COMMUNICATIONS West Gape May, N. J., Oct. 12th Dear Mrs. Scnellenge^j It has pleased our Heavenly Father to call home our dear brother, Charles Bchellenger, who was a true -friend and co-worker in our Sunday school. One whom we all loved and honored for his true Christian character and for bis earnest and faithful work in our Sunday school. We realize that we as a Sunday school have lost a< beloved friend, a faithful teacher, who earnestly labored by this words and ertampie to lead souls to Jesus. Aud while we believe that our Heavenly Father doeth all things well and we desire to be submissive to his divine will, we can not restrain our grief and sorrow. When , we realize that he i« no longer one of ( our number, we are ready to cry out in the words of the Psalmist, "Help, Lord for the Godly man ceaseth ; for the faithful fail from among the children of men." He has gone Home; his work with 1 OS as a teacher is finished ; his mem- i ory is dear to us ; his kind words and i good wofks will abide with us. The < wefks with

x good seed be has aoen will yet bring forth a harvest to the honor and glory of God. Dear sister, you have lost a kind and loring companion, and dear Bessie, a kind and laving father. May the dear Lord bless and comfort you. We as a Sunday school tender you our heartfelt sympathy. We believe that our loss wsb his eternal gain. He has fought his Ufa's battle and gained victory through Jesus Christ aud is now with the Redeemer in Glory. Cape Chapel Sunday School. W. L. CUMMINGS. MRS. CHAS. WILLIS, ELIZA W. REEVES, Committee. WEST CAPE MAY IF YOU PLEASE Mr. Editor : We are so frequently reminded of the danger of losing our identity by careless expressions, both spoken and published in regard to the name of toe place in which we live, so that our local habitation and name becomes confusing. especially to si rangers. The cfore to the outside world, s emingly, we are the quiet, denizens of a place without any importance, set off on 1 some by-road, miles aw<y from the railroad end no even having a postoffice. As one of the reminders almost weekly, of one of your worthy correspondents, our readers are thoughtlessly informed that Mr. and Mrs. Blank, from Eldredge. were visitors in his vil« : lage. And we write in behalf of the : people of this borough, usually of long- ( Buffering patience, to seriously object i to th'B unjust and thoughtless mixup i and confusion of names, because it i gives very erroneous and belittling i impression to strangers. We are b ' I town of a thousand people and for < I growth and progress we are, in pro- 1 portion to our size, not a whit behind t the adjoining City of Cape May. It j c waa belittling enough to be deprived ' 1 by the government from giving our I a name to tHe postqffice, and which we 1 should never have' submitted to, "with- i out protest. But to have people call s the place "after the postoffice" is quite the reverse of all Dcourietv. That n propriety.

there is no such place' as Eldredge in all this region, needs no mention. West Oape May is not a little country side cross-roads village, with a single grocery and smithshop land a few scattared bouses, as some of our friends, in an indifferent way would impress strangers to believe it to be, and aeveral miles from anywhere, and off from the railroad. Thus making Eldredge seem to be "the real thing, " the important railroad town, the distributing point, the R. F. D. centre of mail out-P-t for "distant inland West Cape Mag," and Eldredge reputedly to be ■ the tawa of thrift, intelligence ami in-

dustrial operations, where there has been for many, years more dwellings erected, in proportion to our populai tion and wealth than in Oape May City during the same period, utiUl.it r has become one of the most beautiful i boroughs of comfortable homes, fiae 1 boulevards, uniform streets and ele- . gant sidewalk' improvements, to te I found in the county. I And this place we would therefore, i have all the world know, is not Eldredge but West Cape May. There is ' no sqch place as Eldredge, it has no i local habitation — only a name — and 1 that of an office only. And. Mr. I Editor, when we go visiting in the i domain of your correspondents or to 1 ^urope, please do not allow thetn to ■ report us "from Eldredge," but from "West Cape May." We--t Side of the Queen citv of the AtlanticCoast, and we shall be fully satisfied I with the amende. . FIAT JUSTCTIA. To the Editor of Star aod Wave : Dear Sir : — One of the most valuable : pieces of land we have in our city is i the Stockton lawn, on the Beach i front. The sidewalks are in a moat i deDlorable condition Thee art* rau. f ie are

g ered with weeds. 'Would think our y city fathers would not permit this. while in our neighboring village they 1 are laying cement walks. They should notify owner of the land that a paver meni must be laid, and the walks kept in order.t TAX PAYER. t Editor of Cape May Star and Wave : y Dear Sir Several times this fall I It noUred articles in your valuable paper refering to the Anti-Saloon League and Local Option, in rather a disparaging manner. Last week's issue contains an article evidently designed to deceive the voter and to prejudice the . minde of the people against the Anti- ' Saloon League and its work. Kindly permit me through the Col- 1 umns of your newspaper to set before | ' the reader iusc what Local Option is ' and the reasons for it. Then let them j I judge for themselves- Local Option ! i and the Local Option Bill to which you refered simply means th» following : "Whenever thirty per cent, of the legal voters of any city, village, ' borough, town, township, or any other municipality, --.hall petition tbe county judge to do so. he shall set aside ar : election day other than th- regular day, so as to keep the matter entirely free from partisan politics, on which day the voter of such city, village, borough, town or township, or any other municipality, can assemble at the ballot box, and cast their ballots i for or against the proposition of granting Ii enses in such city, village, borough, town, township or other municipality, and if found tbst the majority of the voters have east their ballots \ against licenses, then the majority ' shaH prevail. There shall be no ! | licenses issued. And if it be found ! that the giajority have cast their bal- i lots for licenses then the majority , shall prevail, and the present condition < of licenses shall prevail. " The courts I not passed upon this reasonable and just method of dealiug with -the * question in this State, therefore, 1 is presumption for any individual to * that it is unconstitutional. ' Now permit met • to state why the t people are in favor of this method of

n dealing with the liquor business. !• 1- It is an American principle and f not the decree' of an influential politie cian for personal or political gain, e 2. It allows the principle of "home , i rule" to prevail, f government ot the b people themselves who are most - affected by the business. i 3. The people who pay the taxes»and : support the government of town, city - or stale, should he permit tea to say r what shall be done with a business - that affin is is nil imim^ni si sir i 4. To thrust a saloon upon the people i contrary to the earoeeA. pretest of a large majority of a community, as L

i frqeuently done, is u«t only un-Amer-i ican, but tyrannical. JAMES BURNS. t We agree perfectly with most of the 1 statements made at ove ny our fnend, I ■ Rev. James. Burns. We must, of • course, object strenuously to his asser- ■ tion that we have published or would publish anything "designed to deceive the voter or to prejudice the minds of i the people against the Anti-Saloon I i League and its work " What we have I i said, we believe fto be susceptible of J I absolute proof, snd it was published to j inform voters not to deceive them, i i There are very few voters who do not i understand what local option means ! and if the various bills presented to the j legislature had embodiel no other) provisi on than those slated by our cor- j • respondent, it would probably have passed with little objection unless the | phrase "or any other municipality" is j I inter, reted to include a county as a | < 1 1 is not presumption at all for an ' individual like Governor Fort, learned ! j in the law and its interpretation as he I < is. to pronounce an opinion as to the 1 constitutionality of any measure what- i r- ever, and it is certainly within his

ir line of duty as Governor, to prevent i. the passage of un ound bills, open to y annullment wheuever reviewed before d the courts. It was not a "method" s- which was pronounc d uncontitutionai, it but a bill proposed lor the ^plication of the "method. " There U no m re earnest believer in "home rule" and in bringing the process of government close to the people With whom its powers originate than we are and we r are heartily in favor of local option e npon any question whatever, affecting - the interests of any locality, but let it - be 1<>cal option, pure and simple, with0 out restriction, and available at any e time the people may desire it. This - is the only kind which will ever be adopted. * Nothing has transpired in this 5 county to indicate that the people are b particularly interested in the subject. 1 It is so self-evident a proposition that l ! it excites liitle attention. It is the i Burke insolvence and the Burke* false statements that has aroused indig- ] ' nation- ; ! , FEEBLE OLD LADT Has Strength Restored By 1 j Vinol I Mrs. Michael Bloom of Lewlstowu, ! , Pa., who Is 80 years of age. says: "For j a long time I have been so feeble that j I have had to be wheeled around in * 1 an invalid's chair. I had no strength J and took oold at the slightest provoca- r tion, which invariably settled on my 1 lungs, and a cough would result My I son learned of the cod liver prep- £ aratlon called Vinol. and procured a r for me. It built up my strength p rapidly, and after taking three bottles F I am able to do most of my work, and 8 I can walk a quarter of a mile easily. S aged or weak person who re- I quires strength should try Vinol. I am 7 delighted with what it has done for v me." y As a body builder and strength erea- V tor for old people, delicate children, V weak, run-down persons, and after w sickness, Vinol is unexcelled. If it w to give satisfaction we will re- ~ turn your money.
