INEFFIcIENcY IN GOVERNMENT
(By J. =. Jones)
Introduction
TO BE CONTINUED

Our republican form Of government
is a success-a success in spite Of
itself. Government, like all else, is
the heir to many evils, and among the
inherdtances Of the republic were the
twin evils, graft and ineficiency. When
graft became conspicuous, 1t invited
attack, and 1t is evidence of improve
ment that it has almost disappeared
during late years. But in~eficiency
which has inflicted q h~undredfold more
loss upon the country than its more
conspicuous sister, continues to four
ish scandalously.
The patriotic people who cherish
the American brand of liberty dislike
the thought that there is anything
wrong with their great government,
and true to natural instincts. have
found blissfM comfort in nursing Illus
Ions which cannot be too rapidly dis
PEELED. Why blame them. since Ma
ture hsrself plays faneiful tricks

1904, when Eugene V. Debs was their
candidate for president, declared:
Socialism means that all those things
upon which the people in common de-
be owned and administered 1t means
that the tools of employment belong to
the creators and users; that all pro-
duction shall be for the direct use of
the producers; that the making of
goods at a profit shall come to an end;
that we shall all be workers together,
and that opportunities shall be open
and equal to all men" However much
merit there may be in the minds of
ONE people in the above doctrine, yet
how much more satisfactory is the
logic of the Declaration of Independ-
ence: Governments are instituted
among men, deriving their just powers
from the consent Of the governed"
The power of legitimate control has
rested within the government from the
first, and has ever been with the con
sent of the governed" in order that
the administrative, legislative and judi
cial machinery of the country might
perform its natural powers to do good
to the greatest number, so as to give
each of the citizens Of the country the
benefits of government without at
tempting to grasp the reins of private
commerce, or to seize the anagemen
Of private industries. This doctrine
was good enough in the beginning, and
it will stand until the end.
The people of thte United States
allow themselves to be greatly troub-
led over freight rates and the develop
ment of telegraph and telephone poll
cies. They rarely stop to consider that
they have the most efficient methods
and means of communication on the
face Of the globe, and that there is
nothing in government management
comparing with thte present methods
furnished the public by private COM
panies. If, as contended, rates are not
always equitable, it may be said in
reply that the small loss of tolls Is
more than compensated by the splen-
did efficiency provided for the benefit
of the people of the country. Govern
ment management always loses by
comparison.

Penrod began to feel that a lifetime
spent with this fascinating family
were all too short. The brothers, glow
ing with amiability, were as enraptur.
cd al he, For the first time in their
lives they moved In the rich glamour
Of sensationalism. Herman was prod
igal Of gesture with his right hand,
and Verman, chuckling with delight,
talked fiuently, though somewhat con
sciously. They cheerfully agreed to
keep the raccoon-already beginning to
be mentioned as "our coon" by Pen
fod-in Mr.. Schofeld's empty stable,

TRENTON, April 15.-By a vote OF

stood by the teachers of the state
and defeated the committee substitute
for Senate bill No. As, introduced by
Senator Mathis, of Ocean, which
would have affected their tenure OF

also to require, il requested by the
Board of Education, a notice from
the teacher of intention to remain in
the same school district for the fol-

under the present law.
During the course of the debate on
the bill, Assemblyman Harry Iobst,
the minister from Hunterdon, de-
clared that he loved the school teach
ers, and Mr.. Barbour facetiously re-
marked that he was surprised the
reverend gentleman should divide his
love between his wife and the school
marms. The minister was for the
bill, but it was vigorously opposed by
James Agnew, of Hudson, and Arthur
Agnew, of Bergen, the latter declar-
ing 1t a dangerous measure.
Assemblyman Crosby, chairman Of
the education committee, while not
favoring or opposing the bill, ex-
planned it's contents and said that
State Commissioner of Education
Kendall was neutral on it.

THE fact is" said Mr.. Fort, that

There are today several presidents,

in the Sussex county high and gram

In the last contest the words Sc.
lected were the same for all the school
children. The county superintendent
selected one hundred and twenty five
words. In previous contests there
| had been two lists of wordss one for
the high school pupils and the other
| for the grammar and rural schools.
In most of their contests the rural
children came out on top and there
were discussions as to whether their
superiority was not due to the fact
| that they were given list of words
a. the one prepared for the high
school students. SO MI Decker de-
cided to give all the schools the same
list in March, and the result has beer
| the same. The rural schools are on
the top. The highest percentage il
the rural schools Is in Byram an6
Montague townships, where the pupils
lare credited with an average of 94 3-1i
perA cent. The highest high schoo
mark Is in Hardyston, where the aver
age is SO $40 per cent, and the gram
lmar school leaders are the Stock
Iholm pupils with an average OF SS 81

There were nine perfect spoilers IL
