THE NEWS OF BAYONNE.
A Great Raft OF Business Attended to by
the Council.

A Great Raft OF Business Attended to by
the Council.
The City Council met last evening and
all the members were present, with Presi-
len Goddard in the chair.
Four bids were received tor contract No.
%, to lay water mains. G.. A. Bettman
was willing to do the work at the lowest
figure, 50 1860, with twenty-five cents per
cubic yard for rock excavation. In the
Committee of the Whole the chairman,
MI. E. Scofield, opposed granting the con-
tract to c. A. Bettman, alleging that the
actual bidder was Contractor Martin
Murray.
After some discussion the contract was
awarded to Bettman.
Columbia Hook and Ladder Company
No. 3 complained that the company's fine
new flag had been destroyed by telephone
wires on account of the short flag staff
over the building, and the company asked
that a longer pole be put up. The matter
was referred to the proper committee.
A lengthy document was read by Clerk
Hamilton, which was signed for the Bay
onne German Citizens Association by it's
president and secretary. 1t asked the
Board to abate two alleged n~uisances, one
of which is in the Fifth ward, betweenthe
property of the Standard Oil Company
and the Oxford Copper and Sulphur
Works, and the other in East Seventh
street. Heaps of garbage emitting awful
odors are the cause of the complaint.
The matter was referred to the Com
mittee on Health, Charities INT Correct
ions.
The Committee on Police and Fire
were authorized to have the engine of
Americus Engine Company repaired at a
cost not exceeding 500 at the last meet
ing of the Board. Chairman Meigs of
this committee reported that the engine
had been shipped to Clapp & Jones, of
New York, for repairs. This FIRMS eX-
pert says that it is in a much worse con-
dition han it was firft supposed to be in.
For about $3.50 it could be repaired.
The Committee ON Police and Fire were
empowered to obtain an estimate of what
it would cost to have the engine repaired
SO that it could stand a pressure of 100
pounds of steam without putting in q
new boiler.
Surveyor Smith reported with Council
man Cadmus that the new fire and police
station house on East T~wenty-second
| street, Constable Hook, was completed in
accordance with the plans and specifica-
lions, and recommended he Board to ac-
cept the building. The Duilding has cost
over IS, 200, and the Board delayed accept
ance on account of certain imperfections
of a minor character. 1t was built by
John Shilliday.
Councilman Cronin offered q resolution
to nave Il much needed fire hydrant placed
on Twenty-second street, az near to the
Hungarian flats" as possible. The pres
ent fire hydrant is over q block distant.
These flats of four stories are occupied by
yer 700 Hungarians.
Another resolution vas offered by Mr..
Cronin authorizing the purchase of gas
fixtures and office furniture for the new
truck house and police station at Con
stable Hook.

Governor Adams, of Colorado, is
a temperance advocate, but he is
not temperance crank. He is IN
favor Of high license as the best
method of dealing with the evil,
and says "Limit the field OF temp
tation, and you will reduce the
number of the fallen. To do this
| know of no other way so effective
as the power of taxation" There
are hundreds of good, honest, we'll
meaning people who wouldn't license
the selling of whisky, because they
regard such an act as a compact be-
tween the State and the evil ones.
Rather than take money for selling
liquor. and thus legaizing the busl-
ness, they would tax themselves to
pay the expense which the whisky
traffic imposes upon community
The best temperance legislation
is that which reduces the consump-
ton of liquor the most. elevates|
the tone Of the saloons, and confines|
drinking as much as possible to
those who can best afford to pay
for the intoxicants. High license
has done more in these directions
than any other system tried. High
license necessarily increases the cost
Of liquors, aud the greater the cost
the less of the article is consumed.
A large share of the evil of whisky
drinking results from depriving
needy ones of the money which the
liquor costs. The drinks which the
millionaire takes harm only him,
as a rule, while those which the
poor laborer swallows bring suffer
ing aud want and frequently crime
to dependent ones. No one will
contend that the drinking places
are so orderly and we'll kept where|
there is low license or no license att
all, as at those places where the tax
is high. In community sense,
the great inHiction of the liquor
traffic is the expense. The drunk
ards are comparatively few, out the
trouble and crime resulting from
intemperance make up large per-
ccntage of the cost which the pub
lie has to bear. Those who drink
whisky should pay the bills which
their intemperance incurs, and the
easiest and most certain way of col
Letting the money is by taking it

To begin with. the STANDARD ac-

democrats.
II will be observed. too. that. without

1T is AL RIGHT.

The ~SrhNDAHD likes the democratic

likes the man whose name stands at
the head for the office oft Governor. His
election will he one of the pleasant
compensations in politics. and that
happens none too often. To Joe"
Toole, more than tn any other man.
Montana owes statehood. The people
will take pleasure ia getting even with
him by electing him governor and do
ing il in handsome style. II is our
opinion that. for ten years To come. the
people can pay no hanidsomer com-
plimeut than the one they confer ON
the man whom they elect first governor
of the state. Mr.. Toole will grace the
office. and by his excellent servic" in
public life he has earned the compli-
ment.
Last week the democratic state con-
vention had in mind two men whom it
wanted especially to honor. These were
Mr.. Toole and Major Maginnis. The
enthusiasm attending the nomination
of Mr.. Maginnis for member of congress
