The number of licensed hotels was
reduced on Tuesday night, at the
meeting of the Board of Commissioners
by their refusal to renew the license of
John b. Kelly, who has conducted the
Union House in this city for number
of years. 1t had been rumored for
some time that the number of hotels
was to be reduced and the action of the
board was not altogether a surprise.
In February the license fee was raised
from $500 per annum to 1925, and in
view of this fact the revenue from this
source will not be affected by the clos
ing of this hotel. According to re-
cent ruling of the governing body all
applications for liquor license must
be accompanied by statement from
the city treasurer showing that
all debts due the city have been paid
before action will be taken on such APP
plications for license. At the next
meeting of the Commission six other
applications for a renewal of hotel
licenses will be presented to the board.
Among this number will be a new
man for an old place, Charles Lehman
who is making application for a license
for the old Bordentown House.

COLUMBUS
Sunday, April 14th, two seniors from
Princeton spent the day in Columbus,
assisting in the services at the Baptist
and Presbyterian Churches, and in the
evening speaking at union service in
the Methodist Church. The county
Y. M. G. A. secretary assisted the Rev.
Mr.. Way in the morning services at

pleasing results of this service is a
probability that Y. M. c. A. group

On boys Sunday the opening exer-
cises and other special features were
under the supervision of the boys, who

Guy c. Hendry. At the beginning of
the services Mr.. Hendry played a
cornet solo, "Holy City," He took for
the subject of his address ''Dead-live
Men" This service was particularly
well attended and the young men OF
Beverly who are also very much inter
ested in Y. M. c. A. affairs are to be
congratulated upon their ability to
arouse interest in behalf of their Sun.
day school and its program of study.

Random Remarks.

Among those who are now MAKING
the most earnest appeals to the gov.
eminent to give soldiers outright re-
lease or furlough are the farmers, but
inquiry appears to reveal the fact that
among the subscribers to Liberty loans
the farmers are very much in the min.
ority. Why is it thus?
Inc question of whether liquor shall
or shall not be sold will be an issue in
the next election. 1t will come mn in
the discussion on the ratifying of the
amendment to the United States Con
stltution on the subject. In the mean
time there will not be any hoIdine
back on the part of those who desire
local option elections to be held. The
decision in Lumberton township that
the town should remain dry has not
dlsmayed those who are opposed to
hotels, but has spurred them on to
increased activity. The moral side of
the question was of the least moment
in the minds of some OF the voters of
Lumberton. The Hainesport contin-
gent wanted the new schoolhouse in
their neighborhood, so when the cleo
ton was held last week one of the ar
guments put out was ''You would not
let us have the schoolhouse. We do
not have any hotel SO you may keep
the schoolhouse and the hotel, too"

1T is to SMILE" and 1--WE do no
care cent is the plant of our neigh
Dor, but singular fact is that it tool
whole column of cold type to tel
what might have been said in hal
dozen words. The trouble came from
what is the cause of all complaint from
that source-the pocketbook was touch.
ed. The Board of Freeholders decided
to reduce the space used in printing
the monthly report of the county col.
lector and that meant reduction OF
the bill for printing that report by a
possible $50 or $50 year. But that
was enough to hurt. So nothing would
do but to come out in long TRADE in
which the chief remarks were directed
against county clerk Knight. The
article published in the 'oldest news
paper and, incidentally, "the only
Republican paper" in the county, was
like many other things printed in that
sheet, full of inaccuracies which were
calculated to mislead the public. The
statement was made that county col
lector Pine and county auditor Worrell
disclaim all knowledge" of the reso-
luton. Mr.. Worrsll suggested this
very move before the Board acted on it
and while he did not see the resolution
before it was adopted he did know that
it was being considered by the finance
committee and that the latter took up
the matter with the solicitor. Mr..
Worrell will stand by this statement.
But there are other inaccuracies-to
use a mild term. In order to show
how much. the county is putting out
monthly for salaries, the figures given
place the salary of county solicitor
Peacock on basis of $1,000 per year,
while he only gets $1,000. The list
printed gratuitously includes the three
members of the Board OF Taxation at
800 each, when the fact is that the
county does not have anything to do
with paying these officials, their checks
come directly from the state treasury,
