Orange ' has the "biggest little
thing" of any city in the state, re
gardless of population. This "big
little thing" is the Orange Land &
Trust company, promoted by
'Charles D. 'Dickensheets , of Beau-
hio'nt and A. M. H'. Stark of Orange.
The capital stock of this company
is only $100,000, with a surplus of a
like amount. On its face it has the
appearance of being a very modest
little trust company, ~m this day . of
big financial projects, and yet those
backing the Orange Land &Trüát
company haye an individual respon-
sibility amounting in the aggregate
to $67,000,000. For instance, there
is Colonel 'W. Stark, who«e indi-
vidual wealth" is estimated at $15,-
000,000; Mrs. H. J. Lutcher, who is
worth all of $25,000,000; Dr. E. W
Brown, w«rth $15,000,000; A Gilmer
estate, $6,000,000; j. Dibert, $5,000,-
000, and L. Miller, $1,000,000. The
little -trust company with its capital
of $100,000 and surplus of $100,000,
is not so modest as it appears on its
face, and it is doubtful if then; is a
financial institution in the. South or
West that'will b$ able to float so
large a loan as' the Orange Land &
Trust company; which will hand!*'
the business of those, whose names
are given above.—State Topics.

Once Rome was a republic. Then
its citizens began to put the burden
of jts affairs oh a few -men. These
men did the work and reaped the
profits. After that, Rome was a des-
potism. Listen to th«f law: "Hj
who plants shall reap."
As men of Orange are you doing
your full duty towards Orange, and
are you reaping the fullest benefit's
thereby ? There is in Orange a Com-,
mercial vlub holding.out to every
man, to every young man, and to
every woman of Orange, opportuni-
tiei for work. The way to do your
fullest duty to Orange is through this
organization. It is the only avenue
through and by which we may have
unanimous and concerted action;
The Orange Commercial Club in
the conduct of its daily affairs,
through its routine work, through
its efforts to build up, lays a won-
derful lesponsibilky at the door of
every citizen of Orange. A Respon-
sibility that cannot be phaken off or
dodged. A responsibility that must
be met and looked squarely in.the
face by every living man and woman
4}^< Orange.
Tonight is the regular meetingof
all the members of the Orange Com-
merical Club, and the Young Men's
Committee of the Orange Commer-
cial Club. If you have a thought
do not let it vanish from your mem-
ory, but put it to work in and
through the Orange Qjmmergi#l
Club, the only avenue open to you.
No man can live unto himself. This
is a fundamental trtuh' and declara-
tion. Ño man, can die unto himself,
for whether we live or die we be-
long to God, and the solemn in-
junction Coming to men in letters of
fire, "Work while it is day, foij
there is no work, nor knowledge,
nor device, in the grave whither we
goeth."
These thoughts are thrown out to
the thinking men, the young men,
and to women of Orange. Elabora-
tion is easy. The finding Of the
path of duty is not difficult.
Lay aside everything that stands
between you and perfect citizenship,
and with one accord and witb one
voice, join the procession which
shall some good day carry the fame
of Orange far. and high, thus suc-
ceeding in placing, th^ banner of ac-
complishments for Orange upon
the highest possible vantage ground,
as a stimulus and an incentive to fu-
<ire generations to go still higher in
,the tines of civic development, of
commercial, industrial, educational
and moral advancement.
Come to the meeting tonight atfll
make yourself happy, through a con-
tiousness of duty well donf, and of
obligations resting upon you thor-
oughly met.

Foreign Commerce of U. S. in 1912,
The foreign commerce of the
United States made a new and re-
markable Record in ¿he fiscal year
just ended. The .total value of the
merchandise entering and leaving
the country in its trade with foreign
lands and its own island possessions
in the fiscal year 1912 waé four bil-
lion dolUrs; the value of manufac-
tnes exported was more than one
billion dollars, and- the value of non-
dutiable merchandise entering the
country Was one billion dollars. Of
this one billion dollars' worth of non-
dutiable merchandise entering the
country during the year ending June
30, 1912, about 900 million dollars'
worth was from foreign countriis
and 100 million dollars' worth from
Hawaii and Porto Rico. Of the mer-
chandise coming from foreign coun-
tries only (and not including that
from Hawaii and Porto Rico) 53.5
per cent entered free of duty,
against 44.3 per cent during the en-
tire period of the Dingley llw, 48.8
per cent under the Wilson Jaw, stnd
53 per cent under the McKinley law
when the admission of sugar free of
duty made-the per centage of duty-
free imports unusually large, but not
so high as that of the year just erd-
ed. In fact, the value of duty f<-ee
merchandise entering from foreign
countries in 1912 not only exceeds
by far that of any earlier year, but
also forms a larger share of the to-
tale imports than in any previous
years except 1892 and 1894, the op-
ening and closing years of the oper-
ations of the McKinley law, when
