NEW ROAD.

About eighteen months ago a com
mittee OF Freeh0lders ordered u new
road opened from Railroad Avenue at
j.. e. Mmphy's through MaIy Divers
land to The Cove, coming out nj sum
merrill x Bros store For some reason
known to the township committee the
road has never been opened. Now
there is talk of vacatimg the projected
road and instead opening one from
Main st. through Capt. MAYORS prop
city beginning at Robert DOle's house
aud extending straight to the Cove.
this, some think, will be more beneficial
and economical, as it will open more
property suitable Tor building purposes
and cost less by being straight aud eros
sing less meadow. This is acceptable to
the movers Of the other road if it is
assured. Those who are interests IN
the uew proposed road should take ac-
ton, il they prefer it. or If the town
ship committee think they "a save
money by yacating the road and laying
out the other, why should they not do

open the road now ordered laid unless
vacated. Let us have anything to i'm

a Man of Great Influence.

Levi p. Morton won long ago Ma
tional reputation as the head of one
of the great banking firms of the
world. Elected to the House of Rep
resentatives, he there added to his
fame and justified the high expecta-
tions of his friends by speeches on
financial questions, which showed that
he was not merely practical banker,
but understood the theory and philos-
ophy of finance in its largest sense
and in its National aspects. His name
was prominently mentioned in connec-
ton with the Vice-Presidency on the
ticket with Garfield in 1880 and he
was strongly urged for Secretary of
the Treasury in 1881. He declined the
Naval portfolio and accepted the posi-
ton of Minister to France, which he
filed most acceptably during the
Arthur Administration. He divided
with Senator Hiscock and ex-senator
Warner Miller the favor of the Repub-
Ucan caucus in the last Senatorial
election in New York State. He is a
man whose talents and tastes qualify
him eonspicuously for high public Of
fee, and there is an evident fitness in
giving this representative and leading
citizen Of New York the second place
on the Republican National ticket, the
