AGAINST SPECIAL
ELECTION ON LIGHT
PLANT IN ORANGE
Majority of Council Vote to Lay
on Table Resolution at
Lively Session.

As d result of differences over the
question of street lighting plans in
Orange there was a sudden resolution
to have a special election on March 16
to pass on the question of a municipal
lighting plant under provisions of the
Jones act of 1906, presented to the
Orange Common Council last night.
1t was voted down. The councilmen
had an informal gathering previous TO
the session. when Chairman Joseph A.
Birkholz, OF the street lighting COM
mittee, Intercepted concerning the
newest proposition from the Public
Service Corporation, which wants an
other contract for street lighting.
Chairman Birl0holz, likewise leader of
the majority on the floor, did not
answer the queries satisfactorily, as he
did not consider the matter Is In. shape
for immediate publicity, while satisfied
thS Council is on the eve of making a
real bargain, and as he failed to take
President William A. Calhoun into his
confidence the presiding officer left his
seat at h regular session of the Coun-
Gil and placed Councilman Charles A.
LIE Master in the chair,
MI. Calhoun had called for a report
from the various Council committees,
but when the street committee was
reached and no report from Chairman
Birkholz was forthcoming. Calhoun
took LIE Masters place on the floor and
offered a resolution for a special cleo
tiun. Councilman Cheetham Joined in
moving the adoption Of the resolution.
Councilman Bergman, member of the
street committee, and its chairman last
year, offered a motion to refer the reso-
luton to the street committee. Coun-
Gilman Heberling seconded the motion,
but Calhoun rose to a point of order.
MrS Bergman Followed his other mo-
ton with one to lay the resolution on
the table. Leader Birklolz started to
speak on the matter and Calhoun
called attention to the fact hat a mo-
ton to lay on the table was not debat-
able, and Councilman lie Master put the
motion, which was carried by one vote.
The vote to lay OF the table was:
Ayes-Councilmen Bergman, Birkholz,
Bolan, Finneran, Heberling, lie Master
and Smith. Noes-Calhoun, Coleman,
Dolan, Kelley, Murray and Cheetham.

$4,000 OFFER OF LAND
AND BUILDING ACCEPTED
Announcement Comes from
Washington-0ther Impor-
tant Buildings Near.

After three years efforts by Con-
gresham r. Wayne Parker. in con-
junction with Postmaster John A.. Aek-
erman. Orange will have an up-tosdate
postofice. Word was today sent from
Washington to James A. Clarke. Of
Orange, a real estate operator, agent
for the property at the southeasterIy
corner of Main street and Lincoln ave-
nue., Orange, that his offer of the land
and building for $4,000 had been ac-
eepted and the news was Immediately
sent to Postmaster Alderman. That
the property would be secured was
~forecasted by THE EVENING STAR
several weeks ago, following inforn1a-
ton that the inspector from Washing
ton, D. G., representing the govern
ment had recommended the purchase
of the land.
The movement of big enterprises up
Main street toward the West Orange
line has begun in earnest. Coinciaenr
with b decision to locate the big
~postofice at Lincoln avenne wer1
comes of the Lackawanna railroads
plans for a big station adjoining the
new High School of the city. on the
opposite side Of the street. Mr.. Clarke
last night offered the Orange Common
Council the property adjoining the
High School, the homestead of the late
Laurence T. Fell. Mayor of Orange,
and now occupied by his daughters,
and the tract west of the Fell home,
making a total frontage OF 100 feet, for
u-e at a City Hall. The price fixed
was $50. 900. The offer went TO com
lnittee. The Fell property has a front
age OF ffty-ive feet n the property
next door, owned by George Hall, OF
South Orange, has a 45-foot frontage.
Two houses are on the land. There is
a depth of $50 feet, with land from the
rear OF the High School, and Mr..
Clarke suggested this added property
might be utilized for school purposes
TO meet the growing needs of h city.
Mr.. C1ark's letter from the govern
ment announced that as he had named
the price limit Of the appropriation he
must pay for executing the deeds. He
must clear off the buildings from the
ground within thirty days. This will
result in the Boys Club of Orange
losing its present home, as it is I'M
likely the old structures will permit Of
moving.
The lot the government has pur-
chased is 14o feet by 15o feet. 1t is
located in the population centre OF
Orange and West Orange, where the
p~ostofice distribution takes place. The
city must now get another appropria-
tion for a building.
