About Selling Real Estate.

A NY piece of REAL ESTATE can be
~ sold at some price.
Every owner would like to sell for more
than he can get.
OF course, property is worth the most it
can be sold for.
Generally, property is sold for the most
to the person to whom it is the most useful.
The finding of that person is the import
ant deSiderdtltm, and the owner who wants
to sell cannot afford to make mistake at
that critical juncture of his enterprise.
The best "FINDER' of PURCHASERS
of REAL ESTATE known here is the
MINING JOURNAL.
It's part of it's business TODD Just such work.

A Late Awakening.

The chairman of the finance commit

writes:
THE Woodstock municipal lighting
plant was installed in 1882, at cost Of

to serve the town up to the fall OF

by the corporation with private con-
Germ generating by water power. The
municipal plant had got in poor shape
Ind was not giving a satisfactory serv-
Ice, and this, added to the high price Of
fuel, induced the corporation to accept

MILITIA WILL Be CALLED
IF II IS NECESSARY
New Jersey Magistrate Secured
Promise of Support Of State
Legislators Before He Made
Threat Against Wet Atlantic
City People SquelChed.

seagirt, n. j.. Aug. 2S.-Governor
Fort made the following statement
today concerning his proclamation of
yesterday In defiance of Atlantic City
that he dare not call the militia to
enforce the Bishop law:
81 will stand on my proclamation
unequivocally. l mean every word I
said. The people will learn that
am not attempting to intimldate them
by threats"
1t was learned today that before
issuing his proclamation the governor
sounded the attitude of various lead
ers of the legislature and was given
assurances that if he called a special
session they would stand by him and
provide whatever assistance he re-
quired to enforce the laws at Atlantic
City.
Private kilograms from Atlantic
City this afternoon gave the informa-
ton that the great resort will be half
closed and half open. Some places
will keep open and others will obey
the governors proclamation. 1t Is
not believed that a special session OF
the legisla ture will be necessary, but
that special grand jury will be call
ed that will return indictments against
the offenders Of the city. 1t Is be-

Two Hundred ReSOlute Men
Resolve That They Are
Treated Badly.
WOULD ABOLISH OFFICER
OF STREET COMMISSIONER

Two hundred resolute property
owners of the Highlands met at Lii
brary hall last night and relieved
themselves of a large number OF
harsh things they had stored up to
say about the present city council.
The gathering had all the character
istics of a free thinkers meeting.
Everybody seemed to say just exactly
what he thought and none OF the
speakers seemed to care who was hit.
The city fathers were broadsided as
a body and DR.. Wroth, chairman OF
the street committee, and Street
Commissioner Martin Tierney were
handled without gloves.
The meeting was called for the
purpose of devising ways and means
of taking care of the flood waters
that are wont to flow over the High
lands every time it rains, but incl
dentally many of the speakers took
advantage of the occasion to mention
that the Highlands had been ignomia-
iously ignored by the city fahers IN
the way of street and park improve
ments.
The Duke City band marched
through the business section of the
city and up to the Library building
playing martial airs to bolster up the
nerve of the Highlanders and to lend
enthusiasm to the glorious occasion.
The meeting was called to order by
Peter Stewart, foreman at the AL
buquerque foundry and machine
works, who is among the leading citi-
zens of the Second ward. The cleo
ton of f. G. Pratt, the groceryman'
and l.. w. GALES, the well known
insurance writer, as chairman and
secretary, followed and the work be-
gan by Mr.. Stewart reading the IA
nous report DR.. Wroth made at the
last meeting of the city council as
! chairman of the street committee.
I After reading the report Mr.. Stewart
| proceeded to dissect it, pointing out
the weak parts. Mr.. Stewart did not
spare Dr. Wroth in the least In those
parts of the report that referred 10
/ Iron avenue and the acequia which
! traverses the eastern part of the city
DR.. Wroth's report safd that the trou-
BILE on Iron avenue had existed for
fifteen years and It also said that the
trouble had existed since the late
washout. II further said that the
acequia had been cut, letting the
water into the railroad yards. and
