COME AND SEE
THE BAD SPOTS
Civic Association VIII Give Il
lustrated Lecture on Nor
riStown's Eyesores.
HOWARD ]. COLE TO SPEAK

The Morristown Civic association
has determined that the best way OF
bringing home to the attention OF the
citizens Of Morristown the real facts
concerning the condition OF the town
and what ought to be done to improve
it's appearance, is by means OF lantern
slides showing particular eye-sores
which ought to be remedied. Thls
will be done at special meeting OF
the entire association TO be held IN
the Lyceum on the evening OF April
20, at eight O'Clock punctually.
A portion of the evening will also be
devoted to a consideration OF the con-
dition of all streets and to talk by
Street Commission Cole as to the vari-
Gus methods of possible Improvement,
and the advantages and cost OF each
particular method.
II would have been impossible for
the association to select two topics
better calculated to promote the gen.
eral interest of our citizens at this
time than those above specified, to the
consideration of which the evening
will be principally devoted.
II is the intention Of the association
to conduct a continuous and aggres-
sive campaign for the betterment OF
conditions in Morristown, and to en-
deayor to bring home to every citizen
the fact that the improyementof the
town is not matter for the Civic as
sociation or the town authorities alone
to consider, but is matter to which
every man, woman and child Oh the
community should devote his or her
personal attention. The motto OF the
association is not What 1T is doing
for Morristown, but, what are YOU
doing for Morristown.s Its aim is to
make the citizens Of the town, not
critics, but doers of things.
Pursuant to its general policy, the
meeting will not be confined TO mem
bers Of the association, but every man,
woman and child interested in the
towns welfare and improvement is
earnestly requested to attend. From
the indications which have come to
our notice full meeting seems as
Sured.
Those contemplating attending are
requested to be in their seats punctu-
ally at eight O'Clock.

mission of the board of freeholders at

Nifty the county against damage to the

A. communication from Court JUS
tice Charles w. Parker, who presides
over the courts in Morris, Bergen and
Somerset counties, notified the board
that it was necessary to have stenog-
rapher take down the doingS Of the
criminal trials in the county as we'll
as the civil trials. He asserted that
when cases are taken to a higher court
the absence of a stenographic his report
of the proceedings of the lower court

Line Between Morris Plains and Mt.
Tabor Soon TO be Open.
Officials of the Morris County Trac-
tion Co. assert that the line between
Morris Plains and Mt. Tabor should
be ready for use by July lst. Cars
would then be running between Nor
ristown and Dover and Lake Hopat-
cong. A large force Of men are now
at work grading the line, having
worked from Morris Plains for a mile
towards Mt. Tabor. They are now
engaged in making big cut through
the hill opposite the Sire place.
Though the line is to be trolley road
almost as much care is being taken to
keep the grade low as would be the
case if it were to be steam road.
Feed wires have been strung from the
company's power plant at Dover along
the right-of-way to Morris Plains and
thence to Morristown.
The company is not yet ready to ap-
ply for a franchise from the Morris
town board of aldermen to continue
its line from the present terminus in
front of the police headquarters
building around the park and
down Morris street to the Lackawanna
railroad. Though many consents of
the abutting property owners have
been secured the company needs sew
eral more and until these are secured
will not apply for franchise.
The line from Denville to Boonton
is being pushed and this too will prob
ably be in operation by July 1st The
line is graded for long distance and
$50 laborers are working on the Dem
vile end, while about one-third as
many are working from the Boonton
end. Less than mile of grading re-
mains to be done. Track has been
laid for a considerable distance from
Denville while the poles have been
erected almost the entire length Of
the line.

GOVERNOR vEToES - BILLS

Governor Fort on Tuesday night af-
fixed his signature to the last chapter
of the laws OF 1910, and the work of
the l34th session Of the legislature
really came to end. In a record year
of executive slaughter the governor
has vetoed sixty-eight bills in all and

the house, 222 passed both house and
senate, and were delivered to Governor
Fort, $50 or more than sixty per cent.
Of the house measures falling of pass
age.
A total of $40 bills were introduced
in the senate, and Of these 1866 were
passed by senate and house and de-
livered to the governor, 1874 meeting
defeat or being killed in committee,
about fifty-tive per cent of the total.
The average number of bills put
through by each senator is, therefore,
about seven, although the governor
vetoed SO many that the number per
senator actually becoming laws is
about six. The average number OF
bills passed for each assemblyman is
about four, while the average number
of house bills that have become laws
is about three for each assemblyman
