POLITICAL PEACE RESTORED
AFTER YEAR OF STRIFE.
Warning Factions at Somers Point
Buried Hatchets New Years Day

After a year of bitter fractional
strife, leading to a situation so SER
ious that bloodshed was at times "a
rowly averted and the courts were
finally compelled to intervene, polit-
ical peace has been restored at Som
ers Point through the election and
recognition by all factions of Robert
NJ. Crissy as Mayor. Because of a
tie vote between candidates of the
"Home Rule" and the "City" parties
in 1914, the Bay City had been with
out a chief executive during the past
year, and municipal affairs had reach
ed a deplorable state as a consequence.
All differences were buried New
Years Day, however, when the time
arrived for reorganization of City
Council, and leaders in opposing fac
tions declared that henceforth they
would work together for the best wei
fare of the city. James Cousart, VINO
was recognized as both Mayor and
president of City Council by the Home
Rule faction last year, was chosen
president of Council for 1916. Albert
C. Abbott, of Mays Landing, was cho-
sen City Solicitor, and E. D. Right
mire, former city engineer of the re-
sort, was again selected for that post.
The "Home Rule" or Higbee faction
is in the ~ascendancy in the City Coun-
ell, and a square deal" administra-
ton has been promised.

CHILD BADLY BURNED.

Francis Mccain, the little ten
year-old son of Mr.. and Mrs. Peter
Mccain, corner Franklin avenue and
Reading Railroad, was badly burned
about the face, hands and chest one
day last week. The little fellow had
tossed a match upon the hot stove
and a draft of wind blew the burning
brand upon his blouse, igniting it.
He began at once fighting the blaze
and calling for help, but before his
mother could get down stairs he was
badly burned. Mrs. Kinsell, a neigh
Dor, was called in and did valuable
frst-aid service until DR.. Wallis ar
rived. While very painful, the Doc
tor thinks the burns may not prove
serious and the little fellow is get

BOUNTY LEGISLATION

When legislatures meet. a subject that
comes up frequently Is to pass Legislation
Offering bounties for killing Of certain
with game conditions group bounty laws
with the most pernlcious type OF legisla-
ton.
In the case OF New Jersey. where
bounty legislation was discussed last
year. a Massachusetts commissioner Of
game testified that In the case OF the
animals which are susceptible OF arti-
ficial propagation tho bounty has been
IN added stimulus to propagation. Prac-
teal experience has indicated that the
bounty system was n prolific source Of
petty grating which has become "A very
considerable item In the annual tax upon
the people. He recalls one instance
where $500 was paid by one town upon
bounties obtained fraudulently. II Ia an
exceedingly difficult law to administer.
he says. for the reason that those species
upon which bounties are paid will be I'M
ported from regions where the bounty
laws are not in force. not to mention the
innunerabie cases where two or more
hountiss are paid upon the same bird or
animal.
lie remembers an instance where
nearly Il hushei OF crows heads were
used In collecting bounties repeatedly In
one Of the towns Of Massachusetts.
In nearly every state OF the Union and
In the experience of nearly every person
who has carefully studied the problem,
the bounty law is grouped with the most
pcrn;cious type OF legislation.
