| No community nor any section has a
monopoly of experience with tramps-they
are everywhere, and each locality is sub
jected to their methods of bread getting.
Without entering into discussion of the
question of merits or dement's of the genus
tramp, the fact that his suppression in this
county is to be attempted will be hailed
joyously by housewives. The plan sug-
gested is that adopted jointly by the City
of New Brunswick aud Middlesex county,
with entire success, and includes the COM
mitment OF tramps to Jail under the tramp
act of 1895, phamphlet laws, page COS, at
hard labor. After such commitment, the
method employed is best described by
Chief of Police Francis Harding, of New
Brunswick, in letter TO Prosecutor Starr
He says:
"W. C. Cause, chairman of Freeholders
committee, bought twelve iron balls, rs
pounds in weight, and six feet of chain
with leg irons attached. Then the county
and city officers went for the tramps. They
got twelve of them in few days. Six of
them refused to work. The Sheriff put
them in the work house attached to the
jail on bread and water with no fire. They
staid week and then gave up. They send
three and four at time to work with ball
and chain on the streets and hire an officer
to take charge of them. They don't like it
The county pays the expense We have
not arrested a tramp in two weeks. They
don't come here. 1t works like charm"
Petitions directed to the Board of Free
holders, and praying for its adoption here
have been prepared for circulation in the
county, and if the Board take favorable
action it is probable that we will have the
ball and chain system here for the suppress
sion of the tramp nuisance.
