GARMENT WORKERS BACK
Philadelphia, Dec. 31.-The gar
ment makers strike, which has been
fought for "a weeks, was declared off
when results of two days balloting
showed GIT in favor of going back to
work and SIG opposed. Only third
of the strikers voted.
At one time during the strike 5000
men and women were out and prac-
tically every mill was closed up.
About thirty employers left the man
ufacturers' association and made
peace with the strikers. This left
about 5000 men and women still out.
Three men were killed as direct
result of the strike in picket fights.
The state commission of labor, the

EAT ALL THE TIME
1t Appeared That Way to Record
Scribe When He Called on the
Hunterdon County Boys.
PAN OF EGGS In ONE OFFICE

The editor and business manager
of the Record took little trip the
other day. The great newspaper
publishers of the country are either
travelling in Europe or cruising in
the South Seas in their private
yachts, SO we thought it up to US
to do something. Having already
visited Mount Airy and New Hope
enough to tone down the excitement
of such trip, we ventured into
larger fields.
The first stop was Pennington,
and the impression we gathered of
that burgh was that the metropolitan
editors have nothing on our county
seat brethren when it comes to
getting enough to eat.
Brother Abbott, of the Hunterdon
Republican, was reported to be eat
ing. We didn't feel so much sur
prised at that, because the Repub-
licans are supposed to belong to
that plutocratic class that can afford
to eat, even in these times of high
living.
Henry Martin Voorhees,, the
genial and smiling editor of the
Observation-Disclosures, was reported
at lunch, so we knew at once that
it was he who really belonged to the
plutocratic class, because only the
rich can afford to have lunch at
midday. The difference between
dinner and lunch is that the latter
costs twice as much for half the
quantity.
One more effort brought out the
information that Editor Killgore
had not returned from his dinner
and as it was time to be past even
the toothpick stage, we felt worried.
One man down the street, told US

same and for repairs to existing
school buildings
In September, 1912, the Board
of School Estimate certified to the
Common Council of the City of
Lambertville, that it had appropriate
ed the sum of $4,000 90 for the
purpose of purchasing certain
site and for the purpose of erecting
a school building thereon, and that
such sum of money was requested
for such purposes. for furnishing the
building and for repairs to existing
school buildings.
The Common Council was request
ed to take proper measures to raise
said sum of money for such purposes.

estimated to be necessary for such
purpose or purposes.
By the same Section, it is made
the duty of the Board of School
Estimate to fix and determine the
amount necessary and to certify
such amount to the Common Council
or other financial body.
By the same Section, it is pro-

airy for the annual running expenses,
but that for the purchase of land
and erection of buildings the Com
mon Council MAY appropriate the
moneys.

Our Prison Systems.

In an address before the Amer
lean Press Association, deliver
ed at Indianapolis by Governor
Eugene M. Foss, of Massachus-
etts, some interesting observa-
lions are made and figures pre-
sented. He deals with the pris-
ons of his own state, which, he
says, is leader in the work of
improving prison systems. His
criticisms were directed against
those reactionary interests,
which, in every section of the
country, oppose and belittle ev-
cry attempt at improvement.

Strange enough he states that
when he forced prison reforms
upon the political machinery Of
Massachusetts, at every step
these reforms were opposed by
partisan leaders. The startling
statement is made, and the gov
ernor admits that it caused him
amaZement, that more than one
third Of all the commitments in
Massachusetts were for debt.
This statement must be quail
fed, because in reality there is
no Imprisonment for debt in
this country. But of the 81
454 commitments in one year
more than 70 per cent were for
petty offenses. These were di-
vided into two groups. Eleven
thousand one hundred and fifty
six had definite sentences of less
than six months: 10,371 were
not sentenced to prison, but
were incarcerated with the 9TH

same treatment, because, at the

could not pay the small fine inn

a great error. "Let me add,

This is pathetically true. Our
fellow-beings who are thrown
into the scrap heap we look upon
as being wholly worthless and
vicious, while scrap metal has a
definite value that makes it
worth while selecting and saw
ing. But in our stupidity and
indifference we give less consid-

know that this condition of af-
fairs is being rapidly put be-
hind us, and that a better era
and more humanitarian methods
are being introduced in our pris-
on systems. We cannot do toe
much along these lines, nor car
we do it too quickly. AS a peo-
pie we have been negligent and

MEET

Another smoker will be held
in Tacoma on the 18th of April.
The Naval Militia, a state or
ganization, proposes to stage the
Joe Bonds-Frank Farmer bout at
the Armory as the main event of
an elimination tourney proposed
among themselves.
Joe Bonds has accepted the OPP
portunity to appear against Farm
err and will start to training at
once. Frank Farmer has not
accepted as yet, but his consent
to the match is expected without
fail.
Bonds Is a member of the
the Naval Militia, and the off
GERS of the athletic association
are anxious to see the Tacoma
boy get another chance at the
Kapowsin man. Farmer recently
won a hair-line decision over
Bonds, and since then many at
tempts have been made to re-
match the men. An offer has
been wired to Farmer at Kapow-
sin and his acceptance or refusal
is expected today.
Besides the main bout, a num-
Der of other bouts between well
known boxers will be staged.
