BASE BALL NOTES.

On Decoration Day afternoon be-
fore a large crowd, Morris Academy
defeated the Webb Academy team by
a score of IL to 2. The boys did not
play their usually strong fielding game
but had their eyes on the ball in a
way which would delight the strong
est rooters. Murnan distinguished
himself by five hard hits-a single,
two two-baggers and TWO three-bag-
gers, while Whitmore almost dupli-
Gated the record by sending two hard
drives to left field each for two bases,
and completing his record for the day
by terrific drive over the bank for a
home run. Clark struck out fifteen,
while Emery at second was in the
game from beginning to end.

COMMISSIONER SMITH Of the State
Department of Motor Vehicles has
written to all the police authorities
and Boards of Freeholders in New
Jersey urging the necessity of local
cooperation in the enforcement of the
automobile laws. Mr.. Smith tells
them that the department had hoped
to be in position to render substan-
tial assistance in policing the roads,
but the policy would be deemed I'M
wise to undertake it without careful
legislative consideration. The regu-
larly authorized police officials of the
counties and municipalities therefore
must bear the entire burden of appre-
bending violators, the State DEPART
mont's work remaining administra-
tive or judicial. He suggests that in
the country districts the Freeholders
employ special policemen mounted on
motor cycles.

Analysis of Vote for sewer.
EDITOR OF THE CHRONICLE

Dear sir:
Commenting on letter that aimed
to find out the amount of civic spirit
indicated by our recent majoritieS for
sewerage, in 1.-THE Chronicle " on
May 18th, you stated that cursory
examination of the Assessors dupli
cate shows about $50 voters owning
real estate. AS the property vote for
the sewer was some 400 lively inter-
est in the election was plainly indi-
Gated.
The 400 voters, however, included
owners (A) of personal as well as real
property, and, as by the duplicate
there are considerably oyer 1000 prop
erty owners voters apparently in the
Majority, for both together l,500
would seem nearer the mark than 100;
if so, instead of more than one-half
much less than one-third went to the
polls.
1t would be public service if any
one could take time to count the exact
number of property owning voters in
the duplicate; but pending that in
formation at least all can agree that
the more our civic spirit is evoked the
better it will be for our town.

AND now the Newark Evening News
admits that State Treasurer VOORHEES,
Is correct in his Interpretation of the
law fixing the rete of interest on the
State deposits. In an article on the
subject, after narrating the circum-
stances which led to the passage Of the
act upon the recommendation of Gov
ernor Murphy, it says; 1.-THE measure
went further than the Governor sug-
gested, however, and made it the duty
of the treasurer to deposit all public
moneys in such of the national banks
located within this State, and institu-
tions authorized by this State to carry
On q banking business, as he may Sc
lect, that will allow interest not ex-
ceeding two per cent. per annum on
all balances to the credit of the treas
urer; all interest so earned shall be
credited to the State. In addition,
the law permitted the Stare treasurer
TO deposit money in banks without it,
terest if he was satisfied that the
banks Offering to pay such interest
were not safe repositories, bnt he was
prohibited from putting more than
100000 in any one institution. 1t is
under this law that State Treasurer
Voorhees, claimed, before the investi-
eating committee, that he could not
require more than two per cent. inter-
est on deposits of State funds, and the
language of the act bears him out. He
is, therefore, free from criticism on
that score, and blame ifor the made
quate returns from those deposits
must be placed on the shoulders of
the persons who drafted the act and
succeeded in putting it Though the

SUBSCRIPTION RATES

In granting an injunction growing
out of labor dispute in 1902, Vice
Chancellor Bergen said in regard to
picketing to Iersuade workmen not to
take employment, that it is sin its
mildest form nuisance, and to COM
pei a manufacturer to have the natu-
raj flow Of labor to his employment
sifted by a self-constituted antagonis-
tic committee, whose very presence
upon the highway for such purpose is
deterrent, is just as destructive OF his
property as is boycott which pre-
vents the sale Of his product. He
quotes with approval the assertion OF
Judge Mcpherson of the United States
Circuit Court: "There is and can be
no such thing as peaceful picketing,
any more than there can be chaste
yulgarity or peaceful mobbiIg, or law
full lynching" Vice. Chancellor Ber-
gen finds that conspiracy was enter
cred into by the defendants, and the
injunction is granted. The Minatola
trouble was settled long ago, but the
decision will be interesting in future
disputes Of the kind. 1t supports the
decision given by Vice-Chancellor Pit
ney in a Paterson silk strike that oc-
cured about the same time, and which
decision was upheld by the Court of
Errors and Appeals. So that it may
be regarded as settled in New Jersey
that workingmen have the right to
strike, but must not interfere with
those who are willing to take thei !.

ATTORNEY GENERAL MCCARTER
has advised the Governor that the
Hillery Water Supply Commission
bill, now awaiting his approval, will
not injurously affect the rights now
enjoyed by any municipality to take
potable waters for drinking purposes
and municipal uses, or injuriously af-
feet any municipality by diminishing
the flow of the stream; nor will it in
any way confirm or legalize any priv
ileges which any corporation or water
company engaged in the business of
appropriating and selling water now
exercises without legal right. The
Hillery bill is intended 10 place the
water supply of the Stare under State
control. 1t is carrying into effect the
recommendations made by the Cover
nor in his last two annual messages to
the Legislature. The Court of Errors
and Appeals has decided that the
ownership of the potable waters is in
the State, and, as the Governor has
said, its conservation presents the
most important problem before the
people of New Jersey. The Hillery
bill is based upon the report made by
the State Geologist, who, with the
Riparian Commissioners, made a spec
ial investigation Of the subject last
year. The Governors views on the
potable water question are we'll
known, and there is little doubt that
he will approve the Hillery bill.

RAILROAD NOTES.

The Boonton Times" has the fol-
lowing editorial in regard to the let
ter of Mr.. Caldwell
1.-The policy Of the Lackawanna'
railroad company is giving train ser
vice to the residents along the line OF
the road as set forth by Vice-Presi-
dent Caldwell in letter printed in
this paper last week is directly oppo-
site from what was the intention OF
the State when the charter was
granted to the old Morris & Essex, or
what the general railroad law Of to-
day intends, which recognizes them
only as common carriers.
THE law never intended that any
railroad should shape and control the
destiny of the country through which
It's rails are laid. Nor does the law
intend that a railroad company should
operate railroad through this State
for the purpose, chiefly, Of line TO
pass profitable freight and passengers
from another State and only furnish
accommodations to the people of this
State as it may seem profitable to the
Railroad Company.
&c 1t is sure that the law never gave
the railroads the authority to dis
courage passenger traffic on one divis-
ion of the line and to discourage man
ufacturing on another division. When
a railroad assumes to do this it takes
TO itself rights not possessed by the
State itself
"A railroad should accommodate
the public both as to freight and pas
senger service ana give every man the
same accommodation.
The railroads it is true are owned
by stockholders. but they are semi
public and entirely at the mercy of
the State up to point which the
courts shall determine as equitable
and just, both to the railroad COM
pany and people. 1t is because of this
tendency of railroads to only do what
is most profitable to them that many
States have "a railroad commission,
and for the same reason New Jersey
now has railroad commission law in
troduced by Senator Thomas J. Hill
lery and signed this week by Governnr
Stokes.
This commission has the power to
order train to be put on or for the
railroad to give proper service to the
people"
