The EiEhop's Tar Water.

The Endorsement Of nostrum by a
clergyman. above all by bishop, has
for hundl eds Of years been all that
was necessary to obtain recognition for
such a remedy from believing public.
Bishop Berkeley set all Britain to
drinking tar water. Supposedly hav-
ing received benefit from the use Of tar
water when i'll of the collie, he publish
ed work on THE Virtues of Tar Wa
ter" on which he said he had bestowed
more pains than on any OF his produc-
tions, and a few months before his
death he published his last work, Fur
ther Thoughts on Tar Water" That
was in 1853. That tar water had not
passed out of favor in rural England
in the time of Charles Dickens is made
evident In laughable incident In
Great Expectations" where Pip, by n
substitution Of tar water In bottle o.
wine. gives Uncle Pumblechook, corn
chandler and scotsman, opportunity to
take a long swig of Bishop Berkeley's
cure-all. much to that eminent seeds
mans astonishment and disgust.-Pall
Mall Gazette.

STATE ECONOMY BILLS
REPORTED tAV0RABLY
(From The NEWS Correspondent. }

Trenton, March 19:-Four of the
bills by Senator Edge, of Atlantic,
recommended by the State Economy
and Efficiency Commission, were re-
ported favorably in the senate yes
terday afternoon. One of them abol-
ishes the office of the chief of the
State Bureau of Statistics and
merges the department with that of
the Department of Labor. If this
bill should become a law it would
prevent State Senator Low, of Ocean
county, a Democrat, from assuming
the Office of chief of the bureau. Sem
ator Low was appointed to the post
by Governor Wilson before he re-
signed the governorship. The pres
ent chief is Winton C. Garrison, of
Essex county, a Republican and for
merly treasurer of the Republican
State Committee. The salary of the
chief is $2,50O a year. 1t is not re-
garded as likely that this bill will
pass.
Another of the Edge bills provides
that the clerical and engineering
work necessary to complete the prep
arations by this state for the con-
struction of the ship canal across the
state shall be done by the Depart
ment of Inland Waterways. This is
practically merging of two depart
ments in the interest of economy.
A third economy and efficiency
measure reorganizes the Employers
Liability Commission and provides
that it may call upon the State De-
partment of Labor for all clerical
assistance, thus effecting a saving.
The fourth bill of the series gives
to the Department of Labor control
of the location of elevators in all
public buildings. Senator Edge in
troduced them as the president of
the State Commission. The commits
sion claims that if all It's recon-
mendations are enacted into law the
state will be saved several hundred
thousand dollars annually.

Committee.
Similar talks to those the Gov
ernor had with Mr.. Martin took
place between the executive and the
other Hudson assemblymen named.
This morning the Governor sent for
other members of the Hudson delega-
ton and after seeing them said he
thought progress was being made.
Governor Fielder's attention was
directed to the telegram which May
or Wittpenn sent to President VIII
son yesterday afternoon, charging
that deliberate effort was being
made to falsify his position on the
jury reform bill. Mayor Wittpenn's s
message said he was pledged to the
Zisgen jury commission bill, with an
honest referendum, which he under
stood to be the position of the Pres
ident.
This dispatch was sent soon after
the Governors secretary, l.. Edward
Hermann. had sent a telegram to
President Wilson on behalf of the
Governor, urging the President to
use his influence with Mayor Witt
penn to get him to support the Gov
ernor in the latter's efforts to put
through jury commission bill
without a referendum.
Il cannot imagine what the Mayor
means when he talks of falsifying.' y
Governor Fielder stated. 81 am sure
the situation was clearly stated In
the telegram that Mr.. Hermann sent
to the President, and ! am certain
that | did not misrepresent the
Mayor in anything that l have said
oncerning our conference"

"My fourteen year-old daughter was
