HARRISON TOWN NEEDS
LESS THAN IN YEARS

Harrison taxpayers in 1914 will be
called upon to raise for local pur-
poses the lowest amount of money
in number of years. This was shown
last night when the budget, after be-
ing amended, was passed an final
reading. Councilman Clarence I. Van
Deren, after a strenuous fight, man
aged TO have deducted from the orig
inal figure 1000, which is a portion
of the money to be received from the
sale of streets to the Crucible Steel
Company and the Public Service Cor
poration.
Town Counsel Michael T. Barrett
advised against such procedure. He
contended litigation might prevent
the payment of the money by the cor
porations in question. The council
intends to redeem a bond for the re-
cent Improvement of John street with
the remaining $4,000 of the street sale.
The total amount to be raised locally
by Harrison taxpayers for 1914 will
be $109, 1879.

PURCHASE
ENRICHES HARRISON

BY producing an Offer made by the
Public Service Corporation for the
purchase of streets located west of
South Fourth street and south of the
main line of the Pennsylvania Rail
road, Harrison Councilman John j.
DAILY, of that town, last night sue
ceeded in enriching the town to the
amount of $1,000
When the Public Service last night
made an application for the pur-
chase of the streets, which exist only
on the town map, IL offered $4,000
Councilman DAILY remembered the
company had previously offered
more. He explained this, but five of
his colleagues. questioning the verac-
ity of the statement even after Mr.
Daily submitted papers which showed
the offer had been made, voted to
take only $4,000.
Some time after the vote was taken,
Percy ingalls,. representing the Pub
lice Service, declared he had inspect
ed the papers Droduced by Mr.. Daily
and was satisfied the offer had been
made Prior to that time some of
the councilmen who favored the &C
ceptance of $4,000 doubted an offer of
a larger amount had ever been
made. Ingalls, not only acknowledged
that one of the company's men had
made the offer referred to by DAILY,
but he qualified by declaring his
company would back up the previous
offer of 1899 and would add on an
extra dollar to bring the total up to
$11 900 The agreement was accepted.
Councilmen O'Connor, Sullivan,
Rice, Henry and Van Deren favored
the $4,000 offer Councilmen Clifton,
Daily and McI<eon ana Mayor Riordan
were opposed. McKeon even refused
to vote for S11 600 He claimed he did
not thoroughly understand the mag
nitude of the sale.

Newark and East Orange Abuse
Dumping Ground Priv
iIeges in BelIeviIIe.

The Belleville Board of Health fasg
granted to Newark and East Orange
to use the property at Eugene place
and Honnis street, Silver Lake, as
public dumping ground. This action
was taken after Frank e. Pendle-
bury and Alfred Lintott, residents of
that section, complained that the
conditions under which the permits
were granted were not being full
filed.
Health Inspector W. Brand Smith
corroborated the statements. He con-
tended that when permission was
granted Newark and East Orange it
was on condition that for each load
of separated garbage deposited on
the grounds a corresponding load of
ashes would be used to cover the
deposit. This condition was not be-
ing fulfilled, he commended He adj

privileges granted during the summer
months
Prosecutor Jeraldo Maioran, of Silver
Lake, who owns part of the prop
erty being used as dumping ground,
and who is a member of the Board OF
Health. Mr.. Maioran pleaded for a
continuance of the privileges on the
ground that the filling in of the
property would soon be completed,
and also that to stop it now would
cause a greater menace than to con-
tinue dumping with the conditions
fulfilled, since it would leave q
stagnant pool on the property.
On the advice of James Robotham,
inspector for the Essex County
Mosquito determination Commission.
that that body would take care of
the pool the board voted to revoke
the Permits for the summer months.
Health Inspector Smith reported
that he had received a communication
from the State Board of Health adj
yising him that the sample of milk
forwarded for analysis had been
found to be in perfect accord with
the State code.

arranged to open a new street, Olaf
place, to carry the road from where

that seemed to meet with the favor of
his colleagues. He suggested that all
saloon licenses expire at the same
time-say two years from now-so as
to have the $4,000 or $4,000 of
