DARETOWN. n. j.. Sept with
the State overrun with tramps at this
season of the year, Salem county is
protected at its border from the inva-
sion OF the idle army by the secret
code of the Knights OF the Road who
have put their mark of a spade and
pick on roads entering the county to
warn away other members OF the fra
ternity who might find themselves
luckless enough to land in the county
prison road camp.
Taking a cue from the State prison
road camps which have been estab-
lished for some years past, Salem
county has set the pace for other
counties OF New Jersey in removing
its county prison system from the
class OF a sinecure in summer and
b "soft snap" in winter for petty often
ders and vagrants.
Established a little more than a
year ago, the county prison road camp
is proving its greatest efficiency in
keeping away from she county the un-
desirable class such az fill most of
the other county iails. The old GUS
tom was to send tramps and other
petty offenders. comprising chiefly
drunk and disorderly eases. 10 the
county Jail to serve out their sen
tences in idleness. This custom has
for years been severely criticised as
breeding a colony Of veritable jail
boarders and leaving the prisoners
worse on morally and physically after
they have finished their short terms
/ than they were before.
Now the offender who faces Judges
f. e. Waddington. in the Salem coun-
! ty court. has his dream Of thirty or
sixty or ninety days Of card playing
and petty gambling and other diver
sions common to county jails shatter-
ed when he has a stiff fine placed upon
him in addition TO the regular jail
sentence. and is told that he can pro-
ceed at once TO work out his fine in
the county road camp at the rate of
so cents a day. He is also told that
he will have TO remain in Jail until
the fine is paid.
The county road camp idea had its
birth in the Pennsgrove powder boom
which filled the old prison
at Salem to overhowing with
the riffraff Of fortune seekers who
were sent up for disorderliness
drunkenness and other offenses
Judge Waddington and the board o
freeholders found that they couldn'
pack prisoners any tighter in the
ancient prison. and they hit upon
the idea Of establishing a portable
prison camp and filling II with th'
overflow prisoners.
This camp was built early in tn
summer Of 1915. II consists OF a large
bunk house, cellroom and Office com
bined. and a smaller structure use,
for a kitchen and messroom. Th
bunkhouse is solidly built. Plank
are laid both ways in the floor an
ceiling. and walls are lined with stOu
woven steel wire, while iron bars rui
the full height from floor to ceiling a
the sides and ends. where there ar
small windows. thus forming substan
tial gratings.
Rows Of hunks with a window a
the head Of each bunk for ventilatior
line each side and afford accommoda
/ tions for twenty men. 10 require
eight teams Of horses to pull this pori
able prison when the road camp

Cocoanut Oil Fine
For Washing Hair

II you want to keep your hair In
good condition, be careful what you
wash IL with
Most soaps and prepared shampooa
contain too much alkali. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle. and
is very harmful. Just plain rnulsi-
ned cocoanut oil (which is pure and
entirely greaseiess). is much better
than the most expensive soap or any
thing else You can use for shampoo
ing, as this can't possibly injure the
hair.
Simply moisten yonr hair with wa
ter and rub IL in. One or two tea
spoonfuls will make an abundance Of

hair and scalp thoroughly. The lather
rinses out easily, and removes every

Brother Lorenz located a tungsten

out of 360 brewery workers employed
in Denver and Golden before January !,
less than 20 are now working in the pro.
duction Of near-beer, and most Of these
are only putting in half time During
the past two weeks there have been a
number of additional departures. Broth
ers Liungwall, Floyd Dudley, Ed Peasc,
Joe Hofmeister and Pete Hokansen have
gone to Detroit. Brother Louis Thuet
has secured a position with the Sheri-
dan, Wyo., brewery, where he will re-
ceive almost twice as much wages MS the
Coors company offered him before going
on strike. Besides fair wages. he will
get some real beer to drink, which is
worth something. Many of our brothers
are still out of work, and unable to find
anything to do.

Unions Essential to Welfare.
"A prominent feature Of this report,
and one that has been given much at
tention by students everywhere of social
problems, is that all the commissioners,
capital the public and labor represent
atives, We're united in the conclusion that
labor unions are essential to protect the
welfare of the workers under our present
industrial and economic system. This is
distinct advancement of the cause of
organized labor, and its effect has re-
Gently been demonstrated in Denver and
other industrial centers of the country.
All joined, after hearing the testimony,
in the opinion that labor unions and col
lective bargaining are imperative.
Among other important subjects upon
which all the commissioners practically
agreed was that the eight hour day ia
just; that indictments made by labor
against combinations of capital to de-
fraud labor of its Just share OF what Ia
Dor produces is true; that state legisla-
tors and members of Congress have been
subsidised by capital and bribed to de-

arbitration of industrial disputes is un-

Breweries Making Near Beer in Den

Agreements With Unions

An agreement between the brewery
proprietors and the United Brewery
Workers OF Denver Pueblo and Trinidad,
has been reached whereby the contracts
in force up to May /, 1916, are extended
for a period of one year. Whlle the
brewery workers feel that they We're en-
titled to a raise in wages on account of
the increasing cost of living and amount
OF time lost during each year, they real
iZe that as the near-beer proposition Is
a new venture for Colorado, and that it
will probably be some time before this
business can be firmly established and
any great number of men employed, it
was deemed inadvisable to make any new
demands at this time.
An agreement with the soft drink bot
tling establishments also was signed for
one year, with the exception of a few
small concerns which have never been
organized. An effort to organize these
places is now being taken up by the
Brewery Workers, and if they should re-
fuse to unionize their plants, organized
labor will be notified and an energetic
campaign made to bring them into line
with the union firms. The Brewery
Workers still have plenty of good fights
in them, and will go to the bat at any
time.
Every brewery and nearbear manu-
featuring plant in Colorado is now union
With the single exception of the Coors
brewery at Golden.
The fight against the Coors unfair
product will be kept up until a satisfac-
tory settlement is reached said Secre-
tarv William Koch of the Brewery Work
ers Union There is. no danger of any
of the strikers returning to work until
then, and there is no doubt but that or
ganized labor of this state will do its
duty and assist the brewery workers in
every way. From the splendid support
already given the brewery workers by
organized labor thruout the state, it is
quite evident that the old saying of an
injury to one is the concern of ALL is well

Eating Up the Profits.


Eating Up the Profits.
Free transportation of private cars is
an abuse for which there is little justi-
fication.
Tables prepared by the commission
show that the revenue from private cars
handled free during the year 1913 on
only eighty eight roads, would, at tariff
rates, have been $644 ,250.79. 1t is nat
ural that subordinates should be waste
full when their superiors are extrava-
CANT and that efforts to secure economies
should often prove futile when at the
expense of the stockholders or public,
the luxury of private car is freely
granted for personal and private use,
even to subordinate Officials and mem
bers of their families. Records OF one
road show that the wives of first, Sec
ond and third vice presidents, the wife
OF superintendent, the wife of super
intendent of telegraph, the mother of
chairman, the secretary OF the vice pres
ident of telegraph company, and the
chief clerk to a president were given the
free use OF private cars; indeed, not a
private car merely, but two special trains
were furnished free to the widow of
former director, tariff rate for which
service would have been S3,466. The
that company enjoyed in a single year,
free transportation in private cars for
nine trips on which tariff rates would
have aggregated S3,577.
Wasting at the Bunghole.
Some officials feel they must have
private cars even tho the road lack nee
essary motive power and other equip
ment. Within the last few days the
Clover Leaf railroad, which is in the
hands of receiver, has been granted
permission to purchase a private car for
Walter /. Ross, receiver for the Clover
Leaf railroad, at cost Of S3l 300.
