Since the old van debt las paid off the State has had n bonded debt and
the Legislature. except in certain great emergencies, is prohibited by the Con-
sttuton from contracting any debt that in addition to existing debts, Will
exceed the sum of 100000 That prohibition vas adopted in 1874 when 100000
looked to the New Jersey legislator as big as the State House The Constitution
leaves it to the people to decide at tn. polls whether any bonded deb shall be
created in ordinary times and the disposition of the people is always hostile to
such a step. But State projects of large Importance and undoubted public utility
coming up. an they cannot be financed by the state without borrowing the

A PUBLIC HALL FOR NEWARK.

The public need for a spacious hall centrally located has been illustrated
again in the quest for al auditorium large enough in which o hold the services
in celebration Of the centennial Of Abraham Lncom's birth. The First Regf-

acoustics. and is better adapted in that respect Tor a brass band than the human
voice. The Kruger Auditorium is spacious but inconvenenty situated for a
large parto the population. AS this hall vas OF obtanabh. the best the ON

In various portions OF the world men
are today making trial flights In beav-

while new record is established. One
man has just outhown the Wrights in
point OF altitude. And Frenchman,
attempting to fly across the English
channel, made a twelve-mile start, at
enormous height, when his engine
played out. He dropped into the ocean
and was rescued only to declare that
he will make another trial.
Airship news has come to be one of

and reelection. He served when the
salary was merely nominal and he is
