Henry Watterson. editor Of the Louis

group of newspaper men who during
convention Of that fraternity were one
afternoon talking Of typographical er-

great many funny typographical breaks
in my time. about the oldest and most
humorous transportation Of types that
ever came to my observation was that
in a New York paper some years ago.

CREEK BRIDGE CONTRACT.

In taking the contract for the reconstruc-
ton Of the Woodbridge creek bridge away
from Mr.. Monaghan, of South Amboy, who
was the lowest bidder and who started the
work, the freeholders have acted wisely. Any
one who has visited the structure during the
past few weeks cannot help but be impressed
with the incompetency of the mar who has
been handling the job. The lives of everyone
who has crossed the structure for weeks past,
have been jeopardized, and the freeholders,
who were responsible to the public, have taken
the only means possible for protecting them
selves.
If the bridge cannot be completed before
the severe weather sets in, as now seems like
ly, steps should be taken at once to make the
structure safe for travel during the winter
months. 1t is to be regretted that a mistake
was made in the beginning in awarding the
contract to a man who has made a failure
of it. Let us hope that the early spring will
see the structure permanently repaired and
no lives will be lost in the meantime.
Perth Amboy evening news., 1912-12-14

of the cities the right to legislate for them
selves without having to go to the state legis-
lature for permission. Thus, any city can
adopt what seems suitable for its own gov
eminent and can meet its own problems with
out running the risk of interfering with con-
ditions in other cities that are entirely diff
ferent.
The matter of home rule for cities is one of
the greatest necessities at the present time. Mu-
nicipal government is recognized as the hard
est problem in a republic. There is no reason
why any city should have to first go to the leg
~islature for permission before it can raise the
pay of its police officers, issue bonds for the
improvement of the fire department or make
other local changes that pertain entirely to the
city itself. Give us home rule for all cities and
we believe the objection to the representation
in the senate will readily pass away.
