SOME of the supporters of George l..
Record were very quick to catch hold OF
the report that the committee investigat-
ing the riparian affairs would not be able
to give the gentleman a chance to be heard
until September. But all cause for com.
plant on that ground has been removed,
as the members of the committee have de-
cided to shorten their vacations and come
and give him chance to make all the in
quiries he wants to. Mr. Record has made
two statements which have found their
way into the public print, the chief objects
OF which appear to be to accuse and abuse
somebody for even daring to connect his
name with the affairs of the commission.
What there is left to say to the committee
is not clear, but when he gets before the
investigators and is squarely met with
books, papers and questions, he may find
it necessary to change his tactics and be-
come little less abusive.
AFTER receiving bids from two contrac-
tors for stone roads and finding that the
figures were not materially reduced from
those presented few weeks ago the Board
of Freeholders determined to lay the
awarding of contracts over for time. In
addition to this they decided not to build
any more roads during the present fiscal
year which will close in December This
was wise conclusion. If the contractors
stand together, as appears on the surface,
to hold up prices beyond reasonable point
there is no justification in giving out work
to the enrichment of the men who are in
the business of road building. 1t will dc
no harm to let the subject of new roads
rest for awhile. Meantime it will be adj
visable for the finance committee of thu
Board of Freeholders to consider th'
question of appropriation for stone roads
Ii we mistake not the budget on tina
point was. SAC, 900. AS this money canno
be used for any other purpose and as tn
action of Wednesday makes it impossible
to reap any benefit from it this year Their
is no need Of the county tax rate beiny
kept up for that sum.
