MUoH indignation was aroused in .Phila-
delphia last week over the publication of
an alleged attempt by the Director of
Public Safety to intimidate Hon. John
Wanamaker. The attack was caused by
the criticism of Mayor Ashbridge by the
North Ameracon, which paper the Director
claimed is owned by Mr.. Wanamaker.
The latter gentleman says he is not inter
ested in the paper. The Mayor and his
official Immediately prepared statement
denying the charges of Mr.. Wanamaker.
but unfortunately they admitted sufficient
to show that they are in an unenviable
position. The papers, not only of Phila-
delphia, but of other places, especially
New York city, have denounced the action
of the Director, and many of Philadelphia's
.clergymen made the occurrence matter of
reference from the pulpit There is not
the least chance for doubt that the two
officials have deservedly brought upon
their heads the censure that is now being
showered upon them. 1t is bad business

so to threaten him with an exposition of
his personal character. John Wanamaker
has been in public and political life for a
long time He has taken part in many
movements for reform, and has vigorously
fought all methods which in his judgment
were corrupt and needed correction.
More than once he has been threatened
with attacks on his personal character If
he did not desist, but up to and including
the present time he has not wavered in
the path he has CHI osen'and it is notice
able fact that his p ersonal character still
stands unattached and without a flaw. In
the present case the Mayor and his bench
man are the fellows who appear to have
been the most injured.

WHEN the trolley company first applied
for permission to use the roads and bridges
of this county, they said that they pre-
ferred to go on the outside of some of the
bridges on structures of their own con-
struction. The Pearl street bridge at
Burlington was one of them, but change
seems to have come over their dreams and
now they want new bridge over the
stream at the end of Pearl street. OF
course they expect to pay half the expense
or rather they will pay for half of it if
they cannot work the county for all of it,
but as the bridge is good enough for gen
eral travel and will last for long time in
vthe condition it now is, why not let the
trolley pay for new structure If they
want it {?

THIS county is to go through another
siege of discussion over applications for
permission to lay trolley tracks on our
improved roads, with possibility of the
same old result, complete surrender to
the trolley people. The scene of action
this time is in Moorestown, where the
Camden and Suburban Company wants to
occupy the centre of that thoroughfare
without paying anything for the franchise.
Onr position in this case is the same as it
was when the company that is now
monopolizing many of our good roads
made similar application. There is no
just reason why we should give up every
thing to these people without one cent of
compensation. The old arguments that
it is for the public benefit, that the people
demand it, and other like rot. have out
lived their usefulness. The manner in
which these corporations act, for them
selves alone, is perfectly apparent. The
application for committee to examine a
bridge with view of compelling it's re-
tracks, the utter disregard of the rights of
the travelling public by the Bristol road,
are facts well known to many. In the
case of the application to occupy the
Moorestown main street. sight should not
be lost of the amount of money that was
spent to make that thoroughfare one of
the finest in the state. The sum of So, 900
was paid for laying the road, and that did
not include the So, 500 expended to secure
control of the turnpike interest, nor did it
include the ten per cent. paid by the
property owners. In the face of this ex-
penditure the trolley company now coolly
asks that it be allowed to tear up and dis
figure as gift. 1t could easily take one
of the back streets or purchase the right
of way through lots and thus preserve the
streets intact but that does not suit.
The corporation must have the best or
If it is granted the permission
it seeks. the county should abandon the
road entirely
