INCORPORATION Law. - The bill to
vhich reference has been made several
times in the APPEAL on town government
introduced by our Senator Lockwood,
vas passed by the Senate day before yes
kerday and we presume will be passed by
the Assembly also; and thereby become
q law. The bill provides for the levying
o; o tax not to exceed one per cent. in
the assessed value of real and personal
Some We presume will groan
under this pressure. but the advantages
derived from it will be at least an equiva
lent, as will be seen rs the more import
ant provisions of the bill are noticed.
The County Commissioners are empow-
cred to lay ous, extend and alter the
streets and alleys in said town or city,
and provide for the grading, draining
cleaning, widening, lighting or other
wise improving the same, also to pro-
vide for the construction, repair and
preservation of sidewalks, bridges,
drains. and sewers, for the pre-
vention and removal of obstruc-
lions FROM the streets and sidewalks
of said town or city; provided, that said
Board may in its discretion assess the
cost of improving any street or building,
or repairing sidewalk, to the owner or
owners of the property in front Of which
said street or sidewalk, orproposed side
walk, may be; and may make such cost
of improvement, repairs or building u
lien UP N such property" Under this
provision come, we take for gfanted, the
disappearance Of our numerous stink
pools and the putting of Il plank over
that hole in the bridge near Edgcomb's
stable where little toddling child could
tumble in and be drowned or otherwise
killed with such charming ease. A hole
four feet by twelve inches Of more than
two months standing! The thought OF
the disappearance of these nuisances
and dead falls IS refreshing. AS in the
we'll ordered towns of other States those
institutions, tippling houses, gaming
holes, rafiles, ETC., which swallow up
hard-earned pieces without return, ex-
cept in the form of brawls and orgies,
are made to pay for the preservation of
order and their own conduct. All dogs
are to be taxed an annual tax, and those
dogs on which no tax is not paid are to
be "exterminated." just think of the
money that will come into the easury
from the waddling ''purps" which in
fest Carson City. And of the thinning
out of our row over-swollen multitude
of mongref and rseless CANNES NJ
who have dogs that are worth the hay
ing. will be willing to pay for them:
''Hoodlums" going around drunk and
offending the sense of decency at every
public resort are to be housed until they
get sober and then put to work cleaning
up the streets The following provision
