FROM the Riverton NeW Era THE
MOUNT HOLLY NEWS states in its issue of
this week that it seldom blows its own
trumpet, to which we readily subscribe,
but calls attention to the fact that its value
as an advertising medium is expressed in
the many merchants taking advantage OF
the use of its columns. The NeW Era
has noticed with satisfaction its constant
ly increasing patronage in that line. We
appreciate also that THE News IS one OF
most wide-awake journals in this region
of country, and desire to congratulate 1t
on the success and usefulness of its ca
reer.n

A LAW passed by the last Legislature
empowers the borough of Asbury Park to
purchase the boardwalk at that place.
Gov Grigg has been requested to withhold
his signature from the bill and Mayor Ten
Brock and others who were instrumental
in securing its passage, are much exer-
cised over the rumor With the boardwalk
in possession of the borough great
change would take and the beach would
assume the appearance of that at Atlantic
city and other places. 1t would probably
mean an increase in the finances OF As
bury Park but one of the great beauties
of the place would be destroyed. The
freedom from booths in which all man
ner of amusements and catchpenny at
fairs are conducted has been one of the
chief attractions of Asbury Park, which
has been practically free from that idea
too prevalent at many seaside resorts at
which everything goes"
