CANNOT BUILD NEW
SCHOOL THIS YEAR.
Board Of Estimate Had First Informal
Talk Last Night.

The Board of Estimate composed
Of the mayor and two members each
from the Boards of Aldermen and
Education, got together for the first
time this year last night and talked
over the matter of appropriating the
money for the public schools for the
fiscal year commencing March /,
They will have further conference
and the figures for the various school
department accounts will be finally
gotten into definite shape and will be
ratified at a meeting of the Board of
Aldermen next month.
AS a result of the careful consid-
GRAFTON of the situation at last nights
preliminary session, it was stated
this morning that there cannot be
enough money appropriated to build
a new school this year, but that an
addition will be built to school No.
:, on Cortlandt street, and that the
Perth Amboy evening news., 1906-01-24

appropriation for the running ex-
penses of the schools will be larger
than that apportioned year ago for
the twelvemonth now drawing to a
close. According to the plans as al
ready outlined, it is understood that
the incidental account will contain
$4,000 instead of $1,000, as during
the year just ending and $500 the
year previous. The total amount
appropriated for the maintenance of
the schools during the year now ap-
preaching an end was s4S,300, and
the year previous it was $4,000.
The necessary reduction OF the tax
rate to comply with the Hillery Act
of the last Legislature will cause a
cutting down of appropriations from
what they would otherwise be. The
limit of the total tax rate per 500 of
valuation will be, unless the law be
repealed, $1.65, which is $3.50 plus
10 per cent. for the state school tax.

Editor EVENING NEWS:


| have read with much interest the
various communications and editor
lals which have appeared from time
to time in your excellent paper in re-
gard to the liquor question, partic-
ularly those which relate to alleged
violations of the law in keeping open
| and doing business after midnight
and on Sundays. | belong to that
class of citizens who believe that the
| licensing and selling of intoxicating
liquors is an unmitigated and un-
necessary evil yet recognize that,
while the sale has a legal existence,
1t is an evil and curse which must
be endured.
At the same time | believe the leg
al restrictions attending the sale of
liquor should be enforced and that it
is the duty of our authorities, with
the aid of the police, to see that these
wise restrictions should be obeyed.
| also believe it is equally the duty
of our excise commissioners to refuse
to renew licenses to those persons
who have been convicted of illegal
selling. | will go further and say
that after a license has been granted,
it should be the duty of the commits
sioners to cooperate with the police
in having the terms of the license
lived up to. | do not mean by this
that they should do detective work.
but that, after the police have arrest
ed and convicted dealer for violat-
ing the law, they should, when the
proper time comes, refuse license to
such dealer. This course would do
more to discourage illegal selling
than would a dozen arrests and fines.
When it becomes evident that a con-
viction means loss of license, a
great stride will have been made in
the direction of having our laws
obeyed.

icemen entering and closing a pool or

like to know if there is any reason
why the same course cannot be pur-
sued in the case of the saloons? Any
one who passes a saloon after mid
night or on a Sunday, who cares to

making an effort to listen, can plain
ly hear the clinking of glasses, talk

tions of an active business being car

| noticed in the papers that a
judge in Trenton, in giving discharge
to the grand jury, severely scored
the police of that city for not closing
the saloons and keeping them closed
on Sunday. Does not the same law
hold good here as in Trenton? If
the police in that city are expected to
enforce the law, cannot we hold the
police of Perth Amboy equally ac-
countable? 1t appeals in this way to
me, at least,
| do not imagine, neither do I de-
sire to insinuate, that there may be
reasons why the police are so vigil
ant after pool and billiard rooms and
other places of like nature, and yet
the law closing saloons be so openly
violated, with hardly any pretence at
concealment. 1t may be they are
slightly deaf, and defective in vision,
especially when passing such places,
and only need to have their attention
called to the fact that nearly every
saloon in Perth Amboy does twen-

into the matter, and | avail myself OF
the medium of your widely read pap
er to call their attention to the same.

and persistent violation of our excise

WAS SLICHTED

At School Board Meeting Last
Night Said He Had Not
Been Asked.
MEET WITH JANITORS.
Chairman CrOWeI| Explained
Children Under Age Leave
School 10 Work.

AT the meeting of the Board of
Education last night Commissioners
Sturn, Crowell and President Walker
had a little tilt over meeting be-
tween Commissioner Crowell as
chairman of the committee on build
ings and the janitors of the different
schools Friday night. Commission
er Sturn said that if a such a meeting
was TO be held he felt sighted that
he had not been notified.
Commissioner Crowell said that he
had called a meeting of the janitors
simply because they had told him
that they often wanted to see him
and could not find him. He then
told them that he would be in the
high school every Friday night from
s until 8 O'Clock and if they wanted
him they could all call at the office.
President Walker said he guessed
that this was the privilege of the
chairman of the committee, but that
if Commissioner Sturn wanted to at
tend these meetings he could do so.
Superintendent Shull said that
fifteen pupils between the ages of
twelve and fourteen had left school
No. 6 to go to work and he thought
that something should be done to
stop this practice. The board will
notify the CHIEF of police to look into
the matter as these missing pupils
come under the truant act
In speaking about school No. /,
Superintendent Shull said that he did
not believe that things would be
changed around so as to occupy an
other room in this building until
September. He said that he had re-
ceived a request from the managers
of the kindergarten that they be al
lowed TO use one of the rooms. The
board, at the superintendent re-
quest, granted the request.
The janitor of the high school was
reported i'll. The commissioners de-
cided to have a substitute employed
who would always be ready to go to
any school in case of necessity.

Boat Taken To Keypon Where 1t Was Identified by
Local Men Who Went There This Mornng---NO
Trace of the Cat Boat Has Yet Been Found.
RENEW SEARCH
New Hope Furnished by the
Finding Of the Bateau Start
ed for CIiffwood and Boat
Found There.

Word was received here last night
from Manager Butler, of the Man
sion House at Keyport, that a small
boat answering the description of the
one Otto Ohla and Gus Stone had in
tow with them when they left this
city a week ago yesterday to go duck
hunting, was on the shore at Key
port.
This morning at 7:14 O'Clock
George Stone, brother of one of the
missing men, and Otto Mortenson left
here for Keyport and in a telephone
message to the NEWS form Keyport
this morning, Mr.. Mortenson said
that the boat was the bateau the
missing men had in tow 1t was
picked up near Cliffwood, and was in
a badly battered condition.
When Ohla and Stone left here
they started for Cliffwood and now
that the bateau has been found near
that place, the friends of both young
men are wondering what has become
of the catboat. 1t may have gone
down, but it seems in that case that
some trace of it would be left. The
finding of the bateau is a clue, how
ever, and every effort is to be made
to find some trace of the missing
men.

NEW BRUNSWICK. Jan. 24:-
According to the latest information
given out by those who ought TO
know the inside of the judgeship as
to the successor of Judge Strong,
who it to retire at the end ofhis pres
ent term, which expires next April.
the governor will appoint either
Judge Adrian Lyon, of the district
court of Perth Amboy, or City Attor-
ney 7. B. Booraem, of this city.
1t is said the indications are more
strongly in favor of Judge Lyon land
ing the place than any one else. 1t
seems the republicans of Perth AM
boy claim they have not been given
their share of patronage for the ex-
cellent showing they have been MAX
IN of late on the election returns
and that they have impressed the
governor with the fact that they are
not getting the worth of their
money" as the small boy would say.
An outsider who is in position to
get as close to the matter as any one
in the state, declares that Senator
jackson has been advised not to COM
nit himself to any one as to the
iudgeship or in other words to keep
his hands off for the present, at least
until the question is in a little better
shape and something definite is ar
rived at.
This informant says the two men
now talked of are Judge Lyon and
City Attorney Booraem. The latter
already holds two positions and with
a growing practice 1t is questionable
whether he would think the title of
judge worth the giving up of his law
practice and the offices of city attor-
ney and Assistant United States Dis
