MARTIN is IGNORED
ssecsa, to tho EVENING NEWS.


Trenton, Jan. 12;-The fine poll
tical hand Of the regular republicans
Is seen in the arrangement of the
assembly committees as announced
today by Speaker Prince. None of
the important committee posts are
given to the New Idea" members.
'Assemblym Martin, the Essex
New Idea" leader, is left off the
Judiciary Committee entirely and
does not even get single chairman
ship. Martin is a lawyer, an aggres-
sive parliamentarian, and has been
called the fire eater" because Of his
strenuous fighting qualities.
Martin was candidate for the
chairnlanship of the Judiciary Com
mittee. and last year was the repub-
lican floor leader. This year with
the regulars determined to ride in
the saddle he gets practically moth
ing.
Leader Lewis is made head of the
Judiciary Comm ittee, and H. Stacey
Smith, a regular republican member
from Essex, gets the important post
of head of the Committee on NUM-
cipal Corporations. The chairman
ship of the important Railroads and
Canals Committee goes to Assembly
man Gibbs, Davy Baird republican
of Camden county and the dean of
the House.
Pierce. of Union county, who was
talked of as head of the Judiciary
Committee before Lewis insisted on
being placed there, got the leader
ship of the Committee on Revision
of Laws.
The only chairmanships that go
to the New Idea" men are Colgate,
of Essex, for the Militia Committee;
Hines, for the Public Health.

For Police Call System.
The council passed a resolution,
regarding the police call system,
that special committee be appoint
ed to ada six fiashlight and bell sta
tions at cost of not over $500 each.
Messrs. Cannon and Voorhees, said

cost about $50 each.
The clerk reported the lease of the
new fire house at $12.50 a month

the six new members of Garfield Hose

the case of d. ]. M. Bachman, whose
expulsion was not approved by the
fire committee recently because it
was not thought that he had had a
hearing. The company's reply stated
that there had evidently been a mis-
understanding between the council
and the company. A copy of the
charges was enclosed. They alleged
that Bachman had not deported him
self In the fire house as he should. It
was declared that he was given two
chances for a hearing, but failed to
appear.

WAYS TO
GIVE AID
Committee Named by Mayor
in Earthquake Relief
Holds Meeting.
ASK BIG CONCERNS
FOR CONTRIBUTIONS

A meeting of the relief committee
appointed by the mayor on December
81, to secure donations for the earth
quake sufferers in Italy, was held at
city hall last night. Mayor Bollsch-
weller explained that it had been
called at the suggestion of several
members.
Ways and means for raising funds
were discussed and, on motion of c.
d. Snedeker, seconded by c. P. Con-
very, 1t was decided to send a postal
to each of the thirty-five members of
the committee and ask them to de-
posit as soon as possible whatever do
nations they had secured, also their
own contributions In any of the three
local banks designated by the mayor
as repositories.
The advisability of asking the large
concerns in this city to contribute was
also spoken of and on motion of G. p.
Convery, the matter was placed in
the hands of the mayor who will
send letter to each company, ask
ing for a subscription.
Many of the large factories in this
city have their main offices in New
York and have therefore contributed
to the New York fund. The commit
tee suggested that they should have
divided their donations between this
and that city. Treasurer Harry Con-
ard reported that about 5000 had
been received by him to date.
Mayor Bollschweiler made it clear
that all money secured through the
relief committee would be sent
through the Red Cross. Rev. James
L. Lancaster, vice president of the
New Jersey State Branch of the Red
Gross, was present.
1t was brought out that the church
es and many societies here were rails
ing money for the fund and the COM
mittee is elated over the interest be-
ing shown in the movement.
The members of the committee who
attended the meeting, which was ad-
journed shortly after 8 o'clock were:
Mayor Bollschweiler, William H.
Griswold, G. P. Convery, Peter Floer-
sch, Harry Conard, c. D. Snedeker,
IS. R. Riddlestorffer, Fritz Hoyler,
Father Galassi and John Pfeiffer.
They adjourned to meet at the call
of the chair.
More Contributions.
Treasurer Conard announced this
morning the following additional do
nations.

funds.
Fourth.-Cenviction Of crime
Surely there can be no objection tc
such a power as this for such causes
as these.
The governor and other constitu.
tional officers may be impeached and
removed from ONCE. A senator or
member of the general assembly may
be expelled and his offlce vacated by
his associates. but there Is no way
now, except be resign, to get a statu-
tory Official out OF Office, even after
conviction Of crime.
Surely this cannot be thought to be
right by any reasonable person.
County Boards of Taxation.
So far as know. no reasonable ex.
cuse exists for the further continuance
of the county boards for the equaliza-
ton Of taxes. They cost the taxpay-
ers Of the state and counties about
$12o, 900 per year. II they ever had
any useful purpose, which l doubt,
they have served 1t, and their further
continuance can only be justified
upon the low and absolutely indefensi-
BILE ground that places are provided
for eighty -four persons to draw sal
aries from the public treasury which
are not earned. If these county boards
are abolished provision can be made
for board or body in each county with
power to fix the tax rate and to equal
ize taxes by a simple method Of proce-
dure and at small expense. All the
other duties of county board can be
east upon the state board for the
equalization Of taxes.
Department 81 Corporations.
The creation Of the department OF
corporations, In accordance with the
recommendation OF the commission or
the revision Of the corporation laws In
its report Of last winter, is strongly
urged.
New Jersey should continue and, Il
possible, broaden her past policy as to
the organization Of corporations. They
came to us because Of the conservative
settled character OF our Judiciary and
the fairness Of our past legislative
treatment. Criticism OF our corpora
ton laws by citizens Of other states
has about ceased except as te few
