The Lambertville record. [volume] (Lambertville, N.J.) 1872-1968, 1913-07-31

Long years ago John Bray should
have been remembered in a manner
that would have made his name as
well known today as that of George
Washington himself, and every
Hunterdon County citizen owes it
to posterity to see to it that
Americas most American county
pays due honor to its son who did
such faithful duty near a century
and a half ago.
1t would be especially fitting that
the monument should be erected in
the city of Lambertville, in a small
park overlooking the Delaware
River, as it was at this point (then
Coryells Ferry that the worlds
best known event was planned by
General Washington and his as
sociates, in its first stages.
With every citizen of Hunterdon
County giving even few cents
each or, it the case of school child
rem, a single penny each-it should
be possible to raise enough money
to erect a monument to the memory
of the man who lies in Rosemont
Cemetery, unhonored save by the
few who know the local side of the
story of the American Revolution,
which was played so greatly within
sight of the city of Lambertville.

MAY GET INDUSTRY
Chamber Of Commerce Negotiating
With Parties--New Official List.

With a favorable report from it's
industrial committee, at a special
meeting held in the Council Cham
bers on Tuesday evening, the Lam
bertville Chamber of Commerce has
bright prospects of securing a new
industry for this city which bids
fair to employ goodly number Of
people and prove of lasting benefit
to the community.
The secretary has been directed
to arrange some of the details of
the proposed financing, after which
the matter will be taken up with
the public. The committee has al
ready visited the present plant of
the concern, which is making a por-
celain product, and was well salts
fled with the inspection
The officers of the Chamber of
Commerce, including the commit
tees, which are appointed by the
president, are as follows:
President, George w. Arnett :;
vice-president, Elmer Helms treas
urer, Jonathan M. Lambert; fnan-
ciaI secretary, Charles D. McCracken;
secretary, Walter F. Hayhurst.

General John Bray, of Kingwood,
Hunterdon County, who provided
the boats with which Washington
crossed the Delaware on Christmas
night, 1777.
1t seems but fitting that Hunter
don County should honor its citizen
who played an even more import
ant part in this great event than
did George Washington himself. 1t
was no trifling task to gather these
boats together, under conditions
prevailing in those times, and to
bring them to point where the
Continental army could use them in
safety and with expedition.

Scheduled to Visit the Coryell's Ferry Gathering
on Thursday Evening, August 28.
GREAT COMMONER WILL ATTRACT MANY

William Jennings Byran will lee
ture before the Coryell's Ferry
Chautauqua, at New Hope, on Thurs
day evening, August %, at 8 o'clock
unless the present plans miscarry.
DR.. J. E. Scott, chairman of the local
Chautauqua, received word to this
effect from DR.. Paul M. Pearson,
President of the Pennsylvania
Chautauqua, on Tuesday. The an
nouncement is made with the re-
servation that, should Mr.. Bryan
find it necessary, the engagement
can be cancelled by suitable notifcat-
ion.
The Lambertville record. [volume] (Lambertville, N.J.) 1872-1968, 1913-07-31

1t was the hope of the Coryell' S
Ferry Chautauqua to have Mr..
Bryan lecture here, earlier in the
proceedings, but his appointment
as Secretary of State was supposed
to have terminated that possibility,
and he was not billed for this circuit.
DR.. Pearson writes that Mr..
Bryan's own Chautauqua manager
will take up the matter of details.
Mr.. Bryan's appearance here will
bring out a vast crowd of people
undoubtedly, as he is a great draw
ing attraction wherever he speaks.
Other details next week.

A STORMS DAMAGES
The One on Monday Made Things
Interesting in This Vicinity.

Lambertville and New Hope were
visited by thunder storm on Mon
day evening that kept things lively
for awhile, and did considerable
damage, both by wind and lightning.
The barn of Winfield Smutz, on
Cottage Hill, was struck and burn
ed, together with the contents, the
loss being about $500, and covered
by insurance. The lightning fol-
lowed some small wires to the house,
burning Mrs. Smutz on the right
arm, but not seriousl y.
Union Street looked like a forest
for time, many limbs being blown
down near the postoffice, and part
of tree between Coryell and York
Streets. The side-yard of the Elks
Home, on Bridge street, was filled
with broken limbs.
At Moore's Station an old blast,
lost some time ago, was set off by
the lightning, loosening several
thousand tons of rock and earth,
but not injuring any of the en-
ployes, who had previously fled from
the downpour of rain.
For time the electric lighting
system of the city was out of COM
mission, owing to the fallen tree
limbs and grounded wires, but the
service was resumed shortly before
s o'clock.
OVER THE RIVER.
Over in New Hope the house oc-
cupied by Richard Peaker was struck
by falling tree, blown over by the
wind, and the roof crushed so bad
ly that new one will have to be
put on the building.
The M. E. Church suffered the
loss of the grill work around the
steeple. St. Martins R. C. Church
lost several hundred slate on the
steeple, from a stroke of lightning
Lightning followed the water
pipes into the house of John H. Ely
at Bridge and Ferry streets, giving
Mrs. Ely, who was drawing water
at the time, quite shock. The
kitchen sink was filled with fire for
a moment
A hay barn on the Paxson farm,
in Buckingham Township was burn
ed, and a house at Bushington. Ir
the latter case not only the house
but all the small outbuildings Were
cleaned up completely.
Two or three houses were struck
at Woodhill, but not burned.

No. 10 x IL King Street Christiansted. for,
the purpose of erecting therein q monument
to the memory of the late Governor Linn
prlcht, up to 1900 Frcs. The proposal is
explained in the 'Remark4'' as follows:
'Ihe grant is sought on the re-
presentation Of the Committee elected bv
the Members of the Colonial Council for
procuring and erecting a monument to the
memory of the late Governor Limpricht.
1t is contemplated to use the money for
enclosing the lot with a suitable railing
and for the levelling, planting etc. of the
lot, also for the erection of a base for the
monument, all under the lead of the said
Committee"
The item was approved and passed.
G. The last Item of the Bill is for refundinp
import duty paid on articles imported for
church use and for charitable institutions
amounting to about 276 Frcs. This Item,
like all its predecessors in the Money Bill,
was passed by the Council.
, 1913-03-29

In our very brief sketch in the Avis Of the
18th inst. of the Councils proceedings on
Monday the 18th, we promised to give some
explanation concerning the draft Of Ordi-
nance making an addition to the Cotton Dis
eases Ordinance; and further to give some
particulars about an additional money bill
which was passed at the same meeting.
l. We begin with the cotton question.
Some of our readers will remember that the
Cotton Diseases Ordinance provides for q
Commission consisting of four cotton growers,
with power to enforce the provisions of the
Ordinance, among which is II rule that all
old cotton must be rooted up ana burned at
a date to be fixed by the Commission, and
that no cotton can be planted until after the
lapse Of from 2 to 4 weeks after that has
been done. The new Ordinance gives the
Government authorization to allow departures
from mis- rule when special circumstances
recommend it. The matter is clearly ex-
planned in the "Remarks" to the draft, which
here follow.
'sThe Government has received from the
agricultural Society" a petition request
ing that there may be granted to the
Commission elected in accordance with
s / of the Ordinance OF Goth September
1911, authorization to set aside for the
present year the rule in 5 3 of the Ordi-
nance, according to which there shall have
passed a fixed time between the uprooting
, 1913-03-29

OF the old cotton and the planting of new
cotton on an estate. The reason for the
petition was that such a departure from
the rule is necessary, in order to escape
from the too late planting of the cotton
areas.
CAS- such a departure will require the
warrant of an Ordinance, the present Draft
is brought forward, which, as it is by no
means inconceivable that a like situation
to the present may again arise, has in view,
not only the immediate occasion, but is
intended to give the Government a gen
eral authorization, when the circumstances
recommend it, to allow a departure from
the rule in $s3 of the Ordinance in regard
to the earliest date for planting"
2. The Money Bill. The Bill consists Of
four items.
l. Proposing an expen liture of 2,300Frcs.
for supporting and widening certain roads
in the West End Quarter, and $50 Frcs. for
erecting a supporting wall where the road is
cut by the water-course at the Parade
Ground. Both of these measures are need
ed, and our readers will be glad to know that
the proposal for these grants was adopted
by the Council.
2. A proposed grant of 81, 553 Frcs. for
covering expenses connected with the mea-
sures taken to protect the island against the
Bubonic Plague. Although the amount is
large, it was a necessary expenditure in view
OF the serious character and the nearness of
the danger. The grant was made.
3. A Bill fol granting 10000 Frcs. for re-
pairing and charging the official dwelling
of the Inspector of the prison and sick insti-
buttons at Richmond, and 81 further sum of
1900 Frcs. for certain building work at Ere
deriksted's Hospital. The Bill was adopted
by the Council.
4. A proposal for granting various
amounts falling under the head of Uncertain
Expenses"
a. For the formation Of a reserve fund for
ST. Croix Frcs. $685. 13. 9O3.
The "Remarks" Oh this item fully explain
it, and read as follows.
On the initiative of the Ministry of
Finances the Government has discussed
with the Municipal Committee the forma-
ton of a Reserve Fund for the Municipali-
ity of st. Croix, and it has been agreed,
that it would be particularly desirable to
have such a fund to fall back upon when
unusual calamities occur, as for example
hurricanes, earthquakes, failure of crops.
and the like, which indeed seldom occur.
but when they do are among the most de-
structlve OF natural phenomena.
cit is therefore proposed, that the part
of the Colonial Treasury's balance which
at the present time is invested in Danish
bonds, about Frcs. SOC, 600, snail be set
aside as a special Reserve Fund with the
above stated object, and so that the inter
est OF the Funds balance is carried TO
Revenue Account on the Municipalitv's
yearly budgets for use for the Municina1i-
tvs ordinary purposes, while the disposal
