PASSES FOR
STATE OFFICIALS

Trenton, Feb. 29-In an opinion to-
day the Supreme Court held that l..
Edward Hermann, secretary to Gov
ernor Fielder, is entitled to ride free
upon the railroads of New Jersey I'M
der the act of 1914. The matter came
before the court on an appeal by the
Pennsylvania Railroad to recover
Slabs for fares. Other appeals have
been taken by the company.
The opinion is based on a ruling of
the Supreme Court in the case of the
State Water Supply Commission,
where it was held that in order to dis
count the claim that State officials
might be regarded with suspicion if
they accepted transportation from
railroads, the Legislature made it OBJ
ligatory upon the companies to issue
the passes.
Justice Parker, who wrote the opin-
ion, says the Legislature has this
power, which may be regarded either
as regulating corporations or the ex-
ercise of it's police authority.

DEMONSTRATIONS
FOR THE FARMS

In a recent publication of the State
Experimental Station, the following
was printed under the caption of
Demonstration Signs"
In all our work we must constantly
keep in mind the necessity of bring
ing the lessons from our work be-
fore as many people as possible There
are several ways by which this is
being done in our state. Our daily
and weekly newspapers are, as a
rule, anxious to cooperate with us.
Many articles are published each week
in the various parts of New Jersey,
calling the attention of farmers to
certain results secured or to certain
methods which are known to give
satisfaction. Demonstration meetings
are held where the most approved
methods are actually demonstrated.
Addresses are given frequently at ali
kinds of meetings where various ag-
ricultural subjects are discussed. Cir
cular letters and personal letters are
sent out to many people, all of which
cause people to consider certain phas-
es of their problems.
1t becomes a very easy matter when
all these factors are considered to
think that every one who cares may
secure all necessary information at
once little eYnarinnce in odvartic
ing farmers Institutes makes one
realize that too much care can hardly
be given to driving these lessons
home. Newspaper articles are seldom
read, only small percentage of the
people in a community hear an ad-
dress or attend a demonstration meet
ing. Circulars and bulletins are Of
ten thrown aside without even being
opened. 1t was because of the know
ledge of this condition that our DEM
onstrators decided to have large signs
placed up on certain demonstration
fields and farms. This will remind
all that it was voted to have these
signs uniform-4 it. long and it.

S|LO FOR
COAL STORAGE
Jerrell & Son Planning a
Big improvement.
TO Be COMPLETE
Will Erect a Large Plant Upon
Water Street Property For
Handling Coal.

Terrell & Son, coal dealers, are
planning an entirely new coal hand
ing scheme which will be erected up
on the firms property on Water st.
The plan is an entirely new one
for this section and it is the last
word in the storage and loading of
coal for local delivery.
The plan that Terrell Il Son have
decided upon is triple silo system.
Three large silo structures are to be
erected upon concrete foundations,
each silo being designed to hold many
tons of coal. Over and upon these
three silos is erected building which
will house a motor and equipment for
the operation of an automatic eleva-
tor which will lift the coal from the
pit under the railroad tracks where
it is dumped by the railroad company
The coal thus elevated is distributed
in either of the three siles where it
is provided safe and dry storage.
L uS ollOS are UullL upon cement
foundations sufficiently high for
team to drive under. A chute will
carry the coal from the silos to the
wagons automatically, the screening
being done as the coal is leaving the
silo structure. Thus coal is dumped
from the freight car, raised to the
silos and loaded into the wagons
without any manual labor being nee
essary. This is not only a saving,
but much time is saved in the hand
ling of the coal.
The equipment while somewhat ex-
pensive for installation, is a great
labor and money saver and keeps the
coal in fine shape.
AS soon as the plans are finally
worked out permit will be taken
out from the Public Works Depart
ment, and work upon construction
will begin at once.

DECISION
WITHHELD
Liability Case Was But
Short.
LITTLETESTIMONY
Defense Stands Upon the Law
and Offers Nothing in
Testimony.

Charles E. Bowen, the petitioner in
the case tried yesterday before Judge
Leroy w. Loder, under the Employ
ers' Liability Act, in which Clyde
Potts was the respondent. j. Hamp-
ton Fithian called as the first witness
charles E. Bowen, the father of Wal
ter c. Bowen, who lost his life from
injuries received in a sanitary sewer
while employed therein by direction
of his employer, Mr.. Potts, in Ocean
Grove.
Mr.. Bowen testified as to the fun
eral expenses, medical attendance and
hospital charges on account of his son.
Mr. Bowen showed that the expenses
amounted to $231.01. He showed that
his son had contributed various sums
to him in paying off a mortgage on
his farm, and in supporting Paul, an
other son in Rutgers College.
The only other witness called was
the son Paul, who corroborated Mr..
Bowen as to Walters assisting him
while in the college.
The respondent made no defense,
only contending for the payment of
only the $100 allowed by the act, $50
of which had been paid to the hospi-
tai.
Mr.. Fithian contended that there
were but two questions to be deter
mined; one was as to the fathers
dependency and the other was wheth-
er the respondent was liable for ex-
penses of medical attendance outside
of the allowance of funeral expenses
of $1O0. He claimed that the father
was dependant, under the law, and
that the total claim of $231.O1 was the
sum for which the respondent was
liable after deducting the $50 which
was paid to the hospital.
Both sides rested the case and
Judge Loder said he would file his
decision in writing.

New Brunswick. N. j., Feb. 90
Nearly all of Cranbury's population
gathered at union meeting in the
First Presbyterian Church = protest
against the renewal of the liquor Ii
cense of the United States Hotel, an
old-time' inn in which liquor has been
sold for almost a century. The prin-
cipal speaker at the meeting was Will
liam X. Lombard, a former licensee
of the hotel, who "hit the trail' at
the Billy Sunday meetings in Phila-
delphia
Since his conversion, Mr.. Lombard
has become a foe of the liquor traffic,
and his speech included data learned
through his experience. He declared
there was no place for the saloon in
society and that the liquor traffic
should be crushed out.
A remonstrance petition was passed
among the congregation and many
signed it. 1t will be presented to
Judge Peter F. DAILY to be acted upon
when the renewal of the license comes
up in April.

BILLY STIRRED
CONFESSION

Baltimore, Feb % The arrival
of Billy Sunday in Baltimore gave
such shock to the conscience OF
William F. Husselbaugh, twenty-nine,
who had married two women, that he
tried to commit suicide. Failing, he
confessed to the police.
Husselbaugh, in his cell, declared
that the presence of Billy Sunday had
caused him to realize his sin.
81 am responsible for the sorrow
brought to two good women" he said,
"and if l could l would go to that
tabernacle and admit my guilt. When
saw Mr.. Sundays picture and read
some of his forceful words, 1 could
deceive my first wife no longer"
Both wives visited the police sta
ton and wept while they talked to
Husselbaugh. Both are about thirty
years old.

Gas men
TALK SERVICE

Last night twenty of the active men
employed in the distribution and
emergency service of the Bridgeton
Gaslight Company held a meeting at
the plant with Superintendent Jacob
B. Jones and spent profitable even
ing going over the entire matter of SER
vice. 1t was one of the frequent meet
ings held by the experts and proved to
be one of the most instructive and
fruitful of any that has been held.
The policy of the Bridgeton GasLight
Company is service and it was urged
upon every employee that this should
be understood by the public. 1t is es-
pecialIy desired that every complaint
with the service, no omatter how trivial,
shall be at once reported to the COM
pany, and this will bring instantly
man whose business it is to remedy the
trouble and no cost is assumed by the
patron of the service. The emergency
department is equipped to meet i'm
mediate demands and it is the purpose
of the company to have it's entire ser
vice at the highest efficiency always.
One matter was discussed at length.
There has been provided an automatic
lighting device for gas ranges thus do
ing away with the necessity of matches.
This device seems entirely practical,
provides against the probability of &C

j. S. WILL
NEED CAPITAL

James ]. Hill was asked last Satur-
day, just before he left for St. Paul,
what he thought of the outlook for
business in this country after the
close of the European war. He re-
piled:
''It seems to me that what the Unit
ed States will need most will be bust
ness courage, enterprise and ample
capital. There will probably be an
abundance of capital, provided that
We have industrial peace and rea-
sonable assurance that there will be
available foreign markets for our
surplus products.
"When peace finally comes, the
belligerents will have piled up an
enormous debt They will require
many necessities from us, but they
will not be able to pay in gold. How
can they pay? Immediately after the
war Europe will start to reconstruct
itself.
''Their industrial people have only
their labor to sell and the employer
must pay price for it that will leave
him a profit in the market where he
sells his goods. The lower the wage
the smaller the buying power of the
European people.
MANY people here want a high
protective tariff to protect us against
the flood of European goods after the
war is over, but if her products are
kept out of our markets, how can
Europe to buy and pay for our goods!
This is problem that requires very
careful consideration if we are to re-
tain the strong position as the store
house for the world, which we now
occupy.
without market for surplus pro-
ducts, what is the American manu-
facturer and farmer going to do?"
