Rattle Notes.

The Democratic leaders in trying to
solve the Judgeship and Prosecutorship
problems, are finding they have many
pegs and only few holes. Beside this,
some of the pegs are very irregularly
shaped, which adds to their difficulties.
OF course, none of the pegs are crooked;
of course not.
1t has been suggested, that as the mat
ter to be solved is, in the last analysis,
merely question of attaching number
of patriots to the pay roll, that solution
would be furnished by having the Legis-
lature re-establish the old system of hay
ing three judges, and appointing three OF
the candidates as judges; then have the
Legislature provide that the Prosecutor
should have two assistants, and appoint,
from the field of candidates, three men
to fill these positions; then, if there were
any other pressing demands, they might
| fill the positions of court crier, county
detective, probation officer and clerk to
the grand jury out of the other appli-
cants. This plan could be advocated on
the grounds of Democratic economy, be-
cause it would save great deal of
Democratic trouble.
The reported alliance between George
NJ. Hillman and James Mercer Davis,
referred to last week, seems to have been
| broken, if it ever existed. This can
| readily be inferred from the remarks
| which are being made by the friends OF
Mr.. Davis as against the candidacy OF
Mr.. Hillman and also by the remarks
which are being made by the friends OF
Mr.. Hillman against the candidacy OF
Mr.. Davis. OF course, neither Mr.. Hill
man nor Mr.. Davis are at all responsible
for these remarks; of course not. These
men are great friends and NAV yet be
working together.
Some of the candidates for the position
who reside out of Mount Holly have
positively stated that they would not
| take up their residence at the county
seat, even if they were thereby assured
of the position. This will have ten
dency to eliminate them from the con
test. Others of the candidates have eX
pressed their willingness to move any
where, in or out of the county, if they
can only get the position. Their princi
pal aim seems to be to have official bust
ness with the county collector once eacl
| month.
AS the holiday season is approaching
it is hoped that there will be a Suspen
sion of hostilities among the candidate,
until after the first of the year, but jus
1T present each Oh Tie cdnuludJeS Seeln'
determined to give it to his opponent il
the same place where the Thanksgiving
turkey received the axe.
The rumor that some of the Democratic
lawyers have, since election, cancelled
their orders for suit of winter clothe
with the idea in view that, if appointed
they will wear.gowns, and under thes
wear any old suit of clothes, is rumoreC
in some circles.
There is one thing sure, that this con
test will not be without profit to tn
citizens of the county, because, as tn
campaign goes on, the people are begin
ming TO hear and learn things about tn,
different candidates that they never hear
before. If some of the stories are true,
is wonder that the men referred to ar

What are You Getting E?

Have you compared your gas bill for
the month ending November of this
year with that for the corresponding
time last year? If so, what do you find
Are you getting gas or are you paying
for air pumped through your meter
We have heard of several cases where
the gas bills have increased very ma
terially and the consumers say there is
not any reason for the advance. One
householder who has been very careful
about the use of gas and resting content
with the idea that this months bill
would be less than that of last month
was astonished to find an increase that
was not at all encouraging. This same
condition seems to prevail in many
parts of the town.
Taking a personal bill as a sample
we find that for the month ending No
vember, 1912, we paid, at 81 per thou
sand, S1.90. This month, the bill is
$2.16. Last year, for November, we
burned 1900 feet; this year, 2400 feet, and
at 10 cents less per thousand feet we will
pay 26 cents more for the light. 1t is OF
no use to complain to the managers OF
the gas company here. The only re-
Spouse is that they go by the meter and
| if desired the meter will be examined
and tested. But that does not remedy
the situation, the bills continue to CREEP
up.
| OF course the gas company can con
| tend that the situation this year may be
entirely different from last year. more
lights may have been burned, but il
our case we are not willing to admit
this.
That the stuff sent through the pipe.
as gas is not up to standard is asserted
my many. The noise made as it rushe,
through the burners is annoying ant
leads to the impression that there is
more air than there is illuminant.
Then the question arises, "What arr
you going to do about it? Possibly W,
are the only party with grievance, bu
if you are in the same boat why no
combine and take some action to remed,
the situation? Look at your gas bill
and compare with those of simila
months prior to the reduction to 80 cents
If you find that you are paying a larg
increase why not get together and pre-
sent the matter to the Public Utilit,
: Commission? No use in one or two pei
| sons taking such action. Show that tn
, complaint is justified on the part of tn
majority and see if something cannC
be done that will give us better servic
l if not better prices.

Another Grade Accident.

That three persons were not killed at
IL o'clock Wednesday night is miracle,
and very fortunate thing for the occu-
pants of a wagon that was driven into the
rear cars of west bound freight train at
the Pine street crossing, Mount Holly.
Thomas Assay, George Witcraft and his
wife were on their way to their homes in
Nincentown, after witnessing the parade
in Mount Holly. The train was on its
way to Camden and the occupants OF
the wagon kept right on, driving against
the car. The horse had its neck and
one leg broken, the wagon was cut
to splinters and the occupants were
badly hurt. Medical attention was soor
secured and it was found that the two
men and woman should be removed t
the Burlington County Hospital. Mrs
Witcraft was injured internally and haC
her spine hurt. George Witcraft received
sprained ankle and broken collarbone
and Assays leg was broken. All of tn
party were badly bruised in addition t
the special injuries mentioned.
Just at present it looks as if the rail
road company would be called upon t
pay some damages.
Witcraft, one of the men in the ACE
dent, has gone to his home in Nincen
town. Assay died at the hospital o
Friday. 1t is said the certificate of deaf
gives the cause as chronic alcoholism
There have been so many stories abou
the accident that Coroner Worrell hs
decided to hold an inquest and it wi

AS soon as the announcement OF Mar
shall Alcott's resignation was made there
was rush in all quarters by those who
wished to be his successor. Some of the
candidates went on a still hunt, while
others went into the race with an assur-
anee that it was all over but getting the
commission. One man is said to have
gone so far as to hand in his letter of
withdrawal from a firm with which he
had been connected for long time, and
had picked out one of his deputies. A
trip to Washington, however, must have
caused change to come over his plans,
as the letter of withdrawal is said to
have been recalled. 1t is question who
will have the naming of the next Mar
shall. Senators Hughes and MARITIME are
saidIto be at loggerheads on the subject
of awarding political plums, and the
matter appears to be up to Joseph Tum-
ultv and President Wilson. Having had
the Office of Marshal in Burlington
county for some time, there is a feeling
in some circles-principally those occu-
pied by the candidates-that the place
should not be allowed to escape from this
territory, but Congressman Baker does
not appear to have 1.-The strength to pull
it off that way.
