CORRESPONDENCE
Correspondents are particularly
requested to send in all news in
tended for publication not later
than Wednesday in each week to in
sure insertion.
LAYTON.
Tho New Jersey State tax commission
will recommend to the Legislature a modi
fication of the tax laws as applied to per
sonal property . Theyjaro satisfied that a
fanner whose personal property Is all In
sight Is easily reached by the Assessor
while the city man whose personal estate
Is not so plainly In evidence as easily cs
capus. The commissioners estimate that
in rural communities 90$ of personal Is
taxed, and In citlos and village only 80.
This Is drawing It yet a little stronger than
our Sandyston assessor did, last fall, when
he asked the Sussex County Board of As
sessors to enter Into a comparison of town
duplicates with those of agricultural town
ships. It Is strange In the face of all this
that Newton's assessor could so flllbutser
the vote as to defeat the motion. Strange
indeed.
The church at Layton needs a coat of
paint some window glass puttied In and a
set of new tie poles. Tho present ones
will do If the frost don't go out. Get up
and hustle brethren.
There was a dance at the home of An
d 'ew Morris last Friday night. Being
moonlight with good sleighing parties
came from Nowton and Branchvlllo. As
semblyman Smith fiddled to a crowded
bouse, and everybody had a good time. 40
numbers were sold.
Misses Cora Hursh and Theana Owens
returned from Newark on Monday. They
report a very agreeable visit with friends
during their stay
Hon. E. E. Smith la now In the Loglsla
tlve Halls at Trenton, and his lieutenant,
who promised some of the voters before
election that Elvin would have the fi.h
laws knocked Into a cocked hat sliou.il
glide down at once and see that those,
promises are kept. Lieutenant they have
an eye on you.
Almost every year we hear that some
one has dug down upon tho unreeognlzabla
remains of the dead who bave mouldered
away In the grave yard at Layton. It has
become much crowded and some of the
unmarked graves are so grown over that
this sort of thing Is so liable to happen
that when It does It calls ont but little
comment. A field purchased back or
north of the present grave yard, and laid
out as a cemetery would meet with popu
lar approval.
John A. Westbrook and Ed Layton were
down to the Big City last week and each
bought a "hoss." As soon as the frost
goes out so the rood can be touched up
with tho road machine, there will be some
records broken. Clarence has an eye on
each of them, and a good warch and It
luoks as If something was going to happen
pretty soon.
We wonder why "Honest Johuf" don't
give us one of those cute aud touching lit
tle articles about "suckers aud trout" that
his pen used to touch upon so airily.
Highraiu has a f uud of experience on such
mutters bigger than a huystack, and we
long so to hear from hliu. Don't be bash
ful Highraiu there lsu't anybody lookiu at
you.

The Directors of the Headlugtou Mutual
Assurance company met with Mrs. Jennie
Myers Itut week aud satisfactorily adjust
ed the loss recently Incurred by the burn
ing of her dwelling near Haiuesviile.
The many friend of Jobu Abers will be
pleased to learn that he Is recovering from
his recent severe illness and hope that he
will soon reguiu bis usual good health.
Eruet.t Brown now living at Dloiuaus
Furry wears a smile that can uliuost be

arrival lu his family of a lusty baby boy.
The sleighiug has got down to hard pan
and everybody is wishing for more snow.
The bottom is good, aud duos not uuod but

The Oyster buppor at HaluesvlUc lu&ty
week was not as great a success as thc.t
generally make sueh things up there.
Maybe the eysrrt had been a long tune
from home, but that shouldn't matter,
just paint them over with a little Iodine
roll them In cracker dust, and fry with a
pluch of garlie, to a doltunte seal brown.
Yon wouldn't know the difference.
The small boy says the eclipse of the
moon last Friday night was no great
shakes for he could see It without a
smoked glass even.
Wm. Crone who purchased the John I.
Bevans farm last spring died at his home
ou Tuesday night after quite a protracted
illness. Mr. Crone was a rosected citizen
and the community sympathize with the
family In their bereavement. Funeral
services on Friday last followed by the In
terment In the oemetery at Layton,
Now the toe crop Is ripe and several of
our neighbor are either filling or making
preparations to do so at an early day.
Tho widows of veterans who have mar
ried again are stated as costing the govern
ment 9)0.0110 dally In pensions, or about
three and a half millions yearly. The first
step In pensions reform will quite likely
affect these, first because they have no
moral claim and second, because they
have no vote.
We are impressed by the gravity of the
situation that called on the National Trea
sury for 141 millions of dollars last year,
and is expected to reach the enormous
sum of 170 millions of dollars three years
later for war pensions. An Idea oan be
formed of its mngultude when !t Is known
that the cost of the Army: Tho Naval
Service including new construction of war
vessels; Tho Indian Service; And the In
terest on tho National Debt Is exceeded by
the sum paid out for pensions. It Is pro
bable that tho first steps toward correct
ing the evils of the present system Will be
the publication of the pension roll by
States, and by cutting off tho widows of
veterans who have married agnin.
Supt. Luther Hill called on tho schools

It Is said John Buckley, who left Ding-

Washington, has a high fever the Klon-
dyke fever, and thinks nothing but a
