WATER BOARD IN A
0UANDARY OVER
BIDS RECEIVE D
One Firm Was Lowest When Two
Jobs Were Taken Together---
Was High On a Single Bid.

AT the meeting of the water board
last night in the council chamber the
commissioners were in a quandary
when bids were received from two To-
cal firms for some work to be done at
Runyon. The bids were on two jobs
and Peter Johnson, one of the bid
ders, announced that his firm would
want both jobs or none, as they had
bid on The work as a whole. After
the board had talked over the matter
for long time they finally persuaded
Mr. Johansen to accept one of the
Jobs, for which his bid was the low
est. SchantZ Ecbert received the 9th
er contract.
At the last meeting of the board
the matter OF having new valves, boil
er covers and asbestos put on one OF
the boilers was brought before the
board and the superintendent was
asked to get figures on the work.
He also asked for bids for the putting
in of forty-fve tubes.
When the bids were opened last
night, Mr. Johansen said that he had
looked over the work at Runyon and
found that by doing both jobs at once
he could do them for the figures Civ
en- and he would want both jobs or
else he would not care 10 bother with
any. for to have men so to Runyon
and do the work on only one JOB
would not pay. The Perth Amboy
Foundry and Machine Company rep
resented by Mr.. Johansen, bid for
the first job 1876. and for the second
$145. Schantz & Eckert bid $35 .
for the first job and 1852 for the sec
ond. Taking both jobs as a whole
the bid of Mr.. Johansen was the
lowest, but separately he was low on
one and high on the other. Mr.. Jo-
hansen decided to take the one job.
The other went to Schantz & Eckert.

MORTGAGE OF LINDEN CHURCH
WILL BE BURNED ON SUNDAY
Rev. Senus ReChnizer Formerly Of This City, the Successful
Pastor There For Two Years Has Done Excellent Work

A former resident of This city,
Rev. Sarinus Bechnitzer, will pass
the proudest moment of his pastorate
at the Linden N. e. church, Sunday
night when the mortgage on the
church will be burned with ceremony.
The mortgage was given in 1882
and was for $1,000. During the
twenty-three years and more that
have elapsed the church has paid
over $1,000 in interest alone.
Mr. Rechnitzer went to Linden two
years ago and since then many I'M
provements have been made and they
have been due in large measure to the
indefatigability of Mr.. Rechnitzer
who is one of the most popular pas
tors the church has ever had.
He has labored untiringly and
among the Improvements made have
been the renovation of the church,
nef gas lights, new carpets new cush-
ions, the increasing of the seating ca
pacity of the church, the purchase of
a new piano. the covering of the altar
furniture with damask silk and the
lifting Of the mortgage.
MI Eechnitzer, who was formerly
a successful business man of this
city. has taken an active interest in
Linden affairs and is q member of The
borough council. He is recognized as
an able speaker on any subject.
His success in Linden thus far
speaks better than words could OF his

Voorhees, Report.

William Voorhees, presented a long
report showing why he thought the
minutes of the meetings of the Board
OF Water Commissioners should be
published. Commissioner Thomas
Clark who was appointed on com
mittee with Mr.. Voorhees, to look in
TO this matter, said that this was not
the committees report and that he
would report progress.
The following master plumbers of
this city applied to the board for IL
censes: John S. Hanson, of New
Brunswick avenue; William A. Mil
Ter, of State street; 7. f. Zangenbers,
Oak street; Kelly & McAlinden, Smith
street; James f. Burns e Son, Wash
ington street, and r. B. Smith, New
Brunswick avenue. Some were grant
ed, others were not made out prop
erly and will be returned, after which
they will be granted.
The resolutions on the death of
MAYOR H. NJ. Brace, which were re-
turned to be embossed, were receiv-
ed and the board has decided to go
to the home of Mrs. Brace and pre-
sent them.
Superintendent Burns again urged
that something be done in regard TO
the taking up of the four inch main
along Market street before the street
is paved, and put down a pipe that
viii. be large enough to supply the
water demanded in further time.
Nothing was done with the matter.
The engineer was authorized to see
the property owners for the right of
way for the laying of the water main
from State to Insley street. 1t was
decided TO order $4,000 feet more of
siX-inch pipe and an ordinance was
drawn up to that effect. Commission

ALREADY ON THE WRONG TRACK.

THOSE of our people who expected some
II good results to come from the activity Of the
Anti Bribery League have cause to be disap-
pointed for the reason that early in the campaign
the first work OF that organization is being turn
ed tosthrsIise Of the Democratic party. Judging
from the accurate account given in the news col
umns Of this paper, Friday and Saturday rela-
tive to the investigation being made by the At
torney- Generals office and at the request, and
to some extent under the guidance of the anti
Bribery League, no other conclusion can be
reach than that the investigation was instgated
by Democratic politicians of the most discredated
type and by them intended to work to the harm
of the Republican party We do not mean to i'm
ply that the Bribery League, as an organza-
ton has turned itself over as adjunct Of the
Democratic campaign committee, but, in this the
managers of the League seem to have been made
the victims of political plot or scheme. 1t is
even hinted that one or two Of the active men in
the League, men who have been known for years
to be intensely Democratic, are not unaware OF
the objects and purpose that certain Democrats
have had in urging the investigation at this par
ticuar time Republicans have been notified,
throughout the state, that if they register it is
proposed to have them hauled before the Attor-
ney- General who will in his inqusitorial capa-
city, subject them to sweating process, and re-
quire them to give full account of themselves
and their dongs and whereabouts, and also in
what way, from whom and for what purpose they
obtained the money with which they registered.
Spreading such report as this, was done to deter
Republicans from registering, supposing that
they would not care to register if they thought
they were likely to be called before the Attorney
General, and subjected to a ridiculous examina-
ton, and besides lose considerable time. The
plot has been exposed, and we believe it will work
but little to the advantage of those cunning and
unscrupulous Democrats who do not hesitate to
stoop to anything that has the prospect of giving
them an advantage. There is plenty for the anti
Bribery League to do in carrying out its laudable
Objects and it needs not even the suggestion from
us that the moment it is found to be made the
ally of any political party, faction or personal in
terest its usefulness will end at once and the
organization be discredited and condemned by all
worthy citizens.
