SOUTH AMB0Y
AND SEWERS
Citizens Say Conditions
Have Become UnbearabIs.
Special to the EVENING NEWS.

South Amboy, May 23:-There
are some things that are being per-
mitted by the city authorities that,
unless they are remedied speedily,
the aid Of the courts, or whatever
curse will be most feasible to rem
edy the evils, will be taken There
are quite a number of the citizens
of the town who we're heartily in ia
vor of the sewering of our town as
they realized that when this was
done there would be no reasonable
excuse for the endurance Of nuis-
ances which all through the summer
made 1t impossible for many to use
street doors open, especially during
meal time, on account of the stencil
arising from the cutters.
Heretofore there did not seem to
be any remedy in sight except the
building of cesspools which were
costly and a poor makeshift at that.
But now that a sewerage system is
installed, the citizens who have ia
ken the advantage Of 1t by making
connection Herewith, have resolved
that they will not endure the nuis-
ance during this summer. If there
Is any legal way possible to abate
this nuisance by compulsory connec-
ton they are determined to enforce
the same.
Another nuisance has been ere
ated by persons surreptitiously con-
Meeting their houses with the sur
face sewer and this has become
clogged SO that at the present time
some of the cellars in the vicinity,
we are told, are acting as cesspools
from the overflow of this source.
The mouth of this sewer does not ex-
tend out into the bay, but empties
Its filth out on the fiat close to the
shore, so that those living In the vi
entity are compelled to breathe the
n%auseous and poisonous air that
emenates from the mouth of this
sewer.
This has been borne until patience
has ceased to be a virtue and unless
some action is taken right speedily
the matter will be taken where it
will be remedied. This will not be
an individual matter, but a concert
ed action of many citizens.

The commission appointed some time

of the New Jersey Supreme Court,
consisting of Edward Taylor, of
Colts Neck; H. M. Dennis, of Free

to appraise a piece Of land to be used
for school purposes in this borough,
will meet at the high school building
Saturday morning for that purpose.
The high school grounds now
cover about ten city lots on Wash
ington and Lincoln avenues. Last
fall the Board of Education decided
this was not enough grounds and at
a special election last February
voted to acquire the four lots adj
joining the present property. The
Board of Education has bought three
of these without any trouble but the
fourth one owned by w. L. Treat, of
Brooklyn, declined to sell at any
reasonable figure, 1t is said, so 1t is
being taken by condemnation pro-
ceedings. Attorney Howard w.

resents the Board of Education and
