PENNSGROVE MAYOR
Still UNDER CLOUD
Mistrial on Graft Charge
Against Him Leaves
Case in Doubt
OFFICIAL HOPED
FOR ACQUITTAL

PENNSGROVE. N. J.. Jan. 3.-Citizens
are disappointed that the jury in the
Salem County Courts in the case
against Mayor j. Albert Fisher, accused
OF graft in the suppression OF crime,
did not reach a verdict, for they feel
that holding the highest office in the
borough the charge should not still
hang over him.
The mistrisl means that the case
must again be heard, probably at a
later date in the term, for II Is doubt
ful II 1t can be reached at this session,
as there are still seven more charges
Of alleged graft TO be moved by
Prosecutor Summerill against the
Mayor and the other officials
The Mayor was also disappointed az
The outcome, for he had expected ac-
quittal.
Word came from the jury room that
the jurors could not agree and that
there was no chance for a verdict, but
when this word was communicated TO
Judge Waddington he announced that
be would be In Salem later in the day
and If by that time no verdict could be
rendered he would dismiss the jurors.
IL was 5i5 last evening when the Judge
summoned the jurors, who declared
there was no chance OF agreement. He
then ordered a mistrial recorded.

gent handling of the railroad prob
lens.
ut seems to me that the interstate
body should be shorn of its dual
duties. 1t ought not to be prosecutor
and, at the same time, pass on the
guilt of the accused and impose a
penalty.
There ought to be a body of from
three to five men, appointed by the
president, holding rank similar to
that of the justices of the supreme
court, having an adequate salary, and
with the power to veto anything pro-
posed by the commissioners or the
railroads. There should be an oppor-
tunity for appeal to this body by the
railroads or the shippers.
Should Be Above Politics.
This supreme body should be
above politics and should be the final
body to protect the American people
from any possible damage, and it
should also protect the railroads from
i'll considered or partisan legislation.
81 am sick and tired of perpetual
lawsuits. We have been at law stead
lily for thirty years. This has not re-
suited in anything but bad feeling.
There is no reason for it and it ought
not to go on.
'I suppose you all know the trouble
We have with service everywhere The
trouble Is tnaI Inere is practically no
service; it is inefficient and not one
half what it used to be. I think the
real trouble is that we have no master.
We should never be without a master;
his eye should never be absent. There
is nothing derogatory or cheapening
about having a master. Every one
here has a master, no matter what his
position: he is responsible to some one,
to some board or to some organization.
ITO the extent that we get aUav
from this principle and approach the
point where every one is a law unto
himself. to just that extent we are
bolshevists, or anarchists. Bolshevism
means lack of service, lack of pro-
ductive power"

SECRETARY BAKER RELEASES
GOVERNMENT SUGAR AFTER
CANNING SEASON is OVER

Washington, July 2s.-It is an
nounced that the sale of 21,O00,000
pounds of surplus sugar held by the
War Department has been author
lied by Secretary Baker. The stocks
include 100000 pounds in storage
at New Orleans and 100000 pounds
at San Francisco. The price is to be
fixed by the United States Sugar
Equalization Board to cover the cost
to the government. III
Secretary of War Baker according
to the announcement realized that a
shortage of sugar existed in the can
ming season and decided to give the
American public the benefit of the
surplus.
Comment in Congressional circles
is that the canning season for many
fruits is already over or nearly so
and that unless the Department puts
the sugar on the market with a good
deal more CELEBRITY than it has mar
keted surplus meats and other foods
stuffs the season will be entirely over
before housekeepeNs are able to buy
any of the Government stock OF
sugar.
