THE new board of aldermen is now
in active business and we venture the
prediction that the citizens of the town
will have no reason to regret that the
control of town affairs has been trans
ferred from Democratic to Republican
hands even # there is not an entire
change in the town officials. The Re
publicans have made up the commit
tees with fairness, all the members of
the minority having chairmanships.
The majority now have an opportuni-
ty of making a record, and it is pleas
ing to learn that Alderman Day, the
head of the street committee, has a
laudable ambition to make the streets
of Morristown a model in every re-
spect, not only in their good condi-
tion as thoroughfares but in point Of
cleanliness and freedom from obstruc-
tions. The next street commissioner
will make the duties of his Office para
mount and not a side line as has been
the case in the past. Aldermen Now

knows the value Of discipline and will
doubtless be able to improve the police

PROSPECTS, OF BUSINESS.


Henry Clews in bis review Of the
business and finaheiai history Of 1906
and forecast for 1906. which is issued
Monday, says The year Just closed
has been one of extraordinary business
activity 1t opened in the spirit OF
doubt it closesin a spirit of almost
dangerous optimism. Mr.. Clews does
not find the indications for the coming
year altogether satisfactory. He notes
some of the weak spots, among them
being the danger that present pros
perity may stimulate over production,
which is always source of danger,
and the fact that some Of the banking
institutions in their rivalry for bust
ness are loaning too heavily on ques-
tionable collateral. Still, this expert
enced observer Of financial conditions
does not anticipate immediate trouble,
nor, indeed, does he fear that there
will be any serious reaction during the
coming year. He thinks, in fact, that
+" there are many good reasons for an
ticipating a continuation Of present
commercial and industrial activity, at
least until the next harvest. !"

KILLED IN LANDSLIP.

ton Left by Brickmakers.
Hayerstraw, N, X, Jan. 8. Fifteen
men, women and children were carried
down hundred feet in the houses they
occupied last night when the sides Of 4
clay pit fell in.
The wrecks of the houses Immediate.
~ took fire and if any Of their tenants
were alive after the landslide lhey were
burned to death.
Seven houses. went down in the crash.
The efforts Of the Hayerstraw ire de-
partment to extinguish the blaze were
not successful for hours, and during
that time other landslides followed the
first with great danger to those en-
gagged in the work of rescue.
Facing in RockIand street, in the east
end OF the town, the houses which fell
were of block of ten. Their rears
were close to the edge of an enormous
pit, For years brickmakers have been
digging out the fine clay there. The pit
is now hundred feet deep iii the part
nearest the houses.
There is no stream there, and the
snow of the day had not caused any
Washout. The fall Of the cliff appears
to have been due wholly to the gradual
undermining Of the brlckmakers.

VIEW JERsEYss COOP ROADS.

The annual report of the State Road
Commissioner will interest perhaps a
greater proportion Of the people in the
State than anyone of the department
reports which are now being submitted
to Governor Stokes. Commissioner
Hutchinson has certainly prepared an
interesting statement and it shows
that the control of this department is
III capable hands. The recommends
lions for some restrictions to be APP
piled to the use of heavy machines on
the thoroughfares for which the State
gives aid are good, and his suggestion
to tax automobiles on the basis OF the
damage they occasion to the highways
is novel, and will be regarded by most
people as a wise and just proposition.
Commissioner Hutchinson declares
that tile stone roads of the State are
being badly damaged by fast driving
and by modern appliances on automo-
biles, and he advises that the owners
OF such machines be compelled to bear
the burden Of such expense.
The proposition made by Commits
sioner Hutchinson is that all automo-
biles be taxed by the Commonwealth
on the basis of their destructive
powers, the measure to be the maxi
mum speed Of which they are capable.
He declares that armored tires, chain
tires and blowers are also sources Of
much damage to the roads and should
be prohibited by law
There is one other cause of I'M
necessary wear and tear to our roads, Z
says the commissioner, that should
be removed. 1t is the narrow tire on
heavily loaded wagons. This State
might protitably follow the example
OF Massachusetts and Connecticut,
which impose a penalty not exceeding
300 on all wagons having tires Of
less than a prescribed width for given
size of axle.
Another recommendation made by
the commissioner is that freeholders
make their road appropriations in
January instead Of May In order that
State aid might be secured and work
commenced the same year. To this
end an amendment to the present
law would be required and this is adj
yised. "
In his Statistics Commissioner
Hutchinson shows that since the pass
ace Of the State aid law In 1892, I'LL
miles OF road have been built in New
Jersey at total cost of Sl,925, AL.
New Jersey was a pioneer in the State
aid movement for good roads, and it
has a fine record, and its improved
roads are the examples for other.

good recommendation and among
them one that is receiving general COM

the Jamesburg Reform School, should
be compelled to bear either the whole
or part of the cost of maintenance
when they are able to do SO. This

As usual before the converting OF
the Legislature there is frantic APP
peal for the solons to get busy at once.
pass bills and go home. Ifthey did so
there would be a long-drawn howl
from all sections Of the State. The
average legislative bill reads all right
when presented, but when printed and
submitted to publicity usually comes
back in much amended state. AS it
is, with all the deliberation, from one
third to one-half Of the bills passed
are amendments and repealers, and
what the result would,be if bills were
rushed through without the people
having an opportunity to see them
would be hard to imagine. In law
making, especially, it is wise to make
haste slowly.
