climbs steep boonton Hlll.

Roland Mayer drove his eighteen
horsepower Buick car to Boonton re-
Gently for the purpose of climbing
School street hill, which is a twenty
one per cent grade and is considered
one of the steepest hills in the state.
After looking the machine over and
loading up with gasoline, the attempt
was made and to the surprise of many
lookers-on the car made the hill with
much ease. Only one other car has
ever been known to have climbed this
rough cobbled street. Mayer had his
chauffeur and friend in the car with
him when the ascent was made.

It is passing strange that a one-time
politician who aspired to be Boss
and who, by the grace of those in a
position to assist him, secured a lu-
crative Office in the New York Custom
House in which he couldn't make
good" should assume to teach the Re
publicans of Morris Co. how to vote at
the coming primaries. If my memory
serves me right Mr.. Comfy is back
number and has been since he was
forced to resign his position. His trou-
bles began when he claimed to know
more than his superiors, and now, be-
cause the so-called county machine
with all the Kings horses and all
the Kings men could not place Hump
ty Dumpty (Comly) where he was
again." he "squealed" and became a
.reformer," Lord save the mark!
What do you think of that? Alas, poor
Yorick! How extremely sad it is to
find an individual, bereft of office, of
honors, of sense,-of everything in
fact, inveighing against what, in his
distorted mind, he calls the Bosses" !"
He even forgets, in his mad fancies,
that he promised to support Mr.. Mills
for the Office of County Clerk.
And speaking of County Clerks, re-
minds me that no matter what Mr..
Comfy thinks or says about Uncle Dan,
every lawyer and every judge in the
county, in fact every person having
business to transact with the clerks
office, knows that to Mr. Voorhees,
more than to any other person is due
the credit Of having made it the model
Office of the State.
Yours,
Adv. WILLIAM H. THOMPSON.
