At the Council meeting Monday even

ably in favor of plan to reorganize the

financiers. is now in the shape of an or

Reform is certainly desirable. and in
formulating his plan the General con-

Councilman Roscoe
Should Have Had Support.
That Birch Lumber Yard Switch
The Council Withdrew its Per-
mission to Cross Erie street.

The Council Withdrew its Per-
mission TO Cross Erie street.
At the Council meeting last Monday
night the permission previously granted
Mr.. S. M. Birch to lay a switch across
Erie street and into his lumber yard at
the rear of the Club House was recon
sidered. and the prayer of the petition
er was refused. Councilman Roscoe
was the only member who opposed the
reconsideration. ut is a matter of re-
cord" said Mr.. Roscoe. that business
will follow all railways and waterways
He also argued that he did not see the
BUSINESS of grantinga corporation the right
to operate trolly road through our
streets every few minutes and refuse a
resident and business man the privilege
of reaching his property by switch
which probably would not be operated
oftener than twice week, and then not
at time nor in such a manner as to en-
danger life.
Citizens are constantly complaining
about the Main avenue switch and the
unloading of lumber and other materials
along our man thoroughfare, and yet
when an enterprising citizen like Mr..
Birch undertakes to do his share of re-
moving the eyesore by an effort to switch
his cars into his yard, close the gates
and unload beyond the pub1ic's gaze and
away from busy thoroughfare, these
same citizens come toward and oppose
his efforts.
Investigation by a RECORD representa-
tive shows that the opposing sentiment
is not SO muchs against the proposed
switch across Erie street IS it is against
the lumber yard. In this,
however, people will be disap-
pointed, as we are assured that the land
was purchased for the purpose it is now
used, and it will continue to be SO used.
Being unable to run his cars 0ry0ss Erie
street into his yard, Mr. Birch's next
best thing will be to have the Erie rail-
road Company lay switch on its own
land parallel with and next to Erie street,
where cars can stand and lumber be
unloaded and carted across the street
into the yard. This. we opine, will be
much more of an eyesore to the club
house people than would switch run
ming across the street to and into the
yard, which, by the waysis enclosed by
a high, we'll built fence of planed boards
which shuts out the view of the people
from without. and presents very re-
spectacle appearance.

of both sides laid before the Council
should have been supported

select the Ontario & Western Ry. They
are going for pleasure; they want to see
the most picturesque country. and stop
over at Niagara Falls. Many have been
in Sullivan County. and they desire to
see more of this album of natural beauty,
of which there are few. If any, more at
tractive pages than the mountain section
traversed by this road. The most pic

FROM VINEYARDS TO VAULTS.
Representative Men Visit and
Inspect New jerseys Wine
Industry.
Speer,s Excellent Sauterne, EBurgun-
dy. Ciaret and Port Commended by
Physicians and City OfHcfals.

Last Saturday was memorable
day in the history of the Alfred
Speer Wine Company. Scores of
New York, Brooklyn and Newark
physicians and city officials came
to Passaic in response to invita-
tions and were driven in open car
riages through the streets of the
city to the extensive vineyards
along Van Houten avenue. The
first and second carriages contain
ed representative of the local and
metropolitan press. As they moved
through the miles and miles
of vines hundreds of thousands
of ripe clusters of Oporto
an d Concord grapes were in
sight, and when the procession
of twenty-five carriages stopped
and the gentlemen alighted many
clusters of the delicious fruit were
put where they couldn't be seen.
An hour in the vineyard and the
appetites for grapes were satisfied.
The party was then driven through
the principal streets and the City
Hall Park to the warehouse and
vaults on lower Main avenue.
After an inspection of the ex-
tensive vaults on both sides of the
avenue, where are stored about ZOO
600 gallons of wine, and which
were found clean and well ven
tilated, the party was escorted
to the third floor of the warehouse,
where Mr.. Speer had prepared an
elaborate collation., literally sup
piled with all kinds of wine as a
beverage. DR. Welch was appro-
priately chosen as toastmaster.
Speeches were made by Mayors
Of Newark and Passaic, and others.
and all agreed that Speer's wines,
as beverage, as medicine, Or for
communion purposes are the best.
Mr.. Horace I. Bovine of the New
York Produce Exchange delivered
a couple of humorous pieces which
where we'll received
AS the guests retired down the
broad stairway to the buiness en-
trance past the handsomely appoin-
ted new office where Mr.. Speer's
pretty young lady assistant and
other clerks were busy with books
andpapers, each was handed pack
age of 3 bottles of choice wines as
souvenir of their 1893 visit to
the Wine Industry of New Jersey.
That New Jersey Worlds Fair
Commissioner, who said he did
not know there was a wine indus
try industry in his State should
have been with this party, but un-
fortunately he wasn't.
According to Mayor Haynes, of
Newark, the fame of Alfred Speer's
wines have reached all over our
country, and in connection with
it the name "Passaic" is known.
The gathering of the grapes has
now commenced and persons who
do not care for the wine can obtain
the fruit in its natural state at the
store in Speer's building on Main
avenue near Washington Place.
