The annual booklet issued by the
city OF Amsterdam, giving statistics
OF local affairs. shows that the popu.
lation increase in 1914 Of nearly a..
O00-making the total population over
600.0OO-was almost double the gain
during each of several years Just pre-
ceding, and more than double the an
nual gain decade ago. The "a lead.
ing hotels had during the year los, 224
guests. Of whom 1884 were Ameri.
cans. The number of people carried
on the street cars was 100,951, 476;
fares received. $1,738.000. being less
than 2 cents fare. The general fare
is Q cents, but on certain short
stretches it is less. Other sources OF
revenue brought the total receipts to
$2,O93,000, from which, after paying
operating and maintenance expenses,
$4,000 was turned into the city treas
ury and $4,000 into the reserve fund.

Ocean County Affairs.

The small board Of freebooter referen-
dunn was defeated by just four votes in
Ocean county last Tuesday. This is the
third time the referendum was held in
the county, and each time the PROPOSE
ton has gained over the preceding one.
The first vote was about nine years ago,
when the small board plan was buried
beneath an avalanche of votes. Then it
was voted upon in July. 1914, in q special
election, and came in 288 votes behind.
with total vote of 1900. This wear it
lacked i've votes Of majority, and a
change In three votes would have carried
It, though the total vote was more than
1000. There was no special effort made
~ its behalf. The suffrage agitation
rather sidetracked other affairs this fall.
and there had been no time for discus
sion on this matter. Another circum-
stance that muddled the voter was the
presence on the ballot of the Wharton
tract referendum, and the peculiar way
the law required the freeholder referen-
dunn to be printed on the ballot. In
stead Of simply saying. Shall there be
small board Of freeholders? it quoted the
title OF an act. that many voters did
not know what was intended. Fearing
70 vote for the Wharton bond issue. it is
claimed that many voters refused to
vote for either referendum.

Engraving Company, has been awarded

returned to bidders unopened and pro-
posals are advertised for again. The

Blindness In America.

Blindness is less common in Amer.
lea than in most other countries; It
has apparently decreased among the
youngest classes of the population in
the last half century; 1t is more preva-
lent among Indians. and considerably
more prevalent among negroes than
among whites. The total number Of
blind persons in the world is roughly
estimated at 100000. At the census
of 1910 there were 57.272 blind per.
sons in the United States.

Some of the most fashionable Lon

by the war. This is mainly caused by
the shrinkage In the number of mag
mary ailments. Those people who
used to swell the fashionable physi-
clans bank balance prodigiously with
their fancied maladies have now SIM
ply no time to imagine themselves
Ill, or rather the war has distracted
their attention. One never seems to
meet a hypochondriac or neurotic in
these days. The war has also been
the cause of the termination of many

TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 9. 1915

AFTER sharp campaign, that grew
IN interest near the closing days. the
Republicans elected State Senator by
. majority that has not been equaled
in this county, going back as far as 1891.
There were fears that the Republicans
were too confident and that they might
lose through neglect to get the vote out,
but they seemed to be awake. Some
body remarked that the Republicans
were not organized, but il that was the
case it is hard to realize what would
have happened ii there had been
organization. The result shows that the
voters Of both parties had confidence in
our candidates for the Senate and AS
sembly and were not willing to take q
chance Of 'dops" that might occur.
They wanted men that could be de-
pended upon to work for the peoples
interests. and not be wheedled into doing
something that was not satisfactory in
payment for promises never fulfilled.
Out Of SIS voting districts Harold B.
Wells was successful in all but seven,
and Emmor Roberts lost eight, Spring
field, the home Of his opponent beating
him by 20 votes and New Hanover cast
but one vote more than Tallman got 1t
was as near unanimous as possible and
the candidates are to be congratulated
on the splendid success they achieved.

publicans made great gains in this State
with majority Of q on joint ballot,

It may not be amiss to look at the in

Governor Fielder in some OF the issues

pressed himself as much in favor OF
