A Busy Place in Sussex County.


One Of the busy places in Sussex
County is Oakland Mills, near Lincoln.
Is. G. Cubbage, the proprietor, con
tracted early in the spring with the
Hartz Machinery Company Of Phila-
delphia to install new flour mill con.
sisting of the latest improved and most
up-to-date machinery, and one that
would make -four equal to any mill In
the State. About three weeks ago the
company completed their work, and
the new mill has been running on full
time since it started. This mill will be
run entirely under the personal super
eTvision Of Mr.. Cubbsge, who has been
in the milling business for twenty nine
) ears, and is well known in the milling
circles through Delaware, Maryland,
Virginia, New York, New Jersey and
Pennsylvania. Mr.. Cubbage intends
to make all the products Of Oakland
Mills to compare favOrably with his
famous brand If buckwheat flour. A
year ago he installed new buckwhest
throughout and he now has
the largest buck wheat mill in the State
and the best equipped milling plant in
the county.

CITIZENS DEMAND
THAT COUNCIL
MAKE GOOD
PROSPECT OF THAT
DESIRED UNIFORM GRADE
Understood That City Fathers
Will Disregard Expressed
Wishes of People Regarding
University Road,

AS far as can be learned it looks
as # the city council intends to cheer
fully disregard the expressed wishes
of the citizens Of Albuquerque who
have asked that the city bring that
part of the university road in the city
limits to the uniform grad establish
ed by the county to the University, 1t
Is understood that Contractor w. IL.
Springer has received Instructions to
put the grader on the road today or
tomorrow, which means that the city's
work is to be surfaced off without
further excavation. This will leave
an unsightly bump in the grade just
at the city line and destroy the entire
scenic effect of the splendid highway
established by the county under the
able supervision of w. II. Gillenwater,
road supervisor.
II believe the attention of the coun~
ell and the people should be called
Ia the matter at once" said a proml
nent citizen yesterday. \ Il recent
mass meeting attended BY some 200
citizens it was voted that the council
be asked to conform to the grade es-
.tablished by the county.
During the conference on good
roads hcre last week attended by the
governor, a committee Of citizens ex-
pressed the sense of the mass meet
ing and received assurances from
members of the city council that they
would comply with the wishes Of the
people and bring the road to uniform
grade.
h governor expressed the en-
phatic opinion that this should be
done. ] understand that the major
ity Of the aldermen are in favor of
making the city work conform to that
OF the county. However, it is gem
orally understood that the mayor and
the chairman of the street committee
are blocking the establishment in spite
OF the wishes of the people of the city.
The county has built a magnificent
foot roadway from the city
line to the University at great expense.
The city recently voted $4,000 for a
thirty foot roadway with Il steep
grade that practically spoils the work
the county. | understand thai the
last balance reported in the city treas
ury is about SEQ, 600. The people who
nave paid that money in taxes have
for a uniform grade on the Cen
tral venue extension and If the city
mas the money it can hardly refuse
aecedc to the wishes of the people.
believe prompt action should be tax
IN - the citizens to find out where
the council is going to stand on this
matter"
1t is also stated that the city is hay

he road hauled at a cost of 80 cent;

'ould be disposed Of in the Highlands
40 cents a load while the whole
works is charged up to the $1,000
