FRANK RANKIN
CRIES 70 SEE MOTHER

Mother! Mother!" Is the pittful
cry that is heard by the city hospital
attendants from little William Ran
kin, fourteen years. son Of Frank
Rankin, of 395 Mechanic street, who
severely fractured his skull in a fall
from a building last Thursday, and
was nearly fatally injured. Day af-
ter day the little fellow calls for his
mother and the nurses can only
promise that she will come by and
by.
Mrs. Rankin left the former part
of last week to attend the burial of
her mother in Canada. Her mother
lived in a small rural community to
which place communication is hard
to gain. Though kilograms and let
ters have been sent to her, all eff
forts to reach her has been in vain,
and she remains in ignorance Of the
accident which has befallen her son.
Mr.. Rankin cannot imagine what hah
caused her detention so long, and
why she has not received his COM
munications.

SOLUTION FOR
PRISON LABOR
Head of ReformatorY Ad-
vances an Idea.

Institutions within the State OF
| New Jersey may yet return an IN
come to the State, counties, or NUM-
cipalities maintaining them, II the
| plan advocated by DR.. Frank Moore,
president of the New Jersey Confer
ence of Charities and Correction, Is
carried to its fullest development.
At the twelfth annual meeting Of
the conference, to be held in Plain
field February 2, 8 and 4, DR.. Moore
will emphasize the benefits of the
state Use SYSTEM" which favors
free labor in New Jersey by prohibit
ing contract prison or institutional
labor, and seeks to produce within
the institutions such articles as tax.
payers money now buys for commu-
nifty needs. The forthcoming confer
ence will include an exhibit of arti-
Giles made at various institutions.
Managers of the institutions are de-
sirous of interesting State, county,
and city officers in wares they have
for sale, and in the standard quality
and in the prices, so that those who
have the spending of taxpayers
money will be induced to purchase
of the institutions.
New Jersey institutions, according
to DR.. Moore, are now supported by
appropriations from taxes upon cor"
porations. If the State Use System
can be developed to its utmost the
products of the work of inmates can
be made a source of revenue that will
| go direct to the treasures of the
municipalities, counties, or to the
State, thus reducing direct taxes
/ upon the homes and industries in
! New Jersey.
DR.. Moore said recently that New
Jersey institutions could now pro-
vide iron work, clothing, shoes, car
pentry products, and that in particu-
lar lockers for the State reformatory
for women at Clinton had been pro-
vided by the work of institution in
mates,

was handled in the same manner, The
spring was stin enough to draw the
wire up to nearly Its usual tautness,
and yet 1t was elastic enough to take
up all the jerks and unusual pulls that
formerly made SO much noise. Every.

POLICE LODCER
LEFT A "CALL"
Sergeant Forgot and Guest
Missed Appointment.

Rules of the Hotel de Luxe" in
the police station have changed
much to the dismay of several of its
guests. One of the new ones, whlch
is being most stringently enforced,
is the prohibition of daily "drunks
between sunrise and sunset. Charles
Clegg, a regular and one of the |
est dodgers, was the first to break
this rule yesterday. After being out
but an hour yesterday morning he
found Perth Amboy sidewalks entire
ly too narrow to be comfortable. Al
though there is q smooth walk ten
feet wide leading to police headquar-
tiers, he couldn't help breaking n
of Jaintor Matty Egan's rules ana
stepped on the grass.
At the door of the station Clegg
was taken by the arm and assisted to
the cell department by Sergeant Dun
ham upon orders of Chief or Ponce
Burke. He objected in vain, being
DESTROYS of sleeping on the floor ne
was accustomed to. This morning
Recorder Pickersgill lectured him
about the new rules and said another
violation would mean a three months,
jail term. The court said "drunks'
might pass at night When unseen
but not in the daytime.
Bell service has been dispensed
with at the ode Luxe" owing to the
high cost of living. Patty Garland
wac the first to discover this. He
came in feeling better than when he
went out and left an order with a
desk sergeant to be called at l o'clock
In the morning. The order was not
obeyed and Patty lost his appoint
ment. The s%ergeants are daily acting
as clerk of the court, but they have
refused to be hotel clerk for the "de
Luxe patrons.

fREEHOLDERS
BILL CHANGED
Legislature Rushss Through
Measure Relieving Situation
(From the NEWS Cor~espondent.>

NHTO" we HH q y 'OoPo"~N"N'
Trenton Jan. 3O.-Soon after it
had been rushed through both
branches Of the Legislature under
suspended rules, the bill by AS
semblyman Zisgen, Of Bergen coun-
ty, correcting the defects in the law
governing the small Boards of Free
holders in Bergen, Mercer, Morris,
Sussex and Union counties was ap-
proved by Governor Wilson. II
takes its place on the statute books
as Chapter No. 2 Of the laws OF
1918. After Governor Wilson had
affixed his signature to the measure
which blasts the hopes Of the old
Freebooter Boards in their efforts
to thwart the will of the people for
reform in county government AS
semblyman Zisgen had this to say:
"The freeholder act just signed
bv the governor ~validates the cleo
ton Of members of the small Boards
of Freeholders and constitutes them
the only legal boards In the coun-
ties affected. Whatever arguments
the members Of the larger boards
advanced have been disposed Of by
this bill, and there is now no valid
reason why they should continue to
try to hold office.
"If they respect the law, as they
would have the public believe they
| should withdraw all further opposi-
ton to the new boards In the sew
oral counties. The fact that this
bill was among the first to pass both
Houses under suspension of rules
and was signed by Governor Wilson
forthwith. should be a sufficient pro-
nunciamento to the members Of the
old boards that ven the Republt-
cans in the Legislature are not In
sympathy with their efforts to de-
feat the popular will.
$50 far as the pending cases in
the Supreme Court are concerned,
believe there is no doubt as to the
result, but even II the old law
should not be sufficient to sustain
the new boards, the %pleadings may
be amended and the new law just
enacted included in the cases, sc
that the court may decide the case
on the new law, if it should appear
to be necessary.
'It is regrettable that the mem.
bers of the old boards went 10 fan
as to make 1t necessary to put the
entire lawmaking machinery Of the
state In motion to convex to them
an intelligent understanding of the
sentiment of the people In this state
against them. There is now no rea
son why the county collector ir
these counties should not recognize
warrants of the new board and pay
whatever bills are passed by the new
Freeholders."
