our friends of the opposition while
the tax budget is being made up,
and we are blamed for granting their
demands when campaign time comes
around. / haven't footed these col
umns, because they are by no means
complete, but they give you an idea
of how much extravaganza there Is
in these appropriations. l think you
will agree with me that none OF
them is over-generous, even IL they
have increased somewhat.
"Since | have been in office we have
issued a good many long-term bonds
for nublic purposes Leaving out
those issued on account OF the water
department, which Is able to pay all
its interest and sinking fund charges
out of its receipts, find that the total
issue since | have been in office Is
S13 sos. 200. OF course, a considerable
sum in bonds has been retired during
the same time, but the bonded indebt-
edness Of the city shows quite a
marked Increase
Bonds for Worthy Purposes.
Now If those bonds had been issued
for unworthy purposes, they would
form the basis of fair charge
against the administration, but the
contrary is the case. Between five
and six million dollars have been
given for the schools; the Passaic
Valley trunk sewer has already taken
almost three million and "a half dol
lars; we have given 100000 for the
purpose of extending the City Hos
pital: S350,000 for fire and police sta
tons; 100000 for new market, and
$500, 900 for meadow reclamation and
docks.
Ill "a l>et
and Fairgrounds, what l consider to
be somewhat small amounts for such
purposes.
VERY few of these bond issues, as
recollect 1t, have been criticised at
the time of issuance Most of them
have been regarded as providing alb
Isolutely necessary works or institu-
lions for the progress of the city
But, of course, interest and sinking
fund charges necessarily increase
when bonds are issued, and it seems
that we are to be blamed because
such Is the situation.
II wonder why our opponents, in
bringing these charges, do not specify
just what things they consider to be
extravaganza. I wonder why 1t Is that
the largest single item of increase Is
not mentioned by them, or. If men
toned, is put In such way that 1t
will not be noticed.
This is the matter OF our yearly
payment to the county government,
over which, as you know, we have no
control This year we are paying to
the county of Essex something like a
million and a quarter dollars more
than we did in 1907. For this in
creased demand Oh the city by the
county the city government should
not be held responsible"

LOCAL LAWYERS
FOR CONFERENCE
Several to Attend Washington
Session of the American
Bar Association.

A large number of local lawyers
are preparing to attend the annual
convention OF the American Bar As
ISOLATION and the conference or the
commissioners on uniform State laws,
which will open in washington next
week. The conference will start next
Wednesday and the convention the
following day.
President Wilson will deliver the
address of welcome and Senator Eli

Parker Edward Q. Keasbey, Chaun-
cey G, Parker, Frank s. Bergen and
John r, Hardin. A number Of local
attorneys will attend the convention
of the bar association.
In aims and purpose both Of these
organizations are closely animated.
The Uniform Laws Commission had
its origin in a committee appointed
over twenty-five years ago by the
American Bar Association to discuss
the need of greater uniformity in
State laws. AS a result OF its action
the Legislature of New York state
created a board of commissioners in
1889 and invited the other states to
meet to consider the subjects upon
which uniformity was desirable.
Every one of the States is now a
member of the commission. The gov
ernors Of the various States appoint
the commissioners who usually serve
for five years. AS its name implies
it's object is to bring into harmony
and workable simplicity the con-
fiicting laws of the different States,
particularly on those matters which
vitality affect everyday business and
social affairs.
During the twenty-four years of its
existence the commission has adopted
and presented to the different state
| legislatures ten uniform acts. In the
| order OF their adoption with the num-
Der of States that have placed them
upon their statute books they are:
Negotiable instruments. forty sl1
States; warehouse receipts, thirty
! States; bills of lading, eleven States
sales of goods, eleven States; certifi.
Gates Of stock, nine States; divorce
three States: child labor. family de
sertion, six States; probate of foreign
Wills. nine states, and marriage eva
sion, three States.
Among the important questions u
be brought before the commissioner:
this year will be those on working
mems compensation. Incorporation
partnership, cold storage, as forming
part of the pure food regulations ant
the advisabiiity of Incorporating int
the marriage and divorce act tn,
principles of eugenics.
For FIVE years the commission hai
been working on a uniform incorpor
alton act and the committee has JUS
announced that 1t has prepared uni
form act which 1t believes will
answer the purpose of safety to tn,
public and Justice to the corpora

He was sixty-six years of age, an
Italian, and had held numerous i'm
portant offices.
Cardinal Ferrata was born in 1847
at Montefianscone, Italy. His work
as papal nuncio at Paris and as
project of the congregation of bish-
ops in Rome stamped him as a
finished diplomat.
He presided over the eucharistlc

ark during his administration of eight
years as its chief executive, presented

TO,
The Mayors Address.
s.'I want TO say few words to you
tohight about the charge which the
opposition has made of extravaganza
against this administration" began
the mayor in his general address.
.1Of course, this is a very familiar
charge to bring against those who
are in office, and where an actual in
crease of expense is shown the charge
can only be properly answered by go
ing into some detail as to why the
extra expense was incurred. SO |
am going to make few comparisons
tonight, showing the difference be-
between expenditures in 1907, the first
year / served as mayor, and in the
current Year.
~ purposcly omit from this COM
parison the expenses of the police and
fire departments. The salaries of the
rank and file of these departments,
constituting the bulk OF their cost,
are fixed by law, adopted by the peo-
pie. and If we are responsible for any
large increase in the cost of these
departments it is because we have
added to the police and fire forces. /
think the additions we have made
have been justified.
