ORDINATION.

The ordination of Paul Erdman, by
the presbytery of Morris and Orange,
on Tuesday evening was an occasion
of more than usual interest. His
uncle, W. j. Erdman, D. D., from
Philadelphia preached the sermon,
which was a clean cut, concise and
instructive discourse upon "Sin,
Righteousness and Judgment " The
charge given by DR.. Brown, secretary
of The Board of Foreign Missions was
most mastery, happy and appropriate.
Dr. Erdman, father of the candidate,
offered the prayer of ordination
which found an affectionate response

OUR CHOSEN
FREEHOLDERS
Met Wednesday and Did Naught
But Pay Bills.
Road Commits sioner Budd the Sub
Ject of Much Discussion Pulls
" Pot House Politics and POIi-
ticians Says TroxeiI."

When at the meeting of the Board
of Freeholders Wednesday, a resolu-
tion was offered TO approve specifca-
tions for certain roads, Freeholder
Troxell called halt and wanted to
know if these roads were being added
to an original resolution. If that's
the case there are others that should
be added also' 1T is the usual
course Of the board that after the
specifications for certain roads have
been approved to send the specif-
cation to State Road Commissioner
Budd for his approval, said Mr..
Hoagland.
$50, responded Troxell, without
the approval of Mr.. Budd, we can't
build the roads and have recommend
ed some that have been set aside to
give better chance. 1t looks as if
influence had been brought to bear
and that the county was being run by
pot house politics and politicians. z
Mr.. Budd cannot recommend roads
that have not been brought before
him, said Freeholder Cook.
fOther roads. Troxell replied,
"have been substituted for those we
have recommended to him and some
one must have carried the informa-
tion to Mr. Budd that we are to have
certain roads built but Budd says
No, and think if Mr.. Budd is to
have the power over the board, we
should all withdraw.
Mr.. Budd has simply taken up
roads we have recommended, said
Freeholder Kimball, and fortunately
as Mr. Troxell has the roads all fixed
he now wishes to economize. =
'No, - retorted Troxell, II believe
there are other taxpayers besides
those who live in Madison
''If influence can be brought to
bear in getting new roads, ! believe
in it, 2 said Kimball.
mo replied Troxell, g it isn't the
influence; it's the pull. -
Notwithstanding Troxell's kick the
resolutions was adopted to recommend
and send the specifications of the fol-
lowing roads to Commissioner Buffd
for his approval: Montville Township
road from Pequannoc Township line
| to Boonton Township, known as
hiuCOIu IdIh, N1DIlbtlll6 anu MOTIFS
town road, the Hamburg Turnpike,
Pompton, and a road in Roxbury
Township known as the Brooklyn
road
The inhabitants of the township of
Rockaway, through their attorney
j Ford d. Smith, sprung a surprise on
the members in the nature of q bin
amounting to $593 II, which is the
township claim from Morris County;
which sum was expended for the sup
port of Columbus Blanchard and fam
lily Of five persons, from November
25, 1899 to January %. 1900 1t APP
pears that the family have been re-
fused admission to the poorhouse and
during the above. period smallpox
broke out in the family and the
township authorities expended the
above amount ON the family as re-
suit. 1t was surprise to the Free
holders, not that the money had been
put to a just cause, but at the as
toundingly large amounts. 1t will
be interesting to Morristown people
to note the following itemized bill as
