HENNESSY WOULD
AMEND WALSH ACT
His Changes Affect Commission
Government Municipalities,
Present and Future.
lTrom stnm Correspondence

TRENTON. n. J., March 12.-As-
sem blyman Hennessy has introduced
an act to amend and clarity section 8
of the Walsh commission government
act so as to give it distinct inter-
probation
The original act gave to any munich
pality adopting it all powers neces-
sary for it's government not in con-
nict with the laws applicable TO all
cities Of this State or the Constitution.
II was further provided that the word
city" should be construed to mean
any municipality. 1t was intended
that when a municipality adopted il
the governing commission should be
free to exercise all necessary powers,
except as restricted by the Consutu-
ton or general state laws.
The point has been raised by mu-
nicipal bond experts in New York,
supported by lawyers, that all that
the Walsh act did was to enable
municipality to change its form OF
government. but not to enlarge the
scope of its municipal powers. In
other words village would still re-
main a village and town would
still remain a town and a city would
remain in the class of cities, and SUBJ
iect to the same general limitations.
This view. 1t is held, defeats the
chief purpose of commission govern
ment. which was to create new
class of municipalities free from legls-
lative domination, except as to Ger
tain general laws. The design being
absolute home rule. through the APP
plication of the initiative, referendum
and recall The issue was sharply
raised in Bergen County recently by
the refusal of New York bond OK
perts to approve a bond issue for the
commission government municipality
of Ridgewood, formerly a village
The large village of Ridgetield Park,
in Bergen County, which has adopted
commission government, is also much
interested in the question, although
1t affects Trenton. Passaic. Atlantic
City, Long Branch and other COM
mission government places.

HUDSPETH WILL BACK
WITTPENNS CANDIDACY
Lauds Jersey City Mayor in a
Long Letter.

JERSEY CITY, March 12.-Demo-
cratic National Committeeman Robert
S. Hudspeth, whose services in the
Presidential campaign have been re-
warded with the appointment of pro-
secutor of the Pleas of Hudson Coun-
ty, though some of his friends
thought he was a cabinet possibility,
has sent a letter to Mayor Wittpenn
indorsing the latter's candidacy for
the gubernatorial nomination.
The Mayor had intended issuing
reply to letter received by him
from acting Governor Fielder, but
for some reason best. known to him
self he has refrained from doing so.
Prosecutor Hudspeth's Endorsement
of Mayor Wittpenn's candidacy has
occasioned no surprise among the
supporters of Mr.. Fielder as It is
generally known that he is at the
head of a combination formed for the
purpose of controlling State politics
under the guise of being the simon
pure progressive of the party. The
other members of the combination
are Mayor Wittpenn. Chairman
Gtrosscup, of the State committee,
and Secretary of State David Crater
II is a sort of a mutual admiration
combination, the main purpose being
to aid each other In his political as
pirations Mayor Wittpenn is the
only one whose ambitions have not
been satisfied. Hudspeth, Crater and
Grosscup have all succeeded in get
ting job.
In his letter Prosecutor Hudspeth
goes so far in his eulogy of Mayor
Wlttpenn to make it appear that If
it were not for that officials activity
at Baltimore President Wilson might
not have been nominated.

lures. The books, which they hope
will be kept regularly and returned

PROGRESSIVES SHORT

agreement to send delegates to a

forming a new party, something
would be doing. real action begun.
Politicians may say that this is not
practical and the do-notnings gen
orally may oppose It; but 1t Is clear
that such a move carried out in good
faith would pull off a victory.
Forty per cent. of the Republicans,
pledged to such conference with
like percentage of the Progressives-
and my guess is that the latter would
be found-Would be enough TO form
the new party and once formed, it
is certainty that the other fellows
lowering around on the outskirts
would hustle to get in out of the wet"
Mr.. Munsey says that if the Pro-
gressives as a party We're 10 dis
band not more than ID per cent. of
them would join the Republicans.
Most of them would go over to the
Democrats, he says.
Mr.. Munsey adds that the Republic

Blacljacked at the -Four Corners. -
Charles 4. Nekrass, saloon-ieeper

found lying unconscious in the street

to the City Hospital He has con-

The assault on Nekrass, taking
place as 1t did at the busiest corner
in the city, was one of the boldest on
record. He was attacked by two men
who are believed to have travelled
with him from Hoboken to Newark.
The highwaymen probably intended
to rob him, but If they did they over
looked $3.50 in cash in one of his
pockets. They may have been fright
ened away, however, before they had
time TO search him.

HOW 70 STACK OATS.
Stacks Should Be Built 90 they viii
Shed Water-Stacks Should Be -
Set Up From the Ground.

Where grain is stacked it is impor
tant that the stacks be well built. II
the stacks are SO carelessly put up
that they will not shed water the
grain might much better be allowed to
stand in the shock. The bottom Of the
stack should be set up from the
ground slightly by laying down old
rails or other material to keep the
grain from coming In contact with the
earth. This will prevent the absorp.
tion of moisture from below. The
shape of the stack is less important
than the manner In which the bundles
are laid. They should be SO placed
that only the butts are exposed, and
$50 that water will readily run of the
sides of the stack and not penetrate
enough to wet the .grain. The round
form Of stack probably sheds water
better than the long rick sometimes
constructed. II the rick. is built the
top should be. covered with straw Of
wild hay to keep out water.
