NJ E.Mamb has just installed an 1873 volt
battery in his electric light plant here.
With the help of this battery he can keep
the lights to their full power without
extra expense in running the dynamo.
In the past the lights have been trifle
unsatisfactory in some cases, owing to the
variation and dimness of the light, due,
do doubt, to the lack of power But now
that the battery has been installed, this
trouble will be overcome.

concerning APPROXIMATIONS.

The question of making appropriations
for township purposes is made perfectly
clear by Chapter 4 of the laws of this
year, which was approved February Is,
and which takes effect Immediately. The
text of the law is as follows:
I'm every municipality of this state
where tax levies are raised or fixed by
vote of the people at the local or charter
elections, the said tax levies, for each
annual tax levy for the succeeding taxing
year shall be hereafter voted for by the
people on the first Tuesday after the first
Monday of November in each year, and
with the same registration and upon the
same official ballots required BY law for
the election of state and county officers,
and not otherwise; and the said ballots,
voted as aforesaid, for such tax levy, shall
be canvassed, and the result of any such
election determined as now provided by
law in the case of county officers, and Ger.
titled to the clerk of such town. township,
village or other municipality.

Important Session of United Work.

The grand lodge of New Jersey, An
cient Order of United Workmen, will
meet in Trenton next month. As antici-
pated, one of the principal items of bust
ness will be the proposition to adopt the
rates recommended by the supreme lodge
The subject of rates has agitated the mem
bers in this state for the last two years.
Up to to this time New Jersey has de-
clined to adopt the new schedule, and as
there is no law in the order to force it to
do so, the question resolves itself into one
left to the grand lodge to settle.
1t took years of work to win the men,
bers away from the level assessments to
classified rates, but finally the new order
of things was adopted with scarcely a
vote in opposition. The members had
formed the opinion that the new rates
would be permanent, and it is no
wonder that they object to further in
crease. During the last year a campaign
of education has been in progress to ac-
quaint the members with the value of the
new plan, and the effect it will have in
making the order permanent institution.
Under the law of the Grand Lodge all
proposed amendments must be printed
and circulated among the lodges previous
to the session. The document now in the
hands of the lodges contains number of
minor changes. and the new assessment
rates. A two-thirds vote of the delegates
present is necessary to adopt any amend
ment Speculation is rife among the
members as to the chances for carrying
the new schedule of rates. Both sides are
claiming victory, but the whole matter is
in doubt. Those who oppose the change
argue that the order got through the year
1904 with eight assessments instead of
twelve, and that the old rates are salts
factory. The members who want the
change admit this, but say the time will
come when the number of assessments
will increase unless every member is
charged according to the new scale of as
sessment. They claim that the future
success of the order depends upon the
increased rates.
1t is expected that every lodge in the
jurisdiction will be represented at the
coming session to exert its influence either
for or against the proposed amendment.

The UNPAID Stone Road Bill

The people of this county are all aware
that County Auditor Worrell declined to
pay bill of Messrs. Stanley for building
stone road on the ground that the con-
tract was not lived up to and that there
should be rebate on that account. The
contractor differed from this opinion and
tried in many ways to secure the payment
of the bill. After trying to reach the
Auditor through many channels, some of
them rather shallow. and finding the efforts
of no avail, the scheme was adopted of
discharging the lawyer first selected to
collect the bill and putting the claim in
the hands of another attorney who might
have more influence at court. A very
nice letter was written in which many
things were called to attention. This was
the answer sent:
January 81, 1905.
Dear Sir:
Yours of the 28th, with respect to Mr..
Shanley's claim against the county OF
Burlington is duly received. We have
been advising the Auditor of the county
with respect to this matter, and he de-
clines to pass the bill. Either the clause
of the contract providing for road to be
finished within certain time and fixing q
penalty, means something or it means
nothing. If ii means nothing then the
county and other counties will insist upon
a different form of contract. The road in
question was not commenced so far as the
actual stone work was concerned unit
after the time had expired when it should
have been finished, and for months it was
plowed up and in an impossible condition
1t was a road through a thriving farm
community, much used, and the people
living along the line of the road have
made such vigorous protests against thu
payment of the bill that the Auditor hal
refused to countersign a check to the
amount of the bill, although through
some influences the board of freeholderl
have been induced to pass the same. I'm
less Mr. Stanley will abate at least one
half of his bill he will not receive pay
ment except as the result of successful
suit at law.
Very truly yours,
