FREE LIBRARY LECTURES.
Trustees Arranging an Illus
trated Series for the VIM
ter Season.

The Board of Trustees Of the Free
Public Library met last night and with
the exception of the Mayor all the MEM
bers were present.
Dr. L. J. Gordon made preliminary
report on the approaching lecture season.
He is arranging schedule for from 40
to 80 lectures, which will be delivered
twice a week through the winter. Most
likesly Tuesday and Friday evenings will
be days on which the lectures will be
given.
The Board resolved that they shall be
illustrated and will be delivered by lead
ing men of the country now available in
that particular line. The date for the
first lecture was not set, the Board con-
sidering the weather too warm yet for
assembling a large audience. The lecture
course will begin next month and the
same plan as adopted last year will be
followed this as to the announcements.
They will be made week ahead. The
hall will be thrown open to the public
at large and the doors closed when the
available space is occupied. This means
case of first come first served.

FAGAN IN LINE.
Foregone Conclusion That
the Partisan Mayor Will
Endorse the Outrage.


1t is foregone conclusion that Mayor
Pagan will sign the resolution. His
Honor said this morning: Il feel that Il
single headed commission is the remedy
for the extravaganza and unbusinesslike
methods of the present board. A single
commissioner would save enough money
to build a new school every year.
''The Board of Finance has made it
possible to submit the matter to the peo-
pie. / hope they will take an interest
in it, discuss it pro and con and on cleo
ton day be prepared to support me in
giving the city an economical and bliness
like administration"
Street and Water Commissioner Fer
dinand Heintze said that he did not care
to discuss the action of the Board of FL
nance. He remarked that he felt as
sured the people had the utmost conf
dence in the elective Democratic board,
and would reject the proposition for a
one man board with one man power.
Commissioners Nolan, Hauck and Sui
Ivan and President Smith do not fear
the results on election day, believing that
the people are not prepared to surrender
their rights of electing their own public
servants to one mantle Mayor--who
can appoint whosoever he pleases.
The Jersey City news. (Jersey City [N.J.]) 1889-1906, 1902-09-18

his desire on a ballot applies, by the gen
eral law, to only those cases where the
authorities fail to provide printed ballots.
''As the County Clerk will have to pro-
vide ballots having both affirmative and
negative propositions upon them, each bal
lot will have the words For the street
and water commissioner act of 1902" and
the words Against the street and water
commissioner act of 1902 printed upon it.
The words For and Against cannot
be printed in disconnection with the pro-
position, for the eraure of either of these
words would count for nothing under the
act of 1902, but would, bring a mark un-
authorized by law, render the ballot ille-
gal. So if the voter would erase one
proposition it would not only destroy his
ballot, but would leave it as matter
of mere guess work as to which way he
SO we have it that a ballot cannot be
legally printed without both propositions
and neither proposition can be legally in
dicated or erased. If voter should erase
either proposition, the election officers
would be criminally liable if they count
ed the ballot for any candidate, and, so
far as the proposition submitted was
concerned, his erasure would amount to
nothing"

ANSWERS CITY'S CONTENTION

Engineer Edlow w. Harrison, of the
Jersey City Water Supply Company, in
discussing the letter published in '"The
News" yesterday, from Engineer Gar
wood Ferris, respecting the suggested en-
largement of the dam at the Boonton
reservoir, said:-
Eve have nothing more to reply to
the city would lose 100000 and not $780,
that we have stated our position and
the city has stated its side. We are go
ing ahead with the construction work
as usual and will continue to do so until
the city stops US by injunction. That
will bring the contract into court and we
have no fear of the result"
CITY'S WARNING.
In the letter alluded to Mr.. Ferris
warns the company that the plans for
the back dam at Parsippany are defective
and the work must not proceed.
"Our plans were approved by the city
and we are proceeding on the lines laid
down in the specifications" retorts Mr..
Harrison.
The local authorities say further that
the city woul dlose 100000 and not $50,
600 if the plans are executed, because
they make no provision for q thicker
dyke if needed, to which Mr.. Harrison
replied
''The city knows what it can do' and
be better, one for 50,000,O00 gallons and
one for 100000. They elected for
the smaller quantity and we are going
ahead TO construct it for that purpose.
Our plans will not in anyway prevent
an enlargement in the future, but ]hey
are not going to undertake that at our
expense.
1.-The city knowns what it can do and
we are perfectly ready to abide by the
courts view of the contract. We have
no controversy with the city. Our course
is plain''
