Official Talks to Morristowp
Mems Club on Civic Affairs.

MORRISTOWN, May 19.-That mu-
inequalities should have the right to do
things necessary in the way of I'M
provements without recourse to the
Legislature was urged by Mayor
Charles>J. Fisk, of Plainfield, in an nd
dress last night before the Mems Club,

That there We're too many laws re-
garding municipalities was his opinion,
and he told OF the defeat by the Pub
lie Service Corporation OF a bill intro
Guced at the last session OF the
Legislature permitting municipalities
greater latitude in making improve
r1ents. The Legislature should let the
municipalities collect it's taxes and ex-
rend them as it p~leases, said the
speaker.
"What we want in this State,' he
continued, lis a state auditing depart
ment and the adoption of a uniform
system of accounts by the municipali-
ties"
He further asserted that the Legis-
lature should limit the amount of debt,
fixing a limit for the municipalities
bond issue n then permitting the
municipalities to incur that amount
for any one thing it wished.

TRENTON, May 19.-Governor Fort
made by Colonel Samuel d. Dickinson,

tory duty now existing, even though
there is no express penalty provided
for such failure
II desire further to call attention to
the fact that the Governors letter,
practically directing the secretary of
state to violate the express provisions
of a statute unless there be some pen-
atty attached for such violation, was
written six days after he had given
out his famous interview on Atlantic
City and had penned his letters to
the officials of that city and county
demanding that the law be enforced at
all hazards-a public demand on the
officials of Atlantic county to enforce
the law, a private demand on the sec
rotary of state to violate the law"

I A BOOK OF VERSE J
BY JERSEY PASTOR. 5

The personal note is to be found in the
verses Of Fred Clare Baldwin, whose
book. THE Life Melodious,' comes
from the press of the Chronicle Pub
fishing Company, of Orange. While
there is little of poetic merit in this
work, there is a sincerity In the verses
to be found here that Is worthy of
praise.
The author, who is an East Orange
Clergyman. has classified his poems
under five heads. These are: Tributes
OF Memory and Love" Sentiments Of
tho Seasons Songs of Service" "A
North Jerseynlan's Philosophy" and
.Future-ward Strand" From Songs
of Service the following is taken:
A SONG OF LABOR.
Let the good man preach
And the wise man teach,
And the minstrel sing his song;
In the worlds wide reach
There's a place for each
To help the world along.
Let the kind nan cure
Both rich and poor
For a fee more dear than gold;
Let the just man plead
The rights decreed.
In statutes new and old.
Let the forge-man sing
Till the rafters ring,
And the red blaze roars with glee-
Till the dull world knows
How his honest blows
Will shape its destiny!
Ger perfumed soil
Let the ploughman toll
With buoyant heart and bold;
While the day doth sleep
Let the shepherd keep
His watch DER the slumbering fold.
when comes the need
That patriots bleed,
So right man vanquish wrong;
On an open feid
Let the warrior WELD
A weapon true and strong.
Or great. or small,
There's a work for all
And all some work should do,
But knaves and fools
Must drop the tools
That belong to craf~tsmepHtrue!
The book concludes with 1.-THE Heri-
tage of the Church." a poem that wax
read at Morristown on April 4. 1907, at
the celebration OF the completion of the
first half-century Of the Newark ON
ference.
