PUT SOCIAL 1 TO
PRACTICAL TEST
Brisbane Buys Deserted New
Jersey Village to Carry
Out His Idea.
MAY PLAY POLITICAL PART
Hearst's Editor Will Colonize, Esist
Slders at Allaire and Become Be
nevolent Landlord " Makes
Jersey Politicians Shudder.
NEW YORK, March 18. (Special.) Ar
thur Brisbane, who writes the red-hot so
cialist editorials on the New York Even
ing' Journal, has bought an entire deserted
village in New Jersey and has thereby
created much excitement. The question
that is agitating his followers is:
"Will Brisbane be a plutocratic land
lord or an all-wool philanthropist?"
The editor is now the owner ol Allaire,
N. J., and all he paid for it was J125.000
cash. It is understood that the Allaire
Water Supply & Land Company, the for
mer owner, believes it has got the best
of the bargain.
Allaire Is In Monmouth County, about
six miles from Lakewood and 0 from
Asbury Park. It Is on the Freehold and
Janesburg division of the Pennsylvania
Railroad, but trains never stop there, be
cause the town has not even a lonesome
inhabitant
By his purchase Mr. Brisbane becomes
the proud possessor of 600 acres of land;
a deserted Iron foundry, six buildings
where stoves were formerly manufactured,
and the office building: 63 cottages, more
or leas dismantled and weather-beaten;
a railroad station without any Interior
fixings or windows; one church building.
Once Thriving Iron Town.
Many years ago Allaire was one of the
most flourishing small towns of North
Jersey. John Allaire built great iron
works there, and the place was named
after him. It was really a pioneer es
tablishment, for the iron work used in
the construction of Robert Fulton's steam
boat waa made there and steamboat
screws were tirst manufactured at Allaire.
John Roach, tho 'shipbuilder, learned his
trade under the veteran ironmaster, and
for many years lived near the works.
It is an interesting coincidence that the
"company store." which Brisbane has
editorially denounced in manv editorials,
had its first trial at the village tho writer
now. owns.
The store was so prosperous that for a
time tho Howell Iron Company, as the
corporation operating the works was
known, issued Its own currency to the
600 or more workmen it employed
But the remoteness of Allaire from any
of the mining centers led to its downfall
Its ore had to tie shipped from Pennsyl
vania, and soon after Mr. Allaire's death
the company found Itself unable to com
pete with the Pennsylvania iron manu
facturers, who were then Just getting a.
real start In business. Finally the works
rwevC,Fed' "nd " 0t tne hands ved
?" , ars the face has been dead
to the world, but with the advent of Bris
bane a new era of prosperity is prom-
Brisbane Social Scheme.
Tt Is known that the editor has taken
Thf" If or,intTt 1" Halicon hall,
the Socialist colony founded by Upton
flZ, .1 'VN:W JersPJ"' but he believed
that the S nclalr experiment Is doomed
to be a failure, U Halicon hall, every
th ng Is enjoyed In common by the
colonists. While believing in many of
the principles of Socialism. Mr. Brisbane
Is not convinced that ail men should be
placed on the same level, and he has not
the slightest Intention of whacking up
his salary (which by the way was re
cently raised to $72,000 a year) with any
2 a day hodcarrier.
When asked concerning his plan re
garding Allaire. Mr. Brisbane simply
remarked that he intended to experiment
In model farming, but declined to give
any further particulars. One of his
friends said, howeved:
"At the proper time you wltl see a
practical demonstration of practical So
cialism. It is Brisbane's intention to
divide his place up Into small truck farms
and secure settlers from the crowded East
Side. I understand that Nathan Strans is
interested in the project. He and Bris
bane are great friends, and have been
associated in a number of enterprises.
The Intention Is I believe, to give each
settler 20 to 30 acre., of land, and see
what he can do with it. in the way of
raising vegetables for the New York
market. If he makes money, he is to be
charged rent. This tax is not to be a
fixed charge, but a certain percentage on
what he makes over living expenses,
fhould the farmer fail, despite his best
endeavors, not only will rental be waived,
but he may receive some money. loafers,
however, are to be promptly thrown out.
May Bny OMicr Villages.
"Brisbane thinks the scheme is not only
a good financial investment, but that It
will be a boon to many persons who are
now cooped up on the East Side, doomed
to perpetual poverty. Should the matter
prove to be as big a success as It seems
on paper. I would not be surprised if he
purchased some more 'deserted villages
Jersey is full of them, and they can be
secured for a song; even a topical song."
Summer residents along the jersey coast
bitterly oppose the Brisbane Idea, for
Allaire, because of its ruin and desolation,
has been one of the show places of Mon
mouth County. Stage lines have done a
prosperous business by running there
from Asbury Park and the near-by resorts,
and sightseeing automobiles have been
utilized to similar purpose. With the ad
vent of the editorial landlord, of course
all the plcturesqueness will cease and
everything will be run on a strictly busi
ness basis.
There have been rumors afloat that.
Brisbane Intended to drop Journalism and
lake up the life of a country gentlemen,
but this is scoffed at by all his friends.
He is simply going to be a philanthropist
of the absentee landlord variety, and.
undoubtedly, will have a lot of fun out
of It.
Alarm Anmns Politicians.
Politicians, however, are watching Mr.
Brisbane's experiment with grave con
cern. Monmouth has been a Republican
County for a good many years, but by a
comparatively narrow margin. For ex
ample, in 1904, when Rossevelt swept the
state, he only carried Monmouth by 10.RSS
votes to 9031' for Parker. Last year the
Republican plurality was only 110, and
nominally It is less than 300.
With the advent of the Allaire enthu
siasts, it Is evident that Brisbane would
hold the balance of power, which would
mean he would be in a position to dictate
the State Senator and two members of
Assembly. And as the entire New Jer
sey Legislature comprises only 21 Senators
and 60 Assemblymen, these three votes
might prove of value some day.
H. L. Austin, one of the Democratic
headers In Jersey City and an ex-As-'
semblyman. said today:
"If Brisbane gets this colony going
right, he la liable to be a factor in poli
tics. He will undoubtedly direct his ten
ants how to vote, 4ust as old Dr. Dowie
did In Zlon City.
Should he be anxious to cut Ice In poll
tics. I don't know anybody who would
stop him. We are rather shy on leaders
just now, and one with money and Ideas
would be welcomed.
It wouldn't surprise me one' bit if
Brisbane's socialist colony should be the
means of sending him to the United
States Senate some day. He would cer
tainly make things hum at Washington,
and I, for one. would like to see him go
there.
Trying to Find a Xante.
And in the meantime there is naturally
great excitement on the East Side. All
agree that the name of Allaire must be
changed, but they cannot decide on the
substitute. At present Brisbania Is in the
lead, with League Junction, Anti-Monopoly
and Extra.'! fighting for the place.
ATTRACT CASH TO STATE
Ingciiius Nebraska Scheme to Ex
empt Bank Deposits From Taxes.
OMAHA, Neb., March 18. (Special.) If
you are a rich man with a big lot of
ready cash in the bank, on which you
do not wish to pay taxes, go to Nebraska.
A bill is now before the Nebraska Legis
lature with every prospect of becoming
a law, the provisions of which will enable
any man who has a large amount of
ready cash to avoid paying taxes on
money which he may have deposited In
banks.
Of course any law would be uncon
stitutional if enacted with a provision for
the. cancellation of taxes or containing
any provisions for the giving away of
state funds, but there la nothing to pre
vent the state from paying salaries for
services performed, and that is the
precise intent of the proposed law. New
Jersey is said to be the home of trusts,
Texas has its bountiful exemption laws
and South Dakota bids for the divorce
immigration, but Nebraska Is going them
all one better by bidding for the rich
men with the ready cash.
The bill, which in itself is simple
enough, was introduced at the request of
John O. Yeiser, a prominent Omaha at
torney, and has advanced to Its last
reading. It has for its title "An act to
create a Board of Immigration, Commerce
and Industry, to be composed of the Gov
ernor, State Treasurer and Attorney-General,
and defining its duties; providing for
the appointment- of advisory secretaries,
defining their qualifications and duties
and providing for their compensation."
The Idea and spirit of the bill Is simply
this: That a man may come to Nebraska,
declare himself at once to be a citizen
of the state and ask for an appointment
on the advisory board. Upon being ap
pointed, he shall be qualified to draw as
compensation for his services an amount
equal to the sum paid by him as taxes on
his bank deposits, as compensation for his
services upon the advisory board. These
services will be principally confined to
recommending his wealthy friends to
pursue the course which he himself is
following.
The framing of such a law which would
be constitutional was not easy. This bill,
however, covers the ground, because it
does not provide for the cancellation of
taxes nor the giving away of state funds.
Legal talent has been employed by the
commercial bodies of the state to define
the limitations of such a law in order
that it may stand a test In the courts.
While the movement originated in
Omaha, the law will work equally to the
advantage of the small towns. The idea
of the promoters is that' it will give the
ready-cash resident of outside states an
opportunity to spend a pleasant vacation
In Nebraska and thus save paying taxes
on his cash, and incidentally permit him
to invest in this state.
The belief Is also indulged in that the
recent enactment of a 2-cent passenger
fare law in Nebraska will work to advan
tage in connection with the proposed
"ready-cash" law, and make Nebraska
the home of many men who wish to avoid
paying taxes on their Idle money and
retain a clear conscience.
X-RAYS ON THE GOVERNOR
New Mexico Legislators Accuse
.Hagcrman of Land Fraud.
SANTA FE, N. M., March IB. The
fight in the lower house of the Leg
islature culminated this afternoon in
the adoption by a vote of 13 to 10 of
a report to investigate the Governor's
alleged connection with the disposal of
7003 acres, of timber by the territory
to the Pennsylvania Development Com
pany, of Pittsburg. The report, which
is bitter in its arraignment of Gov
ernor Hagerman, finds that he signed
23 deeds conveying part of this timber
land and afllxed the seal of the Com
missioner of . Public Lands thereto
without warrant of law, concluding
that-the disposition of the land in the
manner mentioned was a fraud upon
the people of the territory and its in
stitutions. The report recommends that the
District Attorney bring action to set
aside the' deeds on the ground of Ille
gality and fraud in their procurement,
not only in the case of the Pennsyl
vania Development Company, but also
those deeds mado by the previous ad
ministration, which involve the title
to almost 100,000 acres of the best ter
ritory timber land.
During the adoption of the report a
personal encounter took place on the
floor of the House between the leaders
of the opposing factions. Representatives-
H. B. Bolt and A. J. Hudspelp,
but they were quickly separated.
The Governor did not obey the sum
mons to testify before the. legislative
committee.

Danger Reno Electric Plant
Damaged Sacramento River
Causes Flood in Lowlands.
RENO, Nev., March 18. The Truckee
River reached the highest point In the 36
years of which records have been kept to
day at 10 o'clock. . Two hundred feet of
railway track is washed away below
Verde and another gap exists at the
Chalk Bluff, east of town. All trains
east and west are being held owing to the
floods having washed under the abut
ments of the Verde bridge, rendering It
unsafe.
Every bridge on the Carson River Is
washed out and the famous Winters
ranch on the shores of Washoe Lake is
all under water. There is where El
Rio Rey, Yo Tambien, Emperor of Nor
folk and other great horses were bred.
At Gardnerville Assemblyman Nuss
man arrived from Carson City just in
time to save his family. No lives have
been lost, but there have been many
narrow escapes. Fred Lerabuss, in trying
to open the gates of the Reno Milling
Company's great ditch, was sucked under
the gates, but came out in the race alive
and was saved.
John Kelly, marooned on an island in
the river, was thrown a rope, but refused
to be rescued.
The old town of Glendale, six miles
east of Reno, is completely under water.
All the population got away in safety
except one man, who would not leave and
Is now camped in an upper story of his
house.
The new ulectric light bridge over the
Truckee ani the bridge at Mayberry are
holding, but the old electric light bridge
and the Lawton bridge went early in the
morning. The Lawton bridge floated down
the Truckee River intact apparently, and
it reached the Mayberry bridge, when It
was broken into fragments. The bridge
at Virginia street. Reno, is intact. Three
blocks of the noted Riverside Drive at
Reno are under water. The basements of
the Masonic Temple and many private
houses along the river are flooded, but
the Riverside Hotel is safe. Four cabins
on the river bank were washed away.
There was no electric light or power all
day. the powerhouse having been greatly
damaged.
The damage in Reno will be covered by
about J20.000 and below Reno about $50,000,
while the railroad will be put to an ex
pense of about J5000 to restore to safety
the' Verde bridge.
At 8 o'clock: the river began to fall and
it is thought all danger is over.
SACRAMENTO RIVER BOOMING.
Great Yolo Levee Floods Town and
Threatens Bridges.
SACRAMENTO, Cart., March 18. The
Sacramento River at this city is booming
tonight and In the past 12 hours has risen
almost three feet. The flood waters from
the American, Feather and Yuba' Rivers
are pouring into the Sacramento and
while the flood crest has not reached this
city, all indications are that a new high
water record will be made.
The overflow pouring through the break
in the Yolo levee at the Krlpp ranch
across from this city has backed up into
the south and west end of Washington
and all the residence portion of- the town
is from two or three feet under water
with a constant rise. Several hundred
acres' of farm and fruit land are covered,
but the damage is slight.
The American River at the Sacramento
County bridge above this city has over
topped the high-water mark and the
bridges of the Northern Electric and
Western Pacific Railway Companies are
in danger of being carried away by the
flood. The bridges were weakened early
yesterday by the floods and, with the
large amount of driftwood and swift cur
rent pounding on their piers, fears are
entertained that the structures may go
out before morning. The Fair Oaks
bridge on the American River, 17 miles
above this city. Is reported In danger, the
water being within a few inches of the
floor. At Folsom the river registered 18
feet, the highest ever known.
No apprehension Is felt here, as the
levees can withstand ten feet more water
than is now flowing in the river. The
gauge is at the 24-foot mark, three feet
and a half less than during the high
water last January. Rain continues in
all parts of the valley.
Cache Creek, near Woodland, Is near
the 23-foot mark and Is rapidly rising.
All afternoon it rose at the rate of four
inches an hour and, if it gets to the
2T-foot mark before morning, the stream
will overflow Its banks and flood thous
ands of acres of fruit and farming land.
At the McPhee ranch, above Woodland,
the water is expected to break out at
any minute and all the settlers In the
lower part of the valley have taken
refuge in the higher lands.
Many farmers are patrolling the banks
of the stream - tonight, . watching every
Inch of the banks for miles. There Is
great danger of the stream overflowing

Scrofula is not a disease that is acquired, tinder ordinary circumstances.
It is a deep-seated family blood taint, handed down from generation to gen
eration, blighting: the lives and capping the vital forces of innocent persons
who have inherited this legacy of disease. Parents who are blood relations
or who have a consumptive tendency, or blood disease of any character, are
sure to transmit it to their offspring, and it usually takes the form of Scrofula.
Swollen glands, brittle bones, weak eyes, sores and eruptions on the body,
Catarrh, and often deformities with hip disease, are the principal ways in
which the trouble is manifested. In some cases the blood is so filled with
scrofulous germs and poisons that from birth the sufferer is an object of pity
because of suffering and a total lack of health, while ia other instances
favorable surroundings and prudent living hold the disease in check until
later in life. A deep-seated blood disease like Scrofula can only be reached
by the very best constitutional treatment. A remedy is required that can
renovate the entire blood supply and drive out the scrofulous and tuberculous
