A.H
The bill introduced for the Presi
dent of the Senate providing that
trolley companies may run freight
cars and erect platforms and sidings
for freight business is a decidedly
dangerous measure We believe that
the advent of we'll managed trolley
system in MoIristowh would be
greatly to its advantage, but the run
ming OF freight cars over the trolley
lines through the streets of the town
is very different matter. The only
condition prescribed in the bill re-
ferred to is that the municipality
having charge of the streets shall
give it's formal consent. AS the Jer-
sey City Journal aptly remarks
Trolley cars are a burden on the
easement, but for the convenience Of
the travelling public everyone is will.
ing to put up with the inconvenience,
but very few residents of any city
will be willing to have the public
streets used for freight trolley lines.

Some OF the western editors do not
like the appropriation by the New
York Legislature Of $50, 900 for the
st. Louis Purchase Exposition, claim
ing that it is altogether too small. We
should think that building suffi-
ciently large to represent the Empire
State could be built with that amount
of money and with something to spare
more especially when it is born in
mind that atthe close OF the Exposition
the building will be torn down. "a
bill before the New Jersey legislature
appropriating 500, 600 for the same
exposition is not at all in the in
terests of the tax payers. An appro.
priation of fifteen CT twenty five thous-
and dollars should be ample The
bnilding at the Pan-American was
altogether too. small, but with an
appropriation Of $25, 900, a building
could be erected in every way suit
able to represent onr state.

A NEW POSTAGE STAMP.

Postmaster General Payne has de-
cided on a new stamp, particularly
designed for the foreign mail SER
vice. It is to be Of a Denomination new
to the postal service-13 cents
Atpresent it is impossible to send
res istered letter through the for
eign mails without using two
stamps. one Of five cents to pay the
postage, and one Of eight cents to pay
the cost of registration. When the
18-cent stamp is on sale this will. Of
course, be obviated by the use Of one
stamp.
The design for the stamp provides
for portrait of President Harrison,
which is an excellent likeness. Mr..
Harrison is shown seated at his desk
in the Executive Mansion.

AN IMPORTANT ELECTION.


1t is highly important to the tax
payers of the County that there
should be Republican majority in
the next Board of Freeholders. espe-
oially as the Republican nominees are
men Of high character who can safely
be trusted to manage affairs of the
county For example. Wallace W.
Cook, the nominee in Hanover Town
ship is we'll known through the coun-
ty as reputable business man of
sterling character; in Passaic, E. W.
Schoneberger is native of the town
ship and man of wide business ex-
perience. He is opposed by the present
Democratic freeholder, W, r. Cook,
who should be easily defeated and as
w. W. Cook will be elected in
Hanover the good people in Passaic
should remember that too many
Cooks spoil the broth, In Chatham,
Charles A. johnson, Republican, will
be returned in place Of Dayton Bald
win, the present Democratic member,
whose election was the result of an
accident In Madison township, Lewis
A. Waters, who is an exceedingly
popular candidate, will be returned to
succeed Mr. Troxell, while Charles
Day and William Kinney have n good
fighting chance to win seats in Mend
ham and Randolph Townships.
If every Republican in Morris
County will do his duty on Tuesday
next the next Board of Freeholders
may be depended on to do its duty
faithfully ard consoientiously.
Prince Henry has no doubt learned
by this time something as to the
greatness of the United States Of
America He came with his mind
well stored as to our history, but
there is nothing after all like an
eye-opener. such as he is having
right along.
Gov. Odell has signed the bill pro
hibiting the shooting Of live pigeons
at tournaments in New York State.
1t is to be hoped that New Jersey viii

Mss. Mary,Seign, the beloved wife
OF Mr.. Frank Seign. died at her home
in this city on Sunday morning after
an illness OF not quite two weeks,
aged 81 years, 8 8months and % days.
Deceased, whose maiden name was
Mary Keppler, was born at Kings
.Coulee, Wabasha county, Minnesota,
May %, 1870. She was married to
her husband at Ada, Mimi, on Dec.
l3, 1887. -Four children are by her
untimely death bereft OF a mothers
tender and affectionate care, their
names being Walter, Ida, Nellie and
Hazel. a large number Of other rel
atlves and friends also deeply mourn
her departure, among them being
the aged father Of deceased, Mr.. Fred
Keppler Of Ada, and several brothers
and sisters, OF which some we're here
to comfort her during her last sick
ness and others came to attend her
funeral. Mrs. Seign was a good,
kind and affectionate wife and moth.
|er, Industrious and energetic almost
beyond her strength. All who were
acquainted with her could not help
honor and respect her for her gentle,
amiable and Womanly character.
Her loss to the home, now bereft ol
her love and guidance, is irreparable.
The funeral was held at one O'Clock
p. N. on Tuesday from the NJ. D.
church and was largely attended

adorned with beautiful flowers An
impressive funeral discourse was
preached by Rev. A. 81. Mckee

THOSE ELECTRIC LIGHTS, ETC.
More Arguments in Favor of City
improvements.

We learn that some we'll meaning
citizens are opposing to bond the city
for electric lights and water works on
the ground that it would fasten the
license system upon the city perma-
nently. In this we are convinced
that they are mistaken. The ques-
tions of electric lights and license are
entirely separate, and should not be
confounded. Whatever the future
policy Of this city relative to the
liquor traffic may be, we nevertheless
ought to have electric lights. And
we are one among those who believe
that we can better afford to have them
without the saloons than with the
saloons. Saloons and darkness are
more closely linked together. We do
not believe it is wise therefore, that
/ any friend of temperance should op-
pose movement calculated to give
the city better light and good water.
Nor do we believe that any citizen
should oppose this proposition on ac-
count of cost. AS the SHEAF pointed
out last week, no ones taxes will be
materially increased thereby. Those
who use the light and water will have
to pay for the privilege, which will be
furnished at cost with a small addi-
ton for skiing fund to pay for the
plant. In this way also we can
escape the monopoly of the Standard
Oil Company, the quality Of whose
| oil, furnished Warren consumers the
past winter, has been very unsatis-
factory, and we have all wished to
get something better. But whatever
our views upon this or that question
mily be, it is very necessary in a pro
ject of this sort, that We sink all
differences and all pull together for
the good of the town-and for the
good of ourselves.

PoweH, Wood & Co.

Z 80
A man firm bearing the name OF
Pew God & co., has started ii
business in our city, superseding the
old and well known firm of w. f..
Powell & Co., with which we have
been familiar for years. The guiding
genius in the new firm, as he was in
the old, will be Mr.. w. f. Powell,
whose business ability and expert
ence is recognized everywhere
throughout the valley. Incorpor-
ated with the business of the new
firm will be the real estate, insurance,
loan and collection business OF the
firm OF Flanders & Wood, the indi-
vidual members OF said firm, Mr.. III.
u. Wood and Mr.. E. w. Flanders,
becoming interested in the new firm.
III. L. Wood has been with Mr.. Pow
ell during the past ten years, and
knows all the ms and outs in the
farm machinery business to perfec-
tion. He is business man OF push
and energy, and the fact that he has
been taken into the firm as a part
ner, is recognition Of the value OF
his services in the pasta we'll de
served promotion. Mr.. Flanders
| -
will handle the firms real estate,
loan and insurance business at the
First National bank, and he is a
gentleman whose business ability
and integrity is well known in the
entire northern part OF the state.
The new capital and new energy
added will make the new firm OF
Powell, Wood & Co. a powerful con
cern, that will be strong enough to
handle a large and continually in
creasing business.
