oUT-TALKED RoCKAwAY.
That's What Morristown Debaters
Did to Their Visitors.

Arcanumites from Rockaway and
Madison and most of the members of
the local lodges were present to hear
the return debate between Rockaway
and Morristown last Tuesday night
in the Arcanum lodge room. Feeling
ran little high because the men en-
gagged in the great mental battle were
not only ministers of the Gospel and
professors of literature and science,
but business men of wide reputation
and experience, and as the subject for
discussion was practically one of bust
ness, these men, it was felt, would
give startling statements and make
pungent, if laconic, expressions of the
methods now in use for the successful
carrying on of trade.
The subject for debate was, +" Re-
solved: That the government should
own and operate all means of COM
munication and transportation.
Morristown had the affirmative and
the debaters were: George G. Smith,
Charles w. Ennis and Rev. Samuel z.
Batten. On the negative from Rock
away were: Prof. G. r. Gerard, r. j..
Davies and Rev. t. D. Reeves.
The first point put forth, both by
the affirmative and negative, was the
old favorite postotfice." This was
sharply debated, thrashed and toasted.
The recent scandals connected with
the department were "aired anew,
and the fact that railroads charge the
government so much for carrying mail,
which makes the postal enterprise not
altogether a paying concern, received a
genuine fuSillade.
The Judges selected were; George
Grove, Morristown; Mr.. Hale, Madison
and Mr.. Evans, Rockaway.
These men did not experience great
difficulty in reaching decision because
they weighed every minute point in
balance scales, and therefore en-
deavored to avoid any variance. After
the most careful analysis they gave to
Morristown the yictoryof course. Hats
went up in the air, men shouted,
others applauded, and the victorious
debaters were showered with beautiful
and euphonious words. A light
luncheon was served at the United
States Hotel after the meeting adj
journed. Everyone present had a
delightful time, and many felt that
they had learned something about
government ownership

OSE AMENDMENTS AGAIN
Special Election VIII be Held in This
State in September 22 to
Vote Upon Them,

/
Wednesdays Tribune has the
following:
The special election to be held on
September 22nd this year for the
adoption or rejection Of the proposed
constitutional amendments is be-
ginning to attract mild attention in
several parts Of New Jersey. 1t was
said at Trenton recently that the
vote probably would be light one.
Opinions upon the adoption of the
proposed amendments were not quite
equally divided, the prevailing inn
preston by a small majority being
that they would be rejected. So far
the amendments have had a rather
hard road to travel Defective adj
vertising caused the delay in acting
upon them by popular vote last year,
but everything appears to be in shape
for the election this year. Hence the
provision by the last legislature for
the holding of the election next
September. Some misunderstanding
prevails as to the purport and effect
Of the amendments. Briefly, they
create new Appellate Court, to be
composed Of chief justice and four
associates. The existing Court of
Errors and Appeals consists of the
Chancellor, the Chief Justice, eight
associate justices of the Supreme
Court and six lay judges. The crea-
tion of new Board of Pardons is also
provided for, which is to be made up
OF the Governor, the Chancellor and
the Attorney General. The present
board is composed of the Governor,
the Chancellor and the six lay judges
Of the Court of Errors and Appeals.
The proposed amendments accord
the same powers to the Vice-Chan-
cellOrs as those now exercised by the
Chancellor. At present the findings
of the Vice-Chancellors must be APP
proved by the Chancellor To the
Governor is awarded the power to
appoint the Vice-Chancellors, and
confirmation by the Senate is requir-
ed. The Vice-Chancellors are now
appointed by the Chancellor. This
proposed amendment seems to meet
with more objections than any of the
Others, because as is argued, of its
ultra-political possibilities, not to say
tendencies. If the amendments
should be adopted, the legislature
will have the power to determine
how the County Courts of Common
Pleas shall be constituted and held
One argument against the amend
ments which is likely in some mea-
sure to influence the minds of the
laymen is that the proposed new APP
pellate Court will cause an increase
in the State appropriation for the
salaries of judges and expenses of
about 100000 year On the other
hand, it is declared that the advan-
tage of having separate Court of
Appeals will be found in the relief
of the Justices of the Supreme Court
from great quantity of extra labor,
and will permit the court to work
continuously on appeal cases.

Iron Company Claims its Agree
ment to Compromise Case
Was Entirely Fair.
ANSWER IN CASE so STATES

Messrs. Vreeland. King, Wilson &
Lindabury, representing the Mus
Iconetcong Iron Works of Stanhope,
have made answer to the suit institut-
ed some time ago in the Court of
Chancery by Mary A. McDougall
against the company, charging the
latter with fraudulently obtaining an
agreement from her for the settle
ment of claim she had against the
company for injuries sustained by her
husband while working for the COM
pany, which resulted in his death.
The answer admits that William
McDougall was employed by the
company on December IL, 1901, and
that he was injured while being so
employed, but denies that the injury
received was by reason Of the negli-
gence of the company and further
that the injuries received were not
the cause of the death of McDougall.
1t was alleged in the complaint that
John S. Kennedy, the superinten-
dent of the company, came to the
house of Mrs. McDougall and stated
to her that the company desired to
help her financially. To this allega-
ton the answer says that the super
intendent went to the house and
entered into an agreement with Mrs.
McDougall, whereby he agreed to pay
her 1925 and allow her to remain in
the house she then occupied until the
April following and further sum
of 500 when she was appointed adj
ministratriX of the estate of William
McDougall in settlement Of all claims
she might have against the company
for the injuries sustained by her
husband
1t is denied that the agreement
was obtained from Mrs. McDougall
through fraud, but on the contrary
says that the same was read to her
and explained that by the signing of
the agreement she relinquished all
claims that she might thereafter
have against them.
The answer also charges that Mrs.
McDougall informed their representa-
tive that her husbands death was
caused by heart failure and not from
the injuries received at their works.
