ACTION
DECLARED LEGAL,
M0NTCLA|R HEARS
Special Counsel, 1t Is Rumored,
Says Town Can Issue Bonds
and Seat New S0l0ns.

It is said that Town Attorney Robert
NJ. Boyd. jr., wifi report to the Mont
clair Town Council next Monday night
that the firm OF lawyers In New York
to whom the matter of the Negality
of any future bond issue, in case two
new members OF the council are p
pcinted to fill the vacancies caused by
the creation of the new Fifth ward,
was referred, declare ii will be per-
fectly legal to seat the members and
that action SO far as the issue of bonds
is concerned will also be legal, This
will confirm Mr.. Boyd's W opinion
given to the council at it's last meeting.
Russell Booth Bedford was chosen
at a public meeting to represent the
new Fifth ward vacancy, and there
seems to be no opposition to him
Thomas Conyngton vas chosen by the
First Ward Republican Club to fill the
vacancy in that ward, and the Demo-
Gratis have indorsed Bennett H. Fish
Ter fol- the same ward. Mr.. Fishers
friends claim that at the last election,
when ON the Democratic ticket. for
members of the council, he carried the
two districts which now compose the
First ward.
Within the last few days a dark
horse has sprung up in the person OF
j. II. Harrington, and it is said he will
probably land the prize at h meeting
of the Council lex Monday night over
both Conyngton and Fisher. Mayor
Ernest c. Hinck, IL is rumored, win
nominate j.. B. brewster to succeed
Robert B Harris as member of the
board of assessors. Mr.. Harris has
been holding over since January l.
\ canyas of the councilmen shows
that the mayors nomination will not
be confirmed by the Council, and thu.
unless he names Mr.. Harris to succeed
himself, the latter VIII continue TO hold
over indefinitely. Mayor Hinck 1eld a
conference with The members of the
Council last Tuesday night. and h.
knows the feelings of tie members n
regard to Mr.. Harris n whether h
will name Brewster in the face OF spch
opposition is now a question, although
it is said he is determined on doing so.
Mr.. Harris has held the Office about
twenty-five years.

De MOCRATS NOW
READY TO GIVE
OUT MORE PLUNS
Majority in Orange Common
Council, Apparently United,
Expected to Make Changes.

With the realignment in the Orange
Common Council actually producing a
change in administrative workmen, a
contamination of the Demoertic coun-
cilmen failed to achieve in the frequent
attempts to stand as a unite, political
students are anticipating early changes
III the various departments. which, up
TO the present time, have remained I'M
disturbed. Thus far the outside Jobs
have been given out and the inside po-
s%itions. including appointments in he
tax collectors office. water clerks
office, the assessors appointments n
other plums, will. in all probability. be
next taken up, in keeping with the
program the new officials have under
stood the people who voted for a
change wish carried out.
Against an almost solid force Of six
Republicans the Democrats are now
apparently aligned on a c~hangeable
basis of combinations. Henry T. Stet-
sons original decision not to be bound
by a party caucus because of dissatis-
faction with some of the men suggested
for positions is not now discussed with
the bitterness it formerly provoked,
and his fate in being read out OF
the party" by five of his constituents
is seemingly not the awful catastrophe
for the young Second ward man that
some of the strict old-time party men
proclaimed.
Mr.. Stetson's opposition to some APP
pointments, because he did not consider
those mentioned to replace Republicans
the most efficient available, has been
emulated by others of his colleagues,
and the changes in states originally
made out are numerous. The Council
men of the Democratic delegation, who
would have, If united, eight votes to
six. are feeling free TO vote on the
individuals as presented and with the
knowledge that men to get positions
must be generally satisfactory. 1t is
understood nominees are being quietly
discussed whose general qualifications
will be satisfactory TO a majority.

MAYOR GREGORY
To IGNORE CIVIL
SERVICE RULING
Objects to Opinion That Chief OF
Policies Office Is in Com
petitive Class.

The attention of Mayor Julian a
! Gregory, of East Orange, to the iac'
that the civil Service Commission
places the chief of police nnder inc
| competitive class was called yesterday
Aby the and when ne re-
ceived official word today ne saiU a
decision from City Counsel Borden -,
Whiting would cause him TO disregard
the commission when the time came I"
name a new chief of police,
Asked If he had any reason TO pc
Iieve he would have the appointment u
a chief during his term, Mayor Gresory
said he did not desire to express NM
self on the matter.
The opinion of Mr.. Whiting goes deep
into the question. and he fails to I'M"
anything in the charter in PLAIN terms
giving the commission power to take the
action it did in placing the cfleIs OIL
police and fire departments under CIVIL
service.
'The success of a mayors admins
tration depends on the heads of the
various departments said the eXecu-
tive. Il believe this is particularly true
of the police department. If the courts
do not uphold my contention that l
should have the naming of a chief n
the City Council confirm l believe II
would work, injuriousiy to the welfare
of the city and police department.
at seems TO me in securing a good
chief for East Orange, other things be-
ing equal, a man who has beefr7a resi-
dent of the city and well acquainted
with its conditions and the like YOU
qualify him to make a better chief
than a man who might be able to pass
a much higher examination, and yet
notrhave the necessary experience.
II have carefully read the city char
ter and in my Judgment there is no
basis for the commission taking the
action it did"
Mr.. Whiting stated he believed the
trainers of the charter would have
mentioned this Office IL it were their
intention that it could come under the
police commission. He says the chief
is still an appointee of the mayor, and
re remains in office during good be-
haVior.

said, by creating "a primary school in

thus relieving the congestion of the
present school and setting free two
rooms that could be used for nigh
high school purposes.

IN regard 10 the ALTERNATIVE pidl VI ~
board relative to building the primary

satisfaction was expressed in regard
20 the cost Of the proposed primary
school.

speakers, contended that two primary
schools could be erected for practically
the amount asked for the one,
A plot situated on Nirker and Forest
was deemed to be more con-
veniently located than the proposed

definitely decided upon as to a site,
as it will be necessary first to defeat

FOR THE PUBLIC
New Formula Cures Coughs,
Colds, bronchitis and HOarse-
ness in Five Hours.

Much is being lone In these days to
stop the ravages of consumption, but
probably nothing has been so effective
as teaching the public how to break up
a cold and cure coughs, bronchitis, tom
msilitis, ETC., with simple i1Ine-mixed
medicine. A laxative cough syrup, free
from whiskey, is the prime need. A
cough indicates inflammation and con-
g~estion, and these in turn are due to
an excess of waste and poison in the
system. A tonic laxative cough syrup
rids the system of congestion. while
relieving the painful coughing. Get
the following n mix at home: One
half ounce fluid wild cherry bark, one
ounce compound essence cardiol and
three ounces syrup white pine com
pound. Shake the bottle and take
twenty drops every half hour for four
hours Then one-half to one teaspoon
full three or four times daily. Give
children less. according to age Cut
this out and save II for some friend.
