Grade Crossings.

Grade Crossings.
The Embarrassing act has become
a law after years of labor and a steady
fight against the railroads, and against
those who considered petty details of
operation as more important than the
salvation of human life. Those who
feel gratitude for the present measure
recall with honor and sincere regard
the efforts of Senator Pierce, of Union
County, and men who fought with him
in the Legislature a year ago, by
which, though failing temporarily, the
present act was made imperative as a
political measure.

make it unnecessary for patrens of the
road to cross the tracks. The COM
pany's general passenger agent, Mr..

warrant the expenditure of much
rloney there for improvements.

a large number of leaks in the mains
and service pipes. Mr.. Shoemaker,
who is an expert in tracing leaks, ap-
peared before the City Commission by
invitation. He said a complete in.
vestigation of the water conditions of
the city, locating all the leaks, would
cost the city about SIS, 900, and would
require from nine months to a year.
The Penn's Grove record., 1913-03-21
Jury Bill Battle.

Practically every Sheriff in the State
was against the jury bill in its original
and effective form, and the House
passed it after lacking on amendments
which make it practically imperative
or effective because of the conditions
whic hthe referendum imposes. In its
present shape the interests which had
been opposing the bill are entirely sat
isfied, but they admit that there is
grave doubt of it passing the Senate
without further amendment, which
will practically restore it TO its first
form of effectiveness. The battle over
it will continue throughout the week.

President Rea's Protest.

President Rea of the Pennsylvania
Railroad sent Governor Fielder a long
protest against the new grade crossing
law. Everybody else except President
Rea apparently knew that the law had
been passed and signed and filed be-
fore the letter could be received. If
the railroad man is so far behind in
business matters, it is fair to ask
whether the matters are really of the
Importance he suggests. If they were
really significant, he would wake up to
the fact that his protest was several
hours too late.

Elected by One Vote.

Elected by One Vote.
Arthur ]. Tams, of the Fourteenth
Ward, enjoys the distinction of being
elected to the Board of Freeholders by
only one vote, At the last election,
when the smaller Board of Freehold
ers' election was under consideration,
someone in the Fourteenth Ward vot-
ed for Tams' return to the large board.
Now that the court has upset the
small board election Tams goes to the
large board with only one vote for
him and none against him.

Little Delay in Work.

LWCTe DEIdy N WORK.
The action of the Supreme Court in
granting a writ of certiorari to review
the proceedings in the city's condem-
nation proceedings against the Della
ware River transportation Company
will not seriously interfere with or
hamper the dock and wharf project,
according to Mayor Donnelly. The
granting of the writ, the mayor says,
will hold up the acquisition of only a
small part of the land wanted. AL
ready enough land has been acquired
to meet the immediate needs, and the
city will at once acquire more.
