Republican Conference.

The Republican voters of the sever
al wards are requested to meet at the
Council Room this Wednesday, ey-
eninG for the purpose of selecting
candidates to he nominated at the
ensuing primary election.
For the past years that the City has
been governed by Democratic ma or-
ity there has been constantly in
creasing income to the City from
taxes but there has been no reduction
in tax rate, or increase in permanent
improvements aud increasing CITY
debt. And now we are Informed tina
the assessed valuations are raised
about $40 900; but it is said that
there will be no surplus for perman-
ent Improvements unless the tax rate
is raised.
There are no charges of dishonesty
made against the members of present
Council but surely something is
wrong; and the trouble probably ex-
tends to every part of the City gov
eminent.
Last year some we'll intentioned
citizens tried movement on non
partisan lines, but with no good re-
suit The only solution of the ques-
tion seems to be for the Republican
Party to make set Of nominations
that will command the support of the
best interests of the City.
1t is always difficult for tue Repub-
Leans to secure candidates for the
important Offices they should be
filled with men who are taxpayers
and have the business interests OF
the City at heart Aud for this pur
pose this conference il called.
Let there be large turnout to he H.
the movement along. And all good
citizens should support the ticket if
made mp on these lines.

COMMON COUNCIL.

An adjourned meeting of Lambert
vile Common Council was held on
Monday evening, September 10th.
The cattle ordinance that was pass
ed at the last meeting of Council was
returned to council by the Mayor with
out his approval. The Mayor stated
that he vetoed the ordinance on the
grounds that it was unjust to prohibit
the driving of cattle through the
streets because it would deprive a
large number of our citizens of the
means of livelihood, and only very
few persons would be benefited and
they live in the Bird ward.
He also stated that if the cows were
to be driven out of the town the
goats should go with them be
ause there.are so many goats run
ming at large in the city that they
have become a nuisance especially in
the first and second wards. On mo-
tion the Mayors veto was sustained.
On motion of Mr.. Kramer the street
committee was authorized to repair
York street between Main and Wash
ing streets.
Mr.. MCGOWAN was appoi nted on
the police committee to fill the vacancy
caused by the death of William Leary.
On motion of Mr.. Kramer the ordin.
anee for opening South Union street
from Swan to Mt. Hope streets was
taken up and passed on final reading.
The monthly salaries were ordered
paid, and the police committee was
instructed to purchase a new uniform
for the chief of police.
On motion the City Clerk was in
structed to advertise for proposals for

-Hunterdon county is again agi-
tating the trolley problem, which has
been quiet for some time. Last Fall
and Winter a representative of the
promoters went over the proposed
route from Lambertville to Fleming
ton, via Stockton and Sergeantsyllle.
1t was expected that the survey
would be made last spring, although
it was understood that the building
of the line depended largely upon the
future railroad connections that
might be offered at Somerville, as 1t
is expected to carry the line through
to that place. The recent announce
ment that Joseph Ramsey, Jr., a
Western railroad magnate,i is seriously
considering the building of high
speed through electric railway be-
tween New York aud Pittsburg, to-
gether with other events of the past
month, has led to the belief that two
or three cross country lines which
have been talked of for a long time,
will soon become reality. 1t has
been authoritatively stated that the
Lambertville- Pennington line will be
surveyed this Fall, with view &c
building the road as soon as possible.
