The Ocean County Board of Taxation
has elected George H. Irons as its secre-
tary. The old official, u. S. Grant, re-
fuses to relinquish the position, claim
ing that he is under the protection of the
civil service law. Mr.. Grant refuses to
hand over the records and papers in his
possession.
The Seaside Park Yacht club building
is being repaired and redecorated Some
alterations to the interior of the build
ing are being made. Holmes VanNote
has been reappointed steward.
Judge Peter F. DAILY, of New Bruins
wick, has been selected to sit at Toms
River today, at the trial of John
Gargare, of Lakewood, wealthy auto
mobile dealer and garage owner, who
faces seven separate indictments, each
charging him with buying stolen auto
mobile from Daniel Reilly, of New
York. These automobiles were stolen,
six of them from New York, and one
from Philadelphia, and run to Lake
wood. The theory is that there was a
conspiracy, by which dozen or more
automobiles were picked up in nearby
cities and run to Lakewood, where they
were disposed of. Prosecutor George A.
Silser, also of Middlesex county, will
assist Prosecutor Harry Newman in the
trial, and the State Motor Vehicle
Department has added its aid, together
with that of the police of Philadelphia
and New York.
The Ocean County Board of Free
holders has declared war against the
county District Court. At their meet
ing on Tuesday the freeholders, accept
ing an opinion from their solicitor, for
mer Judge Maja Leon Berry, that the
acts creating the Ocean county district
court are unconstitutional, and that
they should refuse any further to pay
bills for the maintenance of that court,
passed resolution that it would termin-
ate all contracts for court rooms for this
court, and instructing the county collect
or to honor no more salary bills or other
bills incurred in running the district
court. This is likely to start something.
When the salary bill of Judge Veeder is
refused payment, he is expected to go
into the Supreme Court and sue out
mandamus to compel its payment The
county, according to solicitor Berry, will
then plead that the law under which the
district court is created is unconstitu-
tional, and the fight will be on.

be done soon whether the system should
or should not be changed. Then the
representative guaranteed the annual
cost for gas would not exceed $780, AT
the present time it is costing about 1864
for gasoline and maintaining the plant,
keeping the fixtures in order and other
items and in addition it takes $53 worth
of water to operate the gas machine. In
connection with this subject Mr.. Esham
said he thought the county was paying
too much water rent and he suggested
that the Water Company be asked to
put the buildings on meter and he
thought that would result in a saving
The entire matter of gas and water was
referred to the committee on court house
and grounds with power to act.
The meeting then adjourned.

The contract was awarded to F. r.
LongW. G. Broadhurst Company.
A bill was presented for work done in
New Hanover township in connection
with new road. When some of the
bridges were reached, the township COM
mittee which was doing the work, went
on with the bridges without consulting
the county authorities. This work was
done in the days of the small Board.
Objection was made to the payment of
the bill because it was legacy from a
former Board and if this organization
was to pay debts contracted by its pre-
decessors there was no telling when the
end would be reached.
Mr.. Dudley, member of the small
Board said there was nothing remark
able about this bill. 1t was only a SAM
pie of what the small Board was up
against when it went into power. 1t had
to settle debts of the former Board to the
amount of about 3d. 900.
1t was finally decided that the work
in New Hanover was worth all that was
charged for it and the bill was ordered
paid.
But there were others. J. Edward
Lame presented claim for services in
BordentOwn township during the last
OliIcc uty vi Jut Sludli DOdTu 6AlSUeIce,
and Thomas j. Barrett sent in bill
which he said the road committee had
overlooked. Both of the claims were re-
ferred to the local Freebooter.
w. A. Shreve & Co. had claim for
something they had done under the
small Board but this claim was laid on
the table.
The presentation of these claims led to
quite a lengthy discussion on the
liability of the present Board for bills
contracted last year.
On request of Mr.. Loveland the law
ON the subject of oyerdrawing accounts
and expanding more money than had
been appropriated, was read.
Mr.. Jones said he thought it was up to
the committee, in looking over bills, to
get from the auditor statement of the
condition of the various funds.
Mr.. Hart said there was rule that all
bills should be in the day prior to the
meeting, but nobody seemed to paw any
attention to this order and bills were
brought in on the morning of the meet
ing and were hurriedly gone over.
Mr.. Thackara said the bills were sent
in on time but the fault was with the
committees-theyd did not appear. Mr..
Thackara sat down with thud when
MIR. Jones called attention to the fact
that Thackara was member of one OF
the committees and never put in an APP
pearance. Thackara said it did not paw
him to come over just for the purpose OF
looking over bills.
The whole matter was settled by the
adoption of a resolution to the effect that
bills must be sent to the committees on
the day prior to the meeting of the
Board or they would have to lay over for
month. 1t was also ordered that al
bills for work contracted by the previous
Board be filed by the auditor and held
until the end of the year when arrange
ments would be made to settle them out
of unexpended funds or an appropriation
would be made for that purpose
In line with this discussion Auditor
Tilton presented report of the appro-
priations and the expenditures up to the
end of April. 1t was as follows:

Solicitor Rigg gave notice that two

one by Samuel Roberts to determine his
standing as Road Supervisor and one by
Edward Mckinley, who claimed 5000

of defective bridge in Palmyra town.

had filed an answer and the case will be
tried before Judge Carlow at Camden
In the other case Mckinley had been
offered $50 which he refused, so it was
thought suit should go on. The matters
were left in the hands of Mr.. Rigg.

Board of Freeholders.

The regular meeting of the Board of
Freeholders was held in the court house
on Wednesday and all the members were
present, especially before dinner. After
eating hearty meal some of them evil
IDENTIFY did not feel like doing work and
they failed to come back But as the
principal business, that of paying bills,
had been attended to there was not much
use in some of them paying any more
attention to business.
One of the first incidents of the session
was the introduction of Col. f. A. Stew
ems, State Road Commissioner. He had
come to Mount Holly on some business
and was seen by County Supervisor Nc
Farland, who piloted him to the Board
room where the Commissioner was in
troduced to the members.
In considering bills the first to provoke
discussion was that of John Throckmor-
ton, ST., superintendent of burial of
soldiers and sailors. He had discovered
that recently enacted law gave him a
salary of $500 per year. The Board had
been paying him $50 per year, and in
order to get the money to make up the
difference it was necessary to transfer
some from the incidental fund, but that
is always easy and MIR. Throckmorton
got the sum due him from the first
of January.
When the personal bills were paid that
of Joseph A. Couples was approved
among the rest. There is a question
whether Couples is a member of the
Board. He realized the situation and
requested that his bill be withdrawn and
laid over until the next regular meeting
by which time he hopes to have some
decision upon his eligibility to serve
Mr.. Joyce, despite the fact that Coup
les himself asked to have his bill hand
ed back, said he could not see any reason
why it should not be paid and wanted
the money handed over.
Mr.. Couples, however, insisted that
his bill be laid over, and as he was the
one interested his request was granted.
