Bills Vetoed.
The Governor vetoed these bills and
made the following comment:
Assembly 269, this bill proposes
to amend section ten of chapter 265,
of the laws of 1910, but the act in
question contains only two sections
the mistake makes the bill bad.
Senate 209, the notice of intention
to introduce this bill required by law
described certain territory as intend
ed to be included in the new borough
OF Keansburg. The description in the
bill now before me differs from that
contained in the published notice and
the attorney general advises that the
bill is therefore Wild.
Senate 223. In my Judgment this
bill is unconstitutional because of the
classification attempted. Second
class cities under our law include all
those having a population of between
l., 900 and 10000. Chapter los of the
laws of 1918 applies to all second class
cities and is practically the same as
this BILL providing for recorders or
police justices in all such cities. I
can see no legal reason for dividing
these cities into two classes, one
above and the other below $4,000, and
dealing differently with the recorders
or police justices therein.
1.-THE bill is also defective in detail
in the following PARTICULARS: No pro-
vision is made for fees of witnesses
to attend trials, nor for summoning
them; no provision is made for an
allegation to be made against the de-
PENDANT upon which he can be tried;
no provision is made for enforcing a
Judgment or pointing out to whom a
fine imposed shall be paid"
The Governor also vetoed House
bill No 8, which was introduced by
Assemblyman Branegan, and repeats
personal registration of voters in
| townships containing less than 5000
inhabitants.
