THE Geran law has put to shame many
men Of excellent character and high
standing In the several communities. All
over the state grand juries have been find
Ing indictments-over fifty being found in
Essex county the other day-against can
didates whose names were on the ticket at
the recent election and who neglected to
ale statements regarding their election ex-
penses. In practically every case there
was no intent to violate the law, but mere
ly neglect or misapprehensfon of the re-
quirements of the new statute. Some of
the candidates had fled one statement, but
the Geran act requires two separate state
ments, and they were put In the light of
being law breakers. There ia a certain
disgrace attached to being indicted
Every honest man suffers from his name
appearing on the docket of the criminal
court. OF course the Judges are lenient
In these election cases, because the intent
to disobey the law is lacking, and light
fine Is adequate punishment, but the
stigma and the court record remain to
plague the innocent offender -Camden

TUESDAY, JANUARY 80 1912

AFTKR serving in state prison for 10
years, Alfred Clymer walked out of the
institution on Thursday. Clymer was
sentenced to life sentence for numbering
. woman In Burlington. His first SEN
tence was death, but that penalty
was changed to life sentence. Just at
this time the ssubject of abolition of the
death penalty Is being considered the
case Of Clymer is of considerable interest.
One of the arguments in favor of doing
away with capital punishment is that life
imprisonment is greater punishment
and secures just as good results as hang
ing or the electric chair produce. But
when 1t Is considered that in Just such
cases IS this there is chance to have a
pardon or the parole system applied 1t
may well be asked If the more severe
punishment is not the best. The murder
committed by Clymer was one that did
not entitle him to any sympathy. He not
only killed "a defenceless woman but he
murdered her while she was at her prayers
Just how the community IL to be bene-
fitted by his release from the state prison
Is not at present discernible.

New York stock Market.

Wall ST., New York, Aug. 17.-STOCKS-
The stock market closed heavy. What
is popularity known a healthy reaction
occurred in today's stock market. Open
ing prices were slightly irregular in the
direction of betterment but a. selling move
ment of formidable proportion in the final
hour reduced all gains to material net
losses. Canadian Pacific was the weakest
of the railway issues, with pronounced
heaviness in Lehfgh Valley and Reading.
Later other standard shares gave way.
Industrials were well supported at the
outset but declined later with the general
movement
A two point decline in Canadian Pacific
following its weak close in London was a
feature of the opening stock market here.
This was offset by one point advances in
Louisville and Nashville, General Electric
and Consolidated Gas with strength in
more active issues, including Copper and
Steel.
Selling pressure on increased offerings
impaired general heaviness shown after
the opening with a further decline in
Canadian Pacific and marked weakness In
CoaIers.
