Identification.
The public should remember that
there are few Labor Unions conduct
ed on peaceful lines, and in proportions
as they are worthy they have Won
esteem, for we. as people, are strong
ly in sympathy with any right act that
has for it's purpose better conditions
for wage workers. But we do not for
get that we seek the good Of all and
not those alone who belong to some
organization, whereas even the law
abiding unions show undeniable evil
dences of tyranny and oppression when
they are strong enough, while many
of the unions harbor and encourage
criminals in their efforts to force
yoke of slavery upon the American
people, AS a public speaker lately.
said: "The arrogance of the English
King that reused the fiery eloquence
of Otis, that inspired the immortal
declaration of Jefferson, that left War

was not more outrageous than the con-

upon the community. These men burst
into rebellion when the king did but
touch their pockets Imagine il you
can their indignant protest had he
sought to prohibit or restrict their oc-
cupation or determine the conditions
under which they should earn their
livelihood" and to assault, beat and
murder them, blow up their houses and
poison their food If they did not sub

The public should also remember
that good true American citizens can
be found in the unions and that they
deprecate the criminal acts OF their
fellow members. but they are often IN
bad company. ~..;s. ~ j., s.... IL. "a. 80.
Salt only hurts sore spots. So, tho
honest, lawabiding union man is not
hurt when the criminals are denounced
but when you hear union man "hol-
Ter" because the facts are made public,
he has branded himself as either one
of the lawbreakers or a sympathizer,
and therefore with the mind OF the
.lawbreaker, and likely to become one
when opportunity offers. That is ono
reason employers decline to hire such
men.

pany was organized for the purpose Of
increasing and improving the local
transportation facilities throughout
the principle cities and towns Of Hud-
son county, with a view to operating
these lines in connection with the tun.
nels now being built under the Hud-
son River We believe that the pres
ent local street railroad facilities in
Hudson county are entirely made
quate to meet the existing demands,
and that this deficiency win become
all the more noticeable after the Hud-
son River tunnels are completed. The
system we have laid out win overcome
this deficiency, by not only largely in
creasing and improving existing facil-
titles, but by developinga large amount
Of territory throughout Hudson coun-
ty which either has no street railway
lines at present or is SO far removed
from existing lines as to be difficult OF
access.
The new lines are so planned as to
tap the tunnels at points back from
the waterfront, so that fast time can
be made through the congested busi-
ness districts in Jersey City and Ho-
boken, and this, coupled with the
fact that the new lines will have SUI
perior track construction and most
modern equipments, will result in re-
ducing the time between the resi-
dential and business districts of New
York and New Jersey to practically
one-half Of that now required to get
across the river.

West Orange, which has promise of
being one of the most extensive under
takings in this section of the State.
T. Phillips White, head of the Mono

structure, to contain $50 rooms, and

seyenty-fiye feet deep, is to be located
at the top of the Orange Mountain, on
the property known as Highland Park.
The entire mountain front, from
Northield Avenue to the small lake
on the south, has been secured, with
a depth of about 800 feet.
Mr.. White said the entire cost, in
cluding the property, building and fur

wards of $4,000 The plans were
drawn by John s. Nitchie, of New
York, and present three-story sec

will be SO constructed that any one of
the three sections can be shut off, i'll
