DEVELOPING LOCAL WATERS.

Congressman scully is making
great progress in his efforts to Sc
cure improvements for local water
ways. AS told In the EVENING
NEWS Saturday. he has Just been
informed by Colonel William Z.
Rossell. of the United States Fngi-
neers, that the Secretary of War has
| given the instructions to begin the
survey OF Staten Island sound, Rar-
itan bay and the Raritan and South
rivers at once, 1t is hoped to nave
the report of this survey ready for
| congress In December.
From the report issued in 1910,
which was also published in the
EVENING NEWS Saturday, is
seen that these waterways are al
ready recognized as being of vast

Congressman Scully behind the mat
ter there is reason to believe that
congress will take favorable action.
The figures showing the steady in
crease OF tonnage on Raritan bay
and Staten Island sound since 1910
which were given In Saturdays
NEWS, cannot help but make al Inn
preston at Washington. The re-
port for 1910 giving the amount OF
freight carried on the sound showing
27,796,723 short tons Is significant
and Congressman Scully is justified
in his hope that this will go over
100000 for 1911. There is
every reason to believe 1t will.
The Congressman states he is
working for a 30-foot channel up
the bay. This is what Perth Amboy
needs to further her development
more than any other n thing. With
such a channel this port readily
takes precedent over some OF the
along the Atlantic coast.
With the proper docking facilities

with vessels from all parts.
In view of these developments it
'ehooves the city officials to give
attention to our water front.

Once upon q time there was
An old man who was full of vim.
He was a czar; they called him so.
His name, we think. was Uncle Joe.
Oh, what could have become OF

To whom all potentates did bow,
Spread terror In the jungle land
And came home honored, sung and

Oh, where, oh, where, can he be

Until he reached his chosen goal
Which CHANGED to be the frozen pole

With courage grim and worked

MINORITY REPRESENTATION.
Every public board should have a
strong minority representation

Evsry public board should have al
minority representation.
Such members have a great duty to
se.aosfssxs Sn pot Ia eons
65nasurIonaschon is sAconduet
III o9en II q board consists entirely
OF one party, vet the minority acts
IA 1 check whereby the people may
becom6 more fully informed as to
transactions, causing open debates
on questions that otherwise might
go through without notice. Then,
again, there are occasions when a
strong minority in a board might
stand In the way of extravaganza or
.sso slinss creeping into the
management OF public affairs. But
the value of such a minority depends
entirely upon whether or not 1t
serves the people faithfully and in
sists upon knowing all that is going
on thereby throwing the light Of
publicity on ali transactions.
Middlesex county is to elect a
Beard of Freeholders this fall. AT
the present time this board is made
up OF four Democrats and one Re-
publican. The board, as a whole,
has done excellent work. 1t has
given the taxpayers a business-like
administration County affairs are
In excellent conditions; roads and
bridges have been put in repair and
the character of the. men is such as
to recommend them.
In this board there has been q
minority representation. A great
responsibility rested on this one lone
Republican, but whether or not he
measured up to it or not Is another
question. It Is sufficient here to
state that this minority representa-
tvs comes from South Amboy al
does n OF the majority, SO thai
South Amboy gets two members OF
the Board of Freeholders out OF {

SHERIDAN TRIO
SATURDAY NIGHT

The Sheridan Trio Of Chicago
appeared at the Nj G h odis t
church last Saturday evening.
The entertainment was the
last of the season in the courses
which have been given by the
Santa Fe Reading Room. The
trio was another of those splen-
did musical combinations which
has marked the events OF the
seasons entertainments given
for the railroad employees of the
Santa Fe system and the public
in general. All the numbers of
the past season were good, and
this one was in keeping with the
Others of high-class, and the
public enjoyed the number very
much. The attendance was
large and the company well re.
ceived, and it is regretted that
this will be the last number of
the season, but as the heated
term comes on 1t is customary
to discontinue the entertain
ments until fall. All the mem
bers OF this company were eX-
ceptionally go I'd and what can
be said of one can also be said
of the other in the way OF praise.
The violin, cello, piano and vo-
cal music was all that could be
desired, and those who were
fortunate enough to be there are
pleased with the evenings en-
tertalnment The superintend-
ent of the reading room deserves
credit tor the excellent manner
in which he has entertained the
public this year and all will look
forward to the next season will
delight and anticipation.

MARKET, STOCK
AND RANGE


thousand more than the same
week last year. The market
on fed steers above the middle
grade was strong all week, and
a new high top for the spring
months, $6 35, was made. Be
low the middle class steers
prices declined a little, because of,
the increasing number of cake
fed cattle from the South now
being put on all the markets,
which latter class answer the
same purpose as the cheap corn
fed steers, and do not cost as
much money. The spread be.
tween the best and the worst
has thus been widened, some
thing that should have happened
to the market months ago. The
run today is 5000 head here,
only two-thirds as large as on
last Monday. There are fewer
dry weather cattle here today
than a week ago, but there are
more quarantine cattle, but the
she rtage today is mostly in corn
fed cattle. These are selling
strong today, in fact all kinds
are stronger, though stockers
and feeders are considerably
lower than a week ago, the de-
cline of those classes in the last
ten days amounting to 25 to go
cents, most on stock cattle. Top
steers to day $6.15; bulk OF
steers from corn fed territory,
1926 to $6.1O; quarantine steers
mostly at $3.50 to SIS. .25, though
there are several droves of good
weight Texas cake fed steers
here today at $3.50 to $50.
Heiters in the native division
range from $3.50 to $500; bulls
$500 to $4.9O, calves $500 to
$3.50; feeders $500 to $3.50;
stock steers 81 rs to $5 25;
stock COWS and heifers $500 to
$4.25.
The hog market will not
down. Market at the close of
last week in almost the same
notch as at the close of previous
week, and prices 5 to 10 higher
today. A number of loads sold
at the top price today, $500,
and bulk of sales run from $5.85
to 5000. There is some bear
ish talk heard, which may have
some truth in it if receipts hold
up heavy, but hogs as still cut
ting up at a profit, and any re-
duction in the supply will likely
more than offset a falling off in
the demand for lard and meats,
which some packers forecast.
Chicago's run today fell seven
thousand below the estimate
made at the close of last week
for today, and packers evidently
see no burdensome run ahead
for this week, from their strong
bids today.
Sheep and lambs recovered Is
to 25 cents from the low spot
last week by the end of the week,
and though the supply today is
1900 head, prices are nearly
steady. Some Texas weathers
brought $500, same as they
brought Thursday and Friday.
Arizona spring lambs reached
81 90 today, remunerative
price, and Arizona weathers also
made $500. Ewes are selling
at $3.50 to So. IS; goats $500
to IS 40, with Gull stuff down
below $500; and feeding sheep
worth $500 to $3.50.
