Board of Health Suit

George Leskey was summoned before
]. K. Duffy, Esq, OIL Tuesday morning
on the suit OF Penns Grove Board Of
Health for collecting garbage and cavern
gering without a license. Because the
charge and indictment was o drawn ae.
cording to the ordinance Squire Duffy
gave a non-suit H. b. Ware represented
the Board OF Health and F. q. Hill
lard Mr.. Lesky.
After several trials and difficulties by
others the Board Of Health procured Oil
ger Cuff last winter to do the scavenger-
iAg. He came thirteen miles And cleaned
up fiie town, work others would not do.
One Of the reasons others would not and
could not do it at q profit was that citizens
avoided p~atronizing a man who made a
specially when they could get their garb
age collected at less cost when 1t WAS pro.
itable for tire collector and did nothing
when not profitable. Mr.. Cuff comes
i've miles.
Mr.. Lesky appeared before the Board
of Health a few weeks Z and asked for
a license to collect garbage, as lie now
has hogs to feed, but did not purpose do
ing it after the hogs were killed. lie WAS
refused a license. As he continued to
collect garbage the snit was brought.
A stage sitting at the trial was half q
dozen citizens who claimed that as they
could get Mr.. Lesky to do their work At
lass cost for a limited time they objected
to p~atronizing Mr.. Cuff.
The old fashion way of doing much
business has been by mutual consent on
streets and behind doors when a personal
interest can be served.
The rules of the Board of Health are
that all citizens who have grievances or
can give constructive advice to serve the
general public are welcomed to present
such in writing to the Board of Health
who are endeavoring to serve the general
public interest. The Board will meet
this Friday night in the Council room
and iortnightly thereafter.

CIVIL OVER MILITARISM
Dupont Guard Banished From
the State

Last Friday Judge E. G. Waddington
in Salem County Court, told Joseph Lamb
a DUPONT guaru, that he was disposed to
send him to prison, but would suspend
the sentence if he paid the fine and left
the county. The charge WAS that Lamb
and others had INSTRUCTED Sheriff Abra-
ham Lincoln Fox from serving a paper in
dupont works at Carney Point on No
vember l1th.
When the Sheriff attempted to enter
with a pass signed by Fred A.. Gentieu.
superintendent, Lamb and other guards
refused to honor it. The Sheriff then
howed his badge aud was again refused
admission. Some of the guards were
abusive and Lamb dared tile Sheriff To
arrest him.
When the Sheriff placed him under
arrest he was jostled about so that lie had
to let 90 his hold on Lamb, and when his
son, Richard Fox, went to his assistance
the son WAS seized and placed in Il guard
house. The Sheriff with drawn revolver
got Richard out OF the Building.
Later when Sheriff Fox entered the
works after Lamb, a further attempt was
made 10y the guards to hold him up, but
when lie announced that he would take
iiie uihii Udck W Cdleln uedu OF alive,
the way was cleared.
Lamb was placed under $500 bail for
court and Judge Waddingt u jordered tile
sentence of deportation alter scatliingly
reprimanding him.
The DUPONT Company Immediately dis
charged LAMB and other guards who ill.,
terlered with the Sheriff.
The dupont works are run under strict
military rule and discipline and even MIR.
Gentieu is held up to show Il pass. Major
Clark, who was in the U. $. army for 80
years is in charge Of about 800 guards who
have been sworn in as deputy constables
ior Upper Penns Neck township.
Many Of the guards were former sol
diers. Joseph Lamb was formerly on the
Pennsyl Vania coustabnlary and had been
on Carney Point for two years. He was
off duty at the time and was the last man
expected To interfere with civil authority.
While more military drill and discipline
would be beneficial to American boys and
men,, yet this case shows how men vested
with such authority get the idea in their
heads that the civil authority has no
rights where they have private military
authority. The GERMAN minds have
been drilled for a generation on that line
and the Kaiser has started out with his
military machine to Conquer aud impose
that idea on the whole world. Ii Ger
many wins then America may have to
become All armed camp. F
The American democratic idea for
which our forefatliers fought is to keep
the civil authority of Abraham Lincoln
Fox superior to military authority.

COUNTY LOSES MOTOR FUND
Egan Bond Issue Will Make Sa-
lem County Build Own Roads

The money which the State receives
from the Licenses of automobiles and fines
is known as the Motor Vehicle Fund and
is used for the repairs and improvement
of roads. During 1916 Salem county re-
ceived x30, 900 from this fund. Salem
county Board of FreehOlders expected to
get much from this fund with which %
build the new road from Penns Grove to
Malaga. 1t WAS the intention to build
sections thru Upper Penns Neck and
Pilesgrove during 1917.
E. A. Stevens, State Commissioner of
Roads, has sent a telegram to County En-
gineer II. b. Keasbey warning the Board
OF Freehoiders that it ia impossible Mt
this time to say whether any money will
he available from the Motor Vehicle
Fund unless the Egan act, carried by
popular vote at the last election is de-
clared unconstitutional
Many men voted for this proposition to
bond the State for 81. OO0, 900 to be paid
out Of the Motor fund because they were
led to believe somebody could get some
thing for nothing.
A clique OF North Jersey bankers who
wanted the interest on the bonds aud the
people along the routes where the none
is to be spent, surely hood winked other
sectlons OF the state, They will get much
for nothing, but Salem county taxpayers
will have to build their own roads.
While those who want the bonds and
the money spent in North Jersey princi-
pally spent money in advertising to pro-
mote the bond Issue, there was no propa-
ganda to inform the people opposed. In
Salem county 1924 voted for the bonding
and l345 against. Every vote should
have been against, because not only does
Salem county get nothing from the bond
issue, but will be deprived Of the amount
formerly received.

Road Bids Opened

The road committee of Salem County
Board OF Chosen Freehol3ers opened
bids in the court house in Salem County
on Tuesday for the construction of the
road between Pole Tavern and the Pies
grove township line just ont of Woods
town. Fox and Powell. of Ocean Citv,
we're the lowest bidder at SIS, 696. "a.
This is another link in the road from
Penns Grove to Malaga.
The Freeholders will soon invite bids
for the construction of the road from the
stone road at Biddle creek in Upper
Penns Neck township to Woodstown.
The estimated cost is about 1920, 900.
That portion from Malaga to Elmer
has been mostly built with convict labor,
and that from Elmer to Pole Tavern was
built with State aid. Without State aid
the County tax rate will have to go
higher or the road will not be built in
the neal future.

An AMERICAN CHRISTMAS
Made In America A Lesson
To Teach Buyers.

Mre. James NJ. Thompson, daughter Of
Speaker Champ Clark aud National
Chairman of the Women's National Made
IN U. s. A. League, has issued 4 call to
tile members of the organization TO
observe the rule "America first" in their
Christmas purchases.
"a Made in America Christmas"
would be u splendid lesson for the youth
of the country" SIZE says. at would
teach them that the fist idea Of indus
trial preparedness is to patron'z4 aud
develop home industries. In this regard
women should show q patriotic prefer
ence Tor American made goods whenever
possible and give all possible support to
the American industries. The universal
preference OF American women for i'm.
ported articles has been u stumbling
block TO American industry. Let us free
ourselves from the tyranny of the word
imported and write a Christmas meg
sage this year that will be a declaration
Of industrial independence for this
Nation"
The message OF the daughter of Champ
Clark, Democratic Speaker OF the House
OF Representative YES, should he taken seIi-
ously by all those who b lieve in, work
WV sNpC q hhkn RttbCCtltO al
When King George's ship brought tea 10
u colonial forefathers aud asked them
To not only pay for the tea bnt an extra
tax to maintain King George, our grand
mothers went without the lea.
At that time each State Was \ separate
nation and some had q tariff against in-
ter-state coinmeice. Believers in a pro-
tective tariff should apply their doctrine
to their own State aud town. Buying
elsewhere never built up your own town.
There are great merchants like John
Wanamaker Who make speeches tor a
high protective tariff and make a special
ty of importing goods and make special
displays to attract the families OF the rich
captains of industry who spend their
money for the enactment of a high tariff,
aud then buy foreign goods outside Of,
their own State and town.
1t will he noticed that merchants fad
it profitable to advertise for Penns Grove
trade. Consistent protectionists ~patronize
industries at home. This is essential TO
keep Penns Grove OH IL sonnd business
basis. II the merchants do not get
enough profit on goods sold they cannot
pay tire rents and taxes. A cooperative
spirit among all citizens will add to the
benefits of all

Alumni Defeated

On Thursday the High School football
team defeated the Alumni by the score OF
60. The High School held the Alumni
better than expected, but as the Alumni
did not do good team work, not having
had practice, they depended mainly OH
strength and weight.
The ball swayed back and forth in mid
field until Mitchell got off on al end
run and a trick play by Turner and a for
ward to him brought the ball on the
three yard line. Angler had the goods
to take it over.
The remainder of the game was a test
Of strength and skill, but neither could
Guido the other. More than once the
Alumni got within striking distance but
conld not take the ball over. The High
School had their forwards working finely
as this WIS their main source OF gain and
at times these gains made it dangerous
for the Alumni.

Chicago, Aug. a. Wheat prices
ieaped up 1-s and IA bushel

widening of crop damage in Canada,
the Dakotas and Minnesota. 1t was
said by trade authorities that black
rust havoc In Manitoba amounted to
a calamity. that the injury from rust
and heat in the fields south OF the in.
ternational border had gone beyond
any precedent.
According to estimates current to
day, the prospective total yield Of
wheat this season in North Dakota
and in Minnesota will not be half as
large as last year and will be $4,000
900 bushels short OF the amount sug'
gested by the United States govern

fields were declared to be so badly
smitten as not to be able to repay
the expense OF harvest.
