THE FREE SCHOLARSHIPS:

The voting contest for the free
scholarship in the Stockton Business
College, and 500 in. cash, as offered
by the Ledger has developed no
change of positions during the past
week. Miss Mary Heath has assu~-
ed a strong lead, with nearly 1000
votes ahead of the next highest canl-
date. The contest will close IN one
month There is still ample time to
get in and do some effective work
before the contest ends, and there Is
plenty of scope for those who are
tagging behind in the race to make
a victory showing on the home
stretch. There are two free scholar
ships depending on the outcome, the
second highest contestant receiving
one, without any cash award behind
it, however. The free scholarship
alone is worth $50.
The vote now stands:
Miss Mary Heath, jackson y, 800 votes
Lewis Love, Jackson 10, 825 I"
Jas PengeIly, jr. Sutter OK, $500 &c
Francis Bryant, lone $3.50 g
William Graynge, Volcano $50 &C

Resolution introduced by Alderman Stacey Last Night Authorizing the City
Attorney to Take Necessary Steps To Dispose Of The Cis Claim
To The TtIe-Means That The Struggle Over The
Land is About AT End.

Stops were taken by the Board of
Aldermen, last night, to clear up 1.-THE
muddle over the wet dock property by
selling all interest the city holds in
the land. The following resolution to
this effect, introduced by Aldermen
Stacey, was passed
Whereas certain lands known rs
the "Cove" or "Wet Deck" were in
the wear 1921 dedicated to the City of
Perth Amboy for the use OF the in
habitante, but that tho same were
never used by or for the benefit OF
said inhabitants, and the Board OF
Aldermen of the CITY of Perth Amboy
deem it impracticatle aud inadvisahle
to use the same for any public OF
municipal purpose, and that it will he
to the advantage of said city aid to
its citizens to sell any interest that
the city may have in said lands;
Therefore, be 1t resolved, that the
city attorney is hereby directed to
take such steps as may be required by
law to make presentation thereof to
the chancellor of this state amt apply
for an order to sell the same. -
The wet dock, or cove, is small
piece of land on the shore almost in
the center of the big plant now known
rs the Ramsay shipyard. This used to
he small marshy cove and was pre-
sented TO the city. Many years ago il
was leased to company, which con.
trolled land ali around it with the un
derstanding that it was to be filled in.
This was done and the late Hugh
Ramsay bnilt many vessels there.
There is dispute o~er the terms
OF the lease under which the company
got possession of the property. 1t ID
claimed it was leased for ninety nine
years with the privilege of renewing
the lease at the expiration Of that
time for another ninety-nine years.
The lease yet has about thirty years
to run. There arc those who dispute
the privilege Of renewal.
AS matters now stand no firm will
huy the Ramsay plant nor will they
locate here owing TO the dispute over
the title. Likewise it is Impossible 10
get oapit ii to invest in a plant there
owing to the circumstances. 1t is eS.
pected that with the sale of all claim
the city has in he tract, matters can
be slaughtered out satisfactorily.
