The taxes are in the same classes as other property that is assessed and taxed locally, and they should be assessed and collected . in the syie way. But. there is an object to be served by State assessment. By that plan the railroad taxes are lumped together and appear a very ' large sum in the aggregate. People are impressed by the amount without ' stopping to think that it represents nothing more than the assessments on numerous tracts of land, buildings, etc, that if assessed separately would be lost sight of in the general property assessment. The impression is given t at the railroads are undei special and extra tax. which is false And why the object? Simply !o prevent any additions! taxation, just -or unjust, to; protect large interests from any new • State tax. - Newark Star. ft ft » Buy Christmas goods at home.

So extensive havei been the improvements begun last win- 1 ter that the As.-e-gor'g figures show ' ; an increase of nearly seventy-five per j i cent over the assessed valuation of | f Stone Harbor forthe year of 1907. I It is apparent that a direct road j from Cape May Court House to Stone J IT Harbor will do more in the way of i q 1 opening a market and increasing land I values at both ends of the road, than , "has -been accomplished by any other road of equal extent in Middle Town- j ' ship. It is evident that a road built as a private enterprise and maintained — by the toll system throws the burden I of its support on those who get the I least benefit from it, whereas being I I met hy a tar on property values, 1 > should the road actually increase the values at the Stone Harbor end to a greater extent than it would at the Court House end. the simple consequence would be thatjthe StoneJHsrbor ' tax paver would pay for the toad in that same proportiou. The amount involved is aftei all io very trifling that a part from increasing values of farm lands and building up of closer and better markets, the cost should cheerfully be met ra-rely ' for the short road to the ocean which | it would give. !

The solid steel framework of these cars, designs to resist shock and minimize the dangers of collision, is further strengthened by the steel sheathing enclosing the body of the car. In fact everything about the coach is steel, save the window frames, the cushions of the seats, and the flooring. Sueh little woodwork as enters into-the make-up of the coach the plush with which the car seats are covered and the hair with which they are stuffed is treated to a ftreproofing process whilst the floors are cement, the rendering the coach at once practically indestructible and thoroughly fireproof. It is built like a battleship. ' The new coach is longer than the standard car generally in use <jn the railroads of this country, and has a comfortable seating capacity of sixty to ninety people according to style of the coach. The unusual weight <>f the coaches give to them a solidity that greatly increases the comfort of the passenger. The seats arc adjusted to a more convenient space and angle, the coaches arc all lighted with electricity and amply ventilated in winter as well as summer by new and thoroughly tested methods The interior finish of the coach is plain though pleasing to the eye. The absence of ornamentation enhances the idea of strength and at the same time assures absolute cleanliness and thorough sanitation. Steel cars are now in use on the principal trains between New York, Philadelphia, Washington, and on the Main Line between Philadelphia and Pittsburg. The number of cars is constantly being increased as the finished product comes from the shops. The Pennsylvania Railroad's equipment is recognized as the Standard of America.
