The next Legislature will be over

there are grave dangers Of partisan
excess and reckless legislation. IN
1897 a similar condition of affairs
existed, there being then but three

The revolt against Bossism, so

1t was a notorious fact, TOO, thai
less money was used TO corral the
floating vote than has been used with
in a generation.
The simple truth is that over
since Theodore Strong undertook to
cad the Republicans of Middlesex
unity he has not only been q leader
mel but a leader of The best pub
'nion and has given the people
list of genuine reforms.
Strong FIRST showed his
h and capacity when five years

against a vigorous. compact dem
.cratic organization, and aided by no
organization himself.
Since then he has not had a re-

DEALS IN REAL ESTATE
N, J. BELL BUYS MORE MONTGoM-
 FRY STREET PROPERTY.
Cook and Laurie Secures Large Slice on Madison Avenue-MOdern Bus- mess Houses Are to Be
 Erected.

Real estate deals were consunnnlatcu yesterday which may mean extehsiVe expansion of the business district or Montgomery.
 Late yesterday afternoon N. J. Bell affixed his signature to check TOT 5O.0o0 and fhe entire block fronting on the north side of Montgomery Street between Lee and Moulton Streets, was conveyed to him by Frank D. Rom. The property has a depth or lO0 feet running back toward Bibb Street
 Cook & Laurie have purchased the lot on the northwest corner of Madison Avenue and North Perry Street from Mrs. Joseph Williams. This lot has a frontage on Madison Avenue of 2SO feet and runs back to the north 200 feet Cook & Laurie will build pusi- ness houses on this property.
 It will be remembered that SIX months ago Mir. Bell, through MT. Kohn, purchased considerable property on the south side of Montgomery Street between Lee and Moulton Streets, and MT. Kohn bought the north side. The property was bought from C. T. Fitz- patrick, Mrs. F. T. Bragg and ,. D Marks. The purchase price was $4O,- poo. Yesterday MT. Kohn sold his property for $50.0OO.
 T disliked to turn loose this property even at that profit, said MT. hoiii yesterday afternoon after completing the deal. Few people have oore con- fidence in Montgomery and Montgom- cry property than I have and I realized the increasing value of this section at- ter the erection of the New Exchange Hotel. But, am a young man, and was sorely tempted by the price. l am confident that the acquisition of. thls property by MT. Bell means much for Montgomery, although have no inEor- nation as to his plans.
 ''The demand for business houses IS increasing in Montgomery every day and wideawake men are not letting the cry for more buildings remain 'nheed- ed. I would not be surprised to see large amount of money spent in in- proving this property"
 A rumor has been persistent in Mont Eomery for the past few days that handsome office building would oe erected at the corner of Montgomery and Moulton Streets and the purchase uf this property by MT. Bell lends ere dence to the rumor. MT. Bell will no. talk of his plans.
 Cook S, Laurie, it will be remem- bered several weeks ago purchased the old First Baptist Church proPert2 at thc corner of North Court and Bip5 Streets and announced that they would erect thereon sky-scrapinE office building. The purchase of the Madison Avenue property and the announce went that they will erect business houses thereon. indicates that every effort will be made by them to turn the tide of business location away from It's present contracted quarters
 I+ will be remembered that it was arrounced that MT. Bell would erect Business houses on the property on the south side of Montgomery Street he purchased six months ago.
 No indication is given as to when building will begin.
