UTOPIA SHATTERED
Dr.. James La Rossignol at sotial

Dr.. James La Rossignol of pslysr

Science circle last Tuesday evening
on New Zealand and its form Of gov
ernment.
New Zealand comes about the near

form of government, in acco risGcs
with popular theory, of any colutrT
in the world and the Utopia w.
completely shattered by DR.. l. BOs.
sienol before be concluded his talk.
he spent three months on the Is.
land, thoroughly studying conditions.
New Zealand. according 10 the
doctor, is about the most graft nd
den country on earth. 1t takeS on
little different form, perhaps, than
it does In this country, but, never
theless, it is there. The govern.
ment owns all public utilities and
the government is the crowd that
happens to be in Office and they work
the utilities largely for their own
benefit. For instance. to satisfy a
certain constituency the govern
ment, as represented by the polti-
clans, will build line of railroad in
that section with the peoples
money. There may be no legitimate
need Of it but the good thing is
passed around. The result Is sys.
TEN of railroads much on the order
of a crazy quilt. The two main
cities on the island have no direct
railroad connection, and one place
can be reached from the other, only
by the most roundabout way. Other
utilities are run'with the same lack
Of common sense.

"My dearest, l have been thinking
over our wedding trip and trying to
plan the details so that you will get
the most out of it. Quite appropriate
ly, we shall start on st. Valentines
day. We shall not hurry, but go as the
whim seizes us, and you can choose
your own route-London, Paris Rome,

And she replied looking far off, with
a certain wistful gaze:
"What do care about all that. dear,
so long as l know that you love meY'
Then he went away and pondered
over this admission, thinking from the
depths of his mans experience that it
was not quite right somehow. 1t did
not seem so human, so grl-like, as he
had been taught to expect. And the
the next night he came again and said
Darling, when we are married we
shall have a home-a real, true home.
And you shall furnish it yourself, dear,
just as you want it. Nothing shall be

And she replied very simply:
"Ah, my dearest, what does all that
matter so long as know that you love
meY'
And again he pondered her reply and
asked himself If this, after all, was the
ideal love that his heart SO crayed. 1t
seemed too good to be true And once
again he came back and said:
My hearts own, you would like two

beautiful. All these shall be yours"

Five Mile Beach weekly journal., 1907-02-13

George +. Brelsch, OF Phlladelphla,
who owns quite a number of lots on
the island writes: "In reference to the
consolidation of the three boroughs on
Five Mile Beach, would ask what is
the object of the consolidation, and
how is each borough to be benefited
by it.
1t seems to me that the one having
the largest debt, will be the one most
benefited at the expense of the other
two. Unless each ofthe three boroughs
are each individually benefited, then
it would be best not to combine.
suppose the ultimate object of the
consolidation is, to have one set of
officials instead of three, which may
be a saving. 1t does not however
always figure out in this way after you
make the change. 1t is a question in
my mind whether in giving out larger
contracts whether it will be saving
of money. | notice the larger the
contracts IN large municipalities, that
they are so large that they have very
few bidders, or in other words less
competition. The fewer the bidders
the higher the price.
If the consolidation would be the
means of reducing the taxes, so that
the percentage of taxation would be
lever than other sea side resorts. thsn
we will have something 70 brag about,
and not how big the place is.
1t reminds one of two little girls who
were Dragging, and did not know what
they were talking about.
One said her father was going to
build house at the sea shore with a
cupalo on it.
The other said her father was build
ing house at the same place, and he
was going to put mortgage on his.
Now what are we going to brag
about. The size of the place or low
taxes. Five Mile Beach is growing so
fast, that you can't get men enough to
build your houses. A great many of
them will not be finished when you
want to get in them next summer.
So be satisfied and let we'll enough
alone.u
jeremiah Smith, business man of
Leesburg, and a Wildwood property
owner writes: 81 do not favor con-
solidation. | do not wish to see Baker
Brothers lose their prestige. / think
that the word Baker Brothers stands
for everything good, honorable, and
progressive. They had about gone their
limit in Wildwood, and they jumped
Holly Beach, and started Wildwood
Crest and have made wonderful pro-
gress and are giving buyers of lots such
best as it is, it creates more interest
and is best for all concerned and
have thought this probably came about
more from jealousy, than for what
good might come from it,"
F. S. Bosch, of Tioga, Pa, a Wild
wood property owner in the west side,
writes: "My reasons for voting
against consolidation are that it will
bring up the issue of license or no
license over the entire island. The
opening up of saloons from one end of
the beach to the other, will keep away
the high class patronage the place
now enjoys"
Emma McNerney, of Philadelphia,
writes: 81 am in favor of consollda-
ton. | think there could be better inn
provements by being under one name,
than under five, namely Anglesea,
North Wildwood, Wildwood, Holly
Beach and Wildwood Crest. Take
Park avenue, they talk of making a
boulevard from Anglesea to Crest.
My opinion is it will never be done
I III it is consolidated. That is only one
Of the Improvements needed"
