Been Visiting in Essex
Fells.

Saying that he was going to return
to the Soldiers Home, Kearny, William
II. Condit, a Civil War veteran, rs
years old, left the home of Dexter Ball,
of Essex Felfs, a week ago today. He
never reached the home and fears are
entertained as to his safety. The New
ark police have been requested by Mrs
Ball to try and locate Condit.
The veteran had spent a fortnight at
the Ball home, and last Wednesday
decided to go back to Kearny. Mr..
Ball put him on a Newark-bound car
and told him to write when he reached
Kearny. Not hearing from the old
man in a reasonable time Ball inquired
of Superintendent Rogers of the Kear-
ny Home and learned that Condit had
never returned. It was then decided 10
institute a search.
Condit is reported as ) feet 6 inches
tall and weighing about III pounds.
His hair and mustache are both gray.

BUSINESS MEN
IN ORANGE WANT
CITY OWNERSHIP
Ask People to Vote on Question
of Municipal Lighting
Plant.
HUGH j. BRADY MAKES
SPEECH ON SUBJECT
Resolutions Passed Asking for a
Hearing Before the
Council.

First of the city organizations to take
up the cudgels for a vote on the ques-
ton of g municipal lighting plant for
Orange is the Orange Business Mems
Improvement Association. 1t has de-
cided to request the Council to give the
public an opportunity to vote on the
municipal proposition under the Jones
act provisions. Hugh j. Brady. for
merly a member of the Council and
vice-president of the association, made
q strong speech favoring the eonstruc-
ton of a municipal lighting plant.
"a municipal lighting plant installed
several years ago in South Norwalk,
Conn, paid for itself soon after its es-
Enlistment" said Mr.. Brady.
1T Is now paying a neat profit. to the
city from the investment. and the tax
payers are getting an extremely low
rate on the electrical current supplied
them. Nearer home We have the
municipal lighting plant at Madison.
where the community has the finest
water supply in the country, and the
electric lighting plant is also strictly
up TO date"
Discussing the arguments for and
against Orange taking up the lighting
question and successfully prosecuting
it as the Council has with its water
plant, Mr.. Brady declared the Common
Council is now apparently divided on
the question of municipal ownership,
and will probably decide to allow the
public to settle the controversy aver the
proposed plant at a special election.
Judge Joseph-B. Bray favored the as
ISOLATION going slow in any contem-
plated attitude on the mooted question,
but the following resolution vas
adopted:
Resolved, That it is the sense of the
Orange Business Mems Improvement
Association that the Common Council
be asked to give the citizens of Orange
all possible information concerning the
question of street lighting and Their
permit the citizens to be heard before
taking any final action on the electric
lighting of the streets.
