Swedcsboro Council Surrenders.

In the Swedesboro meadow case
Justice &. G. Garrison allow ed a writ
OF certiorari to remove into the SUI
preme Court the action of the Bor-
ough Council apJropriating the sum
of $500 for strengthening Raccoon
Creek Since the allowance of the
writ, Council has permitted judgment
to be entered against it, and has re-
turned to the Borough treasury the
$500 and costs.
This case has been exhadstiyely
treated in these columns by writers
from that borough, and in all that
has been written and printed we re-
call no insinuation of personal purfidy.
Council made the mistake of ex-
pending public moneys. for public
purposes, without complying with
law in such case made and provided.
and when the scheme was attacked
by citizens who did not agree as to
the desirability of the expenditure,
they fell victims of the law. We re-
fer to this experience of Swedesboro
Council in the hope that the lesson
there taught may be learned by legis-
alive bodies generally, and that legal
methods may hereafter attend all
expenditures of public moneys.

DISASTROUS FIRE
At PAULSBORO.
Loss About $4,000 Insurance $500

With high wind sweeping up FROM
the river the alarm of fire that rang
out in Paulsboro at 1910 last Monday
sent a chill through every property
owner. All knew that unless the
flames were promptly controlled a
good portion of the town would go
up in smoke
The response to the alarm was
prompt and heroic. The alarm came
from the home of Leonard PratZ. on
Chestnut street. near the railroad sta
ton. Adjoining Pratz's residence is
a new building erected as a bowling
alley and dance hall. The material
OF the roof of the bowling alley was
tar paper. Mr.. Pratz was warming
up some pitch on the kitchen range
with which to repair the roof when it
boiled over, and took fire. He used
water to extinguish this fire, with the
result that the flames spread to the
wood work, and in minute the house
was in flames, threatening the town.
Five hundred yards distant. with eight
or ten houses intervening, is ST. James
Protestant Episcopal Church, one of
the Oldest of that denomination in So
jersey. On the high wind fire brands
were carried over these houses and
lodged on the shingle roof of this edi-
flee and though great effort was made
to save it, it soon was mass of fame,
and was destroyed. but the valuable
silver service and movable yaluables
were saved. During the progress of
the fire the residences OF w. H Mill
er, Mrs. Clifford, Frank Scott, Mrs.
Sarah Mundy, Fl. ". Miller, ex-AIayor
Hannold's home and barn, Frank
Pratz S shop and Benz Johnsnn's barr
were on fire, but were put out. Of
these w. H. Miller sustained the great
est loss, the damage to furniture and
by fire being about $500.
Leonard Pratz's loss is placed at SO,
SEQ, with an insurance of $4,000, the
church loss at $4,000, with $4,000 in
surance. Mr.. hfiller's loss is fully
covered
When the fire first broke out Wood
bury was called on for help and
Friendship Company with chemical
engine and hook and ladder apparatus
made the five mile run in 20, minutes.
Clarksborc, Ginbstown and the Pow
der works departments arrived about
the same time and all rendered val
liable service.
There is no doubt that the good
work done On roofs in sweeping off
embers as soon as they fell, and good
use of buckets, aVerted great con-
fagration.
Our Paulsboro correspondent gives
great praise to the fire fighters from
this city, who by reason of experience
seemed to he at the right place at the
opportune moment, also Clarksboro
aid Gibbstown.
Camden was called on for help and
had apparatus on fiat cars to go to
the scene, when notified that the fire
was und er control.
Our Paulsboro correspondent says
there were nine lines of hose on one
6 inch water main, and as many pri-
Yate hydrants were open supplying
bucket brigades, the fire pressure was
seriously neutrahzed.
Everybody in Paulsboro is thankful
that the firefghters were so success
full in controlling the situation they
faced, because it was condition, and
not a theory that confronted the bor-
ough.

| The Bell Telephone Co. had a re-
quest to lay conduits for phone wires

Mr.. Kugler to the chair and then stat
ed that no privilege should be granted

The matter whether Washington st.

belongs to the city or is private prop
erty which must be taken by condeln-
nation proceedings. 60

WESTVILLE-NEWBOLD INCORPOR-

There is going to be something do
ing in Newbold and Westville next
Tuesday, May IL, when the incorpora-
tion election will be held. The propo-
sition to be submitted to the voters is
Shall the towns of Westville, Newbold,
South Westville and Victoria, be ANAL

as Westville?
Preliminaries to this election be-
gan last Tuesday when the registry
lists were, revised for the battle Of
ballots. All male inhabitants above
in the State one year and the county
flve months and who are registered,
will be eligible to participate in the
battle of the ballots.
1t is generally conceded. or many
expect, that Westville and South West
vile will cast big majority for in
corporation, and the incorporators
claim that at the Newbold polls
where Victorians and Newboldians
will vote-will also cast safe major
ity for incorporation This claim,
however, raises a laugh from the
antiS
The elections will be conducted by
the regular election officers, those
West of the railroad voting in the fire
house, while the Westviile contingent
will vote at the town ball.
We regret to say that the moon that
shines down on the towns above men-
toned reflects considerable bad blood.
Not all talk tax rates, and sidewalks,
and lights and schools and money, ali
the time, and the feeling is so acute
that full vote is sure to be polled.
The registry lists of the Westyille
side show 240 voters while the New
bod poll is 100.
