TAX COMMISSION DECIDES
The Governor Praises Football Team and Coach for Advertising
 the State.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
 Those officials and employees of the state who were wise enough to be waiting at the old statehouse when the state treasurers office opened the other morning succeeded in haV- ing their warrants for their Novem- Der salaries cashed at face value. Those who were not so prompt will be forced to wait until the general revenue fund receives another wind fall or discount their warrants at the banks or other places of business that are willing to accept them.
 There was approximately $S,000 in the general revenue fund when the office opened, but 30 minutes later there was not cent. About $5,000 collected in automobile license fees had already been turned over to the treasurer by Secretary of State Hodges, but this had been held as a separate fund, as there was doubt as to what fund it should be turned into. Assistant Attorney General Rector rendered an opinion holding that this money should go into the general revenue fund, and this was done. Secretary of State Hodges turned in about S670 additional automobile fees, as well as S1 ,235 from franchise taxes and other sources. The attorney gen eral also turned in about $1,000.

DOCK MATTER
AT KEYP0RT
Public Hearing Tonight on
the Propositions.
Special TO the EVENING NEWS.

Keyport, May 22.-That Keyport
should have a passenger boat run
ming direct to New York daily, every
one, both old and young admits
would be a boom to the borough, but
where a dock shall be built for the
boat to land seems to be a divided
question.
Following the meeting last Friday
night in the town hall of the boat
committee several prominent men
seemed to think a stock company
should be formed to buy enough
property and riparian rights for a
dock at Pavilion Beach Park and
are now getting subscribers for that
end. An EVENING NEWS reporter
was told that John w. Keough, own
er Of Pavilion Beach Park, would
sell $50 feet of riparian rights on
the beach and a thirty foot street
opening from dock to First and
Broad streets for the sum of $1,000
and will take that amount in stock
OF a company formed for the pur-
pose Of building a dock and acquir-
ing the land.
The other proposition advanced is
that the dock should be built by pri-
yate subscription on the Borough's
land and be a public dock owned and
controlled by the borough for all
time.
A public meeting will be held in
town hall tonight at which the pub
lie are requested to turn out as some
definite plan will no doubt be de-
cided on,
