What is true of the postman Is
true of everything else. There is the
street commissioner. We all take
delight in finding fault, criticising
and pointing out where improvements
are badly needed, but few have a
word to say in commentator for
what is actually accomplished. You
accept what is done as a matter Of
fact and only point out what is net
done.
Last week a gang of men were al
work under the direction of the
street commissioner, scraping the
oozy mud from the pavement at
Smith and State streets. Few, If any
people, offered any word of thanks
or praise for this service, yet a dozen

about some other section of the city

So it is in everything else. AT this

! pality at least fourteen DAYS before
the meeting of the said board at
which the said application shall be
considered. Upon the date fixed by
said notice or upon such subsequent
date as the hearing of said petition
may be adjourned, the board may by
ordinance and not otherwise, grant
for a period not exceeding twenty
years the right to use the public place
petitioned for.
IF the proceedings in this case
a been taken as directed by the
statute, there might be some color
OF authority in you to grant the pray
er OF the petitioners for the use of
the foot of lFayette street. IT such
proceedings as the statute e~njoins'are
not taken there certainly is not the
color OF such authority.
The charter of the City of Perth
Amboy enjoins upon this council the
duty to secure in every respect to the
public and the adjoining owners the
safe and convenient use of all streets,
sidewalks and public places, for the
purpose for which they may be laid
out or dedicated in said city. Have
the adjoining wner been consulted
In this matter and have their rights
been considered and protected? Each
member of this honorable council has
taken and subscribed the oath of
office to faithfully, fairly and impair
TALLY execute the duties of his Office
according to the best of his knowl-
edge, skill and ability. Amongst
other duties of that honorable Office
is that of seeing that the laws of the
state and the ordinances of the city
are not violated. To so enforce the
law that no one shall be deprived of
his property rights without due pro-
cess of law.
THE law of this state bearing upon
the question of the power vested in
this council to abridge or discharge
the right of the public in the use of
a public place, as You are asked to do
in this case, is clearly and eoncisely
stated by the honorable chief Justice
of this state in the case of Palen and
others VS.. Ocean City, to be found in
volume 81 of the Atlantic Reporter
at page 947, in a decision announced
January 26, of this year. In this cas-
was raised the question of the power
of the municipal authorities of Ocean
City to abandon a public wharf, which
Is d public place. His words are:
ono power is vested in the num-
icipal authorities to discharge the
public right; the easement is vested
in the public, and the local authori-
ties, as the representatives of the
public, are clothed with power to do
all acts necessary for the protection
of the public right; hut the lagisla-
ture alone has the rowrr to release
the dedicated land, and discharge the
public servitude, when it he's once
attached. No such power exists in a
municipality, unless it has beer dele
gated to it by legislative enactment.'
This is the law of the etate as de-
clared by the highest judicial author
ity in the state, and IL Won act con-
trary thereto, your oath Of Office is
violated. 4
"The, case of Palen VS.. Ocean. City
was argued in 1904 and declared the
law as it existed at that time. If in
the act of 1906 you Or Senator Silzer

authority in you to grant the prayer
of the petitioners, you should then
proceed as that act directs.

AS THE WIND BLOWS.

A few days ago we quoted the Pas
sale Daily News in stating that the
people must turn to the real friends
of the people, Colby, Record and
Pagan for aid in the present strug-
gle for reform against bossism and
corporation control. Now comes the
Long Branch Record with the follow
ing;
Everett Colby has emerged from
the retirement into which he went
after the defeat of the reform move
ment headed by him at the primar-
les last September the biggest polit-
ical figure in the state. His New
Idea" movement will have only one
representative in each house of the
legislature this winter, but its in
fuence will be strongly felt-and for
good. With republican and demo-
cratic leaders both In a large meas
ure discredited, the Colby star is in
the uscendancy."
AS we remarked before, the voters
of the state have a whole year to
think 1t over. When primary day
rolls around again we predict the re-
suit will be different from last year.

THE HOLIDAY SPIRIT.

People never give a man credit for
the things he has accomplished, but
are ever ready to criticise when any
one particular thing is neglected or
goes wrong. Such a remark, so Of
ten made, contains a great deal Of
truth, yet it is human nature. A
man is expected to do something and
to do 1t right. That Is the ordinary
course of events and excites no un-
usual interest. 1t Is when a man
does nothing at all, or does some
thing which Is all wrong or unsatis,
factory that he attracts public atten-
ton and thus invites criticism. AS
long as a mar does his duty, earns
his salary and conducts himself as
he should, he is just one of a great
many. AS soon, however, as he gets
out of the ordinary he steps into
publicity. Sometimes it is by doing
something more than Is expected OF
him, but more often 1t is the coa-
trary and fault finding is the result.
At this season of the year, how
ever, it is well for us to overlook the
faults, defects and failures we see
about us and pick out the good that
has been accomplished. Even
though II be just the ordinary curse
of events, it is probable that many
difficulties have been overcome and
many hard problems solved just to
keep things running smoothly and
escape criticism. Let us give credit
for having things as well as they are.
Take the postman who is now de-
liyering your Christmas presents,
You are receiving your mail just as
you have every week day during the
year, 1t is the ordinary course of
events, and, as long as the postman
calls regularly every morning you
Rnd nothing unusual and have moth
10 praise any more than you
ma prais e him every morning.
the postman should be a half
toso,, you would begin to
devhen he arrives, ask
will help you realize
Rstman is doing these
things ordinary.
