The American Unitarian Associa-
tion went on record as opposed to the
resolution for the release of tho So
called political prisoners and it is
gratifying to note that Names chief
Justice was among those opposed.
There seems to be no good reason to
suppose that our courts erred in
sending those people to prison for
crimes which arc in no way palliated
b, q . end of the war. Those Offend
crs were duly tried and found guilty
OF doing the most they could to aid
our enemy and because they failed is
70 reason why they should have the
badge OF innocence affixed to them.

known beyond any reasonable doubt
In one of these cases there We're two
victims. A man was arrested, tried and
convicted of the killing Of one-there
being two separate indictments, and
after serving a time in prison was pa
rolled. In the other case the murderer
has never been arrested, although the
indictment has never been squashod.
The only reason ever advanced is that

DON'T WAIST THE TAXPAYERS MONEY

It is to be hoped that the Board OF Freeholders Will not
deliberately waste the twelve or fifteen thousand dollars that
have already been spent on plans and specifications for the
county tuberculosis hospital that the board cOntemplates
erecting. While the plans may call for too elaborate a plant
to be erected all at once, it ought to be possible to so modify
The plans as to meet present requirements.
Judging from the number of tubercular patients now
being cared for by the county and the number on the wait
ing list, a sanitarium to accommodate at least 400 ought to
be built now. This will probably be all that the county will
require for some time. There is every reason to believe that
will slight alterations, if deemed necessary, the plans 1or.
which the taxpayers have already paid ought to serve.
All this talk about a new site being purchased and new
plans and specifications being drawn arouses the suspicion
that the main reason for not wanting to use what the county
already has is that the present f~reeholders want the oppor-
tunity themselves to buy the land and to award the contract
for plans and specifications.
Why put the taXpapeyers. to all that extra expense mere
w to crafty personal ambition? The site the county already
owns for the tuberculosis sanitorium is admirably located,
easily accessible from all parts of the county. The tract in
cludes one of the highest spots in the county. The land was
bought at a reasonable figure and there is nothing to be
gained as far as the county is concerned by selling it and
buying a site elsewhere.
Likewise, the plans and specifications that have cost
The county thousands of dollars are ample. Why waste this
money? Director Dey gave the taxpayers to understand, in
his annual address at the reorganization of the board, that
The utmost economy would be exercised in running the
county this year. Here is an opportunity to show it. With
an excellent site and with plans and specifications all com
plete, it remains only for the f%reeholders to make such
sliQht alterations as may be deemed necessary to the plans
and advertise for the bids, once the necessary bonds are pro-
vided for. s.
Other things in the county can wait if there is not
money enough to do all that is 6 esired-let this be county
sanitarium year.

WHY SINGLE OUT MIDDLESEx

Middlesex county taxpayers are fully justified in organ
ling to protect their interests. 1t looks as II an attempt was
being made to make this county the goat. Granted that as
sessments are not made at true value here, neither. are they
made at true value anywhere in the state. The injustice OF
singing out any one or two counties in this manner is rec
nized everywhere. The Mount Holly Mirror, one of Burling-
ton county's leading newspapers, has this to say on the
subject:
"North Jersey counties are engaging in a war OF re-
examination with respect to values for purposes of taxation
ia the respective counties. Union county has entered COM
plaint against Middlesex before the State Board OF Taxes
and Assessment and Essex has lodged similar information
a6ainst Morris county, while the attitude of Hudson seems
10 Pc that the whole state, outside of its own county boun-
darl>s, is an offender.
1he obvious effort on the part of the complaining coun-
lies Is +p have the assessed valuations of the other fellow
raised, alu he ultimate result bids fair to be a general sur
vey OF al 1.-THE twenty-one counties. When that is made it
is propaplo hat it will be found that assessed values are be-
low the uN value in every county, probably in no less de-
gree in thos counties which have been making complaint
against nen Ncighbors"

SENATOR NEwBERRY's TAINTED SEAT

The United States senate does not add anything to us
reputation and prestige by its act in seating Truman II. New
berry as senator from the state OF Michigan. Senator New
berry was accused of having secured his election through
corruption. It was admitted that at least $195,OOO was spent
in his campaign and that means that, actually, there was q
great deal more. 1t is quite evident to the country that MT.
Newberry practically bought his seat in the senate, or, at
least. it was bought for him.
1t is significant that when Senator Borah made his mas
terlv address against the seating of Senator NeWberry a Few
DAVIS ago there was not a man to answer him. When Senator
Borah had finished the senator's sal in silence for a minute or
two and then passed on to other business. The speech OF
Senator Borah was said to be one Of the greatest OF his ca
reer. When the vote seating Senator Newberry was fnally
taken Senator Borah stigmatzed it as "a brand OF shame.
Both the New Jersey senators voted In favor OF seating
Senator Newberry, their vote being dictated more by their
party loyalty than by conscience.
In New Jersey a movement is now on foot TO cut down
The amount of money a candidate for the United States may
legally spend as campaign expenses. 1t is now possible 1or
a candidate to spend $4,000 to get elected. While this sum
sinks into insignificance compared with what was spent In
Senator Newberry's campaign, it is far too large. Let new
Jersey be spared the odium that is now cast upon the state
of Michigan which, in turn, acts to the discredit oil the
United States senate.

son Foundation
The sixty minutes between noon
and n o'clock on Monday, jan
uary i6, are to be given by his
tlonal committee for the Woodrow
Wilson Foundation has designated
this period as the "Wilson Hour"
with the request that it be observ-
ed by all friends of Mr.. Wilson and
be levers in his principles through
out the country.
The Wilson Hour" will mark
the opening OF the campaign to
establish a foundation of $1,000,000
or more to endow the Woodrow Will
son awards for distinguished public
service. During that hour contribu-
lions will be received but not sought.
All men and women connected
with the organization of the founda-
tion-state chairmen, treasurers and
state committee members. county
and local chairnlen. and individual
canvassers-will be in their homes
or offices ready to receive contribu-
tions of the foundation which will
honor MI. Wilson and perpetuate his
principles.
In this hour, in every community
in the country. we hope, the friends
Of Mr.. Wilson will stand, up and he
counted.
Every person who stands by the
rinciples for which Wilson fought,
will have the opportunity to express
his allegiance to the faith that is
within him.
The Wilson Hour" will give an
opportunity to this generation to
show to what extent it can recog-
nize greatness in it's own time.

ty, "let him bear in mind that the
hollow in a tooth can easily harbor

favorable opportunity to get into the

propagation of the germ and the
exploitation of the malady."
Colonel Roosevelt heads the list
of impressive fatalities attributed to
focal infection. According to the
bulletin issued at the time of. his
death, he "had been suffering from
an attack of rheumatism about two
months. His progress had been en-
tirely satisfactory and his condition
