COMMENT.

Governor Murphy suggests that the
eleven small counties would be able
to control a constitutional convention,
if an equal apportionment of delegates
were made to each county, in order
to ensure them against what he calls
1.-THE bugbear of Senatorial districts. 3"
He mentions Atlanic, Cumberland,
Salem, Cape May, Gloucester, Hunt
eTd5n. Somerset, Ocean, Monmouth,
Bergen and Sussex, and might have
included all of the others excepting
Essex, Hudson, Passalc and possibly
Union. 1t is doubtful if there is any
considerable sentiment in favor of
Senatorial districts in any of the
counties excepting the four last
named Trenton Times.

of Naurer, only shows how made
quate this city's present police force
is. There is a large settlement at
Maurer. 1t is within the city limits
and the residents there have a right
to demand proper police protection,
vet such q thing is impossible with
the present force. At present there
are.not enough policemen to patrol
the city outside of the Maurer section.
The time is not far distant when a
complete reorganization will be neces-
sary. All that section which has
divided North Amboy from Maurer is
fast building up. 1t is practically
doubling the size of the city. 1t
means that the city should be divided
into two precincts with two more SER
geants and another force of men.
This second precinct should be located
in Hall avenue and have all the north

a grader this spring at considerable cost,
and the work they are doing with 1t is
not only a credit to the grader but also to
every one using 1t. Fairview township
would do well to buy grader, and make
use Of 1t, fortmany roads in the township
needs just such work as they are doing in
