QUEER REASONING.
free Traders Favor Amy Treaty That
Annihilatcs Tariff.

The tariff revisionistS and free trad
ers are filed with scOrn and anger at
the impudence of the Gloucester peo
PIE in protesting against the reciproc
fly treaty with Newfoundland ON the
ground that it would ruin their fishing
industries. TO the ordinary mind 1t
would seem perfectly natural that any
industry should protest against a
treaty which would ruin it. But by
some peculiar twist of reasoning the
tariff tinker and the free trader regard
the making of Il treaty with tariff an
initiating clause "a duty paramount
and superior to the preservation of the
national Industries.
If an industry Is TO be wiped out by
its operation. so much the more reason
for IFS ratification The eastern mug

HOPE FOR THE
BRIDGE NOW.
Plans for Steel Spans At Last
Approved by the War
Department.

The plans for the steel spans in the
Amboy bridge have been approved by
the War Department and were refor-
warded yesterday. This information
was conveyed in telegram from
Washington. d. c., received by Free
holder G. ]. Haney yesterday after
noon.
The telegram reads as follows:
''Plans for additional spans Amboy
bridge approved and forwarded today.
JOHN C. SCOFIELD,
Chief Clerk. "
This news, gratifying to freeholders
and everyone in the county alike,
comes only after long delays and
bitches of discouraging proportions.
The plans, after being sent to the War
Department by the county authorities,
according TO law, lay untouched and
unnoticed in the national offices for
weeks. Letters and requests availed
nothing. Finally, few weeks ago,
Freeholders Haney and Glenn were
designated committee to go to Wash
ington and ascertain the cause for
such seemingly unnecessary delays.
Then came the report that the plans
had been mislaid in the offices of the
war department. They were dug out
and the dirt scraped off, and then the
examination which eliminated yestcr-
day was begun.
The bids for putting in these spans,
which are designed to withstand the
assaults of the ice foes in winter, can
now be advertised for by the freehold
efs. With the approach question on
this side in its present state of pro-
gress, a light can be discerned
through the heavy mists of delay, le-
gal red tape and untoward happen
ings. by which the bridge has thus
far been enshrouded.
