On last Thursday, the 9th inst, the
Lambertville Improvement Co. held its an
nual meeting aud election, at which the
following stockholders were elected Di-
rectors to serve for the ensuing year:
John l.. Wilson, Alex. B. Allen, Geo.
FL. Larson, James S. Studdiford, VIM.
Fisher, s. F. Martindell, VIM. B. Niece,
A. G. Gandey aud J. Hayhurst.
Immediately after the adjournment OF
the stockholders meeting, the newly
elected Directors met and organized by
elected the following officers:
Presideut-J. Hayhurst.
Secretary-Geo. Fl. Larson.
Treasurer-Wm. V. Cooley.
The Treasurer's report shows the Com
pany to be 10 good financial condition,
with balance in the treasury.
In talking over the affairs of the Com
pany, it appears that there have been nu-
merous applications for assistance, but
for various reasons, the Company have
not seen fit to enter into an arrangement
with any. Many of the applicants seem
to think that the Company should fur
nish all the capital, and run all the risks,
and foot the bill il losses occur; and, on
the other hand, If there was any profit, it
should all go into the pockets of the appli-
cants.
The Company is anxious that a way
may open for the establishment of some
manufacturing business, when they will
do all that can be reasonably asked Of
them, to maintain and support such an
establishment.

shows and Licenses.

Shows and Licenses.
We learn that the theatrical troupe per
forming here this week has only been
charged So license for the week, while the
Seymour Stratton troupe, which was here
week before last, paid SIS. Hills Com
pany was also charged SIS. We should
like to know why difference is made be-
tween these companies? 1t is fair to say
that the Chairman Of tho Show Commit
tee of Council, Mr.. Carmody, was op.
posed to any reduction.
While on this subject We might as we'll
say, that in our opinion, it is bad policy
to license shows for week. They be-
come drain on our people, and a positive
evil, If they are not so already. Two
nights are enough to license any CON-
pany, and the Council should restrict the
committee to this. To have theatrical
troupes playing for week at time, and
one company succeeding another, is to
make that which should only be relaxa-
ton and q pastime, ruling passion, and
to the young people especially. week
indulgence in such plays, tends to create q
desire for morbid mental excitement
which is anything but beneficial to mind
or morals.
Another bad result of this overriding OF
amusements is the spending of money by
people who should use lit for better pur-
poses. Three or four dollars spent for
hall shows 10 five or six weeks, is consid-
cradle drain on the purses of the working
people who make up these audiences.
The evil is SO great that our store and
shop keepers feel its effects.
We hear that Rev. Father Brady made
some remarks on this subject last Sunday
which were forceful and to the point.
