New Chnrtcr Wanted.

Newark's new democratic admins
tration is dissatisfied with the charter
of that municipality, it Is stated, and
is to apply to the legislature for a
new one, which will substitute single
headed commissions for the present
boards. Which boards is as yet I'M
certain, but presumably the fire, po-
| lice, excise, assessment, n possibly
the street and water and tax boards
are meant.
Such a proposition necessarily in
terests Jersey City. 1t is no longer
possible to change any of these bodies
in one city without changing them IN
the other, unless the doubtful expedl-
lent of leaving the operation OF a law
to a decision of the people is resorted
to.
There is not much question but
that some of the boards in newark
might be changed with profit TO tne
people, particularly the police poard,
which has managed, according 70 az
accounts, to build UP the most COT
roupt department in the state. ms
criminal courts of Essex are Iuli OF
cases of disorderly and gamDilne
houses, which the sheriff ra1ded Il
the police would not.
But a change from a bipartisan
board to a single commissioner wouio
not necessarily redeem the depart
ment. New York has a single head,
ed police commission, n IT, WI
scarcely be denied that Under ~ tne
department has gone from a 10
worse, until 1t is now fuller OF graft
ers than ever before.
Generally the people get, undei
any system, just about the KING q
government they want. They can
compel a Commission of one man, vi
a commission Of four men, 70 penave
themgelkes. If thew want to. tn

June / is now the date for the
changes or the Amboy bridge. The
public was hoping the work would
be completed by that time. 1t now
looks as if we would be lucky if the
work is well under way by that time.
1t might be noted in passing that an
other $4,000 of the county's money
is going into the structure. OF course
there is no help for it now, but If
the old board-the one which Haney,
Fountain and the like, belonged to
had built a real bridge in the first
place this $4,000 expense would not
be necessary.

Railroads md Safety.

Golfers joins the Attorney-Gener-
al of Missouri in maintaining that it
is not the public, overeager for speed,
nor Is it the trade unions who pre-
vent discipline, that are responsible
for our shameful and ruthless muir
der of travellers. 1t is the railroad d.
rectors and officers of railroads,
and none else. In it's issue for March
8 Golfers says:
If a faster train is put on a rail-
road than can safely be ruE, IS il fair
to charge every accident, to every
kind of train, up to speed mania in
the people? Are not these fliers Of
ten mere advertisements which d.
rectly do not even pay expenses?
Here is a question from the attorney
general of Missouri: when the true
obligations on the part of these men
who are in charge of these great en-
terprises are considered, Is 1t not
clear that instead of using the money
of the road to gamble with and to Sc
cure the control of competing lines,
contrary to the principles of our COM
mon law and our statute law, such
money should be used to improve the
roadbed, to straighten the line, to
strengthen the bridges, to increase
the number and the safety of the cars
in order that business may he prompts
ly and properly conducted, in order
that life may be made o s%ecure??"
A blind agitation for lower rates or
all roads, regardless of whether rates
are more than high enough to give
fair profit on capital actually invest
ed, may do much harm. Agitation for
the introduction of moral methods,
such as the dropping of rebates and
of passes, has already accomplished
something. The agitation that is
most called for now is one for the in
PRODUCTION of every safety appliance

"Crowell faction and Bradley fac

is not the only one who dislikes the

much opposed to the present state OF
affairs as he would have us believe,
1t is within his power to change it.
All Mr.. Crowell has to do is to eX-
press a willingness to vote for a mai

known to the much les murderous
trains of Europe.
Many things which are harmful or
perilous we can avoid using If we
have adequate intelligence. Trains
we are compelled to take. If riding
in France or England can be less
dangerous than war, it's perils can be
decreased by us. finder box cars
can be abolished. Highly developed
electric signals, including those made
possible by electricity, can be intro
duced. Too long hours by employees
can be ended. A much higher stand
ard of personal efficiency can be
brought about. If. as railroad men
charge, union labor makes discipline
impossible, let the officials come
plainly and fully before the public
with the facts, and union labor will
find itself speedily compelled to ac-
quiesce.-Collier's.

TALES OF A SNOWFLAKE.

Boom in the sale of rubbers.
This weather comes rather hard
on those who have just bought new
automobiles.
Now they've got until June 1 to re-
move the piling in the Amboy bridge.
It's to be hoped they'll have the
spans in before next winter.
Virginia juries have ideas of their
own, as witness the ~acquittal of the
Strothers brothers for the murder of
their sisters husband.
Water department charged man
for five years for what he didn't
have. Now he'll charge them for
what they have got-from him.
School board president objects to
term faction in connection with
that dignihed body. Perhaps he
| thinks there's only one side to the
question.
The constables aren't stuck on
Judge Booraem's new ruling to cut
down the number of court officers.
Those not appointed at all don't
care.
That Hoboken prophets predic-
tons of blizzard weather during this
month has made good to some eX-
tent, anyway.
Senator Briggs is getting dinners
and loving cups now. 1t must make
Prudent John jealous.
Elizabeth is reaching out toward
Roosevelt. If Amboy doesn't get a
trolley line to Roosevelt in the nea
future Elizabeth will get the new bor-
ough's trade. 1t would be nice to
get it here.
Snow, snow, beautiful snow,
Do we like it? No, oh No!
Winter Is a real mean thing
To drop this snow in the lap o.
spring.
Slush! Go get your rubbers.

EDITORIAL COMMENT.
rhe SolI Thnt GROWS Mem.

1.750,17S children from ten to fif-
teen years of age are employed in
farm, factory and personal service in
the United States. OF this army, l.
.O54,446 live the natural and healthy,
if frugal and industrious, life of the
farm. Most of these belong to the
families of the farmer. Even if they
do not, their lot is comparatively en-
viable. 1t is not necessary to observe
the children of such places at RAT
Row." in Cincinnati, the "Levee Dis
trict," in Chicago, or the Lung
Block in New York to note the con-
trast. Walk through the streets in
which the better class of factory OPP
eratives live, and ask yourself If the
worst bit of Alabama Red Clay, or
Colorado Desert, or bleak New Eng
land hillside, is not a better soil on
which to rear the citizens of the next
generation. The farmers sons and
daughters are the only children with
out wealth who may look forward
confidently to lives of independence.
The little red schoolhouse gives them
the rudiments, and If they have the
right material in them the road to in
%tellectual attainment is open, with
less obstacles than Abraham Lincoln
met. In these days of rural delivery,
farm telephones, and traction en-
the isolation and drudgery of
the farm are but a tradition.-Col-

If the use of the voting ma

known until t%wenty-four hours
after the polls close.-New
