The bill of Senator Hillery for the
prevention of drunkenness, which the
Governor signed last week, is one of
the numerous interesting measures
that got through the Legislature in
the closing week
The Hillery act Is a brand new idea
in New Jersey, and provides:
THAT in every municipality of this
State, the governing body thereof shall
appoint three reputable citizens, resi-
dent in said municipality, to be known
as board of protectors, which shall
Investigate the causes of drunkenness
in the municipality for which they are
appointed, and whenever it satisfac-
torily appears to said board that any
person residing in, or who frequents
said municipality, is an habitual
drunkard or is likely to become a
drunkard by the use of intoxicating
liquors, said board shall, by notice
in writing mailed to every person Ii
censed to sell intoxicating liquors in
said municipality, direct all persons,
SO aforesaid licensed to sell intoxi-
eating liquors in said municipality,
to desist from either selling or giving
intoxicating liquors to any such per-
son so determined to be an habitual
drunkard or likely to become drunk
ard.
Any person who knowingly shall
sell or give any Intoxicating liquor
to any person, so as aforesaid deter
mined to be an habitual drunkard or
likely to become a drunkard, after no.
tice to desist from the sale or gift of
Intoxicating liquors to any such per-
son, as aforesaid, either directly or
through a third person. shall, for the
first offense, be liable to penalty of
fifty dollars to be recovered in an
action of debt by said Board of Pro-
tectors; and for second offense shall
be liable to a penalty of one hundred
dollars, to be recovered in like man
ner; and for third offense shall be
liable to a penalty of two hundred doll
lars, to be recovered in like manner:
and upon third violation said Board
of Protection shall report said fact
to the board, person or body having
the right to grant license for the sale
of intoxicating liquor in said munici
palitv; whereupon said board, person
or body having the right to grant such
license may revoke the license of the
person SO selling or giving intoxicat-
ing liquor in violation of the provis-
ions of this act perpetually or for
stated period of time"
1t is needless to say that if Wood
bury City Council acts under this mea-
sure and appoints a Board of Protect
ors the actions of the Board will
arouse lively interest.

bun has started an investigation into
the serving of liquors at the dinner
recently given in the Morristown
school building by the Harvard Club
of New Jersey, in honor of DR.. Charles

versity. It is alleged that wines were
sold at the tables and money paid to
walters in violation of the law. This
is denied and it is explained that
what money the walters collected at
the tables was for cigars. There was
wine served at the dinner and plenty

Automobile Laws.

The automobile people received
many concessions from the past Legis-
lature They are:
Senate 325, Mr. Frelin ghusen-P Per-
mits non resident automobilists to
come into the State for eight consecu-
days, or for four periods of two days
each, in any calendar year upon the
payment of a fee of 81 for a certificate
A license may be obtained upon writ
ten application, and in case the non
resident motorist is properly regis
tered in his own State he need not
take out drivers license here.
Senate 245, Mr.. Freling nghusen- e-
leases the funds which have been coll
lected from automobile licenses, reg
istration fees and fines, SO that they
can be Immediately used to repair
roads.
Committee substitute for Senate 1872,
Mr.. Bradley-Fixes 25 miles an hour
as the maximum speed limit for auto
mobiles in the open country where the
houses are on an average more than
100 feet apart, and reduces the fees
allowed justices of the peace, consta-
bles and witnesses. The bill also plac-
es the court costs upon the complain
ant in case the judgement is reversed
upon appeal. Heretofore the speed
limit has been 20 miles an hour
Assemblyman Colgate's bill requiring
all vehicles to carry lights at night
was approved. This was another of
the measures advocated by the auto
mobilists.

THE LEGISLATURE 5 RECORD
(From the Newark News. Ind)


The record of the one hundred and
thirty-third session of the Legislature
has now been made up and the law
makers have gone home to face their
constituents. The Republican mem
bers can point with pride" to certain
of their actions. They can tell the
people that they passed:
A bill for the revaluation of rail-
road property
A moderate employers liability bill.
A bill requiring that members of
party committees be chosen at the reg
ular primaries held under State aus
pices.
But right there they must stop re-
counting the good things they did, for
that contemplates the list. They can
not boast that they settled the States S
financial difficulties, for that would re
quire them to admit also that they
failed to provide for economies by
cutting off useless offices and eliminat-
ing salaries for political workers. But
the people will not forget this fact,
nor will they fail to remember that
the record of the Legislature includes
the slaughtering of measures calling
for:
A public utilities commission.
Direct primary extension.
Ballot reform.
Grand jury reform.
The abolition of county board of tax
alton and other useless commissions.
The removal of delinquent officials
by the Governor.
A board of control for State insti-
tutions.
The repeal of the Hillery mximum
tax law.
Appeals from assessments levied
by the State Board of Assessors.
Equitable bank stock taxation
The prohibit ion of child labor at
night.
The prevention of minors from Wis
iting, unaccompanied, theatres and
dance halls.
The Brady civil damage bill
There are other measures that might
be added to this list of sins of omis-
sion, but those named are sufficient to
give the people an excellent idea of
how their representatives as a whole
shirked their duties during the four
teen weeks of the session just closed.
The reason for this almost barren
ACSioidtlNC SC0SiOA 10 EAIlOWjl nC
Guardians must accept the RESPONSE
bility. The blame cannot be placed
upon the shoulders of Governor Fort.
The Chief Executive of theState fought
manfully to bring about the redemp-
tion of the pledges made by his party
platform and by himself on the stump
But he made the mistake of believing
that he could secure eventually the
support of the Guardians for con-
siderable part of his program on re-
form. He did not surrender that be-
lief until the very last hours of the
sessions, continuing to hope against
hope that the real leaders" of the par
ty woud see the error of their ways
and the danger in which they were
placing their polite al organization
Had the Governor from the first al
lied himself with the independent
members of the Legislature, those
who had shown by their actions that
they were favorable to his program,
the outcome might have been different.
Still, if it had not, the Governor would
have been spared his present hum
iliation.
The close of the legislative session
indicated just how much interest was
taken in real reform by the lawmakers
The last act of the Assembly was to
regulate the shooting of rabbits, and
the final work of the Senate dealt
with the growing of oysters.

Ocean City is to fight the venders
and are asking real fees for peddlers.
A dispatch says
An ordinance has been introduced
in Council to govern the fees of mer-
chantile licenses and regulate the busi
ness licenses. BY the provisions of
this ordinance, venders of hokey poky
and ice cream cones using a wheel
barrow or pushcart in which to con-
vey their wares must pay license of
s25 each. If they can afford the use
of a wagon, they have to pay a license
of $40 Peddlers with packs, baskets
and the like will have to part with $40
Travelling musicians must pay to the
tune of $25.
1t will cost travelling photographers
$25 each before they can take pic
ture. Solicitors, soliciting agents, in
stalment agents and statesmen selling
to others than the proprietors of
stores and shops must disgorge $40.

drinks or corked goods are offered for

Advertising a CITY.

. Trenton has had under discussion
for some time plans for advertising
a city, says the Elizabeth Journal.
All kinds of suggestions have been
made-buttons to wear on your coat,
Trenton colors with catch phrases,
booklets, a Trenton week of pub
licity, city museum containing all
kinds of photographs and samples all
good manufacturers locally 1t was
pointed out the other evening, at a
meeting to consider the question, that
at present Kansas City firm is nego-
tiating with a local sign painter for
signs 200 feet long and Is feet high,
to be erected along the railroad be-
tween Philadelphia and Jersey City,
in order to advertise the industrial
advantages of Kansas City. 1T is said
that the western city contemplates
spending about $4,000 in advertising
that city in the East.
Probably the best way ever discover
ed to advertise city-that is, to call
it's advantages to the attention of
people who are looking for a place to
make a permanent home and to manu-
facturerS who want a location for a

buttons to pin on your coat. 1t is a
perfectly simple matter to prepare a
boom booklet. But it has never been
an easy matter to govern a city well;
and strange as it may seem to the pro-
moter of booming features the city
ably handled financially with strong
civic spirit and some natural advan-
tages seldom needs any special ad-
vertising. Western cities which have
claimed big results from press agents
would have grown anyway. Nothing
could stop them except internal polit-
ical rows, graft, slovenly streets, in
sufficient school Accommodations and
population which does not care. The
first thing to do is to get something to
adyertise-a reasonable tax rate, high
financial standing, the ablest men in
public office, unmistakable evidence
of the existence of law and order, etc.
Somehow city possessing sources of
such advantages, many of which cost
nothing except eternal vigilance on
the part of the people. is heard Of
grows, prospers, finds itself, as. the
phrase goes.
