Court Proceedings

The April term of the Salem County
Court began on Tuesday. Judge Black
presided and with him on the bench
was his new associate, Judge Ralph W.:
E. Donges, who succeeds Hon. Howard
Carrow. Judge Washington was i'll
i'll and unable to attend. He has been
confined to his home in Woodstown
with a severe attack of rheumatism.
He hopes to make his appearance at
to-day.s session, however.
Judging from the way the listed
cases were marked the term is not
likely to be an extended one Twenty
one cases were listed in the Circuit
Court and e.even in the Supreme
Court. About % caces were turned
over to- the Gral.u ~ tor consldera-
ton.
Out of town lawyers maze quite a
showing at the opening. Among them
was former Judges Royal P. fuller and
Leroy Loder, of Cumberland County;
Attorneys J.. Ogden Burt and Frank S.
Mckee, of Bridgeton; Attorney Frank
Tuso, of Vineland; Attorney Patrick
H. Harding, of Camden, and Attorney
Joseph J. Summerill, Jr., of Woodbury..
The first case moved was that of the
Rudolph Wurlitzer Company of Penn
sylvan.a vs. Mitchell E. Lattos of Penns
Grove. - G1fea5e wcs offered and
the iury rctc-ncd Z verdict of $3199.50.
Lattos purchased a 5000 piano-or-
chestra for which he paid $3.50 cash
and the balance of the price was to be
paid in instruments. After he had de-
faulted in the payments demand was

answer the letters or to surrender the
instrument so action in replevin was
instituted.
The next ease up was that of Davis
Watkins Dairymen's Manufacturing
Company VS. International Dry Milk
Corporation, William T. Mifflin, Sheriff
and Alonzo S. Ackley, was also moved.
No defense was made and a general
verdict for the plaintiff was rendered
by instruction from the Court.
At noon on Tuesday the jurors were
dismissed until to-day (Friday).
When Judge Donges announced that
he would hear requests of any jurors
who desired to be relieved of duty,
nearly the whole panel came forward.
There are many farmers on the list
and it is a great hardship to be kept
from their work at this season of the
year. The Judge said he would do
everything possible to assist the farm
ers, but he could not relieve all from
duty who had applied as there would
be none left to try the cases.
Judge Black in his charge to the
Grand Jury said there were no special
matters to refer to, but he asked that
such business as they had before them
be given careful attention.
He also said it was within the pro-
vince of the jurors to investigate, if
need be, the expenditure of the coun-
tvs funds and if they should find that
the money is spent properly they
should say so by a report to the Court
so as to instil confidence in the public
officials.
Constables Harbeson, Peacock and
NanMeter were selected as officers for
the Jury.
Applications were filed by William
D. Acton, of Pennsville, and William
Moore of Centreton, for inn and tavern
licenses. These Judge Black said
would be referred to Judge Wadding-
ton to dispose of.

THE INDIAN POPULATION.

Franklin K. Lane, former secretary Of the inter
.or department recently made the surprising state
ment that there Indians in the United
States now than there were in LIncoIns time and
perhaps many there in Washngtons
time.
The entire Indian population in 1910 265.6S8.
What IL is today is a matter OF conjecture though
II win be revealed by the new census report.
Mr.. Lane says that the Indians have been increas-
ing of late and takes ch satisfaction therein 1t
does not seem likely however, that they have grown
TO more than 100000.
Can 1t be true that there than 30O-
redskins this country half century ago. or
even century ago? If so it does not seem likely
that there were ever any more than that for sure
" there reason why the natives should have
greatly diminished in numbers from the time Of
Columbus to that Washington

out excessive crOwding on the whole by 10. OOO-

ments OF 100000 making as much trouble for all

wars.
The Indian has filed big place in American his

respectable niche in national life effort at
the present time. destined to rlay
larger role hereafter.
The turn OF the population tide the beginning OF

that racial vgor is reasserting itself that the Indian

Is always 20 be remembered that the North Amer
