PROGRESSING BACKWARD.

After several years of steady progress which was beginning to put
Perth Amboy in a position where she could enjoy the same advantages as
other cities of her class, it remained for three Republicans, and ne who
to carry the city still further ahead, to take the first steps backward. This
was done at the adjourned meeting of the Board of Aldermen last night
when, for no apparent reason except that they did not belong to the rgh'
clique or faction, three men were dropped from the police roll after having
been appointed and confirmed by the council at a previous meeting. The
roll call of this band who are moving the city backward instead OF forward
is as follows: Aldermen William T. Stacey, of the second ward; Aldermen
Stephen Schultz, of the sixth ward; Aldermen Matthew Smith, of the third
ward, and AldermanatLarge John Pfeifer. To these men the city owes
its first backward movement. Its hard to believe that three of them b.
and advancement, burning all bridges behind him.
The taxpayer sent the Republicans to the council chamber because
they felt the city was not advancing as fast as it might. What will they
think now? What can be said of aldermen who deliberately throw three
men off the police force, when, to give the city what it needs, ten should
have been added simply because of politics. Such actions will never put
Perth Amboy where she should be-. The city has been disgraced by those
who were elected to do their whole duty toward progress and advancement
We leave it to the taxpayers to remember these names if they should ever
appear on a ballot again.
ing to the city attorneys opinion the three men in question were appointed
and duly confirmed by the council. That made them bona hde policeman.
To remove them from the force, if we are not mistaken, some charges must
be preferred against them. Will Alderman Stacey please make known
what charges he has against the three men he dumped from the force with
out giving them the Slightest chance to defend themselves? 1t is no more
than fair to the voters that they have explained to them this childish play
man Mr. Stacey is much mistaken if he thinks he has the whole city in
his vest pocket as he has the "Mg four'in the council, and that the matter
will now be dropped. The people want to know a thing n two before they

RUN ALL CARS TO THE FERRY.

The trolley officials certainly by this time must have become aware of
the unpopulariy of the shuttle car on Smith street between State street and
the ferry. If Superintendent Burke does not yet know that the people arc
greatly dissatisfied with the new system and are loud in their complaints
he can spend a short time at Smith and State streets or at the ferry during
rush hours and soon be convinced. 4,
1t was given out that it was necessary to cut off the trip down Smith
street in order to make time for New Brunswick. If such is the case, why
not allow a little longer time to make the trip between here and the county
seat2. The three or four minutes consumed in going down Smith street
to the ferry will not be complained of by New Brunswick passengers half
as much as others are complaining of having to wait or walk because the
shuttle car does not happen to be at the right end, which is the experience
of hundreds of people every day. But we ire informed that there is
another reason for cutting out the trip down Smith street. which is ne OF
economy. 1t is said that by swinging the cars, coming down Smith street
into State street. direct and vice versa with the cars from Maurer to
Metuchen, the company is able to cut of two crews, one on the New Bruins
wick end and the other on this end of the line, thus saving four salaries
If this is true it is economy at the expense of the public. Nobody was
Inconvenience by the quick run down Smith street and back and hundreds
were accommodated. AS it is now, a passenger coming from either Maurer
or Metuchen and going to the ferry pays his fare for a full trip, but he
has to guess whether he will have to walk a good part of the way or not
1T is not uncommon to see twenty-five or thirty people at one time standing
at Smith and State streets waiting for a ar to go to the ferry. They hes
itate to walk thinking the shuttle car will arrive every moment and pass
them on the way, yet if they had started out as soon as they arrived, to
foot it ito the ferry, they would probably arrive there before the car had
even started toward State street. A few minutes wait at State and Smith
streets mean a great deal when one wants to catch a boat. If It's a choice
between transferring at State and Smith street Or transferring at Metuchen
going to New Brunswick, the great majority will say transfer at Metuchen
dor the travel 10 the county seat is nothing compared with travel to the
Terry and down Smith street. The present systemeis decidedly unpopular
and the sooner the Pubic Service returns to the old schedule the better for
the people of Perth Amboy. 4 tM ss
But as the Public Service has the franchise and there is no other line,
the company is In a position to say if you don't like it, waikiki Right here
In that event there would be no chance for such an answer. If the people
