voted considerable time to the different
questions of law involved. The contract
be or as contracts usually are. The time
when it shall go into effect is not stated
definitely nor lis its duration. but on the
whole after careful consideration of its
terms am of the opinion in view OF the
provisions of the statute now in force as
construed by our court that the legal eff
feet of the contract would be this: The
city would receive and the telephone COM
pany would be bound to furnish the tel
cphone service described in the contract
free of charge, so long as the municipal
officers shall continue from time to time
to grant to the company the locations
the contract. but if the municipal officers
should at any time refuse to grant such
locations as properly come within the con-
tract such refusal would terminate the
contract and the company would have Il
right to impose charges for it's service
furnished after such REFUSAL or if the
State or city should impose any lawful
tax or license upon the company as com
pcnsation for the granting of such loca-
tons or the occupation of the streets by
said company, such act would terminate
the contract.
II the contract should be terminated by
the city in either of the ways mentioned
after locations had been granted for poles.
wires or conduts. then the question would
arise. what right, if any, has The city
parted with and the company acquired by
virtue of the locations which may al
ready have been granted to it under the
contract.
This is an important question and has
been carefully considered.
1t is a well established principle of law
that the powers of a municipality in re-
spect to the control of its streets are
held in trust for the public benefit. and
cannot. unless clearly authorized by a
valid legisla tive enactment be surrender

which undertakes to barter away the
rights of the municipality to control and
regulate the proper use of its streets
would be void.

the company any vested rights in the

1t developed that the collectors books
had not been audited and it was order
ed done at once. A resolution passed
some months ago making a change in
the rates of the Wildwood Water Com
pany was rescinded, and Solicitor Ba-
ker was directed to protect any person
from the illegal payment of meter rent
and that $500 of the incidental fund be
set aside to carry it into effect. Two
garbage bids were received. They were
from James McLinden and James NJ.
Craner. The latter bid was $500 for
one year; I'd year, $500; Sd year,
$4,000; 4th year, S2100; 9th year, $4,000,
to be removed off shore. Mr.. McLin-
den bid $1,000 for one year if %incinerated
or $1l00 for one year and haul from
borough. The contract was awarded
to Mr.. McLinden for one year for $l100.
The meeting adjourned to April "a.
Council met last night with Mayor
Baker and Councilmen Bright, Ham
ilton and Slaughter present. Very lit
tie business was transacted aside from
the adoption of a resolution i~nstructing
the solicitor to draw an ordinance re-
pealing an ordinance granting street
privileges to the West Jersey & Sea-
shore Railroad. This action was taken
because of the company's failure to
keep a promise to build a new $25 900
station at Wildwood between Oak and
Wildwood avenues.
