Random Remarks

There has been some criticism of the
Democratic majority of the Board of
Freeholders for appointing a member
of that faith to the Office of county
auditor. Nothing more natural could
have been expected. When the Re-
publicans are in power they generally
take care of their own. That is the
fortune of politics. Had the Republi-
cans held the balance of power in this
appointment does anyone, for
moment, think they would have select
ed Democrat for the place? Yet, at
the organization, in 1916, with % DEM
ocrats and Is Republicans present, out
of eight positions to be awarded by the
board, seven of them were given to
Republicans. The new official, S. Earl
Assay will probably give good account
of himself; he certainly will have to
work for some time Strengthening out
the work left undone by his predeces-
sor.
Following the charge given to the
grand jury which met in April, that
body, in session on Tuesday, took up
the subject of investigating the escape
of murderer from the Jail. Justice
Kalisch advised very strongly in favor
of finding an indictment when the re-
sponsibility for this escape was estab-
lished, but the jury could not find any
body to indict but the "antiquated
Jail, !" so that institution was hauled
over the Goals for being Anticipated and
then there were suggestions with refer
ence to future watching of prisoners.
Having done this the jury proceeded
to do something the court had not call
ed attention to. namely, the manner
the other county Offices are conducted.
The surrogate's Office was found to be
going along without any chance for
criticism, and that is certainly the
case. But the office of the county
clerk was severely scolded. OF course
this was because the way things are
done there must have been very ap-
parent. There cannot be any sugges-
ton that the case against the county
clerks Office was worked up in advance
for every member of the jury took a
solemn oath not to present any one
through malice, and the gentlemen
who composed the jury are of our best
citizens. Why there was not any re
port on the auditors Office is not told,
but it is said there was food for thought
there, as the new auditor has been kept
busy since he took charge of the office
putting away papers that should have
been filed last January, and by the
time the next grand jury is summon
ed this work will all have been COM
pleted. However, nothing of any ac-
count could have been accomplished
by making report on this case or Gen.
surfing the former official. He has
drawn his pay which was increased loo
per cent. that he might give his entire
attention to the business, and the
Board of Freeholders has appointed
another man who will do those things
the other man left undone.

After covering itself with glory by
shutting out the strong Florence team
on its own grounds, Mount Holly went
on the home diamond Saturday and
put up as ragged game of ball as will
be seen this season. 1t lost the game
in the third inning by miserable play
ing and won it in the tenth by work
that made up for the misplays in the
first part Of the game. Forbes was not
In his usual form, from some cause
and he was touched up for ten hits.
1t must be remembered, however,
that Delanco, the visiting team, has
some heavy hitters, and they got in
good work. In the first inning Lawrie
Gillian was hit by pitched ball and
scored later. In the second inning
Shemelia got hit and a run and
things looked very promising, but in
the third inning Delanco got its work
in for four runs. Mount Holly went to
pieces and made four errors all OF

felt very jubilant. In the fifth and
sixth Mount Holly tied the score, but
Delanco came back in the eighth and
did the same trick and in the ninth
went one better and had the game by
the score OF to 4. But Mount Holly
rallied in its half of the ninth and
made two runs and this made another
inning necessary. Delanco was
BANKED. Shemslia was given a bast
ON balls and stole second. Frank
Foulks struck out and Peacock was
out on fly. 1t looked as if the game
would be prolonged, when Forbes
made beautiful hit on which She
melia scored and Mount Holly was the
victor. 1t wasa game that kept the
crowd on edge at all tunes and nobody
could tell what was going TO happen
next. The score follows:
