BeIleville, Bloomfield and Nutley
Residents Oppose Another
Hearing on Sewer Bill.

Delegations of citizens and officials
OF Belleville. Bloomfield, Nutley, Mont
clair, Orange and East Orange will
visit Trenton text week to debate the
question of the locating of q sewer dis
posal tank in the Soho section of Belle
will and Bloomfield. A bill prohibiting
the location of the plant is now on the
Governors desk awaiting signature.
Councilman Henry T. Stetson, of Or
ange, made application for a hearing
before the bill was signed. which was
granted.
The people of Bloomfield are not very
pleased at the idea of Governor VIII
son holding a hearing on the bill.
They scent more activity or the part
of the opponents OF the easur and
fear that strong influence will be
brought by Mayor Ernest Hinck, of
Montclair, and the authorities of Or
ange and East Orange on Governor
Wilson to veto the bill.
They had no intimation until the
story appeared in The Star today that
another hearing would be given on the
bill, as a hearing vas held by the
Senate before it was passed by the
latter, and the governor, they argue,
must be conversant with all the facts
in the case.
People in Belleville n Nutley are

purchase 1000 gallons of oil for use on
the streets this summer. The COM
