George F. Woolston was awarded the con
tract for lighting the streets. The OBJ
jectors-one of whom bid for the work
the other a taxpayer-claimed that tht
township committee was not authorized
to contract for lighting the streets. and i
so authorized, had no power to contract
for five years.
The Supreme Court rendered lengthy
decision, the syllabus of which was that
under the act of May %, 1894, township
committees in this state have conferred
upon them general power over the matter
of lighting streets and public places in
said townships, and under this act town
ship committees are authorized to enter
into contracts to light the streets for a
term not exceeding five years, and to
cause the annual expense thereof to be
raised by taxation.
Section of the syllabus says: In the
exercise of the power of lighting the
streets of the township under these laws,
the township committee is not bound to
award contract, where the street light
ing is done by contract, to the lowest
bidder for such work, but they are bound
to exercise the power in bona fide man
ner, and with reasonable discretion and
Judgment for the benefit of the township,
basing such reasonable discretion upon a
rational basis of fact In its support"
1t will be seen by this opinion that the
committee has the power to con-
tract, to raise the money for it's compile
ton by taxation, and is not bound to give
the work to the lowest bidder. This set
ties beyond dispute the points raised
against the Northampton township com
mittee, and the contract with the Mount
Holly Electric Light Company will stand.

careful investigation did not hesitate to
solicit Treasurer Swain. after his cleo
ton last year, to continue Mr.. Hume
as his clerk, feeling that his action in
that campaign would compare very ia
vorably when placed beside that of some
who we're traducing him and loudly
clamoring for his removal.
Mr.. Hume on Friday rendered his res
ignation of the position in the State Treas
urer's Office, to take effect at the pleasure
of his chief. 1t is to be hoped that this
action will satisfy the gang of sc-called
Republicans that has SO persistently
bounded Mr.. Hume for the past FIVE
years, and that they will feel unlimited
pleasure in having furnished the Demo-
cratic party with ammunition it vainly
sought elsewhere.
