THIS AMENDMENT
AGAINST

Persons desiring to vote for the
amendments, or any of them. will
scratch out the word "against" in
each case, and vice versa.
The first amendment strikes out
paragraph 10, of Section VII, of Arti-
Gle IN, providing that the Legislature
may vest Chancery powers, so far as
the foreclosure of mortgages is con-
-cerned, in the Circuit or Common
Pleas Courts. This is to pave the way
for the following amendment reform
ing and simplifying the State and
County Courts.
The second amendment changes par
agraph 10, of Article V, so as to create
a new Board of Pardons.
The third amendment is the one re-
forming the courts.
The fourth amendment provides
that the members of the Legislature
: shall receive an annual compensation
of 81 1000, with an extra allowance of
one-third OF this salary to the Presi-
dent'of the Senate and Speaker OF the
House. The present compensation is
$500, with the extra allowance Of one
third to the presiding officers.
The fifth amendment covers the
various changes for the separation OF
the state elections from the munich
pal elections and for the election of
Assemblymen by districts instead OF
by the county at large. The state
elections are to be held each two years
beginning in November 1910, while
municipal elections are to be held each
two years beginning in November,
191i. Thus the two will always alter
nate and the issues OF the two will
never clash as they frequently do.
The terms Of the Governor and Sena-
tors are made four years, respectively,
instead of three years, as now. The
term of the Assemblymen is increas-
ed to two years, those of the County
Clerks and SurrogateS, six years; and
those of the Sheriffs and Coroners,
four years. These amendments if
adopted take effect February j. 1910.
Senate No, 1913 takes effect when the
amendments become effective. The
amendments abolish justices of the
peace as constitutional officers, but
the Hillery bill continues them as
statutory officers to retain all their
present Offices and powers, and their
successors are to be chosen as hereto
fore.
Under this bill the salary OF the
Chief Justice, the President Justice
and the Chancellor is fixed at SlI 600,
the same as now received by the Chief
Justice and Chancellor The salary of
the Associate Justices is made SIC, 900
a year, the same as now received by
the Associate Justices and the Vice
Chancellors.

Horatio q. King, of Brooklyn, taking
for his subject "The Last Days of the
Rebellion" being largely personal
reminiscence. Band music, recita-
tion and selections by quarette may
also be included in the program.
IL is probable that the Morristown
band will be engaged to furnish the
instrumental music for the day.
The expenses of last years obser-
vance amounted to S446, towards
which 800 was contributed by the
board of aldermen. The treasury OF
