the exhibit impresses the fact that
precautions against accident needs not
be costly.
Speaking of the exhibit, John Kirby,
Jr., president of the National Associa-
ton of Manufacturers, expressed the
hope that it might form the nucleus
of department of cooperative aid
in safety appliances. Manufacturers
attending the convention will be asked
to register the requirements of their
plant, and working drawings of the
devices directly interesting them will
be furnished to them.

City Council held a very lengthy
session. last evening, President John
N. Glaspell presiding, and every mem
ber at his desk upon the call of the
roll. ,.si /,
Two of the most important matters
to come before the body were the bond
ordinances, one issue of $4,000, for
the sewerage system and sewage dis
posal plants, and the other for SIS, 900,
to construct the water filtration
works and additional water supply
system.
A building permit was granted Rob-
ert Carman to build a fireproof store
house in the rear of the property that
he now occupies on South Laurel
street.
A communication was received from
Mayor Hampton appointing, subject
to confirmation by council, DR.. John
H. Moore and Harry Autenreith to
act as members of the Board of
Health. Upon motion of Mr.. Ogden,
the appointments were confirmed.
The report of Commissioner of Pub
lie Safety, George H. Hughes, was one
OF unusual interest, and covered the
several departments under his direc-
tion. Since the last meeting of coun-
Gil, the police have answered thirty
two calls, most of them being matters
of minor Importance. Six violations
of, the ordinance providing for the
display of lighted lamps on vehicles
after nightfall have been reported.
and in each instance the $3.50 has
been paid over to the Mayor. Notice
has been served upon the dealers in
fireworks that dealers will not be al
lowed to sell any cannon crackers or
dynamite crackers, the small fire.
crackers are permissible.
Twenty-seven dogs have been
caught by the dog catcher up to date,
eighteen have been put to death and
two redeemed. The Commissioner
presented a copy of notice which he
will have placed in the daily papers
warning owners Of dogs, and today
he starts upon personal canvass of
the city, and, will have officer Betch-
ner to accompany him. All violations
OF Ordinance No. 1873, concerning the
registration of dogs will be reported
and complaint made against the own
er or the person who harbors the dog
unless it is properly registered. The
ordinance calls for a fine of $500,
and after the commissioner and the
police officer have gone over the en-
tire city, it is pretty certain that they
will have completed an accurate dog
census.
F. L., Fralinger, Commissioner of
Streets and Highways, has been en-
gagged in making permanent repairs
to number of the streets and reports
a satisfactory condition of affairs in
his department.
Timothy Woodruff, Commissioner of
Public Works, and Robert F. Ayars,
overseer of the Poor, each presented
detailed reports of their departments.
The schedule of approved bills
amounting to $816967 was presented
and upon motion of Mr.. Whitaker,
warrants were ordered drawn upon
the city treasurer for the several
amounts.
Mr.. Ogden moved that the ordinance
to appropriate the sum Of $4,000, for

COMMISSION WINS
IN TRENTON

Trenton, June 20.-Trenton today
adopted the Walsh Commission form
of government act passed by the Leg
islature, and within two months all
municipal departments, excepting the
Board of Education, will be in control
of five commissioners, each of whom
will receive $S500 year. A nomi-
mating primary will be held month
from today and a special election will
take place the following month.
The act was adopted by majority
of 1903. The votes cast in favor of
it numbered 6792 and those against,
1890. Sixty-six per cent. of last falls
vote was polled today. This was the
same percentage as that polled during
the recent Bayonne election. 1t was
necessary that more than 5000 votes
be cast Ia favor of the proposition be-
fore it could be carried. Not until
after the polls closed at o'clock to-
night was there any certainty of the
result.
Opposed by both political machines,
brewery and private interests, it was
scarcely believable that success was
instore for the advocates of the new
fora of government. Desire on the
part Of a majority of the people for a
Change because the Democratic party,
Which was placed in control of NUM-
cipaN affairs last fall, had failed to
mategally improve conditions, is gen.
orally cconceded to have caused the
demand for commission form.
AlthdhgA the campaign was the
most exciting in the history of Tren-
ton, the election was quiet, and there
was but littl Representation after the
result was generally known. The
campaign was particularly bitter
among local newspapers and resulted
in libel suits between two of them.
TheJTrenton Chamber of Commerce,
church and temperature workers cam
paigned for the adoption of the act.
Tactics adopted by a local afternoon
paper, it is believed, materially af-
fected the result. This paper dis
cussed the histories of many of those,
particularly politicians, who openly
opposed commission form.

FARM LIFE IS

Statistics Show Remark.

INTERESTING FACTS
Records Prove That of All Indus
trial Accidents As Per Cent.
Happened to Farmers.

New York June 20.-The experience
of several large manufacturing plans
in the prevention of industrial acci-
dents and results of research that has
been carried Npn in Germany for the
last twenty-five years have been set
forth for the bhneft of the members
of the National kAssociatfon of Manu-
facturers, in annual convention in the
Waldorf. In large room adjoining the
convention hall are displayed photo
graphs of safety devices, actually in
use in manufacturing plants, and
charts showing the industries partic-
ularly subject to these mishaps, the
hours of the day and the day Of the
week on which most accidents occur,
being shown also.
1t has been brought out by the Ger2
man statistics that agriculture suffers
far more from accidents than any
other occupation Of the total number
of mishaps resulting in temporary dis
ability, As per cent. occur in >agri-
culture, each in Gron and steel
trades and in building operations, and
81a per cent. in mining. 1t is ex-
planned that it is natural that the
agricultural .laborer, should be espee-
tally subject to accident, for he has
to handle teams, machinery and ex-
plosives, and Is too much of a jack
sof-all-trades to be skilled in any one
Modern methods also increase the
risk of the occupation, for Canadian
records show that the percentage of
deaths Increased steadily from IL per
cent. in 1904 to 20 per cent. in 1909,
while in mining there had been much
fiuctuation, but apparently no perma-
nent increase.
The large number of accidents on
Saturdays is generally explained by
the fatigue of the week telling on the
men, but it is noted also that the Mon
day accidents are about as numerous.
This gives rise to the suggestion that
the day of rest is not too wiselysspent.
Other charts show how the percent
age in the number Of injured inGreases
from to each 1000 workers between
the ages of Is and 20 to 16 1000 of
those between 60 and 70. On the
other hand, at no time of life is the
number of women injured greater than
1926 per 1000.
Many of the photographs exhibited
by such concerns as the National Cash
Register Company, the International
Harvester Company, and the Gros-
venor-Dale Company show how SIM
pie safety appliances may be. A
shield over a revolving saw will save
many workers fingers; little red
paint on dangerous point will call
the workers attention to II almost un-
consciously; a railing in front of
freight elevator will prevent passers
falling down the shaft. Repeatedly

So far we have seen very little in
the work of the recent Legislature to
be commended. But there is one
piece of legislation reported that is
credit to the last Legislature. We
refer to the new law regarding the
taxing of telephone systems. Here
toforr the state board has levied a
fiat rate of taxation. Under the new
law the telephone systems are to be
assessed and taxed the same as all
other property in the taxing district
Under the new plan the telephone
companies will have to pay local city
and school taxes. 1t is a just law,
one that should have been placed on
the statute books in the beginning,
and one that our readers will remem
ber we advocated four and two years
