GOVERNOR STOKES has signed the
mosquito bill, and an appropriation OF
$50, 900 annually for seven years be-
comes available for fighting the pest.
Senator Brown, of Monmouth faith
cred the measure. State Entomolog-
ist Smith has elaborate plans laid and
his work will begin Immediately.
More than 100000 acres, represent
ing eighty per cent. Of the population
Of New Jersey, are affected by the 35,-
900 acres of mosquito breeding marsh
lands Of the State, and the Brown bill
provides for adequate measures to ex-
terminate the pest. 1t is Thought
that, aside from the direct benefit to
the residents of New Jersey, the ex-
termination of mosquitoes will result
in many thousands of persons who
have avoided the State hitherto visit
ing the summer resorts and Others
coming here to reside.

A SQUARE DEAL FOR ALL.

Commissioner of Motor Vehicles
Smith and his assistants, have about
completed their plans for the work to
be done by the department created by
a law enacted last winter.
The law goes into effect July /, 1906,
but there is no reason why automo-
bilists and motor cyclists should not
secure their licenses and certificates
of registration at once and thus avoid
the rush.
There are about 10000 motor vehi-
Giles in the state and the number is
constantly increasing. Mr.. Smith says
that the department. will do all in its
power to make it convenient and easy
for automobilists and chauffeurs to Sc
cure certificates and licenses and that
it will not attempt to enforce hard
ship upon anybody. but that the law
will be applied to everybody who I'M
dertakes to dodge it, without regard
for standing, wealth Or "pull.
And this is right. What is sauce
for the goose is sauce for the gander.
The law may not be all that it should
be from the automobiles stand
point, but it is on the books and ought
to be obeyed. If it isn't, the man who
breaks it should be punished.
The fact that the state is to employ
only seven inspectors has been source
of great comfort, it is said, to auto
mobilists who are inclined to travel
lonesome roads faster than the law al
lows, but they should remember that
the police authorities of the towns and
cities and the constables are to CO.
operate with the state authorities in
their effort to make the law worthy a
place among the state ordinances.

THE Dover /" Index" and Newark
News seem to be the champions Of
the idea of cut rate prices for office
holding. They are making point
that as Mr.. Milledge offered to take
the position Of County Road Inspector
at an annual compensation of 5000
the Freeholders should have appointed
him to the position OF Road Inspector
rather than appoint Mr. Mitchell at
1925. The funny part of the business
is that the matter Of Mr.. Milledge's
serving at lower rate was not consid-
cred until after the appointment was
made and then Freebooter Smith. put
up great outcry that Mr.. Milledge
would have taken the position al q
lower rate, and that is all there is in it.

THE MILK SUPPLY OF MORRIS
TOWN.

Z (
There seems to be considerable mis-,
understanding in regard to the milk
ordinance adopted by the Board OF
Health and to 90 into effect in thirty
days The object of the Board was
simply to protect the health of the
children and infants of the town, and
not as has been intimated by some
persons an attempt to drive poor men
out of business in the interest of GER
tain wealthy milk dealers. The care
full reading of the ordinance will show
that milk producers are simply re-
quired to take the ordinary precau-
tions in handling milk that the decent
ly clean housewife exercises in the
care Of her house and in cooking. Any
one will admit that when milk is let
to stand and a sediment is found at
the bottom of the vessel the milk is
not clean, and if not clean and pure is
unwholesome. Another point that
should be considered is that milk is
naturally thriving place for bacteria
If permitted to get above a certain
temperature, and physicians and sci
entists agree that if allowed to stand
at higher temperature than from
fifty to fifty-tive degrees, the bacteria
soon develop above the danger point.
Hence, parties who desire milk deliy-
cred at a higher temperature in order
to raise cream do so at considerable
risk. Like everything else, an inn
provement in quality of milk will
doubtless bring a Slight increase in the
cost of producing it, which people gem
orally would be willing to pay, but not
up to twenty-five per cent. Our friends
the milkmen should remember that
we are all subject to the law of compe-
tition and the man who can produce
large quantities can do so cheaper in
proportion than the man who produces
a'smaller quantity. Every new meas
ure creates more or less friction and
the milk ordinance seems to be no ex-
ception. Nevertheless, the pu bile
health is of prime Importance and
must receive due consideration.

STATE Road Commissioners Hutch
inson has under consideration propo-
sition to substitute asphalt for stone
in the construction of good roads in
the State, which, it is said, can be
done for the same cost Of the present
macadamizing, about $4,000 a mile.
M Hutchinson has been so impressed
With it, that, should investigation
now under way prove satisfactory, he
will have mile of the asphalt road
built at a point where it will get the
hardest usage. While the new asphalt
road is not to be Of the character Of
the city asphalt paving, it is claimed
it is fully as durable, costs nothing for
repairs for ten years, and will miti-
gate to large extent the dust evil
Famed for its good roads, New Jersey
is right in endeavoring to continue in
the front by adopting every invention
that viii still further improve them,
and If all proves true as represented
the new asphalt road cannot be other
wise than an advance in road improve
ment.

Purity of the Ballot.
/ 9 James St., May I, 1906

allies d., Mdy :, 1SUO.
EDITOR OF THE CHRoNICLE:--
The statement at recent public
meeting regarding yenality in our
town elections seem only too we'll
founded but, happily, those degraded
citizens who sell their votes are so
decided minority that it would not
s'pay" to bride them did we not I'M
wisely bestow on them the balance
Of power"
One way we do this is by perverting
a matter of business the management
of our town affairs Into a matter of
State and National politics that
divides our voters into parties which
oppose each other at the polls on
questions that do not concern the
town as town, when on the town
questions that are really the issue
the majority Of both Republicans and
Democrats may be in agreement.
So comparatively few purchased
votes, as a s'balance of power" may
be enough to win a Republican or a
Democratic victory, and at the same
time defeat the wish Of the majority
Of our honest citizens.
This evil in our town elections could
be eliminated by substituting for our
present seperate party ballots single
town ballot, from which all political
party names and emblems are rigidly
excluded, and in which the several
candidates are listed by their names
alone under the titles For Mayor"
g For Alderman, etc., of the offices
concerned.
Even after thus getting rid Of 'spoli
tics, however, there would still be
the legitimate town issues for our
citizens to differ over, so there would
still be opportunity for the purchase
of balance of power" to turn the
scale but could not this danger be
reduced to a minimum by our voters,
under the auspices of the town author
titles and our civic committees, organ
lied sufficiently to have means of APP
prOximately aScertaining in advance
OF election the wish of the majority of
our honest citizens? Then very many
at least of the minority Of these,
knowing that they could only win by
encouraging bribers and bribed, and
| for other reasons, would doubtless
accept the majority's decision and
vote it at the following election. Thus
united their vote should overcome
that of the bribed F" balance Of power"
and those morally defective citizens
who foster or condone it. The results
of elections having demonstrated the
uselessness of bribery, it would be
abandoned as waste of money.

SENATOR HILLERY's address on s'the
duty Of the voter to the law maker"
at Association Hall on Sunday after
noon, struck the key note Of political
purity. The people will have in poll
tics just what they work for. If the
citizen goes to the primary and sees
personally that upright and capable
men are placed in nomination and
elected, then and then only, will there
be pure politics. Then, as he said, in
a representative government the law
maker should be governed by the
wishes of his constituents. Persons
interested in any subject generally
make their wishes known, as for in
stance, the large crowds that attend
ed the hearing on the automobile and
liquor bills in the last session. 1t is
impossible for man to be informed
on all subjects, hence men who are in
formed should let the legislators know
what is right in their estimation.
With diversity Of opinion it is Of
course impossible to follow the lead or
suggestions Of any individual, but from
the concensus Of opinion get at what
will bring the greatest good for the
greatest number. And then there is
the point of judging the law maker
with fairness, which is SO difficult for so
many persons Of positive convictions
to do. A case in point is the excise
legislation Of the last session. The adj
vocates of the so-called Bishops bill
bitterly denOunce the law makers be-
cause the bill was amended and modi-
fed and say that they sold out to the
brewers and dealers. On the other
hand the latter bitterly denounced the
law and are taking steps to contest it's
constitutionality, and on Sunday
large mass meeting of voters in New
ark resolved to make fight for " the
free Sunday" The law must have
good points from temperance stand
point or it would not be so obnoxious
to the beer men, and to denounce the
legislature for not passing the bill as
presented strikes reasoning men as
very Incorporate temperance. The
summary Of Mr.. Hillery's address
should be carefully read and considered
by all interested in political reform.

THE Sunday "Call" never permits
an opportunity to pass for having a
fiiug at Morristown or Morris county.
Last Sunday it found its text in the
little incident that took place at the
meeting of the Civic Association in re-
gard to purity Of elections, and then
ponderously acclaimed about condi-
tions that the writer knew very little
Of. Morris county is far from being
the corrupt and debauched community
that the article would infer. The lead
ers of the party here are not without
visible means of support as they are in
some counties and business men and
corporations are not taken by the
throat and compelled to furnish money
for political purposes as they are else
where. The proposed committee may
find that there is room for reform
along these lines but the reform, when
it comes, will not be sutficiently.mark-
ed to make any particular difference in
the results Of the elections.
