KEYPORT FOR
BOAT SERVICE
Propositi ons Are Heard
Meet Again on Thursday.
Up. e,aI to the EVENING NEWs.

y ~ ~ v w
Keyport, May 23:-The town hall
was crowded last night with men
eager to boom the proposition to
have a boat run for passenger and
freight service between Keyport and
New York. During the meeting sew
eral propositions were listened to.
Among them Mr.. Hopkins, of New
York, representing them. Y. & N. j.
Steamboat Company, offered to lease
the Holmdel dock at Keyport to the
trustee of any company for 81 a year
for five years and to contribute
$1,000 yearly for five years toward
the maintenance of a boat provided
the company operating a boat made
no regular landings between New
York and Keyport and that said boat
should not carry any produce to or
from Keyport but could bring such
freight as offered her at the New
York pier to Keyport.
The Holmdel dock at present is in
a bad condition and would have to
be rebuilt before any boat could
land. DR.. o. G. Bogardus advanced
the principle that wherever a dock
should be built it should be the
towns once and forever and DR..
Bogardus further said that If such a
proposition be put through he would
contribute $1,000 to the town to-
ward the building of a public dock
no matter on what property If the
town owned it as we'll as the dock to
be. put on 1t. {
The subscriptions for a stock COM
pany for the building of a dock were
read at a committee meeting follow
ing the public hearing and the COM
mittee reported as having $500
now pledged of the estimated $4,000
needed to acquire the ground and
building of dock.
A meeting of the subscribers will
be held at Keough's Hall Thursday
night, May 25, and it was voted to
lake over the charter of the Key
port Company, an incorporated body
now legally alive, and continue this
project under that lame.

church Of the general assembly of

minister Presbyterian church of Min
neapolis, and one of the foremost men
In the religious work today, arrived
in the city Tuesday afternoon and
spoke at meeting Of the committee
Of 100 Of the Men and Religion For
ward movement, which was held at
the Commercial club rooms at 6:15
Tuesday evening.
. Nearly all of the members Of the
committee of 100 of this movement
gathered around the tables set in the
Commercial club dining room Tues
day evening. Following the supper
the various sub committee members
were announced by Executive Secre-
tary Kirk E. Wallace. R. B. Griffith
who presided at the meeting, spoke
shortly and then introduced Mr.
Thompson. Mr.. Thompson said in
part:
~ have always been most happy
when in my legal work l have had to
deal with the hard, knotty problems
This work, which has gotten such a
splendid start is also fraught with its
hard, knotty problems. which is one
reason why am interested in it. In
my opinion the Men and Religion
Movement is the greatest religious en-
terprise that has ever been started
The new work is such tremendous
thing and it has such unlimited pos
sibilities that it is unboundless in
its scope. 1t has created widespread
interest among the business men OF
the nation, the men who have the
welfare Of the United States in their
hearts.
Solomon said: Righteousness ex.
alteth a nation, sin is reproach tc
any people, This was true of Rome
and is it not as true OF the United
States? The power of the gospel il
as great in these days as it was il
the days Of old and this movement has
been started at an opportune time
The trouble with the evangelistit
movements in the past has been thai
they were spasmodic. the Men and Re
ligion Forward movement is too grea'
and has such a wonderful impetus
behind it that there is hardly chance
for it to drop out of existence"
