The Special AldermaniC Election.
The announcement that Mayor Shane
would issue a proclamation for special
election to be held on the day of the general
election for the purpose of electing council
men, has caused considerable discussion as
W bnc lePdlHN VI SuCu plUCctuluB. L.
Farnsworth, city attorney, whom asked in
reference to the matter stated that he had
not been consulted in reference to filling
the vacancies, but that his attention had
been called to the statement In The BEE.
He stated further that it was his opinion that
the vacancies could not be filled at the No
vember election; that section IO3 Of the gen.
eral election law provides that vacancies in
city and village offices shall be filed by the
mayor and council or board of trustees; that
section 105 provides that such appointments
shall continue at the next election at which
the vacancy can be filled.
Sub division 2S of section 6S Of the charter
provides that the mayor and council shall
have power by ordinance to provide for
filling such vacancies as may occur in any
elective Office, by appointment by the mayor
and council to hold until the next general
election.
The general election here referred to is the
general city election, as by section 13 of
article l6 of the constitution of the state,
officers of cities are not included in the
Offices to be filled at the general state elec-
tiOn.
The general election, as fixed by
charter shall be held on the
first. Tuesday In April annually. No au-
'thorlty is given by the charter for calling
special election for the purpose OF electing
way for filling the vacancy, no other course
can be pursued.
As it IS less than year until the next
general city election, the vacancy will have
to be filled by appointment, or the vacancy

The Hay Crop Spoiled.

The great majority of the farmers in
New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Delaware
are complaining of the loss of their hay
crop. In all these States much of the
grass had been cut before the rain began
to fall, and was thoroughly wetted before
the farmers had any chance to get at it.
In this condition it was left out to dry
and was thoroughly soaked again by the
storms which followed. Much of it turned
black and now lies rotting in the fields,
worthless for any use except possibly for
the manure pile. 1t is estimated that
thousands upon thousands of tons of hay,
which would probably average SO per ton
to the farmer, have been ruined in this
Way.

Hackensaok,s New Bank.

1t will be ten years next November
since the First National Bank of Hacken-
sack closed its doors. A year later, in
1880, John J. Berry, cashierof the Bank of
Bergen County, dropped that institution
into q hole at the bottom of which he first
sunk $3.50, 900. Since that time Hacken-
sack has had no banking facilities, its cit
liens being compelled to go to Paterson,
New York or Jersey City. This state of
affairs was the cause OF constant annoy
ance, and frequently when village mer-
chants could not cash checks great incon-
venience was experienced. While the Sc
robustness of the situation has been recog-
nized by all interested, it has been impos-
sible to induce capitalists to give the
needed relief because of the lack of conf
dence ~engendered by past disasters, q
feeling intensified by the general public
expressions of distrust.
Lately, however, there has been a
change of sentiment, the community be-
ing susceptible to the constant arguments
of the local press n a number of bust
ness men who were anxious to have a
bank established. The proposition to
open a bank was brought to a head on
Wednesday evening, when there was q
meeting at the office OF Lawyer William
M. johnson and the subject was fully dis
cussed by the several gentlemen present.
Among the more prominent names in
the company are Henry S. Little date re-
ceiver OF the Central Railroad of New
Jersey, County Clerk Taylor, Surrogate
Pell, DR.. David st. John, Nicholas Mehr-
hof, the brick manufacturer; Major S. H.
Y. Moore, William M. Johnson, NJ, f..
Clarendon, Cornelius j. Cadmus, of Dun
dee Lake; L. A. Anthony, Howard ID.
Terhune and James A. Romeyn. These
gentlemen have pledged themselves to
take all the $4,000 stock with which the
bank is to start, though they are willing
to dispose of u few shares to others if APP
piled Tor by July II.
1t is understood that the bank will be
ready for business about September 1: it
will occupy the room of the late Bank of
Bergen County, is to be organized under
the State law, and will be called stThe
Hackensack Bank" The officers have
not been determined upon, but it is be-
1ieved that William M. johnson will be
president, and Howard d. Terhune
cashier, Mr.. Terhune being now cashier
of q bank at Matawan. 1t is believed that
William Walter Phelps viii have an in
terest in the bank, which will open its
doors under very favorable auspices. ron.
sidering the difficulties that have had to
be overcome.
The gentlemen who will be most con-
spicuolis in the Board of Management
(Messrs. Pell, Taylor, johnson and
Moore) are well known to the people of
Bergen county for their conservative
business methods, and their names will
no doubt have considerable influence in
establishing the confidence requisite to
success. The project was made public in
the Hackensack local papers yesterday,
and already several applications for stock
have been voluntarily sent in.
