CALLED DOWN THE COO GOO.
Mr.. Rome1I Protests Against Isyrpes
to the street and Water Board.


Y William H. Romell, representing
Good Government Club, appeared before
the Street and Water Commissioners this
morning to protest against Contractor
yHenry Byrne continuing the improve
ment of Virginia avenue. Commissioner
Kaiser tackled Mr. Romen without
gloves, and soon brought to the surface
the fact that he was not a property
owner and not liable to assessment for
the Improvement.
Mr.. Kaiser called attention to the fact
that on Friday last the Improvement
was inspected and everything was found
to be in excellent shape. He found one
or two instances in the whole improve
ment where fault might be consistently
found with three or four blocks which
were not of the required size on the sur,
face Otherwise everything was as 1t
should be.
This whole thing strikes me as being
child's play" interrupted President
Brown. you are not a property owner,
and not liable to assessment, still you
are here asking for delay from week to
week. AS / understand Mr.. Roome was
to arrange with the contractor what was
to be done Contractor Byrne promised
to do everything that was asked of him,
and feel sure that Mr. Roome, the rep
resentatives of the property owners La
BILE to assessment directed him to pro-
ceed with the work. That being fair, I
think it is unjust to stop this work. 1t
is unfair to the contractor and unfair
to the interested property owners. The
work will be completed tomorrow night.
and I see no reason for stopping it.
II only appear in the interests of Good
Government said Mr.. Romell. 'sand 1

We will be glad to have you do it." said
Commissioner Kaiser. 81 will look after
public improvements, too. and will see
that they are properly made and not de-
layed. The whole trouble is that we are
having work done cheaply. The people
won't pay for dear work, and it is well
to bear in mind that it is an utter i'm
possibility to get good blocks anywhere
in Hudson county. They are not quarried
here. If we go outside for them, work
will cost twice as much, and I know peo-
pie don't want that

3. The banks are not bound to pay

Therefore, under free coinage at 16 to

lars in gold, go on the market and buy
silver enough to coin into two thousand
dollars, bring the silver dollars to the

thus saving just about half the total

such gentlemen as Col. Graves, Mr..

was demonstrated during the commit

cases where imposition was practiced
were very few indeed. N Kronen-

people of the fire section are pretty
comfortably housed. They are now in
a position to go ahead and help them
selves. The people of the state have
done their full duty. The position of
