The New Tax Law and School Funding Debate
A column from the Somerset Messenger and Newark Mercury defends New Jersey's new tax law focusing on equalized taxation and protections for ability to pay. It cautions opponents to resist repeals and supports amendments within the framework, while praising recent school funding advances and free schools in multiple townships. The Paterson Guardian notes rising support for public education and mentions a marble yard advertisement by Jaques Vanderbeek and a cue about timepieces from Mr D Bullman.

It contrasts tolerance with fanaticism, condemns incendiaries, and calls for equality before God, urging communities to elevate all and oppose oppression. A brief death notice follows for a man found on the Wacake shore in Monmouth County, with limited identifying details and a request for viewing.
