"SyntaX" has few practical obser-
vations on the question of roads and
bridges, and we are glad to see that this
important subject is beginning to attract
share of the attention it deserves.
We have already devoted considerable
space, in endeavoring to impress upon
our readers the necessity of giving this
matter the serious consideration to
which it is entitled, and now that the
question of ''where the money is to
come from is broached, we win say
where, in our opinion, portion Of it
should be found.
The residents of this village pay into
the County Treasury each year sum
equal to one sixth of the whole amount
or taxes collected. A portion of this
tax is converted into a road and bridge
fund, and as this money is expended il
various parts Of the county, and for the
benefit of the tax payers, the residents
of this village are surely entitled to de-
termine how and where their portion
of the amount shall be used. Their
again we must, as our individual inter
estS are at stake, act literally, each citi
zen should give some sum toward a gen
eral fund, and there is no doubt buI
that if a few of our leading citizens tool
hold of this matter. and a thorough
canvas, as suggested, is made, but that
a large amountcould be collected. W.
must protect ourselves and our inter
ests, and to do so immediate steps must
be taken.

1t has always been the experience in
towns where the headquarters of con-
struction company are established that
a rough and lawless element usually
congregate. Indeed the early history
of this village teaches US what we may
expect during the coming season, and,
although we are now better prepared
to deal with this class, yet unless we
commence now and control, there will
be more or less trouble after time.
The authorities should make up there
minds to govern, and if they have, in
order to rule, to carry a high hand,
they must do so, and see that the laws
are vigorously enforced, and that all
offenders are punished. 1t will save
trouble, and prevent rowdyism and vi,
olence, if proper commencement is
made, let it be distinctly understood
that no lawlessness or disorder will be
tolerated, and see that no impartiality
is shown. Serious trouble may be
prevented by commencing now, and i
any party or parties show any disposi
tion to act contrary to the ordinance
or statutes, it makes no difference who
or what they are, the authorities shoull
promptly interfere and give them t.
understand, in terms not to be mis-
construed, that no such act or acts will
be tolerated.

We would say in reply to CT" that
the Council, doubtless, will see that
the ordinances are enforced. 1t is
sometimes good policy to give little
time, but as the ordinance was pub.
lished last week, people who have not
seen fit to act on it, will probably re-
ceive notification to promptly comply
with the ordinance. As to the block.
aiding of the public streets, we think il
is high time the officers of the railroad
company were asked to instruct their
employees to be more prompt and care.
.ful in this regard, as it is a serious an.
noyance to have crossings blockaded,
and while it may sometimes be neces.
sary when trains are switching or pass
ing, yet as near as we can learn, the
conductors are to blame. A commu.
nication from the Council, we think

MIR. EDITOR

MR. EDITOR:
As consider our county paper-which
is very ably conducted, and very highly
appreciated-the proper medium for an ex-
change of views on the different sub tects
that equally interest the body polite,
take the liberty of scratching you few
lines VA what consider to be u very I'M
portant subject to the citizens of Morris,
and one which you have already agitated
somewhat in the TRIBUNE, viz: the roads.
Men with any business capacity, can't
avoid seeing what dangerous rivals are
springing up all around US, to compete for
the trade that has heretofore belonged to
US, and which We must still hold if we ex
pect to retain the superiority we have thus
far held, in the northwestern part of the
State.
TO effect this, bridges must be built at
different points on the Pommc de Terre,
and roads must be improved to all points
of the compass. The trst question this oc.
casions is, where is the money to come
from to do all this? In answer to this
question, would say: we have Il Board of
Trade which is willing to work. They are
of the right metal, and must be sustained
by the citizens. We have the most enter
prism g merchants, and the finest stores of
merchandise in this upper country. These
merchants will no doubt contribute libe-
rally for the purpose, but all should not be
left TO the merchants to do. Every hotel
keeper, every mechanic, every working
man and woman of every grade within the
incorporated limits of the village, is equal
ly interested in the prosperity of the village
| hope the Committee of the Board of
Trade will make personal appeals to every
inhabitant of the town, whether property
owners, house holders, or boarders, for
contributions, or else resign and make
room for others who will work. l have nc
doubt the county people will cooperate
with the village, in what equally interest all
alike
wish could infusc portion of the
zeal into the people, on this very import
ant subject, that seizes them on election
day, when in reality only few candidates
are benefited. SYNTAx.

EDITOR TRIBUNE:
AS Editors are supposed to know every
thing, l wish to ask and have answered
through your most valuable paper. a few
questions:
1st.-Is it the Marshars business to see
that the Village Ordinances recently passed,
are enforced? If so, When will those stub
toe foot-scrapers be matched out?
2d.--How long must one endure the
blockading of Fifth, Sixth and Seventh
streets, with the freight trains and freight
cars? There seems to be especial pains
taken to run cars across the cross walks
and leave them over Sabbath, SO. that all
who wish to attend church can aoade out
in the mud to get around them. On Satur-
day last, one train blockaded the three
streets mentioned, from ten minutes to two
till twenty minutes after two, 80 minutes
by the ticker. How long shall We endure
this nuisance? Will it not be we'll to have
all the laws of the city enforced?
