THE BAR o NEWARK BAY N NAVIGATION.

The War Department can procure the removal o rebuilding o he Gem
trail Railroad bridge across Newark Bay, as it has exclusive jurisdiction over
navigation. The Improvement is essential to the carrying tut of the plans
for giving deep-water approaches to Newarks docks and wharves and to
complement the work now being done by the Federal government in deep
enng the channel and bay. 1t was a just demand that ws made to the
War Department yesterday by a repre- sentative delegation of Newark chi-
zens, a demand that cannot be pigeonholed. The question lies between the
great commercial interests Of a million of people and thu convenience of a
railroad company, which, in fact, broke faith in the construction and main
tenance Of the present bridge WHICH was not ito interfere with navigation

II INITIATIVE OF A PUBLIC WORK.

A fair start on the great project of making Newark an important seaport
and giving to the city ownership in Zee of wharves and docks, that will in the
near future be of value equal to the Jersey City and Manhattan water fronts

nnnary work can be done in the way of acquiring the necessary riparian
land. 1t is possibe that the Legislature will abolish grants in fee of riparian
lands, but that step will not interfere with the enterprise. a lease of the
lands to be acquired from the State will be renewable at long periods, and
the state would not be hard on the municipality in its terms Land purchased

Get Toeether

AS the time for holding the county
convention draws nearer we wish to call
the attention of the party managers to
the fact that great deal of dissatisfac-
ton exists among the voters of the south
half Of the county because of the made
quate representation which they have
thus far been able to obtain in the
county offices. Considering the fact
that probably two thirds of the total
county vote will be polled from the
south half in the coming election their
dissatisfaction does not appear unreason-
able.
We think that if this matter is ap-
preached in the right spirit, no one sec
tion of the county trying to hog the
whole show, the republicans of the coun-
ty should be able to affect an arrange
ment whereby all squabbles will be cut
out and harmonious party vote cast
for the whole ticket.
This matter should receive the atten-
tion OF all republicans desirous of the
success of the ticket, as for several years
past it has always come to the front as a
source OF discord in the party, fact of
which the democrats have not been slow
to take the advantage in getting their
men into office.
