that the people of New Jersey were
consuming more intoxicants than
yer before. Cleary said Governor
Edwards should remove the prose-

to enforce the law.
Senator Simpson, of Hudson. rail-
lied to the defense of the governor.

constitutional officers and cannot be
removed by the governor" queried
the Hudson senator. Most of the
county prosecutors are Republicans"
said Simpson, land the way to get

Il see that the labor organizations

opposed TO their interests. We are
working for everybody and do not
believe in class legislation. The men
who control the State Federation of

is Arthur a. Quinn, who was a
Democratic assemblyman from Mid

This great organization is being sub

INDEPENDENT IN POLITICS

ADVANCING MONEY RATES

The United States govern
ment is issuing Treasury Certi-
ficates of Indebtedness amount
ing to $3.50, 100000 at 5 and 5A
per cent, thus establishing new
high interest rate for the gov
eminent. Liberty bonds recently
fell to point which would yield
about Z per cent.
This has a direct bearing on
the high cost of living. When
government securities bring this
rate of interest it means that
private firms and corporations
seeking money for development
purposes must pay higher rates
of interest for the simple reason
that government securities have
always set the standard for low
rates of interest and money for
individual or corporate loans
brought higher rates.
Particularly does this affect
public utility bonds. In 1914
such bonds brought the investor
some 5 to 6 per cent. The in
weston today, however, will not
loan money for private account
at such rates when he can make
the same rate or better from
government securities. Hence
it is necessary for utility and
railroad companies to offer a
much higher rate of interest in
order to secure funds for extern
sions and improvements. This
necessarily must be reflected in
the fixed operating costs of
these companies and increased
rates for service must be charg-
ed to cover this added cost of Sc
curing capital.
Thus, is everyday life of the
public affected bv advancing
cost of operation of our govern
ment. These facts must be re-
cognized by public utility COM
missions in establishing rates
for public utility service.

TO SAVE GOLD MINING.

AS our gold supply is rapidly
disappearing due to the impos-
sibility of mining gold at the
present price of S20.67 an ounce,
a bill has been introduced in
Congress which would establish
a premium of SO an ounce on all
gold sold by the government for
manufacturing purposes such as
jewelry, etc. The price to the
mint for coinage purposes would
remain the same. The $40 an
ounce premium thus collected
would be paid by the govern
ment to the gold miner to help
cover his increased cost of opera
ton and thus prevent the dis
appearance of the gold mining
industry of the United States.
Governor Emmett ID. Boyle of
Nevada has pointed out that the
annual consumption of gold for
manufacturing purposes la t
year exceeded production in this
country by approximately $21,-
100000 and the discrepancy will
be greater this year.
Industry is paying a greater
price for everything except gold
and the increased price per
ounce will save the day without
changing the gold standard thus
upsettmg our whole system of
values and credits.
