In the House the Hudson county mem
bers were active in introducing bogus
s'reform" bills, for election purposes.
Among the number was. the familiar
equal taxation measure and a bill re-
organizing the Boards of Freeholders of
the State. The act is to be submitted to
the people of each county for acceptance
or rejection. If accepted at a general
fall election, nine Freeholders shall be
elected upon ticket voted for by all the
voters of the county, only five of whom
shall be from any one municipality in
the county. Salary of members shall
be $1,000 year each and of the director
81 500. Several bills were introduced
aimed at the trolleys, which, with those
previously introduced, were referred.
Next week will find the Legislative
work well under way and it is generally
predicted that the session will be short
one.

tees the Morris County members will
serve on the following committees
