offer in commercial life with head
quarters in one of the large north

decided. Mr.. Robira has made a

MIR. RoosRvELTs SILENCE.

Every day the New York news
papers tell us that Theodore Roose-
welt refuses to talk on the political
situation. But Why should he?
Surely the New York publishers
ought to give the distinguished for
mex president credit for having as
much sense as themselves. Mr..
Roosevelt is contributing editor of
q publication issued every week In
which he publishes all that he has
to say. "A everyone wants TO know
what this lie. all must buy the maya
zine. The result Ia subscriptions
continue to pour in and the circu-
lation grows rapidly Nov. u Mr..
Roosevelt told the reporters all that
he had to say and 1t was spread
broadcast in the daily press. there
would be no demand for tbs maya
zine. Ii may be that the contrib
uting editor gets a bonus on every
100 copies THAI lis added to the mag
axin,s circulation. Hence. Mr.,
Rooseveit's silence TO tho reporters
1t has always been admitted thai
he was q practical man.

COMMON SENSE VIEW.

Common sense will tell anyone
that q man elected by the people OF
only one ward cannot take the place
Of a mayor elected by all the peo-
pie OF the city when there 10 an al
ae-nan stactsc 1T large the same as
the mayor. When the Office OF vice
president OF council was created In
the city charter, there was no man
excepting the mayor elected by the
city az 4 whole. Law and Justice is
based on common mi and when
any action nov taken by Alderman
Dalton as acting mayor is carried
10 the courts and 1t is learned that
we have an a1derman-at-large 1t is
practically certain that such action
on the part OF afr. Dalton viii be set
aside.

large Ia nov, so that when Mr..
Wight says the vice president Is
elected to preside in the absence OF
the president of council, he speaks
correctly. But the alderman-at-
large is the president of council. Mr..
Wight clearly shows therefore that
It Ia the intention of the law that
the vice president of council shall
take the place of the alderman-at-
large. That being the case, by what
manner OF reasoning or stretch of
the imagination can 1t be made out
that the vice president OF council
shall go over the head of the presi-
dent OF council and become the act
ing mayor? 1t is true that the
charter says the vice president shall
be acting mayor, but that was when
the mayor was the presiding officer
Of council and the office of vice pres
ident was next to him. Now we
have a presiding officer Of council
elected by the whole city other than
the mayor and naturally the vice
president is to act only In the abb
of the president OF council, as
Mr.. Hight said In his letter. and the
president is now the alderman-at-
large.
The more one looks on this at
tempt to force Alderman Dalton, a
representative of a single ward. upon
the people as acting mayor to repre-
sent the whole city, the more of a
farce 1t becomes. The administra-
ton is only making trouble for the
city in keeping it up. II the Demo-
Gratis are wise they viii Join with

REVISION.

Charter revision is coming prom
iuently before the public these days.
Several cities are planning to ank
the legislature to give them a more
modern system OF government.
Long Branch is one of the latest to
consider such action. Judging from
the confusion now before the people
of this city, and from recent devei-
opments In New Brunswick, ONE
thing in this direction would not be
amiss In the two M~iddlesex cities.
Perhaps the greatest step in this
direction. showing how general is
the dissatisfaction with the prescott
system Of government

meeting of the mayors OF the difsr
emit cities held In Hoboksn for the
express purpose or discussing char
tiers. That the anticipated and In

many OF the municipalities Of the
state are working are the causes OF a
great many problems which are Inn

revision. Ia the feeling dominant In

meeting.
Mayors were present from most of
the leading cities and-all kinds of
government were discussed but no
conclusions were reached. It was
significant that none OF the mayors.
