try before the balloon was brought tc

woods, and had to walk three miles
before finding an automobile which

of Fake Prices-Much Produce Has
Been in Warehouses for Nearly Five
Years-Millions of Pounds on Hand
Prices Sure to Pail

Chicago, Jan. 17.-Millions of pounds
of butter, eggs, cheese and poultry held
in the cold storage warehouses here
will be thrown on the market before
May 1, and a general tumbling of food
prices is expected at once, according
to commission merchants.
Numerous Chicago commission men
are said to be facing failure as re-
suit of their efforts to maintain an
artificial price on the neeessaries of
life The inability further to uphold
this price is said to be due to a combin-
alton of circumstances, chief of which
are the open winter of 1911 and the
banner crops of 1910.
Three Merchants Fail.
Three commission men failed last
week, as the result of holding great
quantities of butter, which they pur-
chased at an average price OF 81 cents
a pound, and now are unable to mar
ket for more than 81 or % cents.
While the Wholesale prices of but
ter and eggs have dropped decidedly
within the last few weeks, there has
been no decline in retail prices.
Some Produce Five Years Old.
Much OF the produce TO DC uniodoeo
, on a falling market has been in the
Warehouses for as long as five years.
Thirty-two warehouses are known to
have $4,000, 900 pounds Of butter, eggs
and poultry.
The increased sale of oleomargarine
is given as an added cause for the stu
l. alton the commission men are now fac
t ing.

q wholesale than it was year ago, and

THE FIRE CHIEF.

There appears to be some friction
between Fire Chief Patrick Rocks
and the Board of Aldermen. Ever
since Mr.. Rocks has been in Office
he seems to have taken great pleas
ure in criticising the aldermen on
the slightest proyoeation and some
times with no provocation at all.
His recent orders reducing the
size Of the Lincoln Engine Com
pany's district has been repudiated
by Alderman ~Sandback, chairman of
the fire committee, and the an
ouneement is made that the alder
men will have something to say
themselves in redistricting the city
within a short times
1t ought not be hard to fix the
limits OF the FIRE chiefs authority in
the fire department. The chiefs
authority would seem to be at fires,
giving instructions to the firemen
as to the most efficient and
quickest way of extinguishing the
blaze. His office is not an execut-
I've n He is merely to direct the
department In fulfilling the duties
that are required of 1t. The man
agement OF the department, arrang-
Ing the districts, shifting the men,
supplying equipment and other fea-
lures OF that kind are entirely in
the hands of the fire committee of
the Board of Aldermen.
The chief Of police is under the
authority of the mayor and must
take orders, as far as the executive
part Of the department is concern
ed, from him. The chief of the fire
department is on a like footing, only
his orders come through the chair
ma Of the IRE committee. In many
cities there is a fire commission te
have charge Of the executive work Of
the IRE department. The chiefs in
all Of these cities confne their du-
ties entirely to lighting the fire and
e see that the men perform the
work that is required of them. Per.
haps Chief Rocks win learn some
thing to this effect when the alder.
men mako their announcement with.

parentIy It has not.
A WISE STAND.

Acting Mayor Voorhees, has the
people with him in the stand he has
taken in regard to q firemen's pa
rade. AS the EVENING NEWS said
before, a firemen's parade is an en-
ioyable feature while 1t lasts, but
the city needs a great many per
manent improvements yet, and as
everything we get here has to be
paid for by the taxpayers, every
$4,000 counts. Night schools,
parks, Fairgrounds and other things
are needed here and the $4,000 that
would be spent in a single day for
a firemen's parade would go a great
ways toward establishing any of
them.
Then, too, the Board of Trade is
deserving recognition by the alder
men in it's effort to advertise the
city and compete with other NUM-
cipalities in locating industries. Be
sides, the city has been spending a
great deal of money lately on inn
provements and there is every rea-
son why the pace should be slack
ened a little in order to catch up.
We all realize the excellence OF
our fire department and admire the
enthusiasm of the hremen, but with
the needs OF the city SO great in 9th
ed directions the time seems hardly
ripe for a fremen's parade, especial
ly when, to assure it's success, an ap-
preparation of $4,000 from the city
Is deemed necessary.

is not plain. We are sure II makes
no difference to the people of Mid
dlesex what Newark does in this
matter.
Newark is not alone in being him
dered in making local improvements,
because of the fact that permission
from the state is necessary before
any nov can be made. 1t is be-
cause all municipalities are COM
PEELED to go to the state with re-
quests Of this kind that the Iegisla-
ture is overworked with special leg
islation disguised so as to come
within the provision of the constitu-
ton. Thus the time that should be
given to the consideration for legis-
lative work necessary for the state
as a whole is wasted.
What New Jersey needs most of
all is a law giving home rule IL
cities. One general act which will
permit every municipality to han
die all local affairs itself without in
reference of the state legislature
would relieve the state body of a
vast amount of routine work and at
the same-time would go a great ways
toward giving the people what they
want when they want 1t. II Newark
wants to extend her trolley system,
that is her business and the repre-
sentatives from all sections of the
should have nothing to say
about it.
