Proceedings Ordered to Gle
Possession of Former Of
ficiaI's Books.

A legal battle is now assured as the
result of the action of the Belleville
Town Council in abolishing the office
of Frederick Ritter, water collector,
and creating two other offices in its
place. Town Attorney John De Graw
has been instructed to institute pro-
ceedngs against the company which
bonded the former collector to OBJ
tain possession of the books, papers
and money in Mr., Ritter's possession.
The Exempt Firemens Association,
of which Mr.. Ritter is member, has
taken up the fight in his behalf and
may assist him in the legal proceed
ings.
Ritter, who is a Republican, was
appointed water collector on January
1, 1912, by the Town Council, which
was at that time, as it is now, in the
control of the Republicans. His office
was abolished the latter part of last
year and the Office of superintendent
of the water department was created.
: The collection of water rents was
placed in the hands of Town Collector
George w. Staniar.
Later Harry Machette was APP
pointed superintendent of the water
department, at a salary of 5000 a
year. The office of assistant to the
town collector was created and

FOREST RESERVATIONS.

WASHINGTON, May s. By approving
the purchase of three new tracts, one in
New Hampshire, one in Tennessee, and
one in North Carolina, the national for
est reservation commission has shown
that the work of adding to the govern
ment's holdings for the protection of
navigable waters is to 60 steadily for
ward. The first purchase was made in
1911, when Secretary of War Stimson,
Secretary of the Interior Fisher, and
Secretary of Agriculture Wilson repre-
sented the executive branch of the gov
eminent on the commission, with Sena-
tors Gallinger of New Hampshire and
Smith of Maryland and Congressman
Lee of Georgia and Hawley of Oregon
representing the legislative branch.
Under the law creating the commits
sion the three Secretaries named above
were automatically replaced on March
4th by their successors, Secretaries Gar
rison, Lane and Houston. The senators
and congressman remain unchanged.
The new board has added $4,000 acres to
the total previously approved for pur-
chase.
Of the three tracts added New Eng
land is especially interested in the New
Hampshire one. 1t is in the White
Mountains and its forests protect the
headwaters Of the Connecticut river.
The tract covers Z, 500 acres on the west
ern slope of Mount Moosilaukee, one of
the most prominent and best known
peaks in the region.
In part the tract is covered with virgin
spruce forest. Another part has vau-
able stand of mixed spruce and hard
woods on lands which were cut over rs
years ago, while third portion of the
area contains lands which have been par
TALLY cut over in more recent years.
With the approval of this tract the
total acreage for federal forests in the
White Mountains will amount to some
10000 acres. Altogether the forest
lands in the East, approved for purchase
under the Weeks law, comprise about
500, 600 acres, made up, in addition to the
White Mountain area, of various tracts
in the Mountains of Virginia, North
Carolina, Tennessee, and Georgia.

The Tides to be Harnessed.

iy. E. A. Battiscombe contended that the

about to be realized. Mr.. Battiscombe
is of the opinion that the tidal proposal
is not so revolutionary as some seem to
think, and that few realize the use to
which tidal power is put every day of
the year in propelling ships and in the
case of tidal basins in raising vessels OF
enormous tonnage. The main difficulty
in making use of the tides is in the ques-
ton of embankment walls, whether they
