their business is curtailed, as because

is no other interest so central to the

Gus miasma Ten or twelve years ago
the country was torn and excited by
an agitation which shook the very
foundation of her political life. Those
who had power, whether in business or
in politics, were almost universally
looked upon with suspicion and little
attempt was made to distinguish the
just from the unjust They in their
turn seemed to distrust the people and
to wish to limit their control. There
was an ominous antagonism between
classes. Capital and labor were in
sharp conflict without, respect of ac-
commodation between them. interests
harshly clashed which still have CO.
operated.
This was not merely the work of ir-
responsible agitators. There were real
wrongs which cried out to be right
ed and fearless men had called atten-
tion to them demanding that they be
dealt with by law. We were living un-
der a tariff which had been purpose
ly contrived to confer private favors

power, and that all to fertile soil,

jungle of the monopoly had sprung

Food Law KiIled'-Dr. Wiley;
Wants Measure Altered Now

WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.-Dr. Har-
vey w. Wiley, the pure food expert
and former chief of the bureau of
chemistry, declared yesterday that
the decision of the United States Su-
preme Court in the bleached -four
case had killed the food and drugs
act, otherwise known as the pure food
law. Members of Congress expressed
views along the same line, and indi-
Gated that they would take steps to
save the law by additional legislation.
THE Supreme Court" said DIR.
Wiley, gave a body blow to the drug
section of the law when it announced
in the Johnson cancer case that the
clause forbidding false and misleading
statements applied only to the con-
stituents of the medicine and not to
its drug properties. Congress at once
proceeded to correct the fault pointed
out by enacting a clause as an amend
ment, bringing the curative claims
into the scope of the law
"I sincerely hope that similar action
will be taken in the case of the
present decision. To permit the un-
restricted addition of poisons to foods
unless such can be specifically in
furious paralyzes that section of the
law relating to harmful authorizations
as completely as the former decision
paralyzed the drug section.
In these two decisions the Supreme
Court has killed the food and drug
law"

CAN'T COLLECT ON
BURNED BUNGALOW
George S. Ridner, Foe of Con-
stables, Gets No Insurance
on Suoasunna Building.
Especial to the Newark start

SUMMIT. Feb 26.-Having sue
cessfully resisted four attempts to
sell his house hold goods at sheriff's
sale, George S. Ridner, who resides
at 300 Springfield avenue, yesterday
was plunged into more trouble when
he learned that he will not receive
any insurance on his summer bunga-
low which was totally destroyed by
fire in Succasunna few days ago.
In the destruction of the building
and its contents Mr.. Ridner's loss IS
said to be about $500. He had the
building insured for $4,000, but owing
to the fact that the house had been
unoccupied for several months and
the alleged failure of MIR. Ridner to
notify the insurance company of this
condition, the company yesterday no.
tilted Ridner that the insurance con-
tract had been broken and therefore
the company is not liable.
The fire is believed by the Dover
to have been of incendiary
origin, it was said today, the Dover
police expect soon to run down the
hrebug.
AS told in the Evening Star yester-
day argument will be heard by Su-
preme Court Justice Bergen in Eliza

He made them get out, and only
the threats of Mr.. Scott to have him
fired induced the chauffeur to take
the noted couple to a hotel.

TELLS VALUE OF
WEIGHTS BUREAU
Union County Sealer Warns
Summit Housewives Against
Deceptive Scales.

SUMMIT, Feb. 26.-"Weights and
Measures and Their Importance in
the Business of Housekeeping" was
the subject on which Union County
Sealer of Weights and Measures Au-
gustus W. Schwartz spoke before a
large audience of women in the Wom-
ans Institute in Maple street yester-
day afternoon.
Mr.. Schwartz told of the benefits
which had been derived by the house,
holder since the enactment of the
law establishing the State and county
weights and measures department. To
Mrs Robert L. Stevens, of Hoboken,
Mr.. Schwartz gave the credit for be-
ginning the movement which resulted
in the law.
Prior to 1911 the speaker said, Mrs.
Stevens had made an exhaustive in
vestigation into the question Of how
poor persons were being dealt with by
merchants, particularly in Hudson
county. in respect to honest weight
and measure in foodstuffs. So de-
plorable were the conditions found to
exist at that time that Mrs. Stevens
established a fund for municipal re-
search as a memorial to her husband,
Mr.. Schwartz said.
1.-THE business of housekeeping is
the leading business in this country
today. Not even the Standard Oil
business compares in
with that of housekeep-
ers," the speaker declared. Some
are not good business
and this is shown in the homo
where, for instance, there is no scales
Or when the woman allows a mer-
chant to include in the weight of her
purchase wrapping paper or con-
tainers or in purchasing ice by the
stated.
The question of DO merchants
mean to be dishonest" Mr.. Schwartz
answered by saying that it has been
shown that but 5 per cent. of bust
ness men have been proven to be
dishonest, while 90 per
,ent. of the merchants were forced to
De dishonest because of the dishonest
,ractises of their competitors.

SCHOOL TAXFOR
MADISON FAVORED
Residents, However, May OPP
pose $500 Appropriation
for Special Glass.
Ispeciai to the Newark star.I

MADISON, Feb. 26.-With the ap-
broach of the annual school election
on March II residents of Madison are
being reused. This year the members
OF the Board of Education are asking
for special tax of $4,000, an amount
which was voted down at last year
meeting. In addition to this, as a
subsequent request the board asks
an extra appropriation of $500 for "a
teacher to do special work among
the backward pupils, who. 1t Is
stated are retarding many OF the
classes.
Last year an opposition was or
ganized both to the proposed appro-
priation of $4,000 and again to the
appropriation when it was cut TO
SIG, 500. IL Is learned on good autho-
rity that no opposition VIII be raised
by the same parties who tried to cut
down the appropriation last year.
When asked for purposes of verifiea-
ton whether he thought any anti
movement would be started. u. L.
Cook, one of the board members,
stated that according to Information
received that it is not likely that
there will be any opposition this year
to the appropriation proper, which,
he stated. amply provides for the
needs of the school There may, how

asked for a new teacher to do special
work.
The members Of the board are not
able to agree on the additional
amount, and it was submitted to the
people for decision. Mr.. Cook and
Mr.. Van Etten were against and
Mr.. Partridge, Mr.. Harmed and Mr..
Miller in favor of the new teacher.
The terms of Mr.. Cook and Mr..
Miller expire at the coming annual
meeting. When asked if he would
again stand for the trusteeship, Mr..
Cook said: my stand is just as l
told the members of the board. If l
am elected l will not refuse to serve, |
but I would much rather that some
one else accept the nomination.
