FOR NAMES
DAY JUDGE
VIII Preside Over the Newly
Created First District Court
Of Morris County.
SHORT SKETCH OF HIS CAREER

The long looked for appointment of
Oliver K. Day as judge Of the First
District court Of Morris county was
sent to the Senate early Thursday
morning by Governor John Franklin
Fort and short time later was con
tirmed by the senators in executive
session along with the names of
Charles A. Baker and Edward A.
Quayle as members of the Morris
County Tax board. Mr.. Days ap-
pointment was looked for early in the
session but was held us as the point
was made that the law creating the
court did not go into effect until April
1st and that it would be impossible to
appoint him to an office not in exist
ence until that date.
Judge Day will start work as soon as
his commission arrives and he secures
the necessary dockets and stationery.
He will ask the board of freeholders
for the use of the grand jury room in
the court house in which to hold his
court. When the grand jury is using
it he will probably move his court into
the room below occupied by the board

REGISTER MOTOR BOATS.
j. Fred Ranyon receiving Applica-

j. Fred Ranyon Receiving Applica-
tions TO Comply with Law.
Chief Inspector Of Power Boats ].
Fred Runyon has received only a dozen
applications for the registering of mo-
tor boats in this state under the new
law recently passed by the Leeisla-
ture. This law went into effect on
March 18th and everyone since that
time owning an unregistered motor
boat is liable to penalty of from five
to fifty dollars The law provides that
all motor boats must be registered
with the chief inspector of power
boats on inland waters and is similar
TO the law regarding the registering
of automobiles. The application
blanks may be secured upon applica-
tion to the chief inspector who bias an
Office for the summer at Lake Hopat-
cong and the registry fee is one dollar.
AS there are from 600 to 1000 motor
boats in use in the state if the law was
enforced at once it would entail the
payment of large amount in fines
but the Chief Inspector will wait a
reasonable time to give everyone a
chance to register.
One feature of the law that has
caused comment but will be enforced,
provides that there shall be no dupli-
cation of the names in the boats. This
means that the first applicant who has
boat named 6 Emma" will have the
right to use that name and no other
boat owner can christen his boat by
that cognomen no matter if he has
had his boat for years and the first
man has just purchased his.

Dog shooting Now In season.

AS the result of a mad-dog scare a
few days ago in the Hillside section Of
Morris township J. Paul Jameson,
township clerk, Monday night issued
proclamation that all dogs running
at large in the township without muz-
zles will be shot. The only exceptions
are dogs belonging to non-residents
and passing Through the township
with their owners.
The township committee met Mon
day night in the Office of it's counsel,
John M. Mills, and after considering
the matter authorized the clerk to is
sue the proclamation. The township
committee, however, failed to specify
any particular person to do the shoot
ing so that it will be possible for any
citizen who sees an unmuzzled dog to
take pot shots at him.
