Then, having read a telegram from
Counsel McGrath announcing the victory
for the County Road in the Supreme
Court, the Board adopted a resolution
thanking Mr.. McGrath.
Then Clerk Boyd read a communication
from Register Fielder, claiming that he
did not need to attach an affidavit to his
acquisitions, and having attached a requi-
sition for a desk, some envelopes, some
blue pencils, etc.
This referred to the rumpus between
the Register and the Board a short time
ago, when he refused to swear that he
needed some supplies for which he signed
a requisition.
The Hudson County Staats-Zeitung
wanted to be an official paper, and the
matter was referred to Griffin, Smith and
Tierney.
Right on top of this came a lot of
claims. Among these vas n of Register
Fielder for indexing. 1t amounted to be-
tween seven and eight hundred dollars,
and there was an affidavit attached, say
ing that the work had been done.
A communication was received from
| Director Steger saying to the Freeholders
that the wardens could not be held re-
sponsible for anything unless they have
some authority, and that the committees
n individual members ought not to be
allowed to interfere with the wardens.
He also said that it was outrageous that
the great amount of supplies exceeding
the amount needed was received, and told
the Board that he would see that the ex-
| cess went back.
Mr.. Nelson then begged the combine"
to look into several of the abuses, notably
the matter of tea, the contract having
called for s~eventy-five chests and the con-
tractor having supplied $50 chests.
He said that he, of course, not being a
member of the combine" had very little
to say In the actions of the Board, but he
wanted to have the members of the com
bine" try to recover their lost regulations.
Mr.. Tierney then moved to send back
all supplies in excess of the needs, and the
Board passed the motion.
n Superintendent cannon reported that
the arches in the Hall of Records We're
being made four inches instead of eight
inches, as required by the specifications;
and that the Specifications were otherwise
departed from. This was referred to the
Committee on Public Buildings.
James Waddicks was then transferred
to be an additional tender at the Hacken-
sack free bridge, so that he and Warden
Grimes will not be able to squabble any
more.
A resolution was adopted referring all
bills for claims against the county to the
Committee on Finance, with instructions
to report at the next meeting.

in their extreme opinions. But they
recognize that we respect their hon
esty and purity of motive, and that
we would not misrepresent them on
any consideration.
In our judgment, the Prohibition
party represents a good idea, carried
much too far. But we believe that it
has done and may in the future do
much good, as a force to create whole
some discussion, and as a menace to
wicked politicians.
We are much complimented by the
kindness of the committeeman, and
we hope in the future to continue to
enjoy the goodwill of themselves and
their followers.

Nursery Hygiene.


The room selected for a day nursery
should have a southwest exposure.
The third floer of O house, especially
if there be an attic above it, is prefer
able to the two lower floors. 1t is
drier, more easily heated, less noisy,
and less cut off from sunlight. The
night nursery should, if possible, COM
municate with the day nursery,
though this is less important than
proximity to the parents sleeping
room. Neither apartment should adj
join a bath room having sewer con-
nections. A lofty ceiling is far from
desirable in a nursery; on the other
hand, the room ought not to be less
than eight feet high. 1t is better to
use a candle or night light than to
burn gas in a rAght nursery. The
room should not be carpeted, and the
walls should be painted with a view to
being washed and thoroughly disin-
fected in case of the occurrence of con
tagious disease. 1t is essential to have
a separate bed for the nurse and one
for each child.

If any one in this State doubted the
falsity of Republican reform pretences,
he mnst have had the scales rudely
torn from his eyes by the unceremoni-
ous removal Of Postmaster Kelly to
make room for a republican politician.

MI. Dickinson; but we have no words
too strong to use in denunciation OF
the ~disgraceful course of the Federal
Administration towards deserving

This paper Is Democratic IN principles

local questions.
We Are Not Afraid of Fisk.

The Trenton Times says
The democratic papers that used to put in a
great deal of time putting General Fisk are now
jumping on him with both feet.
He has made them angry by declaring that he
viii no longer help to place democrats in power
In this State.
Not at all. We have never pulled
General Fisk; neither do we propose
to abuse him now.
The General is a gentleman of high
principle and irreproachable personal
character. The fact that he is a bad
politician is, as times go, rather
honorable to him than otherwise. He
has not made us n bit mad in the
world. He has put us, and all good
democrats upon the alert. His early
announcement of his political position
has made plain the dangers that
threaten us in the next campaign.
To be forewarned is to be forearmed,
and our republican foes will find that
when the time comes we shall so array
ourselves for the combat that "the
churches, the Sunday schools, and the
temperance societies" will not be
arrayed against us.
