A WORD TO THOSE WHO DO NOT BUY MEATS AT LEHMANS. 'If every one knew how good our meats really are, we could easily double our business... Some folka see our prices advertised and are a trifle afraid

that good meat could not be sold for so little money. Don't get such an impression in your bead. ' We, being the biggest meat buyers in Dover, can,1 and do, easily undersell every one without resorting to cheapened quality in order to lower prices. For Saturday, February 14th, and Monday, Febru-

ary 16th. we'll oner some remarkable prices on tne very finest meals. While our prices, are always uniformly low, we've cut so deep this time thatthere's no profit (a loss instead), but il we can induce you to try our meats) we think we're well repaid, Look at those prices carefully; think what you'vealways paid, and give m just onetrial. Here's the very finest qualities ana lowest of all prices; surely there's no better time than the next three days

District Attorney Wolklus Slated ForState Commla.lonorsMp ot Banking;And ln.nraiice—ninny Measure. In-troduced—Ruilroa

[Special Correspondence.]Trenton, Feb. 12.—Five weeks of the

legislative session navo boon complet-ed, and the flrst exciting event ot theterm so far occurred on Monday nightwhen Assemblymen Btalter and VanBlarcom of Pnssnic and AssemblymanMiller of Cumberland engaged In alively controversy over the Newarkarmory bill, which was passed lastweek, providing an appropriation of$125,000 for the building of an armoryfor tlie Essex troop.

Mr. Miller asked to have the housejournal corrected as far as the vote onthat bill was concerned on the groundthat the Paesalc men were recorded ashaving voted for the bill when theyshould have beeu recorded in the nega-tive. The bill was passed by a closemargin, and the two votes when prop-erly recorded Bhowed that the bill hadbeen defeated. Mr. Miller's motion waspassed, but the Newark men succeededIn havipg the matter tabled. It willbe taken up at some future time.

It Is understood that the New JerseyForest council will couie to the frontbefore long with n request for a goodBlzed appropriation for the carryingout of the law on the statute booksfor tue prevention aiid extinguishingof forest fires. State Geologist Hum-mel is prepared to show that a hun-dred thousand acres of New Jersey'stimber land had boon burned over lastyear. It is claimed that the preserva-tion of the forest lands of the stateInvolves a question of loss or gain ayear of millions of dollars to the farm-ers of the state.

Automobile Learlilatton.Tho much discussed automobile meas-

ure has at laBt been compromised, aconference between Assemblyman Sco-vel of Camden and Karl G. Roeblinand John S. Broughton of the New Jer-sey Automobile club having resultedIn an agreement to report the Camdenman's bill by subBtitute, which is toeliminate the drastic features of thebill and, while not working a hardshipto the automobiliste, IB strong enoughto protect those who use the publichighways. Mr. Scovel found the de-mands of the automoblllsts within rea-son and was willing to meet tbetn halfway, and they decided on the changesIn the bill. Governor Murphy, who Inhis annual message recommended thatthe legislature take some definite ac-tion toward the regulation of the auto-mobiles in this state, is understood tobe agreeable to the proposed changesIn the bill, and It will in all probabilitynow be passed without opposition andwill receive the executive signature.The substitute bill provides that onpublic highways ih the built up sec-tions the rate of speed is to be ten milesan hour, and twenty miles an hour Inthe rural sections is to be the maximumspeed! This bill will not affect physi-cians and surgeons while going to orreturning from professional colls whenthe emergency requires them to travelat a faster rate of speed. Accordingto the new bill, every operator of a mo-tor vehicle shall, at the signal from aperson riding or driving a restive horseor team, cause the motor to remain sta-tionary so long as may bo necessary topermit the horse or team to pass.

After a conference this week betweenAssemblyman Boyd of Essex and thecommittee representing the Federationot Catholic Societies it was agreed thatthe Boyd bill providing for a generalrevision of the tax laws should beso amended as to exempt from taxa-tion all parochial schools and otherCatholic and public school property.This class of property Is exempt underthe present law, but the Catholicschool property was omitted In the ex-empt class in the general revision bill.

The Religious Society of Friends ofFlamfleld and Shrewsbury, Burlingtonand Hsddonfield has petitioned thelegislature to favor the establishmentOf * reformatory for women In thisstate. -.

TJi* .Ocean Boulevard.The Ocean boulevard bill has made

Its appearance, having been IntroducedIn the senate on Monday night by Sen-ator Brown of Monmouth. It author-izes boards of chosen . freeholders tolay out, open and Improve public roadsupon petition ot two-thirds of the mu-nicipalities through which It la to run,The proposition la to construct a wideocean boulevard from Sandy Book toCape May. ;

The senate has confirmed these nomi-nations-sent in by the governor lastweek: Fort warden, Hudsoit county,'John J. Toffey; prosecutor, Union coun-ty, Nicholas C. J. BngllBh; judge, Hud-son county common pleas court, JohnA. Blnlr; judge, Warren county com-mon pleas court, George M. Shlpmnn.

Senator John Kenn seems to bold thekeynote to the situation relative to thenppolntment of a successor to 'WilliamBettle as state commissioner of bank-ing and Insurance.' It Is generally ac-cepted that District Attorney David O.Watklns will be tbe man—at any rat<ho Is tho individual Governor MurphyIs snid to havo In mind for tho berth,but the question of Mr. WaUdns' sueccssor seems to have much to do withthe cnBo. The governor would like t«>eo bis genial private secretary, John

Swnyro of Sussex, elevated to th<position of district attorney for NewJersey, but Senator Kcan has receive!

i From Our Boicuiar Curresixmdent.l

Washington, D. C , Feb. 9,1903.A thorough and adequate programme has

been practically completed by the Senate andIs certain to be adopted by tbe House, BO tbattbia session of Congress, notwithstanding tbebrief time at its disposal, and tbe Statehoodblockade in tbe Senate, will be able to ad-journ with the knowledge tbat It baB done allthat b possible or judicious to npbold andstreoKthen tbe hands ot tbe Attorney Generalin hiB efforts to correct tbe truBt evils. Tbeonly important feature ot tbis programmenot yet accomplished is tbe passage ot tbeElklna bill by the House, and your correspon-dent has reoelved assurances from SpeakerHenderson and the other leaders of tbe lowerchamber that it will be enacted at an earlydate.

Tbe antl-tjmt programme when enactedwill provide an appropriation of 1500,000 forthe employment of expert assistance in tbeprosecution of ontl-truntBUits; tne enactmentof a measure expediting tbe trial o? anti-trust Bulls In the courts ; the prohibition ofrebates with equal penalties on receivers andgrantors, provided by the Elklne bill; a pub-licity feature for industrial corporations in-cluded in tue bill establishing a Departmentof Commerce and Labor. The publicity fea-ture ie provided for In wb&t Is known aa tbeNelson amendment. The proposed Bureauof Corporations has been replaced with aCommissioner of Corporations who is empow-ered to oolleot and compile for tbe use of thePresident the necanarv statistics.

Tbe Interstate Commerce Commission willremain intaot Instead of being inaluded inthe new department as was intended and aswas provided in the House bill. Strength-ened by the provisions of the filklns bill, tbeCommission will become far mare effective Inits supervision of transportation companies.The assurance of tbe new department ofCommeroe and Labor Is aoooinpauied by anauthorative statement to tbe effect that G.B. Corteiyou, now Secretary to the Presi-dent, will become ite secretary and, aa such,a member of the cabinet. Mr. Corteiyou haslong been a valued advisor of tbe Presidentand has earued by nopst exceptional merit theposition for which be has been selected.

The Statehood situation in the Senate is stillIn "statue Quay," to use the witticism ofSenator Hate, but there are indications of acompromise which will be reached in tbe nearfuture. The present plan ti to adinit'Okla-homa u one State and Arlionu and NewNexloo as another.' This does not meet withthe approval of the Demoorata and for that

Senator Quay has not yet given It hisapproval, but as it becomes evident that nomore favorable arrangement can be made it 'becomes more likely that he will do so.

Tbe House of Representatives passed theLtttleneld-Anti-trust bill on Saturday and it -

ill now go to tbe Senate but will not betaken under consideration there, both timeand inclination preventing its being taken up.It will, of course, be referred to tbe Judiciaryoonunlttee of which Senator Hoar is chairman;and he assures your correspondent that he*is -very doubtful if i t will be even reported tothe Senate.

The Venezuelan controversy has not yetbeen settled although those persons in a posi-tion to know (eel confident that it will be atan early date. The 60 called "shirtsleevediplomacy" of Minister Bowen came very

pnclntating a misunderstanding thisweek and an attempt was made by tharepresentatives of the Allies to go over Mr-Bowen's head and secure the intervention and "arbitration of the President. This proposi-tion Mr. Roosevelt promptly declined andconferences with Mr. Bowen are again in pro-gress. He bas offered to each of the Allies apayment of $37,500 as an evidence ot goodfaith. His offer has not yet been accepted, aaIt is conditional on the immediate raising ofthe Veneiuelau blockade.

Practically no time has been given by-theSenate to tbe consideration of any of thetreaties now before it and tha necessity of anexern session of the upper chamber for theiroomlderation Is freely predicted. SenatorLodge told your correspondent today tbat hebelieved such a seaaion would be necessaryand tbat the President would not beeitate tocall it. A report sent out by tbe AssociatedPress to the effect that there was no hope forthe ratiucation of the Alaskan treat; provesto be wholly without foundation. S e v n otthe most prominent members of the Senatehave assures your correjpondent tbat, if asufficient time for tbe consideration of tbattreaty can be secured, f-ero will be no troublein effecting its ratification. Senators Fosterand Turner, of Washington, say that tbeirconstituents are opposed to tbe convention,but they will not Olibuster uu it and they a nopen to conviction and will be pleased to havethe advocates of tbe arrangement pro*e tothem tbat i t la in tbe beat interests of theUnited States and will not in any way injurethe existing status ot tbe Alaskan boundarydispute. If this can be done they will wich-draw their opposition.

Information has reached Washington to thaeffeot that a congressional election will takeplace In Colombia on the first ot March andthat the new Congress will meet not laterthan the Bret week in April. It is expectedthat the United States Senate will ratify tbeColombian treaty, providing for tbe construc-tion ot the Panama canal, at tbli or at an ex-tra session and it will then remain for thenewly elected Colombian Congress to ratifythe agreement. Reports from Bogota indi-cate that the treaty la generally well receivedand those from Panama state that the people,are overjoyed at the prospect of the comple-tion ot the canal which will make two ottheir cities moat Important seaport towns.Senator Morgan still continues to oppose the

treaty but as be has no lupporten ha cannotpravent Ita ratification.

THE IEON EBA, DOVER, N. J., FEBBUAKY 13, 1903.

itatlnc of DlehoucBt Alleged Commls-tloti Men Suggested a? A ^At tbe twentieth annual meeting of tbJ.Morris County Board of Agrfooltuire, W. F.

Ely. wbo baa held tbe office of pecretarysince its organization, after gluing » brief f

history or tbe work of the Board, *t*\.$d tbathe wished to call tbe attention of the Boardto ft few startling fant* lit regard-. tOybcuK, !fa] £farmers and others who consigned ~

to certain alleged commission men, areswindled. Mr. Ely then proceeded to readnojartlcle from a BuRsex county paper, rtlat-trig how a farmer at Hamburg, who bad pur-chased five barrels, paying thirty cents apieceS t b e w , fljyi after jJlJiuK them, with,.choice

Ie8,«tafpuefl them'to tbe1 city iihd in re-turn received the muniflcient sum of eightybent*, btjing seventy 'cebts1 but oii his barrels,befrides the apples and alt fete work and trouble.

To ehow that Uiin was not a fak« Rtory, Mr.Ely produced a letter'written by John Henry,of BranohviUe, who gave peruiieston to usebin .name- • In tho letter was a check for]fcw,enty five ccmta, tho proceeda of a sliipmeutof five barrels of apples. He bad bought thiapplee, paying one dollar per barrel for themand thirty cents for each barrel, making atotal of six dollars and fifty cents Tbe ap-ples were tbe fluest kings and pippins Mr.Henry could buy and tbe check for twenty-five cents represented tbe proceeda.

Tbe Jivral New Yorker, Secretary B'ywent on to Bay, frequently publish) ccomplaints of persona wbo have beenswindled. Now tbe question if, what can hedone to protect the farmers and others whoship their produce to be sold f No one willprosecute these Bwindlers and throw awaymore money when It will result in no goodThe wholesale merchants have their Hats,showing the financial standing of their customeri. The retail merchants throughout theBtate a few years ago formed a league andbad all bad debtors placid on a list, thatdealers would know whom not to trust. Soevery farmer and produce buyer who buy*to ship to commission merchants, Bbouldhave a list giving the names of irrujponslblide*lern. This cau be done by asking tbe farmand country papers to publish an nrtirjp, in-viting their readers to write letters givingwhatever experience they may have had in•nipping produce, that these men may beshown up.

SATURDAYS

OUR NEW STOREis not alone " New Jersey's Greatest Mercantile Establishment," but it enjoys the distinction of cover-

ing as grent area as that of any New York Store. In its detail of equipment and completeness, as

well as tliB superior Hue of atrictly reliable merchandise carried, it rivals any house in the country.

These are potent factors, and, standing alone, form a mighty bid for that patronage which still clings

to the mistaken idea that " it's not risht' 'unless purchased in New York. The argument, however,

guius strength -when the comparison of prices proves beyond a shadow of doubt that a positive saving

is evident on identical merchandise, which is sold in New York stores at from 10 to 25 per cent, be-

yond prices quoted by us.

A bill for the revision nna codlflctlon of all the oyster and clam la^has been introduced in tue liouae 1>Assemblyman Miller of Oumberloncand It Is believed that the propose'law will satisfy both the oystermc!and the clammers, between "Wbom tner<has always been bitter and sometime:riotous contention. The bill, whlcwas prepared by the commission tovestigate the matter, makes lew Bweeping changes and creates no new eondiUOUB. It takes oil tbe provisions of thilaws now applying to Delaware hnjand Blaurtee Elver cove and appliethem to all tho waters of the state laso far as Is practicable.

The Uallrona Dflls.It is expected that a strenuous flgW

vrill be made by the railroad lobbyistsognlnst the bills now before the legisla-ture designed to prevent a repetitionof Buch a horror as the Central rollroad collision at Plalnileld several doyiago, but it Is generally accepted thatleast one of the bills providing for aiextra man on every locomotive enginiof the "camel back" type will paBS amwill receive the governor's signatureThe "two firemen" bill failed of passage n tew years ago by reason of thiinfluence of the railroad lobby, but thirecent catastrophe affords an opportinity of pressing this matter, and thenis every prospect that tbe "two firemen" bill will be successful this year.

The Central railroad accident haigiven rise to considerable speculatiorelative to the advisability of the eretion of a state railroad commission fo:New Jersey. The suggestion ofbill providing for such a body has nolmet with gwicral favor, it being claim-ed that the railroads operating in thBtate are, as a rule, well conducted andthat a railroad commission would bean expensive luxury.

Senator Wakelee'B voting machlmbill lias sot made Its appearance as yebut it will in all probability be intro-duced shortly, and there is every pros-pect that it will receive speedy and fa-vorable consideration at the hands othe lawmakers. There is an impres-sion in some quarters that tiie proposedmeasure does not go far enough, Inas-much as it only provides for the pur-chase by the state of a limited numbeof these machines to be installed In asmany of the voting districts of tbstate as would give them a tborougltrial and show their good merits oif titbe voters to the best advantage. Tbimachines cost $500 apiece, and to placeone in each of the 1,114 voting districtsof the state would entail on outlay o:tbe part of the state of more than lial:a million dollars. It is pointed out thaiso many machines would not be need-ed, as their use would malic It possibleto consolidate voting districts as theyare at present constituted and that,while tbe expenditure on the part olthe state would be large, the invest-ment would be a good one. SenatoiWnkelce's bill is designed as an enter-ing wedge, and it is hoped by a Judi-cious use of tbe machines to be boughby the state at the next election sucha popular demand for them will be cre-ated that there will be no objection Ifan appropriation of several hundredthousand dollars is made next year topurchase a sufficient number of them.

Educational Matters.Passalc city offers tbe state two

acres of ground, at the choice of thestate board of education, for the pro-posed Dew normal school.

Assemblyman Treacy of Hudson be-fore the house committee on educationon Monday nlglit suggested that therebe two normal schools in the northernpart of the state and advised that onebe established in Hudson and the otherin Essex county.

Before the house committee on education last Monday night Dr. AustinScott, president of Rutgers college; D.D. Denlse, president of the state boardof agriculture, and Professor B. B.Voorhees urged the continuation of thefree scholarships in the agriculturaldepartment of Rutgers college.

The bouse has passed a Joint resolu-tion authorizing the governor to ap-point a commission of five to reportto the. next legislature the advisabilityof establishing a state reformatory forwomen. . •

House bill No. 70, permitting the es-tabllshment of firemen's relief associa-tions in two adjoining districts, haspassed the house, applying particularlyto Gloucester county.

For an Executive- Mansion.Two bills have been introduced In

the senate by Leader Wakelee lookingto the establishment of an executivemansion and the extension of the State-house grounds. The first of these au-thorizes the statehouse commission,comprising the governor, state treasur-er and comptroller, to acquire by gift,grant or purchase any existing resi-dence iu Trenton-, together with thelands and premises, for a guberna-orial mansion, or to build an exocutlvo

home, if deemed advisable, not morethan $50,000 to be expended for thatpurpose.

The second bill provides for the en-largement of tho cnpltol grounds for100 feet on either or both sides of thepresent ground and between West State•street, upon which the capital Is locat-ed, and tho Delaware river in the rearof the same, the property to be acquir-ed by gift, grant, purchase or condem-nation through municipal action. Anappropriation of ?76,O0O Is providedtor this extension. .

It would appear as if the bill to pre-ent pigeon shooting in this state was

doomed to die in committee, althoughAssemblyman Williams will leave nostone unturned to bring; tho measurelefore the house and Jwve it fomrhtut on its merits. -There Is said to

have been strong political influencebrought to bear to have the bill killed.

JUST ten years ago this great business was founded—a business destined to takeprecedence and become a potent factor in the mercantile life of Newark.A celebration sale, planned to in every way eclipse the greatest of all that have

gone before, is now in progress. Colossal in proportions and involving thousands ofbargains so absolutely without parallel in the entire history oi retailing achievement,that it will be cited for years to come as an occasion of the most ruthless sacrificingever known in this country. Scores of manufacturers and importers, sharing in theenthusiasm attending this celebration, have contributed liberally to its success, andmany lines are selling for a mere fraction of regular markings and actual cost of pro-duction. Not an assembling of inferior merchandise or passe styles, but a carefullygarnered stock of high grade and seasonable goods, including women's, misses' andchildren's outer garments, muslin underwear, hosiery, gloves, shoes and all kinds ofhome or personal requisites..

Purchased Below Value and Selling atCost and a Loss.

The money saving opportunities offered are such that no one, with a present orpossible need, can afford to let them slip by unheeded. Just six days, remember,and bear in mind that in addition to a guarantee that no article advertised can beduplicated for less than a quarter to a third more, double and three times the pricesasked, money will be refunded for any reason dissatisfaction follows purchase.

Beginning Monday, February 9th.Ending Saturday," February 14th.

ABMiablyraau Thomas J. Hillery mndo himaiden epeech in the assembly on Monda,night. He had fntiw'iiwwi en uniendmoutan act entitled "An act relating to couihaving criminal jurisdiction uuii reguluttnproceedings in crimfnal cases," as follows;

"Be it enacted by tJjo Senate and General"Atrsembly of the Htatu of New Jersey:

"J. Section eigbty-flve of Baid act he n"mended so oa to read as follows:"65. When a trinl shall be concluded in an"of tbe courts of this Btate, or any indict"ment, It shall be the duty of the sheriff"the county whera the verdict shall be ren"dered to pay to the witnesses who shall hav"been duly sworii or affirmed to testify in be-"half of the Btata or of tliB defendant or de-fendants their legal fees before they leav•"the court; provided, however, that no fees"•hall be paid to any witness sworn or affirmed to testify in behalf of the defenrtan4'or defendants, unless such payment shall bi"approved by the court."

Mr. Hillery'H speech to support of tinamendment was brief and to the point an<upon conclu-ibn, tbjre being no further r<marb«, the amendment wna passed by the un-animous vote of the members present,number of Mr. Hillary's MorriB county con-stituents who happened to be iu the assombVchamber at the time, took occasion to con-gratulate Mr. Hiilery upon the successfuloutcome of his maiden effort in the Legis-lature.

The New JerBtty Hfparian Board has for-warded to the Secretary of War a protest

' agaiDBt thB appeal of the Dock Department olNew York from the decision of the HarboiHue Board. The Dock Department askedfor the privilege of extending the pier line 20Cfeet beyond the existing TOO foot limit betweeiCanal street and vfeat Thfrtletb street. TfacHarbor Line Board denied the application^and the Dock Department appealed. TheUew Jersey board obj°cts because thoextenslon is asked where the river Is narrowest,especially at Castle Point, where New Jersey'pier line is limited to 200 feet and where apier cannot be constructed inland unlessrocky promontory is cut away. ThB NeJersey board asserts that It* rights bhould borecognized, and tbatif New York receives tbprivilege or extending its pier line, the a armright should be granted to New Jersey.

Oa toe morning ot November 11, Wiltbur-ger said, he missed bU train and walked outto EJBnvilt where be met Mrs. Lyon.

INTENTIONS THAT COUNT.OnlrThoae Put Into Practice Amount

to An>*tlilns>.The paving of the road to a very un-

comfortable place 1B said to be com-posed of good Intentions. Nowhere elsehas thlB material beeu tried for paving,though It is plentiful -enough for almostany purpose. We all know people-whose houses burn when they are"jtiBt going to" Insure, who lose a cow«r a horse when they are "just goingto" mend the fence or close the gate,who are "Just going to" buy stockwhen It goes up like a rocket, who are"just golug to" pay a note when it goesto protest, who are "Just going to" helpa neighbor when he dies, who are "justgoing to" Bond Borne flowers to a sickfriend when it proves too late. In fact,they are "just golug to" do things alltheir lives, but never get them started.

"To be always Intending to live anew life, but never to find time to setabout it," says THIotson, "is as If aTaan should put off eating and drinkinguntil he Is starved to death."

Under every clock in a fuctory utCleveland, O., Is the motto, "Do Itnow!" Such a motto, lived up to byevery one, would spare the world muchtrouble. It would add thousauds ofgood deeds to daily happenings, savemany Urine from bankruptcy throughbad debts, paint hundreds of picturesonly dreamed of, write books withoutnumber and straighten out half thetangles of our complicated social life.The habit of putting off disagreeableduties Is responsible for much needlessunhapptneBS, for these bugbears weighon the mind and-prcvent the satisfiedcontent that conies from duty well per-formed. Most tasks promptly under-taken prove less difficult than we nntic-lpated, aud the joy of accomplishmentoften compensates for any hardship ex-perienced.

Don't get to be known for unfulfilledgood Intentions. Good intentions car-ried out become '.he good deeds thatmake men' useful, loved and famous.Doing things ratlin than Just planningthem makes all the difference betweeneuccesH and failure.—Success.

iu the Ice Asre.Hany boys and girls cannot under,

•tond how it could have been «o coldon thus continent at one tune that itwas covered with ice, at least down tothe fortieth degree of latitude. Theyreason about this way—that the sur-face of the earth was always exposedto the sun'B heat exactly as It l i now,and, if that be BO, why was this part oftbe continent once as cold as the arcticregions, whereas now It is temperate?

Ths explanation given by geologiststs very simple. The northern part ofour continent had at that time an ele-vation several thousand feet greaterthan It has now, to that, like the topof a high mountain, it extended abovethe snow Hue into the region of per-petual Ice. It was, In fact, an Immenseglacier, holding the land In Its coldgrasp.

This was long before man came onthe earth and is known as the glacialperiod, which lasted for about 160,000years. As the ages passed the glaciermoved toward the south very slowlyIndeed, but melting as it moved, untilafter awhile It melted entirely away,leaving the continent as It now Is, atemperate region, because Its elevationIs so much reduced below the snowline.

PROFITThe matter of feed is of

tremendous importance to the

fanner. Wrong feeding is

loss. Right feeding is profit

The up-to-date farmer knows

what to feed his cows to get

the most milk, his pigs to get

the most pork, his hens to

get the most eggs. Science.

But how about the children ?

Are they fed according to

science, a bone food if bones

are soft and undeveloped, a

flesh and muscle food if they

are thin and weak and a blood

food if there is anemia?

Scott's Emulsion is a mixed

food; the Cod Liver Oil in it

makes flesh, blood and muscle,

tlie Lime and Soda make bone

ind brain. It is the standard

scientific food for delicate

:hildren.
