counsel Mercy elaborated this state
ment by saying, in reply to a question,
that if Paterson were called Upon to
vote for a similar system at the polls
the plan would be adopted almost
unanimously. He regretted that the
plan did not include an excise commits
sion. The aldermen at present grant
the saloon licenses.

GERAN BILL
QUESTIONS UP To
States COUNSEL
George M. Mccarthy Points Out
Apparent inconsistencies
in Measure.

JERSEY CITY, June George NJ.
Mccarthy, secretary of the Hudson
County Republican County Committee
and a member of the State Board of
Taxation, has written a letter to
Attorney-Genera Wilson. pointing out
some nconsistencies in the Geran cleo
ton law:
He asks how shall the vacancy be
filled in either of the following cases:
l. In a district overwhelmingly indie
pendent, soeialistic or Prohibition and
whose few Republican and Democratic
voters decline to cerve on the election
board?
?. In a decidedly Democratic district
where there is no available Republican
eligibles, or vice versa?
3. In a redistricted or exclusive dis
triet of homes and private residences
where no one can be induced to serve?
He says:
Il personally believe the one-year
residence clause to be an excellently
just feature of the new law, but it
should not have stopped there, it
should have provided for probable con-
'F9N'N y 1 iNill5 Nv SO0hht5
courts to appoint from the citizens of
the county, regardless of residence or
political utilization, in all cases where
no voter of the district can be found
eligible or willing to serve,
THE appended references to the law l
have respectfully prepared for your
consideration.

Section seven provides that If in any
election district there are no applicants
